purporting to come from the arch con-

made by Charles Chappell, of Chicago, to
the effect that he had articulated four

In the first place, Holmes declared that
any medical man who failed TO make a

could do so in many other ways by calling
into play his scientific knowledge. Accept

She Will Study Theology,

The president Of the Mississippi WON
ems Christian Temperance union tells
this story: ''The other day a young
Mississippi woman, one of my workers,
came to me, and in rather an embarrass-
ed way sail: L am going to do some
thing very unusual soon. I am almost
afraid to speak of it yet. Go ahead, 7
answered. 1T is the same old story; you
might as well tell it. You intend to
marry, of course OF course I don't, ;
she retorted, with i'll concealed disgust
at my guessing powers. I am going to
study theology. She really meant it too.
She expects to go to seminary for that
purpose this fall.

Blood and Marriage.

The other day several members of a
family, who were either deaf or dumb,
Or both, came within the writer's cog
nizance, and it was ascertained that ali
were the offspring of first cousins 1t
has long been an established maxim that
first cousins ought not to marry, though
the rule is very often broken. The ques-
ton of the actual anatomical and physi-
illogical causes of physical disabilities
in the offspring of first cousins is we'll
worthy of the most thorough investiga-
ton. But if persons of the same blood
and family, such as first cousins, all OF
whom must necessarily be more Or less
similar in structure and function, marry
each other then their peculiarities will
tend, not to be diminished, but to be
increased, perhaps doubled. If people
would but bear in mind that the union
of persons who have similar defects,
more especially if they are blood rela-
tions, tends to intensity those defects,
exactly as piling coal on bright fire
infallibly produces augmented heat,
they would save themselves much bitter
remorse and avoid the maledictions of a
class of imperfect human beings who
not seldom curse the day they were
born.-London Hospital

Historically, women were the first
to wear trousers, and Strabo, the
Greek historian, dwells at consider
able length upon the effeminacy of
persian men when they adopted the
boomers after conquering the Medes.
Then everybody male and female, ex-
cept the Persians, wore skirts until
some time late in the third or early in
the fourth century, then Roman
mobiles contemplated the adoption of
trousers. In time this came about,
but not without much talk, for the
new costume was considered effemi-
nate in the extreme. To this day the
soldiers of Greece and Scotland wear
skirts, while the women of North
China, Turkey and Syria wear trous-
ers. Some go SO far as to say that
the men saw woman had a good thing,
wanted it, and took it, and that wo-
men are simply coming into their own
again.

The word cocoanut is derived from

The word cocoanut is derived from
the Portuguese 'coco," meaning
monkey, because the base resembles
a monkeys face. The tree was known
to the people of Ceylon as early as
100 B. c., the milk being used by them
for making cement. The cocoanut is
one of the most useful plants; root,
trunk, leaf, sap and nut are made to
yield tribute to man. The fibre of the
husk furnishes excellent yarn, and is
preferred to horsehair for stuffing
beds, cushions, chairs and saddles. 1t
is stronger and more elastic than
hemp.
The Polynesians twist small cords of
this fibre, which serves in the con-
struction of houses and canoes where
Europeans would employ nails. The
green nuts are grated for medical use.
Grated cocoanut forms an ingredient
Of the West Indian condiment curry.
In the Maldive islands labor is usual
ly paid for in cocoanuts.

SCIENCE IN FARMING

! Frank w. Hawley, one of the gem
tlemen interested in the Niagara Ell
ectric Power Company, and a scienti
fic farmer, has a model place near
Rochester, N. Y Writing on the sub
iect of the farmer of the future, he
says:
The new era for the farmer has just
begun. In no domain of human act
ivity lies greater scope for genius
than in agriculture. No other calling
is so conducive to health, longevity,
and happiness. Science lays discov-
cries at the farmers feet and implores
| their use. For him the chemist tolls
in his laboratory. For him the bo
tanist CLEANS the fields. For him the
inventor has simplified labor and en-
lightened toll. For him scholars and
experts employed by the Government
are ever at work at State SOIL The
broad minded agriculturist who avails
himself of these researches and dis
coveries is a man to be envied. We
may yet attain the art of making NAL
leable glass, and under such protec-
ton acres may be devoted to the
growth of vegetables and semi tropi-
cal fruits for our local markets. Rapid
transit and improved refrigerator cars
will enlarge the territory to be sup
piled. The broad belts of the tempe
rate zones extending round the world
will be explored in search of new va
rieties of grain, trees, flowers and
shrubs for our use. The laws of ami
NAL breeding and hereditary will be
better understood and our domestic
stock be greatly improved. America
will possess the finest cattle in the
world, and the States fitted for cattle
raising and dairy will vie with one an
other for the leadership.
The electric age will materially i'm
prove the condition Of the agricultur-
ist. I look for the day when each
farmer will own an electric equipment
to furnish power for his creamery, for
grinding food, for pumping water for
lighting his house, and for heating his
greenhouse and other buildings. Ell
ectric roads will pass his door, afford
ing quick transit for himself and his
products to the nearest market town.
The subtle energy can be made to
serve him in many ways and perform
innumerable tasks.

