Hop aiessness of the Cracker"
lCentury.l

Jne clever, original manufacturer for
five years devoted head, heart and purse
to amehorate the condition of his oper-
atives-the worst class in the commun-
ity. They had no homes; he bought and
built houses, which fell to pieces through
neglect OF were burned up in orgies.
When their dwellings, were again re-
paired the crackers felt out of place in a
setting of order and neatness, and "jes
to make things sorter homeike," as was
afterward naively explained, they kick
ed out the panels of the doors, smashed
the windows, riddled- the walls and cu
up the floors for kinding wood.
With driftwood for fuel lying almost
at their gates, if they have a gate,
rather than walk to and from the fence,
if they have fence, the proletarian in
habitants prefer to destroy their land
lords property. An attempt to utilize
their horticultural instincts was unayail-
ing. The gardens were fenced. the ten
ants burned the planks; the plats were
plowed, not seed was planted, and
when, undiscouraged, the employer
planted the gardens himself, the people
turned in the hogs with the comment,
'Bacon's better than garden sass any
day."

sir Cupid once, as I have heard.
Determined to discover
What kind of q man q maid preferred
Selecting for lover.
So. putting on a soldiers coat,
He talked Of martial glory;
And from tho way he talked, they say,
She seemed to hke-the storyI
Then, with a smile sedate and grim.
He changed his style and station;
In shovel hat and CATERS trim
He made his visitation.
He talked of this discoursedo on that,
OF Palestine and HermOn;
And from the way he preached, they say,
She seemed to hke-the sermoni
Then changed again, he came to her
A roaring, rafting sailor;
He cried, ''Ho, hol love You sor'
And vowed he'd'neyer fail her,
He talked of star and. compass true.
The glories of theacean,
And from the way hasang, they-say.
She seemed to hke--the notioni
Then Cupid, puzzled in his mind.
Discarded his disgufses.
That you no preference seem to find
My fancy much surprises
why sop she cried, with roeuish, smile.

Has the wheat found in the catacombs
Of Egypt ever been known to terminate?
A great many cases are known in
which the catacombs or mummy
wheat" has sprouted and produced its
kind. The first experiment was made
by the famous Wilkinson about 1910,
who planted number of grains taken
from tomb believed to be nearly 1000
years old. The grains terminated, the
stools producing from fifteen to twenty
stalks. The ears were of remarkable
size, some Of them exceeding six inches
in length.
The quality of the wheat produced
was about equal to that known at pres
emit as Egyptian. The extreme dryness
of the Egyptian climate no doubt con-
tributed to the preservation of vitality
in the grains, but even with this favor
ing circumstance tho immense length
of time during which the grains retained
their terminating power renders the cir
cumStance very remarkable
