Temperature Of Sea Water.

The temperature of ocean water va
ries at the surface from % degrees r.
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 band that near
ly encircles the earth. This is the re
gion Of the coral reefs and atolls Be
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 f. at any
one spot.-Marlne Journal.

When You Break Cut GIaaa,

An accident to cut glass invariably
plunges the owner of 1t into clouds Of
gloom, but often these clouds have sill
yer Innings. Before throwing the
pieces away examine each piece sep
arately and see II 1t could be cut down
into anything smaller. Shops which
deal in cut glass usually have cutter
on the premises. A case is told OF a
bride who upon entering the dining
room arrived IN time to see, but not
prevent, her maid from pulling instead
of pushing the extension table, and as
1t separated In the middle several
pieces Of valuable cut glass which had
been placed there during the cleaning
time fell through with a crash to the
floor. 1t seemed hopeless accident,
but rose bowl was cut down from a
decanter, following the pattern near
the neck. which had broken of: small
violet holder was cut down from a tall
vase, a tiny sugar bowl from vinegar
cruet, and a small bonbon dish was
saved from larger cut glass bowl

The usual account Of how Thack-
cray was dishgured says that Venables
broke the novelist's nose In a fair
fight. John Ward In Notes and Que
ries supplies another version. About
a year after Thackeray's death Mr..
Ward was travelling on one OF the
main railways and had as companions
two old ladies who knew Thackeray
well. One of them said the novelist
had told them this story:
Being one Of the youngest pupils
Cat CharterhOuse), he was chosen by
one of the older lads, a rather proud
aristocrat in his way, to act as his
flag. Thackeray bore 1t as well as he
could, but demurred to some more ar
bitrary command than usual and fatty
refused to obey, whereupon the young
'aristOcrat' caught Thackeray up, held
his head under his arm and with the
heel Of his boot used as a hammer
beat the beautiful aquiline nose quite
fiat with his face-in fact, breaking
and injuring its structure completely
the excuse being, You'll clean my
boots next time, SIR"
Before his injury Thackeray was,
the same authority says, remarkably
handsome.-Westminster Gazette.

Bleak and barren is the west coast of
South America, where it is always
cloudy, yet never rains, where it is
chilly even up under the equator,
where never a tree nor a. blade of
grass is to be seen-only the parched
and hunghy foothills of the Andes,
swept with. windows of sand, and be-
bind them aeeting giimpses of the
towering peaks Of the main mountain
chain. Probably nowhere else in the
world is there seacoast Of equal ex-
tent so desolate and uninviting.
Harbors there are few or none. Co
quimbo, 200 miles north of Valpa-
raiso, and Callao are safe and of com
mercial value. But, although there are
few harbors, there are many ports.
The Pacific ocean, true on this coast,
at least to its name, makes 1t possible
for vessel to anchor almost any
where to take and leave cargo by
means of lighters. Loading and I'M
loading the lighters at the shore are
made possible by artificial breakwaters
or a fortunate conformation Of the
land which affords shelter for small
craft.-New York Post

When Nature Was Timske.psr

In the British museum is a large
stone composed Of carbonate Of lime,
which would serve perfectly as a day
laborer's calendar inasmuch as 1t would
indicate to him every Sunday and holt
day Of the year, though not the day Of
the month. Moreover. the stone is an
actual time record Of the work done
for long period in an English coal
mine.
The Sunday stone" as 1t 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.
Each day of work left black streak,
Immediately followed by white streak
made during the night. Wide white
streaks indicate the holidays and Sun
days.-Harper's Weekly.
