Origin of Playing Cards.
Although It is commonly reported
that playing cards were invented in
France in 1392 to divert Charles VI,
D'AUemagne, a French writer on th?
subject, mentions them as being in
use in Belgium in 1379, and probably
somethltfg analagous to them ? mark
ed disks or counters ? have been em
ployed in the east from remote an
tiquity. It is now usually thought
that it was in Italy playing cards were
first made, about 1370, and at Venice.
The attempt to connect their inven
tion with astrology ariseR from the
four suits, and 52 cards in all, being
associataed in ingenious minds with
four seasons and the number of weeks
in the year It does not appear likely
that there was anything more asso
ciated with the cards than amuse
ment at the first, though gambling
was a vice with the Greeks and Rom
ans long before the Christian era, and
games for gain with some kindB oi
counters were doubtless found among
them. ..
- , Low Spots.
It has been left to the United States
geologists to localize the most de
pressed and depressing places 'bn the
earth. Every continent dips some
where beneath the level of the sea. In
the states itself the lowest depth is
the aptly named Death Valley of Cal
ifornia, about 300 feet below sea level.
The old world, however, strikes a low
er depth ? 1,200 .feet ? Jn the region of
the Dead Sea. We now learn that the
flooding of the Sahara, a dream of
sanguine engineers, is impossible, for
the general height is above sea level.
Europe holds her head high, except on
the Caspian shores, where she droops
eighty-six feet. Australia, one is glad
to hear, keeps her chin well above war
ter.
Inhospitable Tundras.
Tundras are swampy tracts of land,
covered partly with a thick layer of
bog moss, partly with a dry, snow
white covering of reindeer moss and
varieties of lichens, bordering the
Arctic ocean in Siberia and stretch
west from the Ural mountains along
the north of Europe. It is only the
reindeer that renders this waste habit
able for the wandering hordes of
Samoyeds who hunt the furred ani
mals, as well as the swans and wild
geese, which, in summer, flock there
in great numbers. These polar steppes,
however, can be trodden only in win
ter, when the whole region is one
