Great forests of seaweeds cover the
bottom OF the ocean and reach from
the greatest depths to the surface. In
these forests there is life more diversi-
fed than in the prlmeval forests of the
tropics. Spiders and wormlike animals
of enormous size, infusoria, crabs, sea
urchins, Shells crustaceans, starfish,
turtles and millions of other living
things of III kinds find their food in the
equally varied plant life of the deep
sea.
A curious circumstance connected
with deep sea fish is that none of these
has ever been brought up alive. Re-
cent deep sea explorations reveal the
fact that the ocean still contains i'm
measurable treasures which await de-
svelopment and utilization by human
inventiveness. The most fertile acre
Of cultivated land is a sterile desert
compared with one acre of the surface
Of the deep sea bottom.

The word starvation" was introduc-
ed into the English language by its
coiner, Henry Dundas, afterward Wis
count Melville. 1t was originally used
by him in a speech in parliament on
the American debate in 1775 and was
Immediately caught up and applied to
himself in political nickname, so that
he was known thenceforward as Star
walton" Dundas."
Il shall not" such was his declara-
ton, "wat for the advent of starva-
ton from Edinburgh to settle my judg-
ment."
Before the time of Dundas "starve,"
starving" starved" and ''starveling'
were in use, but hunger or famine rep
resented the state of starvation.
Although this word has now an es-
tablished place in our vocabulary, it
was at first vigorously opposed by
many, and on just grounds, as of hy-
brid formation. The root 'starve" is
old English, while the ending, "ation,"
is Latin. 1t does not appear in any
English dictionaries until the year 1909.

A Pack of Cards.

The ordinary playing cards of today
are derived from a stick game sup
posed to have originated in this coun-
try. Fifty small sticks are pack. The
game" was originally for the player
to divide the sticks rapidly with his
two hands, the opponent guessing
which rand held the larger number.
Owners of sticks spent rainy days in
carving them. The Asiatics borrowed
the game and carved more elaborate
counters out of ivory. Those with diff
ferent carvings grew to have different
values. Arranging them in groups of
fours made it necessary to add two to
the orr yiunl number. Then thin slabs
of ivory began to be used.
For centuries after this all playing
cards We're hand painted, at first on
ivory or metal, afterward on card
board. The pictures, at first legendary
heroes and ladies', gradually became the
fixed, wood faced caricatures we now
know, and these, coming back to Amer
lea in their westward journey around
the world, find our Pacific coast Indi-
ans still juggling the same kind of
sticks their forefathers used. - New

Early Spring at the seashore.

In a hundred ways conditions at the
seashore have changed. The time was
when one never considered that the
shore could be visited until a hot season
OF July and August, first because OF the
supposed miserable weather, and be-
cause there were no hotel accommod-
ations for those who dared to visit, nor
were there any attractions in the amuse-
ment line. OF course the Southern and
Florida resorts were in bloom. but in
May and June the weather was far from
delightful, and for the busy man who de-
lights in a day or two's outing during
these charming months Florida was out
OF the question. Then Atlantic City
came to the front. A superb climate,
magnificent hotels, entertainment gal
ore, and all within three hours of n W
York, and at the shore too, what more
could you ask.
Atlantic City at the present time is
the ideal spot. its temperature averag'
ing in the seventies, when overcoats and
heavy clothing are unnecessary. The
ocean breeZes are most eXhiaratiDg and
bracing, and the board walk is throng-d
with happy crowd. Down at inlet two
score Of craft are in commission for de-
lightful pleasure cruises along the shore.
The several big ocean piers are alive
and entertainment is provided for young
and old in the form of thratricals, con-
certs, cakewalks, basket ball games,
dancing and like diversions.
The baZaars on the board walk are
all open and from the inlet to Chelsea
there is an incessant livelness. At
lantic City was made famous by its mar
vellous hotels, and every one OF the
beach front hostelries numbering fully a
score and accommodating fully 10000
guests, is open for reception OF visitors.
These hotels cater to your every de-
mand, and nothing is left undone which
will make you happy and comfortable.
The cuisine in every instance Is equal
to that of the fashionable metropolitan
houses. and when you consider the fact
that Atlantic City is but three hour.
distant from New York by the New Jcr
sey Central, it can be readily imagine q
that Alta ntic City is the leading resort
for Nav and June, as well as the sea
sons. The New Jersey Central has
vestibuled trains with buffet PuIlman'-

The usual-and the wrong way-of
treating wet boots is to take them off
and put them on the fender or the radi-
ator to dry. This method spoils the
boots. Too much heat cracks and hard
ems leather.
Another wrong way is to stand them
on theil soles anywhere to dry.
The proper way is to place the boots,
soles upward, near enough to the fire
to dry slowly and properly, but not to
steam during the drying.
The soles should always be turned
upward, even when the boots are only
a little wet, for this way enables the
air to reach the wettest part of the
leather first.-American Queen.
