Very few people are aware of the tremendous “punch” which both rab- bits and hares carry in their hind legs. They are the Joe Becketts of the animal world, weight, the hind legs of hares and rabbits probably reduce the kick of the battery mule to a comparatively innocuous tap. Both hares and rabbits are desperate fighters among them- selves, and their powerful hind legs are their only weapons.

They had exciting experiences in discovering the first leaf of the Hebrew Becclesiasticus. Most generous to Presbyterian causes, they bhenefited Westminster college, Combridge, yery handsomely. Many learned societies' conferred on the sisters distinguished degrees. Mrs. Agnes Lewis will receive much’ sym- pathy on her sister's death. 4 Effects of alcohol on the drinker— and ways of getting rid of them, were narrated by Dr. Edward Mellanby be- fore the Medical Society of London Following are some of his If a man who had takem intoxi- cating lquor shot at a target, he would think he had done better than before, when he really had done worse, |, If a man got drunk and kept run- and, weight for| ning about, he would get sober sooner than by slegping.

In the fifteenth end sixteenth cem- turies Helgoland was a center of the North sea herring fisheries. Then the nerring veered back to Scotland’s coast and the islanders handed dewn a tale of the impiety by which they farfeited the boen. Yearly they would form in procession to march about the isiand fe invoke the coming of the fish. One spring, when they had gone byt half the route, the herring were sighted. They abandoned the rite and made for the beats. The herring nev- er came again—National Geographic Magazine. Petpgleum’s Discovery.
