Why Their acmes Are (round Near
Salt ar Sulphur Springs.
„Wherever you find salt or sulphur
springs," says a gentleman connected
with the United States geological sur.
vey, "you may expect to lied the bones
et mastodons end other huge creatures
that have now become extinct. Many
persons suppose that the presence of
these bones in great numbers' indicates
that the animals bad a sort of coronion
c•enletery, like the llamas of Chile,
which when they felt death coming on
always made for the nearest stream or
pond and, if they could get there, died
in the water.
"That, however, is likely only a su-
perstition. The mastodon bones In a
salt or sulphur marsh indicates that
the animals went there to di1lult the
water and occasionally one gots mired
and was suffocated. The great nutn-
hors of the bones do not prove that a
whole herd of mastodons was drowned
at once, but that one being mired ev-
ery year or so during several centuries
would in time cause a great accumula-
tion of bones. Missouri has a bone
marsh at Sulphur Springs; there is a
great mine of thorn at the Salt Springs
in Kentucky ant" at several places in
Ohio and Indiana where there are
saline springs. A great spring in Fier -
Ida. one of the four or five huge out-
lets which are grouped under the name
of Silver Spring, Is called "the bone
yard" because the bottom and sides
are masses of mastodon bones."

And that we'll surely spoil a boy of just

But I'll refuse him nothing while I've

A WAR OF MAPS.
Bolivia Wiped Out England and the
British Isles.
"Bolivia Is the only country that ever
wiped England off the map," said
Frank Roberson. "It came about this
way: The British ambassador several
years ago gave a dinner for the official'
and social circle people of Bolivia.
"When they arrived at the embassy
they found that he was not married
to the woman seated at the bend of the
table, and they left. In the name of
his government he demanded an neol-
ogy, whereupon the gov'eruineut gore
him twenty-four hours to get out of
the country.
"inasmuch as little Bolivia is way
oft the orenn and practically lost in
the eternal mouut.aius Great Britain
could not by guns get the retraction
that she wanted, but her mnpmak-
ers got revenge by issuing maps whol-
ly eiiiniunting Bolivia.
"Finally this information reached Bo-
livia, whereupon with u stroke of the
pen new maps were ordered for the Bo-
livian government and the Bolivian
schools. They showeu more ocean
than any other maps ever printed. The
British isles had been sunk into the
sea. And so far as the people and
school children of Bolivia are concern-
ed there is no Great Britain.'

Hail to the. Great Dominion,
Her fag in pplandor flies
Upon the wind's wild pinion
'Neath blue Canadian ekies;
And when the breezes hear it
Aloft on tower or flood,
It wakes the kingly spirit
It stirs our Viking blood.
The fathers of onr nation
Save builded sure and strong
On broad and deep foundations
Of valor, truth and song;
They oame while yet 'twits morning,
They throned the true and best
And bonds and barriers seeming,
They dared the dauntless West.
Onr might shall melt the mountains,
Onr commerce gird the eeae,
Our forests. fields and fountains
Give music to the breeze,
Here Scotland's purple thistle
With England's tree shall atancl,
The fienr•de lis sba11 listen
To the harp of Ireland.,
Never may blight of bat 'le
Or thundering steel•tiirt host,
Sword -clang or war• drum's rattle
Disturb our pesoeful coast,
The bulwarks of our own land
God and the right shall be
Onr Canada the homeland
Of power and liberty.
Build. then a flaming altar
And with rte sacred fire
Of love and praise exalt her,
The Land of our desire.
Oh happy consummation,
Oh destiny sublime,
To be a righteous nation,
The standard for all time.

Why He "Let 'Em Grow."
"Yes, I've given up shaving," he told
his friends. "1 never could shave my-
self, and the last time I was operated
on i was in such a blue funk that 1
shudder to think of it. The barber
had n musical ear, and he lathered me
to the trine of 'The Blind Boy,' which
was being ground out by a barrel organ
close by. Slow certainly, but nothing
to complain about. By the time the
scraping process had commenced the
tune had changed to the liveliest Of
jigs, and the musical shaver seemed to
be enjoying himself hugely as he did
his best to keep time. I was afraid to
take a breath for fear it would be my
last.
'Then the organ stopped, but only
for a second, and when 1- beard the
strains of 'Stop Your Ticklbh, Jock,' 1
vowed that rather than run the risk of
being finished off in a barber's chair
by a musical maniac I would let 'ern
grow for the future and chance the
crop." -Modern Society.
His Parting Shot. .
The late Catholic bishop Raphoe, Ire-
land, used often to tell this story with
nincli enjoyment. "I was suddenly call-
ed," he said, "frons my home to see an
unfortunate sailor who had been cast
ashore from a wreck and was lying
speechless on the ground; but not quite
dead. 'The life's in hhn still, your
reverence -he stirred a little,' so 1
stooped dovfu and said to him. 'My
poor man, you're nearly gone, but just
try to say one little word or make one
little sign to show that you are dyin
in the true faith: So he opened one of
hitt eyes just a wee bit, and he said,
'Bloody end to the popes' and so died."
Every Bird a Weathercock.
"Where's the wind?" scoffed the sail,
or. "Why, look at the birds. They'll
tell you. Don't you know that every,
bird's a weathercock? Stop moistenin'
your finger and hotdin' it up," he went
on in a tone of disgust. "The practice
ain't hardly cleanly. Look at the birds
is all you got to do, for every bird sets
with its head always straight at the
wind. Every live bird in a tree is all
reliable a weathercock as them dead
birds on the spires."

SUCCESS, BY A FAILURE.
[Pall Mall Gazette 1
When you are -Nobody,
And live afar
In garret happily
Beneath some star,
How great you plan to be,
What things you'll dare,
When yon are Somebody,
And hava-no care!
Bow sweet it seems,
How sweet, eh, ycs t
The golden dream
Men call success!
When you are Somebody,
And all you meet
Bow down in flattery
Beneath your feet;
What of the friends you knew,
Who saw yon climb -
Are they still true to yon,
As in past time?
Ah 1 well a -day 1
For who could guess
The price you pay
To win success?
But when 'tis yours at last,
You'd give your gold •
To live again the past,
The days of old;
The days yon laved so well,
When friends were few,
When, though yon failed and fell,
Your friends were true.
Ah! well a -day 1
For wko could geese
The price you pay
To win success?
The flattering ring,
The false caress,
And that's the thing

freely give you my consent,
You'd do it anyway,
Pile up the rubbish in the yard,
Set all the shrubs askew
And tear the shingles from the barn
That you may whistle through.
Yank down the washing from the line
And send It through the air.
The laundry lass can follow UP
If it goes on a tear.
Send plug hate flying down the street
Or roll them in the ditch,
That men, both fat and dignified,
The language may enrich.
Try to restrain your merry mood
When ladies walk along,
Should you their shapely ankles show
That Would be very wrong.
But to the husky grocer boy
No tender mercies allow,
Get busy, winds! it is your trade
To blow and blow and blow...
