DornbUltjr of CyprMn Wood.
Sections of old water pipes of cy-
press tbathad been und-rground and
iu use for nearly a century were re-
cently exhumed at New Orleans, and
to the surprise of all the wood was per-
fectly preserved and as hard as when
laid. They were part of the first water
works system of the city, and it is
thought the wood was from trees 100
years old when laid.

Switzerland presents an object les-

rives all the electricity It requires foi
public and private lighting and the

British "Consolene# Money,"
"Conscience money" in Great Britain
now amounts to thousands of pounds
annually. The first sum noticed was
on March 30, 1788, when £860 was car
rled to the public account In conse-
quence of a note received by the chan-
cellor. The writer with troubled soul
implored him, "as an honest man, to
consider the money the property of the
nation, and to be so Just as to apply
It to the use of the state In such man-
ner that the nation may not suffer by
its having been detained, and thus to
ease the conscience of an honest man.

Canials Do Not Mind the Weather.
The native camels of Siberia are a
source of constant wonder to travel
ers. On the Mongolian plateau, for In-
stance, the thermometer often registers
a temperature of 40 degrees below zero,
but the camels do not mind it at nil,
walking about as bltthely as If the
weather were as balmy as spring. On
the other hand, the temperature on
the Gobi desert In summer Is some-
times 140 degrees above zero, atid the
beasts mind that heat Just as little as
they do the extreme cold.

Maxim Gorky, author of "Fonia Gor-

the plow was described by a Greek his-
