The Charm OF the Poppies.

Very ancient is the history of the pop
by. 1t was wreathed with the lotus in
Egypt and twined with thyme ard pars-
ley in Greece. II was also one Of the
flowers dedicated to Venus, and the
witches who wrought their spells and
muttered their incantations on the
mountain tops cast into their brew the
horned leaves.
1t was carly recognized that the pop
by in ITS simplest form is one of the
most decorative OF flowers. It's simplest
form is, of course, the wild flower of
four petals. It is treated decoratively in
a number of ways, either as a fat de-
sign of the lifted cup or as conven-
tional representation of the four petals
encircling the receptacle or as the stem
unfolding the domelike and sometimes
strongly ridged seed pod but, after all,
the most marvellous artistic suggestions
are found in the sharply outlined leaves
which rise to slender Gothic points.
These serve as models of leaf design and
were carved boldly and delicately in the
stone of ancient cathedrals.
There is always something artificial
in the appearance of the cultivated pop
pies. They lack the stability or reality
and ever suggest the gypsy masquerad-
ing as the princess.
Poppies, with very few exceptions,
are not in the least difficult to grow.
Seed sown in the fall or spring will
| produce plants that flower all summer.
They do not demand an enriched soil
and profuse watering, but grow in an
independent, careless fashion that is a
relief after an experience of the exac-
ton of some plants. Nancy NJ Waddle
in Godey's Magazine.

Luther's Bones.

1t is generally supposed that the
bones of the great reformer were torn
from their last resting place in the
church of the castle of Wittenberg dur
ing the Thirty Years war and scattered
to the winds, like those Of Wyclif.
At all events, no trace of Luther's tomb
has hitherto been discovered. One of
the biographers OF Luther, Herr Koest-
lin of Halle, has, however, raised no
little sensation i'll religious circles in
Germany by recent article i'll theo-
logical magazine which throws over the
accepted explanation of the disappear
ance of the reformer's tomb as mere fic-
ton. He declares that two workmen
engaged on the restoration of the church
in Wittenberg castle came across the
coffin and body of Luther without let
ting any of their comrades know Of
their find. 1t is alleged that they enter
ed the chapel by night and dug out the
remains, secretly reinterring them, in
fear of arrest. There ought to be no
difficulty in discovering whether there
is any truth in Herr Koestlin's state
ment. -Westminste Gazette.

Traps and Trapping.

The ways of trapping are as various
as the ingenuity of savage or civilized
man can devise. like best the traps
that one can make. They seem to give
the animal fairer show; they develop
our own constructive faculties, and the
nearer we can get to the savage way
the more fun it always is. Steel traps
have place that wooden traps can new
er fill, but give me something that
can make with my own hands, with the
simplest tools, out of whatever materi-
ais the spot affords where the animal
lives.
OF all the animals in this country
there is none that affords less harmful
sport than the rabbit-more properly
hare-of which there are several spe-
cies. Its wonderful powers of increase
enable it to hold its own, as tar too
many of our best and most valuable
animals do not Furthermore. rabbits
are very easily trapped.
Every one knows its little trail, rs
broad as ones hand, through the bushes
or broom sedge, or its footprints as it
hops over the clear snow. Here, where
the path goes under fence rail, it has
stopped to gnaw. The rabbit follows
this path in season and out, though in
| the far north, where the snow keeps
piling and piling up its little road may
change with each successive snowfall.
| Trappers there put out large number
| of snares, setting them right in the mid
die of the paths. -Harper's Round Ia

Petit. Larceny Not woman's Sin Alone.

The story comes from England Of q
novel being found in the strong room of
a firm of publishers written entirely
upon the note paper of London club.
The thing is significant for two reasons
First, because the novelist was a mai.
and, second, because petty larceny has
long been supposed to be the prerogative
of woman. 1t is fact that, in this
country at least, it is women who pilfer
the detachable privileges to be- found in
railway stations, the waiting room OF
department stores, hotels and like
places. 1t has been found necessary to
chain Bibles themselves. 1t isn't so very
long ago that when a woman arose to
read her bulky extemporaneous address
at the meeting of certain woman's
club, her listeners, upon the back OF
each sheet of manuscript, could descry
the sign and seal of well known hotel.
This wasn't so bad, Of course, as q
whole book, but it was bad enough
