an instance of how all things work

course, follow because certain areas
are peculiarly susceptible to cold
that a chill may not be conveyed to
the nervous system from other
points. Prolonged sitting on r
stone, or even on the dump grass, is

A ( iiriiuii <r<-utli>n Mill1.
The various nations of ♦ he earth
have their different legends or
myths concerning the creation.
That of the Scandinavian countries
is particularly interesting.
According to the myth, Odin, Vili
and Ye, sons of the giant and giant-
ess Bor and Beltsa, killed Ymir, and
from his body formed the heavens
and the earth. < >f his blood they
made the seas and impassable oceans
which sin round the earth; of his
bones they made the mountains, us-
ing his teeth and the splinters to
make the stones and pebbles. From
his inverted skull they formed the
heavens, and of his brains they
formed the clouds. His hair became
plants and trees when given a chance
to take root in the new, warm soil,
and of his eyebrows they made a
wall of defense around Midgard
(Eilen), which was the central place
of abode of men. When these mir-
acles had all been performed to suit
Odin, who was the chief god, the
three brothers took the sparks of
tire whi h rained down from the
burning world Musphelheim, and,
throwingthem over the face of heav-
en, made the sun, the moon and
the stars. —St. Louis Republic.

ENGLISH PRIME MINISTER.
Ilr IIm tli«* IligM to Adflut m Ui Kvi-ry
IKimrtuicnU
Let us consider for a moment
what is the real as contrasted with
the theoretical position of tho
prime minister, in the first place,
the prime minister, as a rule, makes
his cabinet. He is commissioned by
the queen to form a cabinet because
he is the man whom she considers
f,, p,is.cMj the confidence of the ma-
joruy of the house of commons, lie
foi . hi. cabii I by asking certain
me In i s of the two houses to hold
the great ollicesof state, lie might
do tliis in tine day and without eon-
..ltiug ..iiv ' lie.
Asa i.iu.t r of fact, what usually
h i] pen > it I .is: As noon as the "eiu-
n.ission to form a government has
! en rt . i\ I the prime minister
| l..kcs inn) b. * coiilidc'iee the two or
j three lilt .1 x ho will hold the chief
oiiicc>, ai'.d ilicy to; ether talk over
the oilier nanus. When a in .11 is
defined upon, he, as a rule, j..in.-, the
; conclave and helps to consult as to
men and places, and so the cabinet
1 gradually evolves itself. No doubt,
j as generally happens in this world,
; the prime mini tor's choice is never
really free. Certain men must be in
I the cabinet whatever happens, and
hence they may be said not to be
ciio-en by the premier, hut to be
ministers in their own right. In
spite, however, of this, the fact
| that they aro asked to • 'I've by the
j premier makes them feel his su
| periority. When tic cabinet is made,
the theory of the unwritten consti-
tution is that the cabinet governs.
In reality it seldom does anything
of the kind. Each cabinet minister
has very groat power in his own de-
partment, but the cabinet as a cabi-
net can tl i little.
Since, however, it knows every-
thing or utmost everything that
is going on it can exercise a great
deal of indirect power. The pre-
vious knowledge that the majority
of the cabinet would like or dislike
a particular policy has a great influ-
ence, but still the cabinet does not
rule.
Who, then, really rul"s? The
prime minister, but limited in a
way which we must describe later.
What gives the prime ..linisU'r this
power? In the lirst place, he sum-
mons and presid .-t over and so
largely controls the cabinet meet-
ings. Next, if a vacancy occurs,
he fills it. and o can piomoto men
from the lower to the higher ofp.aes.
Then he can ami does confer with bis
en.leagues in r< rard to the business
of their departments and so has a
hold iqxin the whole nirtchine gov-
ernment. Sir Robert Peel saw every
member of his cabinet separately
every day.
Again, if there is a difference tie-
twecn two other members of the
I overnincnt, the pivniii rdeeidos. If
there is an irreconcilable difference
between himself anil a minister, it
is the minister and not the premier
who resigns. Lastly, tlio prime min-
ister can, by resigning himself, dis.

The man eating fish jmr excel-
lence is the great white shark. It
is otherwise known by the name of
man eater. < lecasionully specimens
are seen on both coasts of the I'nitetl
States, though its more customary
habitat is iu tropical waters. This
frightful creature attains a length
of nearly 40 l'eet, ami it is able to
swallow a man whole. This fact is
prov«tI by an experiment which Haib
( ors are foii'l of making when mich
j a shark is captured. The skull lie
ling preserved, they amuse them- _ ,
j selves by crawling oneafter another Fancy Groceries, at Living Prices
: through the distended jaws. It i
I would be unsafetodo this, however,
I when the heat I has been freshly cut
off, liecniMe under such conditions
the jaws will snap together fiercely
for -onto time afterward if anything
is placed between them. The skull
fit' a big slinrk, by the way, is ul
ways salable, owing to the demand
by museums ami curiosity hunters.
