I'm not trying to ,:.Neu," myself, mind! I haven't the right, for I've been right down t.lt•`ro i;; my time, too, and 1 ought to have known." "You have been abroad though for a long tins," said Jean on the spur of the moment, and then colored, re- membering that she was encroa.hing on persunal ground.

"We are certainly happier work- ing," she admitted. "The difficulty is to apportion it fairly." "Howlong have you been out?

It's pleas ant to hear the old brogue! I haven' boon in Scotliiiessince I was n boy but my old mother came from Cum !node and ; he a oke its lingo till the 'day of her ,hath, though she died in fifth Avon u:." ' i1:` wart out tvith that, and Jean was left with a pleasant sense that s,'!nrLow lite had become enriched Yet, twenty-four hour:, before, had she been asked rhe would %cry prob- 0bly Lav; declined 1-Inrry Fordyce's nequaintwoes! Ilcr day' was not over yet, nor had she heard the last of the extraordi- nary story with which sho had come in touch. About four o'clock, as she was drinking her tea in her office, Miss 1'entt•rden rias announced. Jean sprang up, flushing all over her fete, for it was no ordinary, happening to have such a tveil-known figure call there in quite 0 friendly manner. "Oh, good afternoon!" she said as she hustenL'd to set a .hair for the elegant figure in its enveloping seal- skin wrap, at the sante time thinking that she had never seem anything se beautiful t'r fas;ir.ating in her life. "How peel of you to come. You are quite a:ono? l suppose Miss Rankine told you about nus She tva3 here yesterday." "She did. May I shake hands with you, Miss I)etrmpster, and ::,y 'Thank von'? I dcr.'t knew all you have done, ()nt I'm quite sure, now that I see you, that it is a great deal more than we shall ever be able to acknowledge or reray." "No. no!" said Jean confused:y. "I have duns ju=t n rb:nom: or -:y a friendly word new and agai:. to Mr. Rankine. Of course I 3aw at ()nee that he was not in the set at the ^oarding- house, and that he belonged t;u a dif- ferent world from mine. But he waj Scotch—and lonely—and that 'wa:; all. 1 should :ike to have d:,re a great deal more, only, you understand, it w• a not peasihle. But won't you sit d wn? I am so pleased to ate y.,u, and rd course it is a very great h-tr.r,r, and I'll never forget it a= long a= I live." Carlotta drew off her glove and lifted a deprecating hand. "Don't talk like that. I can't li.=.t' n! I had to mar.otuvr- to get to you alone this nfternoon, Miss Dempster. But I felt 1 must see you without. Miss Rankine. She told me part of what you told her yesterday, and I've come to hear the rest," She sat down quietly, opened her coat, and threw it back so that the delicate white satin lining showed against the cheek which was quite as fair, Jean's color fluttered in her face. She had had many grey days in that Broadway office—days in which life seemed stale, flat, and unprofitable; but surely this one recompensed! "What did she tell you?" she asked, sitting forward with her eyes fixed intently on Carlotta's beautiful face. Her heart was sore over the relentless fate that had parted Alan Rankine from a creature so rare and desirable. "Why, just that he had had very hard times here, and that we had been too late to see him. Did lie actually army leave the city last night?" "Only last night, by the midnight train. I have had Mr. Fordyce here to -day to confirm that." "Mr. Fordyce? Oh yes, Judy did mention his name. The man who sent him West, wasn't he?" "The same -a Scotsman—and an understanding Scotsman too; One who has painted New York pretty red more than once, if ono Is- to believe all one boars, But I came to the con -1 elusion to -day that probably the big-! gest half of the stories about him were lies. He's very straight, and he's unhappy too—if I'm any good at reading faces." "You are wonderful, I think! The sort of woman people trust instinc- tively. It's one of the greatest gifts in the world," said Carlotta, "Oh, no!" cried Jean, shrinking back. "How can you say that when you know what your own gifts are? I was at the theatre again last night. I've seen a lot of