The shortest Twilight.

The period of twilight shortens to-
ward the equator and lengthens to-
ward the poles. In other words, the
less the thickness of the air through
which the rays of the setting
have TO pass the sooner darkness
comes From this it naturally fol
lows that the region of the shortest
twilight is the one which is situated
nearest to the equator and at the
greatest elevation.
These two conditions are combined
in the region in which stands Quito.
the capital of Ecuador. The plateau
is 3, 442 feet above the level of the
sea. 1t is also surrounded by noun
tains 20 peaks. ii of which rise be-

Stories of Two Women Who Were Very
Near to Death.
One of the earliest wrecks recorded
on the coast of America was that of
a Dutch vessel ON Sandy Hook in
1920. The captain, passengers and
crew contrived to evade the Indians
and i'll the long boat arrived safely in
New York, excepting a man and a
woman named Van Princis. He was
wounded at the time of the wreck
and had to be left behind with his
faithful young wife, Penelope. By
her aid he managed to find a shelter
in the neighboring woods, where she
nursed him until they We're discov-
cred by the savages.
Tigers could not have been more
merciless to these helpless castaways.
They murdered the husband, and
cleaving the woman's skull and fear
fully slashing her body left her for
dead, as they supposed. But she
seems to have POSSESSED n constitu-
ton of iron, for she revived and
crept into a hollow tree, where she
actually kept alive seven days. On
the seventh day a deer passed her
with arrow sticking in its side. This
was evidence that the Indians were
at hand. Rendered desperate by hun
ger and pain, and preferring imme-
date death to a continuance of this
lingering starvation, the young Won
AN crawled forth from her asylum
as two Indians reached the spot.
One was for finishing her ut once
with a blow of his tomahawk. but
the elder Indian, moved perhaps by
a shrewd desire to profit, interposed,
took her to his wigwam and by the
application of simples cured her
wounds. When she was able to bear
the journey. hetookh her to New York.
There she was ransomed for what
was a very large sum according to
the price of captives in the Indian
stock exchange. This most remark
able heroine afterward married Rich
ard Stout and died IN 1712 at the age
of 10, after seeing 502 of her de-
scendants.
Her story reminds me of an cpl
sode of Margaret Erskine, who was
laid in the family vault apparently
dead. a ring left on her finger had
attracted the cupidity of two of the
attendants at her funeral. They in
vaded the vault, and III order to re-
move the ring cut the finger. She
started up i'll her coffin. Horror
stricken. the robbers fled, and she
walked home in her shroud and tap
ped on the door. Her husband recog-
nized her knock and ran to the door,
saying, 1T is my Margaret Her
son, the famous Lord Erskine, was
born a year after his mothers flu

Women of Muscle.

In the time of Louis XIV there was
an actress engaged at the Theatre
Francais-Mlle. Gauthier-who could
break a coin between the fingers of
one hand and roll a silver plate into
the form of a cup of conical shape.
No one could bear the pressure of her
hand, and only Maurice de Sake, one
of the strongest men of his time, was
able to open her closed hand.
In the same century there lived in
England a woman, Miss Bette
Thompson, who could break chains
with her hand.
Miss Kerra, a young mulatto WON
an, who appeared III most of the cap
itals in Europe, was, we believe, the
first to perform the feat, while hang
ing with the bend of her knees in a
trapeze, of holding Il man at his belt
with her teeth and turning him rap
idly round with her hands. New
York journal.

Fire Under Water.

Fire under water may be produced
by placing some small piecesof phos-
phorus in a ~conical shaped tumbler
and then covering them with the
crystals of chlorate of potash. Next
fill the glass with water and then add
a few drops of sulphuric acid
acid to be applied directly to the
phosphorus and potash crystals by
means of Il long tube. If the expert
ment is properly carried out, tongues
of bright red flame a be e flash
ing up through the water, the in
tense chemical heat produced 10y the
action of the sulphuric acid on the
potash and phosphorus being sufli-

Man Pn,t and Euture.

De Moreal, the French statistician,
has been figuring OH the gradual
dimunition of height in the human
family with some astonishing results.
He finds that i'll the year 1910 the
average height of man was 1.15 me
tiers, or about 3 feet . inches. In
1890 it was ) feet q inches; i'll 1920 .
feet . inches. At the present time it
is but ) feet 3r inches. From these
figures it is easy to deduce the rate
of regular and gradual decline in hui
man stature. Figuring both ways
from the present, we find that the
height of man in the beginning
was l6 feet . inches and that the av-
erage man of the year 1000 a. ID.
will be less than Is inches high.

A mixture of tungsten with steelis
known to give to the latter so great
a degree of hardness that it readily
scratches glass and quartz. Accord
ing to- a statement i'll The Paper
World with reference to the fact i'll
question, a definitely crystallized
compound of iron and tungsten has
been discovered, the crystals being
SO hard as to scratch topaz. The
CRYSTALS, as formed by the combina-
ton named, in the proportion of one
atom of iron to two of tunsten, are
silver gray and very brilliant. 1t is
thought that when tungsten is alloyed
with steel some of the compound just
described Is formed i'll the mass, there
by producing the remarkable increase
in the hardness of the steel. This is
cited as an interesting example of the
value that one metal may lend to an
other, for until the discovery that IT
could he employed III hardening steel
tungsten, although occurring in on
siderable abundance, was practically
of no value.
