laxury and used by them for a
variety of purposes.
In India it Is said that it was em-
ployed by kings for scepters and also
for Images. On account of its sup-
posed antagonism to polsouns it was
used largely for drinking cups.
The name ebony is given to the wood
of several varieties of trees. All kinds
of ebony are distinguished for their
great density and dark color. The
wood In all varieties Is heavier than
water. The heaviest varieties are the
darkest, . The other grades require a
considerable amount of staining to
make them black.
Ebony Is of a uniform color through-
out and wi'l not show any deteriora-
tion even from long continued use,
There are three varieties of ebony
well known In commerce, The ebony
from the Gaboon coast of Africa is the

The Life Saving Service.
The first stations of a life saving
service in this country were establish-
ed by the Massachusetts Humane soci-
ety at Lovell Island and Cohasset. All
efforts for saving life and property in
cases of shipwreck were made by this
society till 1837, when the president of
the United States was authorized to
employ ships to cruise along the shores
and render assistance to distressed
navigators. In 1848 congress passed a
law creating a few life saving stations
between Bandy Hook and Little Egg
harbor, New Jersey. From this bas
grown the splendid system which now
takes In all the coasts of the country.
