Coral Reefs Inland.

Mention of coral reefs brings to ones
mind picture of palm dotted islets
girt with white sands In tropical

the midst Of great continents. These.
of course, belong to past age Of the
earth's history. but on that account
they are the more interesting. Within
late years several remarkable reefs Of
fossil coral have been explored near
cambridge. on the Flint river, III

coral heads. some Of which were more
than foot in diameter Between

A Queer Australian Bird.

In Australia lives member of the
crow family called the white winged
enough, which builds mud nest In
trees. It's arched and pointed beak Is
longer than its head, and its tail Ia
rounded. Although the choughs which
build mud nests live only in Austria
liza. yet other birds Of the same name
are found on the British seacoasts,
living among high cliffs. The bird has
many traits Of its cousin, the crow.
1t Is easily tanned. extremely curious
and pliers as crows do Its long
hawklike claws enable 1t TO cling easi-
~ to tree or rock, but it seems I'M
willing ever to set foot on the turf. 1t
lives In societies like rocks and feeds
on insects, berries and grain.

Once upon time there lived king
who was said TO be so wise that he
could answer every question that was
put to him, SO people came from far
and near to ask his advice when they
were In perplexity, trouble or difficulty.
One day there came an old woman,
tired and travel stained, and, bowling
low before his majesty, she said.

swer me question:"
Speak on" said the king.

woman, having two eyes and two

You have two ears that you may hear

Curved Bridges Of Japan.

Curved bFid9eS OF Japan.
The curved bridges Of Japan are of
three kinds first, those known as
spectacle bridges, with an arch In the
center suggesting a pair Of spectacles;
second, the camel back bridges. which

binary one arch, semicircular bridges
The reason the japanese SO often have
curved bridges Is because until mod.
ern times they could not build them

stone to the japanese arches. They
are not generally familiar with the
keystone. A great many Of two classes
Of bridges--the camel back and the

The Crust and the Crumbs.
In the days when the bread loaf"
was dear careful mothers had a set Of
thrifty sayings which are seldom
heard In this time of the big cheap
loaf Crumbs were regularly swept
UP and kept for some useful purpose.
II a child threw crumbs in the fire
the old fashioned mother lifted warn
ing finger and said, III you throw
crumbs in the fire you are feeding the
devil" Children were told that the
better part of loaf was the crust
and when a child was sent to the shop
for bread the order was to ask for "A
crusty loaf" III a child left Its crust,
came the warming: Yes, my lady Tor

FOR THE CHILDREN
What the CoIors Of Buoys Mean.

When you enter any harbor in the
world where the channel is marked by
buoys You win find that those ON your
right as you pass in are painted red
and those on your left black. If You
should see one paAted in red and
black horizontal bands the ship should
run as close to IT as possible, because
that indicates the center OF a narrow
channel.
Buoys with red and black vertical
stripes always mark the end of spits
ard the outer and inner ends of ex-
ieuSiye reefs where there is chan.
nel on each side. When red and black
lockers are painted on buoy 1t
marks either rock in the open sea or

Special.

New York, October 20.
The reaction in the stock market
came, as foreshadowed in my last
weeks letter The pace OF the Two
previous weeks mad been altogether
too rapid, and much of the advance
in that period was quickly lost. Al
though the rise in the market had
been led by very powerful and aggres-
sive interests, yet there remained
exceedingly influential parties not
entirely in sympathy with the advance
AS a result the tax ng OF profits be-
gan on large scale.
Aside from profit taking and man
ipulation an important cause of re-
action rested on monetary develop
ments. Last weeks advance in the
Bank Of England rate concentrated
attention upon the monetary. strain
threatened in London, For months
past foreign experts have been harp
ng upon the probability of none
tary crisis in the United States this
autumn. Singularly enough the situ-
alton has developed so that there is
little or no danger Of a crisis In this
country, and THAT If crisis Is to
occur at all 1t will most probably be
in London, just where the warning
to America has originated.
The Money Situation.
The money market will require
watching. Loans are considerably in
excess Of deposits, an unusual and
undesirable circumstance Prepare
ons are in order for November dis
