has been named by botanists the
"Hydnocarpus Kurzi." and 1t grows
in company with many other kinds
OF trees in dense forests.
The demand for the seeds and their
oil has increased amazingly since 1t
has been proved that leprosy. or cases
of leprosy, have been cured by ad-
ministrations of the oil, and there
is no doubt that the demand will in
crease until leprosy. is extirpated.
For many centuries the oil has held
a place in Burman folklore and ira
dition as a remedy for leprosy. 1t is
said that Buddhist histories OF
thousand years ago contain an ac-
count of king of Burma who cured
hidself of leprosy with oil from the
seeds of tree called "kalaw." The
identity of this tree was lost for
centuries. In 1899 the source of this
oil was discovered or rediscovered.
and three years later Investigations
were begun to ascertain II the oil
had any healing properties. Expert
ments were carried on with lepers
in Hawaii and in India and China.
and it has been reported on the high
est possible authority that cures have
been made. :.
The good which this strange oil
may do for the human race cannot

Hottest Place on Earth.

THE Dead sea, at tire southern end
of the Jordan valley. in Pales-
tine, is said to be the hottest place
on earth. 1t is forty-seven miles
long, ten miles wide, and lies in a
depression 1900 feet below the level
of the sea. Hence, it has no outlet
to the sea and the waters that flow
into it are disposed of by the rapid
evaporation caused by the heat. Five
million tons are thus daily taken up
by the atmosphere.
There is not a deeper trench on
earth than this. AS perpetual snow
rests on the tops of high mountains,
because they are out of the blanket
of air to some extent. SO the Dead
sea is always hot because it is under
so thick blanket and also situated
well southwark. The water of this
UNIQUE lake Is five times as salty as
the ocean. and one cannot sink In It.
The water is bitter to the taste, oily

Secrets of the Sea.

EVERYBODY has read of the dis
l. coveries made by dredging the
sea bottom along the shore of the ant
arctic continent. but few have any
idea how the work is done when the
surface of the ocean is covered with
ice five feet or more in thickness.
The method is interestingly set forth
in the reports made by the British
antarctic expeditions.
Holes are made in the ice con-
siderable distance apart. and cable,
to which a dredge is attached. de-
scends through one hole and energies
through the other. The dredge is
so arranged that the open side i
drawn ahead by pulling the cable.
Ahead of the dredge is attached a
weight which serves to keep the
dredge on the bottom and in the right
position The cable is pulled by a
man advancing from the forward hole
as fast as it is paid out by another
stationed at the rear hole. Thus liv-
ing creatures. as strange as the world
they inhabit. are brought up from be-
meath the eternal ice-sheet.
