CORAL BORING IN THE PACIFIC
Results of the Expedition sent Ont
from England.

From the sydney Herald: The
steamer Birksgate, which arrived on
Saturday from the islands, brings fur
Their news from Fiji concerning the
coral boring expedition at Funafuti, in
the Ellicc group. News has been
taken TO Suva by II. NJ. s. Royalist OF
the progress made by the expedition
after the departure of Professor David
In the John Williams. When Profess
sor David left Funafuti on Sept. 7
the bore was down 557 feet. On Sept.
IL, when the Royalist left F'unafuti, the
bore was down 6i3 feet. The Royalist
took to S1va a letter for DR.. Corney
from G.. Sweet. +. G. s., who Is now
the leader Of the expedition. stating
that the boring for the last ninety feet
was chiefly In coral rock, apd that no
sign OF volcanic rock or of rock other
h coral had yet been met with IN
the bore. When the Royalist arrived
h expedition had consumed all their
coal. but Commander Rason was en-
abled to supply sufficient coal to last
them till the arrival OF the steamer
Archer. from which IL was hoped IN
additional supply would be obtained.
Professor David states that. the bore
having already exceeded the depth for
which Darwin stipulated In his classl-
cal work on coral reefs, and n good
core having been obtained throughout,
It may now he looked upon as a sue
cess. Information likely to be OF con.
siderable scientific value has been OBJ
tanned, and he considers that the
general evidence so far appears strong
ly to confirm Darwin's theory that most
of the coral atolls OF the Pacific have
been formed on areas Of the earth's
crust which have been undergoing a
prolonged subsistence. A detailed re-
port Of the results obtained by tho ex-
petition will probably be incorporated
in the report Of the Royal Society Of
London on the coral atoll OF Funafuti,
the earlier portion OF which will be
written by Professor Sollas, +. r. s.,
the leader Of the Funafuti expedition
last year. The bore at Funafuti lie
lined throughout with the best are
sian tubes, four inches in outside d.
ameter. Every foot OF the bore had
TO be lined with these tubes to prevent
fragments of coral rock and coral sand
choking the bore. The work OF boriag
has proved very difficult on account Of
the variable nature OF the strata
(quicksand alternating with coral
rock), and also on account OF the "a.
vernous nature OF the coral rock, which
has caused such a Earring as to re-
peatedly break some Of the strongest
cast iron wheels in the machinery. The
diameter OF the core obtained from
the bore Is two and one-half inches.

Rxns of Tailed Men.

A French scientific journal publishes
an account OF the discovery of the
Moi race OF tailed men by Paul Den
Joy, in Indo-China. sMr. DsEnjoy saw
only one, Of the men, the rest Of the
village having run away, but he con-
versed with the n and saw where
the people lived. The man was found
In a large tree. into which he had
climbed for honey. His climbing was
like that OF a monkey, and in coming
down he applied his soles to the bark.
The tail is not the only popularity
of the race. for their ankle bones are
extraordinarily developed, so as to re-
semble the spurs Of ROSTERS. The Mois
use poisoned barbed arrows, and are
treated by the natives around them as
brutes.

Behind the scenes of this tragedy,
where few have seen, there has been
material for d score of romances. Ida
Johnson was the attractive daughter
of poor parents. She wanted to SEQ
the world and longed for the city's
glare. She sought 1t and found life.
Finally she wearied Of 1t all and came
back TO Galesburg with a little money
and a monthly income from some mys-
ferrous source. She met and loved
Charles Johnson, a prominent lumber
dealer, an ex-alderman, a man OF
means and position in his little world
They were married. For a year and
a half they lived together in the midst
OF constant storms. Nature had not
fitted than for each other, and time
only increased the torment. She &C
cused him Of drunkenness and infdel-
ity. He believed her false to him.
Johnson went to Chicago and looked
up his wife's life there. He thought
he discovered the secret of her visits TO
the city and swore that she met other
men by appointment at the Sherman
house. Other things he discovered.
which only he knew, and which lie
buried with him and in his wife's
heart. 1t was the recital of these dis
coveries. it was said. which brought
the revolver from the woman's pocket
in desperation and nerved her hand to

WORRY AFFECTS THE MIND.
II Destroys Certain Brain Cells by d.
minishing Thor vitality.

