The Caroline islands group includes,
besides coral islands. five mountainous
islands OF basaltic formation, beautiful
and fertile with rivers and springs.
Among the many queer legends of
these children of the Pacific there is
none more highly improbable than
their theory as TO the origin Of these
islands and their inhabitants. They
think they themselves were very
strong i'm the water-in fact, they lived
in It. The story goes that a woman
and her children were floating around
on the reef when n man appeared from
the west with n basket OF soil on his
shoulders. He had started out TO make
an island with Il mountain - ii. one
Of the children cried out to Vim, Give
us a little soil 10 make place for our
mother 10 rest, for she is very weak
and cannot swim" He took ont IA
handful Of the earth and threw it
down. making an island. AS the man
was going on his way over the water
the son slyly made a hole In the baS
ket. so rs he proceeded on his way he
left n trail OF land behind. Suddenly
he became conscious that the basket
seemed light. and. looking around. he
saw the land. In his anger he turned
about and trod upon it, and thus the
islands were formed.

The Tciler Foiled.

Recently one your man bet another
that he could rot break an egg placed
on the door If their room by hitting It
with a. barrel. The second young man
promptly took the bet.
Thereupon TIE first young man care
funy placed an EGG IN a corner Of the
room. just where the walls made
right angle. So that il WAS impossible
for the other 70 hit tie egg with m
ordinary barrel.
Then tie FIRST young man proceeded
to gloat.
But the other suddenly produced
revolver and broke the egg by tapping
It smartly with the barrel Of the weap-
ON. Then he demanded the money.
There was quite a dispute naturally.
Finally the Two agreed TO submit the
question to the editor Of a sporting pa
per. I'm Cu, time the answer came.
The sportir- authority decided that the
second ycung man was the winner Of
tho hot. since the other had not sHeci-
fed in amy way what Kind of barrel
should bc used for the destruction OF
the e-g-Npw York Times.

it is supposed to have been caused by
the sting of some insect.
