 In Bolivia 12 peaks of the Cordil- leras de la Paz rise to over 10000 feet.
 A watermelon on exhibition recently at Camden, Ark, weighed 761a pounds.
 The golden eagle has great strength. It lifts and carries off with ease a weight of so pounds.
 From the German cosony of Ebenez- CT, near Savannah, in the year 1749, over 1000 pounds of silk were ex- ported.
 Ecuador has record in volcanoes three active, five dormant, 12 extinct. Eleven of these peaks have never been climbed.
 Pens of hardened gutta percha have been repeatedly tried in this country and England, but have not met with success.
 The automobile has brought many words into use. The correct word for a private collection of automobiles equivalent to stable" seems to afford considerable difficulty. 'Motorbarn,' .'motorome,' ''motorden,'' 'smot Q rium,' ..motorshed" and "motable' have all been suggested. The French term garage" would be good one if it were not used for designating a place simply for storing and repairing ertomo piles.

wAsH1NGroN's APPEARANCE.
Tall. Dignihed and Erect, He Never

Tall. Dignified and Erect, He Never
 Relaxed from Military Attitude.
 In memoir written by David Aker- son in 1S11 is found this description: Washington had large, thick nose. and it was very red that day. His nose was apt to turn scarlet i'll cold wind. He was standing near small camp fire. evidently lost in thought and making no effort to keep warm. He seemed six feet and a half in height, was as erect as an Indian, and did not for a moment relax from q military attitude that seemed vital part of the man.
 Washington,s exact height was six feet two inches in his boots. He was then little lame from striking his leg against 8 tree. His eye was so gray that it was almost white, and he had a troubled look on his colorless face. He had a piece of woolen tied round his throat and was quite hoarse. Per haps the throat trouble from which he finally died had its origin about then.
 Washington's boots were enor- nous. They were No 13. His or ~-AH' hands were large in proportion, and he could not buy a glove to fit him and had to have his gloves made to order. His mouth was his strong feature, the lips being always tightly compressed. That day they were compressed so tightly as to be almost painful to look at.
 At that time he weighed POO pounds and there was no surplus flesh about him. He was tremendously muscled and the fame of his great strength was everywhere His large tent. when wrapped up with the poles, was so heavy that it required two men to place it in the camp wagon. Wash ington would lift it with one hand and throw it i'll the wagon as if it were a pair of saddlebags. He could hold a musket with one hand and shoot with precision as easily as other men did with a pistol. His lungs were weak, his voice never strong.
 He was at that time in the prime of life. His hair was a chestnut brown ! his cheeks were prominent, and his head was not large in contrast to ev- | cry other part Of his body, which seemed large and bony at all points | His finger joints and wrists Were SC large as to be genuine curiosities. As to his habits at that period I found out l much that might be interesting. He was an enormous eater. but was con tent with bread and meat if he had plenty of it.
 Of course. all this was changed when he grew old. I saw him al Alexandria year before he died His hair was very gray and his form was slightly bent. His chest was very thin. He had false teeth which die not fit his mouth and pushed his under lip outward.

People of Stockholm Revere His Memory, But Very Few Have
 Accepted His Religion.

It is a singular fact that the peo- pie of Sweden, who revere the mem ory of Emmanuel Swedenborg and
 take great pride in his nativity, have not accepted his religious teachings. There are only 200 members of the Swedenborgian church in Stockholm, and not more than 600 in all Sweden. The house in which Swedenborg was born in 1887, No. 43 Hornsgatan, was torn down in 1861, and a large apart ment house with an, iron front, bear ing a tablet commemorating the his

1t is probably true that the large ma

In this country have been amassed
not by iujuring our people, but as an
incident to the comforting Of great
benefits upon the community: and this,
no matter what may have been the
conscious purpose Of those amassing

ought to be unnecessary to state that
any appeal which directly or indirectly
leads to suspicion and hatred among
ourselves which tends to limit op-
portuuity. and therefore to shut the
door OF success against poor men of
talent and finally which entails the
possibility of lawlessness and violence,
is an attack upon the fundamental
properties Of American citizenship.