actresses, most of tho great ones here, and some who have come with distinguished records from Europe, but I've never seen any- body like you." - "In what way?" "Oh—tho way you grip people. You simply lay hold of them, I don't won. dor he couldn't bear to look at you, knowing you were partacl for the time being." "Who are you. talking about?" ask- ed Carlotta rather sharply. "Why, Mr. Rankine, of course! Didn't Miss Rankine tell you he was n the theatre last night, and. that directly he saw you on the stage he imply rose and fled?", "No, she dirt not tell me, Ile was in tho theatre last night, you say! How didn't I row? Oh, what a Gruel shame! And now he is far away, Ile really did go on that train, you think?" "i'nm afraid there it,n't a doubt about it. Mr. Fordyce told me he had nil the tickets, and now he is at lousi six hundred utiles away." Carlotta dropped her cheek on het hand and her face became straw:), old and sad. "It is ul: at frightful tragedy. ltoty did it happen that he was in the Man - batten last night? Surely it was the very irony of foto,' From what Judy told ale I should not have imagined that he had any money to spare for theatre tickets," "lie hadn't," ,answered Joan promptly, "The •tickets wero mine, given Inc by a business client who couldn't use them, He only camo be- cause 1 urged him, and because 1 thought it might be -a little, bit of cheer for hint to refnember his last night, in New York." "You saw a good deal of him, didn't you, Miss Dempster? He often spoke of you in his lettere." "I raw n good deal of hint at the beginning, but not ;utterly. I was feeling ;anxious about him just before he turned up the night before last to say good-bye." "He had band times, had he not? Much hard;lr than he, allowed us at home to know about," "I'm afraid so," answered Jean realizing that nothipg could bo gainecl by hiding things, and that Miss Ten- ' terdcn had come determined to know the truth. "But one thing you may be glad and proud about, h'llss Tenter- den—right through he never lost grit nor that fino sense of honor which made hint different from the usual run of men ono meets. And I'm sure he'll come out on top yet. I'm most frightfully sorry for you, Of course, I'M only a humble working woman, and I know 1 luaven't the right to' speak to you liko this; but I sec y'out'l heart is in your mouth. I've been through a lot, Miss Tenterden—far more than you can have any Iden of, and God forbid that you should over sample my particular brand of suffer- ing. I gave awn~ all I had to a bad "than, and I'm left stranded here, so far front home! Now you, in spite of; tvhat you are, and though you have a; world you your feet, can be sure that' whatever Alan Rankine may be doing,; or what the upshot may bo ho will never be unworthy of your love, nor 'of any woman's." Carlotta rose a trifle unsteadily to her feet. "Thank you, dear woman -thank you very much! You have suffered a lot, you say? Have you seen things! even up then in lite? Do you think -- do you think this horrible tangle,will� ever come right?" "Sure thing," said Jean cheerfully,) "God's in His heaven—all's right with the world." "You see I feel it all so fright-, fully," Carlotta went on nervously as she fumbled with the fastening of her coat, "because it was through me he; lest his home and his place in Scot- land. Some day perhaps --some hat' - pier day—I will tell you. And yet -- and y-et—I would lay down my life, cheerfully for him; and all I have ac- eomp:ished is to make him a wanat:r-t er or. the face of the earth, and to! scud him to the uttermost ends." "But he'll come back from the ut-I termeat ends," maintained Jean, and' her kind face positively shone. "Just' you wait and see!" Her homely speech, the hearty con- fidence with which She spoke, put! slime odd kind of courage into Car-' lotto's troubled heart. "This morning 1 thought everything was dark, and even Miss Rankine, who is the hest friend I have in the world, cou:d not make me feel any' tetter! I even felt that I mustnet away from her for a while, for—for —well, there aro wheels within wads." "There must be," assented Jean.

