1t is believed that to an enormous
extent the bed Of the ocean is covered
with lava and pumice stone. Still
more remarkable Is It TO find the floor
Of the ocean covered IN many parts
with the dust Of meteorites. These
bodies whirl about in the heavens like
miniature comets and are for the most
part broken into innumerable frag-
ments. We are all familiar with these
heavenly visitants as shooting stars,
but 1t has been only lately discovered
that this cosmic dust forms layers at
the bottom Of the deepest seas. Be-
tween Honolulu and Tahiti. at depth
of 1850 fathoms-oyer two miles and
a half-a vast layer Of this material

pable dust is indistinguishable; but,

depths. it forms a wondrous story Of
the continuous bombardment Of thls

In handling other peoples money the
principal must be kept intact. II, as a
trustee, those to whom you are respon-
sible insist upon an income which you
in your heart know cannot be obtained
without taking some slight chance, give
up the trust without hesitation, says
Worlds Work. There is no more bit
ter experience through which an hon
est trustee or executor can pass than
the rendering Of an accounting for a
lost or depleted trust. No reason or ex-
euse can weigh for an instant against
the actual result which he faces. A
single slip in the handling Of funds
like this may doom all future genera
tons Of that family to lives OF poverty.
This is the greatest responsibility ever
laid upon "A trustee, an executor, a
banker or an adviser. aud no honest
man should assume II unless he Is pre-
pared TO endure for the sake Of the

The effect of wind upon trees is pow
erful. Even the presence or absence
Of forests may be determined by the
character Of the prevailing wind or
the conditions that modify it. The
wind acts as a drying agent giving
special aspect to many plants. When
It is almost always from the same
quarter the plants show greater devel-
opment upon one side. Trees are small
er on the windward edges Of forests,
and trunks and branches are bent to
leeward. The determinations are most
marked near the sea or ia Cat regions.
The cherry. plum. walnut. black pop
