Of Course This Didn’t Happen in Real Life

Once upon a time. A man Got wrecked upon a ship. The other passengers bad all left. When the alarm was sounded.. He probably had taken a bit too much. Well. Anyway te fgund himsgelf. Left with plenty of food and water. But no companions. Of any sort. But a number of current magazines. Being . intelligent. He realized these.. Would in time give out. So he restricted himseclf. To only so much a day. However he was not rescued. As soon as he had expected. And he began to go over them again: Still no ship in sight. Time passed.” He forced himself to review the tattered .periodieals. ‘Though he knew them from cover to cover. They palled. Leost even the effect of dis traction. At last in despair. He seized all of them. Crying. “Heaven have mercy on me. There is nothing left. But to read the sfories!"—Eygene Case, in Los Angeles Times.,

Curious Storage

There i 3 practiced in Kashmir, in India, a novel method of putting fodder up for winter use. The country lies in & valley among the Himalayas. The chief industry of the people con: sists of raising fine wool and in making this inw fabrics which have earried the nume of the country all over fthe world. A curious custom in some places is that of bhanging quantities of hay up #mong the branches of trees. Why this is done is more than the stranger can guess, and he is much puzzled unti. some native informs him (hat in winter the snow lies five and six yards in depth, and that the supplies of hay, which as he now looks &t ther seem only as if intended ,for giraffes, are then easily reached by the flocks of sheep which abound there, .

Beautiful Flame

It may not be generally known away from the seaside that a vessel's old shenthing, which has once lLieen covered with yellow metal or copper, at the expiration of a long voyage makes a most beautiful flame of different colors wien burned in-an open fireplace or grate. This is caused by the sheuathing coming in contact with copper pails and other composition with which the sheathing is govered. Years ago this wood was considered worthless and was usually given away to poor people for fuel. But of late years it has been used quite extensively in New Dedford. Mass., and vieinity. T It is placed upon other wood or coal, when the flames from the burn ing of the old sheathing presen! g beautiful sight. producing ditterent colors, which shoot forth from the copper nail holes.

Large Island Unexplored

The fifth, and possibly -the thirc. largest island in the world, is alimost unknown.. It is Baflin island in the Arctie cirele, and its area is estimat ed at frome 200,000 te 300,000 square iniles. Tt is owned by Canada. The Norsewen probably knew it in the year 1000. In 15764 when Martin f'ra bisher was seekipng the Northwest pas sage, 100 English colonists actually tried to make their homes on its bleuk southeastern coast. Some day, perhaps, when the world becomes overcrowded and modern conveniences make a cold climate livable, Baffin island may be the home of a nation.=—Capper’s Weekly. o
