You havo all uotlced tho beautiful prismatic colors on tho Inner surface f slwlJj, even of the common oyster bells. This surface U composed of Um substance called mother-of-pearl, and Its Iridescence and Its gloss make It beautiful. Do you know what makes It Iridescent? The substnnco Is mado up of nn infinite number of llttlo parts, noparated by minute lines find this lias the effect of breaking up ordinary light Into Its prismatic colors. It Is a sim ilar nrrangement of the particles that makes tho opal Iridescent. The so-called "unlucky" nnturo of tho opal consists In tho fact that It sometimes bursts ulthotit apparent cause, but tho burst ing Is merely n natural result of Its pe culiar composition. Sometimes a mid den clmngo of temperature makes It burst; sometimes the breakage Is duo to a catiFo that even a lapidary can not determine. Tho belief that tho stone Is "unlucky" is nothing but a silly suierstltlon. Thna Famous Fo;. Newfoundland Is famous for Its heavy fogs, which, under certain condi tions, drift out to sea and make navi gation dangerous. It may bo that you do not know why tho fogs aro so henvy' there. They aro caused by tho mingling of tho Arctic current, with Its Ice fields nnd Icebergs, with tho warm waters of tho gulf stream. This produces greit masses of vnnor, which, when westerly winds prevail, Is carried out to son; but when tho wind Is from tho south or tho southeast tho fog Is carried In on tho Island, covering tho bays nnd tho headlands. A flood Swim. Daniel Perkins wns n man of few wortls, and n ninn of true worth nnd courage, soys tho nuthor of "Tho Log of n Sea Angler." Early In his life ho was tho skipper of a coal schooner which traded up tho coast from Bos ton. Off Ogunqult a galo struck tho schooner so quickly on one trip that before anything could bo done tho ves sol was over and going down, and Dav id was thrown Into tho water, ten miles ofT-shoro In his oilskins. Ho managed to got out of tho oil skins, nnd tlfii, tnklng his bearing started to fiwlm to Ogunqult Captain Sam told mo tho story. A friend of his, It happened, wns going to Boston In his schooner. Ho had retch ed Boon Island, and wns bowling along at a good clip when ho heard a hall. "Hold on, will you? I want to come aboard!" The skipper wns "struck all of a heap," as Captain Sam said, for there was not n salt In sight nearer than llvo miles; but ho Jammed tho tiller over and camo up Into tho wind, and nearly ran Into Daniel Perkins. "How aro ye, Daniel?" said Captain Snm. "Which way yo goln'?" "Why, I was going homo to Ogunqult, hut If It's ull tho samo I'll como aboard." So Daniel swnm up to the quarter, and Captain Snm hauled him In. IIo Imd swum (Ho miles, nntl hnd been In tho water nearly half a day; but Cap tain Sam said, "Ho didn't seem tuck ered, nntl would havo struck tho count somowhero between Portsmouth and York Bench, sure." Trial lir Ortlral. In the Slual ivcnltmtla trial by ordeal Is still practiced. In all criminal cases where no witnesses nru forthcoming tho Judge, "el mabaslma," testa tho sus pected perhon by fire, by water or by dream. In tho first tho Judgo places an Iron pan In tho tiro until It Is retlhot ami gives It to tho accused to touch threo times with his tongue. If marks of burning nro shown on tho tongue the accused Is pronounced guilty. Tho the ory apparently Is that If ho Is not guilt; tho molsturo on tho tongue prevents It from being burnt; If guilty his tongue would dry up from fear of being dl cot ered. The test by water Is described ns fol low;: "Tho mnbashaa' sits with tho accused and tho spectators In a circle -with a copper Jug full of water placed In the conter. This Jug Is then made to njipcur to movo round the circle by menus of witchcraft or hypnotism. It tho Jug returns back to tho Judgo the moused Is pronounced not guilty, but If the Jug stops opposite tho accused ho t pvonounccd guilty." This description Is rather wanting U detail, and It Is dlfllcult to know hott a Jug which only appears to movo can bo u trustworthy Index, In tho test by dream tho "mabaslma" sleeps and sees In a dream If tho accused U guilty o not.

"C. B. Sc Q.," replied the hotel clerk, without looking up. Hcnienyl was qulto dazed. Hut, says the contributor of tho storj to tho re cent memoir of the vlollnUt, his sense of fun carried him through. "Ah I" ho said gravely. "Then I will go D. A. T." It was tho clerk's turn to be puzzled. "What does that mean"? he said, looking up this time. "Well, what did you mean?" demand ed nemenyl. "Chicago, Burlington and Qulncy, of course."
