THE LION ROCK 0F CEYLON. Wonderful Natural Fortress Remark- able F or Its Curious History. Among the many relics of ancient civilization now to be seen in Ceylofl none is more interesting than Siglrl. a. wonderful natural fortress remarkâ€" , able not only for its singular appear- ance but also for its curious history. About 475 AD. a parricide prince, Kasyapa by name, who had also at- tempted to murder his brother, fled from his home into the wilderness, where he founded a new capital city round a rocky mesa. Four hundred feet above the level of the surrounding country on the three- acre top of the mesa, Kasyapa built his palace,â€"â€"a monastery, for he want- ed to make retribution forhis sins,â€" and many other brick and ‘stone build- ings. He carved out cisterns, a bath- ing tank and a‘natural-garnet-studded throne from which he could survey the city and the wonderful expanse of luxuriant tropical country near by. For many years he lived‘there 'in se- curity, 'and then his vengeful brother came. Kasyapa foolishly descended- from his rock to give battle, and his war elephant,'turning aside to avoid a marsh, caused his followers to think Vthat 1'he' wished to r'eti'eat;"so retreat they did, and Kasyapa’s brother had his revenge. After the prince’s death the monk’s maintained the citadel for a long time, but.thejwalled’cityithat‘ surrounded the mesa gradually decay- ed, and so in time did the'edifices on the summit. Six centuries ago they were abandoned. ' ‘ To-‘d y the mesa, on which the archaeologists are working, is stained red by the action of_ the rain on the bricks of the citadel, and “When? the sun strikes it at the right angle it looms up in a sort of bloody splendor, forming a fitting monument to its former villainous ruler. _ ‘ Facing a terrace"at the base of the rock is a guardhouse. 0n- theifront of the rock is carved the headof a lion, and on this samé terrace are its . claws, between which a staircase: as- cended, so that itis thus apparent why the mesa isgcallegi.i5‘lion rock," a tranSIation of Sinha-girlâ€"or, as it is contracted, Sigiri. The staircase was a remarkable work, for Kasyapa had I There Are Many finisting Species of‘ l to build it round walls that bulge row ward at base and summit. It was a walled gallery of stone, spiralling round the rock to its summit, and was covered with cement and decorated frescoes, some of which are preserv- ed even now in their original brilliant colors.

It has been found that the age of a fish may be read from its scales. These increase in size by annular growths, two rings being formed each year. The “otoliths,” or ear stones, which lie in two sacs on either side of the base of the cranial cavity, afford anoth- er means of determination. Like the scales, the otoliths increase by two rings annually. Each spring a white ring is formed and each autumn a black one. Thus the num- ber of either 'White or black rings in an otolithygives the age of the fish in years. ' In the case of flatfish the lat- ter method has been found more res» liable, whereas in the case of the cod the scales give a‘better result. Al- though varying much in size and shape in different species, the otoliths show: a remarkably constancy in the same‘ able value species. , ._,. . â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"_J in the diagnosis of a} .. -.â€"-- Minard's Liniment Co., Limited.
