The sundial is an instrument Of great
antiquity, for 1t IL referred to In the
Bible isaiah xxxviii, 81, and It has
been estimated that the date OF this
sund.al would be about 700 years be
fore the beginning OF the Christian era.
! The first sundlal OF which history dis
tinctly tells US Is that OF tho Chaldean
astronomer Berossus, who probably
lived about 800 b. Q.
Then and for many years afterward
the art OF constructing sundials 10 suit
any place and situation was an impor-
tant branch OF mathematical study.
The sundial as invented by this Re
rossus remained In use for many centu-
ries. four OF these having been found In
Italy In modern times. One which was
discovered at Tivoli in TAG Is believed
by some to have belonged 70 Cicero.

SOLDIERS, sUPERsTITIONs.

Soldiers have superstition that
wearing the clothing or equipment OF
a fallen comrade will cause the death
Of the wearer. This superstition does
not extend to the belongings of foe.
II Is considered unlucky to meet
cross-eyed woman on the way to ac-
tive service Some soldiers firmly be
lieve that in such case they are al
most certain never to return. Meet
ing cross-eyed man, however, is
believed to have the opposite effect
and to bring good luck.
IL Is considered unlucky for
soldier who is lying awake before the
bugle has sounded reveille to hear a
dog bark. He is certain TO meet with
some mishap before the day is over.
according to those who believe in
signs" On the other hand, II the
sound heard should be the Growing
OF a rooster, the soldiers is might
~ pleased. All will be well with him
that day.
There are many superstitions con-
nected with the canteen. IL Is con-
/ gidered unlucky TO refuse to drink
with a stranger. or to have drink
, cheaper than that OF the person who
plays host II Is also unlucky to leave
any OF the drink in the glass or 20
finish of one drink without wishing
for the next one 1t Is unlucky TO
sing, whistle or hum the tune Of a
hymn in the cantaen, and il Is very
unlucky TO whistle or hum anywhere

March in saul
One Of the superstitions Of the
English Tommy born in the present
great war, Is that OF lighting three
cigarettes with one match To do so,
the soldiers say, means the speedy
death OF one, IL not all three OF the
group.
There are many explanations Of
this superstition. Probably the most
plausible Is that OF It's being symbolic
OF the three candles placed at the
coffin OF the dead. Because II has
been the custom TO place two at the
head Of the coffin and one at the foot,
II has long been considered in Eng
land bad omen to have three lights

IRON INDUSTRY ABNORMAL.

Abnormal conditions prevailed IN
the iron industry during the first half
OF 1917, mainly on account OF the war
In Europe. At the beginning OF the
year. when pig iron was being made
at the average OF about 100000 gross
tons daily, the blast furnaces were
operated at slightly reduced capacity,
according to f. f. Burchard. of the
United States Geological Survey, De-
partment OF the Interior. This rate
dropped TO less than $4,000 tons
daily In February, but in March the
rate rose to 10000 tons daily. and
in April and May IL stood at more than
10000 tons, compared with the max
imum rate OF 10000 tons in October.
1916 The prospective blast-furnace
capacity seems not to have kept pace
with the demand, however, as is in
dictated by the enormous increases in
price, especially since the United
States entered the war. The total
output OF coke and anthracite pig
iron In the first five months Of 1917
was about 15,sOO,0OO gross tons.
compared with about 16,175,OOO gross
tons during the corresponding period
OF 1916. a decrease OF about 2 per
cent.
The quantity OF iron ore from mines
in the Lake Superior region shipped
from upper lake ports from January
| to June /, 1917. was about $500, 900
gross tons, compared with slightly
more than 100000 tons for the cor
responding five months OF 1916, de-
crease Of about $500, 900 tons. or more
than 35 per cent. This apparently
largo decrease in ore shipments from
the principal producing region was
not due to inability to mine or but
largely to the belated opening Of the
lake traffic because of ice blockades
and to many ore carrying boats hav-
ing been put out Of commission thru
accidents.
Plans are being made by commit
tees OF the Council OF National De-
Tense to increase shipments OF ore,
coal and coke during the remainder
of the season through cooperative
methods, and possibly the June ship
ments will nearly equal those OF
June, 1915 In the meantime the
blast furnaces have been drawing on
large stocks OF ore at lower lake
ports in order TO Offset the deficiency
in upper lake shipments Deferred
shipments of coke and other causes
OF traffic congestion have also re-
tarded operations at some furnaces

Ssilors' Sluns.

Strange signs frequently hang from
ships which puzzle even jewellers In
seaport towns. A basket slung from
the mainmast head Is sailors sign TO
notify that the cargo has been loaded
or discharged. as the case may be, and
that the ship Is ready to start on her
next trip.
A generally mysterious emblem Is a
broom lashed to a mainmast or bridge
railing. This Is to signify that the YES
sci Is for sale.
Occasionally a dark blue stripe may
be seen running fore and aft on a YES
sci As a matter OF fact, this is sign
OF recent bereavement Blue Is the

this color takes the place OF the black
