The Pilorimaue Steps.

After journey of eight days on the
back Of camel from Port Said, the
tourist finds himself at the end of his
sight seeing jaunt through Sinai, fac
ing the Stone Gate, halfway to the
summit.
Only two routes lead up the precipi
tous mountain side from st. Catharine's
monastery, and one is unfinished and
seldom attempted by any but the sure
footed Bedouins
The other is via that Pilgrimage
Steps, said to have been constructed
by the Empress Helena. The steps are
5000 in number and lead from a side
portal in the wall of the convent A
small chapel and mosque are stu
ated on the plateau at the summit of
Mount Sinai. The view obtained is
wild and imposing. Under certain con-
ditions the Red sea and the bay of
Akaba are visible. II

Old Mother Hubbard.

Probably very few people could say
who wrote the famous Mother Hub
bard" lines, and fewer still know
where the writer is buried. The au-
thor was Sarah Catherine Martin, and
she was buried at Loughton, in Essex.
Miss Martin was born in January,
176S, and was about thirty-seven years
of age when she wrote the story of
the old lady and her dog. Tradition
says the original "Old Mother Hub
BARD was the housekeeper at KitTey
Hall, Yealmpton, the residence of Miss
Martins married sister. At any rate.
it was when on visit to her sister at
Kitley that the famous rhine was pen
ned. The original publication is still
at Kitley, and a cupboard is pointed
out as being 1.-The" cupboard.-Peare

Mud Roads Of Manchuria.

Northern ManchuIia possesses no
roads, as they are known in this coun-
tryAthat IS, made" roads However.
there are fairly well defined routes
through the country from village To
village by which the trade carts travel.
From April to November these so call
ed roads are practically impossible,
sometimes even for men on horseback.
owing to the peculiar qualities of the
Manchurian mud, and in this part of
the year nearly all traffic moves by
water. For this reason most of the
inhabitants and nearly all the impof-
tant towns and villages in northern
Manchuria are found beside the large
rivers and their more important trib-
utaries. The autumn and winter, how
ever, when the ground is frozen, are
the seasons for moving the great bean
and grain harvests. Then the land
routes are congested with countless
thousands of Chinese two wheeled
carts, drawn by three to nine ponies,
three abreast, taking the products of
the farms to Hardin and returning to
the villages with kerosene, piece goods
and articles of metal manufacture

Crowded Gibraltar.

In no place on the surface Of the
globe is rent so high as at Gibraltar,
the reason being that the geographical
position Of the town precludes the pos
sibility of its being extended in any
direction. a long. narrow strip of
what was once sea beach is alone avail
able for building purposes. All the
rest is PERCEPTIONS rock
Upon this narrow parapet. in some
cases less than 100 yards in width, are
crowded the homes of $4,000 people.
As much rs !; sovereign a week is ask.
ed and oil:ined for the use of one
small unfinished ROOM and this, too
in a place where the normal rate of
wages is quite 20 per cent less than in
England Naturally the overcrowding
is fearful. and. the water supply being
scarce and intermittent, cleanliness of
living, as we understand it, is almost
impossible
No wonder that in the old days the
plague and the cholera ravaged the
Rock with virulence unknown
even in the filthy and pestilential cities
of the far east.-London Opinion.

How Ivy Climbs a Wall.

At first ivy is little plant with
brittle stem and leaves of three or Eve
lobes. AS it grows the stem becomes
less brittle, and if it finds nothing
to which to cling it creeps along the
ground. sending down tufts of fibrous
roots. These roots. however, appear
only when they can be actually used
to the advantage of the plant. If the
ivy climbs a wall it's stem throws out
number of tufted fbers, or claspers,
by the aid of which the plant can cling
to the wall These claspers are really
modified roots and do not penetrate
the wall but merely cling in sucker
fashion to the irregularities of the sur
face. They are produced from all the
parts of the stem nearest to the wall.
but if the ivy is creeping along the
ground the claspers, being useless, are
not produced at all. The tufts of
fbrous roots which the plant throws
out when it is growing on the ground
are produced only from those parts of
the stem that are opposite to the
1eaves.-Kansas City Star.

Liuhtninu Conductors.

It is popular fallacy that light
ming conductor on a steeple or chimney
acts by carrying the lightning to the
earth. 1t would, of course. be COM
pletely fused by such happening
The fact is that the conductor, so
called, ought to be called Il lightning
reducer, or a lightning neutralizer. or
something like that, for it's purpose is.
by forming an easy channel for the
electricity of the earth to join the
electricity of the clouds above, to re
duce their tendency to do this in a VIC
lent hurry.
Have you ever watched drop of
water accumulate until it is too heavy
to hold up longer? Splash it goes!
That's what happens in the clouds.
There is big drop of lightning accu-
mulating up above, and when it is too
big to hold it comes down splash!
The conductor acts as though
thirsty breeze were to blow on the
drop and prevent it getting heavier
and eventually dropping. -Pearson's.

How long. we inquire, will the common people of Europe stand for this war. They seem to like it, judging by the way they subscribe for the government loans, no mat ter how many of their kin are killed off, maimed or blinded for life. Here is the Italian governments last loan, oyer-subscribed and some people disappointed because they couldn't get any of the bonds. As long as the common people of a country want war by being willing to finance it Henry Ford's chances for declaring peace are not very good.
