Difference In the ¿.train That Com«« Upon Its Two Parts. The rudder of a wooden ship Is com posed of the stalk and the backing, which are so joined together as to form in effect a single piece. The complete rudder Is coppered to protect it from worms, and then, besides being practically all In one piece, it has that appearance also. The stalk is the part to which are at- taehed the pintles, or pivots, by which the milder is suspended and held In place, these going through eyes set in the ship’s sternpost. The stalk runs up through the stern of the ship, and to Its head is bolted a cap to which are at tached llie ropes by means of which the rudder Is controlled. The backing is the blade part of the rudder. By far the greater strain comes on tlie stalk, and the greatest strain of all comes on the bead of the stalk, the rudder head, where it is held. The stalk is made of the wood most likely to stand the strain, carefully selected, sound, well seasoned oak, while the backing Is made of spruce or hard pine. The stalk is of a single, solid, massive piece, stout as an ouk tree and indeed, of the dimensions of a small oak, some thing that a man can pin his faith to, If he cnn have faith In any wood, while the backing or blade is, like many mod ern wooden masts, built up. It would be difficult if not Impossible to find trees that would yield planks big enough for the purpose In a single piece, and the built up backing, made of pieces of selected wood, cun easily be made of ample strength to with stand any straiu that will be brought upon It. As to the stalk, stout nnd solid ns the oak may be, the head may be twisted by the force of a tremendous blow from a wave upon the rudder, or, under the repented strains of long use. the head may split nnd so make the stalk use less. Then the rudder is taken out and fitted with a new stalk. A suitable ■ tick Is selected nnd worked down to the proper size nml form, and very probably the old backing Is attached to It. The life of a rudder stalk would probnbly be tw elve to fourteen years. The backing might last us long as the »hip.—New York Sun. These Have the Power of Spouting Blood From tlie Eyes. That certain lizards have the power to emit a streinu of blood from their e}’es has been a tradition of the south west from time out of mtud, hut uiaOy scientists have classed It with the Jew el lu the toad's head and the hoop suake. Ituymoud Lee Dltmars, curator of reptiles In the New York Zoological society, made exhaustive research to ascertain what foundation lu fact, If any, there Is lu the tradition of the blood spouting lizards. He had nearly made up his mind that it was purely mythical when he came upon a star tling demonstration of Its truth, lie had received a particularly tine speci men of the Mexican horut d lizard and after photographing it proceeded to measure It. The result ho tells in hts "Reptile Book.” "The latter process,” he says, "seem ed to greatly excite the creature. It finally threw the head slightly up ward, the neck became r'gid, the eyes bulged from the sockets, when there was a distinct souud like that pro duced If one pressed the tongue against the roof of the mouth and forced a small quantity of air forward. This rasping sound, consuming but the fraction of » second, was accomixiuled by a Jet of blood at groat pressure. “ It hit the wall four feet aw ay at the same level as that of the reptile. The duration of the Sow of blood ap peared to be about one and a half seconds, and toward its termination the force gradually diminished, as noted by a course of drops down the wall and along the floor to a position almost under the spot where the rep tile had been held. The stream of blood seemed to be as fine as horse hair and to Issue from the eyelid, which was momentarily much swollen. "For some time after the perform ance the eyes were tightly closed, and nothing could induce the lizard to open them. Within two minutes after it was placed on the ground the protrud ing aspect of the eyeballs and the swelling of the eyelids had disap peared. “ Most surprising was the amount of blood expended. The wall and floor showed a course of thickly sprinkled spots about one-eighth of an inch In diameter. There were 103 of these spots.” —Philadelphia North American. THE PAY CAR. gone one Is tempted to speculate W hat tales would not have been constructed around that fathomless mystery hud It appeared north lusteud of south of the equator. When It rouses the poetical Impulse within the brain of aboriginal Aus tralians, what might It not huve done with the ancient Greeks or still more audent Egyptians? But they were de nied )t. The aboriginal uses It as he uses most things, In a topsy turvy fash ion. To him the world Is a flat plain crowned with a dome shaped roof. When a man dies he has to go up to the roof and slowly Journey over It until he cnn claeuber down to the flat again and squeeze through, once more a man. The coal sack Is the hole he goes through to get on to the roof, and to get up to it Is a very long climb. The Journey over the roof Is also very long, and It Is hard to squeeze through when he reaches the flat again. 80 long does it take that by tlie time a man has completed the Journey not only bis hair, but his skin, hus grown white with age. Wherefore the black fellow who has Kiiule tlie Journey rejoins his tribe as a white fellow. Thus it was that when the white man first came to the laud the aborigines regarded him as a long lost comrade.—Macmillan's Magazine. Biggest of All Animals. The sulphur bottom—or blue whale, aa It Is better called by tbe Norwegians— Is not only the largest living animal, but tbe largest that has ever lived, ranching a length of eighty feet or very rarely a little more. Whales grow much larger than this in books and newspapers, but in actual life not one In a dozen even of this species attains a length of eighty feet. The popular Idea of a whale is that It is a clumsy animal, blit, as shown by models, It has the graceful lines of a yacht. The total weight of a whale is about sixty tons, and unusually large nnd fat Indi viduals must reach at least sixty-five tons. The largest animal of the past so far discovered is the great Dinosaur brontosaurus, and this big reptile weighed about thirty-eight tons.—Mu- “ Cherry-Blossom.” TH E JAPANESE GIVE GOOD EXA M PLE It is a proverb of Cherry Blossom Land that a healthy stomach is the basis of all strength. Good nature is also recognized as of great importance. Tiie Japanese as a people are remark able for their health, endurance, pa tience and skill. The cherrv tree is the most highly prized of all in Japan. It not only gives fortli a beautiful blossom but tlie wild cherry tree furnishes a bark which is most highly prized in medicine.
