I.n.nese Nav Year Cakes.

An annual event in Japan is the
making of the New Years cake, which
every family must have If good luck
is to follow it during the ensuing year
This cake is made of peculiar variety
of rice, boiled and pounded In a great
wooden mortar until it is Of the con-
sistency of dough. Although the pure
white dough is often colored yellow
or pink, the shape of the cake is al
WAYS the same-that of the sacred mir
ror, one of the three sacred symbols OF
the Shinto faith. A piece of this cake
is offered to the Shinto deities because
1t is of the shape of the sacred mirror
which wooed the sun goddess to come
out Of the cave where she had hidden
herself in wrath and thus saved the
land from total darkness. Each mem

How and Why Some Animals Exist All
Winter Without Food.

How and Why Some Animals Exist All
Winter Without Food.
The philosophy or nature of hiber-
nation and why and how it is that the
alternating creatures can go so long
without food are interesting studies.
In the first place, the creature In or
der to enable it to sustain life through
out the long winter during which 1t
hibernates is endowed with the capac-
ity Of accommodating within its body a
large quantity of fat This fat is to the
animal what well stocked coal cellar
is to a fire, and until the whole of it
has been consumed the tissue of the
body proper remains untouched. 1t
has been ascertained that animals can
endure the waste of tissue until 1t
amounts to 40 per cent of their normal
weight. Should the weight be reduced
beyond that point the result Is death.
But nature comes to the rescue Of the
alternating creatures In another way.
When the Information begins, respira,
ton and digestion almost cease Din
some cases they cease absolutely, and
the circulation Is only just active
enough to sustain life. AS conse-
quence of this the wear and tear Is re-
duced to the minimum, and the crea-
ture is enabled to pull through.-New
York American

Submarine Cables.

The very first suggestion that was
ever made about a submarine cable
was that made in the year 1875 by the
Spaniard Saliva before the Academy of
Sciences at Barcelona. Two years later
Saliva proposed to connect Barcelona
and the island of Majorca by sub
marine telegraph line In 1903 Aldini,
nephew of the celebrated Calvin, made
some interesting experiments in the
transmission of electric signals under
the sea near Calais, France. In 1872
Schilling ignited powder by electricity
transmitted through submarine wire
under the Neva, near st. Petersburg.
John Sharpe In 1913 transmitted cleo
trio signals through seven miles of in
sulated subaqueous wire. 1t was not
till 1888 that 1t was demonstrated that
submarine telegraphy was practicable.
In 1913 Samuel Colt was operating sub
marine cables between New York city.
Coney Island and Fire island. In 1851
the first important submarine telegraph
was opened for business by company
of French and English capitalists

ouasr Fish.


At first thought the electric chair,
which sends the criminal to his doom,
would seem to be a refinement of In
vention possible only to mans genius.
But the electric eel can benumb a
horse so that it will drown before re-
covering from the shock, and the
fiercest fish is rendered helpless by the
gentlest touch of this creature. Small
wonder these eels flourish in their ma
tive waters and seldom fail to find
food enough and to spare!
At any rate, the gentleman angler
casting his fly upon the ripple is
unique. Surely no animal can match
the rod and line! Yet there is fish
with long, slender f1lament dropping
forward from Its head, tipped with a
heshy, wormlike appendage. The fish
lies quietly on the bottom and awaits
nibble. Soon a minnow makes a
dash for the waving luscious morsel.

When the nose is bleeding never nolo
II over a basin or hold the head down
in any way. This only causes further
rush of blood to the broken tissues IN
the nose. The head should be held up
and back, the flow being caught in
handkerchiefs or cloths. One Of the
most effective and simple means Of
checking a nosebleed is to press on
the upper lip. Near the undersurface
Of the lip runs the artery that supplies
the interior nasal passages where the
ruptures occur. If this is pressed, the
flow of blood is mechanically checked,
thus allowing the blood around the
broken tissues to CONCEAL and seal up
the opening. If merely pressing with
the finger does not succeed, place a
wad of paper under the lip and fold
the lip over 1t, holding it down tight.
Again. If this does not succeed and a

saturate a piece of cotton with it and
apply to the interior Of the nose from
where the blood flows.

singuIarIy Adapted to Its Life Of
Aerial Piracy.


Aerial Piracy.
No one could fail to be struck with
the singularly perfect adaptation Of the
dragon fy's structure to life Of aerial
piracy. The four wings are large and
in proportion to their weight enormous
ly strong Each is supported by won
derfully arranged network Of slender
ribs, which give the necessary rightly

forming its basis. The muscles by
which the wings are moved are mass.
i've and powerful and are so arranged
among themselves that the animal is
capable of steering its course with an
unerring accuracy which any bird
might envy. In this power 1t is largely
aided by a marvellous keenness of
sight, for in addition to the two great,
gorgeously colored compound eyes
which make up so much of the head
the insect possesses three smaller Sim
pie" eyes, making five eyes in all. The
prey when overtaken is seized and de-
voured by means Of powerful, sharply
toothed jaws.
An animal which lives such an &C
tive life naturally requires very per-
feet breathing apparatus, and this Is
amply provided by a system of holes
on the sides of the body which open
into an elaborate network Of air tubes,
supplying every part. of the system.
The air in these tubes is constantly
renewed by the regular compression
and dilatation of the body by special
muscles.-Chamber Journal.

Model of Economy.

A certain farmer who lives out in
the county and who is noted for his
closeness in money matters has a
twelve-year-old son, who is as indus
trious as his father is penurious.
Recently the father and son made
compact whereby the latter would re-
ceive 10 cents for every cord Of wood
he sawed and piled in the wood shed.
Immediately the boy became very
busy at the wood pile, and his earnings
have been piling up at rapid rate,
his mother keeping her sons hard
