Concerning DreatnA.


Scientists assure us that the longest
dream we-ever have-evena the dream
that seems to carry US on through sew
eral days-actually occupies no more
than single second.
Some authorities maintain that IL
any one Of our dreams were to last
longer than single second we should
die. Other authorities are convinced
that we do not dream at all when we
are asleep, but only In the fraction Of
time when we are (as Shakespeare has
expressed it "'twiXt sleep and wax

nothing but distorted ideas and images
passing through the drowsy mind and
being no more than extraordinary
variations Of things that have happen.

or read in our waking moments; they
can have no possible association with
our future. But, on the other hand,
dreams have been credited with pro-
phetic meanings since the days when
the world was young, and dream books
are stxl published and purchased and
consulted by the million.

Frozen Food In Siberia.

The markets Of IrkutslS, in Siberia,
are an interesting sight, for the prod
ucts offered for sale are in most cases
frozen solid. Fish are piled up in
stacks like so much cordwood, and
meat likewise. All kinds of fowl are
similarly frozen and piled up. Some
animals brought into the market
whole are propped up ON their legs
and have the appearance of being
actually alive, and as one goes through
the markets one seems to be surround
ed by living pigs, sheep, oxen and
fowls standing up. But, stranger yet,
even the liquids are frozen solid and
sold In blocks. Milk is frozen into a
block in this way and with string
or stick frozen into and projecting
from it. This, 1t Is said, is for the
convenience Of the purchaser, who is
thus enabled to carry his milk by the
string or stick handle.

Athletic MosouitoAa

Singapore is on the Malay peninsula,
that slsoe tongue that hangs down
from the southeast corner OF India. A
lsingapore mosquito will lie slothfully
'around all Gay, not turning a hand,
but the moment it sees you retire for
the night and pull down the bed net
ting 1t leaps to its feet, trembling with
,eagerness. They will pass up thou
sands OF Chinese and Malays a few
blocks away, sleeping without cover
OF any kind, to come and work and
plan the whole night through to get
just one taste of white meat. Their
persistence Is wonderful. An ant in
comparison to Singapore mosquito is
a happy -go-lucky creature, with no
thought of the morrow. Here in the
luxurious tropics mosquitoes grow to
splendid proportions, perfectly formed
and splendidly muscled, and in any
catch-as-catch-ca conflict can defend
themselves against all comers, irre-
spective of nationality. In a clinch
they have a way of balancing on their
tails and leaping on to their opponent
and tearing him with their hind feet,
after the manner of tho cornered Aus
tralian kangaroo. - Homer Croy in

Pus. In Boots.

No collection of fairy tales is COM
plete without "Puss In Boots" and it
is interesting to know that 1t has
amused the children of hundred gem
erations. The various versions Of the
story differ materially, however. 1t is
believed that the Zanzibar version Is
the original There the man is m.
grateful to the clever cat and is pun
ished by awaking to find his prosperity
a dream. In France, Italy and India
the cat Is a swindler and the Marquis
of Carrabas is his accomplice. In Rus
sia and Sicily "Puss In Boots'' is a
moral story and the cat helps the man
from motives of gratitude. When
Crutkshaek Illustrated "Puss In Boots
he rewrote it and introduced the moral
motive Of gratitude in the cat, but the
American version does not point out
any motive. Why should the cat help
his master to title and riches? In our
story he is weak fellow who does
nothing to help himself, and we feel
that the cat is throwing his energies
away on an idler.-St. Louis Globe

Cromwell and ouinina.

We owe to Sir Clements Markham
the introduction of quinine yielding
trees to British India and the conse-
quent cheapening of the drug from a
guinea to halfpenny an ounce in Cal
cutta, but the medicinal properties of
cinchona bark had long been known.
They were discovered by the Jesuits,
after whom it was called Jesuits' bark.
Concerning that, Sir Clements used to
relate an odd coincidence. Oliver
Cromwell died of tertian ague, and
quinine might have saved him. In the
very newspaper in which his death was
announced, the Mcrcurius Politicus,
there was an advertisement of Jesults'
bark for sale. But the name Of Jesuit
was abhorrent to the Puritans, and
hence Cromwell's medical advisers
would have nothing to do with it.

Grab Locomotives.

The queerest locomotives are the

CRABS" Gliding into the black gal
1eries of coal mines and halting at a
crevice in the wall from which issues
the distant ring of pick and shovel, the
crab lets out flexible tentacle "a steel
cable) for perhaps 200 or 800 feet
drawing it back presently with car
of coal in tow. Feeling into the holes,
first on one side. then ON the other, it
moves along and never fails to secure
its prey. Finally, with dozen or
more cars in its wake, it proceeds to
the shaft or outlet and delivers its
booty to the crusher.
These crabs operate by trolley con-
ductors. They run through the main
passages Of the mine. Each crab is
furnished with an electrically operated
drum, on which are carried 200 or 300
feet Of steel cable. This is hauled into
the side passages or drifts by man.

Insect Sits on Its Eaqs.

Family matters in the case of insects
usually mean only the depositing of
eggs In suitable situations for the in
dependent development Of the Off
spring, the parent insects often dying
before the young appear. The earwig,
however, provides remarkable excep-
tion to the general rule, for it sits upon
its fifty or more eggs until they are
hatched, just as bird would do, and,
moreover, If the eggs get scattered it
carefully collects them together again.
In the early months of the year, when
digging the soil, female earwigs may
frequently be found together with their
batch of eggs. At the slightest sign
Of danger the young ones huddle close
