The Tatar's Burglar Device. In Tibet the Tatars have what is possibly the oldest burglar trap in the world. It was Invented to prevent people from robbing the tombs. Whenever a royal personage died in Tibet he was buried with all his Jewels and his royal robes. To add a still higher tribute, the most beautiful young women of his court were suf- focated and embalmed on the day of his funeral. With their beauty thus preserved, they were placed in a stand- ing position round the tomb of their master, each holding some trinket that the royal personage had used during his lifetime, In o rder to protect those treasures from vandals, the Tibetans erected an arch in which rested sharply pointed arrows, and under which was a release that discharged the arrows in quick succession. Whoever trod on the re lease robbed no more. The invention, hidden round the temples and the tombs of the rien Ta- tars, was doubly efficient, for. it both protected property and provided inex- pensive justice. | --e 'Sending For Him. and ha pains.

A similar generous offer from Mr. Chas. Parker, Chairman of the Troop Committee of the 29th Toronto (Humber Bay) Troop, places his fine estate at the disposal of the officers and boys of that Troop for their summer outing. Such co-operation from friends of the Boy Scouts is most valuable 'and very much appreciated. Scouting does not force the boy to be obedient. It takes it for granted that he is--and twelve years of Scout- ing has demonstrated the correctness of this attitude. A leading newspaper offered a prize for the paragraph that had given the greatest inspiration and help. Lines from Tennyson and others were sent in by the hundred. The letter that gained the prize was as follows: "I am only a boy; and boys' opinions are not respected by most grown-ups; but we have them just the's#me. The paragraph which helps me most is the Boy Scout promise, as follows: : " 'On my honor I promise that I will do my best, To do my duty to God and the King, To help other, people at all times, To obey the Scout Law.'
