Once Populous Citiet Reclaimed by Jungle The old question whether a thing can be lost when you know where It is applies In part to lost cities, be cause the sites of many of them are known and In some cases even the buildings and statuary are almost In tact. Now, however, their only Inhabit ants are the beasts of the jungle, Hons prowl through their echoing halls, monkeys race across their fretted arches and snakes lurk In their dark dungeons or glide across their crum bling pnvements. For instance, the holy city of the Buddhists Baraboedoer, In Java had been forgotten for 600 years when Sir Stamford Itaflles rediscovered it and its wonderful temple, the eighth wonder of the world, says a writer In London Answers. The jungle of Slam has hidden Its ancient capital, Ayuthla, for four cen turies. Its Inhabitants fled before the conquering Burmese, and never re turned. It Is now said to be the lurk ing place of thousands of enormous snakes. Mystery surrounds the dead city of Tibet, which Captain Rawllng discov ered. It is a vast collection of pal aces, monasteries and dwelling houses, but 'Set Tibetans professed Ignorance of fts existence and also of the rea son of Its abandonment Jflve centuries ago Angkor had a population of three-quarters of a mil lion. Today It Is the dead city of Cambodia. The carved stone ele phants, the Immense causeways, the majestic temples, still remain, but the Jungle has Invaded the streets and squares. Young Ducklings Early at Home in the Water The woodduck, unlike most other ducks, usually builds his nest far from his natural element, water, writes Ellis Gllniore MacLeod In St Nicholas. But no sooner are the eggs hatched and the ducklings about the size of bumble bees, than each parent bird takes a little one In Its bill, wriggles through the opening In the chestnut tree or white oak which harbors the nest and, with a quick glance lest some enemy may lurk near, flies swiftly overland to creek or water hole. Here the two tiny burdens are dropped gently into the water. Without previous swimming lessons, theso newly hutched mites dart over the surface of the water for the cover of marsh grass or lily pad where they hide until the return of their parents with more of their brothers and sis ters. The flight of the old ducks continues back and forth from the home nest to the water until the family of from 12 to 18 are assembled, when, at a soft call-note from the parents, every little paddler darts from cover and starts chasing wnter spiders, as if that were an old game. His Way Out of Dilemma The commanding officer looked down the charge sheet to see what type of case he had to deal with that morning. Suddenly he started. "Mutiny!" lie muttered. "Private King charged with mutiny I" Then aloud: "Where is the corporal who made this arrest f "Here, sir," answered a corporal, stepping forward. "Do you charge Private King with mutiny V was the stern Inquiry. "I do, sir," was the reply. "On what grounds?" The corporal hesitated for a mo ment Then : "Well, sir," he said, confidentially, "It was really Insubordination, but I didn't know bow to spell that, so I put 'mutiny."' Heat Kill Germ Radiant (or visible) heat was em phasized by Prof. Leonard Hill at a recent meeting of tbe London Zoologi cal society as "most useful In helping caged animals to tight against infec tion" from tuborculosis. Hot-water pipes, lie pointed out, though an eco nomical way of raising temperature In the animal houses, do not provide all the benefits of radiant heat such as we know best In the form of gunllght and, in another form, In the domestic coal fire. In fact, central beating excel lent In Its place Is not healthy heat ing, as the prevalence of tuberculosis in steam-heating countries such as Sweden, Russia and the United States goes far to prova Pasted Over Bonanza Although any '49er who made good in the gold rush to California in 1849 had no bone to pick with his fate, it Is a comment that many of them and their brothers who were not so succesnful walked right ovr a rich bonansa In tbe southern part of Ilex Ico, along tbe Isthmus of Panama, over which many of them trekked. Along tbe river of tbe Winding Snake many 40ers walked on their way to tt Pacific coast, little knowing that later prospectors would find a rich field of oil beneath their feet Honor in installments The officials of a certain church were anxious to obtain a "D. D." fo their pastor, and a letter was sent to a cer tain "diploma mm" asking for terms. As the price mentioned for the honor was twice us great as the church was prepared to pay, another letter was .forwarded to the authorities stating that they would purchase one "D" now and the other when they had sufficient funds for Hie purpose.
