Hy. 8775 IJ Duckbill Dinosaurs Able to Grow Teeth as Needed Duckbill dinosaurs werent at all like ducks when it came to the mat ter of teeth. They had about the finest dental mills any animal in the world has ever possessed, according to C. W. Gilmore, curator of vertebrate paleontology at the United ' States National museum. Two thousand teeth, ranged in rows both horizontal and vertical, formed a fair average equipment for one of them. But it was all right, even for the creatures that inhabited the earth at the same time. Duckbill dinosaurs were quite harmless, feeding entirely on plants. Much more formidable were the fewer teeth in the Jaws of the tyrannosaurs; their apikea, shaped like barracuda teeth but ten times bigger, were terrible tearera of flesh. To get back to the duckbills ; thry not only had these batteries cl many hundreds of teeth ready for immediate action at all times, but they .had plenty more where they came from. If a tooth was worn out or broken, it was immediately replaced. Back of all the teeth were 'tooth buds ready to grow new ones; so a duckbill never had to worry about a toothless old age. If the tyrannosaurs let him get old, he 'till had his full set of teeth to the end. A much bigger dinosaur, also a plant-eateyet with fewer and weaker teeth, was Diplod ocus, of .which the National museum has a fine skeleton. Dippy's' teeth were all in the front end of his Jaws, and they were slender and rakelike.' lie had no real chewing teeth at all. lit is therefore conjectured that Diplodocus raked up soft vegetation from the swamps and shallow lakes where he fallowed and gulped the mess down whole, to be ground up in his gizzard by the bushel 'or so of stones he habitually kept I inside for that purpose. six-in- . i r, ; i Darts, a craze for which is sweeping England, has arrived socially. Formerly identified with the cheapest bar of the corner pub and men downing beer between throw's, the game now has been played, and praised, by the king and queen. It already was the most popular indoor game in Great Britain, by a wide margin. The patronage of their majesties, however, caused a further spurt. Darts immediately became the fastest selling of all games during the Christmas season; manufacturers have received so many orders they are three months behind on deliveries. Brewers have not said whether royal patronage of darts has helped the sale of beer, but the brewing industry fathered darts from the beginning as a stimulus to business. It is an almost invariable custom in pubs, each with one or more dart boards, for the loser or losers to buy a round of drinks after each game. Brewers organize competition in darts and award handsome prizes. In London alone darts contests organized by only one brewery drew 117,000 entries. Brewers, and managers of pubs, organize darts teams which play first in one pub and then in another, thus distributing ' the business. It was at Slough social center that King George and Queen Elizabeth made the acquaintance of darts. When they looked in the games room, three games of darts were in progress. The queen commended a good shot and expressed a desire to try. A player immediately handed her (hfM ilapfs Where do I stand? What do I do?" she asked, and was told. . She threw three darts for a total score of 21, then handed the darts to the king and asked him to try. The king scored 19 with three darts, throwing with his left hand. He is a southpaw at most things except writing. The king remarked that his wife had beaten him, and added: Darts is a very good sport. The queen said she had never played before. St. Augustine, Fla. Excavation work being done in connection with the restoration of Fort Marion is bringing to light an abundance of historical relics of Spanish and Indian lore. Workers at the site have found highly decorated pipes, Indian pottery and other materials buried since construction of the nations oldest existing military stronghold in 1672. The relics will be displayed in connection with public educational exhibits planned to outline the historical background of old fortifications. Fort Marion, known during the period of European domination as Castillo de San Marcos, was established by presidential proclamation as a national monument in 1924. ll Constructed of masonry, the fort is in excellent preservation. It was visited last year by more than a quarter-millio- n persons, the national park service reports. sea-she- ch Youth Hostels Now Span State of Pennsylvania Philadelphia. Modeled after the Youth Hostels of Europe, there is a series of ten hostels ranging from Philadelphia west to the Manada gap and the Appalachian trail for the enjoyment of citizens who wish to become "autumn vagabonds." The Horse Shoe Trail Club, Inc., founder of the hostels, has established accommodations for hikers, horsemen and cyclists who roam over the Pennsylvania countryside. The hostel system is similar to that already in use in New England. Rates for sleeping quarters are as low as 25 cents a night. . St. John Catchpool, director of the English hostel movement, pointed out on .a visit to America recently that if the young people of the world could be brought together in common enjoyment of nature, everyone would benefit. Elgin, Ili. Bob, a yellow and black mountain roller canary owned by Mrs. May Simon, has reached the venerable age of 27. The ordinary life span of canaries, Mrs. Simon said, ii 10 to 13 years. HUMAN HANDS DEFY OCTOPUS IN LAIR Lights by Expert Describes Technique in Catching Them. of FRIDAY, FEBRUARY New York CUT FLOWERS LL STEVENSON - POTTED PLANTS and CORSAGES yarns occasionally turn up in the lost and found departments of the citys large hotels. For instance there was the package with a rubber band wrapped around it which a Waldorf-Astori- a houseman found while disposing of a pile of rubbish. Opening it, he discovered a pearl necklace and several pieces of novelty jewelry. He turned in his find and it was promptly restored to its owner, a Junior Leaguer who had been a guest at tire hotel. While there, she found herself with a very important engagement and without her favorite evening wrap. A wire to her mother brought the wrap in sufficient time. The mother failed to report, however, that she had enclosed the pearls and Jewelry in the box and in the daughters haste, they escaped her eye. The box was thrown out and eventually reached the scrap heap where the houseman found it. In another case, while Waldorf employees were sorting soiled linen before it was sent out for laundering, they came on a beautiful platinum wrist watch, set with diamonds. The watch, valued at $1,200, was of course returned to its owner. How it happened to be tossed into a basket along with soiled linen was not explained. Key West, Fla.

Although it was usually accompanied by unexplained cases of poisoning which often led to the death of the individual, this substance continued in popular use for many centuries. Soot was used to darken the eyebrows, and rouge was commonly made of vegetable, substances, including seaweed and mulberry. The. toilet of the Greek lady began when she put on her face a mask of meal which remained there all night and in the morning was washed off with milk. It was a beauty mask, writes Virginia S. Eifert in National History, guaranteed to remove blemishes and restore ' waning beauty. After the morning milk bath, the white lead powdfr was put on, and then the eyebrows. These latter were sometimes false. As the Roman writer Petronius said: '"The lady takes her eyebrows False or not, out pf a little box. the lady fixed her eyebrows, submitted herself to the hairdressers fingers, was dressed and heavily perfumed, and then was ready for the day, much of which had already passed in beautification.
