1t is queer how people always miss
the best news said the kite to him
self.
Just then merry voice said, Hell
10. cousinl Why have you stopped
fying?"
1t was the sun, which had come
out again, the West Wind and the
black cloud having run away to play
their pranks somewhere else.
81 thought that | would just sit
here and rest for time" said the
kite with an important air while
you are here | wish that you would
dry me. You might as we'll be of
some little use, you know
The sun laughed again and blew its
hottest breath down on the vain kite,
until his tissue paper body and his
golden sun and long tail were dry
again, although little wrinkled
Then deep voice sounded from
high. 1t seemed to come from lit
tie, white, woolly cloud that was trot-
ting along for all the world like a
silken poodle dog.
Come along, come alongp said the
voice. Il am the North Wind and
| am going on far journey"
The North Wind reached down and
began to untangle the kite The tele-
graph wire became so angry that
words failed her and she could only
hum like million and a thousand
bees. But it didn't help her, for all
at once the kite was free and went
soaring away.
1t mounted high in the air till the
highest church steeple seemed only a
pin; it went over mountains and riv-
ers and cities, till all at once there was
nothing to be seen below except a
vast smooth plain that shone like sill
yer in the sun.
Nov you must hold fast to me,
said the North Wind, putting his arms
around the kite, FOR we are over the
deep, blue ocean, and i you fall you
will drown and be eaten by whale.
Indeed" said the naughty kite. Il
guess that | can fly as we'll as you.
Kindly take your hands off me-
Very WE'LL said the North Wind,
and let go.

he was swooping like all eagle, but in
reality he was turning over and over

Heat from the Stars.

Professor Nichols, the astronomer,
made a: wonderfully delicate instru-
ment some time ago to measure very
faint heat waves. 1t is SO sensitive
to heat that it registers the warmth
that emanates from a mans face
1000 feet, or more than a third OF a
mile, away,
With this instrument Professor
Nichols tried experiments in the
Yerkes Observatory. He selected the
two stars Vega and Arcturus. These
stars are so far away from the earth
that the human mind cannot conceive
the distance No instrument hac
ever been able to detect the slight
est warmth from them.
Professor Nichols succeeded witl
his appliance He found that Arcturu!
sends the earth as much heat as /;
man could get from candle burning
SIX miles away from him. Vega wa.
found to send only half as much hea
as this.

prised if any one had told him. that
his graceful swoops and dances were
all due to the small boy with the
piece,of string.
Il suppose that l really was too
condescending to speak at all with
that common person" thought the
kite. Il wonder what my true realm
is and where l can shine the most"
You would better come along with
me, safd loud voice right in his
ear. The kite looked up and saw a
long-haired man, taller than noun
tains, with a fiuttering cloak of gray.
His hair was huttering, too. SO was
his beard. Indeed, everything on him
and around him was tapping and
whipping and dancing, and the kite
felt that he, too, was beginning to
hutter and that his tail was blowing
out straight III front of him.
Down below, the small boy and his
friends were trying their best to pull
in the string But they could not
move it and the tall man laughed
"IIa, ha. hal cried he. They don't
know that the West Wind has the
kite in his arms and is going travel
ing.
The next moment the string broke
close to the ground, and the golden
and pink and blue kite went whirling
away, side by side with black cloud
that had red and green hem Of
lightning on her flowing sable cloak.
Hoo, hoo. hoof7 sang the West
Wind, bending the treetops down and
letting them whip upward again as
he passed. He stopped to the ground
and took heaps of sand and dust into
his broad arms and threw them high

1t was a roaring laugh, that puz-

wish that you would tell us which
way you are blowing. How do you
expect me to do my duty if you laugh
like silly instead of blowing straight
as an honest wind should? Do you
know that you might cause a calam-
ity by, preventing ME from pointing
right?"
The West Wind laughed so hard
at that that he blew the poor old
weather vane clean off the spire.
Horrors" gasped the golden roost-
er as he went hurting over and over
lin the air Nov there will surely
be fearful calamity"
But there was no calamity at all;
and boy picked up the golden roost-
er and harnessed him to wooden
cart and made beast of burden of
| him for the rest of his life.

0fx course it wasn't, but the oldest
inhabitants really could not have held
their. proud positions if they had not
said SO.
The West Wind tore down the I'M
dertakef's sign and threw it across
the door of the doctor. The lawyers
sign Went flying across the street and
landed right side up, SO that every
body could read it, in front of the
town Jail.
The fat burgomaster and the thin
clerk of the common council stood
stock still when they saw this and
poled each other in the ribs and
laughed like anything. The black
cloud swooped over them, took out
a bucketful of cold water from under
her black cloak and poured it with
excellent aim straight down the backs
of the two dignitaries. SO they stop
ped laughing Immediately, and at the
next session of the common council
they introduced a resolution against

resolution, and it still hangs framed

once his long tail caught on some
thing. 1t was the mast of a ship.
"Ah!' said the kite to himself. I'll
Just stay here for moment and help

