A Great Day in HistorH

Even before the death of Lord Bea-
constield the 10th of April was day to
be remembered in the history. both of
England and Of the world. The origin
of the name of Protestant is due as
every one knows. to the famous protest
of that day. in 1929, againsta decree of
the diet of Spires. Another series of
events, of a widely different but scarcely
less important character. were to date
from the 10Th of April, 1775, when the
! first shot was fired sint the American
Revolutionary war at Lexington The
day has also been illustrated by the
death of several notable personages--
e. e., of Byron (Of whom Disraeifs
'.Lord Cadurcis" is perhaps the most
appreciative sketch ever conceived) in
1924; of Christian of Sweden, 1859; of
Melanchthon, 1860. Nor should Thomas
Sackville,i Earl of Dorset and Lord
Treasurer of England, be forgotten.
Like Lord, BeaeOnstield,, he first dis
tinguished himself land in youth) as an
author; was elected a member of the
House of Commons; was raised to the
peerage; became the first Minister of
a great Queen, and died on the 10th of
April Q60S). The prayer book further
reminds us that the day is sacred to the
memory of st. Alphege. Archbishop of
Canterbury, murdered by the Danes in
1912, after the capture of the metro
pohtan city. 1t was on the Saturday
after Easter, the Central calendar
having fallen on the SINE day in 1912
as in 1884. The Danes. "who had

G. Flowing Corn.

There may be beneficial effects from
root-pruning Of fruit trees, but we are
far from believing there is any advan-
tage to coin by such a process. And
yet some claim it But those who do
not claim the good results contend that
blowing deeply close along bv the hill
after the roots have spread widely, does
not injure it by cutting off the roots.
Various experiments have beer made
in root-pruning of corn, both b. deep
blowing it when it is five or six feet
high. and by sticking down a spade six
or eight inches all around from the
corn, and that many inches deep.
Profs. Sturtevaut and M'Bryde have
both experimental on this root-p run-
ing. bnt claim that long series of
wears and careful experiments would
be required for fnality ON the sub

There is no doubt where the plow

greatly injured in growth. The

as near as possible, and keep the
surface mellow. If the season be too

90 The prsponderance of widows over
widowers in England is often remarked.
The Gems rs returns show this to be I'M
mistakably the case. There were in
1881 close upon 1,O0O,0O widows in
England and Wales. the number of
.widowers being less than half as many.
OF these 1000, 900 widows $1,000 were
under thirty-tive years of age. In Ire
land and Scotland the number of wild
ows was in each case three times that
of the widowers.
The annual crop of human hair
bought and sold amounts to fully 100
tons. Four ounces is an average clip
ping from human head; so that 100
tons represent the product of from &c.,
600 to 1000. 900 heads. In Europe the
heads of female criminals are shorn,
and they supply a large market but
the greater part Is bought by travelling
peddlers. Between the ages of fifteen
and forty woman can grow about sew
en- crops of hair.-Boston Herald.
The rate of fire destruction in the
United States is steadily increasing.
Eight or nine years ago it was about
$40, 0OO,0 900 year, or 81. 200, 900, 900 in
fifteen years. Now it is $l0O, 900, 900
n year, or S1.OoO,OO0,0OO in only ten
years. Let this rate continue, and at
the end of fifty or sixty years more the
annual fire waste will not be less than
$1,000, 100000, which would be more
than the net profits of the entire indus
tries of the country. Chicago Herald.

modern French town with its streets,
large warehouses, colonades, and gay
shop windows. This is modern Algiers !;
and it lies along the borders of the sea
for a distance Of two miles or more, and
on the rising hillsides. three or four
blocks upwards. High above the
French building. and directly back u
them, rises what is left of the old Arab
city. The houses, white as an advanced

leads to the Kasha, or port, that surmoun
