$ealskin Doesn't Come From Seals.

The beautiful product used for
clothing and commonly known as
sealskin is not furnished by the
true seal, whose skin is almost
useless except when used as an
ornamental mat or stiff rug. They
are the sea lions and sea bears
the cared seals, otaria- whose skins
are SO highly valued because SO
soft and warm. The true seal is
common enough, but its skin is
only priced as trophy, and it may
be added that sealskin when ready
for clothing has not, as often sup
posed, the same downy appearance
on the living animal, being covered
with long, coarse, deep rooted
hairs, which drop out when dressed
by the furrier and leave the soft,
woolly hair uninjured.- Elk.

n Great Storm Wape.

A great storm wave is peculiar
to cyclones. At the center Of the
disturbance the mercury in good
barometer may be lower by three
inches than that in a similar in
strumept on the verge of the
cyclone. This is owing to the
dininution Of atmospheric pressure
consequent on the rotation Of the
air wheel, and as nature abhors a
vacuum the sea in the vortex rises
above its usual level until equilib-
rum is restored. This storm wave
advances with the hurricane and
rolls in on the low land like solid
wall. In the Backerganj cyclone
Of 1876 the storm wave covered the
land at the eastern end Of the
Ganges delta at heights varying
from ten to forty-five feet, as
measured by marks on the trees.

Emperor Williams idea of ranking American

The circuit court of St. Louis has decided that
the city not be held responsible for damages in
the death of the children who were inoculaed with
tetanus administered by the city physician The
court ruled that the city in administering the anti
toxin acting for the state of Missouri, and
therefore is not liable It further decided that
the board of health is charitable institution that
the state is under no legal obligation to provide for
the physical wellbeing of it's citizens, and since
pay was received by the state for the anttoxin it
not be held liable for neglect This is the first
case of the kind on record and has aroused a good
deal of interest.
The suit was test case brought against the
city by one John Fuerst whose 4year-old daughter
Flora of the tetanus victims last summer.
The ruling of the circuit court is probably good law
but it seems shame that one who has been injured
by such gross caeessness responsible for the
deaths Of the thirteen little in St. Louis can find
redress.
