North Wind is q pretty coed fell
low" said Olaf when he got home to
his mother. Here's a ram he has Civ
en- me that will make all the money we
want. IL but say tho word -
1T will take a great deal to make
me believe such STUFF" exclaimed Olaf's
mother.
My ram, make money!" cried Olaf
promptly. Int never a coin did the ram
bring forth.
Il knew it was all nonsense, ~ walled
the widow, and that was all the COM
fort Olaf got.
Without another word he sped back
to North Wind and told him the ram
had proved absolutely worthless. He
had come now to demand his rights, he
said.
Upon my word, you're a plucky
lad, exclaimed North Wind well,
the best can do for You now is to give
you the stick IN yonder corner. 1t may
be of some use to you. If You say. MY
stick, do your duty, it will go on strik-
ing until you say, My stick, be still. "
With many thanks Olaf started for
home. As he passed the inn where he
had lost his treasures, he thought it
might not be bad thing to stop there
once more. So he went in, threw him
self down Oh q bench and was soon
snoring loudly.
The landlord quickly spied the magic
stick, and taking it for granted it
might DO worth as much to him as the
cloth and ram he had taken from the
same guest he found another stick that
looked like it to leave in its place.
But as he laid hands on North Winds
gift, Olaf, who was only pretending to
be asleep. started up, crying:
My stick, do your duty
Then the stick fell to beating the
landlord, who tuInbied headlong over
benches and tables, shrieking and
screaming:
For mercy's sake, bid this stick be
still. or it will beat me to death. Stop
it-fo- PHYS sake stop it, and Ill give
you back your tablccloth and your
ram
As soon as Olaf thought mine host
had been well punished he said quietly:
My stick, be STILL
At once the magic stick ceased from
its labors. and the landlord restored the
stolen goods to their rightful owner.
Olaf put the tahlecloth and the stick
in his pocket, and fastening n cord to
the rams horns led it home in triumph.
North Wind had paid handsomely
for the -four, and the widow ard her
son lived in peace and plenty all their
days.-Auber Forrestier in Philadel-

The Coolest Cold.

The science of chemistry, like that
Of geography. has its undiscovered north
pole. Four hundred and sixty-one de-
grees below the freezing point of the
Fahrenheit thermometer (-o14 degree
c. lies a mysterious, specially indi-
Gated degree of cold which science has
long been gazing toward and striving
to attain, wondering meanwhile what
may he the conditions of matter ut this
unexplored point. Its existence has
long been indicated and its position es-
tablished in two different ways-viz.
the regularly diminishing volume of
gases and the steady falling off Of the
resistance made by pure metals to the
passage through them of electricity un-
der increasing degrees of cold.
This point, to which both these proc
esses tend as an ultimate, is called the
zero Of absolute temperature. By more
than one eminent observer it is supposed
to be the temperature of interstellar
space, the normal temperature Of the
universe. Whether or not this suppo-
sition be correct, the efforts which have
been made and are still in progress to
reach this degree of cold have been many,
diverse and ingenious. the equipment Of
the explorer being not boats, condensed
foods and the general machinery of ice
exploration, but all the varied resources
Of mechanics and Of chemistry which
can be combined to compass the ex-
tremest degree of cold.-McClnre' g
Magazine.

A New Building Material.

A new kind of building material as
a proposed substitute for ordinary stone
or brick is now receiving special in
dorsement on account of its freedom,
under various and repeated tests, from
the usual liability to crack or fracture.
To insure this property, with the other
essential adaptations, silicic acid is
used, powdered and cleansed from all
impurities. Five to ten per cent OF this
is mixed in warm river or rainwater.
and this is applied to slaked or we'll
burned lime, or added to hydraulic lime,
the resulting product being mixed with
sand and small portions of fluorspar.
This mixture is cast into lnolds, in
various shapes as may be desired, and
after removal the castings are left to
dry from IL to 81 hours, which brings
them to a condition as dry as atmos-
pheric air. In this state they are brought
into q steam boiler and steam blown
through SO as to drive out Gil air, after
which the boiler is Theoretically sealed
up and steam let in under pressure
Of 10 atmospheres. In this high pres
sure steam bath the stones remain for
As to !2 hours, afterward being submit
ted to a bath of boiling and saturated
chloride of calcium for to ~ hours,
also under a pressure of about 10 at
mospheres, in the same boiler. and the
condensed water may be used for the
bath. The stones are allowed to dry
in the open air. or, more quickly. by
circulating steam inside the boiler after
the chloride Of calcium has been with
drawn and prior to taking out the stones.

Did the Queen Know.

Newspapers here recently announced
with great display of type that the
queen had been graciously pleased to
present many bottles CT wine to various
London hospitals for the use of poor pa
:ients. The same papers have carefully
reffained from giving currency to the re-
port published in reputable provincial
journals to the effect that most of the
wine in question Vas the refuse of the
royal cellars and unfit for use in hospi-
tails. 1t was in very bad condition.
Many OF the bottles were Ealf empty,
and others were so badly corked that the
contents had turned sour. 1t is charita-
bly, suggested that her frugal majesty

Peter Cooper's Cherry Table.


There is in the city of Brooklyn at the
house of Mrs. A. A. Golden a table, the
history Of which, without doubt, will in
terest many an old New Yorker. 1t was
made by Peter Cooper, which lends it
the more interest.
1t was at this table that he and his
wife ate their first dinner after they
were married.
In appearance it is much smaller than
the modern dining table. II has two
leaves and two end pieces that are at
tached to the leaves by hinges. In all it
Is about four feet square. The legs are
long and slender. The wood is of cherry,
and. old as the table is. SO carefully has
1t been kept by Mrs. Golden there is no
sign of scratch or mar on it.
In his early ventures Peter Cooper was
often unsuccessful II was in 1915. when
he was living at Hampstead. Long ls-
land, that he failed in business. A few
days after his failure he held an auction
sale of his household goods, among them
being this table. Mrs. Mary Golden.
mother-in-law OF Mrs. A. A. Golden,
bought it for a few dollars. She after
ward used it as dinner table. At her
death, In 1855, she willed it to the pres
snt owner, Mrs A. A. Golden. The Ia
bic is one which Mr.. Cooper made with
his own hands, and. it is said. valued 1t
very highly.

Silent for -Four Months.


''On one Of my cruises had q big
black West Indian In the crew." said a
whaling captain. "One day, for some
reason, he jumped overheard. The sea
was little rough, and it was quite
awhile before we got the boats lowered,
and we lost sight of him. But we pulled
back little way, and l soon saw him
swimming with all his might, but in the
opposite direction from the boat. I
yelled to him. and when he saw he was
discovered he made no further effort to
get away And where he was going is
more than know, for it all happened
In midocean. We hauled him into the
boat and made for the ship. II was four
months before we made port, and yet in
all that time Sandy. for that was his
name, never spoke word. No one on
board could get sound from him.
Sometimes he would lie down on the
deck and seem to be asleep and some Of
the crew would slip up and stick him
with pin. At first he would twitch a
little and then would not move at all
We made bed for him down below and
kept him away from a knife or other
weapon. You could tell him to take the
wheel and he would steer right enough
but il you asked him what course the
ship was making he was silent as the
grave. And when we made the first
port he went ashore, and ! never saw
him again. But some of the crew said
he regained his tongue ON land and
thought he had been playing us all the
time. But it was strange case."-San
