d" Gle Us a Lead"

Dean Hole, in his recent book, "More
Memories" tells an amusing story of
how an old woman got the better of her
clergyman in an argument. The vii
lagc churchyard was overcrowded, ex-
cept on it's sunless northern side, in
which the suicide was buried. One day
the vicar, while visiting poor old wom-
an who was nigh unto death, thought
he would try to get her consent to be
buried in the roomy northern plot. He
began by assuring her that the com
mon aversion to burial in any particu-
lar portion of consecrated ground was
silly prejudice and foolish supersti-
ton. Then he besought her, as a per-
sonal favor to himself, and as an exam
pie to others, to permit her body to be
buried in the northern plot of the
churchyard. The old woman thought
it all over for few minutes, and then
answered. "Well, sir, as you seem to
think one part of the churchyard is
as good as another, and that it makes
no difference where we be put, perhaps
you'll gle us lead" The vicar did not
grasp the argument-but he changed
the subject,

VALUE OF vAoolNArlNe LAND.
Clearly Proved by Experiments Made In
Franco and Gernapv

CIonrly Proved by Experiments nIade In
franco and Germany.
One OF the strangest things in recent
science has to do with the "vaccina-
ton" of land, says the Rochester Times.
Everyone knows that it enriches, in
stead of impoverishing, field to plant
1t occasionally with u leguminous crop,
such as clover or lucerne, the roots of
which have u power of absorbing and
retaining more nitrogen than they take
from the ground. But where the nitro
gen comes from is another matter. The
air suggested itself ut once when people
began to study the problem, and Messrs.
Lawes and Gilbert, among others,
spent many months in fruitless en-
beavers to trace the source to the air,
coming ut last to negative conclusion.
The discovery was eventually made by
Herren Hcllriegel and Willfarth, of
Germany, that the absorption was due
to minute organisms 10 sort of disease)
In the ROOTS, which, when the supply Of
nitrogen in the soil began to fail, ap.
peared in the form of small excres-
cences, drew nitrogen from the air
and SO caused tho enrichment. When
this had once been seetled it became @
matter of Importance to foster, and, If
possible, hasten the growth of the dis
ease in the fields sown with legumin-
ousae, and extensive experiments have
been made during the last few years in
France and Germany with this object.
Fields have been literally "vaocinated"
by spilsing over them. soil in which
tuberculous crops have grown, or even
water in which they have been soaked.
In, 1890 tract Of old peaty land was
sown with clover and vaccinated with
about one and n-half tons to the acre Of
an old clover field. Scarcely any other
manure ut all was used A more con-
vincing experiment still was performed
in Prussia, where large field was
sown with lupins and divided, one part
being treated in the ordinary fashion,
the other inoculated from an old lupin
crop. The yield in the latter part was
five and a-half times as great as in that
under the normal treatment. A re-
marlSable point in these operations is
that each variety of the leguminousae
has its characteristic microbe, and that
it is no use inoculating field of clover,
for instance, with lucerne, or of lupin
with clover

DAMAGE BY LIGHTNING.
Is Increasing Mt a Startling Ratio Both {
Homo and Abroad.

Is Increasing Mt a Startling Rate Both at
Homo and Abroad.
Statistics prove beyond question that
damage by lightning is increasing at n
startling rate both in America and
abroad. Scientists are divided in opin-
ion as to the cause of this phenomenon,
some holding with much plausibility
that it is due to the vast quantity Of
artificially produced electricity en-
ployed for lighting and other purposes,
which establishes IL connection with the
reservoirs of the fluid ir the atmos-
phere. Others hold that the cutting
down of forests and altering tho natural
balance of 'air currents is to blame.
Others, again, assert that the trouble
lies in the immense amount of coal ash
and other finely divided solid matter
suspended in the air from burning coal,
which, saturated with atmospheric
moisture, serves as u good conductor.
The number of fires actually known to
have been caused by lightning has been
quadrupled in twenty years, while
deaths from this source have increased
in alarming proportion during q single
decade. The attention of savants and
electrical engineers has been called to
the subject, and various propositions
looking to some means of averting the
danger to life and property have been
made, but thus far none appear to be
of practical value.

Some years after Napoleon Ill was
seated on the throne of France, an
American gentleman was introduced at
court, and after the emperor had
greeted him the visitor began to talk
in a very familiar way. At first Ma

Pardon me-" he said, coldly, 'iyou
talk as II we were old friends" "NoA
friends, perhaps; but certainly 90

THE MODERN WOMAN.

Too MUCH use of the opera glass is
one reason SO many city women of
fashion have bad eyes and must deform
themselves with cyeglasses-so says On
oculist.
Mrs. GEORGE W. CABLE, the wife of
the novelist, is one of the most beauti-
full women seen in literary circles.
She has forget-me-not blue eyes, an
oval face, perfectly regular features
and complexion like white rose leaf
all this though her hair is white and
her Oldest daughter just married.
"THE greatest boon fashion has
given us this great WHILE" said a wom-
IN who loves style and hates dirt, and
has, consequently, been torn with con-
ficting emotions ever since long skirts
came back on us, sis wire in dress
skirts. When the bottom of skirt is
wired it makes it possible to hold it up
SO that it will not drag in one place
while you are showing your carriers in
another"
DIR. JOHN WooD, archaeologist and
student of art, says the modern wom-
ans figure differs decidedly from the
typical woman of Greek art and not al
together for the worse. She, the mod
ern Caucasian woman, has more taper
ing limbs, that is, smaller wrists and
ankles, and, strange to say, deeper,
finer chest. In carriage, too, the mod
ern ideal is for moro erect position
and fnttcr back.
