Fra,Vs,ncerse

Frankincense Is the purest of all ln- cense. It is a gum resin from an Ara bian terebinth. To obtain this a deep incision Is made in the trunk and be. low it a narrow strip of bark peeled off. When the emulation has harden ed, the incision is deepened. Tn about three months the resin has acquired a sufficient degree of consistency. It is gathered in large quantities and pack ed in gOatskins It was formerly be- lieved that the trees which yielded frankincense were infested by winged serpents, and the only way to be rid of them and to get at the treasure was by burning gum styraX. an odorifer- ous balsam of aromatic smell. Frank incense was forbidden to be used for as it was sacred to sacri- fcial purposes. . The Israelites were strictly prohibited from compromising it. Now it is used largely in Roman Catholic and high church ceremonies.

A bold scheme was that engineered by Maiet, a Frenchman. Malet had been a republican general, was ruined by the rise of Napoleon. betook himself to plotting, was arrested and finally put in a madhouse During the em- peror's absence in Russia in 1872 Ma let escaped one night from his prison, obtained a generals uniform and with an accOmplice dressed as an aid-de- camp made his way to the prison of La Force. where the unsuspecting gov ernOr released on his command two other ex-republicans, Generals Laborie and Guidal, prisoners on like charge to his own. Together they proceeded to neighboring barracks, announced to the commandant that Napoleon was dead and that they were acting by the decree of the senate. ordered the troops to be paraded and dispatched bodies of men upon various duties. Some ar rested Savary, the minister of police; others the police prefect. Another bat talion seized the Hotel de Vile. Ev- erybody obeyed Malet implicitly, even the prefect of the Seine, and he would undoubtedly have gained possession of Paris had he not been recognized by Laborde, chief of the military police as an escaped prisoner. He was ar rested after a scuffle. the plot was un- raveled, and in due course Malet, with twenty-three of his abettors, was shot

The Lay of fine Hen.

Investigation of the capacity of hens to lay eggs results in the discovery that the egg production of hens de- creases considerably after the age of four years. Thus a hen lays at the age of one year about 20 ecgs: at the age of two years. about 12O; at the age of three years about 135; at the age of four years. about 1lJ; at the aga of five years, about so. and at the age of six years, about 60 These fig ures go to show that hens should never be kept in the poultry yard more than four years, for after the lapse of this time they do not yield a proper return on the food they consume

Great Value of Honey.

"Honey, one of the most nutritious and delicate of foods, should be eaten more than it is," writes a cooking ex- pert. Bought in the comb, it is bound to be unadulterated and will keep one free from sore throat and bronchial troubles. I know a number of ladies who use honey as a cosmetic. They apply it to the skin, rub it in well, then wash it off with hot water. The result is a finer complexion, a glowing color, young, fresh look. ."-Birming ham Post.

HOW WATER ACTS.
It's Expansion and Contraction and
 It's Solvent Powers.

It's Expansion and Contraction and
 It's Solvent Powers.
 Water contracts as it falls from the normal boiling point, PIP degrees, un- til it reaches 39 degrees. Below that degree it expands, and at 32 degrees, the freezing point. it will expand enough to burst pipes and vessels hold ing it.
 When the pressure of the air is be- low normal, water boils at a lower tenn perature than PIP degrees. This is no- ticed before a rain, when the barometer shows by a falling mercury a decreas- ed air pressure. This also explains why water boils away more rapidly, quickly or at lower temperature in the mountains, where the pressure of the air is less than on the seacoast or in the valleys. If sugar or salt is add ed to water the temperature of the boiling point is raised a few degrees. As a rule, as water is heated it will hold a greater amount of a substance In solution. A familiar exception is the fact that ice water will dissolve twice as much lime as boiling water. At the other extreme boiling water will dissolve seventeen times as much saltpeter as will cold water. But wa

GIANT new LINER
ON MAIDEN TRIP
The Mauritania EnCOun-
tered Heavy Weather.

NEW YORK, Nov. 26-(SpeciaD-
Cropping her way slowly through
the fog which enveloped land and sea,
the new Cunarder, Mauritania arriv-
ed at Quarantine late Saturday after
noon, and after the health officers
had examined her passengers and a
host of customs men, immigration In
spectors, and newspaper men had
swarmed aboard continued at
slow pace to her pier at West Thir-
teenth Street. She completed her
maiden voyage in days hours and
10 minutes. The Lusitania's maiden
voyage was made in 5 days and 81
minutes.
The Mauretania, second of the big
turbines to be built by the Cunard
Line under the terms of her subsidy
with the British Government, has
earned one honor. In spite of the
stress of weather and the inexperience
of her stokers, she was able in TWEEN
ty-four hours, ended at noon on
Thursday, to log 624 knots, breaking
! all records for a single days run. The
Mauretania brought 1923 first, 258 sec
ond, and 739 steerage passengers, and

Had Rough Weather

The great vessel ran into rough
weather soon after leaving Queens
town on Sunday and by Monday morn
ing she was bucking through terr1tlc
head seas kicked up by a northwest
gale. The Mauretania pitched as the
great engine drove her headlong into
seas which swept her decks. A carved
show case in the lounge in which can
DIV was displayed, was torn from the
wall and sent crashing to the floor.
Late that night a score of persons
were awakened by mighty pounding
on deck, as though some on was using
a giant hammer. A number rushed
to the forward deck, where they found
that a mighty sea climbing over the
lofty bow, had torn a ten-ton spare
anchor loose from its lashings on the
deck. Capt. Pritchard quickly signal
ed to slow down to three knots an
hour-barely enough to keep her head
to the seas.
II took one hour and a half to Sc
cure the anchor. Several times after
that the liner had to slow down to
withstand the onslaught of the wind
and sea.
The most unpleasant part of the
voyage was really the last when late
on Thursday night, the liner ran
into a fog which settled down SO thick
that scarce a ships length ahead could
be seen. Through this thick mantle
she crept to an anchorage off Sandy
Hook Lightship.
