How Swallows Drink.

OF course we know that swallows
drink as they skim over the surface
Of water. We have seen how here
and there the water ripples on a pond
when swallows are gracefully skim
ming to and fro. One day / sat down
beside a small pond where, every even
ing, many barn swallows came to
battle and drink on the surface of the
CLASSY water. With s~ketch-book and
pencil in hand, 1 closely watched the
birds; and you may imagine my de-
light to see just how they managed
D touch and dip up the water as they
came within a few steps of me. You
see, the swallow takes up water in It's
lower bill, just as you would dip up a
little water in a sDoon or in the hollow
of your hand while you glided oyer the
surface In a boat. Only the under
half of the open bill touches the wa
ter: II the upper half were also to
touch, the water would be forced out
on either side instead of being scooped
up into the bill.zSt. Nicholas.

George Carson had gone to Europe,
sick and disappointed. Everybody pit
led him.
Several weeks after his departure
Mr.. Lawrence received q letter from

you and yours. 1t was l who stole

/ could bear 1t no longer, and decided
to end all. If ever she should speak of
me in reason, ask her t forgive the
man who forgot all else but that he
loved her, and whose end was a fitting
punishment for his crime"
~he authorities needed no further
proof that a grievous error had been
made, and soon Clarence was released.
Mr.. Lawrence drove to the prison to
ask Clarence to forgive the attitude
he had taken and to look to him as a
| father in the future. he drove back
to the home where now all was sad
ness. On the way every one gazed at
the man on whom all looked as a hero.
Those who were foremost in accusing
him were now loudest in praise of
him.
Mr.. Lawrence, gently as possible,
told Clarence Of Marion's bereavement,
and led the way to the oom where she
was sitting. She was, if possible, more
beautiful than ever, but for the va
| cant, far-away look in the eyes. Clar'

SOME ODO
Prepared from the Skins of Variou,
Aquatic Animals.

Aquatic Animals.
Leather is prepared from the hides
of nearly all aquatic animals, princi-
pally the seal, whale, porpoise, alliga-
tor and walrus. The use Of these
hides is almost as old as man himself,
and they have ever been most eagerly
sought after for the many uses to
which they could be put after being
prepared as leather. AZ the time OF
the Russian occupation Of Alaska they
made great use Of walrus hides. Furs
were usually wrapped up in these
skins, and when they reached Kiachta,
China. the great mart Of those days,
the skin was sewed yer chests of tea.
On arrival at Moscow the soundest
portions were removed, cut up and
stamped into .kopecks and a variety of
small change. This formed the chief
currency of Alaska for a time. The
Russians also made harness of walrus
leather, while the natives of Alaska
used the skin as a covering for their
boats.
n QuttTtI kluu VI iCdluCI, uONCNci,
comes from the bodies of fishes. An
extremely fine quality of green leather
made in Turkey is manufactured from
the skin of an ugly fish called q an
gel fish. The sword grips of the Ger
man army are made from shark leath-
er. which is beautiful in pattern, being
marked with dark diamond shaped fig
ures. This skin comes from a North
Sea shark called the diamond shark.
Leather manufacturers have tried to
produce q substitute from animal
hides. but in vain. Unlike animal
leather. fish leather is absolutely i'm
pervious to water and never gets sog-
gy from dampness. Therefore it is
ideal for sword grips, as, no matter
how much the hand may perspire, the
grip remains hard and dry.
Leather is made from the skin Of
the Pacific coast and great lakes star
geon. which is exceedingly tough and
is rsed in making laces for joining
leather betting. In Canada the skin
of a species of siluroid is used in max
ing gloves.