The days wore on, and March ush- ered in spring to New York, in a blaze of unexampled splendor, But It found little response in the hearts of the two women from Scotland, who, with each dawn; hoped for news of the wanderer on whom they had staked so many of their hopes, The success of his brief season at tho Manhattan had far surpassed the hopes of Graham Madbx. While fully aware of his own powers, which had won him recognition on the other side, Madox was eager to acknowledge that it was Carlotta who had conquered New York.

PHILLIPS, I+ow hens lay while they art going through n complete molt, and as it is not desirable to have hens stop lay- ing in July or early August to take' on a coat of now feathers which will not bo needed for protection before November or December, lot us see, whether there is anything that can, be done about the early -molting hen, I Since modern culling methods havo' come into vogue, considerab:o atten- tion bas been given to the time of, Molting as an index to the laying ability of a hen. Unfortunately for, the pence of mind of poultry keepers' in general, contradictory conclusions have been published by different / vestlgntors. Most of the experimental data show that early molting indicates an inferior laying -record, Folks aro be- ginning to see, though, that early molting, particularly where most hens In the Clock molt early, is often caused by mismanagement, and is not neces- sarily It sign of poor laying ability. In balking of early molters, wo must dis- tinguish between partial molt and complete molt. The degree of molt can usually bo determined by examining the primary flight feathers in tho wing. `Peso feathers drop out one at a time, or et least only a few at u time, and several 'weeks' time ie required for all the wing feathers to be molted. As a rule, when It wing feather is drop- ped it is replaced by the new feather coming in. Normally, from seven to fourteen days elapse from the time ono prim- ary feather is dropped until tho next one goes, with an average) of probably ton days. Approximately four weeks aro required for a wing feather to get its full growth, and a fairly do - finite idea of how long a hen has been molting, and what poll cont, of her feathers have leen changed, can be had by studying the wings. Careful observation will show that many of the hens which show now feathers over tho buck and neck have molted only two or throe wing fea- 0 therli, This means that they are out of laying condition for possibly three', or four weeks, and have undergone a partial lno.t. 1 f conditions• aro' favorable, time liens aro likely to lay well during most of tho.fall, but will, in most cases, undergo a cont-; pixie molt before winter. Lions .that have brooded chicks will undergo n partial molt before start- ing to lay, but if properly handled will lay well in the full. On many farms the feed Is reduced for the fowla after the gross comes; after laying heavily for n fow weeks a majority of the birds grow thin in flesh, stop laying, and begin to molt. Then when harvest come:3, if th:s birds have access to the grain -fields or stacks, they commonly pick up in flesh, the molt will bo stopped, and I tho hens will begin to lay. i Long periods of .excessively Biot weather, severe attacks of lice or I mites, carelessness in allowing broody; hens to stay on nest leo long before' they aro broken up—these are causes of partial molts which make hens quit laying for several weeks during the middllo of the sunnier. ` The above causes explain why r.omo i hens that apparently molt curly are fairly good layers if given a good chance,' But there aro hens which aro poor layers by inheritance, and which begin to molt in July and pro- were all kinds of chores to do—calves,) most important thing to make one , in somo way, didn't you?"

The harvest season is a good time to check up on many things particu- larly on the rosults of thinning. Ono important aspect of the ques- tion which wo seldom hear diecussod and which is difficult, perhaps im- possible, to estimate accurately, is the time the grower saves in picking and packing a crop of thinned fruit as against that required for an equal volume of fruit from unthinned trees. In many discussions of the prnctico of thinning frult,'and certainly in the minds of most fruit growers, the op- eration 'is charged and should bo lbarged with the total cost of the ob, Though, as a natter of fact, it ie probable that wo got back in tho increased speed which is possible with thinned fruit more than the cost of thinning. This greater speed Is due to two different factors, First, the smaller nutnber of fruits per bushol, owing to tho greater average size of the individual fruits; and second, to the fact that a very largo percentage of tho itnperfect specimens havo been removed in thinning and there is much loss, probability of poor stuff, getting by the operator when he speeds up. Tho Experiment Station which has done the best work on this question of thinning apples, has this to say on tho phase of. the question hero under discussion; . • "It has been found in this thinning work; that if trees wore heavily load- ed, the cost of thinning could not fairly be charged 'against the thinned brooL "Different factors, such its the fol - liming, offset this charge - in such Cases: In the first place, the fruit 4kon off at thinning time would havo fe bo picked at -picking time anyway, dln� it would cost as much to romovs It then as it would at thinning time.

