people came on board the vessel 10
bargain. The specimens that were e.
hibited did not meet with the captains
approval. The chief admitted that the
moko was not very choice; but, point
ing to his men, he told the purchaser to
pick out any one that suited him, and
when the vessel returned the head be
chose should be dried and ready for him.
The origin Of the fashion of wearing
patches has been attributed to the fol.
lowing circumstance: Once upon d time
the wives of the Scythian officers be-
came jealous of the beautiful Thracian
captives their husbands had brought
from the wars. So, when their lords
and masters We're away, the angry
danes caused designs of sun, moon and
stars to be pricked on the faces Of the
Thracian women, hoping to make them
hideous. But, contrary to expectation,
when the Scythians returned they great
ly admired the dark blue tracery, which
set off the delicacy of the rest Of the
skin to such advantage that they COM
PEELED their wives to adopt the fashion.

Good luck is Of all kinds, some Of il
queer. The San Francisco Post, for in
stance, tells how a laboring man in tina
city found himself fortunate in a wa,
most unexpected.
When the moo whistle blew the othe,
day, he sat down on Il box in the shade,
thrust his hand into his evercoat pocket,
looked surprised and then remarked:
I've lost my lunch"
He pondered over his ~predicament 8
moment and then added:
well, I've got something to drink
anyway" And he pulled a bottle Of
coffee out Of his other pocket.
He slowly drained the bottle, threw
it aside and sat lost in thought for q
moment. Suddenly he sprang up, slap
ped his thigh and exclaimed:
Its a good job / lost my luncht'
why so:" inquired another work
man.

A Pearl Farm.

There is only n pearl farm in the
world. 1t il in the Torres strait, at the
northern extremity of Australia, and bc-
longs to James Clark of Queensland.
Mr.. Clark, who is known as "the king
OF the pearl fishers" originally stocked
1t with 10000 pearl oysters. Now
1000 men-200 of whom are divers
and $50 vessels are employed in har-
vesting the crop.
Il have been Is years engaged in
pearl fishing" Mr.. Clark told a CORE
spondent of the Melbourne Age. Il began
III o small way and have given the fish
cries my close attention during all this
time. My experience has led me to the
belief that, with proper intelligence in
the selection Of a place, one can raise
pearls and pearl shells as easily as one
can raise oysters.
II started my farm three years ago
and have stocked it with shell; which I
obtained, in many instances. far out at
sea. To grow shells successfully, how
ever, according to my experience thus
far, the water must not be too deep.
My pearl she'll farm covers 5000
square miles. Over most.of it the water
is shallow. In shallow water shells at
tain the greatest size, and, besides, it is
hard on the divers to 60 down deep for
Them.
'tsIeship my pearls to London in my
own vessels. The catchieach year runs,
roughly speaking, from 5000, 900 worth
up to almost five times that amount"

The entire history of Tacitus, as we
have the work, was regained from a sin
gle copy found in the fifteenth century
in a monastery Of Westphalia. That we
should W the works of this author to
one copy is a remarkable circumstance,
for the Emperor Tacitus, who claimed
to be a descendant of the historian, had
copies Of the history placed in every Ii
brary OF the empire, and each year had
ten copies transcribed for presentation to
scholars. All, it seems, persisted save
