Morgens were welcomed with great worn by Queen Elizabethat purse of King Islands of the stem of the banana. This
erai and 'Zeki'l alone failed to James, also the quill pen used to sign stalk, whiqh usually grows to be six
inches in diameter and from fifteen to
twenty feet high, hae very valuable
fiber, from •which are woven beautiful
textile fabrics. Many of the finest In-
dian shewls and wrappers worn by ladies
of fashion are manufactured from this
fabric.
So, too, OA excellent article of paper
is !wide from it. But are no varieties
of bananas wild? Yes, some have been
found in Ceylon, Cochin China and the
Philippines. Thesee of course, have
seedo, but they are inferior to the lone,
oultivated varieties. The banana is
cultivated by suckers, and it is in this
way that the literal plant perpetuates
itself indefinitely. In Central Africa
you may find thousands and thoumands
of. plants that literally have in them the
germ and life of 10,000 years' duration.
The banana belongs to the lily family,
and is a developed tropical lily, from
which, by ages of cultivation, the seeds
hen been eliminated, and the fruit, for
which it wan cultivated, greatly expand-
ed. In relation to the bearing qualities
of thh freit, Humboldt, who early ow
the wonders of the plant, said that the
ground that would grow 90 pounds of
potatoes would aho grow 33 pounds of
wheat, but that the same ground woald
grow 4,000 pounds of banana,, cons..
goodly to that of wheat 11 1. 133 to 1,
and to that of potatoes 44 to 1. The
benata possesses all of the essentials to
the sustenance of life. The savage of
the sea isles and the jungle owes whet
be has of phyeical strength to this food.
Wheat alone, potatoes alone, will not
do thie. When taken as a steady dist

not know whose beauty I admire the
most, the majestic cootie palm, with its
heavy crown of groat frilled leaves, or
the - graceful banana,. „with its great
leaves, which are six tot long and two
feet wide.
The leaves of the banana are tender,
and the strong winds of the tropics—

beast and bird as well as man are fond of,
and the owner, when he lives in a
sparsely settled country, must needs
protect his plantation by a fence of
some thorn plant.

to them, for they looked askance at hini

curiosity in their eyes. Once he came
out of the blacksmith shop, and, meet-
bg his sister-in-lew in the roadway,
stopped her, or she would have passed
gigs averted head.

A drU flush passed over his face; hie

'Does 'Lliy want me to go?'
Ho ain't said so ; but -
111 Mak about it.' he said slowly,
terming back to the smithy,where a red-
hot tool awaited his hammer.
But thinking about it only seemed to
hind his heart more closely than ever to
tie arid spot he called home. He had
looked forward to spending all the re-
maining years of his broken, ruined life
there, far from the world and from those
who had know him in the past. Then a
gnat desire had risen within him to re -
mai war 'Lirabeth. He shrank from
the thought of !fleeting her, speaking to
her, and felt rather glad she did
not appear at ehurch. A few times in
passing he had caught a glimpse of her
walking about the yard or garden in the
whiter sunehine, lee.ning on her crutch,
*ad the sight had sent him on his way
with downcast face. He had just sat
down before the fire to smoke one even-
ing when there came a timid knock on
the door, It was just between daylight
and darkness, and he supposed it to be
some neighbor on his way to or from the
dere who 'wished to drop in and warm
himself a little.
'Come in,' he said hospitably, and
reaching out, drew the other chair near-
er the fire.
The latch was slowly lifted, and the
door swung open, and then he started
to his feet, pipe and tobacco falling to
the floor, while his face flushed and
paled and his breath came in a sharp
sigh. It was lizebeth, her bonnet
pushed back, her shawl hanging loosely
around her eihoulders.
I've been to the store for Marthy
Ann. I wanted to go to get out away But we knew he told his story, tho' he never
s ke a word,
from the house a little while, and I An' it was the saddest sty that our -ears held
ever heard ;
the treaty of 1erlii with. A large
round table inlaid with pearl stood in
one of the windows. Wo passed out of
another door on to the grand stair -case,
with beautifully csrved balustrade and
figures bearing lamps. The walls hung
with fine pictures, the floor so slippery
that you could hardly milk. The cen-
ter of the floor and stairs were coverer]
with dark red cloth. At the foot of the
etairs stood a pretty toy ship large
eaough to plebes some favorite son.
Then we chine again to the entrance
hall and walked round the gardens.
On our way borne we looked into the
Church of Saint Ethelzeda. Lord
Salisbury has kprivate ohapel in there
as well. There was a Sunday School
excursion at Hatfield and the place was
swarming with chiMren. -They were

Lord Salisbury's Home.
Hatfield House, the home of Lord
Salisbury, is situated about twenty
miles from London, in a beautiful part
of the country. The park is five min-

hall was lined with armour and leathern of beer would pay

banqueting hall, with marble floor and
large fireplace and the,. fire ready laid.
At one end of the room es a grand gal-
lery of carved oak for the UntliCiarUB.
The walls are hung with life sized por-
traits of kings and queens. From there
we were conducted into a long corridor,
looking on to the lawn, with figures in
full armour standing with lamps in their
hands,then up -stairs into an ante -room.
There were some lovely carved cabinets
to be inspected, one the maid opened,
and showed us a large roll of illuminated
manuscript, giving the genealogy of
Queen Elizabeth, traced back directly to
Adam. A pretty Turkey carpet covered
the centre of the floor. The other part
was waxed and polished. Inlaid boxes,
vases, and shells ornemented the tables.
From theee we went into the library. It
looked very snug and cosy. Book
ehelves lined the, Walls, writing tables,
easy chairs, couches and cushions, all
epoke of comfort. A fine marble fire
place reeched half way to the ceiling.
The large bay windows looked into the
garden. Next we entered the .private
chapel, There is a gallery round one
side and end, and it is provided with
chairs and cushions embroidered with
silk and gold, and were made four
hundred years ago. The seats be-
low in the body of the chapel are all
carved. There is a fine pipe organ at
one side, a stained g ass window at the

The banana goes back to the early
s'
days. Alexander'soldiers, as Pliny
says, joined the sages of India seated in
its shades and partaking of the delicious
fruits. Hence the name " sapientnm "
Was given the plant, which likewise
bears the name of Jupitor's fair daugh-
ter, Musa. Now 0 has been shown thet
the banana is of Malayan origin. How,
did it get to India and to South Amer-
ica and to Mexico? The feet of birdS
have borne seed a full 10,000 mil*
while the cocoanut floated well nigh the
world %round in the great ocean cur-
rents.
But the banana. has no seeds, nor has
it a casing like the globular cocoanut to
float it around over the waters. Then
it must have beep carried by man. It
