Where Kings Are Buried.

England is almost the only country
in Europe which does not possess a
recognized resting place for the re-
mains of its royal family. The kings
and queens Of England are buried at
Westminster, Windsor, Hanover, Win
chester and Canterbury. Spain, which
pays perhaps most attention to mat
ters of ceremony has the finest vault
for its royalty. Its kings rest in the
Pantheon, which is part Of the Escu-
rial, built by Philip the monk king.
Hard by Is the Pantheon de los In
fantes, in which repose the remains Of
infant princes Of the royal house.
Philip V. and Ferdinand VI are the
only monarchs who are buried else
where. The Cars of Russia since
Peter the Great, with one exception,
are buried in the Cathedral Fortress
Of Peter and Paul at st. Petersburg.
The kings of Holland lie not in the
splendid and modern capital of The
Hague, but amid the rural simplicity
Of the little town Of Delft. They are
buried in the Nieuwe Kerk there.
Austria, on the other hand, revels in
splendor The Capuchin Church Of
Vienna contains 1O5 metal cOfflns Of
the Austrian royal family, some Of
them Of solid silver. This has been
their place of burial since 1919. Most
of the German royal family are buried
in the Domklrche at Berlin, though
some rest at POtsdam. The Dom
kirche contains the tombs Of eighty Of
the ancestors Of the German Emperor,
including that of the Great Elector.
The tombs Of the Swedish royal fam
lily rival those of the Dutch in simple
ity. The kings of Sweden, since the
days of Gustavus Adolphus, have been
buried in the RidderhOlms Church at
Stockholm Westminster Gazette.

Tho Notwithstanding N1osauIto.

That mosquitoes transmit the NAL
aria germ from one person to another
Is no longer a disputed question.
This fact established, it is Of the
utmost Importance that one should
be able to recognize and check the pro-
pagation of the malaria producing
MOSQUITOES. There are about $50
species known to science, Of WHICH
only about thirty have beeu found if
the United States. These are divided
into five genera; but only those of a
single genus, anopheles, have been
connected with human malaria. The
sparrow malaria is transferred by the
genus culex. The habits Of these two
genera are so distinct that the adult
insects can be recognized and sep
arated at a glance. Mosquitoes be.
longing to the genus anopheles hold
their bodies nearly at right angles to
the surface upon which they are rest
ing, while on the other hand, culex
keeps it's body nearly parallel.
The male mosquito is not a blood
sucker and is not dangerous. 1t is the
female that does the biting and trans
mits the disease germ. The eggs Of
mosquitoes are deposited in water.
The larvae inhabit stagnant pools,
ponds, or even slow-running streams.
If larva is found In water with its
body hanging downward at right an
giles to the surface 1t is culex, but IL
the body is parallel to the surface 1t
is the dangerous anopheles.-Professor
Willis G. Johnson, in Good Housekeep.

The publication in England of such
little Incidents as the following will

she broke down completely, and she

One day she complained more bitterly

laws which compelled the younger son
to serve, although so far as supporting
the family was concerned be was

She went out to get some work, and

1t is estimated that a tenth of the
agricultural output of the United
States is ruined annually by insects,
hence the necessity Of keen, careful
observation on the part of the farmer.
AS a rule It is not the creature respon-
sible for serious loss of crops that is
first seen, but the damaged crop itself.
The reverse should be true. By using
his eyes more freely the average farm
er could foresee in paost cases damage
to his crops by injuriousIpests, and
arm himself with the weapons Of de-
fense. In some instances disastrous
insect invasious could be largely avert
ed If facts were generally reported to
the various experiment stations.

The little chap promptly unbuttoned
his gray overcoat and pulled out a
SNAIL watch.

Judge Hollister examined the case
closely.

scrutiny, that this is the watch we

Follister. He stood a moment with
Nne watch in his hand then he walked
over to the fireplace and thrust it al
most Hereby toward his guest.
"Washburn, did you know that pic
ture was in there" he demanded.
The young man looked at the open
case, and such an expression Of amaze
ment grew upon his face that his for
mer innocence could not be doubted.
1t was an oldlikeness OF himself that
he saw uncovered before him. He re-
called with fash of memory how the
first summer he had known Lallte.
they were together in a sailing party
and some one had taken a snapshot of
the group. He had kept his picture in
tact though for him there was but one
face in it. But Lalite-Lalite had cut
his out! Had put it in her watch! Had
carried it about thus without his
knowledge while he was starving for
one sign Of hope and encouragement
from her!

