What the Dial Was For

Il see that you don't know how to
tune this set" the friend observed, as
he began adjusting the knobs But
don't let that worry you. old man; we
all have to learn, you know. Now"
he continued, did you notice the in
creased volume Of sound as l turned
the last dial? Just put the finishing
touches on reception, as it were. OF
course, one cannot teach you the
whole game of reception at one SIT
ting; but I will say this much-you
would do well to pay particular atten-
ton to that dial If you want good
quality and plenty Of volume. That Ii

Hapaiian Geysers

Two enormous geysers are spoutins
100000 cubic feet Of molten lava
every hour from the Kilauea volcano.
During the past summer the crater OF
this volcano, which Is 1900 feet wide
and contains an immense lake OF liquid
fire, has been draining, due ia subter-
ranean disturbances, the surface OF
the fake having dropped 600 feet be-
low the rim in August. In September
the crater began to rise again at
rapid rate until it had reached within
200 feet Of the rim. The appearance
of two immense geysers spouting
molten lava high into the air and
dropping it back into the lake is an
unsual phenomenon in the occasional
rise ana fall Of the liquid fire OF the
Kilauea crater-Department OF In
terror Bulletin.

The "One.Hoss" Shay

any grandfather and grandmother
once hired an antiquated four-wheeler,
driven by a man even older than the
cab, whose horse was a greater age
than all of them combined, to pay a
Sunday afternoon call In London
square nearby. On It's funeral way
from house to house, the bottom fell
out Of the cab, and as the aged man
on the box was too deaf to hear the
by no means unviolent expostulation
of the hot-tempered old gentleman and
the cries of his small and timid spouse.
there was nothing for them to do but
TO run along inside. The laughter of
those who gazed with an abandonment
of joy at this most unusual sight must
have done much to break the gloom Of
that early Victorian Sabbath. From
"Unwritten History" by Cosmo Ham
ilton.

Pit ponies are not the only creatures
that live in coal mines, seldom seeing
the light of day. Miners are often
troubled with rats, mice, flies, and even
frogs and toads.
The presence of mice spells danger.
They have been known to gnaw cables,
causing electric wires to fuse and va
por to be exploded in gassy pits. Their
food consists of scraps from tina
miners meals, and they have strange
liking for oil. which they lick from the
fabricated parts of machinery in the
mine. Whatever their diet, however.
the mice never grow very big, because
the entire absence Of light has a
dwarfing effect.
Files seem to thrive underground.
and are a great nuisance to the
miners. especially at mealtimes. Other
minute forms Of insect life which in.
habit the mines explain why frogs and
tcads are frequently found there, look
ing fit and well-fed.

Demons and Storms

Evil spirits and demons were held
BY the ancients TO be responsible for
great winds and storms at sea. Hor-
ace, In his writings lamented the
rashness of those who tempted the
fates by trying to pass the boundaries
that the gods had interposed between
the continents. The discovery of the
Cape of Good Hope was long delayed
BY the fear of the storm fiends which
infested the African coast; though
only AT Peel, in the Isle Of Man, have
/ ever heard that the seafaring people
were astute enough to capture the
author of all the mischief, which is at
least comforting. = Montreal Family
