THE COCO DE MER.
A Palm Which Possesses Almost Animal
Vitality.


There seems to be an almost animal
vitality about the plant, and the mode
in which it Is connected with the par
ent nut and absorbs nutriment there
from bears a strong analogy to arrange
ments in animal life.
A strong distinction between the
sexes tends to aid the illusion. if iliu-
sion it be. The male tree is tall and
stately, rising often to a height of a
hundred feet and producing huge
spathes which contain the fertilizing ell
ement. The female is generally twenty
or thirty feet less in height, but
with more spreading plumage of
fronds, and will produce, in suitable
conditions, perhaps hundred nuts in
year; and she comes to bear fruit in
her ninth wear, and often earlier. and
the days of her years range closely
with the scriptural span allotted to
mankind.
Yet the value of the coco de mer to
the jewellers in its native isles is not so
much for the double nut, which, what
ever it's medicinal value, is not good
eating. nor is the oil extracted from it
equal to that of the ordinary cocoanut.
Bat the grand LEAKAGE of the palm forms
the ridging of the native huts-a hun
dred leaves win make a whole house,
and single leaf makes hencoop, as
may be seen in the drawings of the late
Miss Marianne North at her gallery in
the Gardens. The down of the young
foliage forms good stuffing for pillows.
mattresses. etc, and the leaf ribs are
made into baskets and brooms-to such
humble uses has the royal family of
palms descended in its latter days-All
the Year Round.

THE LOCALITIES OF BIRDS.

ErEa

Soutin0 of the Lives Led by Our Feath-
cred Friends.
All our permanent residents among
the birds, both large and small, are
comparatively limited in their ranges
The crow is nearly as local as the wood
chuck. He goes further from home in
the quest of food, but his territory is
well defined, both winter and summer.
His place of roosting remains the same
year after year. Once, while spending
a few days at mountain lake nearly
surrounded by deep woods, my atten-
ton was attracted each night, just at
shutdown, by an osprey that always
came from the same direction. dipped
into the lake as he passed over it for a
sip of its pure water, and disappeared
IN TIE woods beyond. The routine of
his life was probably as marked as
that of any of ours He fished the
waters of the Delaware all day,
probably never going beyond . certain
limit. and re...ylc,i each night at sun
down, as punctually as a day-laborer,
TO his retreat in the forest The sip of
water, too, from the lake he never
failed to take.
All the facts we possess in regard to
the habits of the song-birds in this re-
spect point to the conclusion that the
same individuals return to the same To-
calities year after year, to nest and 10
rear their young. / am convinced that
the same woodpeelSer occupies the
same cavity in a tree winter after
winter and drums upon the same dry
limb spring after spring. / like To
think of all these creatures as capable
of local attachments, and not insensible
to the sentiment of home.-JOhn Bur

A NECESSARY CONSTITUENT.
Common Salt Plays an Important Part In
the Human system.

Common Salt Plays an Important Part In
the Human system.
Sodium Chord, or common salt. is a
necessity of animal life. Wild animals
of the herbivorous class make regular
excursions of many miles to salt
licks.' or other places where it
abounds.
The human body contains salt in
large proportion. The blood tastes of
it, and in greater or less quantities it is
found in all the many fluids and juices
manufactured by the various glands of
the body.
That its presence is not accidental
but designed is shown by the study of
some of the essential factors of the or
ganism when deprived of it. Recent
experiments have proved that the
white corpuscles of the blood swell and
burst quickly in distilled water. Pro
toplasm is inactive, and the ella, or
fringe-like edges of certain cells, stop
their motion when deprived of sodium
Chord; while in a salt solution they
remain active and intact.
1t is stated that by the passage of salt
through the body the absorption of food
is stimulated, and the issue of tissue
changes and growth is increased.
1t is matter of common observation
that the swallowing of salt produces
thirst, which is but saying that certain
organs are stimulated to activity there
by, and consequently demand more
fluid in order to continue their normal
activity.
Many children doubtless suffer from
an insufficient supply of common salt
especially when artificial foods are used.
Such children are often weak and poor
ly nourished. Their digestion proceeds
slowly, absorption of digested products
is delayed, and they become emaciated.
The doctor is called, and with the order
to add "a pinch of salt to the milk or
other prepared food, the appetite i'm
proves, the digestion is stimulated and
a proper condition of nourishment re-
turns.
1t is more than probable that the
chlorine element of the hydrochloric
acid of the gastric juice is supplied by
this salt. In this fact persons who live
largely on a vegetable diet may find
reason for "A weak digestion and INSULT
cient acidity, for the mineral matter
found in vegetables consists, for the
most part, of potash salts, which do not
satisfy the demands of the animal
organism.
The water of mineral springs is
chilly efficacious in that it supplies both
salt and water to the blood in increased
quantity. The salt tends to increase
tissue-chan0es, and the greater supply
of water hastens the eXcretion of the
waste products which are thereby
generated--Youth's Companion.

