The human pulse has rather a wide range. but the general average may be put alout as follows: At birth. 140; at two years. 100; at from sixteen ts nineteen years. 80; at manhood. 75; old age. 60. There are. however. great variations consistent with health. Na- poleon's pulse is said to have been only forty-four in the minute. A case is also related of a healthy man of eight,- seven whose pulse was seldom over thirty during the last two years of his life and sometimes not more than twentyeight Another man of eighty- seven years of age enjoyed good health and spirits with a pulse of twenty- nine. and there is also on record tho curious instance of a man who-a pub. ,1 In suns -â€"-- â€"~ Where the rivers freeze to the bot- tom and small trees snap off from the biting force of the cold stands the coldest inhabited cit in the worldâ€" Verkoyansek, in nort eastern Siberia. It is a place of some size, stands 150 feet above the sea level and in winter boasts of a temperature 85 degree: below zero. Its annual temperm is 3 degrees above zero. Whenever a polar expedition is in progress we hear of ice floes, pack ice, sailing ice and other such things. An “ice field" is an area of frozen snow or water so large that the limits are invisible and unknown. On the other hand, a “fine” is a mass of ice, perhaps very large. but whose boun- daries are seen by the explorer. When such floes become broken and the pieces are wedged together by the wind and the currents they form “pack ice,” the terror of the Arctic voyager. When a ship gets caught in a mass of pack ice there it re- mains fast until contrary winds or currents break up the pack. and then we have “sailing ice.” cvcwunv as the put.

France. that quaint city of jostling roofs. there is still segregated. much as if in 3 Ghetto. a Saracen popula- tion. probably a remnant of the wave of Saracens that swept over Europe hundreds of years ago. Here they live in their crooked, narrow streets, following old customs handed down from generation to generation. There are many butcher shops in the quar- ter and outside of each teems a great pot of soup over a glowing brazier. In each pot stands a ladle as ancient Lyons was reunited to France in 1413. while one century later the French were defeated by the Swiss in Novara and thus driven from Italy. The Romanoffs, the rulinr.r house in Russia. came to the throne in 1613, while in 1713 thn peace of Utrecht was signed. England has occuxiied Gibral. tar since that date. Finally, 1813 was the year of Napoleon’s great victoriel in Prussia and his more glorious de- feats. Thirteen In History. \Vith the. commeneement of 1913 old grophecies regarding this year are eing revived, notably the one re- garding the end of the German em- pige. The Lao is of comparatively tall stature, with close-cropped hair. and is very disrnified in gait; his nature Is very sweet and the invariable end >of his vxry mre quarrels is an ex- plosion of laughter. He is mainly a farmer and when field 3k is. done the principal oeenpation of the young men is to court the girls. Stages are erected on whieh every evening there seat themselves- all the marriageable Eirls. wrapped in scarves of brilliant color. In front of them burn lamps of _eoeoanut oil. in the manner of footlights \ trav full of quids of betel for chewing and a spittoon made of a length of hamhoo pass from hand to hand. The boys squat in front of the girls and make compli- mentarv verses, while the girls an- swer with spirit. malice and point. It is a regular “‘«ourt of Love” like thosi: of mediaeval Europe. Found In a Quaint French Curious léew Year Festival Am the Lao Tribes cl Burmah. The Lao tribes. who are found prin- cipally in Lower Burmah and are of Aryan origin. are closer ethnologically to the people ‘ the west than they are to their Mongol neighbors of China. I Siam and Cambodia. and this is very noticeable in their numerous festivals. The celebration of the “End of the Calendar" corresponrds our New l Year's Day. The year is escorted out with great pomp. whil: the young girls sprinkle. either with perfumed water or with black mud. the youne men. who put up with their fun in the best of humors. Mimes dress themselves. in curious disguises to represent our first parents. kneeling down, raising ‘ their right arms, and making speeches full of good wishes for everyone in the coming year. According to legend the first inhabitants of the Laos coun- try were shaggy-like beasts, so the dresses , of the mimes are of bark made to resemble long hair, while on their heads they wear hideous masks with movable jaws.
