Discovery Made by Chance. The discovery was made more or less' accidentally when an airman who took photographs in "the course of his military work 'mend on them cer- tain strange markings'.. On ploughed land these appeared as bands of. lighter colored soil, formeng a pattern of irregular squares and rectangles. The clew to the nature of these mark- ings is indicated in the:, lines of Rud - yard Kipliug'e "Puck's Song": "See you the marks. -that show and fade Like shadows on ``the downs.? 011, those were ,,,the lines the dint -men made To guard their wondrous towns. "And see you atter the rain the trace Of ditch and mound and wall?. Oh, that was a -legion's' .camping place When Cti eslar sailed from Gaul.." When the photos were sub'm'itted to Mr. Crawford he was soon abbe to identify the mysterious markings on thein as ancient British "lynchets," or - field boundaries, which were formed. during the Raman oeeupaition of Brit_ sin and perhaps' some centuries • be- fore. The ancient Br•iti:sh system of agriculture was entirely different front that obtaining to -day, Which is direct- ly descended, with modifications, from the early Saxon system. The Celtic system, ase revealed by the airplane photos, was a network of small patches, rarely more than two to three acres in size. In. many cases there could "be seen uponthe same sec- tion nearby mounds and hollow!% of tile river valleys., which they cleared, When the Saxon invaders • arrived they destroyed the upland Celtic villages, and when they settled down founded new villages' along tyle line of the fee. the river vallayels, which they cleared, introducl'ng from Germany a system of. strip ealtivation radically different from the older Bri,tisll, system, Ancient Ramparts Shown.

There is scientific proof that two creatures' which have no eyes et all can yet see. These are the ordinary earthworm and a certain beetle which only comes' out at night.

Farigoule states that the skin is an organ of sight, not as efficient as the eyes., but better than nothing. It id not suggested that a man may close his eyes, and suddenly sec through his skin, but it is asserted that a man who 'cannot use his eyes may be trained to use his skin instead,. and by this means distinguish corers and shapes and even read figures and letters.. Scientists are 'learning new things about the human skin every year, so that these wonders may yet come true.

During the imprisonm,enit of Nepo- Leon on the island of St. Helena, the British stationed garrisons on all of the out-of-the-way mocks hi the- South Atlantic Ocean withina' circuit of tun- deeds of miles'.' Among others, one named Tristan da Cunha was chosen as the residence of a rrompany of British soldiers. alpon the death of Napoleon these pt''iloautionary.measu'res were no lon- ger neoewary, andes the barren rock of Tristan does not lie in the pathof vessels bound round the Cape, the gar- rison was taken off. Among the soldiers, however, was one. Glass, who had conceived the idea of settling on thin desolate island atter the manner of Robinson Crusee. Elsoaping to the mountains, he was left behind when his comrades sailed to the Cape. I•Ie remained for three years in soli- tude,' cultivatisig a little garden, and amusing himself by :exploring the mountain featneseles and hunting goats At the end of this period an outward bound India -man, which had got out of her latitude, hove in sight, 'saw his signal, and bore him to the Cape, There he remained long enough to earn. an outfit for the novel life to which he intended to return. He mar - tied, engaged, passages for himself and wife in a schooner bound for St. Hel- ena, and was landed again at Tristan.
