When "A ship disappears beneath

that it viii never be seen again 1t
may rise after a few days or even a
few hours and continue afoat for
months, aSconstant menace to navi-
| cation. This, of course, applies
only to wooden ships. When an iron
ship goes down it stays down.
Some years ago a coal laden
schooner coIlided with an unknown
vessel in a thick fog at night a hun
dred miles from Cape Hatteras.
The unknown continued on her way
and was swallowed up in the fog,
but the schooner, with a great hole
torn in her bows, began to settle,
and her crew was launAhing the
boats when seen and rescued by a
passing southern liner. The aban-
,doned ship was then two-thirds full
of water and bows under. In less
than ten minutes after the crew
had been taken off the schooner's
stern rose in the air, and she made
her final plunge. As she went down
the deck blew up with a noise like
thunder. Two months later she
was sighted floating bottom up be-
low Cape Hatteras, drifting south in
the trend of the gdlf stream. The
explanation of her resurrection was
q simple one. Her cargo had shift
ed forward when the bow tilted
down with the inrush of the water
and the rolling of a rough sea. AS
she went down the coal ran out
through the great hole there before
she reached the bottom, and, re-
lieved of its weight, she rose again,
turning turtle as she did so. A ship
with a broken back is also likely to
rise as soon as her cargo floats out
or disintegrates under the action Of
the salt water.
A wreck in ballast or with light
cargo drifts with bows from the
waves if there is no current worth
mentioning, but in a strong, swift
current the bow will face In the op-
posite direction to that in which the
current is moving.
A ship bottom up will float with
about an eighth of the depth of her
hull out of water and in a heavy sea
will lie lengthwise of the waves.
When a ship has been down long
enough to become thoroughly wa
terlogged and riddled by worms it
never rises again from its ocean
grave.-New York Press.

BaIzae at Work.

The most extraordinary of all lit
erary workmen was the French nov
clist Balzac. When engaged on a
novel he retired from all contact
with the world and saw no one but
his printer. He began his daily
task at Q o'clock in the morning, his
desk brilliantly lighted with candles.
Clad in a black robe, he sat down
and worked away, drinking great
cups of black coffee as a stiimulant.
No matter how much daylight there
was on the outside, none of it was
permitted to enter his room. When
thoroughly exhausted he would re-
tire for refreshment and sleep and
the next morning at 2 o'clock would
again seat himself at his desk. Thus
for weeks and sometimes for months
he would go on until his work was
completed. Then he would retire
to the country or take a journey
for recuperation and rest.

His One Brother.

One of the most curious instances
Of longevity is found in Miss Louisa
Courtenay's 'Notes Of an Octoge-
marian" A witness in a will case
in which Bellenden-Ker, the great
English conveyancer, was engaged
was asked if he had any brothers OF
sisters. He replied that he had had
one brother who died $50 years ago.
The court expressed incredulity, and
documentary evidence was produced
in support of the statement. This
showed that the witness father, who
married first at the age of nineteen,
had q son who died in infancy. The
father married again at the age of
seventg-five and had a son who
lived to appear in the witness box
at the age of ninety-four and made
the above startling statement.

Why Paparhanaarn.

Wall paper does not hang, and yet
the person whose business it is to
paste it up is called a paperhanger.
The reason is simple. Long before
the introduction of wall papers Ar
ras, a town in France, was famous
for Its tapestries, called "Arras." /"
These were used as wall coverings,
and the men who were employed to
put them up were called dangers. /"
When paper succeeded tapestries as
a mural decoration the name chang
ers" stuck to the men, though in
stead of being tapestry hangers they
were now paperhangers.

