An Extraordinary Projector.
A child’s struggles with the Intricate
facts of history are sometimes almost
as serious a matter to him as the bat
tles of which he reads. The results,
however, are not always without hu
mor, as a story in Everybody s Maga

“General Braddock was killed in the
Revolutionary war He had three
horses shot under him. and a fourth

A kind of bread is made along the
Columbia river by the Indians from a
moss that grows on the spruce fir tree.
This moss Is prepared by placing it In
heaps, sprinkling it with water and
permitting it to ferment Then it Is
rolled into balls as big as a mans
head, and these are baked in pits.

“Take my advice and don’t.” replied
the villain “An ostrich egg weighs
from two to three pounds.** London
