casionally specimens are seen on both coasts of the United States, though it's more customary habitat is in tropical waters. This frightful creature attains length of nearly forty feet, and 1t is able to swallow a man whole. This fact is proved by an experiment which sailors are fond of making when such shark Is captured. The skull being preserved, they amuse themselves by crawling one after another through the distended jaws. It would be unsafe to do this, however, when the head has been freshly cut off, because under such conditions the jaws will snap together 1ercely for some time afterward if anything is placed between them. The skull of big shark. by the way, Is al- ways salable owing to the demand by museums and curiosity hunters. A young sea lion weighing hundred pounds has been found in the stomach of a white shark.

what a Hatpin Revealed.

A certain large millinery establish ment makes speciality of women trimmed hats at $J and $10. It is cut ting largely into the trade of the small CT high priced dealers. A short time ago a woman of fashion went into the establishment mentioned and tried on several hats, but found none to suit her. Before going out she missed Il valuable hatpin. A careful search failed to bring it to light, and its dis appearance remained a mystery. X few days later the customer, still look. ing for suitable hat, visited one oi the expensive millinery shops in tl. city. Among the hats shown to hc. i. none of which was priced lower than $35, was one that closely resemblel one of the hats she had tried on in the ten dollar store. Sle took it up to ex anime it more closely. As she felt the trimming she noticed that the cid of hatpin was concealed beneath |: bunch of artificial flowers. Drawing il out, she discovered it to be her missing hatpin.-New York Tribune.

Lions and Fowl.

Why Shells Fly Straioht.

Many people wonder why the conc shaped projectiles in their flight through the air do not wabble, but drive straight ahead. This is easily explained. Round the bottom of the shell is narrow band of copper which varies in width according to the size of the projectile. Being made of soft metal, this band Is cut by the steel rifling of the gun on the shock of ex. plosion. This action causes the shell to revolve with lightning rapidity, with the result that 1t keeps steady during Its flight through the air. - London Mail.

Looks Easy, but Try lt.

Did you ever notice jeweler wear ing his magnifying glass in one eye? It looks easy. but try it. The inexperi- enced citizen who tries to look at some thing with such glass is sure to close one eye. He can't look at the magnifed object with the other eye opened. as can the jeweler. This is only another evidence that one must learn all the details of ones trade. What is easy for the experienced jeweler is all but impossible for the novice.-New York Globe.