Modern science has brought to light
nothing more curiously interesting
than the fact that worry can kill. More
remarkable still, IL has been able to
determine. from recent discoveries,
just how worry does Kill. II Is believed
by many scientists who have followed
most carefully the growth Of the sell
ence of brain diseases that scores OF
deaths set down to other causes are
due to worry, and that alone. The
theory is a simple one-so simple that
amy IN can readily understand it.
Briefly put, ii amounts to this: Worry
Injuries beyond repair certain cells of
the brain, and the brain, being the
nutritive center of the body, the other
organs become gradually injured, and
when some disease of these organs, or
a combination OF them, arises, death
finally ensues. Thus does worry kill.
l~nsidiously, like many other diseases,
1t creeps upon the brain in the form
OF a single. constant, never-lost idea,
and, as the dropping water over a per-
Tod OF years will e a groove in a
stone, 30 doe worry gradually, m
p%erceptibly, but no less surely destroy
the brain cells that lead all the rest
that are, so to speak, the commanding
officers OF mental power, health and
motion. Worry, to make the theory still
stronger, is an irritant at certain
points, which produces little harm II
it comes at intervals or irregularly.
Occasional worrying of the system the
brain can cope with, but the reitera-
ton OF one idea of a disquieting sort
the cells Of the brain are not proof
against. 1t is as IL the skull were laid
bare and the surface Of the brain struck
lightly with a hammer every few sec
onds with mechanical precision, with
never a sign of a let-up or the failure
OF a stroke. Just in this way does the
annoying idea, the m%addening thought
that will not be done away with, strike
or fall upon certain nerve cells, never
ceasing, and week by week diminish
ing the vitality Of these delicate Or
ganisms, so minute that they can only
be seen under the microscope. ..

HOW TO PREVENT DREAMS.

clan to Insurs Wholesome Sleep.
From the Washington Star: AFTER
a series of experiments on myself and
others" ventured an experienced phys
ician, II am convinced that many an
noying dreams, which in many u In
stances rob sleep Of much of it's recre-
alton and benefit. can be prevented #
persons will take the trouble TO do 80.
There are dreams which are produced
by an overloaded stomach and indiges-
tion. These can be prevented by not
overlooking the stomach and taking
care, especially in the evening, TO not
eat that which experience has demon
strated is not easily digested. A fairly
filled stomach, however. Ia less o
ducive to dreams than an absolutely
empty one. q I think L can safely say
that II those persons who are troubled
much with extra dreaming will wear
extra long sleeves In their nightgowns
they will find a remedy thereby. What
Is even better than long sleeves Is 20
put a rubber cord in the hem OF the
sleeve, SO that they will not slip up
on the arm. The rubber cord should
not be tight enough to interfere with
the circulation Of the blood in the
arms. but tight enough to keep the
ends of the sleeves well down on the
wrists. To the bachelors and others
who cannot have their sleeves prop
erly arranged. the same enect can be
secured by wearing a wrislet on the
wrist or, better yet, to pull a sock over
the hands and pin the leg Of 1t to the
sleeves Of the nightgown. In addition
to preventing dreams this simple ar
rangement will be found extremely
comfortable during the cold nights Of
the next couple of months. A little in
quiry will convince anyone that those
whose wrists and forearms are uncov.
cred are annoyed most by dreams.
The sock used as a kind Of ar extended
glove will effectually stop them, but II
must be attached to the sleeve of the
nightgown, otherwise the sleeve will
work up the arm and the desired effect
