NO. 81.

two Of the glaciers Of the Melville
bay present ocean fronts Of twenty
five or thirty miles, and there are a.
number of nearly equal size in west
ern, southwestern and eastern Green
land.
Owing to the northward set of the
west Greenland current, the bergs Of
this size are carried first to the north
and 1t is only at about the seventy
fourth or seventy-fifth parallel that
they begin to make their way west
ward to come down the American
side" Many Of the east Greenland
bergs follow in the trail Of those
rounding the southern apex of the
great insular land-mass. The lowest
point reached by the bergs In North
Atlantic waters is about forty degrees
in the western half Of the basin; on
eastward, the zone Of distribution,
following largely in the course of Gulf
Stream drift, rise sharply northward.
and entirely clears the coast of Scan
dinavia.
Icebergs are apt to carry much de-
brital material with them, the re-
mains Of part of the placial moraines
which were formed on land. These
on the melting Of the ice, naturally
find their way to the bottom of the
sea, whether deep or shallow, and
help to build up the "bowlder-clay
deposit" somewhat similar to the ba-
sal till of glaciers. The stranding of
bergs on rock masses also tends to
bring about growing and polishing.
again similar to what Is produced by
moving land ice (glaciers).

dishes will dispose Of many flies An
other remedy which for all purposes
probably has no equal Is a solution of
formalin or formaldehyde in water. A
spoonful of this liquid in quarter of
a pint of water left exposed in room
will kill all the flies in it. Flies are
also exceedingly sensitive to light. BY
closing all the blinds of the room ex-
cept one the flies will seek the open
one, when they can be easily driven
out.
In the war against the house fly
cleanliness is the heavy artillery, vigil
lance the machine guns, and determi-
nation the Mausers. If each home Is
made an outpost on the firing line the
most dangerous animal in the world
that kills more human beings than all
the beasts of prey and all the poison
Gus serpents together-will take to its

ABOUT lcEBERGS.
Those Dangerous to Navigation Are
Often Miles In Length.

An iceberg is a detached fragment
or section of glacier, whose termi-
nal foot has reached a body Of water,
whether fresh or salt, and there
broken (calved) off. Fresh water
bergs are those of lakes, and are Of
comparatively rare occurrence, and
never Of large size. The ocean Ice
bergs on the other hand are frequent
ly of very great size. They measure
even miles In length, as those Of parts
of the Antarctic waters and even OF
Melville bay, off the west coast OF
Greenland, and they not infrequently
rise $50 or even 800 feet above the
surface Of the sea. In the case OF the
fat-topped or even-formed bergs, 1t
can readily be inferred from the speci-
fic gravity of ice that they at times
descend fully 1900 or 1900 feet or
more into the abyss of the ocean. and
it is a common condition to find the
larger bergs stranded or anchored at
this depth to the floor Of the sea. The
pinnacled or fancy-shaped bergs are
usually those which have undergone
considerable weathering or beating up
by the sea, and are thus necessarily
of smaller size than those Of even
contour.
1t Is a common statement that the
Antarctic bergs differ from those OF
the Arctic by their larger and more
generally tabular form, but those diff
ferences are not fundamental and are
hardly more than comparative. But
it may be questioned whether all the
larger detached masses Of Ice In the
Arctic ocean are, indeed, true glacial
bergs. Many of them might we'll be
accumulated sea-ice, formed by ac-
cretional growth independent of any
assisting land mass.
The source Of practically all the
icebergs Of the Arctic and sub-Arctic
waters, is Greenland, from whose Ice
cap radiate off hundreds of gla-
ciers, the vast majority Of which, at
least those Of larger size up reach the
sea. either directly or through the
long jords which extend twenty to
seventy miles into the land. One or

A case in South Carolina, in which
death resulted from an attempted
heroic act, was recognized by the hero
fund commission, was that of William
F. Leland. aged q, boat captain. He
died attempting to save from drowning
David Simpson, colored, aged 25, q
deck hand, near McClellanville, on
May "a. 1911. Leland jumped from a
river boat into Jeryme creek, and In
water fifteen feet deep, swan ninety
feet to Simpson, who had fallen over
board. Leland caught Simpsons
hands. the latter's head appeared above
the surface momentarily, and then
both sank and were drowned" To Le-
lands father was awarded q bronze
medal, together with $3.50.
Disasters Bring Out Brave Men.
In glancing through the records of
the heroic acts recognized by the COM
mission, and rewarded, 1t Is seen that
there is generally a series of such
awards in connection with many of the
great food and mine disasters which
aroused the attention of the entire
country at the time of the occurrence.
No awards are noted, however, in the
IN ha
storm which swept Charleston last Au-
gust.
In addition to these individual
awards, the fund has been used for re-
lief work in a number of the more
serious disasters, which have occurred
since 1t was established. The Grover
factory disaster, at Rrocktan, Mass,
in 1905, brought forth donation Of
$4,000 for relief work, The California
earthquake. in 1906, caused the COM
mission to expend s64,462 for relief.
Thirty-five thousand dollars was ex.
pended at the Monongan mine disaster,
in West Virginia, In 1907. The Darr
mines d'7aster, In Pennsylvania,
brought a contribution Of $4,000, in
1907. In 1908. $4,000 was expended at
the Lick Branch mine disaster, In West
Virginia. Fifteen thousand dollars was
contributed for the relief Of sufferers
in the Mulga and Palos mine disasters
in 1910, at Mulga and Palos, Ala.
In all, the commission has expended
100000 for educational purposes, this
amount going in two donations, to the
Carnegie institute, at Pittsburg, Pa.

Nagel, secretary of the department Of
commerce and labor, is tall man, re-
sembling in his build an isolated pine
tree on the top of hill. Returning to
Washington one night from New York
he got past the taxicabs and was sur
rounded by a. group Of hackmen, to
whom he paid absolutely no attention,
as he intended to walk the fourteen
blocks to his office.
The hackmen greeted him with
storm of such cries as:
Take you right uptown! Take you
to the New willard! Take you to the
Raleigh!"
The statesman walked straight
ahead without even looking at the be-
siegers.
IF you want a cheap hotel, jump
right in here" insisted another driver.
Still Nagel walked on, unheeding.
Finally a Jehu dressed him thus:
Deaf and dumb asylum! Take you
up there in a minute!"
AT this Mr.. Nagel laughed and got

A Negro a Hero.

Boyce Lindsay was q South Carolina

hero fund through an act Of heroism.
The occurrence took place on May 2S,
1910, at Spartanburg. He was 16 years
old a delivery boy. He saved F..
Reynolds Smith, aged II, from being
run over by train. STOPPING over
one rail before an approaching string
of box cars, when the front car was
but four feet distant, Lindsay flung
Smith from the middle of the track,
where he had fallen from his bicycle.
AS he was tightening up to get back
from the track, Lindsay was struck on
the right shoulder, and whirled around
