Caaaiteiite. the only Important ore of tin. has been known In the Carolina* for orer twenty years, during which time eartoiis attempts have been made to exploit deposits at several places, hut up to the present tbe output has been an Insignificant factor In the world's production. When prices take hysterical Jump# as they did In May. at which time they rose to 48V4 cents per pound, putting tbe temporary ▼aloe of tin above that of nickel or alnmlnlmn. Interest is attracted toward all deposits giving promise of commercial production, so that at the present time prospecting la being carried on at half a dozen or more localities near tb« North Carolina and South Carolina line. The belt or region through which tin la found extends from Gaffney. Cherokee county. 8. C, four or Bve miles south of tbe etate line, to Llncolnton. N. C. a distance In an air line of about thirty miles and nearly midway, of the states east and west. It seems not unlikely that somewhere In thla atrip commercially vainable deposits may be developed — Frank L. Heaa In Engineering kings-

The metal tungsten Is remarkable for tbe great density of Its alloys, and on this account, since the introduction of repeating rifles of small caliber, many attempts hare been made to flatten the trajectory of tbe ballets by augmenting their density through tbe addition of tungsten. This fact lias led to a singular situation with regard to tbe tungsten deposits found In tbe eastern part of France that hare hitherto been exploited by a German company. The question la now seriously debated whether the French government should not assume entire control of this supply of what may become an Important material of war. t’p to the present nearly an the tungsten of commerce has come as a byproduct from tbe tin mines of Wales.

an estimate recently published the total amoont of deposits held by natlODilAsnks. savings banka, state-and privs^banks and Issn and trust companies In the United States reaches more than *12.000.000.(100. This Is an average of not far from (ISO per capita. Including men. women and children In the calculation. It Is known that In the savings hanks alone tbe depositors number more than 7.000.000Tbeae figures are. of coarse, only approximately correct. No exact statement on tbe subject could be made. Tet It la certain that In no other country under tbe sun ds the people own any such amount of hard cash, from which they draw regular rates of Interesc—Philadelphia Bulletin. Mr. Howells ss4 tbs Port. A person called upon a certain editor of X^e Atlantic Monthly of the name of william Dean Howells and. a poem'-and

Trapping the aiualler members of the monkey family Is a cjmparailvely matter. Uft tbe banter who wishes to secure live sjieclmens of tbe orang I outang cannot have recourse to t : usual melhnda and has to employ I laborious process The process Is baaed j U|-jn the fact that the orange have I liking fur certain tree* and frequent these to the ex elusion of other nearby growth*. They seem to regard them as a sanctuary and flee to them In time j of danger. Ascertaining a tree partic- ' ulariy favored, the hunter Brat drives his quarry to Its branches; then while his lieatere keep up a din for the pur- ; pose of preventing an attempt at ea- j cope the natives are set to work to j < chop at the trees within a radios of flfty feet all about the simian fortress : No trunk Is cut completely through, j but Is left with Just enough fllwr to bold the tree In iwdtlou. This work Is 1 quickly accomplished with the large j corps of servants, and at a signal one | of the tree* Is toppled over. The chop i plug has been so .done that the falling | tree .Camus Wtlb It its neighbor, and In j twinkling of nu ryi‘ Ibc trees with | rmiiu* of flfty feet from the mark i ed tree lie upon the ground, leaving! tbe orang outangs with no opportunity j for get!in*; away through their leafy avenues of escaiie The remainder of the process simply consists of chopping down the tree of refuge and throwing nets over the escaping orones. In which they soon lieeome entangled In their efforts to throw off the Incnmbranna

Here, you see. are the nine digits froni U to t written down In that order. and below tliem are tbe same' digits from left to right, and you will s<— that each line makes 43. and you will And that the remainder—the third line—adds op 43. Another little exercise Is to set down tbe fallowing fifteen figures and then sec If mil can use six of them In such a way as to make a total of 21: iii tit One way of doing It la to take tbe two 7's. one 5 and one 1. which make four figures, footing up 20. and then to use two other figure* as a fraction.to represent one. For example. 7 plus 7 plus 5 plus 1 pins 8-3 equals 21.—Baltl-

U tbe south seas and In various groups of Islands in the Indian ocean tbe aborigines shoot fish with tbe bow and arrow.