Teaching Pheasants to Peck In Ceylon

Teaching Pheasants to Peck In Ceylon.
Walking down a road one morning
with a neighbor we suddenly noticed a
little ball of fluff between my feet, and
could hardly avoid stepping on it, as
it stuck close to me; almost immedi-
ately another appeared at my friend S
feet, and we saw they were newly
Matched pheasants, the mother probably
carried off by some wildcat. AS it was
difficult to walk with these little things
running so close and in the way, we
lifted them into the short grass along
side, and hurried on some so yards.
On returning we had forgotten them,
but one ran out, and SO pertinaciously
stuck to my boots that, to save it, put
it into my pocket, and on our arrival at
the bungalow tried to feed it with small
fragments of hard boiled eggs, rice and
white ants. Of all these it took no no.
tlce. Next morning the other chick was
found at the foot of the bungalow steps,
having probably followed us unnoticed
the day before. [ then called my cha
bu," as I could not get them to eat,
and he said, ''They must be taught. -
He put the gauze wire cover they
were under and the crushed rice, egg,
etc., on hard wood table, and taking
pencil from his pocket and collecting
the eatables together, close to the edge
of the gauze cover, he lifted its edge,
and, with tbs pencil point inserted, be-
gan sharply tapping among the rice de-
bris. The two chicks at once ran over
to that place and bent over, watching
the tapping, and, to our establishment,
they began tapping with their little
beaks the same way, and before long
had begun to feed on their own account,
just as the "babu'' had predicted, and
after that lesson we had no trouble.

ALB,NC HUCKLEBERRIES.
Curious Fruit Said to Be Peculiar to
the State of Wooden Nutmegs.

A Curious Fruit Said to Be Peculiar to
the State of Wooden Nutmegs.
Farmer F. B. Crandall Of Bozrah, six
miles west of this city, came to town
recently with five quarts OF allJino hue
kleberries, which he readily sold for a
round price to merchants and . hers
who fancy freaks Of nature. Mr.. Gran
dall's fruit was the finest sample Cf
white huckleberries ever seen in Nor
witch. The berries were all large, hard,
firm of texture, sweet and luscious and
about as white as milk. Albino berries
are extremely rare-in fact, "about as
skeerce as hens teeth, said Mr.. Gran
dali. after he had pocketed 20 cents a
box for some of the fruit.
There are not more than half dozen
places i'll Connecticut, probably, where
they grow, and it is not known that
they grow i'll any other state. There is
patch Of albino bearing bushes in the
billy town of Salem, which adjoins Boz
rah; another in Hartford county, a
third in Windham county, and there are
two or three more in different parts Of
the state. The Salem albinos cluster
about the apex of a wind swept, treeless
knoll in the middle of heavy wood,
and the whole plot is not more than 10
or 20 feet in diameter. By many persons
it is believed that the berries are not al
binos but a distinct species of whortle
berries, since they never mix or ANAL
gamate with the common black buckle
berry Neither are they greatly disposed
to propagate themselves or spread on
new ground. All the widely separated
plots are of about the same dimensions,
while in the case of the Salem patch it
is known to be of just about the same
size now as 100 years ago. In most re-
spects the albinos differ not at all from
the black berries except in color, al
though some country people affirm that
when fully ripe they are trif1e sweet
er, with a more decided flavor. Like all
albinos, whether Of the animal or vege-
table world, they are irradiated with a
faint pink hue, seemingly from light
glowing within the rind, which is as
beautiful as it is curious Most of the
albino patches yield not more than a
quart of berries each. Norwich Conn.

The wretched peasants knees trem-

his brow. He heard the voice as the
voice Of a judge. He looked in the stern
eyes Of the Girondins and read only an

''He is not fit to live. /" said the young

"And you?" Barbaroux continued,
turning and looking with his eyes of

more solemn.
