The Sea Otter,

The sea otter is nearly twice the size
Of the common river otter, and the fur,
without finishing o. preparation of any
kind, Is more beautiful as it Is stripped
from the animal than the richest seal
skin, which has to be scraped, plucked
Of the long upper hairs and then dyed
before it could be recognized as the
beautiful object which the finished fur
undoubtedly is. In the sea offers fur
the soft undercoat, the true fur, Is as
thick as that of the seal and nearly
twice a. long, while the long outer
hairs are as soft as a sable's tail and
often a pale gray, which gives to the
whole coat an appearance as Of dark
fur slightly frosted over.

India Rubber Tree Fruit.

The fruit of the india rubber tree is
somewhat similar to that Of the Rici.
JUS communis, tie castor Oil plant,
though somewhat larger. The seeds
have a not disagreeable taste and yield
a purplish oil. 1t is a fairly good sub
stitute for linseed oil, though it dries
less rapidly. Mixed with copal blue
and turpentine, 1t makes a good var
nish. The oil may be also used in the
manufacture of soaps and photographic
inks. The seeds are somewhat like
tiny chestnuts, although darker in col
or. The Indian girls are fond of wear
ing bracelets and necklets made Of
them.

TONS OF GOLF TREASURE.
Va"t Store Of Wealth Emptied From
New World Into Old.

1t has never been told how vast was
the treasure that was emptied from the
new world into the old In the glorious
days of the Spanish dominion. We can
only Judge of how great it was by col
lateral evidence. The bottles Of Cortes
n P1Zarro are famous in annals OF
new world history. In them we have
read how the soldiers Of the former
carried away only a small part of the
treasures looted at Mexico, yet were so
loaded down with stolen gold that
when they fell from the causeway into
the lake In the memorable retreat from
Mexico they sank and drowned as
weighted with plummets Of lead: also
we read how PiZarro eXacted as a trib-
ute for the liberation Of the inca Alta
hulpa gold that filled to the depth of
several feet a room seventeen feet wide
by twenty-five feet long and that was
valued at 100000 pesos dor, the
equivalent Of nearly $15,50O of our
money.
When Drake sailed the south sea In
the Golden Hind upon his piratical
voyage Of circumnavigation in the
years 157T-79 and when he captured the
Nuestra Sonora della Concepcion-sur-
named the Cacafue or Spitfire-Of Cape
San Francisco, it took three days to
transfer the treasure from the cap
tured ship to his own. In that single
haul there was realized a purchase"
as it was called. Of over t~wenty-siX
tons of silver, besides eighty pounds Of
virgin gold, thirteen chests Of pieces Of
eight containing over $1,00O,000 in
money and an enormous amount OF
jewels and plate. o.
Upon the evidence of John Drake we
read that when the Golden Hind laid
her course for England, by way of the
Cape Of Good Hope, she was so heavily
"~ballasted" with pure silver that she
rode exceeding deep in the water."-

LIFE'S LITTLE THINGS.
They Go n Very Long Way Toward
Making the World Happy.

They Go n Very Long Way Toward
Making the World Happy.
A wild birds song is a little thing
lost in the deeps of a frowning sky.
And yet as it falls on a listening ear
and leaves its message of melody
earth's green seems brighter and life
is sweeter all through an autumn day.
The coo of a babe Is q little thing
meaningless sound from q vacant
mind.
But it's the only sound that all ma
lions heed-the one clear language that
all races know.
A mothers love is a little thing-too
soon, alas, forgot
But it typities to blind humankind
the love and trust and hope divine that
bear with patience calm and sweet the
willful wrongs in these lives of ours.
A passing smile is a little thing-lost
in a world of toll and care.
And yet the soul with gloom oppress-
ed and the life grown wearied with
burdens hard will happier be in the
afterglow of a smile that is warmly
kind.
A kindly word is a little thing-a
breath that goes and a sound that dies.
But the heart that gives and the
heart that hears may know that it
sings and sings and sings till at last
it blends with the wild birds song and
the o of babes in what men call the
celestial choir.-Milwaukee Journal.

A SMILE.
That of Evangelist Alexander Rare.
Iy Comes Or.

