Under the terms of his will Prince George receives 2,000 and Princess Maud and Lord Carnegie 50,000, while other royal beneficiaries are the king and queen,' Queen Alexandria, the princess royal and Prince Arthur of Connaught. The largest gift ever willed by a subject to a British sovereign was that of 500,000, which fell to Queen Victoria on the death of one John Camden Neild, who died in 1852. The son of a London goldsmith, Neild succeeded to 250,000 on his fathers death, but, being of a miserly disposition, he Jived In poverty. After his death he was found to have left the whole of his property, with the exception of a few legacies, to Iler Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria, begging her majestys most gracious acceptance of the same for her sole use and benefit. Another man who remembered the sovereign in his will was Sir Ernest Cassel, who, on his death in 1921, left property to the value of 6,000,000. His London residence, Brook house. Park lane, may one day become a home of the royal family, for Sir Ernest directed that in the event of the death without issue of his daughter, the house and its contents should be offered as a gift to the then reigning sovereign.

" Ties Given Turkish Bath Railway construction engineers have found that railway ties, even when for a considerable time, still contain 15 per cent or more moisture, and therefore are susceptible to decay, since bacterial growth requires moisture. In recent experiments an effort has been made to drive out moisture by using the same process that nature does, and dissolve, neutralize and wash out the sap and other liquids which obstruct and close the pores. Warm air saturated with moisture Is circulated among the ties. This opens and cleans the pores of the wood just as a Turkish bath does the pores of a man. The saps and resins filling the vesicles themselves, expand with the heat and force their way out, to be diluted and carried away by the warm vapor. After some hours of this treatment, the amount of moisture in the lumber is reduced by very slow degrees, until, at the end, it is practically dry, and the wood is removed from the kiln with not more than 5 per cent of moisture left in it. Lumber so treated, engineers assert, is Immune to decay as long as It is kept dry. So the ties, after their Turkish bath, are given a waterproof coating by dipping into a hot bath of heavy asphalt. air-drie- d The Optimist. began an unfortunate man, So have I have seen better days.

Navajo Story of Creation George Rogers, who has recently returned from the Navajo country in New Mexico has obtained some interesting information concerning these tribes. Most interesting is the Navajo tradition of the creation of the world which Is practically identical with that described in the Bible. First, there was a great god Ya. There was nothing but water and space. Then Ya put forth his hand and the land came up out of the water. Again Ya put forth his hand and the sun, stars and moon appeared. Then Ya created a man and a woman. These two were the first Navajos. The legend goes on, says Mr. Rogers in the Mentor, paralleling Genesis even to the rainbow, which appeared in the sky as a sign between Ya and his people. Maid out. Everybody Happy No, maam.
