ATLANTIS.

Out in the chill seas of yesterday,
Where the waters are arching and
break in tear-spray,
And the bent of the waves that
come crashing in pain
Are the sob-throbs of anguish and
souls gone insane,
There's a dear little island--the
Land of We Two,
Calling to me, sweetheart-calling
of you.
Back Ger the waters and through
the tear spray,
Saddened and gIaddened I'm sail
ing away;
Back to the Land of You Must and
You Can't,
Back to the game with it's big rule
of Shan't;
Dear little island and wonderful
one,
Why in the world were you ever
begun?
Herbert Kaufman.

What the Ears Indicate.

The thin. angular enr is said To de-
note bad temper and cruelty.
Small and thin ears usually denote
delicacy and refinement
AS age increases the ear becomes
more angular and marked.
People with musical tastes generally
have large and prominent ears
Abnormally large. thick ears are "s-
sociated with sensual and coarse IA
ture
Great philosophers and statesmen
have been noticed To have large aud
sloping ears.

THE CLOCK OF DEATH.
1t Was the First Astronomical Time
piece Made In England.

piece maoe IN England.
The clock at Hampton court palace
derived its unpleasant title by reason
of a superstition that whenever any
one long resident in the palace dies the
clock Immediately stops. 1t is of rec
ord that when Anne of Denmark. the
queen of james l.. died the old time
piece was striking four and that 1t
stopped almost before the last stroke
sounded. Since that time it is said to
have repeated this grisly proceeding
each time Il royal parsonage within its
jurisdiction died
At any rate. the clock has an inter
eSting history quite aside from this. 1t
was the first astronomical timepiece
made in England. being constructed in
1910 for Henry VIII. Thirty-two years
ago it was brought out of a shed where
in it had lain neglected for nearly half
a century. and by order Of the then
secretary of the office of works 1t was
regretted in the courtyard opposite the
entrance to the state apartments.
There is historical evidence to the eff
feet that it was built by one Nicholas
Crater. German astronomer who
came to England at the invitation of
Cardinal Wolsey.
This old timepiece tells the hour. the
month. the day of the month. the po-
sition of the sun and the number OF
days since the beginning Of the year,
the phases of the moon and its age,
the hour at which it crosses the merid
ian and the time of high water at Lon
don bridge The time required to wind
it is half an hour every week. The
weights have a descent of over sixty
feet.-Harper's.

THE VANISHING SEA cow.
A Marine Curiosity That Is Rapidly
Nearing Extinction.

a Marine CURIOSITY Ihat 10 hdpioiy
Nearing Extinction.
One of the largest fish that has in
habited the waters of the gulf OF Mex
leo and the south Atlantic coast Of
this country and which is almost ex-
tinct is known as the manatee. 1t was
found in. great numbers a century ago.
and even a few years back this crea-
ture was quite plentiful in certain To-
calities.
1t is very gentle for a large fish and
easily captured in heavy nets. which
are usually stretched across the mouths
of rivers emptying into the south At
lantic or the gulf of Mexico. The flesh
is very delicious and brings a high
price, having a strong resemblance to
the very finest veal. The skeleton Is
valued at 500. and the skin If removed
properly and cared for by those who
understand its properties will bring a
like amount.
This fish is often from ten to twelve
feet in length and weighs about 1000
pounds. 1t is so gentle it will not
strike the light craft that happens to
be near it. and when captured it shows
no resistance whatever.
It is safe to say that in the next
quarter Of a century this creature will
become extinct unless specimens are
preserved simply to prevent the com
plete loss Of one Of our most wonder
full sea creatures.
1t lives wholly on salt water vegeta
ton and growths found in the mouths
of the rivers emptying into the sea-
New York World.

ARRANGEMENTS MADE.

Much interest is being manifested
in the concert to be given Sunday aft
ernoon in the Murray theater for the
benefit of the tuberculosis Hospital
fund, the hour three o'clock.
The fact that it was recently stated
by the Wayne County Society for the
Prevention of tuberculosis that with
one thousand dollars such an institu-
ton could be started led, the director
of this concert to offer to give all the
profits of the latter, after the expenses
had been paid, to the organizations
treasury for the purpose OF starting
fund for such a hospital.
The need of this is recognized by
everyone and it is hoped that this may
result in the amount being later
brought together.
The program will be given by two
we'll known concert artists, Madame
Lawrence, former harp soloist with
the Thomas orchestra and who will
give groups of harp numbers, and j.
Louis Shenk, a baritone singer, wide
ly known for his artistic interpreta-
tions and who recently made a tour
with Mary Garden.
