In America, eating Is becoming

Shells for Holy Water.

Tridacna shells are very comrnonry
used in churches in Europe for hoIv
water basins and even fonts. The
largest, perhaps, are those in use in
st. Peters Rome. These shells attain
weight OF 500 pounds (the two
valves together), the animal itself
sometimes being twenty pounds in
weight. The word "tridacna" is from
the Greek tridaknos (eaten at three
bites), but who could eat a TWENTY
pound animal at three bites 7--St.

Dawes Could Thin Them Out.

Participating in law case, soon after
his admission to the bar, before a

Dawes was opposed by an older at

large crowd that packed the court
room.
The justice was freely perspiring,

of the lawyers eloquent address, he
said:

MEASURES THAT ARE STANDARD
Much Care Taken to Preserve Them

SOITCCLIy.
A gallon is exactly ten pounds OF
distilled water; so when housewives
say "a pint's pound the world
around" they are mistaken. The i'm
perial standard yard, which is the
same as our own, is the distance be-
tween two fine lines on bar of
bronze, measured at 62 degrees Fab
renheit. The bar is kept mounted on
eight rollers in special steel safe in
London. The standard pound is kept
in a silver-gilt box contained in a
bronze box, the top of which is secure
ly screwed down and the whole placed
in special compartment of the same
safe. The German metric system
took the place of more than twenty
local measures. The Hesse-Darmstadt
foot was less than ten inches, the
Schwarzberg-R udOlstadt foot more
than fifteen.

In an explosion in the same mine on october

noon before the first rescue party entered the
mine
The explosion occurred LOO feet under
ground and 5000 feet from the mouth of the
shaft The explosion wrecked the brattices and
blocked the entrances to the lower levels of the
mine, compelling the removal of much debris
before the miners could be reached.
When the rescuers finally went into the mine
none could remain long. The crowds around the
portal eagerly watched car after car came
up from below, only to see rescuers who had
been overcome by the afterdamp. It was sew
