A Morocco superstition.

In paper to the Anthropological in
stitute DR.. Westermark showed from
Investigations in Morocco that the
Arab ginn, or gnun, is regarded as a
special race of beings created before
Adam, of no fixed form and assuming,
like Proteus, who was perhaps per-
sonage of the same extraction, almost
any shape they please. Bad ginns at
tack mep, but are kept away by salt
or steel and verses of the Koran. The
author supposes that the belief in ginns
has come down from saltless and
ironless age, but was absorbed and de-
veloped at a later time under the infiu-
ence Of Islam.

Architectural Oddities.

At Frankfort-on-the-Ma there Is
one street in which two houses on op-
far that their roofs meet over the
street. In one Of these houses Lord
Rothschild was born. In Paris, on the
other hand, it is noticeable that the
builders Intentionally construct the
houses so that they lean backward
slightly to add to their stability. But
almost in the center of Paris there is
one big stone building which leans out
fully 31a feet over the sidewalk So
solid, however, are the Paris buildings
that this one Is claimed to be safe.--

The House That Tresham Built.


One Of the curiosities of architecture
in England is, according to The Stone
Trades Journal, the house erected
about 300 years ago at Rushton, in
Northamptonshire, by Sir Thomas
Tresham, Roman Catholic, who
wished by his design to typify the
Trinity.
The house is all threes, has three
sides, three stories and three windows
on each fiat, each of them in the shape
Of the trefoil-the three leaved sham
rock. Where the roofs meet rises a
three sided pyramid, terminating in a
large trefoil. The smoke escapes from
this chimney by three round holes on
each side Of the three sides. The build
ing is almost covered with notices and
carvings, three Latin inscriptions, one
on each Of the three sides, having 33
letters in each. Three angles on each
side bear shields. Over the door is the
text from the Vulgate, "There are three
that bear record" Inside the house
each corner is cut off from each of the
three main rooms, SO that on every
floor there are three three sided apart
mentS.

Francis Parkman, the historian, had
Mosaic idea of justice. A friend met
him one day walking along the street
leading street boy with either hand.
what in the world are you doing,
Parkman?" asked his friend. II found
that Johnny here had eaten all OF the
apple instead Of dividing with his little
brother. 1 am going to buy another for
the younger boy and make Johnny
watch him while he eats it."

The Preacher Was Glad She Swore.
The daughter of well known clergy
man in Washington had a severe at
tack of scarlet fever when she was 3
years old which resulted in deafness.
Up to that time she had been regular
little chatterbox, doing her infantile
best to carry out the proverbial: IS
Being woman, she'll talk forever
Upon her recovery her parents were
nearly heartbroken to find that she had
not only lost her hearing. but the pow
er of speech as well. Whether she had
really forgotten how to talk or whether
it was obstinacy or lack of confidence
they could not determine, but despite
all efforts Of the best tutors the child
remained mute.
One day when she was nearly 10
years of age she was playing with a
cat, and with as much cruelty as
though she were of the sterner sex she
used it's tail as handle with which to
pick it up. The poor animal, not appre-
ciating the economic use Of the afore-
said tail, inflicted deep scratch across
the chubby little hand. q
damn that cat!" she said, flingingfk
down. -
And her father, devout clergyman as
he was, clasped his hands and, raising
his eyes to heaven, exclaimed:
"Thank God, that child has spoken at
last!'-Detroit Free Press.

The outlook for Vermont academy was
never brighter than it is today. Money
matters, the bane Of all educational in. THU
tions not largely endowed, will soon
be adjusted and put on firm and per-
manent foundation, Du'ing the past eight
months friends OF the Institution have been
bard at work raising permanent endow-
ment fund; $4,000 has already been sub
scribed, and last week the good
news was received that John D. Rockefel-
Ter would give SIS 900 provided $75 900
additional was received. This leaves $17,-
600 to raise, and there is no doubt what
ever that the sum will be subscribed speed

How Niagara Wear. the Rock.

All who have been to Niagara know
that the cataract is divided by Goat is
land, the larger portion of the fall be-
Ing ON the Canadian side of the river.
This part is known as the Horseshoe
fall and was so named because years
ago 1t was identical with horseshoe
in shape. A few years ago q V shaped
break occurred toward the New York
side, and since then other changes have
taken place, until today the Horseshoe
fall is more like its original form, but
clearly shows the effects Of the wear
ing of the waters.
Many people fail to see how the falls
wear the rock away, and this is little
mystery until the exact conditions are
realized. The ledge of rock over which
the water of both the American and
Horseshoe falls flow Is Of hard lime
stone. 1t is all Of 90 feet thick and
naturally very heavy. Underneath this
ledge Of limestone there are the shales
of the Niagara locality. This soft rock
Is many feet thick. The rock Of the
Horseshoe fall is unprotected, and as
the water falls over the precipice and
boils in the river below it washes away
the soft shale beneath the limestone,
so that the limestone is left in shefiike
form, projecting far out into the gorge.
Observant visitors to the falls have no
doubt noticed this condition.
In the course of time the shale foun-
dation of the limestone ledge is exca-
waited to such point that the unsup-
ported ledge breaks away by it's own
weight, and the crest line of the Horse
shoe fall recedes so much farther
Then the water attacks the newly ex-
posed shaie, and in time the process
outlined is repeated. This has been go
ing on for centuries, and it will con-
tinue until the falls of Niagara are no
more.-Philadelph Record.

Careless Enpinemen.

A notice signed by Superintendent
Harleman has been posted along the
Lehigh Vale. system calling attention
o the carclCssncss Of cnginemen who
pass signals displayed at danger. The
notice says that an engineer has been
dismissed from the service for the Of
fCnsc.
Among Other things the notice says:
"a careful investigation has developed
the fact that some Of our engincmen
are acquiring the very careless as well
as dangerous habit of passing a Hall
signal at danger without stopping.
simply because they think they know
why the signal is in that position"
Another notice, signed by the same
official, cautions the engineers to eXer-
else the greatest possible care in pass
ing grain fields, so that fires may not
be started from sparks from the loco
motives.
