More Than a Thousand Light. houses and Lightships « Under ControP of Trinity Heuss. More than a thousand lght- houses and lightships guard the > coasts of the British Istes,-and alf are under the control, directly.or ti directly,,of Trinity house. For the purpose of control the’ coast is di- vided into districts, of which the , London district is the most impor. taht.” It extends from Southwold in Suffolk to the North Foreland in Kent. The stores for this district are | kept at Trinity wharf, at Black- well, and here are to be seen casks , of ofl, anchors, mooring chains, ; complete lanterns and machinery ; of many sorts, as well as quantl- -Kitles of buoys of different gizes, shapes and colors. The anchors used for moort lghtships are huge implements of | iron shaped Ike great umbrellas, | and as for the mooring chains, ‘these are tested by hydraulic power up to 300 tons. 4 Can buoys, spherical buoys, wreck buoys, bell and gas buoys, ate here by ®he score. Some are ¢ new; others are old and battered, and have been brought in for paint- ing and repair. Painting buoys goes on all the year round, and the work is done by the men who are ashore from lightships or lighthouses. Life on a lightship fs no joke, especially + in bad weather, and each man after ey two months afloat gets a month | ashore. Since accidents sometimes hap- | * pen to lightships, a relief sttlp fs always kept moored at the wharf | ready to start at a moment's no- | tice to replace any vessel which ‘ has drifted from her moorings or | been sunk in collision—London z MZ - ’ ~ HENRY APPLEGATE TRADED HiS PLEASURE CAR TO HOKE BURTON -MR BURTON Took HIS FIRST. £) Ti-Bits. TELLS THEFT WHEN A BOY Speaker on Honesty Says a Queer Shiver Ran Up His Spine and He Put Fruit Back, | Mr. Moneybags, the English prof- iteer, had just bought the largest house in the country town, and 80 # he was recognized as the unofii- | i _ cial squire of the place. i He was in great demand as a speaker at all the local funcijons, and that is how he came to De on the platform at the annual prize- giving, due to give am address on “Honesty.” s } ‘When his turn came to speak he related how, when quite a boy, he saw a cart of melons outside a shop and nobody in sight. : “On the spur of the moment,” he sald impressively—‘on the spur of the moment, I say, I took one of those melons—” He paused for effect, and was not disappointed. The whole audi- ence gave one.gasp at the idea of their local bigwig doing such a thing. “But,” he went on, “Instantly a queer sensation assailed me and | a shiver went through me. I made = up my mind, and I_went back to the cart and replaced the melon— (loud applause)—and took a riper one!”—Pittsburgh Chronicle. Le Scientific View of Earth. ! ‘A French scientist finds in the | great depths of the Arctic ocean | an argument tending to show that the earth is slightly topshaped, the * protuberance corresponding to the point of the top being at the South pole. This, he thinks, would ex- plain the different results arrived at by the various measurements of astronomers and geqdesists. The differences are very small in comparison with the entire bulk of the globe, yet they are readily ap- preclable, and one of the explana- tions that has been suggested for them is that the earth Is tetrahe’ dral in form. But the Frenchman thinks the top-shape theory is (preferable. ‘The fact that to an eye looking at the earth from a point in space it would not sensibly differ in appearance from a true sphere shows how refined are the methods of sclence which enable men living on the surface of the globe to detect variations in. its ~ general contour.—Ngw York Stn. ———— + Star Four Years Away: If the light of all ‘the star® were to go out at once, it would at least four years before we noticed any difference in thelr light. After that time these’ lghts in the sky would disappear one by one, ac- eording to thelr distance from the earth, No one living today would see the last starlight go out if all their. lights’ were ‘extingt vat once. The nearést star takes four and one-half years for ‘its light. t6 OUT OUR WAY .

I have often wondered why this dignified palace is hot used as. a background by some enterprising “movie” producer, says Sir John Foster Fraser, Tt is a delight to saunter through the banqueting hall and the au- dience chamber and the king's hed, room and the queen’s antechamber and look at the paintings by Peter Lely and Godfrey Kneller of the ladies who tvere court favorites {n the roystering days of the restora- tion after Charles II came back to the throne. I generally go down to Hampton court to visit a dear old idy, for though the palace belongs to the king, he makes no use of {t except that he gives suites of apartments to the not well-to-do widows of men who have served the state in some distinguished capacity. Can you imagine a more charming gift than a suite of apartments in a place like Hampton court with its peace and unrivaled Old world gar- dens?—Arts and Decorations. The Seven Sleepers. Seven noble youths of Ephesus, who, according to an early Chris- tlan legend first related by Gregory of Tours, fled from the city, during a persecution under the Emperor Decius (249-261 A. D.), and took refuge in a cave on Mount Cellon. There they were discovered by their pursuers, who walled up the entrance in order to starve them to death; but owing to a remark- able interposition in their behalf they were caused to fall into a deep sleep, and were thus’ miracu- lously preserved for nearly 200 years. They died soon after awak- ening, nd their,bodies were trans- ferred to Marseilles, France, in a stone sarcophagus, which 1s still shown to visitors to the church of St. Victor, in that city. Accord- ing to Gregory, the names of the “seven sleepers” were Constantine, Dionysius, John, Maximian, Mal- chus, Martinian or Marcian, and Serapion, A festival in their honor fs celebrated in the Roman Catholic .church July 27. ‘The legend of the “seven sleepers” is widely ¢urrent in the East. It is of Syrian origin, and otcurs in the Koran. Haunted by Lightning. An Australian government. in- spector, traveling In the northern territory, was caught in an appall- ing storm and took refuge In a tun- nel in the rocks. ,Tlils place was about 100 yards Tong, 20 feet wide and 20 feet high. When the storm and darkness began ta pass the Inspector realized that cluse by him were a number of mummified bodies. He counted between 40 and. 45. is The natives told him that these were the reniains of a tribe that had camped in the tunnel during a storm and-had (all been killed by ‘iightning.’ "They Were aminzed that he: had survived, for:they spoke of the: place as being “haunted by lightning.” if :
