QUEER BIRD NOW EXTINCT.
Discovered and Studied Only by Its
Oddly Constructed skeleton.

Discovered and Studied Only by Its
oddly Constructed Skeleton.
Anauralist has lately brought to Eng
land the bones of an extinct bird new to
science, which has received the name of
Genyornis. He exhibited these very in
teresting specimens at the last meet
ing of the Geological society, and made
a few remarks concerning the finding
of them in Lake Callanbolla, formerly
known as Lake Mulligan, in South Aus
tralia, says the Westminster Gazette.
He explained that the lakes which one
sees so abundantly marked in the map
are nothing more or less than dry clay
and salt pans, evidently very uncom-
Portable to camp near. The bones of
this extinct species are found there in
great numbers, but owing to the &C
ton of salt and water, which is found
very little way below the surface,
the remains are very brittle and diff
cult to deal with. The circumstance
of so many being found in this one
lake bed is probably due to the birds
having been driven there en- masse in
time of great drought in search OF
water, for on the surface there could
be traced the outlines If skeletons ~
ing as they died, probably begged and
too weak to struggle further in search
of water. The feature that strikes the
ornithologist in these bones is the
shortness of the phalanges, clearly
showing that the suggestion which
has been made as to the Genyornis be-
ing marsh bird is untenable, for such
heavy bird would have needed very
long toes to tread on marshy ground.

many dolls, until she had family Of
1872 of them. The name of each she en-
tered in book and wrote out its entire
history, where it came from, how it
lost its nose, how its dress was torn,
and finally, how its sawdust blood ran
out and left it only bunch of rags.
With these dolls the little princess
performed many ceremonies of state.
Their feet were so fixed in the long
board that they could stand upstraight
and she marched them around in many
wonderful ways.
One of her other sports was riding
out on her white donkey, whose head
was adorned with blue ribbons. An
old soldier led it by the bride. Some
times she took drive in a small pony
chaise, led by page. One day dog
ran between the pony's legs; itswerved
and upset the little carriage. The
princess would surely have been in
jured or killed, if soldier who was
passing had not caught her in his arms.
His name was Maloney, and he was
warmly thanked and generously re-
warded by the duchess of Kent, her
mother.
Victoria had to study much harder
than many little girls, for she was to
be fitted for a most important work.
She began to learn from books when
she was five years old. Later she was
trained to speak French and German,
as well as English, and, by the time she
had reached her eleventh year, Ital-
ian, Latin, Greek, mathematics, music
and drawing were added to her studies.
The princess was very fond of draw
ings, and early began to sketch from
nature. She was much interested in
natural history, and was delightedwith
her first visit to the British museum
and asked that she might often DO
taken there, She also took much
pleasure in learning simple botany,
which she studied with her uncle Leo.
pold in the woods.
Another pastime she found in visit
ing her "Uncle King" as she called
George ~, then king of Englnd.
AT is years of age, before she was
really grown TO womanhood, she was
crowned queen of England. When it
was time for her to marry she didn't
have to wait until some nice young
man asked her. Shehad to do the asking
herself, because the queen of England
is so great that no one she could marry
could presume to ask her. She con-
fessed to her dearest friend that pro-
posing to Prince Albert was the ''most
trying ordeal she had ever expert.

observation-disclosures Disastrous Ex-
perience on Pneumatic Tires.
Grant Adams, farmer who lives not
far from Kingston, N. Y, wears golf
stockings and rides bicycle. There b
a story, too, that he has a bicycle pillow.
He drives cows to pasture mounted on
his wheel, and the other day he started
to lead calf to an adjoining farm.
The calf, says the New York Herald,
was of the good old-fashioned kind
which resent new-fanged ideas. He
came ola racewhich had beenled arount'
by bare-footed boys, with tattered tror
sers and many freckles.
The calf looked at the two runaway
wagon wheels in front of him and grew
rebellious. He pulled at the rope, which
was tied around Adams waist. Then
he determined upon plan of action
That calf put his best feet foremost,
and a moment later he was running
down hill, with a bicycle coasting be-
hind.
Adam had no brake, and back ped
aled with all his might. The calf drew
the machine and rider after him. The
animal made quick detour to the right.
Adams, in trying to avoid the calf, ran
into a rock.
There was confused tumble of bent
spokes and punctured tires. Adams
chung to his bicycle, and the calf
dragged bicyclist and the almost disin-
tegrated machine over the rough coun-
try road.
A farmer saw this trio approach and
headed them off. The machine and
Adams were wreck, and the calf was
triumphant.

DRESSING FOR SALAD.

