PRINTING In Tibet

Great printing works are estab-
lished at Nartang, in Tibet A trav-
eler says: There are thousands and
thousands of blocks at Nartang, COM
prising matter in type equivalent to
numerous different volumes. Each
wooden block is about "a inches long
by IL inches wide, one face having
carved upon it complete page of let
tering. The method of printing is
primitive in the extreme and consists
of laying the paper on a fat surface
and levering the block upon it with a
long handle much as the village
blacksmith works his bellows"

Combs of honeNhees.

Honeybees are generally credited
with instructive skill in making the
cells of the comb hexagonal in shape,
but it is probable that this construc-
tion is merely the ordinary result of
mechanical laws. Solitary bees al
ways make circular cells, and the
bees in a hive no doubt make them
circular also, but mechanical pressure
forces them into hexagonal form. A
well.known naturalist. in speaking of
the matter, says that all cylinders
made of soft, pliable substances be-
come hexagonal under such circum-
stances.

SHOT AT BUNNY; HIT A BEAR.
Hunter Has to Fight for His Life with
Bruin.

When John Potter of Sullivan coun-
ty went rabbit hunting yesterday he
put three shells charged with buck
shot into his belt in anticipation of
meeting a fox, says the Port Jervis
IN. " correspondent of the New
York World. 1t was to this foresight
that he owed his life. At the edge Of
a swamp the hunter sighted rabbit.
Bunny was brought down with a load
of birdshot, but the fine shot scattered
and the rabbit fell. Potter heard a
terrific roar from a clump of bushes.
Several of the small shot had
struck huge bear in the nose and he
plunged from the underground, the
maddest animal that ever poked his
head out of a swamp. Potter was so
completely taken by surprise that he
had no time to run when the bear
charged. He sprang to one side and
escaped blow from the beasts paw,
but second blow struck him in the
leg, ripping his felt boot from top to
sole and tearing the flesh. ,......
Unmindful Of the pain Potter bolted
for open country with the bear at
his heels. He encountered rail
fence and vaulted over it, but in doing
so he dislocated his left wrist and
fell. In desperation he showed one Of
the buckshot cartridges into his gun
and as the bear was clambering over
the fence after him he fired the full
charge into the bears head. The bear
fell dead within two feet of Potter.
The hunter walked five miles to have
his injuries dressed by a physician.

ALlMoNY PAID IN PENNIES.
Trick Sometimes Resorted to in Order
to Cause a Creditor Trouble.

AS a rule nobody will refuse any
kind of good money in payment of a
debt, though there are some kinds
more convenient than others. Pen
nies are legal tender, but it would
take a quart of them to pay bill of
any considerable size. 1t sometimes
happens that just to be disobliging
and to cause the creditor inconveni-
ence the debtor pays in pennies.
Such a case happened in Flatbush,
L. l., the other day, where husband
had been directed by the court to pay
four dollars a week for the support OF
his wife and to pay it to the clerk or
the court. In order to make both as
much trouble as possible he brought
in the four dollars in pennies and
they were accepted, though as mat
ter of fact pennies are not legal ten
der to that amount. The minor coins
of the United States are determined
by statute to be "a five-cent piece" A
United States statute says: The
minor coins of the United States
shall be of legal tender at their noml-
nal value for any amount not exceed
ing 25 cents in any one payment.
The creditor can take them by the
carload if he wishes, but refusing to
take them in sums over rs cents at
time will not enable the creditor to
set up the claim of tender, nor will
it invalidate the creditors right to
collect. These tactics are seldom re-
sorted to and only to create incon-
venience. The United States statutes
are not much studied by laymen, and
so this point is not generally under
stood OF the minor coins only the
five-cent piece, or nickel, as it is COM
monty called, and the penny, are in
any considerable circulation. The
three-cent piece has gone out of use.
is seldom seen and is not much
missed. 1t has gone the way of the
two-cent piece and the cooper penny.

An English physician, James Can

impervious to any digestive fluid,
wherefore they result in serious in

Whites Most Private Studio.
On the floor above was a smaller
studio, fitted up with the same royal
magnificence. This was the room with
the red velvet swing and the big Japa-

which the feet of the swinger crashed
when strong arms pushed her high.
Here White had his ordinary living
rooms, bedrooms and dressing-rooms.
On the floor above, reached by tiny
back stairway, of which few indeed
knew the secret, was a studio-almost
a boudoir-smaller and daintier still.
Back of this, separated by curtains of
heavy gold-crusted tapestries, was the
exquisitely furnished little bedroom
where, they tell, champagne was
poured for those whom the king of this
palace of art most delighted to honor
with ruin.
