EnqIand,s Oldest Clock.

J. J. Hill, F. R. A. C.. and his as- sistants have been engaged for sev- eral months upon repairing the curi- ous astronomical clock placed above the Sylke Chantry in the north tran sept of Exeter cathedral. This quaint horologe, which stood for many cen turies on the north tower, rivals in antiquity the famous clocks of Wells cathedral and Wimborne minister It may have been made in the reign of Edward l. and is certainly not of later date than Edward II. These primitive clocks originally possessed neither pendulum nor minute hand, and were wound up by long spikes sticking out of the wooden barrel, over which the rope went that carried the weight generally big stone. Lord Grim thorpe, the designer of Big Ben," maintained that in other respects there is surprisingly little difference between the oldest of these machines and most turret clocks of the present day."-Dundee Advertiser

HOW TO REDUCE THE FLEst
tience Are Necessity-Redu- cling the Diet.

Strenuous methods are methods de- handing patient, unceasing self-con- trol and deprivation. They must not be foolish methods, if one is to pre- serve ones health. Too rapid reduc- tion is decidedly dangerous for any one, and any reduction is dangerous, without the advice of a physician, for one who is not well. Moreover, every individual must select her own meth cd and learn from experience which one will help her. It is usually a pret- ty safe experiment to cut ones menu in half-one egg instead of two in the morning, one slice of toast instead of two, one helping instead of two at dinner, etc. Most of us undoubtedly eat too much, and reducing the diet. while leaving us hungry at. first most of the time. cannot do any harm if not carried to extremes. Moreover, it is pretty sure to be effectual. If in addition to that we give up starches. sweets, and butter, taking dry toast instead of hot or cold bread, and drinking no water with our meals, the results are bound to be satisfactory Harper's Bazar.

Peculiar Land Law.

Corfu. where a magnificent marble palace belonging to the German em- peror has just been purchased by an American millionaire, can boast of the most peculiar land laws in the world The landlords are nearly all absentees, and their tenants hold the land on a perpetual lease in return for a rent payable in kind and fixed at a certain proportion of the produce.
 Such a tenant is considered a co owner of the soil and he cannot be expelled, except for nonpayment oi rent, bad culture, or the transfer of his lease without the landlords con sent, neither can his rent be raised without his permission. Attempts have been made to alter the law, but both landlord and tenants are appar- ently satisfied with system that dates back to the time of Homer Wide World.

Shock and the Hair.

The iconoclast Is abroad again, and persons who may have been looking ahead to a time when they should ex- perience such fright as would imme- diately turn their hair from natures possibly objectionable color to snowy white seem doomed to disappointment. An important German medical publi- cation, the Deutsche Medizinische Wochenschrift, quotes Doctor Steida as reviving an old more-than-suspicion that whitening of dark hair over night is in reality a sort of withdrawal symptom, due to sudden deprivation of the walnut stain or whatever dye stuff is in daily recourse; whence, ac- cording to Steida, the frequency of alleged cases after incarceration. Doctor Steida says it is no longer be- Iieved by experts that psychic traima ever has caused this transformation Mental shock is extremely common, but blanching of the hair at stroke is so rare that list of alleged cases may be quickly compiled. The expert here quoted admits that psychic shock may appear to cause blanching of the hair within a comparatively short time-a few weeks, perhaps-but he deals only with alleged instantaneous cases.

IN TROPICAL LAND
DELIGHT OF TRAVEL THROUGH
 BOLIVIAN FORESTS.
Deadly Reptiles and Fierce Wild Beasts in Profusion-Myriads of insects That Cause the Most
 Intense Suffering.

There are big snakes in the trefnen- dous tropical forests of eastern Bolivia and concerning one of them Maj. P. H. Fawcett writes in the Geographical Journal: Tt was in this river (the Abuna) that we killed huge anacon- da. whose dimensions have, I observe, aroused skepticism in some quarters. It was coiled around a trunk and part ly out of the water The Indians were most anxious that we should not shoot, as these reptiles are said to attack small boats if irritated It measured approximately 48 feet out of the wa, ter, and we estimated another IT feet in-far too colossal a reptil to skin even could we have carried or pre- served such a thing, or the Indians had been willing to operate. That il was an uncommon size is probable that 1t is exceptional, I doubt; for the tracks of these reptiles from the swamps, whence they emerge by night, suggest prodigious size The Bra gillian boundary commission in Corum ba told me of one killed near that town measuring 85 feet"
 There are other creatures than ana condas in those forests, however, the major writes again: "The jaguar is common enough, particularly in cattle districts. He is usually cowardly, but In places is man-eater. There are two varieties, one the size of a big leopard, the other somewhat larger than Bengal tiger In the cattle dis tricts of Mojos and the Paraguay, 1t is common sport among the gauchos to lasso these beasts. The black panther Is, however, universally dreaded He Is rare and have seen only one skin The anaconda Is ubiquitous and haunts rivers, swamps anC lagoons. It moves by night and has a weird cry The rattlesnake, or cascabella, and other species of poisonous snakes are about as abundant as such reptiles are in h. dia, but are rarely met with in the dry season. Insects are legion. Mos quitoes, of course; roca-roca, a mi croscopic fly which at times makes ob- servation work by night almost impos- sible; marigwis, or the Portuguese plum, which in the dry season attacks in thousands; wasps and bees.
 oSSS uO nol suggest any SeTlOuS ulS comfort. Yet in places one is covered from head to foot by them, inside ones clothes and outside; in one's ears. nose. eyes. hair and mouth if 1t is opened, pungent odored and seeking salt precipitation. Feeding by day un- der such circumstances is out of the question. If I could describe the mis- cry born sometimes of these flying and crawling pests 1t would be thought a travellers tale. There are jiggers for the toes; ticks in myriads; guanacos. a small white insect. something like tick, only with an infinitely more irri tating bite; microscopic ticks, which burrow and die under the skin: venom ous giant spiders. vampire bats and ants"

LACE HEADPIEcE A NOVELTY
Becoming Innovation That Bids Fair to Retain Popularity for Some
 Time.

One of the features for the hats for formal wear is the round piece of lace that is attached to the inside of a large shape just as bandeau Is used. It falls in soft folds over the hair and looks quite like the lacy edge of-save the markI-a breakfast cap But you have no idea of the becomingnessfo fof this innovation. Pretty features 7 pear more lovely under the softening halo of tulle or lace, and other faces are vastly improved by the medium be- tween them and the felt or satin crown of large hat.
 Black, white or metallic lace is used for this frill that Is arousing comment. Tiny rosebuds of narrow ribbon or small silk flowers are worked into the lace, lessening the contrast and harmo- nizing with the plumes or lace trim ming on the outside of the chapeau- Is attached before the lining is adjust ed. although a few milliners have ar ranged for change of lace by series of loops and buttons.
 How did this originate? Why, prob ably from the fancy turban headdress of lace trimmed with flowers that Parisiennes wore in the summer in evenings. At all events, sustained by the knowledge that a hat with this in- ner frill was awarded first prize at the great exhibition of chapeaux. it comes as something new and bids fair to be adopted.
