ENGLAND'S SEA GYPSlES.
A Strange Little Tribe That Live
Always on Boats.

A strange tribe That Lives
Always ON Boats.
A strange and almost unknown part
of the population Gf it can be called
that, of the British isles is the queer
semiwild folk known as sea gypsies.
Real gypSies they are. differing from
their fellow gypsies in the fact that
they always live on the sea and that.
their type is much purer and more
nearly resembles the original
There are about 500 sea gypsies in
Britain. They cruise along the coast,
seldom touching the land, but always
close to it, in old and weatherbeaten
craft that may have carried their
grandfathers.
When the tide is out, the old craft
will often drop anchor by a sand bank
island far oct at sea. and her crew will
grub for cookies with their hands, fill
ing a score of baskets. but saying moth
ing to each other, for they are almost
out of the habit of speech. They find
fifty shellfish where the ordinary fisher
man finds one, but they rarely do the
same thing two days running, and in
the next hour they may be sharing rab-
bits on a headland miles away.
The sea gypsies are wild eyed and
thickset. Their hair Is always either
jet black or golden. They are still of
almost pure Morse or Danish descent,
never having used the land and mixed
with the shore folk to any extent.
Their hands seem to be all thumbs in
stead of fingers, so powerful and stubby
are the digits, because they have done
nothing but haul ropes and dig in the
wet sand.-New York Press.

The Camphor Tree.

The camphor tree (Cinnamomum cam
phora) Is an evergreen, member Of
the laurel family, belonging to the
same genus as the tree whose bark fur
nishes the spice called cinnamon, and
is related to the bay and to the sassa-
fras Of the United States. OF SYM
metrical proportions, it is one Of the no.
blest objects in the forests Of eastern
subtropical Asia. In it's native habitat
It attains gigantic dimensions, notably
In girth of trunk, some specimens
measuring 10 to is feet in diameter. 1t
is said they have been known to reach
as much as 20 feet, and they may be 60
to over 100 feet high, and live to q
great age.
AS a rule, they rise 20 or 80 feet with
out limbs and then branch out in all
directions, becoming mass of splen-
did and luxuriant foliage. Their
leaves, broadly lanceolate in form, are
Of light green color, smooth and shin
ing above and whitish or glaucous
on the undersurface. Small white or
greenish white flowers are borne from
February to April and by October ripen
into berrylike, one seeded fruits about

teresting Collection.
There is an old wine merchant in
New York who has curious collection
of old bottles.
One, which he believes to be the old
est bottle used for holding liquor in
this country, came from Nassau, in the
Bahamas. originally filled with snuff.
1t is made of a coarse, seaweed colored
glass and is shaped somewhat like a
chestnut standing upright upon it's
broad end. There is broad bottomed
bottle which held madeira in Charles
ton in 1910 and Viennese bottle 125
years old, whose slender, graceful
curves have been supplanted today by
q more commercial shape. The first
American gin bottle, from the Schuch-
adts estate, has a pouter pigeon shape,
which is delightful to the eye.
Among the later bottles are some
which constitute the product of the
bottle makers art when impressed
glass came into use. On each side fig
ures are nodded into the glass. There
are number Of railroad bottles" On
drawn by horse is depicted on both
sides, with the motto, Success to the

tive arrangements are shown, comment
Grating the railroad at Lowell, and on
the reverse of the bottle spread eagle
imbedded in thirteen stars.

bottle, upon the reverse of which was

THE HANDY FOLDING RULE.
Am Old standby of the Mechanic I'm
Greater Demand Than Ever.

Am Old standby of the Mechanic I'm
Greater Demand Than Ever.
sThere are about a million different
kinds of rules" said a dealer In hard
ware and tools, 1.-THE rules being some
thing of well nigh universal use in one
form or another in pretty much all
trades, but here's one old standby that
we sell more of now than ever, this be-
ing the folding rule.
'"There are plenty of rules that fold,
the commonly known two foot rule
being a familiar example. but this par
ticular old rule that speak Of is known
by name as the folding rule.
st Is made in foot long sections, in
various lengths, ranging from two to
ten feet and over ten, if required, but
three feet, five feet, any number of
feet, the rule, whatever its total length,
folds up completely into bundle a
foot long. The Stats are thin and fold
ed up, and even ten foot rule takes
up little room. 1t can be quite conven-
iently carried in the pocket.
Lots of people use folding rules
plumbers, for instance, in measuring
pipes and in measuring places for
pipes. In measuring a distance great
err than the spread of the arms with a
tape two men are required, but one
man can measure with a folding rule
as far as the rule can reach, and with
such a rule he can, single handed,
measure around corners or in the an
giles of wall and ceiling or in any other
bend or crevice. We sell lots Of them
nowadays to electricians, who use them
in measuring for wiring houses, and
we sell them to various other users,
the six foot rule being the one most
commonly sold.
"Such rules, of whatever length, are
sold by the foot, at cents a foot

Tried and Convicted Too.

other was young man conducting his
first campaign. .
The veteran was speaking in a small
town, and after setting forth his own
claims he spoke as follows of his oppo-
nent:

sense worthy and honorable man,
but l ask you to remember that lie has
never been tried-he has never been
tried"
"That's SOP exclaimed voice
you've been tried, old man, haven't
you-and convicted, too, you know"
After due inquiry it appeared that
the veteran had been, indeed, indicted
for horse stealing and convicted. He
was not elected.

