St. Helena nas been an island of tragedies—tragedles that have been lost sight of wailing over .the Cor- slean. On the second day of my visit the governor took me by carriage road through the turns over the island. At one point of our journey the road, in winding around spurs and ravines, formed a perfect W within the dis- tance of a few rods. The roads, though fortuous and steep, were fairly good, and 1 was struck with the amount of Jabor it must have cost to build them. The air on the heights was cool and bracing. It is said that since hanging for trivial offenses went out of fashion no one has died there, except from falling over the cliffs in old age or from being crushed by stones rolling ou them from the steep mountains! Witches at one time were persistent at St. Helena, as with us in, America in the days of Cotton Mather. At the preseut day crime is rave in the island. % Th2 Ancient Dragon. The pterodactyl, whose fossil re- mains have heen found in the chalk at Cambridge, England, and elsewhere, with a ve varied spread of wings, which fn thie largest specimens must have reachad twenty-five feet, is al- most idenncal with the dragon of fable. A Datlike creature, with an elevated body and long neck ending in an absurdly small head- with a por tentous beak. it could run very swift- 1y, was a fish eater and could swim, or it flew by means of huge membra- nous wings, which connected its long fore quarters with its hind legs.. The pterodactyl evidently existed down to a comparatively recent geological peri- od, and it is not at all improbable that the traditional dragon is described from the last living specimens as met with by primitive man; Simplified Spelling Effects, “We find in the letters we receive,” said the correspondence clerk, ‘“some marvelous esamples of simplified spell- ing, some of {hese unconsclously pho- netic, some evidently deliberately in- tended, some that, though they serve their purpose wonderfully, verge on the comic. For instance, we received yesterday a letter from a man who starts off in this way: ““What fx would follow’— and so on. “Of course the meaning of that was | perfectly plain, but the bookkeeper and 1 had to smile over it for a moment, and when we showed it to the stenog- rapler he said that the man who could write words like that ought not to stop at simplified spelling—he ought to go right alead and invent a new short- hand system.”—New York Sun.

When a Chinese writer wishes to ex- press that the wealthy parent of the beroine has set bhis affairs in order in ber favor before dying his idiom is, #He has settled his plums.” *“To have plucked the kwei (cassia) flower™ signi- fies gaining the master’s degree at the triennial examinations. Their idiom for “Let there be no backsliding” is, “Let there be no absorption of sweat.” A runaway wife is said by Liu Chia Chu to “carry her guitar to another door.”” When you wish to say. that you have secured a vindication, you. es- “My adversary has been forced to paint my front door.” ‘When of the city wall_has fallen” —J. S. Thompson’s “The Chinese.” Green Turtles, the coral reefs lying to the north of Jamaica, though It is found in other parts of the West Indies. The creature is caugbt by the employment of ex- tremely strong nets, which are inter- laced between the rocks. Once caught the turtle is taken to Kingston, where it is kept in special sea water pens on the seashore. When in the pens the turtle is provided with a peculiar kind of sea grass, which it likes very much. Curiously enough, when it is taken away from the West Indies it vefuses to eat this grass. Indeed, it will die of starvation sooner than touch the grass, howerver carefully preserved. It takes eight pounds of flesh to make a single quart of soup. Timely Answers. “Do you remember how hungry I was at seven-thirty last night?” “I should say I do.” “Do you know how I appeased my hunger in a half hour?” “No; what did you do?”’ “Eight a_clock.” “That's nothing. Do you remember how unlucky 1 was at the rafle at twelve-thirty ?” “1 certainly do.” “Well, 1 wasn't so unlucky a hult hour later.” “No? I'm glad to know that. What did you win?” “One a clock.”—Lippincott’s. Lacking In Official Zeal. “I see,” remarked the traveler, “you here. What's the matter? Can’t you leave the punishment of horse thieves to the constituted authorities?”’ “Not by a: durn sight!” said Grizzly Pete. “They ain’t anti enough.”—Chi- zago Tribune. Golden Gate Fogs. The fogs of the Pacific and especial- ly those on the coast of California, Oregon ang Washington present some characteristic features of their own. They are low lying, dense and ‘of fre- quent and regular occurrence and have been (he cause directly and indirectly of a large percentage .of marine ‘dis- asters in the vicinity of San Francisco. Owing to the general movement of the air from the sea toward the land and the climate of the great interior valley. fog is frequent and well marked. In summer the afternoon sea fog varies in depth from 100 to 1,700 feet, but it rarely reaches far inland. On some afternoons the velocity of the wind at San Francisco rises with almost clock- like regularity to about twenty-two miles au hour, and a solid wall of fog, averaging 1500 feet .in beight, comes through the Golden Gate, causing .a fall_in temperature to about that of the sea—namely, 55 degrees F. The upper level of the fog can be plainly seen from (he hills in the vicinity. Above the fog level the air Is clond- less, and the afternoun temperature as the guests of their aunt, Mrs. B. avenue, ranges from 80 degrees F. to 00 de: a great man dies they say, “A corner.|, The green turtle finds its home inj have an anti-horse thief association | i OLLOWING the battleship pa- rade into San Francisco har bor at the opening of the Pan- ama-Pacific International ex- position there will be a program of events of world interest and fmpor- tance in a succession of two months apart interspersed with lesser events— yacht races and motorboat races of an international character for great tro- phies and cash prizes, aviation meets with the famous bird men of the world, Olympic games In which the athletes of the world will take part, in- tercollegiate contests, automobile races in which the holders of the world's records wlill participate in the automo- biles ‘of every nation, military maneu- vers in which the crack infantry and cavalry of this and other nations will participate upon an extended scale. The location of the expositlon gives widest scope for the greatest interna- tional sports program in history. The auto races will pass into Golden Gate park before the concrete coliseum, which will have a seating capacity of 75,000 people. The' military maneu- vers and Olympic games will also be beld in the stadium. On San Francis- co bay motorboats will vie for the world’s records before the Harbor View site of the exposition. The yachtsmen of the /world will sail from Europe across the Atlantic to New York and then through the Panama canal to San Francisco. The Panama-Pacific International ex- position was first proposed by Mr. R. B. Hale, a merchant of San Francisco, in 1904. Mr. Hale wrote a letter to the Merchants’ ‘association, and the idea took like wildfire. At that time it was | anticipated that the canal would be opened in 1913, .and 1913 was the date | set for the exposition. -An ‘organiza- tion of ‘thecommercial bodies began the preliminary work, but in 1906 came | the fire.~No-one was dismayed.

