The Monster Uiplodocxis.
Dr. Andrew* Wilson speaks of that hu cxliru't reptile, the iliplodoeus, who^e bones Andrew Carnegie present ed to the South Kensington museum in London as a "dragon." "If we could imagine it restored,7' says Dr. Wilson, "we should be tempted to imagfne that the dragon legends of old had some foundation in fact. As a rule, these creatures—dinosaurs, as they are called —were huge, kulky animals. Mr. Car negie's specimen has been estimated to have possessed a length in life of about seventy feet. The diplodocus, with regard to its personal characteristics. appears to have possessed a head of very moderate size indeed, considered relatively to the animal's bulk. Its jaws are weak, and its teeth are borne by the front of the jaws only. That it fed on soft vegetable matter would therefore appear to be as inference fairly warranted by the facts, yet. like the vegetarian elephant, it may have been capable of tierce onslaughts enough in its day. To feed on plants is not always commensurate with mildness of temper, as every vicious horse testifies. We may further believe that the diplodocus, if not a swimmer, at least had aquatic habits.
•••. .'.arwiMaking Marbles.
Germany maintains a monopoly or making stone marbles in spite of various efforts made to wrest the trade a way. In the marble and agate quarries there are innumerable chips and bits of stone from the butting of the large blocks, and this refuse is broken into cubes about the size of a marble
COUUtry I experienced worker produces these
cubes of stone at an incredible speed and with remarkable uniformity. When about a bushel are ready they are dropped between a grooved bedstone and a revolving runner. Water is kept constantly supplied, and in half an hour the stones are turned out perfect spheres. With abundant water power the cost Is slight, as a couple of men can keep a dozen stones supplied and the raw material costs nothing at all. In other countries the cost of preparing the blanks eats up the profits, and competition with the (Jerman made product is imjjossible.
The Evolution of the Pen.
The patent office at Washington has a collection of pens that illustrates the difficulties with which men had to contend before they found a suitable instrument with which to write. There are the styluses used by the ancient, the instruments for writing on wax tablets, one end sharp like an awl, the other flat like a paper cutter. Tbere are the brushes used by the Japanese and Chinese and quills of every variety, together with an infinite number of steel pens. But the most curious are qpme quill pens with steel points. They were made In an effort to do away with the constant necessity for the mending of the pen, a process that few could perform properly and that everybody hated. The effort was very Ingenious, but unsuccessful, because the points could not be made to
The Bow and Arrow.
The first mention of the bow and arrow is found in the Book of Genesis, where it is written that Ishmael, the son of Abraham, "dwelt in the wilderness and became an archer." "A bow shot," too, is mentioned as a measure of distance. In the sculptured slates
frequently oc-
cur, and the bow seems to have been a weapon in the Assyrian and Persian armies.
