of rubber trees in, the tropics and
those Of maple trees in this country.
Out Of about 1000 varieties of trees,
all Of which produce more or less rub

found whose product is considered

Cobeiin Tapestries.

The most famous products in the
history of weaving are the so-ca!lcd
Gobelin tapestries, fashioned in the
factory on the site where many years.
ago Jean and Philibeft Gobelin. mer-
chant dyers Of scarlet, hid their works.
The name Of Gobel:n has always been
identified with the product Ut these
ancient looms, which, for over $50
years have turned ont tapestries solely
for the state. j times Of peace these
never leave France except as gifts to
visiting kings and chief magistrates.
Formerly 800 artisans and appren'
tees were employed in the Gobelin
works, weaving textiles after designs
by LIE Brun, Boucher and many ce1e.
brated artists. Today the workmen
number 60 and. as an expert weaver
can produce only five square feet a
year, 1t is understandable why the
tapestries bring such exceedingly high
prfces. 1t Is estimated that the
minimum value of a square foot Of
Gobelin tapestry is $3.50.

stopped.
Progress had become impossible. Be-

a perfect barricade supplanted from
behind by piles Of muck and rocky
refuse which left no opening to the

HalIey'o Comet.

Halley's comet, which visits this
part Of the universe about every sew:
enty-six years, was seen at Its bes,
here on April 10. 1910. Prof. Max
Wolff of Heidelberg first detected the
comet on this visit on September II,
1909. In the late sD.ing Of 1910 It
became visible to the naked eye. Be-
tween 2 80 in the. morning and dawn
1t was a beautiful spectacle in the
eastern sky. The tail grew in length
and impressiveness as perihellon was
approached, April 10. "Halley" passed
within half million miles Of Venus on
May 2, and an observed irrcsularity Of
tnil structure was perhaps occa&io0f1
thereby.

FISH SENSITIVE sem III TO CHANGE
Sudden Variation Of Temperature viii
Drive Them to Distant Waters
or Destroy Thorn. '.~r V

Fish are very quick to feel a change
Of temperature In their native ele-
ment, and sudden cooling, or heating
Of the water Is very injurious to
them. %.
A hot summer has often been known
to drive behring's to find cooler waters
at a distance. Some years ago, q
fearful storm ragged along the eastern
coast Of North America. After it had
subsidized, the sea was strewn with
millions Of lite, 4 fish like cod,
but attaining a weight of 50 pounds
Of more. A vessel was sent to dis
cover the cause Of the strange phe-
no,nenon. It plowed straight ahead
for $50 miles, and estimated that an
area Of 5000 square miles was COW
cred with dead fishes. It was dis
covered that the storm had brought
!cebergs in its train, and the con-
sequent great cold had proved too
much for the fish, accustomed as they
we're to warmer waters. The cod has
an objection to sudden changes Of
climate, and If put in colder water
than that to which 1t Is accustomed,
wilt be numbed. Experiments have
been tried to acclimatize English sal
mon in Tasmania, but the difference
In temperatures has caused those ex-
periments to fail.
Congers and pilchards have died
from cold of the Cornish coast, and

been seen In the shallow waters OF
Cornwall since a violent easterly galo
blew in 1870.
