Earthuuakes.

No prediction can be made safely as
to future earthquakes in any particular
region. If any conjecture is warrant
ed, it is merely that regions which are
known to have contracted the earth
quake habit are, ON the whole, more
likely to quake i'm the future than are
regions which have long been free from
seismic disturbances. No part of the
continent seems less likely to be shak
en- than the Mississippi basin. Yet there
were disastrous earthquakes about the
mouth of the Ohio river in 1S11-13.
Regions covered with thick layers Of
clay, sand, gravel, glacial drift, etc, like
much of the basin of the upper Missis-
sippi, are less likely to suffer severely
than those where solid rock comes to
the surface, for the loose material acts
as a cushion to deaden the vibrations
which come to the surface from the
solid rock below.-The World Today

cancer in a less abhorrent light than
that in which most people have regard
ed him. He even had religious beliefs.
No buccaneer was allowed to hunt or
to cure meat upon a Sunday. No crew
put to sea on a cruise without first
going to church to ask q blessing on
their enterprise. No crew got drink
on the return to port after a successful
trip until thanks had been declared for
the dew of heaven they had gathered
After a cruise the men were expected
to fling all their loot into pile, from
which the chiefs made their selection
and division. Each buccaneer was eX-
pected to hold up his right hand and to
swear that he had not concealed any
portion of the spoil. If after making
oath a man were found to have secret
ed anything he was bundled overheard
or marooned when the ship next made
the land Each buccaneer had mate
or comrade, with whom he shared all
things and to whom his property de-
volved in the event of death. In many
cases the partnership lasted during life.
A love for his partner was usually the
only tender sentiment d buccaneer al
lowed himself.

Clever Mother Wood Duck.

How does the mother wood duck get
her brood of twelve to eighteen duck
lings from her hollow tree to the
creek? Hunters, fishermen and nature
students have tried to answer this
question, and many are the guesses
at the riddle Mr. William Brewster
watched an American golden eye that
had q nest in the hollow tree Overtang-
ing the water until he heard her, after
she had made an inspection of the sur
roundings, utter |'quack'' that brought
her brood pellmell out of the tree and
tumbling down into the water A mag
azine writer says he has seen the
young ducks climb out of the hollow
down the tree and walk to the water,
which was near by. Others believe
that the mother carries them in her
bill, taking them by their wings; 9th
ers that she carries them on her back

in that equable climate they battle their

Origin of "the Levant."

Nowadays "the Levant'' means solely
the eastern Mediterranean region. But
it really signifies the east in general
sense-the region of the rising sun, in
fact-being derived from the French
clever" to rise. By 1.-The high Levant''
Bacon meant the far east In the
eighteenth century Chambers Encyclo-
pedia explained that 'Levant'' applied
to any country to the eastward of one.
and in this sense Evelyn wrote Of
more Levantne parts than Italy"
"Levant," indeed, was interchangeable
with "Orient,'' just as "ponent' was
with "occident.' So we find Milton
writing Of "Levant'' and "Ponent'
