Charlie. Rende.. Motto.

81 propose never to guess what l
can know" This motto was rigidly
adhered to by the ;suthor. whose love
of accuracy was so great that he spar
ed no pains to verify every statement
he desired to make in any Of his nov
els. grudging no amount OF labor which
he expended in the accomplishment
of this result He was an indefatigable
collector of newspaper clippings from
all nations, which he carefully classi-
fed and arranged in many scrapbooks.
Reports OF many institutions. police
gaZettes. accounts OF trials and acct
dents and manifold descriptions OF all
sorts Were fled away for future refer
ence- The contents OF these scrap
books were indexed with great care.
and from them Charles Reade derived
great satisfaction If ever any OF his
statements were questioned or his
facts denied. he would turn trium-
phantly to his classified scrapbooks and
refute the objections with some posi-
tive proof contained therein.-Miss
Ticknor in Truth

The Banana.

The banana is said to have 81 times
the nutritive value of the potato and
% times that OF bread. In the West
Indies the natives cut the fruit into
strips called pegs" dry these in the
sun and grind them into flour. out of
which many excellent dishes are made.
No cheaper food grows In the tropics.
The plant begins bearing IA months
after being planted. 1t requires 10
cultivation and produces harvests un-
interruptedly for IL years. \ few feet
of ground nourishes n plant. and the
space of u dooryard will grow plants
enough to maintain n large family.