Queer supsrsaitiOas Of the Vsddas 81
csyton.


ceyton.
DR.. C. G. Selgman, writing in
Travel and Exploration, throws
some interesting light on the beliefs
and superstitions of the Veddas, the
strange hill tribes and cave dwellers
Of Ceylon: although there is no
clearly formulated idea Of a death
contagion, the rapidity with which
all Veddas leave the place where a
death has occurred and avoid it for
years shows that some evil quality
is associated with dissolution. Ac-
cording to most Veddas, the spirit
of every dead man, woman or child
becomes a 'yaka' plural 'yakuO
within a few days after death.
Some Veddas, however, say that
when ordinary folk die they cease
utterly and that a surviving part,
which becomes a yaka, exists only
in the case of especially strong, en-
ergetic or skilled men, who have
shown their strength of character
in this world or who have had the
power of calling the yaku during
their lifetime.
"Since each Vedda community
consists Of a small number of fami-
lies, usually related by blood and
marriage, the yaku of the recent
dead-called collectively the ne va
ku-are supposed to stand toward
the surviving members of the group
in the light of friends and relatives,
who, if well treated, will continue
their loving kindness to their sur
vivors, and only if neglected will
show their disgust and anger by
withdrawing their assistance or
even becoming actively hostile;
hence it is generally considered
necessary to present an offering to
the newly dead, usually within a
week or two of death. This offering
must consist of cooked rice and Co
coanut milk, the food that every
Vedda esteems above all other, but
betel leaves and areca nuts are often
added.
"1n each community there is one
man, called kapurale,' OF tduggana-
wa who has the power and mowl-
edge requisite to call the yaku, and
this man calls upon the yaka of the
recently dead man to come and take
the offering. The yaka comes, and
the kapurale becomes possessed by
the yaka of the dead man, who
speaks through his mouth in hoarse,
cultural accents, stating that he ap-
proves the offering and will assist
his kinfolk in hunting and often
definitely indicating the direction
in which the next hunting party
should go. One or more of the near
relatives may also become possessed.
Soon after the spirit leaves the
kapurale the rice is eaten by the as
sembled folk"

We hear much about modern .ex-
traRagance on the part of the rich,
in'the matter Of wearing apparel
especially. One might suppose that
theutmost expenditure OF a wealthy
manor woman for a single suit IN
the-eighteenth century was no more
than 800 at the nest and that
these suits served year after year.
Nothing Of the kind
Ini 1870 Nile. de TOurnOn was
married IN Paris. The wedding was
an elegant but not q phenomenal
one1as those days went Her court
gown was Of white velvet, elaborate
~ embroidered, and cost $500
nearly "a 900 Of our money. This
gown could be worn but few times,
and the chemicals now used, for
cleaning and refreshing fine fabrics
had mot yet been discovered. She
had several other gowns ct prices
varying from e150 to e400, and her
aunt. gave her E700 for ~fans, bags
and garters." ;"
Mme.sde Verrue, who in not by
any means a prominent person in
history, had 500 dozen cambria
handkerchiefs and other things to
correspond, and this cambric, hand
woven, hadno cotton intermixture.
And the men were as extraEagant
as the women. Such a suit as was
required by the guest at a fashion
able wedding cost 5000, and he
needed three of them. The most
inexpensive; kind of black suit cost
f25 or rs30, half a dozen hats at FL
apiece we're meme too many, and a
gentleman, ordinarily must possess
silk stockings, woolen stockings
and leather stockings and five or six
different kinds of boots, these be-
ing made necessary by the prevail
ing style of knee breeches. A man
Of fashion could get along with siI
summer and six winter suits at f100
apiece, which does not include the
gold and silver buttons and the lace.
And besides all!this the barber and
vigmaker cost his lordship several
pounds a year. He might or might
not wear jewels, but diamond rings,
pins, jeweled sword Ailts, snufbOxes,
knee buckles and shoe buckles were
not uncemmon. And as for lace,
men as well as women wore any
amount Of that.
The fact is that wealth is much
more evenly, distributed today than
it ever was before. One would have
to 90 into senibarbarous countries,
to find anySOdyihving nowadays un-
der the conditions which the peas
ants of England and; France lived
under while all this fine dressing
and dining went on Abundance of
heat, light and hot. and cold water
are the luxu1ies Of today; fscile
transportation, increased hearth and
vigor, increased .comfsrt of dNly liv-
ing. We spend our money on these
things instead Of silk, velvet and
lace, and it pays hetter~Gas Logic.
