In the summer of 1850 left San Fran
cisco on a sail vessel formerly from Bal
tmore) for Panama, distance 1900 miles,
and on the entire route, which lasted 4S
days, we never saw sail Loneliness is
no word FOR it, especially When we lay
becalmed in the tropics, with our vessel
floating as helplessly about as a chip on
mill pond, the ground swell keeping up
the monotonous roll of the vessel from
side to side all day and night and day
after day, each roll being accompanied
by flap Of the sails and a creaking OF
the rigging that might have passed for
the flap of the wings and tho wall Of lost
spirits.
When we read about Noah and his ark,
we are apt to think that he must have
had rather a lonely time, but then he
was out only 40 days, aud besides, with
all the animals ETC., on board, he had
plenty to occupy his time and attention,
and il he wanted amusement to while
away the time he had only to start a
sparring match between his monkeys
and parrots. True, there is no report of
any such proceeding on his part, but
that Is doubtless because there was nc
modern newspaper reporter on board.

Nearly all the grains now IN uys are Of
unknown antiquity. Wheat Was culd-
waited in all laiitudos as Ear b. .ck in the
past as we have authentic knowledge.
Barley is Thought TO baves1riginated in
the Caucasus, but It. w9s known aud
used everywhere ip the most ancient
times. Oats, like rye, were unknown in
ancient india aud Egypt and among the
Hebrews. The Greeks and Romans re-
ceived it from the north of Europe. Had
there been an early civilization on this
continent the wild oats found here and
there wonld probably have developed
into the useful cereal now consideredab
solutoly essential to the proper nourish-
ment of horses. This continent is cred
tied with having given Indian corn to
the old world, but this useful cereal was
doubtless known in India and China
many hundred years before Che discov-
cry Of America,
Cotton was used for making garments
in India AZ date so remote that it can
not even be guessed at. The fact is men
toned by Aristotle. The first seeds were
brought to this country in 1921. In 1886
the culture is mentioned in the records
Of South Carolina In 1875 the culture
was general along the eastern coast o!
Maryland, and in 177G we heard Of it as
far north rs Cape May. The use of flax
for making clothing is nearly as ancient
as that Of cotton and perhaps more SO
plants of SOFT and flexible fiber having
been without doubt among the first veg
etable productions of the ancient world
and their practical value discovered soon
after the invention Of weaving. San

Professor Blaclde was lecturing to a

Of Kisses, and by it his voice was over

and went down to the student he had
unwittingly hurt and put his arm around
the lads shoulders and drew him close,
and the lad leaned against his breast.
