We all know that hundreds of clocks ar«* set from the 1 o’eloek gun tired by electricity from Greenwich observatory, hut not everybody is uware that rifles have supplied mois ture In desert countries to travelers dying of thirst and thus saved their lives. in the great Sahara some time ago, says Pearson's Weekly, a globe trotter, who wanted water badly, found it pos sible to eolleet a drink out of the mere dampness of tin* sand. Me sunk the barrel of Ids gun into the ground and it collected enough moisture in the bore to stay his thirst. A timely suck at a gun muzzle has saved many lives in the sun scorched deserts of the tropics. Water ran short on a merchant ves gel in mid Atlantic not long ago, and the crew did not know what to do to obtain a drink. The captain, however, lilt upon a brilliant idea. lie bad a number of sporting guns in Ids cabiu, and. taking them on deck, he plugged up the breech ends, tilled the bores with sea water and set them them end up among tic* coals of the galley tire. As the steam gathered he run it through other gun barrels until it cool ed. The steam collected in the shape of excellent fresh water, and in this way llit* crew were supplied with suf licient moisture until the vessel touch ed port.

Some 100,000 bayonets— condemned stores of the French army and used in the Franco Prussian war have found their way into the homes of poor peas ants, who use them as tire irons. Tin* hark Ruth, bound from Demera ra to Oban with sugar, neglected to procure a chart of the Scottish coast when setting sail. The captain hud never bceu to Oban before, mid, not wishing to return to Dcmeraru to get a chart, lie looked about the vessel for a substitute. lie discovered a ralndoiiiaii railway time table, with the railway map at tached.

A(»tl«*» of (lie IlnoLN When llie Mul I it «4 Sen non M«* it Ins. “II is always amusing to watch the rooks in the period of their courtship,” says an Kuglish writer. "When the male bird tlrst begins to seek a mate the fact is soon made known to the world at large by a curious hoarsening of bis voice. There is no accounting for tastes, according to an old proverb, and to the female rook there is no mu *ic etpial to tIn* hoarseness that her lord begins to show about the middle i>f January Then begin the violent tmiruuments of which she Is a passive spectator. The two claimants for her favor often begin pecking at one an other at tin? very tops of tin* trees, and as in the fury of their onslaught they lose fool hold they drop and drop and drop till they bump against tin* ground, often at tin* very feet of some human onlooker who has been watching tin'll' proceedings with Interested curiosity. Darwin tells us of similar incidents in the life history of deer and cites as somewhat of an argument against the doctrine of the survival of the fittest that while two lordly and robust stags are lighting for tin* hind it will often happen that a timid and feeble third stag will come in and carry off the prize. "Put iio such eapriciousness as that is allowed tin* female rook. Probably before tin* battle begins he who aspires to lie her future lord and master lias selected tin* home in which they are to live, and should any other rook at tempt to share it w ith her In* will tight 111 in to the death. In this ease tin1 sur vival of tin* lit test is insured. "When once they lire mated the rooks seem to stick together and he subject to little further molestation, though oc casloually. 1 think, a gay Lothario will attempt to make love where In* ought not to Put In that case the whole col ouy of rooks unite against him and peck and heat him with their wings till he is at the point of death.*’ WHY INDIANS PAINT. An Which Accounts !•*»»«• the (•r«»tcai|uc ( iistoiu. Once nu old A pacin' Indian, when asked the question why the people I painted their faces, told this little leg end: I *‘i/ong ago, when men were weak and | animals were Idg autl strong, a chief i of the red men who lived in these | mountains went out to get a deer, for | Ids people were hungry. "After walking all day he saw a deer and shot at it, but the arrow was turned aside and wounded a mountain | lion, which was also after the deer. When the lion felt the sting of tlu* nr ! row he jumped up and hounded after the man. who ran for Ids life. • lit* was almost exhausted, and when he felt his strength giving way he fell to the ground, (‘tilling on the hlg bear, who, you know, is the grandfather of men, to save him. •The hlg hear heard the call and saw that to save the man he had to act quickly, so be scratched Ids foot and sprinkled his hlood over tlu* man. “Now. you know that no animal will eat of tlu* hear or taste of his hlood. So when the lion approached tlu* man he smelled of tlu* hlood and turned away, hut as In* did so his foot scraped the face of tin* man, leaving the marks of Ids claws on the hlood smeared face. “When the man found that he was uninjured he was so thankful that he left the hlood to dry on Ids fact* and never washed it at all, hut left it until 1 It peeled off. “Where the claws of tlu* lion scraped it off there were marks that turned brown in the sun, and where tlu* hlood * stayed on It was lighter. Now all men paint their faces that way with blood and scrape It off In streaks when they hunt or go to war." ruaraembooK The seed and plant catalogue of the century.