The contributions of Ching and Ja- | pan toward the exposition in magnifi- cence and variety will surpass any- thing ever seen outside of the orient and even in the far east itself. A con- Yellowstone National park, Great Salt lake, Puget sound, the inland trip to Alaska, the government’s huge recla- mation projects in sixteen western states, the Columbia river region, the redwood forests of California, the firs of Oregon, the big trees on the ap- proach to the Yosemite, Arizona and 'New Mexico, youngest of the states; Nevada and some of the greatest miu- ing camps in the world. Perhaps most interesting of all will be thé opportu- nity for a trip through the Panama canal either coming or going. The reconstruction of San Francisco is one of the greatest miracles within the history of American municipalities. Five hundred and eight city blocks, embracing the principal business and residential portions of the city, were wiped from the earth in 1906. The streets were covered in some places with debris forty feet deep, yet today a stranger to the city would never know from its appearance that a fire had occurred. The loss through the fire is estimated by insurance underwriters at $400,000, 000. To reconstruct San Francisco called for greater wealth than was de- stroyed by the fire and far exceeded the cost of building the Panama canal. Since the fire $242,000,000 bas been ex- pended upon new buildings alone. Today San Francisco is the newest city in the world. Its buildings rep- resent the latest type of modern re- | enforced concrete structures. It has more than 1,300 hotels and apartment liouses, with accommodations to suit all persons. In preparing for the Panama-Pacific | International exposition hundreds of Its emissaries ate visiting all the re glons of the world. Fourteen gover- nors of western ‘states on a 4,000 mile trip through the east on a special train recently called attention to the-exposi Tion and hecame hetter acquainted with their hluthom of (ll(- eastern states. dry goo(ls merchant placed a great sign, “Panama-Pacific International Exposition, San Francisco, 1913,” and this became the battlecry in the fight to build a new city. Of more than $20,000,000 now appro- priated by California $7,000,000 has been raised by popular subscriptions, $4,000,000 is assured through a special act of the legislature permitting the counties to tax thems-lves for exposi-- tion purposes, $3,000,000 was appropri- ated by the state of California, and San Francisco has voted a bond issue of $5,000,000. This is the largest sum that has ever beer: raised for g world's exposition at an initial stage, But it is only a starter.

A common complaint made by tour- Ists in Japan is that they are obliged to pay. for everything far higher prices than the natives are charged, or, in other words, that because they are for- eigners they are being fleeced, but a glance at the social conditions by which the people have heen educated would reveal the curious fact that throughout Japan’s long perivd of isolation it was an dccepted principle that the rich must live for the sake of the poor, and prices have always been based upon the purchaser’s rank in society or upon bis presumed ability to pay. This un- derstanding” remains largely in force today, being fully recognized and acted upon by all favored classes throughout the empire. The occidental, coming from lands where the reverse practically holds good—the poor living for the sake of the rich—naturally complains of being robbed, as from his point of view he really is, but it is not-becsuse’ he is a foreigner, but hecause, belng a tourist, he is presun:ably wenlthy.—Arthur May Knapp in the Atinnte Do you know that fully nine out of every ‘ten cases of rheumatism are simply rheumatism of the muscles due to cold or damp, or chronic rheu- ‘matism, _and require no _ internal treatment whatever?

Side excursions from the main line or stop- overs upon any of the eight transcon- tinental systems terminating upon the Pacific coast will afford the visitor an opportunity ‘to see those attractions of America that appeal to him.
