Lumbsrman's SLANG.

No other industry, perhaps. furnishes
so many original. peculiar and inter-
esting words and phrases of techni-
cal-cum-slangy nature as the lumber
industry Of Canada. Timber tracts.
says Canada, are divided into Limits"
or births" The growing timber on a
tract is stand" and the contents of a
stand" are measured in "feet"-a
"foot'' being a board one foot square
by one inch thick and not q cubic foot.
To make survey Of a stand Of timber
is to "cruise'' it. the man who does the
work is "cruiser," and his report
thereon is cruise Trees are
failed" and the man who falls
them is sawyer" A man who
works in lumber camp is known as
"lumberjack" or "shanty man."
When going up to camp he speaks of
going up to the shanties.'' Timber
tracts that have suffered from the i'll
effects Of forest fires are said to be
"brooly." which is, of course. cor.
ruption Of "brule" (burnt).

Spiders and the Stars,

Spiders as an aid to astronomy are
recognized to such an extent that GER
tain species are cultivated solely for
the fine threads they weave. No sub
stitute for the spiders thread has yet
been found for bisecting the screw of
the micrometer used for determining
the positions and motions of the stars.
Not only because of the remarkable
fineness of the threads are they val
liable, but because of their durable
qualities. The threads of certain
spiders raised for astronomical pur-
poses withstand changes in tempera-
ture, so that often in measuring sun
spots they are uninjured when the heat
is so great that the lenses Of the mi
crometer eyepieces are cracked. These
spider lines are only one-6fth to one
seventh of thousandth of an inch in
diameter, compared with which t.
threads Of the silkworm are large and
clumsy.

It Makes Difference In Which Land
. Ono Travels This Distance.
If you take a notion to settle down
for time and after you have been
whisked out and back in a motorcar
you think to ask how far the house is
from the station the agent carelessly
waves his hand and airily remarks.
About mile." you had best take heed
as to what country you are in at the
time.
If it is in England you are all right,
for the familiar 1.76O yards is the
standard, but if you have taken
fancy to some sod matched Irish
cottage it means a tramp of 2,24O
yards. and if you are moved to inger
in the highlands remember that the
Draw Scot calls 1876 yards a mile.
Considering the size of Switzerland.
one might expect mile to be about
as far as one could throw a ball, but
the hardy mountaineers think 9,153
yards the proper thing, even when, as
it generally is. it is very much uphill.
The Swiss is the longest mile Of all,
being followed by the Vienna post
mile of 1926 yards
The Flemish mile is $500 yards, the
Prussian 1921 yards, and in Denmark
they walk S,244 yards and call it a
stroll of mile. The Arabs generally
ride good horses and call 2, 143 yards a
with 1926 yards, and the Italians
shorten the distance of mile to 1,766
yards, just six yards more than the
American has in mind when the agent
waves his hand and blandly remarks,
About mile."-Chicago Record Her.

The glowworm is not a worm. but a
species of beetle. to which the COM
mon freely or lightning bug is closely
related. The true glowworm is the
female and is without wings. Its
short legs and long body give it a
vermiform appearance. and it can
withdraw it's triangular head into it's
neck. The adult insect feeds but lit
tie. Indeed, there Is reason to sup
pose that the adult male does not feed
at all. The larva, on the other hand.
is carnivorous and devours small mol
luscs. either dead or alive. The light
given out by the glowworm comes
from yellowish substance located
on the underside of the abdomen.
Though this light appears to glow
steadily, it is really intermittent. con-
sisting of flashes in quick succession,
about 100 to a minute. Besides the
ordinary light rays. Rontgen rays are
emitted.

The Benevolent Butler.

A Calcutta correspondent reports "a
truly horrible incident" which befell
an English lady. Her butler was in
the habit Of calling loudly beneath her
window every evening about Z. His
cry suggested that he was calling Ell
Their the cattle or the chickens home;
but. though she had neither. the lady
for some time took no notice until
one evening. having the curiosity to
look, she was Mortified to see the but
Ter, like a dusky pied piper, surround
ed by troop Of rats.
There were quite fifty of them. from
the big bandicotes to small muskrats.
all being fed on the remains of her
soup, meat and other bits. In plague
country this was an amusement that
was speedily ended.-Times of India.

Tho Name Of London.

The old name for the city of London
was Lynden or Llynden. meaning the
city by the lake. An old tradition
gives us to understand that London
was founded by Brute, a descendant
of Aeneas. and that it was first called
New Troy or Troynovant. In the time
Of Lud it was surrounded by a wall
and was then known as Lud's Town,
or Caer-Lud. This latter is probably
the correct version Of the origin of the
name Of London if for no other rea-
son because it is such an easy matter
to detect similarity between the ex-
pressions London and Lud's Town. 1t
is claimed by some writer's that there
was a city on the present site Of Lon
don in the year 1107 B. c., and it is
known that the Romans founded city
there and called it Londinium in the
year G1 A. D.

ICEBERG GROUPINGS.
Clusters and Long Lines Formed by
Storms and Ocean Currents.

Clusters and Long Lines Formed by
Storms and Ocean Currents.
Among the perils and wonders of the
ocean there are few more interesting
things than icebergs. interesting not
only by reason of their gigantic size,
their fantastic shapes, their exceeding
beauty. but also for the manner where
in they array themselves.
1cebergs exhibit tendency to form
both clusters and long lines, and these
groupings may arise from the effects
both Of ocean currents and Of storms.
Some very singular lines of bergs.
extending for many hundreds Of miles
east of Newfoundland, have been
shown on official charts issued by the
government. Two Of these cross each
other, each keeping on it's independent
course after the crossing. In several
instances parallel lines of bergs leave
long spaces of clear water between
them.
Curiously enough, while enormous
fields of ice invade the so called
steamship lanes" of the Atlantic at the
opening of spring during certain years.
in other years at that season there is
comparatively little ice to be seen.
The ice comes. Of course. from the
edges Of the arctic regions. from the
icebound coasts of Greenland and
Labrador, where huge bergs, broken
from the front of the glaciers at the
point where they reach the sea. start
on their long journeys toward the
south, driven by the great current
that flows from Baftin bay into the
northern Atlantic ocean. - Harper's
Weekly.

RESTORE GRAY HAIR
TO NATURAL COLOR
By Common Garden Sage, a Simple
Remedy for Dandruff, Falling, Fad
ed, Gray Hair.

The old idea of using sage for
:darkening the hair is again coming in
vogue. Our grandmothers used to
have dark, glossy hair at the age of
seventy-fve, while our mothers have
white hair before they are fifty. Our
grandmothers used to make a sage
tea and apply it to their hair. The
tea made their hair soft and glossy,
and gradually restored the natural
color.
One objection to using such prep
aration was the trouble of making
it, especially as it had to be made
every two or three days, on account
of souring quickly. This objection
has been overcome, and by asking
almost any frst-class druggist for
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy the public can get superior
preparation of sage, with the admix-
ture of sulphur, another valuable
remedy for hair and scalp troubles.
Daily use of this preparation will not
only quickly restore the color of the
hair, but will also stop the hair from
falling out and make it grow.
Get bottle from your druggist to-
day. Use it and see for yourself how
quickly dandruff goes and gray hairs
vanish.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all drug
giSts.
