An Inspiration.
Lionel was at a matinee with his fa
ther, and when a trapeze acrobat fail
led to catch the object at which he flew
through the air and fell sprawling into
the net the boy was greatly excited.
"They are never hurt," explained his
Ifether. "It is a regular trick to make
such a miss once or twice to give the
fetidlence an idea of the difficulty of
the feat and thereby intensify the ap
plause when it has been successfully
performed."
Lionel thought a moment and then,
.With a bright smile, said:
"Papa, do you think I could make a
hit with my teacher by following this
Circus stunt and missing my lessons
once in awhile?"— Puck.
His Secret Died With Him.
One man gave up his life in the
Search for a new explosive a few years
ago. He was a scientist named War
tenberger. He had spent years of his
life in the midst of awful perils in
search of a new explosive. He found
one at last which the experiments of
the United States government experts
satisfied them was even more power
ful than dynamite. The government
offered Wartenberger $1,000,000 for his
Invention, provided he could perfect a
method of firing the fearful stuff by
means of electricity instead of a fuse.
[While he was engaged in these experi
ments an explosion occurred which
killed the unfortunate inventor.—San
Francisco Chronicle.
Rain Hats In Korea.
Korea is a country of strange head
dresses, but perhaps the most curious
headgear of all are the immense rain
hats worn by the farmers' wives while
working in the fields during the rainy
season. These extraordinary coverings
are often as much as seven feet long
and five feet broad and protect the
body as effectively as any umbrella
could do.
Bedouins and Water.
It is not unusual to hear a Bedouin
upon reaching a camp where water is
offered him refuse it with the remark.
"I drank only yesterday." On the
Bedouins' long marches across dry
countries the size of the water skins
Is nicely calculated to just outlast the
journey, and they rarely allow them
selves to break the habit of abstemi
ousness, as this would be sure to make
their next water fast all the harder.
They are accustomed from infahcy to
regard water as precious and use it
with religious economy.

Wounds of the Heart.
In wounds of the heart itself the es
cape of blood is never In large quanti
ty, and the lethal consequences are
due to the fact that the escape of blood
from within its cavity of cavities into
the surrounding sac of the pericardium
mechanically interrupts the alternate
contraction and expansion by which
Its pumping action is maintained. Ac
cordingly the results of the wound of
the heart are usually identical with
those of gradual suffocation- Ex

Rescuing Napoleon by Submarine.
In his book on submarines Frederick
A. Talbot tells us that the submarine
Is "practically as old as the sailing
ship," though he passes the fact over
with the statement that the majority
of these efforts were fantastic in con
ception and crude in design.
The most daring expedition ever sug
gested In the early days of the subma
rine was that proposed for kidnaping
Napoleon from St Helena. It was
suggested to a British mariner, Cap
tain Johnson, who was to get £40,000.
The construction of the boat was be
gun, but on the day when the work on
the outer shell of copper was to be
started NaDolr *
