There are many odd and curious spcci.
lnens of botanical rarities in the Govern
,nent Botanical Gardens at Wash ington.
None, however, attract more attention
than that remarkable Oriental oddly, the
''barber plant" It was not given its
odd name, as some might suppose, be-
cause It's leaves are like razors or its sap
like lather. Neither will its inner bark
make splendid fowls (as Is said OF the
vegetable cloth" tree), or its seeds
make razor.bones. 1t Is simply called
the barber plant because the juices or
either the leaves or fruit applied to fhe
face prevents tho beard from growing.
Mr. DAVIS says that this does not apply
to cases where the beard has taken root,
but that it may be applied with perfect
safety by boys who desire to keep the
hair on their faces from getting a start.
Another oddity pointed out to the in-
terested visitor at the Government gar
dens is the so-called "cruel plant, (which
belongs to the "hy trap" order. This
vegetable Nero kills just for the pleasure
of being a murderer. The leaves of the
cruel plant exude an intoxicating honey,
which regularly attracts flies, bees,
butterflies and other busy little dutterers.
The slightest touch OF these little crea-
tures causes the leaf to close in the rear
fy-trap fashion, squeezing this iatruder
out of all senblsnce OF an insect. AS
soon as death stops the struggles of the
insect and the irritation ceases the leaf
slowly opens, drops the mangled remains
to the floor aud automatically sets itself
for another victim.-St. Louis Republic.

keeps the money and provides his wife

keeps the money and provides his vile
with separ lie allowance.
Quite often It is the poor man wio
marries the rich girl. Then she hands
him her check book. Hs takes it
shamefaced, and flnGs she has put so
much to his credit in the bank. He
manages her affairs, brings her papers
to sign, and to all intents there Is but
one purss between them. There are
no happier marriages than some be-
tween poor men and wealthy girls.
But when the girl is poor and the
man is rich the wife Is afraid that II
she insists upon her money rights she
may not be considered loving and
trusting.
Often among the families of laborers
the man, keeping enough for himself,
hands over the rest of the wages to the
woman, who pays tine bills, and has
little or nothing for herself.
But one OF the happiest homes i
know Is where there is neither riches
nor poverty. The grown up daughter
has an allowance for clothes. lessons
and pleasures. What she saves out of
1t Is hers, and by and by she hopes to
go to Europe on her savings. The sons
are earning, the father still giving
than an allowance until they can be
self supporting. None Of them ''pay
board" at home, but the new picture,
or ma gaZine, or the theatre tickets for
the mother or sister, are their contribu-
tions TO the family happine5s.
Each room In the house has an In
diyidual look, for it bears the marks oi
Its occupants taste. The mother and
wife has her share OF the money, which
is Just rs much as her husbands fo- his
personal expenses. She belongs tc
clubs, helps in charities, dresses prettily
and looks young. Whea at the end OF
a year there is surplus over and above
ali divisions of M. Newcombe's salary,
there ia a family consultation and sout
great pleasure for tie benefit Of all Il.
decided upon, or, by mutual agreement,
the amount is added to that already lait
up for the future.
The conclusion of the whole matter is
those OF family should love ont
another, but each member should have
separate purse.
