establishment and took the inquirer back

boiling water and kept there a certain til

Brendan sailed the ocean for seven years
In search of the island that had once been
Adams Eden. During that time he regu-
larly revisited the Island of Sheep, where
the sheep are as large as oxen; the Island
OF Birds, that are really fallen angels. and
another island, which is really a big fish
named Jascon trying to get his tail into
his mouth St Brendan used to encamp on
the fish on Easter day and go on to the
birds on Easter Monday He found the
Eden island at last, but no one has seen
1t since. though 1t appeared on seventeenth
century maps and in an eighteenth-century
treaty between Spain and Portugal Prob

The Prince Of Monaco is rendering to

seems to have set foot a really sys-
tematic study of the air currents in the
upper atmosphere. During one of his long
cruises last year he perfected q system OF
