man, In his way, but, like nearly all
the priest Of ancient times, he vas
not above practicing tricks to gain
and hold the confidence of his follow
ers. You have all heard of his dove,
which would sit on his shoulder and
seem to be talking in his ear. Maho-
met claimed that the Holy Ghost
took the form of the bird to give him
inspiration, but the truth is that the
prophet had taught the dove to eat
wheat out Of his ear-Chieago News

RoenhoIm,s Magnetic Rocks.

Boenholm, an island of the Baltic
sea, 80 miles east of Zealand, is

when in their vicinity, have to rely
on stationery objects for steering
guides. One submerged rock is so
charged with magnetism that the
compass on vessel passing over 1t
dips perpendicu1arly downward.