SILK CULTURE IN GEORGIA.
Prominent Industry of the South in
Colonial Times.

A Prominent Industry of the south In
Colonial Times.
The most distinctive industry of the
Salzburgers was the culture of the
silk-worm and the weaving of silk.
Even as far north as Virginia much
care was bestowed on silk. Gen. Ogle-
thorpe shared in this general enthusi-
asm, and encouraged the industry
among the colonists. As far back as
1888 the trustees of the province in
duced Nicolas Awaits, of Piedmont. to
reAlove to Georgia. Besides his family,
Awaits took with him his servant,
Jacques Camuse, for the special purpose
of rearing silk-worms and manufactur-
ing silk. In 1876 the Salzburger
pastor, Rev Mr.. Bolzius. led in
introducing the industry among
his people. In 1912 five hundred null
berry trees were sent to Ebenezer. and
a machine was erected for preparing
the silk. BY the year 1850 nearly all
the English had abandoned the silk in
dustry. But the Salzburgers perse-
vered. and in 1851 they sent over to En-
gland one thousand pounds of cocoons
and seventy-four pounds of raw silk,
which brought them a return of one
hundred and ten pounds sterling. The
trustees of the province encouraged the
industry by giving TO each female who
should learn the art of spinning a reel
ing machine and two pounds sterling in
money.
Ali about the old church at the pres
emit Ebenezer there are still mulberry
trees, no doubt the neglected descend
ants of the original planting a century
and a half ago. Indeed, the present
Salzburgers have not quite given up
the working in silk. ] stopped at the
home of a venerable couple where saw
the plain and well-worn spinning-reels
used for this purpose. There is. how
ever, no longer any weaving of silk in
all the region. The only article manu-
featured is fishing lines These are of
the finest and strongest quality, and are
in great demand in Savannah.
Some of the silk goods manufactured
by Oglethorpe's colonists command a
high price in the markets of the Old
World. The queen OF England on one
occasion surprised her guests BY wear
ing a dress made entirely of the silk
woven by the Georgia weavers--Rev.
John Z. Hurst, in Harper's Magazine.

WHY THE HAIR FALLS OUT.
Extract From Lecture by DIR. j. II. Kel-
Iogg. of the Battle Creek SanitarInm.

Extract From Lecture by DIR. j. II. KeI-
Iogg, of the Battle Creek Sanitarium.
The best means to prevent the hair
from falling out is to keep it cut short.
The roots of the hair of every human
being are capable of sustaining a GER
tain length or weight of hair. 4 lady
who is able to grow hair which will
touch the floor must have very large
and strong roots TO her hair. When a
hair gets so long that its weight is too
great for the root to hold il in its little
pocket then it falls out
Another and perhaps more common
reason why the hair falls out is that
the scalp becomes unhealthy, either
from parasites which grow down in
these little pockets. which produce a
parasitic disease, or from an unhealthy
condition of the circulation of the scalp.
When people have bald heads the scalp
is shiny and hard as rule. Place your
finger upon it and you viii find that
the scalp is firm, rigid and adherent to
the bone. To prevent increased bald
ness or to restore the hair if the hair
folicles are not destroyed, this
condition must be overcome and
the best way to do it is to
stimulate the circulation by massage.
Place the hands firmly upon the scalp
and then move it IN such way that
the fingers do not slip upon the skin.
BY moving the whole skin its structures
are stimulated, the old waste matter is
carried off and new fresh blood is
brought in. 1t is like stirring the earth
around bush or plant, taking away
the old material and bringing in new
Thus, by increased nutrition, the hair
is strengthened and made to grow more
vigorously.
But you say: Massage causes the
hair to fall out worse" So it does at
first, but the hair which falls out
through the influence of massage would
have fallen out anyway. The roots are
left behind, and the application of mas
sage win develop hair which will not
fall out.-Reported by Helen L. Man
