The Listener has often encountered
the expression, cone may hear the
grass grow now" but he never actually
did hear the grass grow until the other
night. To forestall sleeplessness he has
q habit Of starting out in the evening
for a brisk walk stick in hand and dog
at his heels. Passing the other evening
along grassy wayside, which was lined
across the wall, with row of button
wood trees, he heard, two or three
times, peculiar cracking sound, that
was very much like the falling of drops
of rain upon dry leaves. But as the sky
was perfectly clear, the sound could not
be rain; and as there was not a breath
of air stirring it could not be wind. Nor
could it be the Jumping of insects, for
it was quite too early in the season for
them. The queer cracking continued.
Presently the Listener stopped and lis
tened more intently, and he satisfied
himself, by a sufficient examination, and
by a comparison with other places in
the neighborhood, that the cracking
was made by the pushing up of the
growing grass upoa thin, continuous
covering of dry buttonwood leaves that
overspread it. These leaves constituted
almost a carpet over Q thick mass OF
grass; and the grass, in hitting this COW
ering, cracked it here and there. 1t was
the leaves and lot the grass, TO be sure,
that the Listener heard, but it was the
growing of the grass that made them
crackle so that he may truly say hen--
after, that he heard the grass grQw,-

to do in making people prefer honey IN

likcned everything excellent ito honey

poet. from Virgil to Whittier have sung
its praises. The persons who see nico
piece of comb honey Oh the table begin
to thiak of the pa sages n the Olble
about it and to associate it with the
most industrious of inscc and the love-
lest of the flowers There IS charm

The Uses of Castor Oil.

The average boy has an idea that cas-
tor oil was got up for the torture of all
kids who have careful mothers to pro-
tect them from the fell destroyer. He
is mistaken, like a majority of grown
people who only regard castor oil as
medicine. Only very small proper
ton of it is consumed in that manner.
Castor oil forms one of tho best lubri-
Gators, and is used for greasing wagons
and other purposes where the price does
not prohibit it. Then it is burned as
an illumination, not only by the He bre wa
for their Sabbath lamp, but elsewhere.
In India, where large quantities of the
seed are raised, the oil Is added to the
native condiments to flavor them. It is
also made into an Illuminating gas in
India In this country castor oil is used
TO dress morocco leather. California.
Kansas, Iowa and Illinois are the prin-
opal sections of this country where the
seed is raised, and the castor oil presses
at BelIeville, Ind, are among the most
extensive IN the world, "s-LGlObe Demo

Extracted Honey.

When q machine was invented for
throwing the pure liquid honey from
the cells whore it had been placed and
sealed up by bees apiarians supposed that
their business would become very nrofit-
able. The comb from which the honey
was taken could be returned to the hive.
filled and emptied several times during
the season of flowers. As result of
this arrangement bees would be required
to devote but small proportion of their
time and talent to securing wax and
constructing cells in which to store
honey. Having made comb enough to
fill hive they could settle down to the
business Of securing honey and not have
their occupation intcrfered with. Bee
keepers stated what was true, that OK
tracted honey was worth much more to
the consumer than honey in comb. No
one wanted to eat beeswax, and there
was no propriety in placing it OF the
table. 1t was costly to buy and was
generally thrown away by most families.
The transportation OF comb honey was
expensive and much of it was lost. Elk
tracted honey could be put in wood,
earthen, metal, or glass packages and
transported without danger of loss and
at very small cost.
For time extracted honey sold we'll
and bee-keepers who used the machine
for taking it from the comb prospored.
The effect of this prosperity was to
induce many to engage in the produc-
ton of honey. Soon there were reports
that much of the So called extracted
honey was adulterated with liquid gIu-
cose, glyccrino and favoring extracts.
Some newspaper writers declared that
many specimens were entirely artificial.
Lies never diminish in size by ''goin Q
the rounds of the papers," but they are
more likely to be believed. Repeated
often enough lie will be likely to take
and keep its place among the things that
everyone believes. 1t is certain that
most persons became FRED iudicel
against extracted honey very soon after
it was placed on the market, aud preju-
dices can not lie destroyed by facts or
reasoning. Though extracted honey
should be worth more pound for pound
than honey sold with the como and
much more than h0asy sold with the
