Plenty of their teeth have been found which are tive inches long. whereas the biggest of the teeth belonging to sharks that exist at the present day are one and a half inches long.

A Merited Rebuke. At the age of eighty-si: Mie. Reyn olds still found inucha zest ln life. and. davina retained all her faculties. she felt that a few of the physical dis abilities of her age were of small ::e count and portended nothing. Ier nephew Thomas was a man of much worth, but of a certain tactlessness of speech. which always roused the ire of his aunt. A few weeks before the old lady's eighty-seventh birthday Thomas. who I had been overweighted with business cares for years. started on a trip round the world which was to consume two years. "I've come to say goodby." he an nounced when he appeared at his aunt's house in a town 6fty miles dis tant from his home. -I'm starting round the world next week. and as I'm to be gone two years and perhaps longer I thought I might not ever well, you understand. I wanted to be sure to see you once more." The old lady leaned forward. fixing him with her beadlike eyes. "Thomas," she said imperatively. "do you mean to tell me the doctor doesn't think you'll live to get back?" -Youth's Companion. Perpetual Motion. Little Jimmy had arrived at the questioning age. He had just made an inquiry concerning perpetual motion of his father. "No." said his father: "nobody has ever discovered perpe:nal motion yet. But Jimmy was not quire satis6ed. "What is perpetual motion like. dad' be nsked next. His father thought a moment. "Why. it's pretty hard to say. Jimmy.- he re plied. -but it's somiethingt that keeps going and going forever. Here 's an illustration. I once saw a woman in a train who had put on her gloves. She then tried to button her right hand glove. but she found that she must take off her left hand glove to do so She took it off and buttoned the right hand glove. Then she saw that in or der to button her left hand glove she must take off her right hand glove. which she did. Then she put on her left hand glove, buttoned it and put on the right band one again. But she couldn't button her right hand glove with her left hand giove on. so she I took off- That. .Jimmy." he said after a pause for breath. -is what perpetual motion would be like if you could get A Remarkable Dinner Service.

Dr. Watson (Ian \Maclarens used to tel a story about his trip to the Holy and. to which he had been looking forward for a number of years with pleasrable anticipation. IAs he was nearing the center of his toic Palestine he met an American who was making all haste to get away. After such greetings as two English speaking men meeting in a foreign country might exchange the Ameri-. can asked Dr. Wats"'i where he was goog. "To Jerusalem." was the reply. "Jerusalem!" exclaimed the Ameri can in tones of unfeigned disgust. "You don't want to go there. I've just come away. It's a slow town. Why. there isn't a single daily newspaper in the whole place!" IThe Flag at Half Mast. The custom of showing the flag at half mast originated from the way at sea of showing the pre-eminence one ship had over the other in time of war fare. The vanquished always had to lower its flag. while the victor's would e raised as high as possible in exul tation. To lower a flag is an act of submission or bewkens respect to a su peior or Is a signal of distress. The noisting of a flag half mast high came to be used, therefore, as a sign of mourning and respect. Not Enough to Go Around.

Salle was In the eighteenth century the most accomplished and fascinating l'alleteuse atythe famous French Opera. In addition to her oth er qualifications. she played and sang with extraordinary artistic skill and depth of expression. She once con fdded to Ramneau. the noter musician. that her ardent wish mas to be able to compose and asked him to give her a few lessons in the art. "Nothing eas ier In the world.- Rameau gallantly replied. He handed her a sheet of pa per ruled for music and asked her to take her valuable breastpln and prick holes in the lines wherever she thought proper. After the lady had completed her task Ramenu took the sheet of pa per. turned each puncture into a note. determined its length. selected a suita ble key. and the thing was done. This remarkable composition turned out a lively piece of dance music, which was afterward entitled "Leas Sauvages Dans les Indes Galantes" and was popular in France for a great number of years. Macaulay as a Child. Thomas Babington Macaulay should perhaps have ranked with the auni ersal geniuses. but it is true that his precocious gift was largely in the di rection of Urerature. He read Inces santly from the age of three. At seven he had composed a very fair com pendium of universal.hIstory from the creation to ISOO. At eight he had written a treatise destined to convert the natives of Malabar to Christianity. As a recreation from this weighty work he wrote in the same year a ro mnance in the style of Scott In three cantos, entitled -The Battle of Cher lot" A little later came a long poem on the history of Olaf Magnus and a vast pile of blank verse entitled "Fln gal-A Poem In Twelve Books." But he disliked mathematics and did not pass his examinations in that subject, thus standing out among all child prof51es. His memory was such that e literally never could forget any thing and after twenty years could epeat blcs of poetry read only once. Her One Wish.
