The Sacred Be Tree Pound In the City
 of Anarodh apara. CeyIoa.

The Sacred No Tree Found In the City
 of Asaredhapara. CeyIoa.
 We reach the upperInost of three successive terraces of masonry, which is crowned by the multiple trunk of a venerable tree. The several divisions of this tree arc feeble. gnaried and bent The leaves lack the fresh yer dancy of vigorous growth and plainly show the yellowish pailor of decrep- itude. The soil that nourishes its roots Is well nigh saturated with the oil of its anointment; yet bent with age. this patriarch spreads its protecting arIns over the jaded devotees while they de posit beneath it and around it their offerings of eocoanut oil, palm blossom. champae flowers and the bloom of the temple tree (frangipani.
 Then their eager gaze ls turned up ward to the branches; they crave . single leaf. but none would dare pluck It from the tree; it must fall in full maturity to yield its maximum of merit A passing breeze sways the branches; the leaves rustic; the watchers gaze more expectantly; a withered member is separated from it's branch and comes sailing down
 There Is no whoop of exultation, no triiiing smile; bot instead, a deter mined sally, pious scramble. e col lision of realous hands and heads, and the solitary leaf Is borne away in the happy bosom of the successful compe- titor The prizes were few and the competitors were many, so could only hope to secure one by remaining till the pilgrims. at nightfall. had turned their steps boneward; but even then robed priests remained to guard this holy of holies.

Fortified Trees.

Louisiana and Ohio are noted locali- ties for petrified trees. In the former state, several years ago. in turning up the ground an ancient forest was un- earthed. and in succession two others below the first. Scientists. judging from the state of the trees. say that at least 50.000 years elapsed between the growth of the first and the last forest In some parts of the island of Antiqua, one of the British leeward group, there are some remarkable examples of stone forests In Van Dieman's Land similar forests are known 10 exist. Some of these are only psrtly siiicifed, while others are changed to chalcedony hard enough to cut glass. St. Louis Re- public

rb. U.eful Coco.uut sh.ll.

The cocoanut shell. after being dried and scraped, forms the Indian hookah, which is used by all classes for smoking tobacco. In Malaysia. the shell. under the name of parut, is used for chil- dren's games. It is taken between the two feet and sent as far backward as possible by twist of the foot. The cocoanut shell also furnishes drinking soblets, which carved exteriorly and mounted in silver are great orna- iaent. Small articles, as baskets, ladies. spoons and other such domestic articles. are made of it Beads for rosaries are also turned from the shell. --Chambers' Journal.

When. Firefiie. Are Made Useful.

Frefies have been put and are even to this day applied to some curious uses. In San Domingo and other West India islands they are employed for lighting purposes, being confined in lanterns, both for going about the country at night and for the illumina- tion of dwellings. By attaching one of them to each foot while travelling in the darkness they serve as guide to the path.
 They are also utilized in Cuba and elsewhere for ornaments, wherewith the gowns and cultures of ladies are adorned on festive occasions. One can read by the light which few of these insects give. One point that may be urged in behalf of these firefiies is that they kill mosquitoes, finding in the lat ter their favorite prey.-Washington Star

Tho Fir,t saddles.

Originally the rider rode his horse bareback, but in the course of time various coverings, made of leather, were brought into use. The coverings eventually hung down on both sides of the horse, were of very costly material, and were beautifully adorned. Apuleius called these coverings fucata ephippia, and Virgil, on several occasions, makes mention of their expensive character. Detroit Free Press.