Bumb:efoot is a .quite common and frequently serious menace to the health and behavior of chickens. As tho name indicates, it consists: of a swelling of the foot, caused by bruises or injury and resulting in a pus pocket forming under the bottom of the foot which, if not treated proper- ly, will develop rapidly, until lame- ness and possible permanent injury follow. Bumb:efoot is especially pre- valent in the hot, dry weather of mid- summer, when birds aro allowed any run on gravelly, bare ground. If the poultry yards can be seeded down to a permanent sod, there will bo fewer injuries from this trouble. During the hot days of midsummer;, if tho yards aro bare, plowing them once every other week or cultivating them once every other week, will go a long way toward keeping them in a better sanitary condition and re- moving the danger of injury to the birds' feet. • Who Was the Joke On? g• I The Septic -Tank.

(2) The cateh of clover was won- (lerfully improved by the phosphates. (8) Size and quality of grain was inereased, as well as yield, by #)hoaphates, (4) The coat of 400 pounds of 'acid phosphate per acre was more then covered, leaving a substantial :profit in every case.

The Hessian Ply In Ontario, iu eaeh of the past four years the Hessian Ay has been working more or: lees in the winter wheat crops of Ontario. In the Field husbandry Department at the Ontario Agrtcul- tu'al College the ravages of this pest have been studied In each of forty varieties of winter wheat. The esti- mated average pereentrge of plants containing Hessian fly was 3 in 1920, 20 in 1931, 7 in 1922, and 15 in 1323. The susceptibility of the dif- ferent varieties varies considerably.

Insects Carry the Disease. IRE BLIGHT CANNER 1 A BACTEIRiAL BLIGHT OF APPLE, PEAR AND QUINCE TREES, Appearance of Affected Trees—hila the Macau Develops -- Destroy Blighted Twigs—insects Carry tho Disease --How to Control Trouble. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) "Fire Blight," a most destructive bacterial disease of apple, pear and quince trees, is prevalent in ninny parts of Ontario, particularly 11( apple trees. Appearance of Affected 'Trees. Trees affected with this disease frequently' present the appearance of having been scorched by tire, hence the common name, Fire plight. The leaves will become a reddish brown and die and mummify. In some trees a few twigs only may be affected, In other cases practically every twig I will be killed off. i Trees that are affected in this way 1n the early part of the season are either hold -over cases of the blight from the previous season or have been freshly Inoculated through the bloseotn with the bacteria that cause ' the disease, bylbees or other blossom 'flatting insects that have previously become contaminated by visiting trees that are hold -over cases front the previous season. How the Disease Develops. When a contaminated bee or other Insect visits a blossom for nectar or pollen, It leaves behind it some of the bacteria that cause the disease, and these multiply in the nectaries and pass on down the blossom pedi- cel Intp the bark of the fruit spur, where they produce a canker and kill the spur with other blossoms on it, then continue their progress within the bark .of the twig causing canker and death as they go. The leaves on the twig then shrivel up, turn brown, and die giving the character- istic Are -blighted appearance to the tree. Deetroy Blighted Twigs. Growing Hubant Sweet Clover With Oats.

Very little difference was noted in the. behavior of heavily -pruned plum 'tract' and trees receiving much less lirL...ig in testa conducted over a nutituer of years,` with several stan- dard varieties of plums on the grounds of the New York Agricul- tural 'experiment Station at Geneva. tin tho opinion of the station horti- culturists, most varieties of plums regblre but little- pruning following the, proper shaping of the trees after the* are planted. • Since little prun- lag ,gives just as good, 1f not better tretrib, Itis regarded as a waste of 'time and effort to pay too much at- tention to the pruning of plum trees, Thct„ chigf recommendation is to thin tlut';thick growths where necessary auk, to remove broken or Injured btaii 'hes. When the orchard has net been jrtt;fed in the winter, a time should be taken to do this work in the sum- iiIrci but Trot later than the middle tlf Jjlly, It is not good to prune as lt'.aelly in the summer as in the aorMent season, Summer pruning, Is 84141;.to aid in fruit bud formation, hut.;this has been disputed more or dri s lby experimental stations. .'Altproxhnately 20 per cent. of each yiotttto pared by ordinary household of etliods is ,lost in the process. The lt)as'includes much and sometimes all Of the portion of the tuber containing 1:'.ot't.ant soluble salts. Potatoes During mid-season other insects as aphids, hoppers and borers are com- mon carriers of the disease from in- fected twigs to healthy twigs, either 'on the same or neighboring trees. In this way youug suckers and water- isprouta get infected, and, as in the ease of the blossom -Infected twig, the disease will pass on down the bark of the sucker or watersprout until it reaches the trunk or !arise limb where a canker is produced leading to death of the affected part. Where the disease is active during the growing season there is frequent- ly a gummy brown exudate oozing out from the cankers. This exudate contains the causal bacteria in im- mense numbers. During rain storms Ude exudate may be splashts to other parte of the tree, thus leading to fresh infections. How to Control the Trouble. To control and stamp out this dis- ease it is essential to cut out all af- fected portions of the tree. In daing , this, care should be taken to cut well below the visibly affected por- tion four to six inches, it possible, as the bacteria are usually welt advanc- ed beyond the visibly cankered area in the bark, The saw, knife or shears used should be swabbed after each cut with a good disinfectant, e,g., corrosive sublimate 1-1000, for - walla, or five per cent, carbolic acid. lIt the canker is in the trunk ur larger limbs the affected part should be 'removed by outttng • well around the Danker, two or three inches at least beyond the visible extent of the can- ker. The wound should then be swabbed with the disinfectant and then painted over. The best time to cut out the dis- ease le the first time it is seen, as each lgfection, so long as It is allow- ed to stay, la a centre tor.continued spreading of the trouble, All ma - Weal cut away should be carefully gathered and burned. --Prof. D.

