Plants, animals and birds of the Bl- ble have been made the subject of a special exhibition in the natural his- tory department of the British mu- seum. Among the striking bits of in. formation contained in this work are the following: The common fowl is not mentioned in the Old Testament and was probably introduced into Palestine after the Roman conquest. The uni. corn of the Old Testament was proba- bly the Syrian aurochs. now extinct. That the behemoth was not the hippo. potamus is believed probable because of the fact that there is no record of the latter animal in Syria or Palestine in historical times. The tares ol’ the Bible were darnel grasses whose seeds are poisonous. the rose was probably the narcissus. while the lily was the poppy anemone. Stale Styles For China. Men who have wondered what be comes of the large stocks of hats. caps and clothing that remain unsold at the close of each season in this country will be interested to learn that a con- siderable portion of such stock is dis- posed of in China. where the men are adopting the dress of their western brothers. The rising generation of Chinese is particularly keen for head- gear worn in America. but the styles seen there are always those that were in vogue in this country the year be- fore. Much of the men’s apparel that fails to find a market in this country finds its way to the far east. In a walk through the streets of any Chinese city one sees derbies. fedoras and caps that bear American labels. Most of the caps are of British make because many 1 of the tourists come from London, and in selecting a cap the native has no: guide except the headgear he sees on i foreignersâ€"New York Herald. ' Thrilling Balloon Experience. Probably no aeronants have ever survivedto tell such a thrilling story of their experiences as Messrs. Glal~ sher and Coxwell when. in 1862. they made their record ascent of seven miles. When the balloon had reached a height of 29.000 feet Mr. Glaisher records. “1 dimly saw Mr. Coxwell in the ring and endeavored to speak. but could not. when in an instant intense black darkness came. and 1 suddenly became unconscious." Mr. Coxwell himself was on the point of succumb- ing to the intense cold. The boar frost was all around the neck of the balloon. his hands were frozen and powerless. and as the balloon was still rising swiftly death seemed inevitable to both aeronauts. Mr. Coxwell des- paired of opening the valve to, release the gas. insensibility was rapidly coming over him. and it was only “at the last gasp" that by a happy inspira- tion be seized the cord with his teeth and “dipped his head two or three, times until the balloon took a decided ' turn downward." there are not many people who can recognize more than half a dozen can at the outside. Well. the most popu- lar color is red. which is found in the standards of no fewer than nineteen countries out of twenty-five. Practical- ly every one of the European states. together with Mexico. Venezuela. Chile and Cuba. boasts the color red in their national flags. .Blue is found in the emblems of the United States. Russia. France. Great Britain. Holland. Ecua. dor. Sweden. Chile. Portugal. Vene- zuela and Cuba'.‘ Black is not at all popular, being found only in the cases of Germany. Belgium and China. while Germany is noticeable for having black and white together. Nine countries boast of a flag partly yellowâ€"viz. Aus- tria. Spain. Belgium. Brazil. Persia. Sweden. Egypt. China and Venezuela. To Ecuador belongs the distinction of having a standard nearer white than any other country.â€"l\'ew York Post: Pct Colon For ”up.

The vicar or an east end parish is telling a queer little story that illus- trates the relations between husband and wife in that quarter of London. He was returning home late one night when he overtook a man who was via lently abusing and ill using a woman. The poor woman was coming ofl very badly and she had already got a dam- aged eye when the clergyman went up and remonstrated with the man on his behavior. For a moment the blows and abuse were stayed. the man being ed a severe shaking. but otherwise came through the ordeal safely.” “A young man. while riding through the timber country at Willung during a recent storm. had a remarkable es- cape trom death in peculiar circum- stances. A large tree directly in front of him was struck by lightning and split in halves. The horse he was rid- ing. becoming terrified. started to plunge and jumped through the gap between the halves of the tree. At that moment the halves came together with a snap like a rabbit trap and crushed of! a length of the horse’s tail. which can still be seen protruding from the tree.

One ol’tbe most remarkable stories of sudden cold weather is to be found in a famous biography of Abraham Lincoln. The year 1836, was long known as ”the year or the sudden change."
