Skull Resembling the gigantic skull of «ome prehistoric monster, a great granite rock, the largest free bowlder in the state of New Hampshire, perches on the apex of the highest mountain in Windham. Twenty feet h'th by 40 feet long, it rests on a very small base, an outcropping of a •nica slate ledge, and is almost a "balancing" rock; Viewed at the right it looks something like the face of a gigantic gorilla. At the left, more dimly, thecp can be discerned the face of a dog. On the ledge which supports the bowlder are distinct marks of the great ice sheet which ages ago in the glacial period overspread New England and of whose carrying force this bowlder is an exhibition. For it evidently came from many( miles to the northwest; there are no similar stones anywhere in the region, states a Windham, N. H., correspondent in the Boston Globe. And this one is upside down, as is proven by a basin in its underside as big as a bushel basket and into which you can thrust your head; your voice will sound as if you were speaking into a brass kettle. The sides of t^is cavity are perfectly smooth, showing that they must have been worn by the grinding action of stones and swiftly flowing water, and that the present position of the bowlder is the Reverse of what it once was.

Easier, Easily Records do not show how old the adage, "Easier said than done," may be, but as far back as 1504 occurs the sentence, "This thyng is easyer saide of you, than prouved." Proverbs, like idioms, have a way of confuting the grammarians. Easy, easier, and easiest have been used as adverbs since early times. A number of such usages are to be found in Shakespeare alone; for instance: "Love's Labour's Lost" (act v, sc. 1, 1. 45): "Thou art easier swallowed than a flap-dragon"; "Merchant of Venice"(act i, sc. 2, 1. 17): "I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done"; "Macbeth" (act ii, sc. 4, 1. 38). "Lest our old robes sit easier than our new." Among other adverbial users are: Spenser, Tucker, Byron, Smilel, Steele, Keats, and Mrs. Stowe. Some grammarians now condemn the use of easy as an adverb. One wonders why when our literature is so full of such usages; but despite their dicta, the adage, "Easier said than done," is still correct, and may justly be used as well as, "More easily said than done."--Literary Digest. their mother, Mrs. F 0.

First Atlantic Cable On August 6, 1857, the eastern end of Cyrus W. Field's first Atlantic telegraph cable was pulled ashore at Valentia Bay, Ireland. Great crowds eagerly awaited the event. The moment the cable boats touched the shore, writes an eye witness, "a hundred hands seized the cable, and running up the elevated ground which fronts the bay, landed it about fifty feet from the water mark." Sharply in contrast with this enthusiasm was the public dejection when, on August 11, the cable parted and was lost beyond recovery in 2,000 fathoms of water, after 334 nautical miles had been laid. Field, however, never lost faith in the enterprise and, after overcoming repeated difficulties, he laid, in 1866, a cable which proved per^iaBeBtly successfuL Hr. and Mrs. Walter Fenske of Chi- 4ago spent the Decoration Day week- «fed in the Charles Rietesel home.

Honolulu, Hawaii.--Honolulu has at least one physician who can blend the secrets, of the ancient Hawaiian herbalists with the X-ray and the therapeutics of modern medical science. ^ He is Dr. Alexander K. Kaonohi, a "kahuna," or native medicine man, and the grandson of one of the most famous of the mystery medicine men of Hawaii. His modern scientific training was obtained at Chicago. He has twelve men employed gathering his herbs on the islands of the territory. Twelve to fifteen bags of these are reduced weekly to medicinal solutions. "Our ancestors cured ailments by these means for hundreds of years," Dr. Kaonohi said. "They could heal a fracture in five days. They could treat any ailment known in those days and were especially successful with dropsy and asthma, it woyld surprise you to know how closely some of their methods approach those in use today,. "They used psychiatry or mental suggestion. They also used color therapy, making the color of the medicine harmonize with the disease. They knew the use of iodinecontaining seaweeds and seashore plants. They used earths that contain mineral salts and radium. They gave sweat baths as the an-, cient Romans did and used hypnotism combined with soothing draughts to allay pains of childbirth. "For hundreds of years, too, Hawaiian babies grew up without ever tasting cows' milk." Even with a modern diploma that covers anatomy and physiology. Dr. Kaonohi said he really learned most of those branches by experimenting on animals under the lead of his grandfather, who was trained in the old Hawaiian school. . A tmm tentatively identified as William J. Bucholz. 5143 North Menard avenue, drowned after leaping from a boat from which he was fishing as the craft was about to go over the darft in the Fox river at Algonquin. Witnesses said that the man had tried frantically to keep the boat from the swift current The boat went over the dam without upsetting. Searchers failed to recover the body. Frank Bennerley, 18 years old of Chicago, lost his life in the Fox River near Cary late Monday afternoon while swimming. Together with three other young Chicago friends the victim of this sad tragedy smarted to swim from the bank of the river out to a sand bar. All but Bennerley j made the sand bar. He went down before reaching and drowned before he he could be saved. * The three friends tried in vain to save him, but before they could reach him he had gone down in the river. Ris body was recovered two hours later. The accident took place about 6 o'clock. Bennerley and a group of friends motored to Cary Saturday night to spend the Memorial Day weekend holidays. With the sudden turn of the weather in -favor of swimming the youths took a final dip late Monday before departing for Chicago. It was this final dip. that cost the life of this young man. Coroner E. H. Cook was called and held an inquest at Cary about 8:30 Monday night. The body was taken to Chicago. New "Lung" Tube Prevents Blowouts for Motorists Milano.--No more blowouts for Italian motorists! Ingeniously based on the structure of the human lung, an ini^er tube which is guaranteed to withstand anything from a horseshoe nail to a sewing needle has been perfected by Italian tire makers. The tube consists of two cylinders. The outside one is divided into several Hundred tiny compartments and is connected to the inside air chamber similar to those actually in Qse. When the innermost tube is filled with air the outer chamber is squeezed fiat. In case of a puncture only a few, at most, of the compartments of the "lung" become cut; The other compartments expand and fill the space left empty, thus causing no notable softening of the whQle tire* BINGO PARTY AND DANCE FOR BENEFfr OF ST.

Robinson, which arrived here after colliding with another whaler, the Egeland. They were both chasing the same group of whales and collided just after the freak catch. Both vessels were damaged slightly. "It isn't often that three whales are killed by one harpoon," Capt. Wilhelm Dahlberg, of the C. P. Robinson, said. "Sometimes when we get into a school of small whales a harpoon goes through more than one. This was a school of small sperms." The harpoon went through the three whales, exploding beyond them and leaving them strung on the line. Two of them were nearly dead and died when the crew started blowing them up with air to keep them afloat. The third had to be killed with another harpoon.
