Tanning Skins.

Making leather from the skins Of
animals is one of the oldest arts practised
by mankind. In its rudest form among
savages it consisted in removing the hair
and then reducing the skin to a dry and
flexible condition, in which pulling it
and working it with the hands were
leading agencies. In tanning as now
practised the hides are first subjected to
a lime and water treatment, which
loosens the hair and enables the fat and
loose flesh to be easily scraped off. Other
preparatory processes follow, but the
chief agency in making leather is the
bark of certain trees which is ground up
and placed in watts, generally sunk into
the ground. Here thick solution of
bark and water is made in which the
prepared skins are placed and remain up-
til the fannie acid of the bark changes
the entire character of the skin. For
this;purpose the bark of oak trees is pre-
ferred, but the bark of hemlock trees is
also used to considerable extent. This
latter process formerly occupied year OF
more, but at present, with improved
methods, the finished leather is turned
out in much shorter time. Drying, oil
ing, backing and dressing the hides
thus tanned are the finishing processes in
leather-maklng.-New York World.

It was the volcano of Awu that de.
stroyed hundreds of people in the island
of Great Sangir by one of its terrific out
bursts recently. After the great erup-
tion Of Awu in I'LL large lake formed
in the crater, and natives of the official
class were permitted, once in three or
four months, to visit the crater for the
purpose of testing the water. If the
water were hot enough to cook rice, an
eruption was expected. In 1856 the
waters of the lake began to boil, burst
their banks and rush down the mountain,
Many of the people, taking warning from
the increasing temperature of the water,
escaped, but hundreds were killed. Ac

The God. Beetle Of The Nile.

Scarabeus, s'thc god-beetle of the
Lower NiIe,' has been worshiped, petted
and feared by several benighted sects Of
Egypt since the time .'when the mind
and history of man runneth not to the
contrary" Like the other sacred
creatures of idoatrous countries, several
mythical fancies are woven around this
chronological rarity. The number Of
its toes, thirty, was supposed to sym
belize the average number OF days in a
month. On each new moon day it de-
posted a ball containing $50 eggs,
which the Egyptian priests assured their
followers referred to the number of days
in the year, the brilliant golden color Of
the ball itself pcrsonifying the san. In
ancient times this curious beetle was de-
clared to be of but one sex, the male,
but modern investigation has exploded
that one myth at least.

Nations, the Gnostics, as well as some Of
tho carly Christian fathers, speak OF
Christ as the scarabmas aud symbolic
Film as a man with beetles head. The
Egyptians always cmbahned this sacred.

Farming in South Africa must be a
delightfully."- pastoral occupation from
the glimpse of its pleasures and pastimes
afforded in a report of the wild animals
destroyed by the farmers, clubs and
associations in Cape Colony during the
year ended on March 81, 1892. In that
period the agriculturists destroyed 49,
964 wild animals. The list includes
leopards, wild dogs, wolves, lynxes,
jackals, balloons, ratels, porcupines
and wild cats, and also vultures and
several other birds ssthat destroy lambs. !"
These animals and birds were either shot
or poisoned with strychnine. The Cape
farmers used to be most bothered by
hyenas, which went around in small
companies and played havoc with the
cattle and sheep. But they found that
the hyenas would eat carrion, so carcases
loaded with strychnine were left around
casually, and the hyenas have latterly
disappeared.

How to petermine Distance at Sc.

I
The rules for determining the dis
lance of objects seen at sea are very
simple and should be known by ALL
Suppose that toe eye of the observer is
eighteen feet above the level of tae

which gives us thirty-six, the square
root of which is six. Therefore, the
horizon lies at distance of six miles
when the observer sees it from an eleya.
ton of eighteen feet From height of
thirty feet (Which is about that of the
eye of an observer on a vessel the size of
the City of Rome), we double the dis
lance of the eye above sea level, which
gives us sixty, the square root of which
is ~. Hence an object may be seen at
o distance of ~ miles from steamer of
the size mentioned. If the depth of the
part OF a distant ships hull below the
horizon is known, the distance of the
ship beyond the horizon is obtained in
the same way. Then, suppose the depth
of the part concealed to be twelve feet,
then we take the square root of twice
twelve, or twenty-four, giving forty
eight, showing that the ships distance
beyond the horizon is As miles.
Hence if ship is seen with twelve
feet of the hull down Chat is with
twelve feet of the hull invisible), the OBJ
servations being taken from the deck OF
a steamer of the size of the City of
Rome, we may correctly infer that its
distance is 40 miles beyond the distance
of the horizon (Which, by the figures
alone, is proved to be distance of ~
miles,. We add the two sets of figures
together and find that the incoming or

Great Cities.

There are antiouarians who doubt the
correctness of the popular impressions
that London, at its present stage of de-
velopment, is the most populous city that
has ever existed. The city of Ninevah at
one time covered nearly hundred Eng
fish square miles of ground, and Rome
under Trajan seems to have boosted a
population of more than 2,000,000 free
citizens without counting the multitude
of slaves, the military garrison, the
foreign residents and transient visitors.
Aelius Aristides, Greek historian who
flourished in the time of Antonines, de-
scribes the "capital of the civilized uni
verse" as follows: "And as oftentimes
we see man of great strength exhibit
his power by surmounting himself with
a pyramid of other men, so also this city,
stretching forth her foundations over
areas so vast, yet rearing another of cor
responding proportions, and upon that
another, pile resting upon pile, houses
overlaylng houses, in aerial succession
contemplating which one becomes con-
yinced that if these series of strata were
to be decomposed and planted upon the
ground, side by side, the whole vacant
area of Italy would be filled with these
dlsmantled stories, and we should be pre-
sented with the spectacle of one contin-
uous city stretching from the sea of
Tuscany to the shores of the Adriatic."

second century contained one-ffth the
population of the Italian peninsula Gas

including slaves and soldiers, harbored a
total of 1000. 900 inhabitants-after all

American tourists who, according to
the recently published British and Con-

tarily leave there the enormous sum of
S5o, 100000 every year, are likely
henceforth to involuntarily devote still
larger amount to the maintenance of the
Italians. For not since thirty years OF
more has brigandage been so rampant
and so universal as at the present
time.
