Famous Dropping willows.

In the early part of the year 1913 New
Bedford whaling bark touched at ST. Hell
ena on her passage home. While visiting
Napoleon's tomb the captain cut a small
branch from a dropping willow growing
directly above it. When he arrived in New
Bedford the branch had budded into a
small tree and was growing in large cask.
Captain Obed Baker Of West Dennis, long
since retired from active service to enjoy
his immense wealth, secured slip of the
tree measuring Is inches in length and
about two inches in circumference. He di-
vided the stick into three pieces and with
watchful care succeeded in sprouting them
Today the lawn in front of his beautiful
residence is adorned with three magnificent
willows, with trunks averaging nine feet in
and rising fully 40 feet in the
air. There are scattered about the lawn a
number of smaller ones, ofTshoots from the

A Question of Duty.

A curious question in ethics is suggested
by an incident which occurred recently in
Bavaria An officer of justice-in that ro-
mantle country there is nothing so prosaic
as policeman-wase scorting a prisoner to
the place of detention, and as their path
lay beside the river the charms of the
beautiful blue Danube proved too much for
the gentleman in custody, and springing on
one of the great cakes of ice floating down
the stream he speedily waltzed to the oppo-
site bank. The officer of justice followed
him, as in duty bound, but his terpsicho-
rean efforts were less successful, and he
fell into the river.
His late prisoner was evidently man of
fine feelings, whatever his offense against
the government may have been, and plung-
ing once more into the river he saved the
officials life at the risk of his own from the
second exposure to the icy water. Then the
representative of law and order had nice
question to settle and settled it by giving
his liberty and couple Of marks to his
prisoner thus proving that he considered
gratitude as more important than official
duty. Was he right9-Boston Advertiser.

The Kimberley Kafiirs are extremely fond
of cigars, but they smoke with the lighted
end in their mouths. When this popularity
was first mentioned to me, supposed that
my informant was cracking "a somewhat
vacuous joke, but to my amazement saw
numerous instances of the reality in the
compound. The native first lighted his
cigar by the ordinary method, then turning
it round he deity arranged the hot, glow
ing end in his mouth, and tucking away
his tongue in his cheek proceeded to inspire
and expire the fumes, gradually consuming
the whole of the cigar. The smokers as
sured me that the process was warm, COM
forting, delicious and far superior to the
usual mode. On subsequent trial l found
that the knack is less difficult to acquire
than might be approximation.

TRUTH AND BEAUTY.

had a friend who lived for Truth,
Who sought it east, who sought it west.
In city streets and lonely haunts,
And died unprospered in the quest.
Another who for Beauty lived,
For Beauty bartered all beside,
And In the evening OF his days
For Beauty, as was fit, he died.
And many time between them both
Contention on the point was long.
One Truths brave knight In veal and woe
The other Beauty's champion strong.

A European dentist is said to have had
great success in curing toothache within

Breaks the gold in the gray

A crescent moon there grows.

The peace of the evening hath bound me
