Live a Lake of Frame.
One of the most remarkable of the
hot springs In the Yellowstone Ka- .
: tioual park Is Flrekole lake, in which
flames seem to appear in the water.
Those flames are seen from only two
points, ami should the wind be causing
a disturbance of the water the tourist
may not see them at all. At the east
ern end of this small lake is a circular
opening of a deep seated spring not
; unlike other vents of thermal waters,
j Through this vent, which usually
stands full of clear, transparent water,
numerous bubbles of mingled air and
j superheated steam rise gradually. Be
fore reaching the surface they unite to
form one large mass that in its upward
passage strikingly resembles a flame
of tire. Tills continues until the bub
ble bursts, only to be followed by a
repetition of the phenomenon. The
explanation is that the slightly agl- .
tated water is reflected in the thin
| film of the ascending volume of gas. j
The phenomena are far better seen at
i Firehole lake titan elsewhere, but un
der favorable conditions they may ho
' seen at other localities, but in a far
less striking manner.
Sacred Bangles.
One of the oldest and most curious
of existing industries is the making of
j narrow rings or bracelets, called bnn
j gles, from the ehank, or sacred shell of
| the Hindus. This conch—Turkiuella
! pyrum. IJnn.—Is found chiefly at a
! depth of about two fathoms in the gulf
of Mauaar, and about 2.000,000 of the
i shells are exported annually to Cal
, cutta. So important is the bangle of
i the Hindu women that J. Ilornell,
' representing the Madras government,
j has specially investigated the industry
1 Tracing the early history of ehank or
| naments. Mr. Ilornell is unable to as
! sign prehistoric specimens in the Ma
dras museum to the later stone age, as
j had been previously done, but believes
j marks on some of them were made by
i metal implements. He has found, bow
I ever, remains of ancient bangle facto
j rics scattered over the greater part of
| India. Bangle cutting Is now confined
| almost entirely to Bengal, and it proves
: to be in flourishing condition In spite
of the growing taste for gold orna
■ meuts.
Adversity's Only Sure Bet.
Don't place too much dependence in
human nature—not because men in
general are untrustworthy, which 1
do not mean to imply, but b-Mause
they are human Promises are of(en j
born of momentary enthusiasm and j
made with the best intentions of ulli |
mate fulfillment. But tilings happen, j
| conditions change, ardor cools; the |
sentiment of liberality is superseded .
by one of selfish interest, and pledges j
| made in the best of faith are forgot
I ten.
Everything human Is frail and mu ;
table. The nature of a man may j
: change with each new environment I
| but tile coin of the realm Has a nxeii j
■ and dependable ' alue \ oil may tai j
to cash in on promises, but you can |
always collect U>:i cents on a dollar
bill.
That’s tbe iTii-on I say to you that 1
it's ail light to have faith in men. hut I

Origin of the Argentine Flag,
Mr. Eraser, in telling of tile origin of
the Argentine liag. says: "The em
: photic patriotism of the American is
tepid alongside the hot blooded nation
, ality of Argentina, it is daily inculcat
j ed in the schools: tile blue and white
' striped flag is honored on every occa
sinn. When the Argentines were in rev
oluih.n against Spain in 1810 and need
ed a banner to flaunt against the red
and orange of the enemy they got pieces
of blue and white cloth intended for
garments from an English warship
lying at Montevideo and made a flag of
1 it So the Argentine flag, like much of
Argentine prosperity, is due to Great
Britain.” Mr. Eraser holds that, in pro
[Ktrtion to the population, there are as
many millionaires in Argentina as in
the United States.—Westminster Ga
zette.
Housemaid Courtesies.
A gayly gowned and garrulous house
maid sat down by an acquaintance on
a trolley and at once said: “IJeilo.
Sadie! Where you livin' now?”
"Nowheres." was the reply.
“IIow's that?”
“Em married.”
“You ain't.'"
“Sure thing Look at that!”
She held up her ungloved left hand
In triumph, for there on the third finger
was a shining new wedding ring.
Staring at it in wonder for a moment
the other girl asked, "Well, who got
stung?"—Chicago Herald.
Green Diamonds.
While a real emerald colored din
mond Is rare, those with a green tinge
are quite plentiful. The Museum of
Natural history in l'arts lias several
examples of green diamonds, hut Gres
den has the most famous, and it is one
of the five marvels of gems known to
the world.
