Typewriters are now wade for use in nearly a hundred different languages. and they are sold all over the world, ;b\xt there is still one great nation which. for a very simple reason, has ino typewriters that write its tongue. That nation is China. The English alphabet has twenty-six letters, the Russian thirty-six. The typewriter produced -for the Russian i market is the largest made, but no i typewriter could be made that would ‘beg—iu to be big enough for the Chinese language. which has no alphabet, but is represented by sign characters, of which there are about 50,000. Of the great number of words found in the English language only a small proper- tion are used for the ordinary purposes as to the characters used in the Chi- nese language. but the number of Chi- nese characters commonly employed is still far greater than could be put on any typewriter. So this nation of 400.- own tongue. But that doesn’t mean that no type- writers are sold in China. More and imore Chinese are learning other lan- merchants and resident foreigm mer- chants use typewriters, and they are used in legations and--in consular of- fices and in banks and shipping offices iand colleges and by missionaries, by various people. Altogether there are sold in China a good many typewrit- ers.—Washington Post. AN ANCIENT LEGEND. Creation of the Cocoanut, the Wakwak 1 and the Palm Tree. ‘According to the opinion of the old historians and the commentators of the Koran. God created from the re- mainder of the clay of which Adam was made the kullseer, or cocoa tree. which is found in abundance in the {Indian islands. It produces a nut which is brought to Anatolia and Roomili. The interior and oily part i8 nourishing and fortifying food. The shell is worked into spoons and cups of the size of a man's head. It is a round black nut on which all the parts of a man's head may be seen— mouth. nose, evebrows. eyes, hair and whiskers—before it was formed from Adam’s clay. A wonderful sight! From the same clay God created also the wakwak. found in India. the fruit of which resembles a man's bead, which, shaken by the wind. emits the sound of wakwak. Finally was created also the palm tree from the remainder of Adam’s clay at Kufa. near the water Tinnoor. This is said to be the reason why the palm trees of Kufa.

If you cut its branches it does not only no harm to it, but grows even more, like the hair and beard of men. but if you cut off the head of the palm tree it gives a teddish juice like blood, and the tree perishes like a man whose head is cut off. —Evlia Effendi. “Travels.” Blunders by Novelists. Novelists, even of eminence, are prone to make blunders. Sir Walter Besant in “For Faith and Freedom™ wrote after the Eykins bad settled in Providence. “Barnaby soon grew tired | of this guiet life and went on board a steamer bound for England. promising that we should hear from him.” This was in 1686 or 1687. and the first steamer from America to this country did not reach Liverpool till July, 1814. Wilkie Collins also made numerous amazing blunders. In *“The Duel In Herne Waod" he makes the story opens with tbe receipt of a telegram. and the period is 1817. when twenty years had to elapse before the first telegraphic wire was laid. Three of the characters also talk of “taking the express train to London” in defiance of the fact that the first railway to London was not opened till 1838. Two Seats 'n the Aisle.

Now one can be got for §75.000.” “Seventy-five thousand dollars!” shouted Gates. “If a man went down to the exchange with $75.000 real mon- ey he could get two seats on the mid- dle aisle.”"—New York Sun. The Jenny Lind Rock. The Ohio river claims among its treasures the Jenny Lind rock. The singer was a passenger on a steamer which struck on a sand bar near the rock. and while waiting for the boat to be floated Miss Lind had boatmen row her out to the rock. where she stood alone and sang a song.