~ comes On.
Charles NJ. Alexander, the famous
mission singer who is about to begin a
campaign in Philadelphia with the Rev.
DR.. Torrey, has a smile that has much
to do with the effectiveness Of his mis-
sion music. The Alexander smile is one
that rarely comes off, and the express
sion of the singers face goes a long
way toward carrying home the words
of the mission hymns. His face has a
frank, open expression and when lit up
by his smile wins the sympathles Of
the most stony and Indifferent to the
aus which he represents. Mr.. Alex
ander is in the early thirties, has a
good figure, a smooth face and is quite
bald. He looks a good deal like an ac-
tor. Indeed he has the same sort Of
magnetism that enables an actor to
win the sympathy and hold the atten-
ton Of his audience. When he sang in
Albert hall, London, his voice could be
heard away above the united voices Of

A BALL OF FIRE.
Franks of a ThunderboIt In q House
In Paris.


Camille Flammarion In his book
Thunder and Lightning describes
some Of the phenomena Of electrical
storms. or the actions Of a ball of fire
In Paris he says: at was in the Rue
st. Jacques, near the Val de Grace. The
fire ball burst into the from the
chimney, knocking over the paper
guard In front Of the fireplace. In ap-
pearance 1t suggested a young cat gath
cred up In q ball, as 1t were, and NOV
ing along without using Its paws. 1t
approached the tailor's legs as If to
play with them. The tailor moved them
away to avoid the contact, of which he
naturally was in terror.
after some seconds the globe of fire
rose vertically to the height of the
mans face as he sat. and he to save
himself leaned quickly back and fell
over. The fire ball continued to rise
and made It's way toward n hole which
had been made at the top of the chin
ney for the insertion of q stOvepipe In
the winter, but which, as the tailor put
1t afterward, the fire ball couldn't see,'
because 1t was closed up with paper.
1.-THE ball stripped off the paper neat
~, entered the chimney quite quietly
and, having risen to the summit, pro-
duced a tremendous explosion. which
sent the chimney pot flying and scat
tered it in bits all over the ueighboring
courtyard and surrounding roofs"

Lessons For schooIboys.

There is no question that our fore,
fathers supposed that benefit might be
derived from causing schoolboys to be
spectators of the hangings Of criminals.
Sir Walter Scott has borne testimony
to this custom being not unknown in
Scotland. In 1.-The Heart Of Midlo-
THAN" Mr.. Saddletree is represented
as saying:
I promised to ask a half play day to the
chule so hat the BARNS might gang and
see the hanging, which Gamma but nave a
pleasing effect OF their young minds, see
ing there is no knowing what they may
come to Observation-Disclosures &c.
Sir Walter would not, we may as
sumo, have written the above had he
not known that such things had actual
ly taken place. - London Notes and

The Ducking Stool In England.

The fastest recorded use of the duck,
ing stool in England (the designations
cucking and ducking were, of course,
synonymous in the days Of Queen Eliza
BETH was in 1909. 1t was at Leomin-
ster, when q woman named Jenny
Pipes, alias Jane Corran, was paraded
through the town on the ducking stool
ter bridge by order Of the magistrates.
In 1917 another woman, called Sarah
Leake, was wheeled round the place in
the same chair. but not ducked, as,
fortunately for her, the water was too
low. The instrument of punishment in
question has not been used since then

"In a full moon Il night in the trop-

pool of moonlight. So three hours

Then, when they woke me, 1 felt
like a man in a dream. My mouth
hung open, as it does when 1 sleep,
and l couldn't close it, and my head
lay over on the side, and 1 couldn't
straighten it up.
Nor could 1 understand what people
said to me, nor could l obey orders.
Voices I'd hear far away, but they
seemed meaningless, unpleasant. l
was very drowsy. All 1 wanted was
sleep.
"'They worked on me for two days,
rubbing me down with cold water and
dosing me with castor oil, before they
brought me round. And always after
that l have been careful never to sleep
where the moons rays could get at me,
My moonstroke happened eight years
ago, but still at every full moon l am

Bird

Mr.. Bells aviary presented a pretty
evidence of mutual confidence among
birds. \ pair Of Java sparrows lived
in a compartment with a bleeding
heart" pigeon. The latter fell in love
with them and at night always cuddled
a sparrow under each wing. When
seen by the light Of a lantern the
pigeon seemed to be cuddling two ba-
bies, one under each wing, from which
the cheerful co%untenances of the little
sparrows looked with blinking eyes,

for the definition Of a furrier. A hand
was raised. Well, John, you tell US
what a furrier is" "a man who deals
in furs," correctly replied the pupil.

teacher asked for the definition Of a
currier. "a nan who deals in curs,"
