bothered me a great deal when I lift

Far North Alto Hat
Itt “Emerald UltT
Were not the title ^re-empted,
Kodiak, In the Katmal district of
Alaska, might have been called the
"Emeruld Isle" quite as well as Ire
land, for Its situation in the Pacific
Is similar to that of Ireland In the
Atluntlc ocean. Is the assertion made
by a writer In the Washington Star.
Although the Island of Kodiak Is
100 miles from Mount Katmal, which
In June, 1912, gave one of the most
tremendous volcanic explosions ever
recorded, It was hurled nearly a foot
deep In ash. The ashy blanket trans
formed the “Oreen Kodiak" of other
days Into a gray desert of sand, but
after a period of two years the ash
laden hillsides were again covered
with verdure finer than ever before.
In the words of a resident of
Kodiak, “Never was such grass known
before, so high or so early. No one
ever believed the country could grow
so many berries, aor so large, before
the ash.”
The island owes Its climate, os does
Ireland, to the tropical ocean current
which bathes its shores. The easterft
half of the island is occupied by a
forest of spruce, whose trees reach
a great size. Then comes luxuriant
grass land, equal to any grazing land
in the United Stntes, and finding a
parallel only in the “guinea grass” of
the tropics.
Armenians Have Long
Survived Other Races
The Armenians have remained un
shaken In all vicissitudes and by theii
courage have preserved until our days
their nationality, their language and
their customs, asserts Herbert Welsh
in the New Armenia.
The races that the Armenians knew
In their infancy have finished from
the face of the earth. Their brothers,
the Phrygians, are today only a vague
memory. Among the contemporaries
of the Armenians, only the Hellenes,
the Italiotes and the Gauls have sur
vived, not, hewever, without undergo
ing many Changes, and abandoning
rouny of their former customs. Ex
cept the Greeks, one must seek the
kinsmen of the Armenians among the
nations who were brought from the
steppes of the North toward the
shores of the Mediterranean by the
same flood that brought the uncestors
of Haik toward Thrace.
It ran clearly be seen that the titles
of nobility of the Armenian race date
back to more tlmn 3,000 years before
our era, and that they are much more
ancient than tliose of most of the Eu
ropean peoples. About the time when
Rome was being founded, Haik, the
eponymous hero of Armenia, led the
Armenians to Ararat, The Persians
were just commencing their political
life when Armenia had ulready con
st!! uted herself a slate.
Astronomical Thecnies
The navul observatory says the be
lief Is commonly held among astrono
mers that Mars Is an older planet than
the earth. The old theory of the
origin of the solar system, called the
nebular hypothesis, was flrst proposed
by Laplace a hundred or more years
ogo. According to his view, the sun
was once so large that It extended as
far as the orbit of Neptune. In the
process of shrinking to Its present size
It left bits of Itself behind, each of
which became a planet; so that the
farther out a planet Is, the older It Is.
However, there are many astronomers
who do not uccept this theory; several
different theories are now given to
explain the origin of the solar system.
Preserving Trees
Large wounds In trees made by the
removal of branches of considerable
diameter may be protected by painting
the rut surface with a heavy coating of
white lead. A large number of waxes,
paints and washes have been tried, aud
the conclusion, has been drawn that
any substance which Is not corrosive
or detrimental to growth and which
will protect the heartwood from the at
tacks of rot spores, will prove a satis
factory covering for a cut surface.
Among such substances may be men
tioned white lead, yellow ocher, coal
tar and grafting wax.
Awaken* New Hope
Some enterprising California eltlaen
discovered that goldfish are much more
valuable In a pond of stagnant water
than in a glass bowl. It is said that a
few goldfish placed in sluggish water
where mosquitoes breed wifi in one
season eat every vestige of mosquito
larvae, freeing the neighborhood of
this pest. Just about the time we had
given up all lw>pe that thts metallic
colored fish had any value other fhaq
as a parlor pet, along comes this news
dispatch. There Is hope for the gar
pike yet.—Detroit News.
Oriental Rug Designs
Authorities on oriental rugs say
that the rug Itself typifies the uni
verse and the various designs the
ever-changing course of life. The
principal color, If red, typifies life of
victory; If blue, royalty; if white,
purity; If green, devotion, and If
Clack, evil. In patterns the Swastika
mrans good luck; the flower and knot,
fortune and life everlasting, th* cir
cle, Immortality. The star of six
points represents Allah.
