Where Iceberas ORIGINATE.

The source of practically all the Ice
hergs of the arctic and sub-arctic re-
gions is Greenland. Owing TO the
.northward set of the West Greenland
currents the bergs of this side are car
ried first to the north and it is only at
about the seventy-fourth or seventy
fifth parallel of latitude that they be-
gin to make their way westward to
come down on the Atlantic side.

Ancient Perfume.

1t seems strange to us today to read
of saffron as a perfume; one of the
romances about it lies in the story by
Hakluyt of a pilgrim smuggling, at
the risk Of his life, from the Levant,
a head Of saffron In a hollow made in
his staff.

Gasoline.

Gasoline.
Gasoline gives off A very explosive
vapor, even at ordinary temperature.
This vapor is heavier than air and
may be present near the floor of a
room in which the odor Of gasoline
is scarcely noticeable to a person
