The name "squaretown" has been
heard In designation Of Adelaide, tho
capital of the state Of South Australia.
When that colony was projected 1t
was established to the utmost detail
on paper before the colonists set sail
from England. The capital was laid
out uron a surveyors drawing board,
and all that remained to do on landing
was to find a fat piece OF ground on
which to drive the stakes. Adelaide Is
composed of four areas, mile IN each
dimension. these areas being parted by
two streets Of noble width. Quite
around the city extends a park land
a mile In width, and this Is maintained
as q perpetual reserve upon which the
only encroachments are such wholly
public establishments as government
house, parliament house and botanic
gardens on the north terrace. the re-
mainder being maintained as park and
recreation grounds.-New York Sun.

Of which are still pointed out at Dun

point Of the mainland OF Scotland
Tradition is not entirely agreed as to
the personality Of John OGroat- One
legend states that he was poor man
who used to ferry passengers over to
the island Of Storma for groat But
the most popular story makes him the
descendant Of a Hollander, De Groot,
who in the reign of James Nv. settled
In the vicinity, and it goes on to tell
how John and his seven cousins would
yearly meet to celebrate the memory
Of their ancestor and have a yearly
quarrel over the question Of preced'
ence until finally John invented q
method Of settling the difficulty. He
built an eight sided house Of one room
with eight windows and eight doors,
and an octagonal table in the center OF
the room. SO that all might enter stimuli
taneously, each to his own door, and
there might be no head Of the table.

been for two things. which he describes
as follows:
First was the baby-a healthy.
charming child-to whom We were In
tensely devoted. For months the baby
was about the only subject we could
agree upon. The other safeguard was
our sense Of humor. ! have since
thought that no two persons should
marry unless one or the other has a

humor usually came to the rescue at

First Game Law.

The first "game law" for the protec-
don Of Wild animals and birds was en-
acted in 1868 by William the Conquer
or. This decree of the Norman king
was called a forest law. but its princi-
pal purpose was the preservation OF
game. Forfeiture Of property was
made the penalty for killing or dis
abling any kind Of wild beast. while
the slayer of a stag, buck or bear. II
convicted, had his eyes put out. These
laws, of course, applied only to the
masses, since the royalty and nobility
were permitted to kill as much as they
pleased. In fact, the principal purpose
Of the pioneer game law" was to pro-
vide sport for the few. The first par
liamentary game law in England was
passed In 1498. Game laws In Ameri-
ca have become increasingly strict Of
late years, but they were adopted too
late to save many species, notably the
buffalo, from almost complete e1tinc-
tion.-New York World.

Tactful Dam Builder.

thirty feet deep In sandy and mo-

go he dug thirty canals. divided the
waters Of the river among them, closed
the river by an earthen dam and COM
pletely controlled 1t. AS he could new
or have induced his wild soldiers to
dig these canals for any useful pur-
pose, he took advantage Of the fact
that his favorite horse had been
drowned In the food and urged his SOL

the waters Of the river in such fash

A Necktie For Fish Bait.

Cigarette papers trailed In the man

mackerel with anything bright when
they are on the run. Perhaps the best
of all bats for them Is strip OF skin
cut from one Of their captured breth'
rem.
A piece of tin or lead foil Is effective.
and once knew man who came back
from mackerel fishing without a vivid.

cied. 1t had made an excellent lure for
the fish. Is 1t that the mackerel is con
