Something About These Marvelous
GOliftinge of the Sea Bosom.
What - of the tidal wave, that .mysteri
ous, indispensable swelling of the waters
that, following the "pull" ofthe moon,
'rolls . round this globe of ours twice in
each' 24 'hours, stemming the . outflow of
mightyrivers, penetrating far. inland
wherever access ;is available and doing
within its -short lease of life an amount
of beneficent work freely that would beg-
gar the wealthiest monarchy of the: world
to undertake if it must needs be paid
for? Mysterious it may well be called,. -
since, though its passage from zone to
zone be so swift, it is like,all other waves, -
but an undttlatory movement of that por-
tion of the sea momentarily influenced by
the suasion of the planet—not, as is v1l-
g1rly supposed, the same mass o2 water -
vehemently carried onward for thousands
of miles.
To meet a: tidalwaveat sea is in some•
parte of the world a grim and anforgeta-
ble experience. Floating upon - the shin-
ing blue plain, with an indolent swelling
of the surface, just giving•a cozy roll to
your ship now and then, you suddenly
see in the distance teridge, a•knoll of wa-
ter that advances,' vast, silent, menacing.
Nearer and nearer it comes, rearing its
apparently endless curvehigher laid high-

bulk, she is hurled forward, upward,
backward, downward, as ifnever again
could` she regain an even keel,•'while her
crew cling desperately to whatever hold-
ing place they may have reached.
Some will have itthat these marvelous
upliftings of the sea bosom are not tidal
waves .at all—that they do not, belong to
the normal ebb and flow of the ocean
that owns the sway of the moon; if so,
they would be met with more frequently
than they -are -at -sea, and far more disas-
ters would be placed to their., account, -
This contention seems - reasonable, be-
cause it is well known that lonely islets,
such as St, Helena, Tristan d'Acunha.
and nsccncion are visited at irregular in-
tervals by a' succession of appalling
naves (rollers) that deal havoc, Among
the smaller shipping and look as if they
would overwhelm the land. The sugges-
tion is that these stupendous waves are
dueto cosmic disturbance, to submarine
earthquakes upbeaving the ocean bed

So rapid was the increase of coaches
that in 1001 an act of parliament • was

Luck In Finding Mires.
• Something like 250 years ago, an In-
dian, while climbiug up the -steep slope of
a hill in pursuit of an antelope, seized a
bush to help himself up. The plant gave
way, and the Indian fell backward, but
by a desperate effort saved himself and,
falling forward; cut the end of 'his nose
on the sharp point ot a projecting rock.
The ,I.naijul -looked ruefully at the point

and, to his surprise, saw that it was
'almost pure silver. This Is how the fa-'
mous silver mines of Zacatecas, Mexico,
are paid to have been discovered.
Another rich Mexican mine owes its
discovery to a rabbit. An Indian and his
dog chatted a •rabbit Into his hole. The
Indian wanted th rabbit so badly -that
he got a spade an began to dig the little
