DR.. Jean Charcot, who led the recent
French a%narctic expedition, thus de-
scribes the food his party lived upon
near the south pole in the winter of
1904: Besides the plentiful stores
taken with us, the seals, killed in
some numbers at the beginning of
winter and kept in ice, never failed
us, though it should be noted that
we sometimes went several weeks
without securing any. The meat Is
excellent and the fat proved very use
full for melting large quantities of ice.
The cormorants, which were equally
penguins, although they abandoned
their rookery at the beginning of win
ter, frequently returned TO the island
In some numbers, except in August
and September. During the whole
winter the sheathbills lived around

APPLES OF STRANGE COLORING

There is an Indian legend connected
with the tree which is generally be-
lieved by the common people of the
vicinity. An Indian chief of the Del
awares, named Walla Wocka, was out
hunting one day and was murdered
by a member Of his tribe, who, in or
der to conceal the crime, buried his
body at the foot O fthe old opple tree.
The disappearance o fthe chief re-
manned a mystery to his tribe until
the fall of the year, when the apples
being plucked, were found to be blood.
red.
Searching for the cause of this
transformation, members of the tribe
dug about the roots and found the
body of their murdered chief.
Ever since then the apples have re-
NAMED blood-red, say those who recite
the legend.

Prof. James A Graves Of this city,
has just sent to Prof, Surface, the
stage zoologist, a peculiar apple, the
strange coloring Of which has excited
his curiosity and for which he cannot,
although he in a botanist OF forty
years experience, account, says the
Philadelphia Record.
Prof. Graves says that last summer
he was at Stockport, Pa, and was
shown a very old opple tree on the
estate Of Ann Preston. He was told
that it bore apples with greenish yell
low skin under which was a blood-red
pulp to the core. He arranged that
several of the apples should be sent
to him when they ripened and he re.
Gently received them. They are ordi-
nary looking on the outside. but upon
cutting them open they are at first
blood.red and near the core turn TO a
purple.

And the summer like birds between.
And the years in the sheaf, how they

As it glides in the SHADOW and sheen.

Where the softest of airs are playing.

And n song as sweet as a vesper chime,
