Had No Faith in Drc.m.

cdr. d. S. Martin is now living near
Dixon, Ills, in poverty because of his lack
of faith in Dreams" said Herbert f..
Brown, one of party that were discussing
the supernatural. Forty years ago the
good doctor, who did valiant service dur
ing the cholera epidemic in Chicago, was
living with his wife at Galena, Ills. Mrs.
Martin, who was also n practcng ply
stefan, dreamed that at n certain spot n
very rich lead mine was located. She took
her husband and neighbor to the spot
and instructed them exactly how to pro-
coed to reach the treasure Neither of
them had any faith in dreams, and, after
working couple of days with no other re-
suit than blstered hands, gave up the
work, not little ashamed of having I'M
dertaken it. Two years later others took
up the work and discovered the richest
lead mine in all that section. "-St. Louis

Iinnmus md His Love for Flowcr.

When Linn@us first saw an English COM
mon with the gorse in full bloom he burst
into tears and fell OH his knees and thanked
God that he had been permitted to see so
glorious sight. The great naturalist had
a passionate love for flowers, in illustration
OF which feeling pretty incident is re-
corded. When choosing an object with
which to connect his name Linnnus did
not select any of the gorgeous flowers of
the tropics or the grand pine trees of his
native land, but rather frail trailing herb
that rears its tiny pink bells some two or
three inches above the moss and fallen fir
needles in northern forests, and gave it the
name of Linn@a borcalis, by which it is still
known This plant became his badge and
formed the device on his bookplate, with
the motto, expressed in Latin, $50 deep

height of full grown Andamandi seldom

five pounds. They are said to be marvel
ously swift on foot as well as being
possessed with extraordinary powers Of
endurance. The few travellers who occa-
sionally visit the islands avoid contact
with the dwarfs as far ms possible partial
