An Italian physl cliiii, (kroHH, tells about It: - It Is iikrmmI, he says, thut all 11 ring i'i'iiuImujs Im'Kiiii their first exlnteaco in xii It water nud that ns a result the hu man body (and Indeed every animal body) Is lurgely ruadu up of salt. If you taslo your blood or your tears, nhku are tuo extract of blood, you will find that both ure quite salt lu flavor. More than thin, however, every living being iwhkows wlib'lii his tody, lu the cellular Hinge, all tboHe strange marine orgnnlHiiiH which we study so eurtoUMly Its uiummins.

Human Sacrifices to tho God of the 8rpnt. There is ample proof that human be lli k hove been offered as sacrifices to the god of the serpent In Haiti. A I-'reucb ntvhUxliop of the Island dc Hcrlhes a visit made by one of the priests to a voodoo nMHcmhly. The man had dl?R'ilMM himself as a negro. ii nd he was thus able to tuluglo unde tected with the crowd In the otMwnrlty otitxlde the Mucrcd circle. After the white cock and white gout bad been statu and offered up and their blood had been xprlnkled on the company a burly yotme negro came forward .and prostrated himself before the prlesteas Then, stlJl kneeling, be made hi prayer: "O mamuu. I have a favor to ask of thee." "Whnt Ih It. my son?" said the ncgren encouragingly. "Wilt thou not give us, to complet tho sacrlilce, the goat without boms?' ' The pricHtcHH gave a sign of assent Tho crowd roundabout separated, and there was revealed n child sjttlng with Its feet bound. The French pries! rushed away In Kcarch of assistance In preventing the unholy rite, but the authorities ou whom ho called were strangely slothful.

Whtn Men Hurry. "Singular," said a man waiting for train on an elevated railroad platform and looking down a street to where a hundred men and boys had gathered around two wagons that bad come to gether lu collision, "there are a hun dred men standing around those two wagons, Just staudlng there, gawping, apparently with nothing else to do ami not In a bit of a hurry, but let any otic of those men come up the stairs to this platform when there Is a train coming In and he'd rush and hurry and tear himself apart to catch that train and get glum If he missed It, though he knew very well that there'd De on other tralu here In a minute. Let him nibs a train by a second and he thinks the world Is coming to an end; let him see somebody hoisting a safe up the outside of a building and be will stop and waste half an hour.

Secretary Blalno had said of Mme, de Struvo that slio was the brightest woman he had ever met, and every body who knew her agreed with this verdict. Iler knowledge of English was remarkable, even for a Russian, and her sallies wore famous. For In stance, the day when Secretary Bay ard was mado head of tho American diplomatic service his daughter, Miss Kate Bayard, said laughingly to a young secretary of legation, "Remem ber, I am now daughter of your chief!" to which came, quick ns a flash, the retort from Mme. do Stmve's lips, "Oh, wo all know that you are nilss-ehlef!"-Army nnd Navy Life.

As some of the bird)' live entirely on the shore and ' an probably unable to rest on the surface of tho water, they must accr-mpllsb the whole distance In a single flight, yet they make their way to their destlna tlon with absolute precision.