DRIER 714 Chestnut St., Philadelphia, Pa. DeWIti’s Salve For Piles, Burn*, Sores. INDIA RUBBER. Proee*m of T lipping; tfie Trr-«*s aud I'reparinv the *>ap. India rubber, or cauutcbouc, is a dry. coagulated, milky Juice, the sap of trees and shrubs Indigenous to tin most unhealthy and inaccessible re gions in the equatorial countries of South America, in certain areas of west Africa and the Cganda protec Ionite. The mortality among tin* na il vea in the quest for rubber is enor mous. The natives are equipped for their hunts by the brokers and venture to tin* haunts of tlie caoutchouc trees in boats and by marches through miles i»f thick forests. Hut the climate ear ries off tin* rubber hunters like tiles, and the percentage of those who re turn from the expedition is very low. Many properties of a vegetable emul sion are possessed by tin* sup. which contains tlx- caoutchouc in the torn of myriads of minute globules. The proc ess of tapping tlx* trees for tin* sap is closely akin to tlx* method of extract ing sirup from fix* maple trees in North America. The sap is collected In large vats. The Juice is then sub mitted to a heat and smoke treatment. A tire of palm nuts is made, and a pole is inserted in the vat containing tlx* viscid fluid. When withdrawn from the vessel the end of the pole is be smeared with tlx* sticky substance, j The rubber is then held ifi tlie smoke issuing fr mi the palm nut fire until the sap coagulates. The treatment in the peculiar smoke effects the curing of tie* rubber. When tlx* operation is completed the pole with its charge is once more im mersed in the vat of raw caoutchouc and the smoke and heat process re peated and so on several times until there is a large knob or accumulation of rubber upon the end of tin* pole con stituted of hundreds of thin layers of rubber. The end of the pole is then cut out of the rubber, and the spherical mass is duly examined by the broker and labeled according to its quality. ENTERTAINING ROYALTY. Till* Tail la AIivum u Moat Trying mid TVdlona One*. It must at times, despite the honor, la* a somewhat tedious function for u lliitish subject to entertain the king, for the house and all therein are for the time of the king's visit royal property. At luneheon or dinner the host and his guests remain standing until roy ally appears. Then the host, if the queen or a princess be present, escorts her to the table, the hostess following with the king. If the king Is alotie he leads with the hostess. Neither host nor hostess can give the signal for leaving the table, hut must await the royal pleasure. If the queen ora princess be present, when she rises she Is followed by the hostess, who for ... Is the lady In waiting. As it Is not the proper thing for a servnnt to hand anything to a sovereign, when tea or coffee is served it Is tlrst handed to the hostess, who herself offers It to the king or queen. Oddly enough, lin ger glasses at dessert are. when royal tv dines, placed for them only. When tiie sovereign dons a wrap no servant is permitted to help, hut a lady or gen tleman must assist. Another rule is that If there Is card playing for money colli fresh from the mint must he on hand for the oeenslon. The guests for these royal house par ties are selected by the royal person ages often weeks and sometimes months In advance, and an Invitation to them is really royal command. These house parties are always very small, aud it goes without saying of the very smart set Philadelphia Ledger. Siiul»l»!nil a (iraml l)uLi‘. When the Russian < iraml Duke Ser gins, who was blown to pieces with a dynamite bomb, was governor of War saw lie thought it would be a good idea If the people of that city would con tribute to a fund with which to buy sunflower seeds to be given to the Rus shin soldiers, who are very fond of chewing them. Sergius announced that every one sending money would be given a receipt, but those sending l,nnn rubles ($M0> or more would be ihunktsl personally by himself. It Is said that the response was excellent. Hut, though no one sent In 1,000 rubles and asked to be thanked personally by j the grand duke, many sent In UNO ru ' hies and asked fin* the receipt.
