Two Cnrloua Talc.-;. In 1875 h miserly old lady was found dead in a fence corner a few miles south of Blaise, France. When found she was lying flat on her back, with one arm around her head, grasping a sunbonnet. Since that time not a spear of grass has grown on the spot where her body lay. The outlines of the form, limbs, etc., are as plain as though they had been made by a person lying down in snow or in plastic clay. Just back of the great British museum, London, there is a little plot of ground known the world over as "tho field of the forty footsteps." The old legend concerning the place is to the effect that two brothers, in the time of the Duke of Monmouth's rebellion, took different sides and that they eugaged In a deadly duel on this little plot of ground. They stood off twenty steps from a certain line and at the word met at that line and killed' each other with knives. The forty impressions made by their feet while advancing were ever afterward bare of grass and were still pointed out 123 years ago at the time when the lot was covered by a large stone building.

Metals. Mercury, of course, is fluid at all ordinary temperatures. Of the metals which we commonly regard as solid, lead can be made to flow with great ease. If by hydraulic pressure it Is forced into a cylinder with a hole In tho side of It It will, when the cylinder Is full, flow out of the hole in a solid, barlike stream. The harder metals, as gold and sliver, obviously undergo slight fluxion movements in the process of coining, as iron is not perfectly rigid. In drawing out a bar of It Into wire the change of form compels the particles of the metal to slide or shear over each other, just as in the flow of a liquid. So great are the pressures that can be applied by modern mechanical science that even steel can be compelled to change Its shape without fracture, and all 6uch changes Imply fluxion In the metal.

MINOT LEDGE LIGHTHOUSE. The First Ob Was Swept Away Wltai Ita Oeeapnittt. Ttv? first lighthouse on Minot's ledge was 1 uilt In 1848. It was an octagonal tower resting on the tops of eight wrought iron piles eight inches in diameter and sixty feet high, with their bases sunk five feet in the rock. These piles were braced together in many ways, and, as they offered less surface to the waves than a solid structure, this lighthouse was considered by all authorities upon the subject to be exceptionally strong. Its great test came In April, 1851. On the 14th of that month, two keepers being in the lighthouse, an easterly gale set in, steadily increasing in force. People on shore, and no doubt the keepers themselves, watched the heavy seas sweep harmlessly through the network of piles beneath the house and feared no harm. On the 15th, however, the wind and sea had greatly increased and the waves were flung higher and higher toward that tower in the air. Yet all thought they surely could not reach sixty feet above the ledge. That night was one of keen anxiety, for the gale still Increased, and all through that dreadful driving storm and darkness the faithful keepers were at their posts, for the light burned brightly. On Wednesday, the lGth, the gale bad become a hurricane, and when at times the tower could be seen through the mists and sea drift It seemed to bend to the shock of the waves. At 4 o'clock that afternoon an ominous proof of the fury of the waves on Minot's ledge reached the shore, a platform which had been built between the piles only seven feet below the floor of the keepers' room. The raging seas then were leaping fifty feet in the air. Would they reach ten feet higher, for If so the house and the keepers were doomed? Nevertheless, when darkness set in the light shone out as brilliantly as ever. But the gale seemed, if possible, then to Increase. What agony those two men must have suffered! How that dreadful abode must have swayed In the Irresistible hurricane, and trembled at each crashing sea! The poor unfortunates must have known that if those seas, leaping alwaj-s higher and higher, reached their house It would be flung down into the ocean and they would be buried with it beneath the waves. To those hopeless, terrified watchers the entombing sea came at last. At 1 o'clock In the morning the lighthouse bell was heard by those on shore to give a mournful clang, and the light was extinguished. It was the funeral knell of two patient heroes. Next day there remained on the rock only eight Jagged iron stumps.

