Tho Eskimo Skin Canoe.

The kayak, or skin canoe, of tho Es-
k1mo was in use on the coast OF north
ern Russia two or three centuries ago,
according to DR.. MacRitchie, Il. s. A.
(ScoD. Evidence Of this Is obtained
from statements made by Burrough In
1856 and from the chronicles of Dan
tsh expedition to Vaigatz in 1853. It
was further shown that three Aayaks
were captured Off the northern shores
Of Scotland about the end of the sew
enteenth century. One of these is still
preserved In tho museum Of MariscIial

Why Oil vii! Still tho Troubled Waters
mmediateIy

Frequently we hear the expression
that some one poured oil upon the
troubled waters" which is linked up
with the discovery that oil poured over
board from ship in distress will tend
to increase its safety by stopping the
waves from breaking against the ships
side. This is due to the fact that the
oil Is composed Of molecules which are
more closely compressed than the mole
cules in water. The oil forms kind of
blanket through which the waves can
pot break, thus protecting the sides of
a ship 'that has poured overheard
enough oil TO cover the sea for few
yards in all directions. Tue waves be.
meath the oil are just as violent as
ever. but they cannot break through.
