HILLS NODDED BY GLACIERS
Peculiar Formation of "DrumIIns" Makes Them Appear as Though
 lnteIIigentIy Designed.

Between Syracuse and Rochester, N. T., lies a country of hills, known as drumIins, which is one of the most beautiful bits of scenery in the eastern United States. The term drumlin is an Irish one, and Is applied to low, rolling hills of glacial origin which ex- ist in that country, and also in parts of New York and New England. This section between Syracuse and Roches- ter is the very heart of the American drumlins.
 Most American mountains and hills were formed by violent disturbances of the earth's surface, and their rude origin is reflected in their ruggedness. But the drumlins were built by the great ice sheet which once covered all of North America. The materials of which they are made were pushed to- gether slowly by the crawling glaciers, nodded and tamped and smoothed by the great ice fingers as child makes mud pies.
 The drumlins look as though they had been designed by some great intel Hgence with a sense of beauty, for they rise in smooth, gentle curves. They are remarkably uniform in height, usually a little less than POO feet, and so smooth and lenient are their slopes that many of them are gull tivated to their summits. Some of them are as round as half an apple, and others are long welts or rolls.
 Scattered among the hills are a number Of small lakes and ponds, clear and pretty, and there is good fishing in many of them. The drumlins are a favorite playground of the people in Syracuse, Rochester and other nearby towns. but they are little known be- yond the counties in which they He.

GREAT WORK OF TEACHERS
Theodore RooseveIt's Tribute to Their Services to the Country Surely
 We'll Deserved.

Moreover, as an incident to your teachers avowed work, you render some well-nigh unbelievable services to the country. For instance, you. render to this republic the prime the vital service of amalgamating into one homogeneous body the children of those who are born here and of those who come here from so many different lands abroad. You furnish a common training and common ideals for the children of all the mixed peoples who are here being fused into one nation ality. It Is in no small degree due to you and to your efforts that we, of this great American republic, form one peO- pie instead of a group of jarring peo- pies. The children, wherever they have been born, wherever their parents have been born, who are educated in our schools side by side with one an- other, will inevitably grow up having that sense of mutual sympathy and mutual respect and understanding, which Is absolutely indispensable for working out the problems that we as citizens have before us.-Theodore Roosevelt, in an address before the National Educational association at Ocean Grove, July z, 1905.

sAeAclTY SHOWN BY BEARS
Observers Have Seen and Noted In. stances of Reasoning That Are
 Little Short of Human.

The grizzly bear, says Mir. Enos A, Mills, is superior in mental power to the horse, the dog and even the gray wolf, and in his book, "The Grizzly, 9 he offers convincing evidence of his statement. A grizzly cub in Yellow stone park, he says, once found a ham skin-a prized delicacy. Just as the little fellow was lifting 1t to his mouth a big bear appeared. The cub instant ly dropped the ham skin, sat down on 1t and pretended to be greatly inter- ested in watching something in the edge of the woods.
 Another young grizzly in the Yellow stone one doy found tin can that was open at one end and partly filled with fish. He raised 1t in his forepaws and peeped in, then deliberately turned the can upside down and shook li NOth- ing came out. He shook again, but still nothing came out. He then placed the can on the/ground, open end down, and hammered the bottom of it with a stone until the fish dropped out
 In zoo one day piece of hard-tack that a grizzly bear wanted fell into the hands of black bear. The black bear dipped the hard-tack in water and started to take bite. Evidently it was too hard. He put it in the water again, and while it soaked gave his attention to something else. When the black bear was not booking, the grizzly, standing on the farther edge of the pool, stirred the water with a forepaw and started the hard-tack toward him on the waves. The instant the first wave touched the black bear he looked round, grabbed the precious hard-tack, which was rapidly floating away, and, pushing it to the bottom of the pool, put one hind foot upon 1t. How very like the mental processes of human beingsi

PEARL MOSQUE WELL NAMED Structure at Agra, India, Admittedly One of the Most Beautiful
 in the World.

Among the most beautiful of Shah Jahan's sculptured monuments is the Pearl mosque at Agra. The entrance gateway of red sandstone contrasts effectively with the interior of white and blue-veined marble. An inscrip- ton in letters of black marble states that this mosque may be llkened to Q precious pearl, for no other mosque Is similarly lined with marble.
 The Indian influence upon Mahome- tan architecture of this period Is evil denced in the lotus petal cap decorat- ing the domes and in the purely Hindu finials, legitimate Mahometan mosques bearing instead the simple spire, with the star and crescent. The foliated arches come from a Buddhist source, symbolizing the lotus-leaf shaped aura around the body of Gautama. The pointed upper foliation Is derived from the shape of the leaf of the bodhi, or pipul tree, under which Gautama at tained to enlightenment and Budda- hood. and Is commonly used in Bud dhist idolatry to indicate the nimbus around the head.
 The master builders of Mogul days were chiefly Indians from Bengal, and since they were artists and artisans rather than mechanical workers much of the inspiration of the architecture of this period must be accredited to them.

rhe wlus of constantInopIe.

There was a special assistant to the French ambassador in Constantinople years ago whose friends in Paris wished to play trick on .him, and so they told him to take a cargo of wigs with him to ConstantinopIe, and he would make a lot of money. The man bought the cargo of wigs, only to find on arrival that the people had never heard of wigs and had no use for them whatever. The ambassador noticing that his friend was melancholy, discov- cred the cause to be the unsold cargo of wigs, so he told the story to the grand vizier, who told the sultan. Whereupon the sultan sent an order to all the synagogues in the city that all the Jews in the city must wear wigs. The Jews didn't even know what a wig was, much less where they could get one. And this was just the moment for the possessor of cargo of wigs, who put them on the market and made a pocketful of money.

HeIooIand Beliefs.

Helgoland was called Hertha in an- cient times. The island was inde- pendent from the tenth to the four teenth centuries, until the dukes of Schleswig took it over and used 1t mainly as a pawn for loans until the Danes acquired 1t 400 years later. Den. mark ceded it to Great Britain in the nineteenth century and the British fortified it for defensive purposes.
 The islanders absorbed customs and ideas of the many nationalities tha. visited them, adorning each with a dis tinctive touch. They even had a curi- ous quirk in their Satan, a wooden leg. Hence the Schleswig saying: "In Hel- goland the devil goes on crutches.~

The Earth's Crust.

The most important scientific inves- tigation of the last year in any coun- try has probably been the attempt to measure the earth's crust. We know very little about the shell on which we live. Scientists have been studying the problem in Hawaii, Tuscany and in Salvador, where the opportunities for investigation are especially favorable. Much data new to science has been collected concerning the shell, its con- position and probable age. Still other tests have been made in New South Wales, where a great reservoir coneen- trates an immense weight of water on a limited area, and Instruments have been devised to measure the movement of the earth's crust under this weight. New light has thus been thrown on the action of volcanoes.-Boys' Life.