How Fatigue la Canned. The fatigue felt after muscular exertion Is chiefly due to the formation within the muscles themselves of certain nitrogenous poisons which are the result of chemical action going on and which have a paralyzing action on the muscular fibers. These poisons are

formed by the breaking up of certain reserve materials which exist in the muscles without actually forming an essential portion of them. When these reserve materials are thus split up they give out energy which may be available as a source of heat or as a cause of motion. They accumulate In the tissues of persons who lead sedentary lives, and when such people take much exercise they are very liable to an attack of gout or feverish prostration, owing to. the sudden accumulation within the blood of too many waste products for the kidneys to remove at once. The immunity from fatigue possessed by those who are continually exercising is due to the fact that these reserved materials have been gradually removed during the course of training and little remains capable of producing gouty poisons when much exercise Is taken. ...

The Critical Ace. It is calculated that the amount of heat given off by the humau body within twenty-four hours would be sufficient, if concentrated, to bring a nine inch cube of steel to a white beat. It is this heat which literally burns up the body, and the very first day that a man ceases to renew the tissues by taking food he loses about half a pound or a pound in weight. Brain workers give oil a greater amount of heat than physical workers; hence they are more liable to collapse. After overwork they are obliged to lie up till they can obtain more capital in other words, they have been consumed by the fire of the body at a quicker rate than it takes nature to supply a quantity of fresh tissue and muscle. The ages of twenty-one, twenty-eight, thirty-five and forty-two are the most critical periods of a person's lifetime, for at about these ages nature will have fitted the body out with new raw materials, which may or may not si and the test of the person's ever changing habits of life. . , ..... The Chone Tree. Chone Is the name given by the Kanakas to a tree which flourishes in New Caledonia. It reaches a height of forty feet and puts forth beautiful white flowers, having a perfume like that of jasmine. The chone Is the Cerbera manghas of the botanist and belongs to the family of the apocynaceae. It yields a milky Juice, like the India rubber tree, which when evaporated leaves a black gum. that softens in boiling water, like gutta percha. It is Impermeable, like gutta percha, but has the advantage of dissolving In petroleum. The solution painted or floated on wood and evaporated leaves a thin layer of the gum. Impervious to water. Leather impregnated with the gum can remain in water for hours without becoming moist Moreover, it makes an excellent water proof varnish for boots when It is dissolved In essence of turpentine.

Plm la China. v A Peking correspondent says: "It is no uncommon sight to see twelve or thirteen enormous fat pigs, with their legs tied, huddled close together having a ride In a Chinese cart with some sort of light cargo on top of them and a man sitting on the cargo. The pigs are silent, and consistently one would think they should not be objects for the action of the Society For the Prevention of Cruelty tm Anlmalg. The fact Is that the animals are too fat and lary to make any noise until disturbed at their journey's end, when bagpipes are as Italian opera to the terrific to,uealjag.hear4 :1 - -

A Backward Glance. A flower dropped In the city street A picture bring to me Of plains where grten and asure meat, Oi smiling fields and lea. The wind the rippling water stirs. The willows shake their leaves, While in and out the robin whirs Beneath the greening eavea. The pebbles on tha river's shore Their age-long secret hold Nor murmur of the days of yora Before the world was old. The hills slope to the water's edge, And dandelion gold As rich as that in hidden ledge The spreading fields unfold. The sun laughs to the blossoms brave. The blossoms nod in glee. And in the wind their petals wave To coax the bumblebee. The orchards just behind the hills Are fruity forests deep "Where half a hundred whlppoorwills A constant vigil keep.

Mr. Rockefeller Abroad.

After rigid economy for many years.

making his noonday lunch of a glass

of milk and a piece of pie, Mr. Rocke

feller has at last saved enough money

to be able to take a trip to Europe.

His first idea when he took a notion that he wanted to take a look at the old world was to fill up the ocean and have a railroad constructed across, 6o

that he might go over In his private

car, but on thinking It over he decided

that such an undertaking might annoy

his old friend the shipping trust, so he decided to go by boat. Mr. Rockefeller goes over as a private citizen, but the kings of the old world will find him very approachable, and they may call on him freely if they wfll first be willing to submit to a search for subpoenas at the door. They will find him an Interesting conversationalist, and if they brins the children along he will probably be pleased to take off his wig to amuse them.
