BOATS OF THE ANcIENTs.
Floating Palaces Used by the Old
Greeks and Romans.


Greeks and Romans.
1t Is generally agreed that Noah's
ark measured about $50 feet in length.
seventy-five feet in breadth and forty
five in depth 1t is interesting to note
that the proportions Of these dimen-
stons are practically the same as those
of the great modern ocean liners
The Greeks and Romans constructed
several large vessels measuring up
ward of 500 feet These were built
for the emperors or rulers and were
little more than enormous scOws, with
out any means of propulsion Upon
these were erected elaborate cabin ac-
commodations, and even gardens were
planted. A Roman bath was installed
on one OF these boats.
A vessel 40 feet in length was built
by Ptolemy which was propelled by
800 rowers. arranged in five banks.
using oars fifty-seven feet In length.
The boat is recorded to have developed
considerable speed.
The fame of the Thalamegus still
lives This boat, which measured 300
feet in length, forty feet in breadth
and sixty in depth, was said to have
been the most beautiful craft in an
tiQuity and was used exclusively by
the emperor.
A king OF Syracuse is also credited
with having built very palatial boat.
whose cabins were hung with costly
silks and decorated with rare statues.
After the decline of the Roman empire
no great ships were constructed for
more than 1000 years

mately fulfilling the tradition that
ships would come TO be 1000 feet long.

PLANT PUZZLES.
What, Fer Instance. Guides the Vine In
Finding Its Support

A plant that actually goes insect
hunting is among the latest of the sci
entific discoveries. 1t is known as the
sundew. Its leaves. covered with ten
tacles, close in upon a fy the moment
It touches them and slowly strangIe it.
This has long been familiar TO the
naturalists, but it now develops that
the plant does not passively wait for
its prey. If hy alights within a half
inch of one of the leaves il slowly APP
proaches the insect until close enough
to lay hold and destroy, thus demon
strating the possession of some sort Of
sense or instinct with which plants are
not usually supposed to be endowed.
Something Of the same sort is mani
tested in that plant parasite, the dod-
der. 1t terminates from seed, sending
out a thin. threadlike growth, which
winds in and out among the grass
stocks until it finally approaches its
natural victim. Then its growth is
greatly accelerated In a sense il fair
ly leaps upon its host and once there
not only fastens to it. but multiplies
with surprising rapidity.
If a stake be driven within a few
inches of n growing sweet pea vine 1t
will be observed that a tendril drops
from a leaf OF the plant In the direc-
ton of the stake. Forthwith the whole
upper shoot of the vine bends In the
same direction, and very soon the ten
drill is able to fasten itself. The same
observation holds more or less true
with all climbing plants.
Vegetation of various kinds sends
roots through distances, sometimes to
be measured in yards. that they may
reach soil or water below. Science is
asking If the sundew knows that the
fly is near.
Has the vine method Of detecting
the proximity of its support?
Does the plant so situated that its
nourishment is lacking realize that far
below it are earth and water?
An affirmative answer involves the
admission of a sense or instinct in veg
citation that corresponds to that in ami
NAL life, and yet those who have stud
led the matter most profoundly give
. that very answer.-Exchange.

TAKING MEDICINE.
There Are Many Ways of Doing IL, bat
Only One Right Way.

Only One Right Way.
Take fluid remedy from a medicine
glass or from a silver spoon. Chemical
action of some liquids upon brass
creates liquid that would be fatal IL
taken into the stomach A good rule
Is never to take medicine from any
thing made of the coarser metals.
While pouring the medicine from
bottle to spoon or cup hold the bottle
so that the label is uppermost- This
will prevent the medicine pouring over
the label and staining If not obliterat-
ing it. This precaution. especially in
the case of liquids that might be HARM
full If taken by mistake or in the
wrong quantity. is imperative.
Unless directions require you to take
medicines full strength. it Is better to
dilute them half and half with water.
Never take doses larger than those
specified In the directions. Better that
they be smaller.
Under no circumstances take medi-
cine in the dark. The reason Is OBJ
vious. Read the frequent news or
deaths of persons who have taken
poisons by mistake.
Be sure never to pour medicine back
into the bottle. Never fail TO shake
the bottle before taking dose OF the
contents. If there be any sign OF sedi-
ment, shake the more.
Unless directed otherwise you would
better take all capsules. pills or tab
lets with a half glass OF water.
Never use a liniment near an open
fame. for a liniment usually contains
some combustible element Always
rub a Eminent into the skin until 1T Is
nearly dry.
Be sure TO brush the teeth afterltak-
ing medicine. since many medicines
contain acids or iron. both or which
are injurious TO the teeth.
Keep effervescent medicines In cool
place.-New York American.

Enver Bey got an idea of the looks
Of his future bride by means of a pho
tograph. This illustrates a difficulty
from which the young Englishman is
free, but which is sometimes very
amazing to the young Turk. He ought
not to see his brides face until he has
actually married her, or at the very
least until he is betrothed. The young
lady, as Duckett Ferriman points out,
can take drive and get glimpse OF
her suitor's face out of doors. But her
face should remain yelled from him,
and, although he generally contrives
to get an idea of her appearance, ii
cannot always be done. Mr.. Ferriman

bride brunette. when he wanted a
blonde.

ACCIDENTS ON THE WATER.
How Pot or Pan or Even Hat May
Be Used a. a Life Preserver.

The worst thing 10 do in an accident
on the water Is To founder around ana
shrek and cry. That expels the air
from the lungs. and then the body
will quickly sink. With this fact un-
derstood we may experlSent with a
number of things to show how little 1t
takes TO support the body The high
silk hat of man contains sufficient air
to keep him from sinking II he grasps
it by the rim and holds 1T upright so
that the air is imprisoned under the
hat. Even a derby hat will support a
half grown boy or girl If held right
Dishpans and buckets or tin pals
can also be used as life preseryers. In
vert these in the water and grasp the
rim with both hands and do not
tip them so the air can escape. Not
long ago a party Of girls out rowing
had their boat upset in a mountain
lake. All Of them except one could
swim. This girl had an umbrella with
her, raised to ward or the suns rays
when the accident occurred Finding
herself in the water some distance
from the boat. she grabbed for the
nearest thing In reach. 1t proved to be
her umbrella, floating with the handle
down in the water. She threw both
arms franticaIly around the open UNI
brella. To her surprise and to that
OF her comrades. she did not sink The
imprisoned air under the umbrella sup
ported her head above the water until
help arrived
The small amount OF air contained
