Oe O the net meeting thyr.0,nt.esucceeded in 1 getCng the idea accepted that they t;hoviti get held of the new popular songs and also work up some of the old avoutes, and that there shaeld be a song after each number on the program, but the big point of it was that every one joinmust in, singer ••••••• A Singing "Literary." The people in our eornmunity had met regularly in the schoolhouse every Friday night for "literary" dur- ing several years, but they seemed to be getting into a rut. The younger folks especially were not very excited About the meetings. Attempts at brightening up the progrete helped some, and occasional partie 4 of the usual "bid -for -a -supper - basket" kind heal a pod effect, but not for icing. The enthusiasm with whieh the younger people rang on their way to and from the meetings filially sug- gested an idea. Of course, they had alwaye had some singing at the "lit- erary," but it wasn't of the jcvial, spontaneous kind that was needed. At and They knew very well that no one would actually tee] like joining in whert the • got to agree that every one should pay a three -cent fine‘for every song not participated in. To enforce the rule, Inspectors were appointed who, them- selves singing heartily all the time, watched for people not joining in. It was necessary to choose exactly the right people for this. At first many people moved their lips and merely pretended to sing, but that led them on to singing heartily. By the fourth week of the new style thething was an. undoubted suc- cess. The spirit of the place was entirely -changed.- The old awkward- ness that every one had shared before gave way to a sort of thrill of interest in everything. Perhaps the people exere all wondering what the next e,ng would be. Whatever the reason, they took a keen interest in every- thing. They had now -dropped the "fines" system, and use another method. Some one—generally the school -teacher .or the minister, but sometimes a real singing teacher—sits on the platform during all the singing, and after each ;song Marks up on the blaeltboard a stroke for whichever side of the room sang. the beet. The rivalry runs very high each week and each month for . the highest score, and the room is al- ways divided sharply into the two sections. . Moreover, the rivalry -is of a particularly merry and good-natur- ed sort. A singing "literary" after this fashion is a sure-fire success.— I'. W. W.

Much of the etorm's terrific damage at Connie Christi is said to have beeu caused by a "tidal wave" of great height, which swept,- away entire Meeks of houses. But what is a tidal wave? It has nothing whatever to do with the tides. Any great onrush of the sett that overwhelms the land is called a tidal wave. In 1807 suck a wave threw the United States cruiser Mo- nongahela Clear out of the harbor and into the town of leriedrichstadt, on the island 'of Saute. Cruz. Such waves may be due to various causes. They may represent a. heap- ing up of masses of water by a hurri- cane of wind, as at Corpus Christi. Or an earthquake under the sea may be the cause. Submarine volcanic eruptions are of not very infrequent occurence, and earthquakes are liable to accompany them. Or a mere slipping of strata in the sea -floor may cause earth- quakes. If, incidentally to the volcan- ic or seismic disturbance, one part of the- sea -floor sinks or another part rises, there must be a consequent rush of water, which may assume the pro- portions of what is called a tidal wave. The great earthquake that destroyed Libson in 1755 was supplemented by a tidal wave which rolled up the valley of the Tagus from the ocean, sub- merging all the lower portions ofethei, city and' destroying thousands of lives. Twenty-five years ago Japan was visited by a series of terrific tidal waves, which ran, fifteen or twenty miles inland. They accompanied great earthquake shocks. The tidal wave above mentioned, at Santa Cruz, also struck gt. Thomas, where a wall Of water that looked fifty feet high ran up over the land. There were severe earthquakes all night, and the people, believing that the .island was going to sink, besought the com- mander of an American warship (which had survived the wave by a rnide grail -retard pada at 1/01, ape! a amoll portion of ,Halasoa• Posium.CereatUttioiqi .

The method of handling posts, poles and logs at different times of the year, however, does influence their durabil- ity. Late spring and summer' tutting: Posts, poles and other rough products ut in late spring and early summer ere more likely to be attacked by in, sects and fungi, because the wood is freshly cut and in the most favorable condition for attack at a time when insects and the spores of fungi are most active. Seasoning also proeeeds more rapidly during the warmer menthe and may cause excessive checking. If the wood is peeled when cut, and piled openly on skids for sea- soning, the opportunity for decay will be reduced to a minimum, but check- ing will not be retarded. In no case should the wood be allowed to lie in direct contact with the ground. Check- ing can be reduced somewhat by-locat- ina the piles in a shaded but dry place. Tite bark peels most easily in spring. It can be removed at any other time of the year, but the labor and expense will probably be greater. Fall and winter cutting: Timber cut in late fall and winter seasons more slowly and with less checking than during the warmer months. Wfien,,, proper storage or handling is imprae-' tkable, winter cutting is best. Fungi and npeets do not attack wood out -of - doers in cold weather, and by the time warm weather arrives the woad is partly seasoned and less susceptible to attack. It is far this reason that winter cutting is advantageous, and not on account of a smaller amount of, loieture or sap in the wood in winter, as the popular belief has k. Nor does there seem to be much to the mom, theory. HEALTH FOR THE BABY The baby of to -day Is the man ex" woman of to-morrew.

The most enormous of all eyes are those of the giant squid, a cephalopod that attains a length of 150 feet, two- thirds of which, however, is represent- ed by its pair of long-distance ten- tacles. No specimen so large has ever been captured, but its eyes—circular, lid- less and glaring with a horrible green- ish-lustre—would probably be not less than two feet in diameter. A small fifty -footer in the Smithsonian Insti- tution has eyes with a diameter of twelve inches. Minard's Liniment Co., Limited.

In classi- fying dwellings by the number of rooms the figures show that out of 22.9,423 private dwellings in New Zea- land 9,000 had one room, 8,380 two rooms, 10,500 three rooms, 49,000 four rooms, 58,000 five rooms, 50,000 six rooms, 22,000 seven» rooms and 10,800 eight rooms. Country districts ac- count for most *of the small houses. The overwhelming prominence of wood in the construction of dwellings in New Zealand is shown by the fact that 219,000 were.constructed of wood, 7,000 of brick, 1,280 of atone and 1,680 of concrete. In many counties there was not a single dwelling built of brick or stone, but these districts were in the back -blocks of New Zealand, where there are but few houses. Of the total dwellings and tene- ulents 109,000 are being rented, 12,000 bought me time payment, 55,000 bought ou mortgage and 56,860 the unencum- bered property of the occupauts.

His Special Gift. A school trustee visited one of the schools over which he bears rule, and made something of a speech to the assembled children. "Now," said the great man, "the thing that you want to keep in mind is that you should always seek to do some one thing better than anyone else can do it. You can begin to do that right now. Tell me—is there any- one among you who can do that one thing better than anyone else?" A youngster held up his hand. "And what is it?" "I can read my own writing better than anyone else can," said the boy. Minar.I's Liniment Cures Garget ixt cows. Had a Better One.
