ALL WORK GUARANTEED Moore, - Santana BRIDGED AN OCEAN The Lost Atlantis That Was Swallowed by the Sea. A NATION OF MANY LEGENDS. Plato Got His Story of the Continent and its Ruin From Solon, the Old Lawgiver—The Theories That Were Built by Ignatius Donnelly. Far out beyond the Pillars of Her- cules. where the Atlantic ocean stretches broad and deeo today, men of imagination like to believe there lies a buried kingthim. The sea washes over its once fertile pintas, and creatures of the deep float in and out among its top- less towers. Seaweed and slit have buried its temples for ?0,000 years, Here, scientists of a romantic torn will tell you, lies the lost island of Atlan- tis. where once there ruled the richest and most powerful of the earth, a world power while wolves still howled upon the seven hills of Rome and the glory that was Greece lay yet un- dreamed. But today all that remains of the lost kingdom is a little group of islands. the Azores; mountain tops these that were not wholly overwhelmed whop the proud island sank Into the se Many years :sJ an Irishman. Ignatiu Donnelly. who possessed an active im- agination 'Ind a mind which worked along interesting and unusual lines. wrote a book about Atlantis, In which he proved, to his own satisfaction at least, that the lost kingdom reels , ex- isted and was not a fable. The earliest authentic InfOrmation about this mystery land we find In Plato. who averred he had it from his grandfather. -Solon. the famous law- giver. who had spent some years among the Egyptians. Plato told of a great continent which had existed 9.000 years before lying to the west of the Pillars of Hercules and making war upon the nations to the east. Only Athena and Egypt were able to with- stand the onslaughts of the Atlantana, and then suddenly. \in a day and a night,\ the Island was overwhelmed and sank into the sea. This was the story Solon had from the Egyptians and?\Which his grandson wrote down, and the legend has persisted ever since. Diodorus Siculus. a Roman writer, tells how the Phoenicians discovered \a large island in the Atlantic ocean between the Pillars of Hercules, sev; eral days' sail from the coast of Africa. This island abounded in all manner of riches. The soil was exceedingly fer- tile. The scenery was diversified by rivers, mountains and forests. It was the custom of the Inhabitants to retire during the summer to Magnificent country houses, which stood in the midst of beautiful gardens. • Fish and game were found in great abundance; the climate was delicious and the trees bore great crops of fruit at all seasons of the year. Soundings made by British and American vessels have shown coecin- alvely that surrounding the Azores there is a submerged plateau, which it does not require much imagination to identify with the \rich plain\ mention- ed by Plato From this lost continent Donnelly believed that ridges of land ran ta the present coasts of South America and Africa. originally, so that before the time of which Plato wrote the eastern and western hemispheres were connected by land Thus he ac- counted for many similarities in the plants and animals of the two hemis- pheres which otherwise are very dif- ficult to explain. The continent as described by Plato was mountainous, but was surrounded by vast fertile plains. It was rich in precious metals and had numerous tem- ples and statues of gold and silver and Ivory In the sudden and violent destruetien of Atlantis. \In one dreadful day and alight.\ Donnelly believed he sae; the origin of the legend of the deluge, so universal among the followers of all religions The Biblical deluge. - the flood which the Greeks believed. from Ahtt only Deukalion and Pyrrha esetiped, the overflow which Chaldean legends tell of all these. Donnelly be- lieved, had their foundation in the de- tdruction of Atlantis. Plato tells 'us that the rave of the Atlautaus had fallen from their high estate and committed sins, and the Zeus determined to overwhelm them. An earthquake preceded the sinking of the land, and there came a great storm which brought the sea rumhing in over the once fruitful land. - Before this deluge Atlantis was the greatest power In the world. Donnelly said. Not•only had It made war against the Infant nations of Europe. conquer lug France and Spain and Africa as fair - es the Nile, but colonies -Were, es- tablished In Mexicb, in Central Apler Ica and along the valley of the Missis- sippi. The mound builders were colo- nists from Atlantis. After the deetruc- tion of the parent continent the east- ern and the western hemispheres lost all remembrance of each other, as both of them at last forgot the great Atlan tic or if they remembered at all re• membered It only as a legend, a faint and shadowy tradition. Only a few of the thousands of in- habitants of Atlantis escaped. but these few carried to Europe the seeds of the white man's civilisation. They settled In Egypt and in eastern Europe and were the forbears of the Aryan race.— Kansas City Star., \ikomprolloppoolmaerfepOW THIC INLAND IOMPIRB-- LURE OF THE CIRCUS. Hold of the Musio and Sawdust Oddr Upon' OldPerformers. Sometimes I think there must be twtt distinct vedettes of humanity. said an old circus man, one or which we might call the rovers and the other the stay at homes . Wh i tt my own taste for roving it was hard for tue to on derstand that ninety nine person, , in every hundred are content to stay in one place most of their lives and even IWO unhappy if taken out of it. but there are such people. awl they are the vast majority. The rover, who is one . man or woman in et hundred. likes .0 wander and Is unhappy if confined to one place. Probably if It were not for him there would be uo circus. Love of the road .has a strong 'bold On all the circus people, from performers to canvasmen and drivers. \When you hear the band play you join, out!\ is the way they put It themselves, and once I had a striking illustration -.or this. I was checking window paper in a small town and came to a tine plate glass front. It was the best tailoring establishment there and ordinarily would have been passed by the lithog- rapher as unobtainable, but It had a single sheet of our paper and -I went In to take up the order. It developed that -the tailor's brother ;yes a rover and had trouped with circuses as a bandsman—a windjammer. In the ver nacular. His influence had put that lithograph there, and he °halted with me. \You won't catch we round here to morrow, Mike, While that show is In town!\ he said. \If I saw as touch as a side wall half a mile off I'd be join- ing out again! No, sir! Pm going sip into the country tonight. My brother pays me good wages here, and there's nothing in trouping.\ A week later I dropped back to the show. It was 10 in the morning, and the parade was just leaving the lot. Somebody shouted, \Hey there, Mike!\ from the big baud wagon, and on going nearer I saw the tailor's brother. seat- ed among the other windjamtliers, with a red and gold coat, a plumed hat and his cornet. \I thought you were going up into the country.\ \Forget it!\ be replied. \I didn't \ He had heard the band play. Circus people are of all sorts -old and young, Americans and foreign born, well paid performers and bosses and ne'er do well hostlers, cauvasMen and razorbacks.

