ItnIians Love Tomatoes.

Italians more than any other people
value tomatoes, and each one that
comes to perfection is as carefully tend
ed as though it were an apple of gold.
Not only do the housewives delight in
the fresh vegetables themselves, but,
generally speaking, those home tended
are better than any purchased at the
market and so each one is jealousy
saved to make tomatOe sauce for the
spaghetti, without which no Italian
Sunday would be Sunday. One soapbOX
gardener one season sold enough tOma-
toes to give her quite little pin money.
No one who knows the Italian well will
be surprised to learn that many of the
boxes are devoted to peppers, for they
in truth furnish much of their spice Of
life, and even the little Italian girls
know how to stuff and cook them in a
dozen different ways that tempt the
paIate.-BOstOn Transcript.

+ HOW Our Ancestors QuarreIed.

=
A study of medieval rural life is apt
to give the impression that the princi-
pal part of the life of the people was
spent in quarreling or in the commits
sion or prosecution of Offenses. Our
ancestors certainly were a very liti-
giOus and a very disOrderly people.
The records TEEN with instances of men
and women drawing knives against one
another, of breaking into houses, of
prosecuting one another for SANDER.
Then we have such entries as these:
'It is ordained by common consent
that all the women Of the village must
refrain their tongues from all SANDER
ing" Thomas, son of Robert Smith,
is fined Il pence because his wife Ag-
mes beat Emma, the wife of Robert,
the tailor, and Robert, the tailor, six
pence because his wife Emma swOre at
Agnes, the wife of Thomas" 'It is en-
Joined upon all the tenants of the vii
lage that none of them attack any 9TH
ers in word or deed, with clubs or ar
rows or knives under penalty of paying
40 shillings."
Such entries, frequently occurring, in
addition to the innumerable instances
of individual attack, SANDER, petty
theft and other immortality seem to
show a community of far from perfect
Yirtue.-Lippincott's

? A florist says that the law governing
the coloring of flowers makes a blue
rose impossible. According to this law
the three colors red, blue and yellow
never all appear in the same species
of flowers. Any two may exist, but
never the third. Thus we have the red
and yellow roses, but no blue; red and
blue verbenas, but no yellow; yellow
and blue in the various members of
the viola family (as pansies, for in
stance), but no red; red and yellow
gladioIi, but no blue, and so on.

Two Circus Feats.

"a great deal of unnecessary SYM
pathy is wasted upon the circus man
who stands up proudly in spangled
tights and let's another circus man
bring down q sledge hammer upon a
rock placed upon his head with force
enough to break it, says an old circus
man. ''This is spectacular, but is en-
tirely painless and calls for no gerat
strength or endurance. Upon the era
MUM Of the strong man is put an iron
cOntrivance weighing about 80 pounds
and provided with cushions both above
and where it rests upon the head. A
pretty good sized rock is used, and the
hammer is a heavy one, SO you can see
that the blow that cracks the rock is
really a serious one. But most of the
force is taken up by the rock and the
rest by the iron and cushions, While
the only sensation felt by the subject
is q gentle tap.
"No more difficult than this is the
act whereby the hero of the canvas
tent permits a rock to be broken upon
his chest with a blow from a sledge
hammer. 50 long as the subjects back
is free and does not rest against any
solid object the trick is perfectly sim
pie. A little illustration: Take a board
up and let it lie freely in your hand
and hit it smartly with a hammer. 1t
is difficult to hurt your hand, and the
thicker the board the less the sensa-
ton. But now put your hand on the
table and hit the board. Hurts, doesn't
it? Well, it's the same with the rock
on tho chest -

Rubber Plants.

Many plant growers become annoyed
because the older leaves at the base of
their rubber plants turn yellow and
fall off. This is a natural process. 1t
does not indicate any defect in the
plant. 1t is simply the ripening Of the
old foliage, which cannot be retained
Indefinitely. Sometimes, however, the
loss of foliage results from the want of
root room, but in such cases the plants
refuse to grow.

cleared and the message sent out.

FREDERICK THE GREAT AS FREE
MASON

The opening of the new grand resi-
dence of the National Lodge of Prus-
sian Free Masons in Berlin on Sunday
at which several distinguished Eng
lishmen We're present, reminds me of a
fact not very generally known, Fred
erick the Great long before he assembled
the throne was admitted to the craft,
and subsequently founded lodge at
the Castle of Rheinsberg, where during
his youth he spent SO many happy
days. Els initiation took place during
the night of August 14-15. 1888, at
Brunswick. The step he took was I'M
known to his father The latter was
not favorably inclined to the brother
hood, whose first lodge was only opened
at Hamburg eight months before the
Prince Royal became one of its men,
bers. 1t was at the pleassaunce of
"Het Loo" in Gelderland, where
Queen Wilhelmina is to spend her APP
preaching honeymoon, that the idea
first took possession OF F'redericks
mind, after having heard very out
spoken speech by Count Schaumburg-
Lippe in favor of the brotherhood. He
confided his intention to the count, but
Frederick was travelling with his faith
err, whose itinerary had been mapped
out beforehand, and their road did not
lie by Hamburg, the only city in which
at that period there was a lodge,
-Lippe communicated with
Baron Won Albedyll at Hanover, who in
his turn apprised the Hamburg lodge
of Frederick's project and of the obsta-
cles in consequence of his inability to
leave the king. Father and son were,
however timed to arrive at Brunswick
on August 70, and the day before Mas
ter Won Stehl vom Oberg reached that
city with the members of the Hansea-
tic City's lodge. The next night was
fixed for the ceremony, which took
place at the hosiery Zum Schloss Salz-
dahlum, and up to the present day the
anniversary is kept by all the grand
lodges of Berlin.
1t has often been asserted that as the
years went on Frederick's relations
with the Free Masons became strained.
1t has even been stated that Frederick,
when regent resigned his membership, /.
persuaded, as he was supposed to be, |
that some Of the military secrets of the |
new kingdom had been
divulged to Austria by Free Mason. |
The tale has been embellished in vari-
GUS ways. There is not a particle of |
truth in it. 1t had its foundation in a
curious fact. After the loss of the bat
tie of Kollin, a letter in an unknown
handwriting reached the general head
quarters. 1t contained an offer of as
sistance Of the Free Masons, and bore
the signature of some eminent members +
IF the craft. Frederick was sufficiently
subtle to detect manoeuvre not Of the
Free Masons, but of the Jesuits. Not
The slightest notice was taken of the
epistle, which was sent to the archives.
There are many proofs of Frederic's
lnwavering friendship to the brother
mood, and notably a letter in French,
written in 1851, to the lodge in Berlin,
which, curiously enough, was called
The Royal york of Friendship.
