1 Ice in the Arctic Regions, j.
The unlucky prisoner in the field of
ice during the imposing, unbroken lone
liness of the long Arctic night, when the
wind is calm, can hear the crackle of the
snow under" the stealthy tread j of the
polar bear at an astonishing distance,
and hear what a man, speaking loud,
says at 1,000 meters distance! It can;
therefore, be well understood how ithe
sound of the ice pressures must travel
to his ear from enormous! distances.
" Sometimes," the author writes," the
noise of the ice movements was scarcely
to be heard a mere murmur and came
to our ears as does the play of the wave's
on a steep coast from the far distance.
Sometimes it hummed and roare closer
to us, as if a whole column of heavily
laden wagons were being drawn oyer the
uneven ice surface. In the sound were
combined all manner of noises caused
. by cracking, grinding, falling of blocks,
crushing, and many other phenomena
of ice life
and how clearly every noise is conducted
on the ice The noise a the very mar
gin of the field on which we were deemed
to occur immediately at pur feet. If
we placed our ear to the lice the sound
was heard so loudly that we might have
expected the ice to open under our feet
the next moment. The whole (Iry ice
covering was as a vast sounding' board.

A Chinese Vegetable.
Some experiments recently carried on
ly two or three Austrian and German
horticulturistsjhave brought into notice
an almost forgotten plant which was in
troduced into Europe from China nearly
thirty years ago, but whose existence
and whose products have been unde
servedly lost sight of. This is the soja
hispida, a species of leguminous plant,
somewhat resembling in habit and ap
pearance the well-known pea. Unlike
the latter, however, it has two dis
tinct uses industrial as well as ali
mentary. It is highly prized in China
and Japan, and is, said, indeed, to take
its scientific title from the Japanese
name of a sauce sooja which is made
from its seeds. The seeds are very
similar to a " marrow-fat " pea, but con
tain a large quantity of oil, which is
either pressed out of them or boiled out
in process of cooking the seeds for the
table, which is effected by simply
throwing them into hot water, when the
outer skin bursts and floats to the sur
face, together with a quantity of oil,
both the oil and the husk being skimmed
off together. These may be either used
as cattle food, or the oil maybe sepa
rated and employed for various pur
poses, while thehusks are still valuable
as a feeding stuff or as a manure. The
peas are boiled for about twenty min
utes, and furnish a dish which is highly
relished, not onlyby the Celestials, but
by the Europeans who have tasted it.
It is said to resemble in flavor the green
pea, .but lacks its sweet taste. The
boiled soja is also prepared as a cake
and as a sauce, being fermeuted for tb$
latter purpose, and salt, pepper, etc.,
being added. The sauce has a high repu
tation among the Chinese and Japanese,
not merely as a condiment, but as a
medicinal age-nt. Chemical analysis of
the seeds shows them to be very rich in
proteine. The oil is available for many
uses for burning in lamps or even as
a substitute for olivef oil. Being some
what of a siccative nature, it is not
adapted for a lubricant, but it is fnr
tnat reason useful as a substitute fnr
linseed oil in the manufacture of naints
and in other 'similar industrial arts.

Lawyers' Bonanzas.
The casual mention of a lawyer and a
will reminds me of a scene in the surro

ciety woman who died a year agoleitving
a large estate, was up for contest, and
When it was called not less thankwenty
lawyers rushed forward to rtespond.
They all represented clients interested
in the will, and each wanted ps par
ticular interest to get a fair show- Tbe
surrogate seemed rather scared for a
moment by the charge of the law bri
gade, but soon nerved himself to meet
it and then told the lawyers tjiat the
case would have to stand over six
months; so they gathered up their
papers and went off in search Of other
game. Will contests and railroad cases
now are the bonanzas of the jjar. A
good will fight will put a lawyer on his
feet for life, Aside from the Woney it
puts in his pocket, especially if he comes
out a winner, it gives him an advertise
ment that maybe worth grejat deal
more. The lawyer who gets hold of a
really important case of this kind is
generally congratulated by kll his
friends and given to understand, though
generally in a jesting way, that a good
"spread "will be expected by-jwd-bye.
