A hermit leads a fascinating life. i So W. D. Clark says, and he ought to I know, for he has been a hermit in the arctic wilderness nearly a quarter of | a century, “Once a hermit, always a hermit,” says Mr, Clark. *“A hermit wants ne- body’s pity. He enjoys bis sclitude and wouldn't trade it for the pleas- ures and excitement of cities. T hase been in civilization a year now and I am going back home to the wilder- ness as quickly as I can. There are no fakirs, swindlers and thieves there.” Mr, Clark's home cabin is «¢n the headwaters of Peel river, 180 miles from Herschel island and 110 miles from Fort McPherson. His nearest neighbor is 56 miles away. They see each other once a year. With the ex- ception, of this~man, Abe Schafer, Mr. Clark is the only human being In a thousand square jpiles of country. The Indians do not}'tlmt far north and the Eskimos, not come that far south. ' “I have seen 10,000 caribou in a herd,” ‘Mr. Clark said. “They go to the arctic coast in the spring to have their young and.in September they re- turn south to the edge of the timber, where they can find shelter and. moss on which they live” " The mercury goes 75 degrees below in winter, Mr. Clark says, but it is the most healthful climate fn the world. Old-timers up there, he de- clares, do not know what sickness means, Way: to Detect Forgery. For decision of forgery and identl- fication of handwriting it is best to turn the writing upside down, accord- ing 'to tests made by the psychology department of the University of Wis- consin at the Universal exposition, where 297 persons tested their ability to discover forgery. Ten signatures on two cards were submitted to visi- tors, and one of the ten was false. For discovering' the false one, the in- verted card was found most helpful. This condition is explained by the fact that for fine judgments it is best to pay attention only to the form of the writing. The Reason. , Little Joe was at grandmother's house for dinner. Although fried chicken and many other mighty good things were on the table, Joe did not | care to eat much. Then grandmother began to coax him. One thing ‘after another she brought to his notice. Finally she said: *“Here's my home- made sugar cookies. Aren’t you going to try some of them, dear?” Little Joe attempted a smile, “That's what is the matter,” he explained. “I tried toc many of them beforg dim er, grand- wa.”—Indianapolis News.

Rope from ships that have sailed the seven seas—that has been tied to every port In the world—ends its ca- reer by guarding the/nation’s tele- .phone conversation. From junk rope Is made the high grade of paper which insulates every wire in a piece of telephone cable. Over 13,000,000 pounds of old rope were fed to the giant vats which tore, vooked, washed and beat into a pulp the ‘makings of 7,000,000 pounds of cable paper used by the Bell Tele- phone system last year. — Queen Keeps Diary 50 Years, Queen Alexandra, it is said, has kept a diary for nearly half a century.
