Seeing Lions.

ITO see the lions of the town." is
a phrase in everyday use and of very
ancient English origin. During six
centuries, dating from the time OF
Edward Ill, one of the sights of
London most eagerly sought out by
people from the rural districts and
travellers as well, was the lion menag-
erie of the tower.
When lions were substituted on the
English shield for the leopards, the
animals in the tower were changed
to accord.
The three lions were named for
three living kings, and the fortune of
each king was supposed by many to
be closely bound UP with the fate of
the tower animal which bore his
name. The lions accordingly were
treated with the srsatest respect and
consideration, and their keepers were
always, according to the old records,
gentlemen"
After some time the lions were re-
moved to the Geological gardens at
Regent park

Americans More Efficient.

AS a result of an exhaustive inves-
tigation into seventeen industries of
the United States and Great Britain
by the American bureau of foreign
and domestic commerce, the state
ment is made that IS per cent. more
power and two and one-haf times
more labor is necessary to do piece
of work in Great Britain than is re-
quired in the United States. This is
a factor that has never before been
taken into consideration in the dis

An Illuminating projectile recently
perfected by the Krupp company in
Germany is designed to replace search
lights in military operation, as search
lights offer good targets for the enemy
and are often destroyed. The projec-
