ARNISH ROCK.
A llfththoaae Which la Wllkoil
LIcM of Ita Own.
The most extraordinary of nil light
bouses is to be fouud ou Aruisli rock.
Stornoway bay, n rock which' Is mig
rated from (he Island of Lewis by a
channel over 500 feet wide. It Is lu tlio
Hebrides, Scotland. On this rock a
conical beacon is erected, and on its
summit a lantern Is fixed, from which,
night nfter night, shines a lipht which
Is seen by the fishermen far and wide.
Yet there Is uo burning lani in the
lantern, and no attendant ever p to
it, for the simple reason that there is
no lamp to attend to, no wick to train
and no oil well to replenish.
The way in which this Kx-ullar light
house Js illuminated Is this; "On the
Island of Lewis, 500 feet or so away,
is ft lighthouse, and from a window In
the tower n stream of light is project
ed on a mirror in the lantern on the
summit of Aruish rock. These rays
are reflected to an arrangement of
prisms and by their action are con
verged to a focus outside the lantern,
from which they diverge in the neces
sary direction."
L The consequence Is that to all intents
and purposes a lighthouse exists which
has neither lamp nor lighthouse keeper
and yet which gives as serviceable a
light, taking Into account the require
ments of the locality, as If an elaborate
and costly lighthouse, with lamps, serv
ice room, bedroom, living room, store
room, oil room, water tanks and all
other accessories, were erected on the
summit of the rock.

THE ISLAND OF FIRE.
Java's Wonderful Luke of Boiling
Msd and Slime.
The greatest natural wonder in Java,
If not In the entire world. Is the JustJv
celebrated Gheko Kamdka Gnmko, or
Home of the Hot Devils, known to the
world as the Island of Fire. This geo
logical singularity Is really a lake of
boiling mud situated at about the cen
ter of the plains of Grobogana and Is
called an Island because the great em
erald sea of vegetatioa which surrounds
It gives It that appearance. The island
is about two miles In circumference
and is situated at a distance of almost
exactly fifty miles from Solo. Xear the
center of this geological freak Immense !
columns of soft hot mud may be seen i
MM.ll ' I , til ... ' .
wiiuiiuauj' rising bdu railing use great
timbers thrust through the boiling sub
stratum by giant bands and tben again
.qmciiy withdrawn. Besides the phe
nomenon of boiling mud columns there
re scores of gigantic bubbles of bot
lime that fill up like huge balloons and
keep up a series of constant explosions,
the Intensity of the detonations vary
tag with the size of the bubble. In
times past, so the Javanese authorities
ay, there was a tall, spirelike column
of baked mud on the west side of the
lake which constantly belched a pure
stream of cold water, but this has long
been obliterated, and everything is now
a seething mass of bubbliDg mud and
slime, a marvel to the visitors who
come from great distances to see it

Burma Cnatoma.
Two ceremonies In Burma mark when
childhood stops and manhood or wom
fcnhood begins. The boys have their
thighs tattooed and the girls their ears
Wed. The boring of a girl's ears la
commenced with a needle, and the
puncture Is gradually Increased until
the tip of the finger "can be Introduced.
The enlarging process is the one car
ried out In the Polynesian Islands,
where a native can carry a good sized
knife hanging, in the lobe of his ear.
The ugliest mutilation Is that of the
Eskimo, who punches a hole In his
cheek and puts a bone stud into It The
Burmese boy suffers great pain from
the elaborate ornamentation of his legs,
which are decorated In blue and red
patterns.
Organ Grlndera In England.
By turning the handle of an organ!
the Italian in England obtains nearly
eight times as much per week as he
can earn In Italy, more than four times
as much as the English farm laborer ,
and nearly three times the pay of thi
policeman who moves him on when
requested. Thousands of skilled ar
tisans who have served apprenticeship
us carpenters, painters and Joiners get
only half the organ grinder's pay, for
the Italian reckons it a very poor week
Indeed if he makes less than $15, and
he often gets $17.50 to $20 or more.

The Ang'.?r Flah.
The angler flsh angles for his prey.
Prom the upper part of bis head project
two long tentacles, with fleshy extrem
ities, which wave about in the water
and attract small fish, that, approach
ing and attempting to seize the sup
posed bait, are themselves captured by
the angler. Without this device to at
tract his prey he would probably starve
to death, as he Is heavy and of com
paratlvely slow motion.

Instead of blowing In his money."
