actual time record of the work done
for a long period In an English coal
mine.
The Sunday stone," as it is called,
was removed from a colliery drain.
When the miners were at work the
water running through the drain left
a deposit colored black by the coal
dust, but when no work was being
done the water ran down clear and left
a white deposit. These deposits in the
course Of time built up the stone.

A Glover Crow.

As to a crows ability to talk, said a
naturalist. some will and others will
never learn. The first Of the four
birds have had recently was a Won
derful talker. Unlike the parrot. his
conversation seemed intelligent rather
than simply initiative. For instance,
If I said to him, "Hello, JACKIE" he
would answer, Hello" and not put
on the Jack" as so many parrots do
when one says, "Hello, Polly"
But he could initiate me also. BE
found that when any one called and
said, "Hello. Wood! my reply was. a
low ''Hell0! He tried In every way
to initiate that low tone of mine and
finally succeeded. he would 60 over
to bis water trough and with his head
In the air would cry, "Hello. Wood!'
Then down would 60 his head in the
trough, and out would come the "Hel-

Temperature Of Sea Water.

The temperature of ocean water va
ries at the surface from % degrees F.
at the poles to over 80 degrees F. in
the tropics. The cold water toward
the poles has an annual variation of
less than 10 degrees F. at any one spot.
and the warm water Of the tropics
also has an annual variation Of less
than 10 degrees F. in a band that near
" encircles the earth. This is the re-

tween these regions Of small annual
variation there are two bands sur
rounding the earth where the annual
variation Is greater and may exceed In
certain regions 40 degrees E. at any
one spot.-Marine Journal.

Definition OF Osteopathy.

Osteopathy is a system of treating
disease without drugs by the use OF
the hands to adjust all parts of the
human mechanism to perfect mechan-
ical relations. 1t is that science which
finds in disturbed mechanical rela-
tions of the anatomical parts of the
body the cause of disease, and which
is employed to cure disease by apply
ing technical knowledge and high
manual skill to the correction of all
disturbed relations occurring in the
mechanical arrangement of the body
1t is a science founded upon the
principles of anatomy and physiol-
ogy.
The word does not mean the treat
ment of bones, nor of bone diseases.
1t was used as a name because the
founder discovered the Importance
of disturbances in the bony frame
work of the body in causing disease.
He studied the skeleton as the foun-
dation of anatomy, upon which sci
ence he grounded his system. The
meaning of the word applies not only
to arrangements of bony parts, but
as well to disturbed relations of
nerves, ligaments, tendons, blood
vessels, muscles, and of any body tis-
sue,-Journal of Osteopathy.

They are wrong who assert that a
majority of American newspapers will
support the proposed reciprocity
treaty with Canada, in the hope of
forcing the paper mills to lower the
price of print stock, Unless reciproc-
ity shall benefit the whole American
people. the newspapers will not profit
by a reduction in the price of white
paper. Every commodity is dear
when money is scarce and the people
are not prosperous. The Observer
would like to buy it's print stock
cheaper-but not at the expense of
the American farmer. This is the at
titude Of thousands of publishers,
who, while finding the cost Of blank
paper burdensome, are yet doubtful of
the wisdom of adopting the proposed
treaty with our good neighbors on