A High wind symposaum m Wnteh the
 Ffrss story Tsiiers Had No chAsos-
 "I guess We will have a storm to- night" observed Hornaday, coming into the cabin on the mountain side and glancing casually out of the open door at the clouds rapidly rolling up in the northwest
 ''Wouldn't be s'prized n bit if we did, podner," commented the host. We sometimes has right peart storms up hyar."
 Wind, I supposer asked Callioott.
 'sYas booty muchly wind. An when 1t do blow 1t passes the bill right over the presidents veto, podner. you bet. .
 Blows pretty hard in Arizona, said Hornaday. feeling called upon for a specimen. Eve seen the thinnest sort of sage brush twigs driven three feet deep into granite powders by the sheer force of the wind-n
 "Yes, they say the breeze Is pretty fresh in Arifona," commented Calli- cott, ''but, land O Goshen, it can't touch the northwest Why, I've seen every drop of water blown clear out of a river bod for miles at time and run ming along in solid mass on the top of the oppnite bank, forced up there and held by the pressure of the gale"
 Here she coinesm cried the old hunter, as the storm broke over the cabin and the wind rushed by like a fieIid, internal. stirieking and scream ing horribly. How fast does you gents 'spose them winds of yourn uster blow on workin dnysr
 Well" yelled Hornaday, to be heard above the bowling tornado, the signal service in Arizoua reported it as about 150 miles an hour"
 Up there in the northwest, r clipped in Callicott, at the top of his lungs, ''the wind has been estimated al i90 miles an hour and upward"
 ''Humph," contemptuously put in the old mountsineer. do you gents call that blowinf You just wait shake or two and I'll sire up this here zephyr that's anusin itself outside. IL commenced blowin whenF"
 Just fifteen minutes ago by my chronoIneter, 7" replied Hornaday.
 The old fellow hurried to the door.
 Come here" he called, opening small peephole as he spoke, through which the storm rushed madly with a whistle like a steam engine. Shifting at the air once or twice he said: ''i thought so. What dyer smell, gentsT
 "Phewl Something rotten-skunki" gagged Callicott, holding his nose.
 Hamburger cheese!" calculated Hornaday.
 Right, my bully buck Right you arel That's Linburger cheese you smells. Fifteen minutes ago that wind blew through the front door of Pete Gashwiler's saloon in Bobville, right across the free lunch counter"
 'Wellf' interrogated the two hunt CTS.
 'sBobville's just agzactly 279 miles from where you're standing this here identickle minute"
 Then silence reigned supreme inside, while the breeze from Bobville contin- ued its iaunt Commercial Gazette.

The tardy justice lone to women in
the passing of the women's property act
in England and America was the direct
outgrowth of the wages system. The
fact hat woman had no right in her
earnings, inherited property, or even in
her personal belongings, until recent
years, took away all stimulus to active
money making effort. Driven to it by
the failure of husband or father to pro-
vide for her wants, she could not hold
any possession from the grasp of the
selfish, cruel, tyrannical or degraded
male relative who possessed legal power
over her. The. change in these serflike
conditions has all occurred within the
past fifty years, and it is marvellous

BOYS

"waAted-a boy" How often we
These very common words may see!
Wanted-a boy to errands run,
Wanted for everything under the sun.
AL that the men today can do,
Tomorrow the boys will be doing, too;
For the time is coming when
The boys must stand in place OF men.
WRnted-the world wants boys today,
And she offers them all she has for pay
Honor, wealth, position, fame,
A useful life mt a deathless name.
Boys to shape the paths for men.
Boys to guide the pillow and pen.
Boys to forward the tasks begun,
For the worlds great task is never done.
The world is anxious to employ
Not Just one, but every boy
Whose heart and brains will e'er be true
To work his hands shall And to do.
Honest, faithful, earnest, kind;
To good awake, to evil blind;
Heart Of gold without alloy,
w~anted-the world wants such a boy.

form declaring more pointedly and
emphatically for tariff reform than
aid either OF the platforms on which
Cleveland made two campaigns. I'll
den's letter accepting the nomination
in 1876 as vigorously affirmed the cor
rectness of the principle of q tariff for
revenue only as did Cleveland's elev-
enth-hour message in 1887.
The mugwumps are both forgetful
and short-sighted. The doctrine Of u
tariff Tor revenue only was cardinal
principle of democracy before Cleye-
land was dreamed of for the presiden-
cy 1t will remain an impsrisnable
article Of the true democratic faith
long after Mr.. Gle yeland and the mug
wumps have passed away Without
disparaging the ex-President's prom
inencc in this connection, it is foolish
to speak of him as the only living ex-
ponent OF this great principle. There
are many men in the democtatic party
who became conspicuous by their ad-
vocacy of tariff reform while Mr.
Cleveland was young lawyer in Buff
falo. The democratic party is not a
Ione-lnan party.