Cases of poisoning are often reported where the individual has passed the. plant without coming in contact with it. This has been explained by the fact that pollen grains, minute hairs and oven exhalations from the plant are sufficient to cause eruptions on the ,r:kitl of susceptible persons. The poison may even he carried on the clothing oq-tools of someone who has been in contact with ft, or it may be that, as the effect of the poison does not appear for some time, the occasion of corning in contact with it may have been quite forgotten. On the other hand, many people handle it frequently with no ill effect. Cattle can eat it with impunity, but dogs are polaoned by it. t;ynlptonls.

A young woman sent a travel article to the editor, and shortly afterwards she was taken seriously 111, AS she ex- pressed a keen desire to see her work in print, her parents communicated with the publishers, and as It result her article ostensibly appeared in the next issue, though In fact. it was 1n only' one copy. This copy was sent to her, together with a cheque which was actually met by her father. A mere amusing trick of the stime character W118 played on Lord Itob- erttion, familirly' known no "Peter." 111 sent a copy of his poem, "Italy," a in('diocrc praduction, to 1115 friend Lockhart, asking him to review It or have it reviewers in the Quarterly ite- vlew. The great critic was unwilling to comply with this; request, because lie cmilld not praise it, honestly, and did not want to offend "Peter" by !4I, 1111'2 It, i'ltiut;ally, however, lie wrote a scathing I'PVIew of the poem, and, having had one copy of It print- ed and inserted as if it were part of the Quarterly, caused it to be for- warded to Robertson at Edinburgh, In it occurred the famous epitaph on Ills lordship: Metre Iles the Christian, Judge, and Poet Peter, Who broke the laws of God, and man, and metre. Only a short time ago a living man of letters was hoaxed in a similar manner, and it was not until legal proceedings were started against the editor and publishers of the presum- ably erring organ of public opinion that he discovered the article had not been published In the usual way. Similarly was a Parliamentary can- didate given a bad quarter of an hour.

In it towering rage lie rang up his ag611t, Who,, in consequence, called upon the sinning editor, and accused hint of having published a mass of libels on the candidate. "Published?" said the editor, with a smile. "Actually we have not pub- lished them, but only printed them, because' they appear merely on the copy sent, under special cover, to your elan. We did that to show him that we know itis record, and as a gentle hint that lie had better avoid the Coarse personalities to which he gave vont the other night."