"Humphp' said the old man with a
twinkle in his eye and a glance toward

Of the room. "I should think it was

He went back to the florists boy.
"If you'll come with me to my
study" he said, "In give you your re.

daughter"
There was an abashed heap Of femin-
Unity on the window seat behind the
heavy curtains with its face buried
deep in the cushions, so deep that
nothing but the tip of one pink ear
showed for a kissing place. Little by

tered the rest Of Lalite's big blush.

In discussing the development of the
automobile attention has been largely
directed to its possible displacement Of
the horse in vehicles used for urban
purposes. The possible competition Of
such vehicles with the present street
cars, however, appears to have re-
ceiyed little attention. 1t is plainly OBJ.
vious that the perfection of a small
but powerful storage battery for auto
mobiles, such as Mr.. Edison is now en-.
gagged upon, and the consequent intro.
duction Of smooth pavements in city
streets, must necessarily affect the
traction question in all the larger
cities. WIN the perfected automobile,
with smoothly paved streets, drive the

The New England pine, which EN-

the recent investigation Of Professor
G. E. Stone, to be holding its own in
the forests Of Central Massachusetts,,
while some Of its old compeers, like the
hemlock, the beech and the canoe
birch, have decreased, other species
taking their place. "The pine" says
Professor Stone, "can adapt itself to
great variety of conditions"

On its rails the quail would whistle in the
early summer morn,
Calling to their hiding fellows in the field
of waving corn,
And the meadow larks and robins on the
stakes would sit and sing
Till the forest shades behind them with
their melody would ring.
There the catbird and the jaybird sat and
called each other names,
And the squirrels and the chipmunks
played the chase-and-catch.m games,
And the garter snake was often in unpleas-

On my head there's now a desert fringed
with foliage of gray
And there's many a thread of silver in

the result that there were only scraps

death, and just back of the little
church was a grave with a headstone
bearing an inscription including my
name and a date or two. Which was a
good deal more than most soldiers got
at that time. OF course, I didn't know
anything about all this, and when my
work was finished, which was in about
ten days, l returned to camp. l got
there about dusk, and headed for a

Jake. our colored boy, who was going
into the tent with a two-bushel basin

Snake Mine I'm Indiana.

4 strip of abandoned land east of
Jeffersonville, Ind, is alive with
snakes, some of the reptiles measur-
ing five feet in length. The field be-
longs to Frank Kaelin. W w. Lyon,
civil engineer, was running the
boundaries a few days ago, that the
land might be fenced, and he encoun-
tered the snakes and abandoned his
work. Kaelin went 10 the field tc
build the fence. The sun was warm,
and the ground seemed TO be covered
with the crawling reptiles. Men who
were with Kaelin charged on the
snakes with clubs and killed IS, while
many escaped. The fence was finally
built, but the workmen frequently
stopped to wage a war of extermina-
ton on the snakes. Then Kaelin's
son started to plOw up the ground,
and the first furrow turned up snakes
of all sizes. A large one took refuge
under one of the horses, eoiling
around the animals leg. The boy
killed 16 snakes.

close on his heels, and as they looked
up in surprise at the sudden shower
of soup and the unceremonious entry
of Jake, they saw me, and with a
smothered sort of-yell, they began
tumbling over each other, upset the
table and the tent and for the next
ten minutes there was the blamedest
mix-up you ever saw. I couldn't un-
derstand what it all meant, but | had
sense enough to know that somebody
would be hurt in the wreck unless
help came pretty soon, and l took a
hand at getting matters into shape.
BY doing this had a chance TO catch
hold of an officer or two who couldn't
get away, and when they found I
wasn't a ghost they grew calmer and
began to explain. That was easy
enough, you know, when things were
quieter and we had pulled Jake out
from the bottom and restored him to
consciousness, for the darky had col
lapsed entirely. You know darkies
have no use for ghosts.
"They told me the story of the
man being killed on my horse, and.
thinking it was I, they had buried me
and had a real funeral sermon by a
preacher who lived at Marietta. Next
day they showed me my grave, and it
made me feel a little bit queer to
look at it, but l wasn't sorry 1 was
able TO do so. / wrote to my sisters
explaining that the report of my
death was a mistake, and they wrote
me that they had gone into mourning
for me, but l needn't Worry on that
account, as the black dresses could be
trimmed in cOlOrs and still be useful.
You see, they were disposed to have
fun with me when they found I was
all right. What newspapers were in
existence had nice notices of me, and
the pleasant things said about me in
letters of coincidence to the family
really made me quite satisfied that
something had happened to call forth
such expressions"
