Nature does good deal of thinning,
but she does not do it evenly, allow
ing sometimes three or four pears to
set in one cluster, while dropping all
off on another. This year it is likely
that pear blossoming will occur in
many places in dry, sunshiny weather.
Therefore the orchardist, when he
finds that pears have set too abundant
ly, should go to work early to help
nature out of her difficulty. He may
cut off many that would have dropped
off themselves if let alone, but hand
thinning will secure a more even
stand and it will pay to do it early.

A Syrian Village Funeral.

The gatherings of villagers at fu'
nerals in Syrian village are very
large. The entire population of the
village above the age of fifteen is e1.
pected to attend. At such gatherings
men and women do not mipgle togeth-
er. There are always two places pro.
vided, one for each sex. The women
surround the corpse. and do most of
the mourning and wailing, and the
men spend the time discussing sub
jects pertaining to life and death. As
soon as person dies the news is COM
municated to the villagers with all
swiftness. Women hurry first to the
bereaved home, and men come in large
companies little later. When the
relatives see number OF men coming
they stand in line to receive them.
1t is not good manners to say .'good
morning" to the bereaved before ex
pressing ones sympathy to them. So
when people come they stand in line
facing the relatives of the dead, and
all together say: "Our mind is with
you in this bereavement; may you be
kept safe; may the dead be sacri-
flee for the prolongation of your lives
it is extremely grievous to us, but it
is the will of God" This is the short
est form of expressing sympathy at a
funeral, said with the right hands fy-
ing from their breasts to their heads
and back in quick succession, and
answered in the same manner by the
relatives of the dead. After this they
say $50 cd morning all together and
exchange elbow are you?" etc. I'm.
dertakers are not found in Syria ex-
cepting in the large cities. The
neighbors with the nearest relatives
take charge of the corpse, and there
is no embalming. When person dies
a carpenter is called to take the meas
ure of the corpse and make "taboot'
f, "a kind of casket. The law requires
that the dead be buried after twenty
four hours from the time of death, ant
not sooner, hut this law is seldom
obeyed. York Times.

Lord Justice Romer, of England, has
swept away venerable precedent and
established greatly improved one in
its place. The old one was in a case
where two judges had delivered oppo-
site judgments and the third observed
oracularly: 'I agree with my brother
A. for the reasons given by my broth
er B." This is, of course, we'll known,
but the new one is much finer. Lord

Speculations by the Pale Mathematician

Specu1ations by the Pale mathematician
That Bored the Ruddy Business Man.
"Have you noticed" said the pale
mathematician, chow much easier it
is going to be, after this year, to write
the number of the year in Roman
numerals?"
''Nyhat do I want to write the year
in Roman numerals for?" said the
ruddy business man.
"Maybe you don't" the pale
mathematician answered, "but notice
the difference. In Arabic figures 1t
has taken just four figures to write the
number of the year ever since the year
1000, and it will take no more till the
year 9999. But in Roman numerals
the year 1000 was written with single
M We shall never get back to one
letter again. Now for this year 1t
takes nine letters, 'MDCCCXCIX. >
And think of 1883, which we can
easily remember. Then it took thir-
teen letters, 'MDCCCLXXXVIII. ;
That was the hardest year to write Of
the whole Christian era thus far.
"But next near, 1900, it will drop
tlBnL uOWu To buroe uBureS, MIMI
And hundred and one years hence
it will go to two letters, NM And
how long do you think it Will be be-
fore another year comes as hard to
write as 1882"
"I don't know" said the ruddy
business man, absently. He was
wondering whether he could turn the
crank of the messenger call to the
word "Police" without being noticed.
"Not till the year 1885," said the
pale mathematician. "That will be
written in Romans 'MMCCCLXXX-
VIII'-thirteen letters again"
The ruddy business man was get
ting more and more uneasy. "And
what-what of it?" he said.
"Why, only think" said the pale
mathematician, show many genera
tions of our descendants will never see
year so short to write as 1900, and
how many and many more will never
see year so long to write as 1888. I"

Beau Door.

Buffalo Commercial: In old New
England farmhouses, in addition to the
regular front entrance, it was the GUS
tom to have second outside door
opening directly into the front parlor.
A knock on this door usually meant
that bashful young man was outside,
who wanted to call on the daughter of
the family. Now that there are no
more bashful young men, sofa or a
chair is usually rolled against the beau
door, and callers run the gauntlet OF
the family entrance.

Is one of the war books which is likely
to be in continuous demand. 1t is a
panoramic record of the triumph of
Yankee Doodle. The eagle flaps his
wings on every page, and "Old Glory"
waves around and above every scene.
Prominent officers Connected with the
war are here portrayed, as well as
many of the "men behind the guns"
Military life is pictured to the eye,
from recruiting to guard mount and
skirmish line. Nor is the ludicrous
omitted. The company cook receives
the attention due to his importance.
the mess is shown; cavalry scenes are
given; the hospital arrangements are
depicted; the heroines of the Red
Cross service are displayed; street
scenes in Havana, Santiago and else
where are unrolled; the new citizens or
subjects (Which are they?) of Uncle
Sam appear and disappear as the
leaves are turned.
In a word, the gazer visits the new
localities and sees the tumultuous new
life without the risk or expense of a
sea voyage.

Learning to Play Golf.

The best way to learn the game Of
golf is to get out on the links and prac.
tice it. Over dozen kinds of clubs
are used, but lack of space makes il
impossible to describe them and their
special uses here. The driver is a
wooden club used for making long
strokes. The putter is made OF iron,
with the exception of the handle, and
is used for making short strokes. The
lofting iron, or club, is for lifting the
ball when it gets into depressions and
has to be driven out, or for lifting the
ball over mounds, fences or other
bunkers. These three clubs are suf.
ficient for the uses of the beginner
