why Ii. stove was Elevated.

During the college days Of ex-Mavor
Bessom Of Lynn he had two Of the pro-
fessors Of the cclleke as guests at a
hunting camp IN the Maine woods.
When they entered the camp their at
tention was attracted To the unusual
position Of the stove, which was set
on posts about four feet high.
One Of the professors began to COM
ment upon the knowledge wocdsmen
gain BY observation. Now said lie,
~this man has discovered that the heat
radiating from the stove strikes the
roof and the circulation is so auickened
that the camp is warmed II much less
time than would be required il the stove
was in its regular place on the floor"
The other professors vas of the opin-
ion that the stove wAs elevated TO be
above the window, IN order that cool
and pure air could be had at night.
Mr.. Bessoin, being more practical,
contended that the stove was elevated to
order that 4 good supply 81 green wood
could be placed beneath Il to dry.
After considerable argument each
man placed a dollar bill upon The table
and II was agreed that tlle one whose

Long Island in Danger,

The fisherman may have to get back
to garden worms and grasshoppers, OF
use artificial bait, according to Mr..
George +. Graham, OF New York, who
WAS talking about fishermen and fishing,
in the Joyce cafe.
s.In the last few years he said,
there has developed 4 perfect passion
among fishermen for Long Island blood
worms, especially for bass and rock
fishing and thousands of worms are
shipped To Marylana Rshing points every
week. and millions are used altogether.
There seems 10 be no place To net this
particular werm except in the sands Of
Long Island. The worm ia d long fell
low, running % rs great length as a
foot, with double row Of ercepcFs aioug
the under side Of his body. He smells
like clam and is full Of blood. He is
very tempting for rock, and makes per-
haps the best bait known, although he
costs Tnoney$t per hundred. The
great demand for the blood worm has
started an industry which threatens
Long Island that Of digging for the
worms. Hundreds Of diggers make their
living in this one pursuit which II very
nice for them but not 20 pleasant for
the island for in their eagerness to get
Al choice deposits Of bsit they dig away
back under the water line, with the rel
suit that at many points the shore il
threatened with serious cave-ins. Now
there are some restrictions-I don't

protect Long Island from the diggers.

Qenerations of Teeth.

DR.. Andrew Wilson, writing in
Chambers Journal on the Repairs OF
Life" states the little known fact thai
in fishes and some reptiles successive
crops of teeth are produced as the ami
NAL requires them.
Zone has only to look at the array OF
teeth in the mouth of certain species
Of sharks, or even in the jaw Of a cod,
fish, to note that as long as the animal
lives its dental wants are provided for,
Similarly, in the case of a reptile such
as the crocodile we find successive gen
erations of teeth succeeding ore anoth-
er from below upward.
An examination of a crocodile's jaw
would not merely show a tooth belong
ing to the set in use, but below 1t an
other tooth ready to take the place Of
the upper tooth. and below this latter
the germ of a third. These reptiles, in
common with many other forms, can
boast of uninterrupted generations Of
teeth.
MAN, on the other hand, when he
loses any member Of his second set, has
to hand himself over to the tender mer.
cies Of the dentist. which, however
necessary they may be IN modern life
are, like those Of the wicked, entitled
to be termed crucl'

far was the docking of the centre sec
ton Of the structure by utilizing the
pontoons at either end. The main
pontson is no less than SIG feet over
all, each end pontoon being ITO feet
over all The ends of the main pom
toon overhang the smaller ones, each
of the latter having an outside indie
pendent side wall high enough to all
low 1t to be sunk and hauled under the
centre structure. literally fitting around
the centre on the same principal as the
familiar collapse or telescope box.
In docking the cruiser the entire
structure was sunk to the maximum
depth in one hour and thirty-six min
utes, but pumped out in less than this
period, the exact time being one hour
and two minutes. Considering the size
Of the Colorado and the magnitude of
the work involved, the time required
was remarkably short, as only two
hours and sixteen minutes elapsed
from the time the ship was landed on
the blocks until the keel was raised
completely out OF wafer.
The decision Of the board of super
vislng engineeRs was that the dock
is Of sufficient strength and capacity
to dock ship Of 10000 tons dispIace-
ment.
The arrangements for towing this
great structure are of no little interest,
on account Of the length Of the voyage
and the weight and dimensions of the
dock. While the framework, plating
and machinery contained represent a
weight OF nearly 1900 tons, its height
above the water, its unwieldy propos-
tions, as we'll as draft make It far