Where- upon hie counsel lyinde$ to judge and jury a copy of Ityder's Alinanack, and pointed out that, according to that "indlsputahlo" authority, the moon did not rise on tho night in question till three hour's and a half after the crime had been committed. The prisoner was acquitted—on the strength of a copy of Ryder's Al- tnanack in which the year's lunatIq s had been changed entirely for tie trial,. Electric Light. The discovery of the use of elec- trlgity for lighting purposes is credit- ed to Sir Humphrey Davy In the early part of the nineteenth century. This trust not bo confounded, however, with the discovery of electricity which, in its cruder forms dates back to 'Tales in 600 B.C., and Theo- phrastus in 321 13,C. The use of electricity' for lighting purpose was not in common use until 1844 when inlprovOlneuts 111 the manner of con- struction were made 1.y a Frenchman named F0ucaulb, and it was used to illuminate the Place (le la Concorde in furls. In 1855 Jules Dubosequ's electric lamp was shown for the first time at the Paris Exposition. Prac- tically little use was inane of elec- tricity for lighting purposes, however, until the invention of .iablochkoff's candle, Paul Jablochkoff was a Rus- sian, who resigned Ills position trader the Government in 1876 to devote his whole time to scientific study, Ile Produced leis electric candle in 1876, after which the practical use of elec- tricity developed very rapidly. C'hhcchona. Chinchonn, or cinchona, is the name of the South American' tree, the bark of which produces the well- known drug called quinine. The vir- tues of the bark were discovered about 1535, and in 1635 a decoction made of the bark cured of •fever the wife of the Viceroy of Pet'u whose name was Chinchona. The bark was introduced. into Fi`iulee in 1640, and is said to have cured of fever the Dauphin, who later became King, Louis XIV.. The bark came into gen- eral trite in 1680, and Sir Hans Sloan , introduced it into England about the DUST FICONI FALLING STARS, Twelve 'Thousand 'Irons of Star Duet Frail Annually. It is esl1ulate(1 that over' 12,000 Ions of star dust, fall annually on the earth, according to W. J. 0, Murray, M.13,A.A, This dust, continues Mr, Murray, may have originated from a comet, or he the fragments of two great stars which crashed in their orbits ages ago, of the result of some other . ('11st.ia1 catastrophe. j usually it reaches the earth's sur- face 115 11110 dust, but it lust encoun- ter's our atmosphere iu the forte of a Meteor, or more familiarly a "shoot- ; ing star." These "shooting stars" aro small rnaso»s, usually of Non or stone, either followltrg in the orbit of a cornet long since dispersed or circu- lating in interplanetary space. I They gulp%lge on our atmosphere with a tet'rllie velocity, become incan- descent through friction with the air, and in a few seconds are either con- sumed or they explode with great force, and the ashes fall to the earth as stat' (lust. In view of the tremendous number of meteors that hourly plunge into the earth's atmosphere, 12,0011 tons annually is a very moderate estimate. The average number of meteors visible hourly in the whole night -sky froiu a fixed position varies between '30 and 60. But as only those within a few hundred miles are visible to an observer, the computed total is not fewer than several millions daily. Shhoting stars vary much in size, but assuming the average weight to be a quarter of an ounce, then the fall of star dust is close upon 100 tons every twenty-four how's. 'rho fall is continuous throughout the year. It is at a minimum now, ud reaches a maximum in autumn. Yet it would take a thousand million years before sufficient material had fallen to overlay the earth to a depth of one inch. Occasionally meteors are so large that they reach the earth's surface 'before they are entirely consumed. If their fiery flight has been seen by one or two competent observers, I the place where they Ile burled can be determined and their composition discovered. Limestone and magnesia, iron and sometimes nickel are found, but so far no element not known on earth has been discovered. The (Inc dust which collects on our shelves and cornices contains a Small percentage of star dust. But among the largest "pieces of star dust" that have yet been recorded is that which fell in Greenland and was conveyed by Commander Peary to New York. It weighed 361/2 togs. Tho Turkey. The turkey belongs, with the cock and hen, to the gallinaceous family. How it came by the name has long been tt matter of discussion, for it is certain that this valuable bird was introduced into Europe from the new world, and in its introduction had nothing to do with Turkey or with Turks. But It is almost as unques- tionable that the name was originally applied to the bird which la now known as the guinea-fowl, and there is no doubt that some authors In the sixteenth and the seventeenth centuries curiously confounded these two species. As both birds became more common and better known, the distinction was gradually perceived, and the name "turkey" became re- stricted 'to that from the new world -- possibly because of its repeated call - note -- to be syllabeled turk, turk, turk, whereby It may be alniost said to have named itself, In early tines the wild turkey was commonly come upon in what is now southwestern Ontario, in the valley of the Ohio, and throughout the whole Mississippi country. The In- dians made good use of this excellent table -,bird, and it furnished many a meal to the white pioneers. Farther to the south on the bor- ders of Guatemala and British Hon- duras, there exists a perfectly dis- tinct species whose plumage almost vies with that of a' peacock in splen- dor while the baro skin which cov- ers the head is of a blue studded with orange caruncles. Precious Stones In Plants. Substances which closely resemble opals and pearls aro now and again discovered in certain plants. Tho giant tropical bamboos grow in large clumps to the height of 100 feet, In the young stages of growth the hollow steers of the bamboos are filled with a jolly -like substance. As time goes on this dries up and an Interesting mineral deposit known as tabasheer Is formed. Some of this plays a part in mak- ing the bamboo stems stiff and strong, but now and again there is an excess of the mineral which settles in more or less rounded lumps at the joints of the stent. These aro pale blue or white in color, and on being heat- ed become brightly phosphorescent. Thera is a'close chemical connoc- tlon-between the lumps of tabasheer in the bamboo and an opal, and the general color and the manner of light reflection at'e much the same. Quaint Spanish Custom. In Spain a curious custom is always observed on Ash Wednesday which is referred to as "The Burial of the Sar- dine." The principal feature of this la the carrying in procession of a small paper -covered coffin containing a small Ash or morsel of sausage, - which is burled with groat ceremony. This is regarded. as symbolical of the burial of all worldly desires and plkts- ures during the coming fast, At Madrid a vast concourse turns out to watch the burial of the sardine on the banks of the Manzanares, • Waterless Spots In London.

