day morning. Sullivan, although on
the shady side of 60, is considered
to be a handy man with his fists n

had not had a go for some time, how
ever. and TO use his own expression
had been feeling a trife rusty" A
view Of vitagraph pictures Of the
Burns-Moir fight in a Newark theatre
had fired his blood somewhat, and
when he left a trolley car n started
to walk TO his home, three miles away,
he was in a splendid humor for a
fight.

from the Renter farm he encountered
the higbwayman, who, according to

The Chick Ia the Ego.

Almost every one knows that IL a
hens egg is kept under suitable condi-.
tons for about three weeks q fully
formed and developed chick will
emerge from the shell, but when a
fresh; egg is opened no sign of an Or
ganism is present However, at one
side Of the yolk is a minute cell which
contains the vital principle of the fu-
ture fowl. and, strange as it may seem,
this cell begins to eat the contents Of
the eggshen and transforms them into
tissues of the chick. This process may
be watched by holding the egg to the
light, when the developing Of the
chick may be followed from hour to
hour. When the chick comes out of
the: shell it is not dependent on its
parents body for food, but lis capable
of picking up worms and seeds and
digesting them. 1t will be noticed that
the hen supplies enough material In
an egg to produce a fully formed
progeny, and the chick is not started
out in life with iInperfectly formed or,

( A Tax Scheme That Failed.

4 Switzerland has always prided itself
on Its independence, and In fiscal mat
tiers this proud spirit, which will brook
no interference with the rights of the
individual, even by the state In quest
OF revenue, has sometimes been ex-
hibited In curious ways, says the Pail
Mali Gazette. AS the inquisitorial
methods of, income tax collectors are
abhorrent to the freedom loving Swiss,
boxes were once or twice set up in
several cantons to receive the volun-
tary contributions Of loyal citizens. 1t
was hoped that this method Of relying
on the public spirit OF the people
would prove successful In raising
money for public ends; but, alas for
human nature, In the course Of few
years the collectors on opening the
boxes found nothing but trouser but
tons. So the voluntary system. after
fair trial, had to be reluctantly aban-
doned In favor Of a declaration Of
capital and income, which Is liable to
official investigation.

he asked a stranger sitting next to

man turned his head the gentleman
discovered that he was not the person
he had supposed. So be fastened his
gaze attentiyely on the lecturer, leay-
ing the man with the umbrella to set

per bby Edwin F. Lines, in the United
States geological surveys "Contribu-
lions to Economic Geology, 1906"
bulletin 315). The area considered
in the report is that known to the sur
vey as the Clarion quadrangle, the
geology of which has been studied for
publication as folio of the Geologic
Atlas of the United States. a..
} Both clays and shales are abundant
wsithin the quadrangle. Shales that
are probability suitable for the manu-
faeture of. brick and tile are scattered
over most of the region, and in some
places are readily accessible to lines
of transportation. The clays include
both the flint and plastic varieties, but
the latter have been little worked.
The workable deposits of flint clays,
SO far as known, are confined to the
northern part of the area. The clay
was formerly shipped to a consider
abide extent as raw material, although
it had to be hauled several miles by
wagon to the railroad, but it has not
been mined for several years and the
old trippings are now largely covered
| up. There has been a recent revival
of in trest in the clay, however, as a
result of the beginning of construc-
! ton of new railroad which will pass

The table of geological formations

clay beds are associated with the
same number of coal horizons. Tive

quaint and curious, birds. stuffed.

savant and his birds became SO fa-

they finally examined his baggage and
his stock in the most perfunctory way.
Once when in Paris the ornithologist
picked up a wonderful talking parrot

of talking, and the bird was speedily
