THE cRlPPY GIRAFFE.

Said the camel NJ. D. to the grippy CRATES
i perceive you are having q chill.
II you'll follow advice,
And be cured In trice,
Take dose of quinine in a pill"
But the shaking giraffe shook his head In
disdain.
Said he You're a witless deceiVer;
Ere your cure for the grippe
Reached the end of its trip,
might need to be treated for fever"

The egg-latching process of the in
cubator, says an expert in the breed
ing of fowls, is remarkably sensitive
to vibration. The rumble of train,
or passing wagon, even the banging of
door may spoil a whole incubator
full of eggs. A thunderstorm always
gives the breeders a scare.

Biologists staIe that Washington, Or
egon and much of Idaho are largely
overspread with lava This great des-
ert OF molten rock, 100000 square
miles in extent. and 1000 feet deep,
has undergone great changes since its
volcanic days. Rivers have diligently
plowed out canyons famous for beauty
and grandeur. Between the rivers are
rolling plateaus of rich, deep soil-the
vast wheat and grass lands of the
Northwest.

The flow of Texas rivers has been
studied by the photographic parties
of the United States Geological Sur
vey. Daily records of wate e. heights and
frequent measurements by current
meter of the velocity and volume OF
water carried by each stream are made,
The economic value of such hydro
graphic surveys Is we'll illustrated by
two examples. The flow of the Brazos
river at Waco was the lowest on rec
ord during the past season and the
Waco dam, with a head of 80 feet, de-
voloped only 1870 horsepower The
minimum flow Of the Colorado was
found to be only onc-flfth of what was
popularity estimated at the time the
bonds were issued for the dam at
Austin. the comparatively small cost
of such surveys repays taxpayers and
investors hundred fold.

Formerly, when paper for news
papers was made of rags. old papers
had some value in the eyes of the old
rag man, but in these days when all
such paper is made from wood pulp
paper with printing on is worth moth
ing. An English paper maker has
lately demonstrated a system however
whereby he repulps old newspapers
and makes clean new paper from them,
of quality equal to the original. The
main difficulty in such a process is to
get rid of the carbon of the printing
ink, which does not yield to bleaching.

1t was recently suggested to the In
stitution of Civil Engineers in London
that solid metals might reveal by their
structure the vibrations to which they
have been subjected. Professor Rob-
erts-Austen made q series of expert
mtuts, showing that wave-structure
may be impaired to the surface OF
mercury by the vibrations of tuning
fork. He also showed that surface
of solid lead possesses a structure re-
sembling that of vibrating surface of
mercury. lhis was done by subjecting
the lead To vibrations similar to those
used with mercury
