Waiver Of the Sea.

or all the inhabitants OF the ocean
few are more destructive than the sea
wolf, a kind OF dolphin which attains
when full grown length OF fourteen
feet and n weight OF 1900 pounds.
A swift swimmer 1t Is quick In its
movements. cunning as a fox aud has
an Unsuitable appetite. II feeds on the
young OF seal, whale and walrus and
also on the tongue OF the adult whale.
When mother walrus percelves a
sea wolf. she endeavors TO throw her
cub on to an iceberg II Que Is near.
Failing this. she gets It on top Of her
head and swlms with II above water.
But this is vain. Diving far below, the
fish OF prey comes M with tremendous
force. striking the frantic mother a
terrific blow and jolting the cub or
her head into the water Here 1t falls
an easy victim TO the assallant and Is
soon devoured.
In its work OF destruction the sea
wolf Is frequently aided by the thrash
err. a fish which can deliver a terrible
blow with It's tail.

Got snm.thina For Nothing

Mark Twain told how he got some
thing for nothing one day In the early
sixties when he needed the money. He
walked into hotel and was pettins a
strange dog. General Nelson A. Miles,
who CHANGED to be present, offered him
80 for the canine.
ITO be frank" said the humorist to
General Miles, 81 haven't really got
any right to sell you this animal, but If
you'll give me So you may take the pup
away when I'm not looking, and I'll
not tell who took IT,"
The bargain was closed, and General
Miles took the dog to bis room. A mo-
ment later the dogs owner inquired
for his pet, and Mark Twain offered to
nnd the animal for SO. The humorist
then went to General Miles room and
explained all, had the dog returned to
him, gave the army officer back his
money and returned the canine IN IFS
original owner, thereby making SO.

In the danger area" the severest
discipline is maintained. All entrances
are carefully guarded by searchers,
who vigorously examine every indi-
vidual that desires to enter, relieving
him OF any metallic objects that may
be carried upon his person, together
with matches and other suspicious OBJ
jects which upon coming into contact
with the dangerous chemicals used In
this zone might provoke serious trou-
BILE. No matter how often an employee
engaged within the hill may pass In
and out, every time he enters he must
submit 10 this preliminary and essen
tial operation. There are also some
500 girls employed, and these are I'M.
der the charge OF matrons. Hairpins'
ordinary pins, shoe buttons, metal pegs
within the soles Of the shoes. knitting
and other needles are all rellgiously
barred. Their hair is tied with braid
or ribbon, and, as with the male en-
ployees, every time they enter the
danger area" they are similarly
searched by the matrons. - Scientific

A Hard Knock.

Railroad claim agents have little
faith in their fellow creatures. One
said recently: every time ! settle .
claim with one OF these hard headed
rural residents who wants the railroad
to pay twice what he would charge the
butcher IL he gets sheep killed, /
think of this story, Illustrative of the
way some people want to hold the rail-
road responsible for every accident, or
whatever kind, that happens. Two
Irishmen were driving home from
town one night when their buggy ran
into a ditch, overturned, and they were
both stunned. When a rescuer came
along and revived them the first thing
one of them said was, Where's the
trainY why, there's no train around,
he was told. Then where's the rail-
roadY The nearest railroad is three
miles away he learned. We'll, well,
he commented. I knew 1t hit US pref
~ hard, but | didn't suppose 1t knock
ed US three miles from ths track? -

cepted an invitation to speak at ar
