FISH THAT KNOWS NO FEAR
Killer Whale Easily Holds Title Of
Most Ferocious Of the AMI
mails OF the Deep.

The killer whale is one of the most
deadly animals that swim In the sea.
Killers are found In almost every ocean
OF the world. but, because of the nature
OF their food. they use as feeding
grounds the sounds and bays along the
coast rather than the open sea. They
are ferocious pursuers. constantly de-
stroying more than they eat
"Killers apparently Will e.a anything
that swims." says Roy G. Al.arws, OF
the American museum. VIII, s. been
studying whales for some t.ae. Fish,
birds, seals, walrus and otli whales
are all its prey. Its capacity is almost
unbelievable. There is record of thir.
teen porpoise and fourteen seals being
taken from the stomach OF a 21-foot
specimen" The capacity of the killer
has given rise to n number OF fantastic
tales, one OF which tells Of killer be
Ing seen with seal under each fiipper
a third under its d0rsal I'm and a
fourth In its mouth. In pursuing, the
killer bellows In terrifying manner.
Killers are the only whales that feed
upon their own kind. They sometimes
go In company by dozens and set upon
a young whale, batting him like so
many bulldogs. Some will lay hold OF
his tail, while others bite AT his head
and thrash him until the animal dies
SO great Is the strength Of the killer
that single one, by fastening its teeth
into the body Of dead whale being
towed by several whaling boats, can
carry II to the bottom In nm instant
They know no fear and In parties they
will attack the largest whale.
Not even a ship, or a number Of
ships can daunt the ferocious killer,
who frequently, through its boldness,
help whaling parties by terrifying their
mutual prey into nonresistance.-From

FAMOUS OLD ENGLISH FORT
Porehester Castle, Obsolete Now, Must

Strength In Its Day

Far away. behind all that the ma

(Eng) harbor-the outer basin with
the ships Of all kinds and descriptions
coming and going In 1t, from the great
battle cruisers TO the steamers plying
TO and fro from the Isle OF Wlght-far
from all the hustle OF the harbor side,
at the extreme end OF great stretch
OF tidal water. backed by the long.
low line OF the downs, stands Por-
chester castle. Roman as It's name
denotes, Porchester IS said TO have
been one OF the nine fortresses built
by the Romans 10 defend the British
coasts against maraudlng pirates
from across the North sea. However
this may happen TO be, the walls
which face the huge expanse OF mud
flats at low tide and water AZ high
tide are really the work Of Roman
builders, which IS a great deal more
than can be said for many of the So
called Roman walsf i'm other places.
Wonderful walls they are, too-Roman
builders never did things by halves
fully ten feet thick and built of flint
aud concrete with courses OF lime
stone slabs.
The strength OF the place before
artillery came into USE or against an
enemy unprovded with II, must have
been enormous and It's situation must
have made 1t almost impregnable. The
Normans recognized its value and Hen

on the Sth of March In l765 the

OF the Revolution.
The English treasury had been
drained by the Seven Years war and
the country needed money. The people
OF England were already taxed 20 the
limit and King George and the English
parliament decided that the most ex.

tax the American eoionists and TO es-
tablish the principle that the colonists
must pay taxes 90 the crown even

Thrill Of Doing rhlnas.

Life is made UP Of trials and sat
isfacuous. The one IS TO keep up your
muscle, and the other is TO keep mp
your morale. The one sets tasks that
try the hbers Of your nature the
other bestows the mental laurel that

whole process begets thrills that en-

Chinese Musical Instrument.

The characteristic musical instru-
ment Of the Chinese Is a series of
bamboo tubes. the longest Of which
measures about nine inches, and of
which the remainder diminish In
length at a regular ratio. each being
just two-thirds the length Of the one
before. This arrangement was devised
by the Chinese-they say, by tn" Eth
peror Huang-Ti-On the foll0w;n"
principle: Between heaven and earth
there is perfect harmony. Now, the
number three is the emblem of heaven
and two Of earth. IF then two pipes
or tubes he made in the proportion Of
three to two, they will harmonic in
tone as perfectly as earth and heaven.
So the base tube Of the instrument
was made nine inches long and the
second two-thirds that length. or six
inches. OF course. the third has to be
two-thirds the length Of the second,
or four inches; and so on. The result
was that the note Of the second tube
was what we call an interval Of a fifth
above that Of the first, that Of the
third fifth above the second, and
so on through the whole range.
