When sueh a line is traveled in the summer, especially after some years, the marks are sometimes found high up on the trunks and are like­ ly to escape the eye of the inexpe­ rienced. As many of them wiU also be partially overgrown, the task of the surveyor who goes over one of , these old lines is not always, easy, j If the boundary line passes to the j left of a tree selected for blazing; the cut is made Upon the right side. • If tlie line goes to the right th e , tree is blazed ilppn the left side, j lit'running a boundary at a cor-. per, where two lines come together,' either a "monument” is erected-—a stake supported by four bowlders— Of a tree is blazed on all four aides to indicate as nearly as possible the turning point of the line, . . 1 I ’he permanency' o f 1 the record made by blazing trees is guito ro-i markable.

For l)«Aflac»i 0 m MACS*Afltl-Pafh mils A FLOATING ISLAND. It Was Found ftoanUnti About In the South Atifcotfo. A United States cruiser out de­ stroying dereliefs found its water supply running low. The water tanks are usually filled at Corn is­ land. but the ship was too far from it to sail there wHhont losing pre­ cious time, which if could not af­ ford to do then, as it was hot on tho track of a particularly dangerous derelict, and the chase had led pret­ ty well down toward the coast of Honduras. So when a low bank of purple that might be a cloud or might be laudwas seen low down on tlib eastern h >rizon it was decided to make for ii, in the hope that it might turn out to be a email coral island yet uncharted. It proved to bo a ’little island about threc-QUarters of a mile around and a quarter mile wide. In shape if was long and narrow, with a thick growth o! vines and bushes reaching down to the water’s very edge, Three tall cocoaimt palms grew in the middle of it. No life of any kind was on the island, nor was there ftny water, though instead o f . being sandy or rocky, as sueh is­ lands Usually are, tho soil was rich, dark and very momt. After gather­ ing the eocoanuts the sailors return­ ed to the cruiser, which, oddly enough, seemed much farther off and considerably more to the south­ west than when they left her. Then it just dawned on them that they had been visiting one Of the floating islands so often heard about, but seldom seen, in the south Atlantic. Further observation soon confirmed the suspicion, as the cruiser remain­ ed near it long enough tp/see the island change Its position* These floating islands are parts of other islands torn away by hurri­ canes or some great seismic up­ heaval. They drift about for mouths, moving slowly Awith the. winds and currents, held together by the matted roots of trees and plants- until they either attach themselves again to solid land or are disintegrated and eaten away by tho action of tho wares. In some rare instances they gather other flotsam! of the sea to themselves and, stranding an a reef, become in time a new island.*—-New York Press.. -,. . ■ ■ t , ....... .... . . * Ar» Accident.