I never knew a man in any line' who would not occasionally scold about his occupation and regret that his talent bad been frittered away in such an un- promising field when he might have done so much better in something else. but that Is no indication that he doesn't like his job, and circus people like theirs.

The Stew a Train Can Strike. The force of the blow struck by a modern train going at high speed is greater than that of the shot front R modern gun. At least such -is the state: meat of a scientist who has been look• ing into this question. He estimates that a modern passenger train will weigh about 400 tons and that it moves at a velocity of seventy to sett- enty-five miles an hour. or about 100 feet a second. A mass of 400 tons pro pelted at this velocity will strike n blow twice as great tut that delivered by a 2,000 pound shot fired from a 100 ton cannon. This, he states, accounts for the tremendous destruction caused by collisions.—New York Press A Fish Story. A fisherman caught seven bass in tee Potomac river above Washington at one time. This is how he did It: The bass were caught and strung on a line and kept swimming In the water alongside the boat. When the last fish was being placed upon the line the entire bunch slipped away from the fisherman Rut Imagine his wonderment when at Ms next cast the last fish strung upon the line took the bait and the whole seven were safely landed. The gentleman who vouches for this story is without doubt an honest and truth telling man.—New York Tribune. Astronomers , Work.

Remedies That Restore Health to Ail- ing Fowls—Homemade Hopper. Condinieutal feeds should always be avoided except in case or sickness, when they should be used as a medi- cine and the supply stopped as soon as the bird recovers. Instead a tt.ting three prices ror these combinations. supply the dock with tt hopper 01 eilar- coal and occasionally cleat' out the di- gestive tract by putting epstan salts in the mush. Half a teaspoonful to each bird can be given wthitut danger. In feeditig the unish dry and keeping a supply of oyster shell, grit, charcoal and so on before the birds at all times a hopper or feeding - device of some sort is necessary. To supply this want a varied assortment of devices has been invented. The merits of some would warrant their use if the price were not beyond the farmer's pocket- book, but that is Just where the diffi- culty lies. Every time the farmer pays a big price for somethng he can easily manufacture at home he is robbing hinaseff of just that much clear profit 'A hopper that can be built any length desired and have as many compart- ments as the feeder has need for is five feet long, eight inches wide and twelve inches high to the square. The board which forms the front of the trough Is five inches wide. The laths, are placed two inches apart. inside measurement. The top strip, to which the laths are nailed, is two and a half inches wide. The top may be given any slant desired. When raised from the floor a platform must be provided. With these simple directions and some odd pieces of lumber a cheap, efficient hopper s may easily be made in a few hours. Summer Pruning. In theory summer pruning has a strong tendency to cheek the super- abundant growth of the tree, to en- courage the formation of fruit buds and to make the tree generally more fruitful. When the work is done care- fully it doubtless has this result. It Is quite possible. however, by summer pruning to force is weak growth from aide buds which might otherwise de veiop Into fruit !olds, and such a course naturally tends to diminish the fruit- fulness of the tree it often happens that trees are denteired by storms or broken down under heavy loads of fruit. Such Injuries have to be reme- died as far as possible by pruning.— Country Gentleman. For Halter Pullers. Stretch a small rope across the stall behind a horse that Is hielined to pull at the halter.
