When Can Jackie Sleep?
Says Admiral Sir John Arbuthnot
Fisher, first sea lord of the British
navy: “In our future sea fights, with
destroyers haunting us by night and
submarines dogging us by day, the two
chief requisites will be endurance and
nerve. A machine has no nerves and
never gets tired. In the Nelsonic days
they could go to sleep at nights. When
the destroyers arrived we settled to
go to sleep by day. Now the sub
marine has come, you can sleep neith
er by day nor night!”

Advice for Moneymakers.
To some moneymaking seems so
| simple that they have given very
simple advice on the subject. Bar
r.ura said: “To get rich Is easy. Save
more than you spend.” Benjamin
Franklin said: "The Way to wealth is
as plain as the road to market. Don't
waste what you earn.” Russell 3age
says; “So long as some men have
more sense and more self-control than
others, just so long will such men be
wealthy and others poor.”
Petroleum-Bearing Strata.
The petroleum-bearing strata show
remarkable resemblance in formation
and composition the world over. Ev
erywhere they ere bituminous clav
shales and variegated clays interstratl

such series, contain tarry materials,
but rarely true petroleum, the only
notable exception being the Trenton
limestone of Ohio and Indiana.

in the district to more than a sixth of

The Grand Mulets is a mass of gran

Wayside Inn for Geese.
Years before the war Daniel Soo -
the owr.er of “Scotlands” plantation,
in Albemarle county, Virginia, beg.v
the custom of feeding flocks of wil l
geese each spring and summer on their
semi-annual migrations. The custom
has continued to this day, being kept
up by the descendants of Mr. Scott.
He had a special garment which he
donned when feeding the hungry birds
and in this they invariably recognized
him.
The children, grandchildren and
great-grandchildren of the first geese
must have been well iustructed in re
gard to this ‘‘wayside inn,” for they
aiways tarry there to get provisions.
United States Senator Thomas s.
Martin is the present owner of Scot
lands.
The Poor Rat.
There are still a few English coun
try districts left where the worthy
men acting on behalf of their fellows
as churchwardens find themselves in
some little difficulty when their duty
requires the issue of notices.
But it was with something of a
shock that a tourist some little time
ago surveyed a parish notice which
notified the signing cf a rate. In
itself the fact was not extraordinary;
but the way in which the action of
the magistrates had been disguised in
'language was noteworthy.
‘ Notice is hereby given,” it read,
“that the magerstrates in petty ses
sions on Wensdy last singed a rat for
ihe releese of the pore.”
Saved by a Turkey.
As a gift two turkeys and a pair of
bantam fowls were sent to a gentle
man in New York, who placed all four
in his poultry yard. One day a hawk
on mischief bent flew down at the ban
tam hen, which at once uttered crie*
of alarm. A few' feet away strutted
the turkey cock. When he heard the
danger signal he turned and went for
the hawk in gallant style, striking at it
with hjg spurs. At last, with a well
directed blow, he sent the trespasser
reeling. Meanwhile the bantam had
found shelter, and the hawk soon aft
erward departed, thoroughly punished.
But for the turkey’s friendly help,
however, his tiny chum would have
been converted into hawk's meat.
Spectacles of Long Ago.
An interesting collection of specta
cles is that possessed by Mrs. Wesley
Williams of Bowdoinham, Me. More
than 100 years old, these curios were
the one-time property of the women of
Bath, who were forced by destitute cir
cumstances to seek refuge in the alms
house. Many are of odd pattern, with
side lights and extension bows. An
other valuable souvenir owned by
Mrs. Wesley Williams is the sword
of her great uncle. Col. Samuel
Coomb3, a famous officer of the revo
lutioaary war.
Strange “Talking Fish.”
There is a kind of fish, the “gr«>n
din,” well known to naturalists, and
<4fien called the “talking fish.” It has
a sort of feet, and makes excellent eat
ing. When it is taken from the wa:er
it makes a noise more or less loud,
which has given it its name (from the
French “gronder,” to growl or snarl>.
This sound, however, is produced by
the passage of the gas from the swim
ming bladder, which the fish can com
press at will.
Mail Clerks’ Good Work.
A mail pouch was brought to the
Meriden, Conn., postoffice that had
been run over and badly mutilated by
the wheels of a railroad train. Some
of the mail matter was almost de
stroyed, but by much work and perse
verance the bits were put together
and practically all of the letters de
livered to the persons to whom they
were addressed.
Angles In Water Pipes.
It is calculated that one right angle
bend in a pipe through which water
flows will make necessary 9 per cent
more pressure for a given flow than
it required for a straight pipe of like
size and structure. With three sharp
bends at right angles, the pressure
needed is 13 per cent more than that
which is used in a straight pipe.
Wade to Catch Fish.
At Covington, Ga., the water is so
low that it is only necessary for one
to wade out into the stream with a
basket to get all the fish he is look
ing for. Sheriff Sam Hay, with sev
eral friends, rode to the river one
night and in thirty minutes raked in
seventy-eight pounds of catfish.
Bees Used Boiler for Hive.
The mechanics, while at work on
in unused engine and boiler at the
cranberry bog of F. H. Burgess at
Sandwich, Mass., lately, found that
\ swarm of bees had taken possession
of the boiler and packed nearly every
tube solid full of honeycomb.
Formed Strange Friendship.
There is an odd combination of pets
in the Biddeford. Me., greenhouse of
Charles S. Strout in a woodcock and
i cat. They live in perfect peace, the
woodcock growing fat on the worms
in the rich earth and the cat keeping
the nlace free from mice.
