Harmful Mourning,

A great many physicians deprecate
the wearing OF mourning for the dead.
They say that it can be no consolation
to the departed, and that heavy, som,
be1 black gowns and wells arc 'ex-
tlemely unhealthy for the living to
YEA The outward signs OF grief
keep the loss p~erpetually before one.
The custom OF wearing mourning is,
however, too firmly established ever
to be obliteratad. Even in less civil
lied countries than ours it obtains.
Indeed, the Arabs are said to mourn
with a vigor and thoroughness that
outshines even that OF a Partisan
widow, who had her bicycle painted
black to match her som5er garments.
Among the Arabian women, when they
are obliged to go into mourning, they
no. only e black clothing, but
stain the hands and feet black, for
eight days. They drink no milk dur
ing these days on the ground that the
hue would not harmonize with their
mental gloom. It is hard to see how
they could further add to the melan-
choly of the situation unless they
drank black tea during the period OF
mourning.-New Orleans Picavune.

Tile Origin OF I::nn ErasS

81 notice by the papers that ONE
body in the south part OF the State
wants to know where blue grass first
started" said Professor John Collett,
ex-State Geolo3ist. ma
ga great many people contend that
it was found IN Kentucky, but this is
not SO. Blue grass is q native of the
Wabash Valley i'll Indiana. 1t was
found by William Henry Harrison's
troops during the solemn march to
Tippecanoe in 1911. Harrison gath
cred q small army at Ohio Falls and
started North. At Vincennes the gal
LIANT heroes realized that they could
not go 200 miles up the Wabash with
out feed for their horses. General
Harrison had two cribs Of corn at
Terre Hante and persuaded the men
to so on. AS they capse on with
hungry horses and scant feed they
found the ground covered with blue
glass. Six miles west Of Newport, on
the Collett farm, vas found 6 bounti-
full supply Of blue grass. Some places
in the bottom it was growing three
feet high and such feed had neve
beea heard OF by the Ken lucky SOL
diers. At State Line Citymore blue
grass was found and from there to
Tippecanoe the whole line Of march
was covered with blue grass. The
seed was carried back to Kentucky
and sown there, but they could not
make it thrive in the warm soil and it
had to be sown with oats and rye.
Mr.. Sandusky, the father of the pres
ent family Of that name, told me in
an early day that no blue grass grew
in Kentucky until after it was i'm
ported from Indiana. Tom Downing,
of Terre Haute, was an ardent ad-
mirer Of Henry Clay, and once went
to visit him at his home neal Ashland,
Ky. After seeing the fine farm, we'll
set in blue grass, Downing suggested
that Mr.. Clay let him have some Of
the seed to take back to Indiana.
"'Tom, don't make a fool of your.
SELF, said Clay, the grandsire of Ken
lucky blue grass is growing around
your house and in the fence corners
of your fields. We got the seed from
Terre Hsute and the Middle Wabash,
and after a hard struggle got it to
grow here in its present luxurious
ness. '"-In1ianapolis journal.

Curious Specimens Of Plant Liza.

What IS known as the rose OF .Jeri.
cho is possibly the most curious speci-
men OF plant life, The rose Of Jeri.
cho is said to be brought from the
valley Of the river of that name and to
be the resurrection plant mentioned in
the Bible. When received the plant
is simply q bundle OF dried, withered
and worthless sticks tightly pressed
together. II placed in a glass of water
the branches will expand, buds and
leaves start and the whole plant grows.
The Mexican resurrection plant is the
fluffy, fr-liks variety often noticed in
florists windows and is o favorite with
children, as it quickly expands from a
hard ball to a beautiful, metallic
green plant. The experiment can be
repeated many times. There is on y
one variety OF resurrection plants
which blossoms. All varieties may be
kept indefinitely and the strength
seemingly never exhausts itself.
