At its head is Capt. Angus Buchanan
a geological explorer Of great skill
and experience. The expedition has
been sent to find and collect birds,
animals and plants wherever it is able
to penetrate, to look for any traces
Of Roman or other classical civiliza-
ton In the central Sahara, and to
secure Camera and motion-picture
records Of the habits, customs and
general mode Of life of the inhabitants
Of the country.
The expedition, with its camel cara
van, is now heading for the desert
north Of Nigeria. Communications are
necessarily very irregular, for there
are only five main roads across the
desert, some Of which have never yet
been travelled by Europeans. Once
Captain Buchanan leaves the French

Strange things happen in the

lecturer, tells about the hornbills,
long-tailed birds so big they often
measure five feet from tail tip to
beak. In Malay jungles Wells saw
the male hornbill during the mating
season drive the female into hollow
tree, then wall up the opening with
mud. This protects Mamma Hornbill
against enemies. She stays in her
Jail until eggs are laid and Matched.
Then pa let's her out. Meantime he

Copper and Health.

The use of copper sulphate for the
disinfection of reservoirs and the de-
.struction Of algae and noxious germs
in water has led to much discussion of
the old idea that copper is dangerous
to health. An official Of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture maintains that a
change has come over scientific opin-
ion on this subject. Strange as it
may seem, he says, there is not an au-
thentic case Of copper poisoning on
record, either in this country or
abroad, and he adds that toxicologlsts
and psychologists who have sufficiently
studied the subject agree that copper,
in the amount used for publication Of
water, is harmless. On account of the
many defects in the practical use of
filtration plants, he regards purifca-
ton Of water supplies by copper as a
preferable method, or, at least, as a
safe Observation-Disclosures Star.

spite Of his Irish name is a South
African Boer. King Buno was
savage Of the old school. He pre-
ferredsthe gin which he could drink to
gold which he could only look at He
drank the gin all at once, as soon as
he got it. On one occasion, when he
had come into possession of a Mauser
rifle and cartridges, he had his whole
army paraded in front of him, and be-
gan sort of shooting competition into
the motionless ranks. THE savage
king slipped a clip into his Mauser,
the metallic click intensified by the
silence. He raised the rifle, sighting
down. first one line Of warriors and
then the other. The next instant Il
shot rang out and a plumed Swat
pitched forward and lay writhing in
the sunlight -Four more shots rang

Old Wing the
Capitalist

Old Wing had .een Young Wins
when first he appe red, timid, diff
fident China boy, at thS Rogers ranch
No doubt he had beal struggled ii
across the frontier. But the Rogers
were not interested in how he had ar
rived; they wanted a cook, and Wins
claimed that he could fill the job.
That was in the days of the Rog
ers supremacy in Calavera county
There were James Rogers and his
wife, Ellen; young Mr. Charles, the
son, and Ella, the daughter. Wing
proved to be a failure as cook, but
while his fate trembled in the bal.
ance, there occurred the flooding of
the dam.

talns, and the dry gulch was trans
formed into roaring stream. Young
Mr.. charles, who was then twelve,
slipped on the edge of the race, and in
an instant was struggling in the whirl-
ing torrent.
If anybody had seen Old Wing
Young Wing, then,-they might have
seen him hesitate fraction of a Sec
ond before he jumped.
Five minutes later he staggered up
to the ranch house, dripping water,
and carrying the half-conscious bow
in his arms.
After that Wings position was Sc
cure. Mr.. Rogers gave him hundred
dollars, and heard that he had in
vested it in citrus company. Citrus
was booming in those days. During
the years that followed rumors occa-
s1onally reached the Rogers ears that
Wing-he was then in the transition
stage between Old Wing and Young
Wing-had become a capitalist in a
small way. They questioned him
sometimes, but only received a bland.
celestial smile. o..~
Wing was never good cook, but
of course he could not be disposed Of.
He was faithful, if a little cratic. It
was he who broke off Miss Elias i'm
pending match with young Larrabee
by bundling the latter neck and crop
out OF the house. Larrabee stopped
fighting after Wing had whispered in
his ear. Subsequently it was found
that Wing had saved Miss Ella from
a great scandal.
She married Hamar Johnson, and
they lived on in the same house after
the older generation had passed away.
Mr.. Charles, who was a bachelor,
tried to get him to work for him, but
Old Wing had curious dislike for
him-never spoke to him, and always
scowled when he was near. Mr..
Charles was killed by fall from his
horse later.
That was in the days of depression.
The Rogers-now JOhnson-properties
had shrunk and dwindled. The dam
dried up. Things grew desperate.
We'll have to let Wing co." said
Johnson.
'But we can't" his wife protested.
''He saved my brothers life"
"That was long ago."
"Why doesn't he go back to China p
They mooted the point to Wing. He
must have saved up enough money to
be real capitalist in his own coun-
try. Why didn't he go?

Hard Water softened by Peat,

Hard Water Softened by Peat.
Hard water can be softened by mere
ly pouring it through a bed Of raw
peat, the softening being caused by
the formation Of insoluble calcium
and magnesium salts by reaction with
acids that are normal constituents of
the peat, and all the hardness is taken
out Of the water in passing through It.
It is thought that if this process could
be proftably adopted the result would
be quite an achievement, as an eco
nomical outlet for peat would thus be
:ound.-Popular Mechanics Magazine