The ship was running before the
trade wind, and the kite tapped mad
ly.
Nobody noticed the kite away up on

he tapped and futtered and felt i'm

Then the kite saw strange countries.
He flew far over Brazil and over the
forests of the Amazon. At last one
day he looked down on great noun
ta1ns, where the Kings of the Andes
sat, each with white crown on his
head; but they did not look at him.
although he swooped his best and
imagined that they would mistake
him for new and beautiful condor
Then the kite found himself at sea
again, and made believe to be an al
batross. But he did not say so to
the East Wind. He did not wish to
be dropped again.
For many days he saw nothing ex-
cept water and sky, until he became
almost i'll from the monotony. But
at last little dots appeared far ahead
and then they became bigger dots and
then waving plumes could be seen.
These were the tops of palm trees,
sWaying in the Pacific winds.
! All at once the kite saw a horde
of brown men appear on the shining
beach They shaded their eyes and
looked at him.
"Ah!" said the kite. Il am going
to be admired again"
He tried to make a swoop TO show
off, and slipped off the East Winds
automobile and went circling helter-
SHELTER toward the island.
He heard a shout from the earth
below, and then a sharp pain went
through him. One of the brown men
had shot an arrow at him.
He fell on the sand and was seized
by the savages. They carried him to

sat among tom-toms and carved idols.

Hair p0zOder Led to Porcelain

produced kaolin, the soft, beautiful
white clay that is the chief compo-
nent part of fine Chinese porcelain.
Investigations showed that the pow
der was being put on the market by
a country squire who had found white
earth on his land one day. and had
been sending it out ever since to be
used for hair powder.
A great factory was built by the
King as soon as Boettger told him
what he had found, and showed him
the first sample Of porcelain.
He also forgave Boettger for swind-
ling him with lies aboutmaking gold;
but Boettger was kept a prisoner
still, although he was in a golden
cage.
1t would have been better for him
if he had been kept in a common
Jail. Boettger, although he was now
on the way to great wealth and fame,
could not resist the temptation to
drink and dissipate, and before he was
twenty-nine years old he was like a
man dying from old age His eye
sight was so poor that he could
neither read nor write, and at last he
was unable to arise from his bed.
The factory, although it had been
fitted with royal generosity. never
paid expenses, because it was never
managed properly. But it turned out
porcelain that made the name of Sax
ony famous.
Boettger died a wreck at the age
of thirty-fve. Even in his last hours
he fooled the King. into believing
that he still possessed wonderful Sc
crets. And on his deathbed men at
tempted, with threats Of all kinds, to
extort from him the Philosopher
Stone, which many in Saxony firmly
believed had been found by him

Reindeer Hunts in the Wdter

TN THAT part of Siberia that
I lies along the Anadyr River,
i which empties into Boring Sea,
the natives are now engaged in
strange way of hunting the reindeer.
These animals are unusually plenti
full in the territory along the river at
this time of the year They have spent
the early summer in the mud holes Of
the northern tundra, whittier they flee
early in spring to escape the moSqul-
toes and flies; and when they return
in August and September they are fat
and strong.
The deer move southwark in great
droves, consisting of several thousand
to a drove. These droves are sub
divided into smaller herds of a few
hundred animals to a herd, but the
herds are so close to each other that
the whole moves like one immense
army.
Often such drove of reindeer COW
ers an area of seventy-five miles in
length and thirty-hve miles in width.
The animals follow almost the same
trail year by year, and their favorite
crossing places at the river are we'll
known to all the hunters.
There, then, the men lie in wait I'M
der the banks, in cranky canoes which
are so small and light that the occu-
pant can keep them upright only by
being exceptionally skilful They are
only seven feet long and barely wide
enough TO give room for the hunter
to sit down.
The leading stag steps carefully
into the water. AS soon as he is in.
the rest press down the bank after
him. The Hunters wait till the river
is full of deer swimming side by side
and pressed together so closely that
there is no room for them to escape
Then the light canoes dash among
them and the hunters strike at the
deer with their seven-foot spears.
The stays fight desperately when at
tackled, and even the does will try t.
tip the canoes by throwing their fore
feet into them. But the hunters arr
so skilful that, although they drive
their crazy boats right among tn,

there IN the midst of the madly plung
ING mass. they rarely are hurt.
While the men are in the waite
snearing the deer, the women and chill
dren on the bank make all the nois
possible, in order to brighten the am
mails so that they will stay in the rive
instead of climbing ashore and run
ming away. The women do not con
6ne themselves to making noise alone

I A Plentiful Menu.

Probably the most varied diet in
the world said traveller who had
Just returned from the Malay PENN
sula, is that of the Jakuns of the
Sea, or Orai1g Lauts, who are the
real Malay pirates. These people have
about all that there is to eat, and they
eat everything as. it comes along.
{ Although they have all kinds of
fine fruits, at certain times of the year
they eat yam which is so poison
Gus that they have to CRATE it and
mix it with slaked lime before they
dare swallow it.
In the way of flesh they eat mon
keys, deer, wild pig, birds. FISH, porcu-
pines, lizards, squirrels, rats, mice and
snakes. And they seem to turn from
.venison4 to rat, or from wild pig to
snake, with equal appetite.
