Mr. George Baldwin of To'ronto Mark Twain said the only introduo again officiated as judge and gave tion to a literary audience that seemed general satisfaction. to him the right word in the righti % ! place, a real inspiration. was as fol- lows: ._. . . . _ “I inquired how far down in the ocean life is found. and the scientist re- plied that while soundings have been taken to a depth of six miles no traces of life have been found much below the four mile level. and oceanographers be- lieve that at the bottom of the great ocean abyss, say at the five or six mile levels. no life exists or can exist. “Because of the immense pressure?” “.\'0. because of the lack of food. You might think that food would sink to the bottom. since some of the deep~ est areas are near the shores, notably north of the West Indies. east of Ja- pan, south of Newfoundland and, deep- est of all, cast of the island of Guam. Undoubtedly there is an abundant food supply on the surface of the ocean at these points. yct none of it in sinking will reach the bottom for the reason that whatever is not devoured on its way down by creatures of the sea will be dissolved in the lower levels. where the solubility of water is greatly in- creased. owing to the increased press- ure. Not only is it believed that prac- tically all animal and vegetable matter is dissolved at a depth of five or six miles. but the softer bones of animals are probably dissolved. leaving only the very hardest ones to reach the bot- tom. Thus the trawl nets bring up from great depth sharks’ teeth and the ear bones of whales. which are ex- tremely hard. but very rarely other bones." Why It Cannot Exist Much Below the Faur Mile Level. In the American Magazine Cleveland Moffett describes the discoveries made by scientists who aboard the steamer Albatross fish all over the globe at a depth of three or four miles and bring up specimens for museums. Dr. Aus- tin H. Clark of the Washington Na- tional museum. was the scientist in charge of this interesting vessel during one of her recent cruises in the Pacific. In the following extract taken from his article Mr. Mofi'ett reports a con- rersation that he had with Dr. Clark: They have a telephone system now in Constantinople. But it took over twenty years to establish-it. and it is more than probable that the view en- tertained by the average Turk with regard ‘to its merit does not materially differ from that expressed by his highâ€" ness. the grand vizier. “That would happen every night. I should never have a moment’s sleep. I suffer quite enough from the palace as it is. Take the thing away. It is an invention of the evil one. and I will have nothing to do with it." “Your bigbness’ grasp of the pro- cedure is wonderful!" my slumbers are disturbed by the ringing of a hell within a few inches of my head. 15 that so?” “That is so, your highness.” “I rouse myself. I take a part of the machine in my hand and hold it to my ear. I recognize a voice from Yildiz." “Exactly. your highness.” “Exactly. The voice tells me to proceed at once to the palace. as his majesty wishes to see me immedi- ately.” Many of us who have courage "I think I understand; correct me it I am wrong.” said his highness. “It Is night. I am fast asleep. Suddenly The Grand Vizier Looked on the New Scheme as an Evil One. Long years ago, before the Young Turk party was born or thought of. the present writer was intrnsted with negotiations for the issue of a “fir- man" (concession) permitting the in- stallaticn of the public telephone in Constanfinople. says a contributor to the London Chronicle. Said the then grand vizier. “This talking machine of which you speak. can it be placed any- where?” "Anywhere. highness." Then followed an exhaustive ex- planation of the conveniences of the system and the advantages certain to attend establishment of telephone com- munication between his highness’ pri- vate residence and the imperial pal- ace.

For a great many years doctors pro« nounced it a local disease and gprescribed local remedies. and by .constantly failing to cure with {local treatment, pronounced it lincurable. Science has proven ca- ;tarrh to be a constitutional dis- Eease and therefore requires consti- itutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh iCure, manufactured by F.
