Then he had another great surprise.
for Thor just threw back his veil,
picked up his hammer. and killed
Thrym and all his giants.
It was thought that lightning fash
ed from Thor's hammer, and that his
chariot wheels rolling along the sky
made the thunder.
There is long story of journey
Thor made to the country of another
giant, and of all the hard feats that
he was made to try.
Even his magic hammer was Of little
use to him there, for when he struck
the sleeping giant on the head thinh-
ing to kill him, the giant only asked
II 1t We're leaf that had struck him.
Among the things he was ordered
to do was to lift cat off the ground.
That sounded easy and Thor tried
with all his might, but did not sue
coed.
He was not much surprised though
that he failed, when he was told that
the cat was really the serpent Mid
gard, with the whole world in his en-
brace.
A great horn full of water was put
into his hand and he was told to drink
it dry. Thor took deep drink, but
still the horn was not empty.
Afterward Loki told him that the
other end Of the horn was fastened
to the sea, and that no matter how
much one drank, the horn could never
be emptied, for the sea was always
filling it again.
But there are too many of these
stories for me even to try to tell them
to you here. | hope though that some
day you will go to the book that has
helped me with many of these stories
and there will read them for yourself.

The other Inhabitants do not wear

They may be seen frequently after
dark, on the windward side Of the ISL

numbers to lay their eggs in the sand.
In the daytime they remain in the wa

where the midnight is the pleasantest
time Of the day, the turtles had the
advantage of us in being able to SPEND
most of their time under the water.
One night four Of us left our cottage
and walked across the island to see
them in their favorite haunts. We
spread our blankets on the sand under
the open sky and lay down to watch
their coming. Soon after the moon
had risen we saw several large turtles
crawl slowly out of the sea, and come
quite near us, showing no fear, evil

then dashed to pole we had brought
with us and carried to our humble
cottage on the other side Of the ISL
and by two native men in old Ha-
waiian style.
Our native cook killed him, taking
the shell from his back and cutting the
meat into steaks. 1t may be interest
ing to know that the quartet who capt

steak on this occasion had not seen
any fresh meat for over two months,
and the turtle steak was much appre-
ciated by them. What may seem in
credible was that the turtles head,

snapped at a stick in the morning.

Summer visitors to the mountains Of
West Virginia are returning laden
down with stories and experiences
more or less remarkable for the enter
tainment of their friends. One of the
most singular is the following. the cor
rectness of which is vouched for by
city official of undoubted veracity:
About ten miles from Romney, in
Hampshire County, there is noun
tain called by the natives Ice Noun
tain. The shady groves upon it's slopes
are the favorite resort of picnickers
during the heated term, because it is
always cool and pleasant there. This
is due to the fact that few feet be-
low the surface of the earth there is
stratum of ice and snow which exists
there eternally. Picnickers carry
their lunches to the groves on it's sides
and by digging down through the sur
face uncover enough ice to cool their
repast Farmers in the vicinity make
no effort to harvest ice during the win
ter months, because they can get all
the ice they neeQ IN summer from the
Ice Mountain.
No effort is made by the city official
who tells this story to explain the
phenomenon and no explanation is at
tempted by the natives, who are salts
fed with the knowledge of the exist
ence of the mountains There also
seems to be no fear on the part Of
those residing at the base of the noun
tain that the day may come when ex-
I, cessive heat from internal or external
causes may melt the ice on the noun
tain and cause the flooding of the sur
! rounding country .-Baltimore Sun.

Stamps to Commemorate Wedding.

Japan has recently issued new
series of postage stamps that will be
Of great interest to philatelists. They
commemorate the recent marriage of
the prince imperial.
In the oval frame is pictured low
table, spread with paper, the place
where all Japanese marriages are
sOlemnized. The table is decorated
with bamboo stalks and plum twigs
/ and blossoms, and at each corner rises
a spray of pines. The pine and the
bamboo, being evergreens, represent
that in which there is neither vari-
ableness nor shadow of turning; the
plum, on the other hand, stands for
that which buds, blossoms and fruits
! for the good of man.
The decorations of the paper table
I cover are the crane and the tortoise;
Of these the bird is symbolic of 1000
years and the turtle of 10000 years.
Here sit the bride and bridegroom and
pass each other cups of saki to the
number of nine, and so they are mar
fed for the nine drinks together SYM
Oolze the perfect Japanese marriage.
This in Japan is the emblem of we'd
lock, and for that reason it has been
reproduced in the commemorative
stamp issue on the wedding of the
Gown prince. At just such table sat
De and his bride, and the stalks OF
bamboo and sprays of pine and the
0lOoms Of the plum all joined in wish
ing them both all health, wealth and
aappiness without changing, and the
crane and the turtle fixed a sort OF
generous time limit to all the good
wishes by suggesting that it might
possibly come to an end 5000 or 10000
Years hence.
That is the way the Japanese set
