PTO - According to the, Wallapais the Grand canyon was ‘made single- handed, after a’ certaln flood, . by. thelr cultus hero, Pack-i-tha-a-wi, who was armed with a large filnt knife and a big stick. Once upon a time the world was covered so deep | with water that nobody knew what to do until Pack-i-tha-a-wi took t initiatlve. The knife he thrust deep into the heart ‘of the earth, hammering it in with the big stick | ‘and moving it ‘strenudusly back and forth untif the canyon was formed, which drew all the’ Water from off the earth into the Sunset Be Another legend says, that’ thera | Was a@ great chief who mourned the death of his wife and would not be, comforted until Taywoats, one of the Indian gods, came to him and, Pats him his wife was in a happier: Mand, and offered to‘take him there * that he might see for himself If, mourn, The great chief promised. hea Taywoats made a_ trail through the mountains. ‘The trail was the canyon gorge of the Colo- rado, Through it the god led the chief, and when they had returned the deity extracted ‘from the chieg a promise that he would tell nov One of the joys of that land, lest, through discoptent with this world, they should desire to go to heaven. Tren he rolled a river Into: the | gorge so broad and raging that It j would engulf any that might at- | ‘expt to enter thereby.—Detroit | News. : | LANDS FREE FROM SNAKES | Ireland, New Zealand, Japan, Tae- mania and Patagonia Not Bothered With Reptiles. The Irish are fond of boasting ot the immunity of their’ island from snakes. It ig, true that Ire-- Jand does not possess any snakes, but she is by no means the only country so blessed. ‘There are no snakes in New Zealand, and few wisonous insects, New Zealand Kee a spider which is rather pot- sonous, and, of course, it has, its mosquitoes, but on .the whole it ts remarkably free from venomous reptiles and insects, Canada, for ‘the greater part, is free from snakes, esPecially those | of the poisonous variety, and this is more strange because. the rattle- snake is quite common in the northern part of the United States. Here and there in the ranges of British Columbia a few stray raj- tlers may be found, but as a rule the border line between the two countries marks the northernmost limit of this reptile. yeh Patagonia is‘another snakeless country. There are no snakes in Iceland, while Japan and Tasmania are also places where these rep- tiles are rare, Up to the Widow. Speaking on the marriage laws at a meeting presided over by un archdeacon, a curate remarked that it was not generally known that « man could aot marry his widow's cousin. . “Widow's sister, you mean,” cor- rected the president. “No,”. replied the youthful cleric, “I mean widow's cousin,” The archdeacon ‘was on his feet in an instant. His law must not , be challenged by a curate. “I tell you,” he said, “a man may marry his widow's cousin, but not his widow's sister. You must real- ly allow me to know.” “But,” persisted the curate, “how can a man do anything in the way of marrying when his wife is a widow?” . Man With Six Senses. . At Notodden, Norway, a man has been discovered who possesses a sixth sense. Several times he has been used by the police to trace stolen property, buried in some cases many miles from the scene of the robbery. In one case he de- | scribed accurately where certain goods were, although he did not leave his own room, | ‘When a valyhble dog was lost-on | one occasion, and the police had | pursued a fruitless search for many days, the nf™n sald the dog was tu be found at the top of a long val- ley some miles away. Search was made, and he was found to be cor- | rect, The man, whose name Is Hal- | vorsen, is claimed to -have found | iron ore beneath deep snow, jo A Problem for Burbank.

A parliamentary. candidate in a rural @istrict made .the following remark in the’ course of his ad- dress: “There is~no question in the world “which ‘cannot be an- swered with-just ‘Yes’ or ‘No’.” An old farm. laborer jumped up. and sald+.

The_El Molo, a tribe of “fish- men” ‘who iuhabft' the’ desert wasteg, bordering Lake Rudolf, in Kenya Colony, Africa, are un doubtedly the most amazing racq of human beings. This. tribe rep- resenta the, only. known specimeng of ‘semi-amphYblous ‘people, and it is “a cutious fact that any tribes; man dies if he is kept from wat for about three hours. As a rule they drink every hour during the ‘day, for even an hour and a halt without water: causes cracking anil bleeding of the ips.

RED DEEP-SEA SHRIMPS Specimens Fished Up in the Med: Iterranean_at a Depth of More Than a Mile. - A shrimp, a magnificent creature length, was among the specimens fished up In the Mediterranean at a, depth of. more than a mile, tn researches conducted by the late prince, of Monaco, The .prince| | spent’ much of hig spare time dredging in deep waters for strange | 2 creatures which -live In the ink- black, icy-cold abyases of the sea. The, Mediterranean creature is of a gorgeous red: color, and hag feathered feet: It is pleasant to eat, and large enough, that one shrimp is ‘sufficient for a govil meal for a hungry man. But the oddest part About {t Is the color.

One day a man named Would- have was out walking when he was, asked by qn‘ old woman ty heip her lift a can of water whicn she had filled by means of a brok~| en wooden bowl, The bowl was floating on the surface of the water, and ashe talked to the woman, Wouldhave turned it over with his finger. It immediately righted itself. Amused + by its, antics. he. repeated the per- | formance; then. it struck. him that he had‘ made a wonderful discov- ery. The result of his chan: meeting was the self-righting life- beat, which was designed by ifm on the. lines of the broken howl. What he had discovered was | that anything made of floating ma- | terial, and. shaped. like one-half of | a basin could float only with its convex surface downwards. A boat made on these lines cannot remain upside down for more than an in- stant when it is turned over by a heavy. sea, From Weol to Suit in’a Day. In numerous industries . the-e have been conspicuous examples of what can be accomplished jn the way of speed when human energy as well as mechanical appliances are put to the test against time. For example, an English baronct | once wagered that he would dine at seven o'clock in a suit of clothes | made from wool which had been growing on the sheep's. back the game day. Operations began at five o'clock in the morning with the washing of sufficient sheep to From a neigi- boring factory the wool was re- | t© noon, but early enough to permit ‘ailor and‘ his assistants cotn- pleting the suit by seven o'clock, in plenty of time for the baronet to don it. preparatory to sitting jown to his evening meal. i ; Faithful.
