Teaching Under Difficulties.

Whatever teaching was done during
the Civil war was carried on under
difficulties, in so far as ordinary
school supplies were concerned; at
least we judge so from the following
extract from an article on War
Time Expedients' in North Carolina
paper:
For pens we used goose-quills, I'M
less one was fortunate enough to pos
sess a gold one. Ink was homemade,
also; generally the juice of some as
tringent berry, like poke or elder
berry, with the addition of copperas,
For pencils we sometimes used the
sharpened end of a burr of lead.
Schoolboys made slate pencils by cut
ting a broken slate into narrow strips
and whiting them round with pock-
ct knife. A small bone of chicken
was burned in the fire until almost
calcined, and so used as a slate pen
Gil, but was rather too soft. To break
a good school slate by accident was
quite misfortune in those days. The
school books were those used by the
former generation of children, and
sometimes there would be hardly two
alike in a class"

BRINGS TALE; LEAVES FOOT
Thrilling Account of Encounter
With Grizzly Bear.

Blubbering with joy, Aswatuk. an
vania farm, whittier he has gone, by the
stern patronym of Morris Levy, was
released from Ellis island in charge
of Miss Martha Lininger, nurse at
the Grenfell mission, in Labrador, says
the New York Herald. Aswatuk (until
he reaches Pennsylvania has only
one foot. The other, the Left was
chawed off by a grizzly bear, wherein
lies the story.
Aswatuk-which means "the chilly
baby'-is sixteen years old, but, ac-
cording to the story, he's so brave
that Labrador is probably relieved to
be rid of his daring spirit
Miss Leininger, who brought him
back with her, had trouble getting him
into the country, but finally appeals to
Washington were answered, and Aswa-
TUX is off to the farm
But to the tale of that missing foot.
On cold, windswept night in Bolster's
Rock, Labrador, little Aswatuk and his

lamp, wondering if Papa Aswatuk, the
daring fisherman, was riding the gale.
Suddenly from outside the igloo there
came a scratching and the hearts OF
Aswatuk and his mother CONCEALED.
They knew it was the dread scratching
of a polar bear scratching his way in
to make meal off them.
Sundries in the way of dried moose
meat and mission tracts were used to
bolster the fast weakening wall of the
igloo, but all in vain.
Through a ragged aperture gloomed
the horrid face of a grizzly bear He
yawned in anticipation of little Aswa-
tuk-a plump SOUTHEAST as Aswatuk
kicked with his left foot. The foot
reached the open mouth just as it
closed, and just as Aswatuk's mother
dropped the whale oil lamp on the
BEARS head. With a groan of pain and
anger the grizzly loped lightly away,
blazing with wrath and whale oil, but
still clinging to Aswatuk's foot.
Aswatuk was taken to the hospital
at st. Anthony's, where he recovered
sufficiently to be brought to this coun-
try. So goes the tale of Aswatuk as
told by himself.

Accidents to War Aviators.

An interesting statement is that
made by French publication that the
number of deaths of aviators in the
war service by accident was very
small as compared with the records
in time of peace, and the explanation
is made that in this service only the
most skilled men are engaged, and
moreover they do not indulge in the
sensational exhibition stunts that
have brought disaster to many. 1t
may be noted that it is this same sem
sational exhibition business that has
given the general public many erro-
neous and misleading ideas about fly
ing machines that will sooner or later
prove an injury to Scientific
American.

SAYS His Wife Could Tell.

Most men are queer, but some are
Queerer, especially in New York. A
prize winner in the second class drew
the eyes of the entire company upon
him in amazement as they sat around
a table in a downtown restaurant at
luncheon. They had been discussing
apartment house life, when one of the
party turned to the man next to him
and asked 'By the way, Jim, how
many rooms have you in your flat?"
New York flats are so small you would
imagine that any man who had to
pay rent for one could answer right
off. But Jim said: BLESSED if know.
my wife can tell you-I can't. Never
counted 'em." Well" whispered a
man opposite, isn't he a bird. Won

Mining Tin One Womar,s Wort

Mining tin to produce her operas

Emma X. Steiner, who, broken down

went to Alaska to recuperate. Here
she was struck with the gold fever,
but while her find" turned out to be
tin and not gold, it promises to bring
her in its weight in gold, especially
