Where the Guns Kick Hard. Duck shooting at an altitude of 14,- 000 feet. on the Junin pampa. along the shore of the lake of that name. is a sport that can be followed in Peru, Very peculiar effects are noted in this rarefied region, probably the high‘eSt altitude for this sport in the world. The guns kick viciously and the shot does not scatter promptly. making long shots successful.- This phenome- non is due to the lack of density of the air, which is only about eight pounds to the square inch against fifteen at sea level. Another interesting fact is that the ducks have no fishy taste, as fish do not exist in this altitude. etiquette." “Vertical etiquette!

A French minister tells of an incl- dent during a voyage to India: “One dark evening I sat in my cabin feel- ing thoroughly unwell, as the sea was rising fast and I was but a poor sailor. Suddenly the cry of ‘Man overboard? made me spring to my feet. I heard “Making the Best of Things." There are several injudicious ways of making the best of things. One of them is illustrated by the humble young curate. pictured long ago in Punch, who protested when the bish- op, his host. expressed doubts of an egg the curate was eating. “Oh. no, my lord; I assure you some parts of it are excellent.” Fancy looking on the bright side of a bad egg! The effort was surely less ingratiating than the curate supposed. Indeed, this habit of seeing good in everything may become the most unendurable of virtuesâ€"as distressing as grim patience, which is a common and effective method of wearing out the mind. I like to re- member the complacent old lady who said when a friend reminded her that she had had little trouble in life. “Yes, but I’ve made the most of what I have had.” She chose more wisely than the people who come exhausted out of their victories over circumstance.

Granite Telegraph Poles. file great abundance of granite rocks and the lack of timber in the southern part of Switzerland have led to the employment of the former for purposes usually filled by the latter. Thus in many sections or the southern country the fences are of granite in- stead ot wood. the supports for the grapevines are granite posts. and pavements, etc., are of granite. Per- haps the most striking departure from the ordinary. however. is the use of. granite pillars in place of the usual wooden telegraph. telephone and elec- tric power transmission poles.
