The Coughing Beam.

To the ordinary houScmaid the fall
Ing of n house plant into a violent
paroXysm OF coughing Is naturally
dlsconccrting. Yet there are plants
which will do this when the broom
or the dustcr begins to make dust fly.
This singular plant is the coughing
bean" known TO the botanst rs the
Eutada tussicns. 1t is n native Of
warm and moist tropical countries and
cannot and will not stand dust. When
dust settles upon the breathing pores
I'm the leaves of this plant and chokes
them, gas aCcumulates inside the
leaves, and when It gains sufficient
strength forcihly blows or" clearing
the pores Of dust and making a sound
exactly like coughing. N the same
time the leaves trcmble and the plant
actually gets red iu the face through
the sinking OF the green Chlorophyu
grains and the appearance of red par
tiClcs on the leaves. This plant Is
sometimes used as n house plant. and
sweeping the room sets il coughing, to
the intense astouishmcnt of persons
not familiar with its pcculiariticS.

This whistling for crossings etc, is a very unbusinesslike and ungentlemanly sport. Suppose, some house were to burn in town or some store was being robbed and someone would at tempt to give the alarm by shoot ing. No one would heed to the call. Because every citizen is becoming so accustomed to the popping of the pepper that very little attention is given it. Yet. business men should cease to in dulge in such dangerous practic- es; for the safety of their pro perty whether have the good name of d town at heart or not.
 On the sht of October 31 is the eve of All Saints or All Hal lows Day, commonly called Hal ]oween and is quite extensively observed by the people of our country. Much IS said of the or igin of this superstitious observ. ance. In early years it was be- lieved that fairies or ghosts. and supernatural beings ruled over all the earth. Along with this supernatural belief existed the belief that it was dangerous for people to be out on this evening as they were liable to be set up- on by demons. Thus it became customary for large companies of friends to spend the evening togather on this Hateful night. In olden times these parties gath. cred at the fireside and spent the evenings drinking cider cracking nuts and eating apples. But as civilization has advanced this superstition has been abandoned to a great extent. Halloween is observed to thIs day by old and young III playing pranks and having parties.
