It is a Veritable Terror to Every European.• • "I stayed two or three days in Che - foo," writes David Fraser in A Mod- ern Campaign, "and during that time I made the acquaintance of a wonderful sound. It came to me first as I was being shaved in a barber's shop. The barber was a Japanese, and when the first wild strains broke upon my ear I sat up with a jerk that put my jugu- lar vein in jeopardy, and asked what it was. He did not know enough English to l. "Whtelatever it wa., it calls fast ap- proaching. It sounded like ten thousand pigs being killed inside a heavy -lidded box that opened and closed at short and regular intervals. The sound was al- ways present, but alternately muffled and clear, like tate lamentation of a steam -operated brass band. "I put my besonped countenance out of the shop door to look. There was noth. ng visible except a patriarchal China- man straining at an enormous wheelbar- row. The noise came out of every door- way and window in the street, from the Leavens above and out of the earth be - ow. The stones spoke it, the walls groaned it, the air screamed it. Only the old Chinaman seemed to have no part n it. He came slowly up the pathway, toiling and tottering 'nchind his ill -bal- anced vehicle. "Then lie came opposite the barber's door, aril the noise struck me in the face ike the blast of a tempest. f drew back with a shudder, knowing at last that he cause was the greaseless wheel of the . barrow.

So wheelbar- rows are of blessed memory in Weihai- 1 wet. for the Chinaman loves them, chief- ly, for that which renders them a terror to the Europeans. But elsewhere in China they flourish to the confusion of euphony and the glorification of dis- cord."

Sea 37,000,000 Years Old. Three hundred and seventy million years is the approximate age of the oceans, according to the calculations of Professor B. D. Salisbury, of the depart- ment of geology of the University of Chicago. "It has been calculated," writes Mr. Salisbury, "that if the salt now in the sea were precipitated it would make something like 3,500,000 cubic miles. Jf 1 to this be added all the other mineral : matter in solution in the sea water the amount would be swollen to about 4,- 1 500,000 cubic miles." J Professor Salisbury estimated !he t quantity of salt and water brought to the sea each year by rivers, and on this ', basis obtains 370,000,000 as the estimated number of years it would take for the amount of salt now in the sea to have been brought to it by the rivers at the present rate. and turns the handsome face to the i light.

The scientists studied the springs first of all, and failing to understand then, turned their attention to the wonderful cavern. The moment they entered the interior they were almost blown off their feet, and although they adopted all man- ner of dodges to find the origin of the wind they had to return to the open sad- der but not wiser men. They next walked into the grove of piste trees, known as the Ineradieablo for- est, and there again they were stumped. They destroyed several of the trees by fire during the night, and next horning they were re -growing strongly out of the very ashes. The fifth wonder of Corea, the'rloat- ing stone, in honor of which a temple bas been built, tried the scientists' pa- tience to a maddening degree.