FLOWER AND TREE.

Pruning to excess or too frequent or
too long is weakening to the tree.
When a branch is removed, the cut
ting should be close, leaving no stub.
The apple, pear, ounce and thorn
can be grated one on another, with va
rying success.
Wormy fruit in the orchard is best
disposed of by the sheep. They eat all
without making any choice, as pigs do.
Planting a few trees every fall or
spring, as may be convenient, helps
materially to keep up supply Of good
fruit.
The cherry, peach, apricot, nectarine
and almond require a light, dry and
warm soil, but may be grown on loose,
sandy soils.
Saltpeter is recommended as a quick
acting fertilizer for flower beds that
seem to be languishing, especially
those that show small and pale leaf
age.
Peach and plum trees are both less
liable to diseases when grown in the
poultry yard. The trees will make Il
Better growth and at the same time
afford shade for the fowls.
Geraniums that have been used for
summer boomers will not flower again
until the late spring months. Gerani-
ums for winter blooming should be
grown especially for that purpose by
keeping the flower buds nipped off un-
til August.

Cooking q Mackerel.

Many dainty nose with beauty and
fortune behind it has been airily ele-
waited at the mention of plain, old fash
toned salt mackerel, but never at the
salt mackerel as cooked by the famous
John Chamberlin of Washington. His
testimony runs to this effect:
'Take one or more mackerel and soak
about 4S hours, changing the water
once. Then put them in a pan large
enough to hold them, cover them with
cream or the nearest you can get to it,
put In oven and cook until cream Is
brown. This beats any mackerel cook
ing on earth."-New York Herald

Love ut First Sight.

We talk of love at first sight, but
what shall we say of people who have
never seen each other marrying and
being not unhappy? "Courting," said
an Irishman. lis like dying-sure a man
must do it for himself"
y In some xcountries-as, for instance,
,Sweden-this is not the case. There the
marriages Of young people are made
for them by their parents, and they
only begin to court when they are we'd
ded. This sounds wrong and absurd in
theory, but it often works well in prac-
tice. Indeed young people ask the ad-
vice of their parents much too little
about that which is perhaps the most
serious and important undertaking in
life-marriage. 100 many of them are
like the young lady who said she hoped
she might be cut into ten thousand
riangles if she did not know more of
everything than did her mother. So
they consult no one and insist on gain
ing experience at great cost to them
selves.-Philadelph Ledger.

its uses, and the whole result of treat

FALL HUNTING IN THE MAINE
WOODS.

The hunting season Is now on, and the
sportsmen have already commenced to
migrate towards the 1nexhaustible wood
lands and forests of Maine, where game
in abundance can be found.
The reports received this year state
that deer are more plentiful than ever be-
fore, and during the close season hunters
who had gone down to camp early SO as
to get line on their whereabouts and be
able to bag few deer at the outset, were
startled at the great numbers which ap-
peared to be everywhere.
From the Moosehead Lake country re-
ports are to the effect that the guides are
making ready for more sportsmen than
been seen In that vicinity.
The country along the Penobscot river
and the Aroostook region are fairly alive
this year with deer, and this is also con-
sidered remarkably good moose terri
tory.
Maine offers scenes and pleasures in
the line of fishing and hunting all her
own, and In the chase for big game she
has no competitor. Deer are not only
more numerous in Maine, but they grow
to much larger size, and the person who
knows how to handle gun at all is rea-
sonably sure of his full quota of deer and
moose.
Although deer and moose are usually
enough to satisfy the appetite of the aver
age sportman, still they are by no means
the only birds of game to be found In
these vast timberlands. Braces of small
er game, together with a plentiful supply
of partridge and quail, have already been
brought into camp; and in that section
which lies contiguous to the Dead River
region, and known as the Rangeley reg
ion, the farmers are very much troubled
on account of the numerous depredations
which have this year been made by bears
on the orchards and cornfields. Bears
are much more numerous this season
than ever before, and to the sportsmen
| who enjoys this exciting sport this por-
ton of Maine Is an especially desirable
spot.
All ways now lead to Maine, and re-
member that the Boston & Maine railroad
Is the only road out of New England that
makes direct connections for the heart OF
the hunting and fishing region.

Passenger Department, Boston & Maine
