Cherra Punji, in the Khasi hills, As
sam, British India, is the ''pole of the
greatest known rainfall" In other words,
it is the wettest region on the face of the
earth. Mr.. Blandford, at meeting of the
London Meteorological society, read a
paper entitled Rainfall at Cherr Punji,"
in which he presented incontestable proof
of the extreme moisture of the country
in question. The records go back for
nearly 65 years, but prior to 1872 are
rather incomplete, there being several
whole years in which no record was kept.
Carefully compiled data from these
weather journals, however incomplete
as they are, prove that quite frequently
during the summer, say from May to
September, the rainfall for single month
ranges from 100 to 212 inches. Think of
it! Nearly 18 feet of precipitation in 30
days. Colonel Sir Henry Yule's register
for the year 1S41 shows that there were
264 inches of rainfall during the month
of August. That was something phenom-
email even for Assam, however, and is
not taken into account in the deductions
made above.-St. Louis Republic.

The Australian Kea,

The Australian kea has been written
about considerably, and writer in The
Cornhill Magazine ascribes to them an
intelligence which can be called nothing
but deviiish. He says the kea was once
q harmless bird, but with the introduc-
ton of slaughter houses it has developed
a taste for animal food, and especially
for kidneys They like the kidneys of
dead sheep so well that when these failed
they proceeded to eat out the kidneys of
living sheep, leaving the poor beasts to
die most agonizing death.
When first taken from the mines, opals
are so tender and friable that they may
be picked to pieces with the finger nail.

GRAINS OF GOLD.


A man is as old as he feels, but not al
ways as big.
Happy is the man who is too busy to
be miserable.
The real giant is the man who over
comes himself.
He that lives not well one year sor-
rows for seven.
Grief counts the seconds, happiness
forgets the hours.
Doing good will make yon richer
than digging gold.
He who would be strong in mind must
have facts for his diet.
The best workers are those who have
learned best how to rest.
The man who is true to himself is a
friend to everybody else.
1t takes a fool lifetime to find out
what others see at glance.
To know man, borrow the ear of the
blind and the eve of the deaf.
1t takes contact with others to make
us acquainted with ourselves.
Keep your eyes turned inward upon
yourself, and beware of judging other d.
We lose our own possessions the mo-
ment we begin to cOvet those ofanother-
We are not to blame for the first mis-
take we make, but we are for the second.
You cannot have everything your own
way; you can't have everything, anyway
Never tell any one an unadaptable
truth when it can answer no good pur-
pose.
Only what We have wrought into our
character during life can we take away
with US.
A man no sooner finishes his prayer to
be delivered from temptations than he
hunts up temptations to be delivered

Starboard and Larboard.

The Italians derived "starboard" from
questa borda, "this side,' and ''larboard"
from quella borda, which means 'that
side." Abbreviated these two phrases
appear as sta borda and la borda. Their
close resemblance caused so many mis-
takes that the admiralty ordered the
"larboard" to be discontinued and port"
substituted. Port" for ''larboard" is
said to be first used in Arthur Pitts

Gold and Silver Paint.

"Let me tell you how to buy gold OF
silver paint" says lady. Don't get it
mixed or in the little bottles of powder
and liquid that come prepared in boxes.
Get the gold, silver or bronze powder by
the ounce and buy the liquid medium
separately, as many ounces at a time as
you wish. You know the bottle of hq-
uid never lasts as long as your powder
because it dries away and evaporates SO
rapidly. In this case you get any amount
you wish. Mix a small amount at a
time, use it as quickly as you can after
it is prepared and always keep your bot
tie corked. Philadelphia Times.
