The Gorgons
The Gorgons were creatures of Greek
mythology, mentioned by Homer and
Euripides as being of peculiarly abhor
rent aspect. Their hair was composed
' of serpents, their bodies covered with
j scales and girdled with reptiles with
I heads erect, vibrating ttheir tongues
I threateningly, while the hands of the
Gorgons, adorned with sharp talons,
were of brass The gaze of the mon
sters was deadly, all upon whom they
J fixed their eyes being turned to stone.
One of the three terrible sisters was
! conquered and beheaded by Perseus,
and as he took flight in the air en
i route for Ethiopia, holding the severed
head in his hands, the drops of blood
j Which fell from it became serpents,
which ever after infested the sands of
; Lybia.
Notes About Birds
A peculiar characteristic albout birds
is that the young of those that build
j nests in trees are blind when hatched,
are naked, unable to walk and are fed
.by the parent bird. Among the wad
! ing birds the young can walk, swim
and pick up food immediately upon
leaving the egg. With birds, as with
higher animals, the females seem to
i fancy bright colors and music; hence
Mother Nature usually ornaments the
head, neck and tails of the males that
I they may find mates more readily. The
male birds usually excel in musi<T also.

Ancient Silk
A book published in Japan 1,000
years ago notes that at that time good
j silk was already produced in twenty
five provinces of that country.
BRAZILIAN PLOT REVEALED
Sailors on Battleships Involved in
Scheme to Oast Governor ot
Rio Janeiro State
By Auociattxl Press.
Rio Janeiro, March B.—Discovery of
a plot which is said to have had as its
object the ousting of Nilo Pecanha as
Ooverhor of the State or Kio Janeiro,
has resulted in several arrests. Among
those involved are sailors 011 battle
ships 'Minas tieraes and Sao Paulo. A
rigid inquiry is being conducted and it
is believed the movement is similar to
the naval mutiny of 1* 0. Official an
nouncement has been made that no of
ficers nre involved in the conspiracy,
which is considered ''a complete fail
ure. ''
Richard Kirk, a Brazilian aviator li
censed by the French Aero Club, was
killed when his machine*overturned at
a great height while he was reconnoit
ering over a rebel camp in the State ot
Parana.
Serious disorders attributed to eco
nomic and political causes were reported
in Brazil in 1913 and early in 1814,
bu* -omparatively quiet was believed
to have been restored in March of the
latter year. The naming of a new cab
inet caused rioting in Rio Janeiro in
November of last year, but nothing lias
been heard of serious difficulties since
that time. There has been no recent
mention of disturbances in the State
of Parana. Most of the trouble last
year was in Rio Janeiro and in the
State of Ceara.
Sailors on the battleships Minas
Geraes and Soa Paulo mutinied on No
vember 22, 1914, murdered four of their
officers and bombarded Rio Janeiro. The
mutineers sent the government a strong

Howard's speci fie is reduced after a few
days' use, and the cure is soon complete
