TUe well known brown pigment call ed sepia 1s obtained from u ten armed octopus found principally In the Med iterranean and more especially at the head of the Adriatic sea, where It is caught by the natives for food. The sepia is contained In a bag and Is really the black fluid of which we have ail read as being discharged by the creature to cover its escape. Some naturalists say that the fluid is brown ish, which becomes more credible when we know that this is the source of sepia. The pigment is really a powder which dissolves in water. Its strength may be estimated by the fact that it will color 1,000 times its awn built. When the octopus has been killed the Back or bag is removed and dried to prevent putrefaction. The sepia is treated with ammonia or caustic soda, washed and dried. It is one of the most durable of paints, except when fully exposed to the fierce rays of the sun, and an even surface can be ob tained with it more easily than with most paints. Sepia has been obtained from a fossil cuttlefish thousands of years old and found to be quite good for paint. The Change From Black to Red. "See that little woman who just went out?" remarked a Fourth avenue milliner to a customer. "Noticed that red hat, did you? Well, as a milliner and a person whose business it is to study the different characteristics of women I have watched her for two years. It has been a kind of study of the 'evolutions of a widow.' "Two years ago she came to me, re cently bereaved, and had me make her a hat oi deepest black. She was bro ken hearted and declared she would never again take an interest in the pretty things that women like to wear. A year ago she came again. " 'Don't you think I might have the least bit of white in my new hat?' she asked. " 'Yes,' I said; 'I think you might.' | and the hat was made. Three months I later she came for another hat, and j she stood for a little touch of laven- I der. Next she had a big white plume, i and last week I made her that red hat. It just shows what time will do in lifting up a heart bowed down."— Louisville Times. The Releaser. If he hadn't been a dreadful bore and the hour wasn't so late it is quite possible the lovely girl would have refrained from the exercise of a stra tegic scheme, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "Hark!" she whispered as ho paused in the midst of a long winded de scription of his camping outfit. | "What is it?" he whispered in re turn. She smiled reassuringly. "It's only papa, lie must bo oiling the releaser." "And what is the releaser?" "It's one of papa's ingenious schemes. Every night, at exactly 11 o'clock, ho pulls up a brass chain that releases our brindle bull pup from his annex adjoining the kitchen; that's all." And she laughed merrily. The caller glanced at the clock on the mantel. It indicated 10:57. "I find I must go,"he said in a slightly hurried manner. "And good night." Punishment For Perjury. Terjury is a crime more severely punished in Germany than in any oth er country in the world. Even an ap parently trivial misstatement under oath carries a sentence of ten years in prison. Excepting murder, there are few crimes that carry as heavy a pen ally as perjury. The German theory Is that the entire system of jurispru dence rests on the respect for an oath administered under the forms of law and that this must be strictly guarded in order to secure the punishment of other crimes and insure justice in civil cases. Germany stands at one extreme and the United States at the other. Fewer people are punished in the United States for false swearing hi the witness box than in any other country.—London Telegraph.
