Growing Walking Sticks.

The cultivation of material for walk
ing sticks is carried on in quite an ex-
tensive scale in some parts of Europe,
and special attention is often paid to
making the roots grow into shapely
forms for handles. While in London last
year went in to manufacturing es-
tablishment, the floor space of which
covers nearly an acre. This concern has
storehouses filed with native and for
eign sticks, from which stock is drawn
as wanted for the shops. The sticks as
they grow are often very crooked and
have to be Strengthened. A heap of sand
is piled on the top of hot stove, into
which the sticks are plunged until they
become pliable. The workman takes the
crooked stick while it is yet hot and
inserts it in notch cut in stout board,
placed at an angle inclined from him,
where he bends and strains it. When it
has become perfectly straight, it is
thrown down to cool, after which it be-
comes rigid and permanent in its lines.
Tho same power which makes crooked
stick straight is applied to make q
straight one crooked. All the various
kinds of sticks that are required to be
curled or twisted are, by the application
of heat, made to assume almost any
shape or form. Louis Globe-Demo-

Forest Air.

There is a general impression that the
humidity Of the air is greater in the
woods than in the open fields. This is
contradicted, however, by the result Of
observations recently made in Germany.
1t was found there that the humidity,
both relative and absolute, was slightly
greater in the open than in the woods.
and this was true equally in the morn
ing and in the afternoon.
As to the temperature of the air
among the trees, it was trifle higher
than in the open in the morning, and in
more marked degree in the afternoon.

CHATS WITH GYPSleS.
A Few Phrases with which 20 Break Down

the Romany Reserve.
The gypsy is generally talltative when
you have broken down the barriers of
reserve. For the benefit of the novice l
will, however, remark that policemen
(prastramengros) and hedgehogs (hotch-
iwichis) are both good subjects for dis
cussion. The gypsy does not break the
law more often than his neighbors, but
policeman, rs the embodiment of all
that is orderly and conventional is an
tipathetic to him. AS for hedgehogs,
they are cooked and eaten by the ROM
any, who are wonderfully clever at
tracking and capturing these very shy
animals. The other day one of my gypsy
friends informed me that as cure for
deafness there was nothing TO equal a
little melted hedgehog's fat applied to
the ear.
The following few words and phrases,
spelled as phonetically as possible, may
be useful to any one paying his first visit
to Romany camp. By adroitly intro
ducing them into his conversation the
visitor may succeed in avoiding that ap-
pearance of inexperience and greenness
which might tempt his hosts to receive
him as an inquisitive gentle rather

ZEBRAS DISAPPEARING.
Civilization in Southern Africa Has Almost
Exterminated Them.


The rapidity with which the differ
ent zebras have been exterminated.
owing to the advance of civilization in
South Africa, is shown by reference to
such works as that of Sir CORVALLIS
Harris, written in 1910, in which the
author tells us that the quagga was at
that time found in ''intermina BILE
herds,' bands of many hundreds being
frequently seen, while he describes
Burchell's zebra as congregating
in herds of eighty or one hun.
dred. and abounding to great
extent; but now, after the expira-
tion of but fifty years. the one species
is extinct or practically SO, while the
other has been driven much further
afeld, and it's mum bers are yearly being
reduced.
This authors description of the com
mon zebra is we'll worth repeating.
Seeking the widest and most seques-
tered spots, the naughty troops are ex
ceedingly difficult toapproach, as well
on account of their watchful habits
and extreme agility and feetneSs of
foot as from the abrupt and inaccessi-
BILE nature of their highland abode.
Under the special charge Of sentinel,
so posted on some adjacent crag as To
command view of every avenue of
approach, the checlSered herd whom
painted skins adorn' is to be viewed
peram bulating some rocky ledge,
on which tho rifle ball alone can
reach them. No sooner has the
note Of alarm been sounded by the
vidette, than, pricking their long ears,
the whole flock hurry forward to ascer-
tain the nature Of the approaching dam
ger, and, having gazed moment at
the advancing hunter, whisking their
brindled tails aloft, helterskelter away
they thunder, down craggy precipices
and over yawning ravines, where no
less agile foot could dare TO follow
them.
OF Burchelfs zebra he says: Fierce,
strong. fleet and surprisingly beauti-
full, there Is, perhaps, no quadruped in
the creation. not even excepting the
mountain zebra, more spleDdidly at
tired or presenting a picture of more
singulsrly attractive beauty" Zsbras
are by no means amiable animals, and
though many stories told Of their fe-
rocity are dou btless much exaggerated.
they have so far not proved themselves
amenable to domesticstion- London
