THE UNEXPLORED. Many Region* of the Earth Still Remain a Mystery. i Many years will elapse before any other continent is as well mapped as * Europe, and perhaps the era of perfected mapping all over the world may never come, because surveys are very expensive and the five other continents ■ have far greater expanses than Europe of comparatively worthless lands that do not call for the most detailed and refined cartography. But a large amount of pioneer work still invites the explorer, for many of the unknown areas have much territorial extent. In the Amazon basin, for example, three of these regions are each much larger than all of our New England states. One unknown area in north--1 west Alaska is nearly as large as New England, and the Sahara has two areas in black that are each twice as large and another three times as large as New England. i Asia still has several of these vast mysterious spaces, and the solid chunk of the unknown in New Guinea, the largest island in the world excepting Greenland, would swallow up New England and leave a black border all around it—Cyrus C. Adams In Hari per's. "Leaves." To him who is penetrated by true principles even the briefest precept is sufficient, and common precept to remind him that he should be free from grief and fear. For example, says Homer: Leaves —some the wind scatters on the ground— So is the race of men.

Leaves also are thy children, and leaves, too, are they who cry out as if they were worthy of credit and bestow their praise or. on the contrary, curse or secretly blame and sneer, and leaves In like manner are those who shall receive and transmit a man’s fame to aftertimes, for all such things as these ‘’are produced in the season of spring," as the poet says. Then the wind casts them down. Then the forest produces 1 other leaves in their places. But a ; brief existence is common to all things, | and yet thou avoidest and pursuest all things as if they would be eternal. A ' little time, and thou shalt close thy eyes, and him who has attended thee to thy grave another soon will lament —Marcus Aurelius. Curious Nesting Habits. Many birds in their nesting habits have accommodated themselves to the advance of civilization. Thus the barn ' and cliff swallows, which once built i under overhanging cliffs and tn caves, now place their nests on the rafters and beneath the eaves of our barns. The chimney swift which originally placed its nest on the inside of hollow j trees, now uses our chimneys tor that purpose. The purple martin, once nesting exclusively in holes in trees, will now In many sections of the country use nothing but the bird boxes which i kind hearted men have erected. Handicapped. "Too bad about Keeue. There’s a fund of good humorous stuff in the antics of the would be society people in his new neighborhood.” “Well, he’s just the fellow to take advantage of that for his funny sketches." "Yes, but his wife is trying to get into society there,”—Catholic Standard and Times. FOR SALE—Cigar wagon, with electric light and storm front on, set double buggy harness, set single buggy harness, and a cutting box. D. H. Hunsicker.
