A Nartn Atlantic Curiosltv.

-.. the mlus; of the north Atlantic
 mere is an enormous field of floating seaweed which kept its place presum- ably for centuries,' said an old sea
 captain. Ut occupies an immense eddy about the fifty sixth degree of west longitude and between the tweu- V-second and twenty eighth degrees of north latitude. There Is great differ ence of opinion regarding the origin of this floating mass. Some believe 1t to be detached from rocks at q considcra- ble depth in tue latitude where 1t floats. Others suppose it to come from the shores of the northern seas, having been detached from the rocks by the violence of the winds. Some again i'm. agine that 1t comes from the rocky shores of Florida and Mexico, while many others agree with me in believ- Ing that 1t has never had any other than its present place of abode. No one has ever seen it attached to rocks, nor have roots ever been discovered belonging to It."

What a Mans Beard Telia.

You can tell some of q mans habits and read some of his traits of charac- ter from his beard" said the old bar ber. If man spends his days at a desk beside window his hair and beard will grow faster on the side to- ward the window. Plants and boards both flourish under the influence of sunlight. Why, one of my customers found the effects or the side light so pronounced that he changed his office desk to face the window. Another in- teresting fact Is that. when a man Is up late or works long hours. he needs shave oftener than if he took the usual amount of sleep That's because In being awake lie keeps the vital proc. esses of his body in greater activity than when asleep. The growth of the hair depends largely on the circulation Of the blood, and the heart slows down when we sleep" "5-kansas City Star.