Disappearances were very fregpent in the days of war's, rapine, and adven- ture in .which he lived, and his modern defenders maintain that he was the victim of political enemies. An association of defenders of his memory has been formed. Eminent counsel declare that under the law which permits the re -opening of a case when a new fact is discovered, a shit can be brought even after the lapse of five centuries. . The Goose. The goose form a branch of the family known as "Anatidae," to which the duck also belongs, but as a rule geese are larger than ducks but smaller than swans. Goose is•a common Teutoplc word. In old Eng- lish it was written gos and the plural ges. Technically, the word goose is reserved for the female, the male being called gander. The Latin name for goose Is "Anser," and it is now the name of this branch of the "Auatidae" family. It is held by authorities that the wild, grey or grey lag goose is the origin of the domestic goose of Great Britain. It has an exceedingly wide range in the Old World,apparently. breeding where suitable localities are to be found in most Europen coun- tries from Leyland to Spain and Bdl- garia, Eastward it extends to Chinas but does not seem to be known in Japan. It is the only species indig- enous to the British Isles, and in for- mer days bred abundantly in the English fen -country of the east coast. It does not breed in England now. and only sparingly in Scotland, in several parts of the Highlands and in certain of the Hebrides Islands. Tho American continent possesses by far the greatest number of varie- ties of wild geese. The northern lands of Canada are the great breed- ing grounds, which practically stock all the rest of North America. ' The southern part of the continent hag about half a dozen species of geese not 'akin to those of North America. The largest living goose is said to be the Chinese, Guinea or swan-gobee, and this is the stock whence the dp a meatic geese of several eastern con, tries have sprung. The true home this species is in Eastern Siberia r Mongolia. Out-Generalle( Ex -General, The late Field Marshal von Potio- relt, once commander -in. -chief of the. Austro-Hungarian army, was a man of overbearing and villainous tem- per. He once, after his official re- tirement, net his Waterloo. The field marshal was returning to Vi- enna by tho ordinary express train and took a seat in anon -smoking compartment. An -old Hungarian farrier sat opposite him and insisted on smoking a very pungent pipe, which infuriated the marshal, who was in a vile temper, Enraged at the Magyar's contemptuous silence in the face of his protestations; he hand- ed him his card, The Hungarian put it quietly in his pocekt without turn- ing a hair. Maddened, the marshal.. called the guard and told him to turn - the offender out. 'The guard politely remonstrated with the Magyar, whp Merely replied by taking out the vis- iting card and handing it to the guard. The latthr, glancing at it, turned to the marshal, and said: "It • is no use; you cannot reason with • Itini; it is that old idiot Potiorok." Truth Costly.
