DR.. Hartman's medical lectures are eag'

derf1l mines of rock salt in the world
Mount Nulpi. The deposits of salt
in this spot are said to be in some
nlaces more than 200 feet thick. They
have been almost continuously worked
since prehistoric days (the stag horn
picks of the palaeolithic men are still
picked up now and again in the work
ings) but they show as yet so signs oil
exhaustion. The Armenian traditions
hold that Noah drew from Mount kul'
pi the supply of salt necessary to pre-
serve the provisions of the Ark.

Cocoanut Clocks.

In the Malay peninsula the natives
keep a record Of time in the following
way:
Floating in a bucket filled with
water they place cocoanut shell, hav.
ing a small perforation, through which
by slow degrees. the water finds its
way inside. This opening is so pro-
portioned that it takes just one hour
for the shell to fill and sink Then a
watchman calls out. the she'll is emp.
tied. and they begin again.
Such trifes as minutes and seconds
are rarely needed on the peninsula.
Fancy any one asking the time in Ma
lay. and being told that the cocoanut
shell was half full!

Governor odell on Good Roads.

The annual message OF Governor
OdeIl. of New York. had the following
to say on State supervision over State
roads:
-Four hundred and eighty-four miles
of road have been improved by State
aid since the enactment Of Chapter 1lo
of the Laws of 1898. The counties
have already contributed their half OF
the expense for building G19 miles for
which plans are now ready. Petitions
have been presented for the construc-
ton of $3.50 miles.
The total mileage Of roads in the
State is 1907. In order to form Il
perfect system Of highways through
the State, it is estimated that the I'M
provement of not mare than ten per
cent. Of the total mileage Will be neces-
sary. In other words, in order to Sc
cure system of good roads throughout
the State, the total ultimate mileage
would be about 1900 miles. The coun-
ties have provided for their half OF the
expense for HOB miles of improved
roads, while the State has contributed
its proportion for only 4S4 miles. 1t is
estimated that $2,S01 900 will be re-
duired from the State to complete this
11O3 niles.
while it has taken number OF
years for this system of road improve
ment to grow into popular favor. it will
be seen that probably within the next
six or eight years all necessary roads
will be under construction or will have
been completed provided funds are
available. which Will give perfect sys-
TEN throughout all portions of the
State. This. with the States contri-
buttons for the repair of roads i'll coiln-
ties which have adopted the money
systcIe. ought 10 give to New York L
magnificent system o. highways.
"Some changes are necessary III the
good roads laws in order to protect and
repair tliese highways. These neccs-
sites can De met by amendment of
the existing statute. While it is not
contemplated that the repairs to these
roads shall be the States duty, except
in ~ far as provided under the So
called Plank law. yet there should be
supervision by the State in order to in
ure the maintenance OF these i'm
bowed roads. With this end in view
it might be proper to provide for State
supervision over State roads by giving
70 the State Engineer and Surveyor
such jurisdiction as will always secure
uniform plans for repairs in all coyn-
ties IN the State"

Amend the Road Law.

The decision of the Grand Jurors 10
recommend that the Legislature change
the present road laws, insomuch as
they affect Fulton County, appears to
us to be a step in the right direction.
Under the present law all males over
the age of XSiteen years in the State
of Georgia, who dc not live within the
boundaries Of an Incorporated town OF
village, must pay the sum OF $3.50 an
nual road tax. or accept the alternative
of working the roads for period OF
five days. This is an ANTICIPATED SyS-
ten. and one which does not work OUT
well. The Road and Bridges Commit
tee of the Grand Jury. whicl! recently
made an inspection of the thorough
fares of the county. found many of the
highways and bridges to be III very
poor condition. With the view of find
ing some method by which they may
be improved the Grand Jury called all
the County Commissioners together,
and the result of the meeting was the
decision that the present laws should
be changed.
Under the plan proposed the Board
Of Comfy Commissioners would have
direct supervision OF the entire road
system of the county. All persons OF a
legal ag, would be compelled to pay
Gil annual tax of 50 for the improve
ment of the roads, and the portion OF
the act now in force which allows the
alternative Of working five days on the
roads would be repealed. The tax of
s. paid would be applied directly by
the County Commissioners to the road
Improvement.
Under the present system large ma.
jority of males over sixteen years or
age prefer to give five days labor TO
the roads instead of the money. The
labor on the roads is therefore con-
Quoted in most haphazard manner
without centralized direction. and the
results are bound to be inferior. II
there was no alternative of road labor
those from whom the taxes are due
could be required by law to pay their
So each year, with the alternative OF
punishment in the case Of failure. Inc
money thus collected could be used by
the county board in an intelligent man.
Eer. Such q system would bring or
ganization into the matter OF highway
improvements. and the results would
be made manifest in very short time.
With the money collected improved
road machinery could be collected-a
thing which is impossible under the
present haphazard system. In this day
and age of the world the old system OF
labor for few days Of the year. which
originated somewhere about the times
of King Alfred the Great of England
is very much of an anachronlSm. one
good machine can do the work OF
great many people; do it much better
Snd save time and money.
1t is reported that good roads con-
vention is planned to be held in this
CITY in the near future, at which the
plan of the Grand Jury will be in-
dOrsed. Resolutions should be drafted
then for presentation to the State Leg
islature, and everybody in the county
should get behind the movement and
help push. The plan is distinctly a
step for the better. and should receive
the Endorsement Of and assistance or
all the public spirited.-Atlanta Jour-

DEAD MAN STEERS A SHIP.
Deserted In Mdocean, His Hand Still
Grasped the Wheel.


Grasped the Wheel.
A sealing schooner, the Arietis, re-
Gently sighted a mastless derelict
about 100 miles southwest OF Queen
Charlotte islands.
Although at first it was thought
there was no one on board, a figure
was ct length made out crouching In
kneeling position at the wheel. The
cartain of the Arietis accordingly
hailed them when within distance and
proffered assistance.
Receiving no answer. however, and
noticing that the steersman never
shifted his position. he lowered a boat,
and with some of his crew boarded
the derelict. He found that the man
was quite dead and had apparently
been so for some time. but his rigid
hands still grasped the wheel and
guided the vessel on its course.
He had evidently been deserted by
his crew In storm, and as a last
Forlorn hope had lashed himself to the
wheel. Some food was found close
to him and also two or three bottles
Of medicine, showing apparently that
he i'll when his long watch began.
The name of the schooner was the

that if you go near cholla joint it
will Jump at you. Certainly il you
touch one it will stick. AMI when you
try to free yourself it will n!erce
your other hand as well. Each pen
dent joint seems TO reach out for the
passerby. and the ground beneath the
broad cholla tree is strewn with
fallen fragments, many Of which take
root and grow
After one has felt the sharp spines
through heavy boots and seen their
needle points, it is a source Of con.
tinual wonder to see the wild cattle
Of Arizona quietly browsing on chol'
las. The phrase cactus fed" as ap-
piled to Arizona, is not a figure or
speech. During the years OF drought
thousands of cattle carry themselves
over until the next grass by eating
chollas. With their leathery tongues
and lips they strip the spiny joints
from the trunk and leave the wide
spreading cactus q bare and woody
skeleton. II is only the range cat
tie, whose mouths have been harden
ed on the thorny mesquite and iron
wood browse. who will undertake to
eat cactus. and cattlemen therefore
often burn the thorns from cho,las
and nopals in order to tempt their
more fastidious animals to eat
