A curious attempt Is being made for the
first time to occupy again some OF the OLD
stone cities Of northern and central India,
built by Mohammedan OF HindOO dynas-
ties and long ago abandoned to malaria,
the panther and tho snake. OF these Ak
bars Windsor, FathepoOr Sikri, near Agra,
is the finest. Around his sons capital OF
new Delhi there are two or three old CAPT
tails, such as Rudyard Kipling weirdly de-
soribes in his " Naulakha." o..
The present experiment is being made
with Champaner, long the capital OF the
HindOo sovereigns of Guzerat, ON the Dor
der between RajpOotana and BarOda. Since
the Emperor HOOmegOOn took it in 1885,
and 1t fell again to the Marathas, the great
city has been desolate Alaharajah Sindia
gave it to the British government at the
beginning of this century, with its mag
niilcent mosque, tomb Palace, temples
and gardens all walled in.
Champaner stands at the foot OF Paw
Radh, a lordly hill, which rises to 1900
feet, and is the center of n land as fertile
as the adjoining Malwa. Tic cultivation,
promoted by the peace and prosperity OF
our rule, has been gradually hapishing
malaria, so that one Of the city suburbs,
Halol, is healthily occupied and beauti-
full garden has been laid out
Now an official, DR.. Pollen, has, before
leaving India, induced the Mohammedans
to undertake the gradual reoccupation Of
tho city and has recommended government
to settle a colony Of police army veterans
within its walls, with free grants Of land
outside. The tomb Of Sikandar Shah, built
in 1926 by brothers. love, as the Tai Ma
hal at Agra was erected by husbands, is
still beautiful. The people are chiefly abb

Because We cannot understand or hear
It there is no reason to suppose that insects
or animals have no language in which to
communicate their ideas to each other. 1t
has been demonstrated past question that
the world is as full of sounds that we can
not hear as of sights that we cannot see.
That we will some day have what we
might, for lack of a better term, call a
microscope for the ear is as certain as that
we now have one for the eye, and we will
yet DO able to distinguish sounds that are
now as imperceptible as are the baoilli in
ordinary drinking water. That insects
are able to communicate with each other
Is evident from their actions.
It is related that a naturalist, upon
meeting an advancing column of ants, evil
IDENTIFY moving from one portion of the
country to another, caught one of the lead
ers AID killed it, placing it exactly in the
middle Of the path, at some distance ahead
of the column. The leaders ran back to
their comrades and, putting their heads
close together, appeared to engage in ami
mated conversation. Then it was apparent
that q certain course was agreed upon.
The ants took up their line Of march, d.
viding the column in tho middle, each
portion going around the place where their
dead relative lay, and although the way
was inUonvenient and rough they came
no nearer than six feet to the dead body.
After passing it they joined again and
went on without hesitation.
Every housewife knows that If a mouse
is caught in a trap and escapes 1t will be
extremely difficult to catch more mice In
that Same trap for some days to come. If
the mouse is made prisoner, it evidently
leaves marks or warnings of some sort for
its fellows. After "a number Of mice have
been caught in a trap those remaining will
give 1t a wide berth. Instances of this
kind might be multiplied indefinitely to
provo that all classes Of living creatures
ore able to make themselves understood by
others Of their kind -Naw York Ledger.

TO hand this government TO our children
as it was handed 10 us-a free land, hap

be tlumplod by despotism. They are not to

And thou, Lord God Almighty, we put,
with thousand armed prayer, into thy

our fathers to sign their names remember
all the blood and tears Of three wars-l776,
1879, lo62-and, more than all, remember
the groan that was n.ightier than all other
groans, and the thirst that stung worse
than all othcr tllirsts, and the death that
was ghastlier than all other deaths, the
mount On which Jesus died TO make all
men happy and free. For tho sake of all
this human and divine sacrifice, o God,
protect this nation! ARD whatsoever would

AN OLD PLOT.


But In This Case New Heroine Wa
Worked In.
Young story-writers are apt to begin
literary career by telling. in some form
or other, the story which follows. Bnt
it must have taken n real genius to make
a COW the heroine. This particular story
is attributed by the Philadelphia Times.
in which we find it. TO a Texas locomo-
tive engineer.
The engineer was running his train
at full speed, when, he says, his ntten-
ton was attracted by a COW which
seemed to be coming straight down the
track to meet the train. He put his
hand on the valve and pulled out three
sharp whistles.
Still the COW came on, believing at
every step. and acting altogether in an
unusual manner. AS much from curl
osity as anything else, the engineer
slowed up and sent the fireman ahead to
see what was the matter with the cow.
No sooner did the cow see that the
speed of the train was slackening, and
that the fireman was going to investi-
gate. than she turned and ran straight
back down the track, stopping now and
then, looking over her shoulder and
switching her tail as much as to say:
"Come ont"
The man followed, and by and by saw
the COW stop short at a high trestle.
Going up, he discovered another COW
which had got herself fastened in the
trestleworl squarely across the rail.
As soon as the animal was released.
the two cows lost no time in scampering
away.

manufacturing this kind of charcoal con-
sists essentially of a metal retort, something
like those for the production Of illuminatf

scrap in thus becoming charcoal is said to

The Woman who Did. .

In Bow road, London, east, one Satur-
day evening, two men, the worse for drink,
were fighting like demons They We're
surrounded by an excited and yelling
crowd, not one of whom attempted to in
terfere, and as usual, there were no police
to be seen.
An old lady, carrying a cross handled
market basket, came upon the scene, at
which time the combatants were ON the
ground, kicking and punching each other
In most savage manner. The old lady
paused only long enough to take in the sit
uation. Then she went to work and be-
labored the two men about their heads and
bodies with her basket.
This unexpected and energetic attack so
surprised the fighters that, suspending
hostilities, they sat mp and stared at their
assailant in mute nstonishment
Then the righteousness Of the thing
seemed to strike them. They hurst into
hearty laughter, and, getting up, took their
coats and went away, apparently quite
friendly, while the old lady retired tri-
umphantly amid the cheers Of tho crowd

When grapes are plentiful a most
delicate and delightful beverage may
be obtained by pressing the juice from
the grapes. Little presses are to be had
for the purpose. But many grapes are
necessary to make this delicious drink.
Thus treated, the useless seeds, skins
and pulp are prevented from burdening
and taxing the digestive apparatus;
and nothing can be nicer than this
fresh, rich, grape juice.-Womankind.

Dean Hole says, "He who would have
beautiful roses in his garden must have
beautiful roses in his heart. A mora re-
cent writer has declared that plants thrive
best when those who care for them love
them. As an artist selects and takes care
Of his brushes, as an author Charishes his
pen, so a lover Of flowers will sefooa good
tools, and, having secured them, will keep
them good for his fayorites' sake.

A drill instructor Of certain regiment,
being Of thirsty nature, often took the
men he was drilling round near to the
