rh. Greedy Cir, ana IN. r.rn..

A story was recently told to me by q
lady who had just returned from camp.
ing in the Yosemite Valley. A friendly
guide. when asked about the ferns of the
region, answered that he would have to
know her long time before he would be
willing to tell her about the kinds in the
valley, and continued: II know you
don't mean any harm, but there was o
young woman here from the Bay-a great
botanist-and I told her of fern that
only grew in two places, so far as / knew.
in the whole region. Then she was wild
to see it. i told her she might have some
leaves to press in her brown paper books,
but warned her not to pull up any.
Don't you s'pose know better than to
spoil your fern gardenY replied the col.
lege girl. So showed her where the
stuff grew-one place where the most Of
it was, under some dry brush had put
there-and made her promise again not
to tell anyone, and not to pull it up.
said to her: sIguess there amt but two
clumps of it in the Yosemite, and my
idea is it ought to stay here. Itwould be
kind Of murder to drive it out Then
she looked real pretty, and said she en-.
tirely agreed with me. It might be o
new species, she remarked, and it might
be named after me if I would let it be
taken away, but then l was exactly right,
and it belonged right here.
!, Two or three weeks after that her
camp broke up, and she went up the val,
ley and dug up every root Of the fern
that she could find. Fact saw her
doing it, When went down to camp Ia
tell them goodbye that cussed little hypo.
crite sidled up and begged me to take
good care Of the ferns-speciaIly that
new kindl No, mum. III show you
everything in the line of plants, from the
Merced River to the top of Ell Captain,

She is the girl who takes you off in one
corner and tells you things that you

She is the girl who is anxious to have

are very free and easy, you are uncom-
Portable and wish you were at home.

Just for fun" to smoke cigarette, or
taksa glass Of wine, and you don't know,
and, possibly, she doesn't, that many Of
the sinners of to-day committed their
first sins 4just for fun"
She is the girl who persuades you that
to stay at home and care and love your
own, to help mother and to have your
pleasures at home, and where the home
people can see them, is stupid and tire
some; and that spending the afternoon
walking up and down the street, looking
at the windows and the people is ajust
delightful
She is the girl who persuades you that
slang is witty that loud dress that at
tracts attention is stylish, /" and that
your own simple gowns are dowdy and
undesirable. She dosen't know, nor do
you, how many women have gone to de-
struction because of their love for fine
clothes.
She is the girl who persuades you that
to be on very familiar terms with three
or four young men is an evidence Of
your charms and fascination, instead Of
being, as it is, an outward visible sign Of
your perfect folly.
She is the girl who persuades you that
it is very smart thing to be referred to
as gay girl. She is very, very much
mistaken.
And of all others she is the girl who.
no matter how hard she may try to make
you believe in her, is the girl to be
avoided. Ladies Home Journal.

nation at Rum1eet Simgh's Court.
Ny frat acquaintance with the narra-
tive dates from my boyhood. About the
time Of the occurrence heard it related
by my father, and his authority was the
well known General Avitable, Runjeet
Singh's right hand man, who was present.
Those facts are that a certain "joghee"
(Hindoo anchorite), said to possess the
power of suspending at win and resum-
Ing the animation Of his body, was sent
for by Runjeet Singh, and, declining to
obey, was brought by force into the
tyrant's presence and ordered to give,
under pain Of death, practical proof Of
his supposed power. He submitted per-
force.
he was put by his disciples through
certain processes, during which he be.
came perfectly unconscious; the pulses
ceased, his breath did not stain polished
mirror, and a European doctor, who was
present, declared that the heart had
ceased to beat. To all appearances he
was as dead as Queen Anne. In this
state he was put into carefully made
box, the lid was closed and sealed with
Runjeet Singh's own signet ring.
The box was buried in vault prepared
in an open plot of ground under the royal
windows of Lahore, and the place was
guarded day and night by Runjeet's own
guards under General Avitable's owr,
supervision.
Sun and rain came and grass sprane
up, grew and withered on the surface
over the grave. and the sentries went
their rounds, and the joghee,s disciples
and friends were all kept under careful
surveillsnce, not to call il imprisonment.
After 40 days, in Runjeet Singh's own
presence, the vanlt was uncovered and
the box extracted from it with its seals
intact.
It was opened, and showed the jughee
within precisely as he had been placed.
He was taken out, dead still, to all ap.
pearance, but the body incorrupt. His
disciples were now brought to manipu-
late the body in the manner which he
had taught them and VIII h he had pub
licly explained before his Durial.
He revived. a. he had said he would,
and was soon In as perfect health as
when he had suspended his life. He re-
fused all gifts and retired to his former
retreat, but shortly afterward he and his
disciples disappeared. It was not safe
