Of "Ths Book u Daysn has, through
some odd niischance, entirely neglected 70
mention the miracle Of the preservation Of

fol story has been a theme Of discussion
among church folks the world over for 200
OF 800 years, yet the above mentioned
work, which purports to give an account
Of everything out II the ordinary, whether
vouched for or only reported, has entirely

remotely abiding to Il.

now eushriaed Ia a church bearing her
name In the rity mentioned above, the
relics having remained ga their present

bolt upright In a chair, her features and
form somewhat shrurken, the skin Of the
face and hands badly discolored-in fact,
almost biack-yet her mortal remains nre
not Ia the least decsyed it appearing, even
10 the unhelieyer, that the fhits have de

pected under such conditions. Mar
velous, indie ed, were some of the pic
lures of the walrus that were pub
lished in the sixteenth century, in the
dark ages when taxidermists were not,
and geological museums were without
form and void" And yet, with the ex-
ception of the figure by CLAUS Magnus,
which is half fish and half hog, with
four eyes on each side and a pair of
impossible horns, none of these gro
tesque figures are one whit more Won
derful than is the true character of the
Pacific walrus.
His real personality was only half
known to the world until in 1872, Mr..
Elliott landed on the rocky shore of
Walrus island, armed with sketch
book, notebook and tape measure, and
made an elaborate series of studies of
this species actually at arms length.
His published pictures and notes were
such complete revelation regarding
the actual form and habits of the Pa
cific walrus as to cause much astonish-
ment among naturalists; and to some
it seemed almost beyond belief that
the form Of the walrus was really as
pictured from life by this painstaking
artist.-St. Nicholas.

bottom of the jar on account of the
water entering through the small
holes in the bottom. But when the
water penctratcs into the bottle withi9
the box and mixes with the powder il
produces great quantity of carbonic
acid gas, which expels the water
through the box pnd allows the latter
to rise to the top of the jar, the gas in.
side keeping the inner disc of the valve
full against the interior. When, how.
ever, the cork outside rises to the TOP
of the water it releases the valve and
the gas escapes. The box is now in its
first condition, and the water, being
enabled to enter by the holes at the
bottom, again fills the box and sinks il
until the gas is once more formed,
when it rises anew to the surface.
This rise and flow will continue for
some time. This curious experiment
may be performed on q larger scale in
water tank of bath, the box, OF
course, being made in proportion.-N'

In "a Street Car Barn.
Did YOU know, boys, that you can
teach nn intelligent colt or horse to do
almost anything by patiently making
him go through the performance many
times, day after day? That is the way
the circus trick horses and ponies are
taught. After colt is once trained to
perform a variety of tricks he becomes
very valuable. Circus shows will buy
such horses at big prices. few years
ago boy in western Pennsylvania
trained colt to perform as he had
seen horses perform in shows, and
when the next circus came around tho
proprietor gave him $500 for the ami
NAL. The New York Times gives an
account of street car horse named
Charley, on the Central Cross-town
road in that city. Bill Smead had
driven Charley for long time, but
Bill was discharged ono day and new
driver took charge of the horse. The
account says:
All went well until the corner of
Broadway and Seventeenth street had
been reached. Then Charley stopped,
turned about, faced the driver, elevated
his upper lip and opened his jaws. The
man dropped the lines in horror. Re-
inforced by the conductor he tried to
get Charley to "tend to business" but
the beast was obdurate and had to be
taken to the barn, the incident causing
some little blockade of travel. The
next day the horse went out under
fresh guidance and at the same place
h;e ,Nra,yi1,,c ont,nC s.Nn,,
fellers dunno how to drive a hoss,
that's ALL, remarked Bill, who put in
