THE LION WAS CLOSE TO HER

eyes blazing. 1t seemed headed
straight to our seats. l heard
papa say in a low, set tone, that
sounded ever and ever so far
away:
"My Godp
And then Aunt Jennie got hold
of my hand and pulled me up
onto my feet and turned to him
and said, just as she tells Bob
and me to do things:
Henry, you must save the
children"
Papa seemed to wake up then.
and grabbed hold of us both and
began dragging us along over
seats and people. Oh, it was
awful, and l never want to go to

was crying: "Aunt Jennie!
Aunt Jenniew for ! never knew
until that moment how much l
loved her, and for a moment |
tried to hang back and glance
over the crowd to see where she
was standing.
What saw made me almost
faint. / held my breath and
waited. She was standing quite
alone, for the people all about
her had run away, and the lion
was close at her feet.
Then, before / could even cry
out, something wonderful hap
pened. The lion suddenly lay
right down on the ground in
'front.' of her and began rolling
over and over, paving the air
like a kitten or a little puppy,
only it was so big and clumsy.
1t was all as still now as it had
been noisy before. Everyone
waited and held his breath,
while several of the keepers
crept slowly up from behind with
spikes and bars, and, almost be
fore we knew it, they had driven
the lion back across the ring and
had him safe behind the bars of
his cage.
When it as all over the people
crowded about Aunt Jennie, so
that papa and Bob and | had to
squeeze through the crowd to get
to her, and then we Rugged and
kissed her as if we never would
leave off; yes, and papa kissed
her, too, and then papa said in
a chOked kind of voice:
81 thank God, but ! can't un-
derstand it yet, dear. Is it an
other ease of Daniel in the lions
den?"
And Aunt Jennie laughed with
her eyes full Of fears.
mo, Henry, it was the bunch
of catnip. The lion got it in
stead of SilvertOes."
Papa explained it all to us aft
erward, how the lions and the
tigers and cats are all of one
family, and the old lion was just
as crazy over catnip as our pussy
cat is. Tnen papa hemmed and
hawed little, and got very red
n the face, and said
"And, children, ] trust, after
all she has done for us, it will
please you to know that Aunt
Jennie has promised to make me
very happy by filling your own,
dear mammals place"
And, wasn't it dreadful, Bob
set up a shout:
"Hurrah for the lion tanner"

GREEN: SILK COATS.
These Are Very Charming Worn with
the Lingerie: Erock Of the Day, -:
and Modish.

: Green silk coats, long or short and
in all the popular styles, have a con-
siderable vogue, and are attractive in
combination with the lingerie froclz
which is to be so generally worn this
summer. Loose little shoulder capes
and pelerines, jaunty boleros, man
telets, paleots and long loose wraps
are all shown in the Empire and en-
erald green tones and also in the new
apple green, which is striking but
promises to be very much the thing
later in the season.
We have seen an exquisite frock Of
creamy embroidered batiste elaborate
ly inset with lace and accompanied
by sleeveless coat of apple green taf-
teta trimmed in green silk fringe to
match the silk. The coat hung loose
from the shoulders in soft plaits, and
on each shoulder was a bow of the
silk, made from a five-inch strip and
tied with several loops and ends, half
falling from the shoulder down the
back half down the front.
From under these bows, which were
set we'll out on the shoulders, emerged
the frock sleeves, composed entirely
of lace frills and reaching only to the
elbow. A hat prepared for wear with

Crater Caused by Meteor.

A mystery in meteors is the
Canon Diabele of Arizona. For a
quarter of a century museums and
collectors throughout thei world
have eagerly sought specimens of
the meteoric iron from here. This
iron has become famous from the
number and size of the fragments,
from the minute diamonds found
in some pieces, and from peculiar
tiles of the locality: 1t now ap-
pears that the .crater~of Coon
mountain or Coon Butte must
have been produced by collision
with the earth of the large mete~
orite, or possibly small asteroid
which these fragments represent.
The Investigations have shown
that the formation of the crater
and the deposition of the meteo-
rite material were simultaneous,
that meteoritic material has been
found 500 feet below the surface
of the crater's center, and that
sandstone, supposed to be in
place, exists at a depth of less
than 1000 feet. The crater had
been previously attributed to vol
canic steam explosion. ~'~~~

Coal and Peat Mixture

In the kaiser's kingdom they
are mixing coal and peat, max.
ing a compressed mixture which
has been used as fuel in a brick
yard with a result so favorable
that it will no doubt open a new
field for the use of peat fuel in
brick manufacture. In the neigh.
borhood of levers, Oldenburg,
an excellent heavy blue clay is
found which was considered suit
able for the manufacture of hard
clay paving bricks. All efforts
to manufacture such bricks from
this clay proved unsuccessful un-
til a mixture of one part peat
and ten parts Of coal was tried
as fuel. The result was a hard.
brown brick instead of the light
red brick which was produced
formerly. The experiments were
repeated until at last a first
class brick was produced. So
much for fuel in brick building.

FIRST CLASS TUMBLERs.

They Were Without Stand and Ac-
tually "-IIumbled' When Set Down.
The Anglo-Saxon always used a glass
or horn without stand, so that once
filled the vessel must be emptied be-
fore being set down. Hence the old
proverb when the wine is poured out
it must be drunk" and the modern
certain VOWS, he filled his drinking
glass.
At the first the Anglo-Saxons used a
horn, and long after glass cups were
introduced for use among the upper
classes the horn still retained it's
semireligious character in transactions
land passed by the transfer of horn,
and estates were held in fee by the
same means. For example, the IA
nous horn of Ulphus. The story is,
briefly, that Ulphus intended to divide
his >estate among his sons before his
death. The sons, however, quarreled
so much about their respective shares
that the old man made a Journey to
York cathedral, where, having made
certain VOWS, he filled his drinking
horn with wine, and, kneeling before
the altar, drank off the contents in
breath in token that he gave his land
forever to the church. That was in
the time of Canute Many of the
horns were worked beautifully with
gold and silver, one fine example be-
Ing in the British museum at the pres
ent time.
Wlthe the Introduction of glasswork
in A. D. 600. when Abbott Benedict
brought foreign workmen over,
changes were made in the shape of
the drinking vessels. What is be-
lieved to be the earliest glass tumb1er
is shown in one of the accompanying
pictures. It dates from A. D. 625-C50.
