The smaller number of pupils In London means pnrtly thnt more of the children of the moderately well to do there attend private schools, partly that the children of the London poor leave school for work at an earlier average axe.

' Since Yucatan, where the Mayna built their strange cities. Is a coral lime- itone formation, it would, snys a writ er In Records of the Past, have been a barren desert but for Its subterra nean rivers, and the cenotes. or water caverns, which give access to them. The Mayas noted the courses of tht underground streams and bitlt their townB round the cenotes. Many ce Dotes are now found surrounded by ruins, and give Indications of the methods employed by the Mayas to reach their cool waters In Uxmal a cenote about 40 feet deep Is inhabited by a peculiar species of fNh. At Bo- nnchen there Is a cenote having ova openings In the rocks at the bottom f the envern. Ladc-rs made by ty 'ng tree trunks together lead down a otal d'.strnce of 1.400 feet, but the perpendicular depth from the sur- .ace to the water Is not over 500 feet Big Oame and Disease. It has been suggested that the big game of Africa should be systematical ly exterminated in order to abolish the "fly fever" by destroying the prin- tpal means of nourishment of the tsetse. In regard to this suggestion Sir David Bruce says that while It It true that the tsetse disappears when .he b'g game Is killed off. tbere are other African diseases similar to the 1y disease which are not spread by .he tsetse. Although "civilization ind big game cannot exist together," he thinks that the proposed wholesale destruction all over Africa would be quite unjustifiable. As the new coun try Is divided off Into farms, the big game must go, but the process should be a gradual one, applied only as the exigencies demand. For at least a thousand years to come there ought to be room In Africa for big game re Illuminating Shells. Experiments have recently been made at Toulon with shells Intended to Illuminate the sen at s distance from the land, thus disclosing tht presence and movements of an enemy at night The shells are made to ex plode at a great height, and to give light for a sufficient time to permit an examination of the surface of ttu sea for several miles from the shore. The officers In charge of the experi ments regard the Illuminating shell? . ..M.u.Iua Iha. u.aFih.Mirhri In d"sciinrt Position of hostile ship. ADomer iorm 01 buii uh wvh proposed, which shall. In burailDg over the sea, spread a cloud of thick smoke about the batteries on sbore. thus preventing their seeing the ap proaching ships, and rendering the Illuminating shells useless. Fossils as Sign-Posts. The recent discovery In the south ern part of Madagascar 01 reptilian fossils, which geologists affirm belong to the Permian epoofe. leads M the ex pectation that coal wtll b found here. In India, Australia sad southern Africa the strata containing the re gains of these animals are character ized by the presence of coal beds. The ikellhood that the same condition of affairs will be found In. Madagascar Is -rgarded as being much strengthened by the association of one of the fos sils recently discovered with a leaf jf glossopterls, one of the plants most distinctive of the Permian coal tortus tlons In the southern hemisphere. A South Arabian Feed Plant. Jowart, s tall slender plant re sembling corn and headed with a grain something like millet. Is the Abdall's chief crop. He feeds the atulk o his camels and eats the grain hlin- TOlf. Three crops s year are pro iuced. Jowart requires little cultlva Oon except weeding, which the Ab dall does by band, sod when ripe he ruts It off close to the ground with its hunting knife. New shoots spring jp from the roots to become the nei rop. For a camel load of about 125 pounds he receives at Aden an aver lge of two rupees, or fot.68. A fall early yield Is twenty camel loads an tcre. The Grand Canyon. It Is of course, possible that the Grand Canyon of the Colorado may have been a "crack" In the earth caused by earthquake action, but in the books on geology we are given to understand that It Is the result of the wealing down of the strata by the ac tion of the waters of the river. It Is im possible to get St anything tike a definite conclusion as to the age of the Grand Canyon. The figures of the geologists differ, but all agree that the mighty gorge haa been many tens of thousands of years In the making. Valuable Man.
