large water-power installations, Switz
erland is i full ,of small . power, plants,
nearly every town in that land of moun
tains and waterfalls being well sup
plied with power from the 'white.coal,
as the melting enow on the mountain
sides has well been called. When there
are no large streams, says Cassier's
Magazine, many small ones are im
pounded and collected m reservoirs on
the hillsides, and it is rare to find a
place of any size which is not well light
ed by the power of some mountain
stream.
At Montreux the electric tramway
gets its power in this way, and from
the old Roman town of Vevey to the
medieval castle of Chillon one may ride
in a trolley car propelled by the power
of an insignificant little stream which
may or may not be noticed w hen climb
ing up the hillsides just above.
The capabilities of this general utili
zation of natural, power are beginning
to be understood everywhere, and with
the appreciation of the possibilities of
the best methods of long-distance trans
mission, the development of many
mountain ' streams must surely come.
There are innumerable streams which,
while very small, are yet very high, and
these can with comparatively little dif
ficulty be impounded and carried down
many hundreds of feet, thus making up
for their lack of volume by the gTeat
pressure readily obtainable, and, either
by the use of electricity or compressed
air, the power may be transmitted to
many points of application with but
little loss.
NO USE FOR LEATHER APRONS.
Samantha Mann Declines to Trade Jelly
Cake for Cold Buckwheat.
When the children used to go to Pos
sum Walk schoolhouse the dinner hour
was a time when they gathered together
and compared the contents of their din
ner baskets and traded with each other.
Two doughnuts for a piece of pie, one
cookie for a red apple, etc. Some of
the scholars were children of the poorer
class of tenant farmers and their bas
kets were not- filled with anything like
so appetizing an outfit as the baskets
of the others. Mary Jane Spurling.for
instance, used to come to school with
buckwhea cakes for dinner. They were
of the large kind, about 16 inches round
and a quarter of an inch thick. They
had been buttered thinly while hot, but
the butter would melt quickly and the
cakes would be as cold as tombstones
by the noon hour.
Still, they were the best that Mary
Jane had, and as the spirit of barter
beat in her humble breast she essayed
to exchange a couple of these pieces dc
resistance to Samantha Mann for a
slice of jelly cake. Samantha turned
up her snub nose a trifle higher and said
in a scornful tone:
"Oh, yes; now, Mary Jane Spurlin',
you don't git me to trade any o my nice
jelly cake fur one o your ole luther
aprons.
And Mary Jane Spurling never smiled
again. .
ABSURD THEORIES.
The Ancients' Explanation of the Rising
nd Setting; of the Snn.
The recent death of a man who had
maintained ell his life that the earth
was flat recalls the curious theories
entertained by the ancients to explain
the rising and setting: of the sun, says
the ew lork Journal. They thought
the earth was flat and were gTeatly puz
zled to know how the same sun which
plunged into the ocean at a fabulous
distance in the west could reappear the
next morning" at an equally great dis
tance in the east. ' - - r-
A number of remarkable theories
were advanced and every- one of them
wrong. The old mythology asserted
that after the sun had dipped in the
western ocean at sunset (the Iberians
and other ancient nations actually im
agined that they could hear the hissing
of the waters when the glowing globe
vt as plunged therein) he was seized by
Vulcan and placed in a golden goblet.
This strange craft, with its astonish
ing' cargo navigated the ocean by a
northerly course, so as to reach the east
again in time for sunrise the following
morning. . .
Among the more sober phvsicists of
old, as related by Aristotle, it was be
lieved that in some manner the sun was
conveyed by night across the northern
regions and that darkness was due to
lofty mountains, which screened off
the sunbeams during the voyage, ..
A Compliment to His Host.
The German emperor is a master of
little surprises quite other than those
which occasionally fetch his troops out
of bed in the middle of the night when
they least expect it. While atLow
ther castle, England, be took the op
portunity afforded by the absence of
Lord Lonsdale to unpack a very fine
marble bust of himself and put it in a
position screened by the leaves of a
large palm. Tbe sudden unveiling and
presentation was quite dramatic in its
character and u need hardly be said
that Lord Lonsdale was highly de
lighted with the carefully planned
compliment.

The proper bcaM for a grizzly bear
hunter to ride is a good mule. Dr. W.
F. Edgar, United States army, tells in
Kecreation why a mule k best.. , The
doctor was wandering near a camp up
in Washington -state on a mule.- He
had his rifle with him, and, seeing 'a
bigr bear in the trail, fired. The bear
tumbled over and out of sight. It looktv.l
like a clean kill, end the doctor start
ed toward the place, and was nearly
in sight of the hollow where the bear
had disappeared, when the bear climbed
up over the edge and went for him.
It was then -that the mule was of thi?
utmost service. The mule rose on its
hind feet, turned .sharply around, anil
headed for camp. A horse or a mustang
wouldn't have been quick enough, the
bear was so close, but all the hunter
had to do waa to hang- on. The muh
knew what to do without being told.
