Where the Fault Law.

As the Irish police recruit strolled
along on his first turn of night duty,
loud yells of Fire" rent the air. He
bolted quickly TO the spot, and found
a house well alight, with man half
hanging out Of an upstairs window.
"Help Help" he yelled. "lf |
jump, will you catch meT"
"Sure, an OF will !" replied the pO-
liceman readily.
So the man jumped, only to crash TO
the ground and lie there stunned.
When, a few minutes later, he recOv-
cred consciousness. he looked up nj
the constable reproachfully, and mnr-

AMBER FORMED BENEATH SEA
Natural Resin Of Pines Turned Int
Precious Material by the Action
of the Elements.

The worlds supply Of amber, thoe
rare and therefore precious substance
the gold of the north" as 1t has been
called, comes from the coast Of Sam
land in the eastern Prussian PENN.
sula, between the towns Of Burstrort
and Palmnicken, and here the shafts
of famous mine run out under the
Baltic and the miners are actually
working under water. Ages ago the
country was land Of pine forests
which the ocean overwhelmed; the
pine trees vanished beneath the sur
face of the sea, and then, century by
century. the wood became fosslized
and the natural resin of the pines was
turned into amber. Millions Of years
were needed to transform the resin
into amber, and the search for amber
has developed romantic and picturesque
episodes like those that have become
part and parcel of the story of gold
and diamonds. An amber mine, how
ever, Is not necessarily under water.
and there is an open-air mine at Palm
nicken where amber is dug for in much
the same way as diamonds are sought
IN the mines of Kimberley. In nor
NAL times this one mine provides oc-
cupation for about 5000 amber
seekers.

Egyptian Women Prospecting.

The fellaheen of Egypt, for cen
turtles the most ignorant and improvi-
dent of serfs, has ridden into prosper
fly on the tidal wave of reconstruction,
and with him his long-suffering wife.
Still, as in the days of Christ, one may
see him on his donkey, while his wife.
with her heavy burden on her head,
trudges behind. Yet there is real, If
invisible change in their relations.
Through the sudden rise in the price
of cotton from $50 to 500 a knntar
since the beginning of the war, the
housewife has been enabled to make
long-neglected purchases and has been
enabled TO display her native shrewd-
ness In bargaining and financial mat
tiers. II Is she who markets all the
products of the farm.

Teach Proper Housing.

Cincinnati is said to be doing more
to solve the problem Of the careless
tenant than any other city In the
United States. This is being carried
on through better housing league.
The Ohio city put into effect the first
systematic plan for teaching housing
In the public schools, il is declared.
Three visiting housekeepers are at
work In various districts of the. city.
Each has a district small enough so
that she can get to all the houses In
her territory frequently. She gets In
touch with the owner. explains the
work. seeks his cooperation, and asks
In return for her services that he
make reasonable repairs that she may
recommend.
II is not claimed by the league that
the visiting housekeepers will revo-
lutionize conditions in day or year.
What is being accomplished, II is
stated. is so satisfactory that the
league hopes to gradually extend the
work'so that II may reach every tenant
in the city.

HEARD OWN BURIAL SERVICE
Dying Millionaire Had What Might Be
Called "Rehearea" in His
Bedroom.

When Nh. Parker Mason, ii sinewd
and level-headed millionaire of the
United States. was on the point Of
dying Il few years ago he conceived the
quaint idea of having a rehearsal Of
his own funeral service in his bed
room. He called in q Presbyterian
minister, and few members of the
church choir. and the full service was
rehearsed in his presence and that OF
his family and a number of his friends.
The clergyman preached an eloquent
and touching sermon on the virtues
