Extinct Ground sIoth.

The remains of an extinct ground
sloth found In Patagonia and brought
to this country by Mr. Roosevelt is
now in the American Museum of Natu-
raj History in New York. These re-
mains possess extraordinary interest,
because the surroundings in which
they were found seem to prove that
the animal was living only few CEN
turtles ago, and was not only contem-
porary with primitive man, but was
to some extent domesticated by him.
Previous to this discovery it had been
believed that all the great ground
sloths of South America, of which
many fossil remains have been found,
became extinct thousands of years
ago. The remains recently found were
discovered in dry cave, in company
with tools or weapons or stone and
bone, together with bundles of grass
spread as though intended for fodder.
There were other indications that the
animals had been stabbed or impris-
oned in the Gaze and fed by their cap
tors.

Potomac Was Threatening to Cut
Away the Whole Blufi-Good En-
cheering Work.

The high bluff on which stands
Mouns Vernon, the home of our first
president, has for years been in dan
ger of gradually sliding into the Po-
tomac.
This danger became acute a few
years ago when it was discovered that
a new landslide was beginning that
threatened to destroy the broad lawn
in front of the mansion, If not the
foundations of the mansion itself, and
engineering work, recently completed,
was begun at that time to save the
historic site from further damage.
The ground slopes from the mansion
to the edge Of the bluff, and from this
point drops steeply for hundred
feet or more to the edge of the Poto-
mac. The river at this point is wide
tidal estuary and the action of the
waves has caused steady erosion
at the foot of the bluff.
Underlying the bluff are strata Of
sand, clay and soft sandstone, which,
on investigation, were found to be
bined with the erosion of the waves,
has resulted in landslides that have
doubtless been going on intermittent
ly for ages.
To cure the trouble small drainage
tunnel was first driven in the bottom
of the sandstone stratum and carried
back from the river front distance
of about 200 feet.
From this tunnel heavy flow Of
water Immediately started, and this
flow continued for several months.
At the end of that time the flow d.
minished to a moderate amount, and
has remained practically constant ever
since.
To prevent further erosion ut tbs

Desert LIGHTHOUSE.

Prairie schooners, as the long can
vas-covered wagons which cross the
deserts of Arizona are called, are guild
ed by the only desert lighthouse in the
world. The lighthouse marks the po-
sition of well, the only place where
water can be found for 33 miles to the
eastward, and 80 miles in any other
direction.
Many wayfarer in this vast, water
less region has died of thirst prac-
tically within sight of the well, the
whereabouts Of which he was ignorant.
1t was tragedy of this sort which
led to the erection of the beacon. A
boy, perishing of thirst, had fallen in
the last stages of exhaustion. When
night came, he noticed the light from
the well keepers cabin burning dimly
in the distance. With a last heroic
effort, the boy reached the cabin. This
gave the well keeper an idea, and now
every night light flashes out from
the only desert lighthouse in the
world.-American Boy.

as we have any proof of.
That it can remain that long has
been well known to us by the evidence
curiously given to us by the seals
themselves. They have a habit of
turning themselves head down in the
sea, with their hind flippers lifted up
entirely out of the water, completely
reversing their normal attitude when
rising to breathe and survey This
habit is to enable them better to
scratch their sides and loins with the
fore f1ippers than they can when not
thus inverted, because the hair and fur

quently made-never longer.
With reference to the powers of de-
struction, of course our fur seal boat
has no torpedo tubes, but it can and
does shoot it's mouth off at fish with
deadly certainty.
In this connection 1t is interesting
to note that seals do not catch fish by
pursuit Of them-not at ali; they shoot
down, from above, upon the backs, or
up from below, to strike at the bel
lies of their finny prey.
How fast these rhocine submarines
can speed up under the stimulus of ex-
element or fear no one knows But

that bevy of fur seals will often fol-

information Not Just What Botanist
Was Looking For, But the Boy
Meant Well.

The famous botanist was pacing
slowly along the country road, his
eyes, as usual, roaming from side to
side for new plants to study.
Suddenly an eager look spread
across his features, and he leaned
over the low fence inclosing a cot
tage garden. He had found a plant he
did not know.
What could it be! If only he had a
specimen of it to study!
At that moment shock-headed lad
strolled along the road and stopped
to gaze open-mouthed at him.
Il say!" called the botanist urgent
ly. See that plant there-that pale
pink one in the corner? Do you know
it,"
"Uh-hu!" said the country boy
briefly.
What's its name? Do you know
what family it belongs to?"
The lad jerked grubby thumb over
his shoulder toward the little cottage
as he spoke more briefly still.

How long it remains thus submerged

When our submarines were first
brought out, trip of more than 300
miles from base was the utmost limit

we know they can cruise safely more
than 5000 miles from that base. There

There is to be observed close re-

orally, this resemblance is complete;
they are both driven ahead by feather
ing screws, and they are both kept on
the level of their submerged course at
a given distance below the surface by
rudders.
Then we observe that the periscope,
to which the submarine craft owes all
it's efficiency, is duplicated exactly by
the seals nose and eyes, and which
are all that 1t ever lifts above the sur
face when startled, and in flight or
passage.
