A Unique leo Fountain.

\ In the parks and public places in the
colder parts Of Germany a not uncom-
mon object In winter is the SO called
Ice fountain. a rugged pyramid Of ice
many feet in height, which glistens In
the winter sun and is most effective.
It is constructed as follows:
A fir tree of suitable dimensions and
dense growth is placed upright in the
ground or in a circular pond where
there is water fountain, and a water
pipe with a fairly fine rose is fixed to
the stem SO that the rose is at the top.
The water is then allowed to run
slowly, generally at night when there
Is a frost. and In the morning it is
turned or again. The water freezes as
1t trickles over the branches, and after
two or three nights severe frost the
tree is entirely enveloped In ice. A
well frozen ice fountain will last some
days even when thaw has set in, and
1t can always be touched up on the re-
turn of the frost by turning on the wa.
ter again.

BURIED ALIVE FORTY DAYS.
Queer Test a Hindu Fakir ls Said to

DIR. Konigberger, physician in the
Punjab, doubling the frequently re-
peated stories Of the Hindu fakirs who
claimed to be able to sustain life for a
considerable time after burial in the
earth by the process known as "swal-
lowing the tongue" determined to
make the most rigid tests and exclude
all possible fraud.
One of these Brahman fakirs allowed
himself to be buried by the doctor and
his suspicious colleagues in well
fastened ana sealed vault The burial
lasted such long time FOR forty days
that some corn planted upon the soil
above the vault sprouted before the
unhappy fellow was released. Then
the Hindu was freed, subjected by the
doctor to restoratives and lived happily
ever afterward.

in which the fakir was buried was

arms incrusted with yellow sand:
when checked him for his sloven-

his cntangled curls. he told me he was
a herdsman and went on to explain
that when he tended cattle If he turned
up clean and washed they would have
such fright at the sight OF him that
they would run away. whereas in his
present messy condition they had no
fear Of him whatever. Again, when he
had to milk them, the more begrimed