Mrs. ROrer Gives Recipes for the
French and Mayonnaise.
To make French dressing, put half
teacupful of salt and a quarter of tea
spoonful of white pepper into bowl;
add gradually six tablespoonfuls of
olive oil. Rub until the salt is dis
solved, and then add one tablespoon
full of vinegar or lemon juice. Beat
well for o moment and it is ready to
use. 1t is much better if used at once.
Cream dressing is made by heating a
gill of good cream. Moisten table
spoonful of corn starch with little
milk; add it to the hot cream, cook a
moment, then stir in the well-beaten
yolks of two eggs. Take from the fire;
add half teaspoonful of salt, dash of
pepper and tablespoonful of vinegar
or lemon jrice.
Put the uncooked yolks of two eggs
into clean, cold soup dish, then add a
quarter of teaspoonful of salt and a
dash of cayenne pepper; work these
well together, and then add, drop by
drop, half a pint or more of olive oil.
You must stir rapidly and steadily
while adding together. After adding
one gill of oil, alternate occasionally
with a few drops of lemon juice or vim
egar. The more oil you use the thicker
the dressing. If too thick add half
teaspoonful or more of vinegar until
the proper consistency. More or less
oil may be added, according to the
quantity of dressing desired.-Mrs. S
I. Rorer, in Ladies' Home JourDal.

VICTORIA AS A GIRL.
Childhood Days OF the Queen Who
Has Now Reigned Sixty Years.

There stands in one of the rooms of
Kensington palace, London, an old
faded doll house, a headless horse and a
model of ship. They are the toys
with which Queen Victoria used to
play when she was little girl, about
IS years ago. In another room, not
far away, is bronze plate. showing
where the queen of England was born.
Although Victoria was to become one
of the greatest monarchs of her age
and to reign longer than any other
English sovereign, she spent rather
dull time as little girl. There were
no companions with whom she could
play, so her mother bought her great

IN Y ENIOR EDISON.

Thomas A. Edison, says New
York correspondent, is soon to startIe
the world with another wonderful dis
coyery. Not content with giving to
m0rtals the incandesccnt lamp, the
the knctosCope and the
Horoscope, he now proposes to make
the human body transparent. In u
word, it will be possible one Of these
days literally to "see through man.
Heretofore pOst-mOrtem examination
has been necessary in order to under.
stand the mysterious makeup Of some
people. If Mr. Edison's expectations
are realized, however, the same result
can be reached by an ante-mortem
diagnosis. and the secrets of the hui
man "prison house disclosed before
breath leaves the body. To be brief,
the wizard has just discovered new
chemical common in his laboratory at
Llcwcllyn Park that promises to re-
vOlutiOnize surgery and even the
broader domain Of science. Indeed, to
state the exact facts, Mr.. Edison has
succeeded in manufacturing Il number
Of new crystals which offer greater
possibilities in connection with the
horoscope. Several Of them in parti-
cuar hold out the hope that physi.
clans may sooner or later see the exact
position and condition Of the internal
organs Of their patients.

WHERE BUDDHA WAS BORN.
4 RECENT DISCOVERY IL WHICH TIE
WORLD Is INTERESTED.

New YORK Herald.
a recent article in The Sunday
Herald announces that the birthplace
/ OF Buddha had been discovered in In
dla, and that orientaliSt> throughout
the world were eagerly waiting for de-
tails Of chn discovery These details
have now come to hand. and 0oy Ger
tainly furnish prima tacc evidence NJ
the fact that Buddha WAS really .....
ing Of flesh aud blood, and not mere
solar myth, as some scholars would
have us believe.
Credit for this discovery is due to
DR.. Fahrcr, archaeological Inspector
Of the northeastern provinces Of India
For some time he has been anxious to
explore the country Of Nanza-N igliva
and Nanza-Paderiya, in the district Of
I}atcul, and the prime minister Of
Ncpaul recently gave him permission
to do so. The doctor had good reason
to believe that there were many undlS-
covered treasures in this part of India,
and, being Jealous archacologiSt, he
resolved to secure as many Of them as
possible
So he began to explore, and one day
he learned that at little distance
there was very curious monument.
He went to the place and found a
mOnOlith fixed in the ground 1t was
about three yards in height and was
covered with religious inscriptions.
DR.. Fahrcr examined it closely. and
finally it occurred to him that the
portion Of the mOnOlith under the
ground might be even more interest
ing than the portion above the ground.
He communicated this idea to his
assistants and the result was that in a
very short time the earth was removed
from the base Of the monOlith until
the entire stone was visible. 1t had
been imhoddcd to depth Of three
yards and a half, and on this long
buried portion Of slab Dr. Fahrer
found, engraved in large characters,
an inscription by the iiluStrous King
AcOka.
This inscription says in unmistak-
able language that his majesty went
in person to the gardens of Lumbini
and erected there this monolith "in
the very spot where Lord Buddha wa
born
Now, many Il search has been made
for the famous gardens of Lumbini,
but their exact location has not been
until now. Tradition tells
us that they were in the very region
where the monolth was found and |
that they were very near the ruins Of
kapilwcSton, "thc city Of red earth"
which the tribe of Cakyas inhabited |
and which WAS in consequence the
home Of Cakva-lnOnuni, otherwise
known rs Buddha.
This monolth then. discovered by |
DR.. Fahrer. is evidently in the long |
lost gardens Of Lumbini. and in the
minds Of the pions BuddhistS of India
there is not the slightest doubt that it
marks the birthplace OF the great Lord |
Buddha.
