Watching the Seals.

Visitors at the Aquarium never tire of watching the harbor seals. and one thing that pleases them particularly is to see the seals fall off their table when they go to sleep. In the middle of the pool for the seals there are two low tables, their tops are just above the water, on which the seals climb out to sleep or to rest. And some times one or another of the seals will climb out of the water to one of those tables and lie there on it, maybe close along the edge of one side and per haps with it's head and forward part of it's body hanging over the edge of the table in front, apparently all the time in imminent danger of rolling off the table at the side or of pitching off head first into the water in front. And when a seal lies on table like that, sleeping or dozing, people stand around the pool watching and waiting for the seal to fall off He won't hurt himself when he does fall, he will sim ply fall off into the water; but old and young men. women and children, will stand there with keen interest silent ly watching and waiting for that seal to fall. And if they stay long enough, as they are pretty sure to do, they are rewarded.-New York Times.

WHEAT |S SEIZED
 FOR THE ALLIES
REVISED ESTIMATE PLACES THE AMOUNT AT 2o,ooo,00o
 BUSHELS.
PRICE WILL BE ADJUSTED
It Is Estimated There Is Still m Canada in the Hands of Farmers and Dealers 15o.oOO.000 Bush
 els Surplus Wheat.

Ottawa-The Canadian government has commandeered all high-grade wheat in elevators from Fort William, on Lake Superior, to the Atlantic coast.
 The action was taken by the Ca nadian Grain Commission under the special war act The wheat sefzed northern It was the property of grain shippers and millers. That taken is all which was in pubic elevators at Fort Williams, Port Arthur, Midland. Tiffin. Port McNicholl, Collingwood, Goderich. Kingston. Port Colborne. Prescott, Quebec, St. John, Montreal and Halifax
 A revised estimate places the amount at 20,000,0O0 bushels con siderable amount Is the property Of American grain dealers.
 The grain was taken so that grain as possible. It is stated officially that the price will be fairly adjusted and the grain owners promptly paid by the Canadian government. It is esti- mated that there still is in Canada in the hands of the farmers and dealers west of Fort William 150,000,000 bush els surplus of wheat available for eX- port. It is expected that most of this will be taken in the future for the use of Great Britain. France and Italy The domestic supply of Russia is more than sufficient to meet the needs Of that country
 Had the Dardanelles been forced the surplus of Russian wheat would have made the present action unnec- essary. While the wheat just taken was commandeered to fill an order from the British goevrnment for a large quantity of wheat, it is under stood most of it will be shipped to Italy.
 The Canadian government will look after the transportation of the grain to the Atlantic seaboari and from there it's shipment across the Atlan- tic will be undertaken by the British government in the same way that shipments of oats and hay have been handled for the past year.

Has Odd Hobby.

An old man who perhaps hasn't re- ceived a letter in years had an odd hobby. Every time he sees in the newspaper the list of advertised mail sent out from time to time by the general post office in New York. he turns at once to the initial letter un- der which his name comes and runs carefully through the list. He never yet has found any letter that might be supposed to be for him. and fur thermore hasn't found any that might be for any of his relatives. He takes an odd pleasure in doing it, however, something with the eagerness which impels man to grub through a pack ct of old letters in hopes that he may come upon some rare variety of stamp. Really, if ever he found his name in the list it probably would kill his en- joyment of the hunt forever there after

LIGHT FOR OPERATING ROOM
Eminent British Surgeon Believes Green to Be Better Color Than
 White, at Present Used.

The immaculate white" of an oper- ating room and everything in it has long been a byword, but 1t is more than likely that this will soon change to "verdant green" or some other shade of natures favorite color. Brit. ish physicians, who have lately had an amplitude of practice in operating rooms. are finding that white is too wearisome to the eye and causes ia tigue. It also detracts from the value of light on and within the wound. Light is now being focused on the wound. not around 1t. with much bet ter results.
 One eminent surgeon of Leeds has fitted up an operating room entirely of green and 1t Is likely his example will soon be followed by many others. Green is a restful color. offers no sharp contract to the colors of the wound surfaces. and allows ligatures and sutures to be clearly seen against 1t. After painting the walls, ceiling

Treasure for Antiouarians.

In recent issue of the London Times announcement is made of the discovery at Caervoran, on the Roman wall, three miles east of Gilsland, in Northumberland, of aa remarkable bronze measure of the Roman period. Such off ficially certified measures are very rare. On the present specimen the name of Emperor Domitian, in whose consulate in A. D. 29 the meas ure was tested, has been oblterated, owing to the hatred felt toward him after his death. The measure con tains TIE sectarii, about thirty pounds of wine, or rather more than two gal Ions, and eight pounds have been al- lowed as the weight of the material
 Professor Haverfield is uncertain whether it was really certified under the order of the emperor, or whether it is a private venture. masquerading as official. In any case, there is no question of the date, and the discovery is of considerable antiquarian interest.
