Pleased His Majesty.

The dark monarch from sunny At
RIGA was being shown over an engi-
neering establishment in an English
city by the manager, who in explain
ing the working of certain machinery
unfortunately got his ceattails caught
in it and in moment was being
whirled round at so many revolutions
per minute. Luckily for the manager
his garments were unequal to the
strain of more than few revolutions
and he was hurled, disheveled and
.dazed, at the feet of the visitor.

A Fish with Teeth on His Tongue.

a Fish With Teeth on His Tongue.
The biggest of fresh water fishes,
the 'arapaima'' of the Amazon, in
South America, which grows to six
feet in length, has teeth on its tongue,
SO that the latter resembles the file
and is used as such. Some kinds of
trout also have the same popularity.
Fishes that swallow their prey entire
have their teeth so supported on f1exi-
BILE bases as to bend backward, but
not forward, in order that their vic
tins shall not escape after they have
been once seized. In ages gone by
there were ferOciOus sharks, seventy
feet in length, such as would make
mouthful of you without blinking.
Plenty of their teeth have been found
which are five inches long, whereas
the biggest of the teeth belonging to
sharks that exist at the present day
are one and a half inches long
Speaking of extinct creatures reminds
.us that all of the early birds-those
of early geological times, that is-had
teeth. with which. they captured the
early worms of the same period. Be
ing descendant from reptiles. it is nat
ural that they should possess a dental
equipment. but when they ceased to
be carnivorous they had no teeth any
longer.

TOBACCO USED AS MONEY
In the African Interior Kentucky
Leaf Is Battered to the Natives
for Their Products.

Kentucky leaf tobacco is now put up
for the African trade. In the int.
rior of Africa leaf tobacco is practi-
.cally used in place of money to bar
ter with the natives for their prod.
ucts.
The wants of the natives are few.
Food and most of their clothing are
supplied by nature. They follow the
primitive custom of acquiring per
soaal property in the form of cattle,
wives and children, and depending on
the children in old age for support.
They give little thought to laying
aside anything for use in illness or old
age.
In the interior, traders say, the ma
tives often refuse money in exchange
for their products, but will take to.
bacco, spirits, cotton goods, etc. In
fact, in some parts of the interior to
bacco is an absolute necessity in
trading with the natives.
This tobacco is generally retied In
smaller bundles SO that the African
merchants car figure out how the dis
tribution Of this tobacco would cal
culate, and to facilitate those calcu
lations the tobacco is tied in various
styles, that is, SO many bundles to the
pound, from four to ten as desired
The relying and manipulation of Ken
lucky leaf has become as specialized
as the manufacture of tobacco.-The
