WINDSOR PARK

Plans to Win Readers Failed to Prolong Their Lives.

A French magazine writer who has been looking into the subject of freak newspapers thinks that one of the most remarkable of these was the Luminaria, published in Madrid. The ink with which it was printed contain ed a small percentage of phosphorous, so that the letters were visible and the paper could be read in the dark. Next after this he rinds remarkable the case of the Regal, printed with an ink guaranteed noupoisonous on thin sheets of dough. After absorbing all the information the sheet con

tained one could eat it, thus deriving from it nourishment for mind and body. The publisher of a new Parisian journal, Le Bien 'Etre, promised to all subscribers for" 40 consecutive years a pension and free burial. In spite of the inducement subscribers were so few that the paper died in a month. It was followed shortly after by a paper called Le Mouchoir, the handkerchief. It was printed on paper such as the so-called Japanese napkins are made of and might be used in case the reader forgot or lost his handkerchief. It did not last long. At two different French seacoast resorts newspapers called the Couriei des Balgneurs (Bathers' Courier) and La Naiade, which doesn't need translation, were printed on waterproof paper. Tho inducement was that the bather could take his paper into the sea with him and read it while he en joyed his bath. The climax of utility seems to be reached in Norway, where some ot the newspapers used so tough a quality of paper that it can be cut into strips and twisted into serviceable rope when the news is all read.

While the people on the planet cf Mars are supposed to be vastly superior in every way to the inhabitants of this earth, according to Prof. Lest er F. Ward, of Brown university, they have only about 1,000,000 more years to live, while the people of this world are only beginning their allotted space of 24,000,000 years. Thirst will kill the Martians, the professor says, and even now it is dry time perpetually up there. Most of the waters that once covered every thing have vanished in the same way that this planet is all the while losing hydrogen, one of the two components of water. This process has proceeded so far on Mars that most of the liquid refreshment of its inhabitants, assuming it has such, is confined to narrow circles about the two poles. It is made available for .the , uses of the Martians only by means of an intricate network of canals. "On Mars we can, as it were, see with our own eyes a race of vast antiquity and supreme wisdom, clinging desperately to the orb that bore it, half gasping for breath, and hoarding every drop of its precious water, but doomed in the relatively near future to face the lingering death of a dying world." This gloomy picture, Prof. Ward

says, is in store for the people of this

earth, but there is no need of worry at

the preseDt time, as it is 24,000,000

years distant.

When Did You Oil Your Watch? When did you oil 3Tour watch last?

Never? You may rememberwheu you lubricated your sewing machine, type

writer, lawn mower or grindstone within a year, probably but 3'our watch you never oiled, that you can remember. Yet in a period of eighteen months the balance wheel turns on

its axis 13,900,800,000 times. Expert

watchmakers say that a watch should be thoroughly cleaned and oiled every

eighteen months. Many persons wear

a watch for years, winding it up each night, and never oil it. Watches are instruments of uncertain age; some run indefinitely, keeping accurate time, without need of repairs. As a matter of fact, nothing is so neglected as this small, delicate and useful Instrument North American.

terms on which she gave instruction replied: "Not understanding the question, I answer thus: With a view of reading the Bible." We have the authority of the late Lord Shaftesbury for the statement that one of these poor creatures, being asked if she gave moral Instruction to her scholars, replied, "No, I can't afford it at 3 shillings a week." A more amusing answer, however, was that of the teacher who was asked w-hether proper attention was paid to the morals of the boys under his care. His answer was that "they did not teaefh morals there, as they belonged to the girls' department." Westminster Gazette.

B!nd Indians. One of the mysteries of Mexico is

presented by the Maya Indians, who Inhabit the Sierra Madre mountains in the lower part of Souora. They have fair skins, blue eyes and light hair, and students of ethnology have always been puzzled to account for them. There is a tradition, however, that these Indians are the descendants of the crew and passengers of a Swedish vessel wrecked on the Mexican coast centuries before Columbus discovered the new world. But this tradition is founded on nothing more substantial than a folklore tale current among them that their ancestors came over the big salt water hundreds of moons ago. A Frog of Peculiar Habits. South America has a frog of peculiar habits. Dwelling in the virgin forests, at the tops of the highest trees, it chooses as a site for its nursery some hollow stump and then proceeds to line it with resin procured from trees in the neighborhood. This lining serves to catch and hold the rainwater, with which it quickly becomes, filled. As soon as this takes place the eggs are laid therein, and here they undergo development into tadpoles. How the resin is collected is a mystery, nor is it yet known how the separate pieces become welded to form the water tight basin necessary to Insure the safety of the treasures deposited therein.

The Goat's Change of Faith. Near a small Baptist church-not far

One day, finding the church door open, the goat wandered inside and browsed around among cushions and books, much to the detriment of those articles. Tho pastor chanced to catch the animal at his mischief and lost no time In going to the owner to complain. "You will have to keep that goat tied up," began the minister, "lie went into my church Just now and" But we was allowed to proceed no further. The old Irishman held up both hands in amazement. "Wint into your church, did he? Thin I can't be responsible for him no more, th' ongrateful baste. If that goat has turned Protestant I wash me hands of him." New York Times.
