For instance the suDDOsed mummies right hand of the Pha roah's daughter who rescued Moses from the bulrushes has recently been willed to an Illinois college. Now comes word from the Oriental Institute at the University of Chica go that the name of this particular daughter of the Pharoahs is unknown to history. The Egyptians did not consider her act imporant enough to record," says Dr. T. George Allen, secreary of the institute, "and the Hebrew records are not sufficient to identify her. There is 'no unanimity even as to which Pharoah was the Pharoah of the oppression."

The United States Fisheries Bu reau is catching codfish and releas ing them with numbered alumnium tags attacned to their tails, tne od ject in view being to gain some defi nite knowledge about their migra tions and the rate at which they grow. When a tagged codfish is caught again anywhere tne fisher man will be expected to send the tag to Washington or to one of the bu reau's stations with a memorandum stating the locality, etc. Then the number can be looked up and it will be known how fafr and in what di rection the fish has meanwhile tra veled. Also how much it has gained iri size and weight during the inter val. The North Atlantic Ocean is after all only a large pond. In places there are shallows called "banks" as, for instance, off the coast of New foundland where, because the water it not very deep, the bottom is rich in molluscan, crustacean and other forms of marine life. Fishes flock to these banks to feed and there the fishermen gather great harvests. Hut the fishing may be overdone. On this account the halibut nave almost disappeared from certain banks and fears are entertained for the mainte nance of the codfish supply. Hence it is that during the last few years the Fisheries Bureau has been hatching codfish eggs by the hundreds of mil lions and planting the young "fry." How much good this has done no body knows. But it is manifest that in trying to help the preservation of any species of fish every bit of in formation that can be gained regard ing its life history is of value. Whence the usefulness of tagging the codfish. United States forty times from east to west and also sixty times irom north to south. The number of boats in China ex ceeds the number of boats in all the rest of the world. The labor cost of constructing the Great Wall on the north of Chi na proper equals that of building all the United States canals and rail roads, according to General U. S. Grant.

The great cause of the famine east of Pekin and north of the delta of the Yellow River is a westerly gale that may blow night and day for four whole months without ceas ing. The ffertility of China is due to the loess constituting the soil of the Great Plain for Pekin down to the Yang-tse Kiang basin. This loess is a yellow oil. Loess has self-suffi ciency of fertility beyond any other known soil. The loess can be powdered in the hands, but is firm enough for entire communities to carve out apart ments in which they live comfort ably. Cliffs of loess occur. A single mile of loess soil in Shan tung province will support 3.072 peo ple, 276 donkeys, 256 cattle and 512 pigs an average of twelve indivi duals, one donkey, the cow and two pigs all on a single farm of two and a half acres. i who ordained that "a robber who shall be convicted of theft shall have his head cropped and boiling pitch shall be poured thereon, and the feathers of a pillow shall be shaken, out on him, so that he may be known, and at the first land at which the ship shall touch he shall be set on shore."

Two brothers operate the farm and it is said they are making a success of it. GALVANIZED ROOFING AND shingles is my specialty. SAMUEL DAVIS. Mutual Assistance, A customer entered the small town barber shop. "How soon can you cut my hair?" he asked of the proprietor, who was seated in an easy chair, perusing the pages of a novel.
