The rock: where it stopped was flat and al- though a little paint was taken off it never deaked a drop. It is like a - chunk of car rubber—you might bend it, but break it, never.” Cornelius A. Mantin, @ passenger, says: Captain Hokanson said last night: “The Baston was making about ‘half speed when it ran into a bank of fog. The Iroquois reef projects out of the lake about three feet. The reef’s end is not more than thirty feet from the regular course of boats on the shore rocks. In the haze and snow the Easton went straight into this pile of rocks. I was standing well forward and felt the first lift of the boat’s nose as it began to climb. The wheel stopped the instant the bell was sounded and then began madly reversing, but the momentum of the boat loaded with heavy cargo was enough to make it crawl out of water and partly across the reef. Then it stopped, after falling on its left side. . “Everybody came on deck, passen- gers and crew, and lanterns were let down to see just where we had land- ed. Discovering rocks at both sides of us, we knew we were high and dry. The Easton’s nose was five feet in the water and its wheel was as mudh out on the other side of the reef. “When the lighter came it ap- proached from the shore side of the reef. Seventy tons or more of cargo were lightered from the rear of the Easton and the remainder was piled in the bow. Thus over-balanced to- ward the water it easily was pulled off the Teef.” Some time late in January this lit- tle steamer of 460 tons and 155 feet in length breaks ice and dares gales up the bleak north shore to deliver freight to the isolated towns of that district. The cause given by the crew for ithe Easton’s slow trip back from the Iroquois reef was. prosaic and com- meoial enough. “We picked up a full cargo of fish,” they said. HORNET. Mrs. J. D.

LEGEND OF NATURAL BRIDGE It Saved the Mohegans and Wag Thenceforth Called by Them the Bridge of God. At a height of 215 feet above Clear creek in Virginia stands the famous natural bridge known all over tha world. Built of solid rock forty feet thick, it spans the creek. It is a reat natural wonder. Our great and beloved national hero, George Wash: dngton, once climbed it and carved his name upon its side. The Mohegan ftribe of Indians called it the Bridge of God and ascribed to it this super matural origin. Once upon a time it happened that the Mohegans were at war with a hos tile tribe of Indians. The fight was hot, and a valiant stand they made against their foe. But at last the Mo- hegans were forced to glve way and to retreat. On and on they went, the whole tribe with their women and children, and the enemy behind them. Finally they came to a precipice. Be- low yawned a cavern, wide and deep, and no way to cross or means to es- cape was anywhere to be seen. Peril- ous and helpless indeed was the plight of the Mohegans. They wers ready to give up and submit to the eruel fate that was pursuing them. Then a wise man of the tribe spoke. “My children,” he said, “go down upon rour knees and pray to. the Great Bpirit above, who alone can save us 'rom our misfortunes.” All in & body they obeyed the words of the old medicine man. Long and hard they prayed. When they finally lifted up their heads, lo, there stood 1 mighty bridge. Across it they now ied the women and children, and then turned upon their foes, who were tlose at hand. They gave the enemy 3 hard battle and finally repulsed and e vereatea tnem. TIn gratefulness to Manitou, the Great Spirit of the world, they named this bridge the Bridge of —— Smoke Abatement In Scotland. The gas and electrical departmepts of a corporation in Glasgow, Scotland, pre competing keenly in the exhibi- tion of appliances for the reduction of pmoke from furnaces and Kkitchen ranges. The electricity department: has a complete electrically fitted res- taurant, where all the cooking, the kitchen work, the cleaning, the heat- ing and the lighting are effected by plectric current. The gas department has a “gas equipped house,” in which pll the cooking and heating is done by gas fires, as well as many of the oth- er operations in connection with house- keeping, and in which all the lighting is obtained from incandescent gas burners of different types. The cor- poration is encouraging the reduction. of smoke, not only by holding these eriodical exhibitions, but also by ending gas cookers free to all the citizens. It has loaned 37,000 of these jcookers since March 1. It is also pupplying gas fires, and the demand for these has been so great that it rannot be met without considerable delay. A Des Moines man had an attack of muscular rheumatism in his shoul- der. A friend advised him to gé to Hot Springs. That meant an expense of $150.00 or more. He sought for| a quicker and cheaper .way to cure it and found it in Chamberlain’s Lin- iment. Three days after the first ap- plication- of this . liniment he was well.
