A Useful Leg. in rV,a lininari horiv. at lo&Ht. art never replaces nature with better work, but when false teeth refuse to ache and wooden legs save men from drowning one is tempted to make some exceptions. An Alabama duck hunter had a curious adventure one day while on the water in a skiff. He had lost a leg in a rail road accident and wore a cork substi tute, UBcfnl for ordinary purposes, but preventing him from following game ex cept in a boat. On this occasion, as he was an expert markBman, he had almost loaded the skiff with ducks when, in reaching after a particularly tine uira, ne overreacneu and upset the boat. Down went the mras, the gun ana me hunter, and as there wbb a swift current at that point the boat drifted away be fore he came to the surface. Being un able to swim, the hunter clutched wild ly for a Bupport, but found none, and would certainly have been drowned had it not been for his cork leg. It kept him afloat, and at first he was overjoyed; then he became apprehen sive. The cork leg had a tendency to invert him in the water, but after strug gling against this for some time he managed to unstrap the umii ana use it as a float. It was then ensy to paddle ashore, and the hunter was saved, although helOBt nearly everything else but his life. Youth's Companion. What tirumllns Are. Professor Barton of the Institute of Technology gave a half hour talk before the students of the Cliauucy Hall school tbs, nt.her morning on "Drumlins." It is only within r. lew years that any ex tended research has been made into the history of drumlms. Xne investigations in this state have been conducted largely by Professor Barton himself. A drum- lin. as the speaker explained, is a mouna of material projecting upward from the surface of the earth to a sufficient height to be called a bill. Tins mound or hill is made from loose bits of earth and rocks torn from ledges at the time some tUi,i,inrlB nt TORTS ACO WllRn this TJOrt of the earth was covered with a sheet of Ina at least 4.000 feet in thickneBS. As this vast sheet moved off to the south ttur,i it curried with it Quantities of earth and small fragments of rock, which were deposited m vaueys or neap ed into drumlins. The reason for the depositing of the matter in valleys is an easy one to ex plain, but how it came to be Spiled into hills has never yet been discovered. The professor is at the present time making ei.;. ha aiihieet of a srjecial study, and UlllO UM tm j--- . . he hopes to solve the mystery before he concludes the work ol mtuung a map oi the state of Massachusetts, showing the location of the 1,600 drumlins within its borders.
