The Land of I'irn and leo.

Was there ever such an anomaly as
the island Of Iceland? Geographically
it belongs to the Western Continent,
and yet, historically and politically, it
is member of the Eastern. 1t lies
close under the Artic circle, where Win
ter prevails during three. quarters of the
year, and is surrounded by seas filled
with icebergs; and yet boiling geysers
and fountains Of heated steam burst
everywhere from its surface, while great
volcanoes pour down into its valleys
and upon its plains streams Of molten
lava. The nearest neighbors of the
Icelanders are the EsquimauX of Green
land while the Esquimaux are sunk
to the neither level of ignorance, the
Icelanders have raised themselves TO an
elevated plane Of enlightment. And
so the wonderful island lies there, a link
between the two hemispheres; n site
where the most opposite of elements,
heat and cold, are constantly contend.

How Certain Animals Live in Water.

Our readers know that there are two
kinds of respiratory apparatus - lungs
which inhale air, abstract oxygen from
it, and give, in return, chiefly carbonic
acid and gills which absorb the oxygen
dissolved in water, and also give off
chiefly carbonic acid, which is more
readily dissolved in water than the oxy-
gen. The apparatus is possessed by
mammals, birds, etc., the latter by
fishes; and as lungs are incapable of
taking oxygen out Of water, and gills
cannot take it from the air or, in other
words, as lungs cannot breathe water
and gills cannot breathe air, animals
with lungs are drowned In water, while
fish are drowned in the air. A small
number of amphibious animals, how
ever, possesses both lungs, and can,
therefore, breathe either air or water,
and thus live in both. 1t has been,
however, observed that musk rats and
other winning animals with lungs
could travel considerable distance
under ice without reaching any breath
ing hole on the surface, and it was
long time problem how they succeeded
in living so long and travelling SO far
without having access to the atmo5-
phere. The problem has been answer
ed by S. Newhouse, in work called the
Trapper's Guide" from which we eX-
tract the following:
Musk rats have a curious method Of
travelling long distances under ice. In
their winter excursions TO their feeding
grounds, which are frequently at great
| distances from their abOdes, they take
in breath at starting and remain under
water as long as they can. They rise to
the ice and breathe ont the air in their
lungs, which remains in the bubbles
against the lower surface of the ice.
They wait till this air RECEIVERS oxygen
| from the water and ice and then take it
in again, and go on till the operation
has to be repeated. IN this way they
travel almost any distance, and live any
| length of time under the ice.
"The hunter sometimes take advant-
age of this habit Of the musk rat in the
following manner:
When the marshtS and ponds where
the musk rats abound are first frozen
over, and the ice is thin and clear, on
striking into their houses with his
hatchet, for the purpose OF setting his
traps, he frequently sees whole family
plung into the water and swim away
under the ice. Following one for some
distance, he sees him come up to renew
his breath in the manner above de-
scrihed
After the animal has breathed
against the ice, and before he has time
to take it in again, the hunter strike i
with his hatchet directly over him, and
drives him away from his breath. In
this case he browns in swimming few
rods; and the hunter, cutting hole in
the ice takes him out Mink, otter and
beaver, travel under the ice in the same
way and hunters have frequently told
me of taking otters in the manner
have described, when these animal
visit the houses of the musk rat lol

taphilus, was porter In Pilates serv-
ice, end while Jesus was passing out
from the Judgment hall impiously
struck him on the back, saying, "Go
quicker, why do you lolter?" Jesus
looked back on him with severe coun-
tenance, and said, IL am going, but you
will wait till I return" And accord
ingly Cartaphilus is still waiting his
return. 10
After Christ's death he was converted
and baptised, and his name was chang
ed to Joseph. In 1912 the Wandering
Jew appeared at Hamburg. telling
story similar to the above. He, howev-
er, said that his name was Ahasuerua,
and that he was shoemaker whostruck
Jesus on the back while on the way TO
Golgotha. This particular person Is
described as tall man, of about hfty
years of age, with long hair hanging
down to his shoulders, barefooted, and
wearing q strange costume, consisting
of sailors trousers, gown reaching TO
the knees, and long mantle flowing
down to his feet. He spoke good Ger
man, in the saxon dialect. in 1919, the
Wandering jew appeared in the Meth
erlands, and this time used the Spanish
language. \ few years later the Wan
deriug jew arrived at Strasbourg, and
going before the magistrates, informed
them that he had visited the city just
two hundred years before, which state

He next was heard of in the West In

1904, he caused considerable sensation,
his presence being accompanied by de-
structive hurricanes On April ODD, 1774,
an individual claiming to be the Wan

told his story to the common people;
he, however, had changed the popular
name of his character and called him.
self Isaac Laquedem. This legend has
formed the subject of numerous popular
ballads in the different languages of
Europe, and also of poems, tales and
novels, by distinguished authors. 1t
may here be remarked, that this curious
myth seems to have originated in that
passage of the Gospel of st. John,
twenty. first chapter and twenty-second
verse, where Jesus says of John, "If 1
will that he tarry till come, what is
that to thee? follow thou me. Then
went this saying abroad among the
brethren that that disciple should not

" The Wandering jew"

y rumor comes from village near
Antwerp that the historic Wandering
Jew' has been seen in that ncighbor-
hood. He is reported as having passed
rapidly through the market place, and
aS having on the outskirts of the viii
lage addressed few words to some
children, who, boldcr than their com.
panions, had followed in his path. He
was dressed in worn and dingy antique
garments, carried long staff and with
his profuse beard streaming in the
wind presented such an awe inspiring
appearance that the terrified villagers
fled from him in fright. When he
paused and spoke to the children he
told them TO go back and inform the
people that new ruler had arisen in
Europe, who would bring Belgium,
Holland, and other countries under his
sway, that many strange vicissitudes
would be witnessed, and that many
proud heads would be brought low

here again in the future. Until the end
of time shall walk the earth unceas
ingly." The apparition then waving
its hand turned from the children ant
resumed its plodding walk, and disap
peared in the distance.
The report of this appearance of tn,
Wandering Jew" has caused great ex
citement among the believers In tn
legend, and the truth of the story |
credited throughout Belgium. The le
gend of the Jew who had witnesse,
the cruciflXion, and had been condemn
ed to live and wander over the cart
until the time of Christ's second com
ing, originated in the middle ages, an,
can be traced back to the Chronicle c
the Abbey of st. Albans, which wa
copied and continued by Matthew Pari.
This chronicle relates that in 1928 ce,

places, and while enjoying the hospita
