The lane had donned a silver veil,
The night folks soft were ringing.
And close Ger drowsy hill and dale
The warm round moon was swinging.
Intent there strolled two figures, SLOW,
THAT walk-they oft review IT'D
And all the crickets chanted low;
She'll do lido lido it,
About their feet the freflles danced,
The moth before them drifted.
The bat athwart their pathway glanced
The rose its face uplifted,
And in the grove a whip-poor-will
Il wonder how he knew IT'D
Kept calling In a fluted trin:
She'll do It! Yes, she'll do it,
They paused beneath the apple tree
That shades the garden wicket
A nook where surely none can see
Not bat, nor bird, nor cricket.
A silence-with some murmurs sweet
Like music trfckling through It;
While earth and air and sky repeat;
She'll do it! o, she'll do TT
Good night"-quite innocent the word:
IT'S merely a convention,
And nothing mores than this was heard
To challenge the attention.
GOOD night" But, fie, what spies were
hid
Among those branches DER us!
List-'katy did Kate did She did"
Rings out a lusty chorus.

While rooters howl and cheer.

New Food Plant

An annual plant growing in tropical
Africa belonging to the leguminous
class is largely cultivated by the
negroes as a food article 1t has also
been introduced to some extent in
southern Asia and in Brazil. 1t is
called woandsu by the African ne
groes; the botanical name is Glycine
subterranca.
A French expert chemist Of ailments
has recently analysed the fruit of the
woandsu with reference to its chemi-
cal composition and it's value as food.
The fruit, like the peanut, natures
under ground. The eatable kernel has
the shape of an egg and is dark red,
with black stripes and a white hilum,
like most beans. 1t furnishes a very
white flour, whose flavor after cooking
much resembles that of chestnuts
The chemical composition Is So per
cent Of staTChy substance, 10 per cent.
heterogeneous, 10 per cent water, G per
cent. oily, per cent. cellulose sub
stance and per cent, ashes. 1t win
be seen that two pounds OF these
beans would supply the daily require
ments of the human system, 1t is an
excellent fOodstuf.

Typhoid

Responsibility for typhoid is illus
uated by every epidemic, but in
striking manner by that of New Ha-
ven. The eycreta from a single pa
tient In neighboring town were care
Iossly allowed to pollute the city's
source of water supply and the result
Is that about 500 people have had the
typhoid reyer-the largest epidemic
ever known in the state. The fact,
again, shows how civilization means
the intcrdcpcndonco of each upon
every other, the woll.bong of the so
clal organism being bound up with
that of it's units. But more than all
else does the epidemic demonstrate
re-,-Jnsibility. Each ply.
stefan may have in his hands the
health Of the entire community.
Thousands OF cases Of disease may be
due to his carelessness as to the dis
posal of the oycreta Of his patients.
