Relics of the Bruce

A find of an interesting character
has been made on the field where the
famous battle of BannOckburn was
fought in 1914, and where, it is
claimed, Scotland won its independence
as a nation. Three sharp-pointed
wooden stakes in an excellent state Of
preservation have been discovered
three feet below the surface on a piece
of land formerly known as the Milton
Bog.
This bog is referred to in the chron.
icles of the battle, history recording
that King Robert the Bruce of Scot
land had pits made in the bog and
pointed stakes placed in them to stay
the progress of the English cavalry,
and it is a NATTER of history or ira
dition that this device proved to be
very successful. These stakes, which
were found standing upright in the
soil. are regarded as genuine, and are
now being treasured as historical rec
ords In the ancient town of Stirling.

First LeUiafhan Was Failure

The first attempt to provide trans
atlantic travellers with a vessel that,
in size and magnificence, would be
floating hotel, was made in the build
ing of the Great Eastern. The launch
ing of this huge ship, for some time
called the Leviathan, was commenced
November 2, 1857, but owing to the
difficulty of moving the enormous
weight, the vessel was not finally
afloat until early in 1858.
The secret of managing so large a
liner had not yet been learned, and
the Great Eastern was from the first
a white elephant to her owners. Her
only real service was in the laying Of
Atlantic cables. She made her last
voyage 50 years ago, and was then
disposed of as junk. The pioneer
Leviathan had length Of 692 feet
and a tonnage of 210O0.-Detroit

Intelligence of Indian
Elephant Illustrated

The real test of animal intelligence
according to Mr.. Samuel A. Derieux IN
the American Magazine, is the ability
to meet an unforeseen difficulty, to
grapple with a situation for which
neither training nor instinct has pre-
pared. Here is good example,:
A traveller of the name of Tenant
was once riding horseback along
road in India, on both sides of which
grew a dense Jungle Suddenly his
horse SHE'D violently. and Mr. Tenant
saw coming toward him a huge ele-
plant unattended and balancing on his
tusks a heavy timber that he was evil
IDENTIFY carrying from sawmill to the
shipyards. The timber filled the road
from side to side, and Mr.. Tenant
could not possibly pass.
Suddenly the elephant seeing horse
and rider, stopped and turned side
wise Then he backed a short dis
lance into the jungle and, leaving
room for horse and rider to pass,
morted out his directions that they
should go on. But a horse is terribly
afraid of an elephant, and Mr. Ten
ants horse continued to rear and
plunge; the man himself, interested to
see what would happen next, did not
froce him to pass.
Deeper and deeper into the jungle
the elephant backed; still the horse
reared and plunged. At last the ele-
plant laid the piece of timber down
and, pushing hard against the under
growth, disappeared. Then Mr.. Ten
ant rode past.
A short distance down the road he
refined in and looked back. The ele-
plant came out of the jungle, picked
up the timber with his tusks, balanced
1t with his trunk and, turning 1t round
In the road, went on his way with
loud snorts of indignation and dis
gust

EayptIan STAMPS il Arablo only.

A new issue of stamps is in circula-
ton in Egypt, but these stamps only
show their value in Arabic characters
This is a great inconvenience to many
people. Three-quarters of the foreign
ers in Egypt do not know how to read
Arabic and thousands Of tourists who
cannot decipher Arabic characters
yearly visit Egypt. Perhaps 1t will be
urged that Egypt, like other countries,
should have It's stamps printed only IN
the national language, but the cosmo-
politan character Of the Egyptian pop
ulafion seems TO give good reason for
departing, in this particular, from the
practice of other nations.-Christian
