Cash OF the Ancients.

The little brass cash. the Chinese

remote celestial ancestors. From the
regular hatchet to the modern coin

Is impossible to say where the one
leaves off and the other begins. Here
Is how this curious pedigree first
worked itself out: In early times. be-
fore coin was invented. barter was
usually conducted between producer
and consumer with metal implements,
as It still is in Central Africa at the
present day.
At first the Chinese in that unso-
phisticated age were content to use
real hatchets for this commercial
purpose, but after time, with the
profound mercantile instinct Of their
race, It occurred to some Of them
that when a man wanted half a
hatchet's worth Of goods he might as
well pay for them with half hatch
ct. Still, as it would be a pity to spoil
a good working implement by cutting
It in two, the worthy All Sin ingeni-
ously compromised the matter by
making thin hatchets of the usual size
and shape, but far too slender for
practical usage. By so doing he in
vented coin. and. what Is more. he
invented it far earlier than the claim

How Sea- Turtles Feed

The study of sea turtles Is most IN
tcresting one. In order to get rid of the
parasites that cling to their shells they
often enter fresh water streams to en-
JOY bath, but they are extremely timid
and take fright at the least noise. The
hunter knows, however, that the turtle
feeds in brackish streams, where the tide
falls rather low and where the turtle
grass grows in greater profusion. The
turtles cut great quantities Of the grass
and there roll It into ball. cementing
it with the clay in which the grass
grows; and in this way, when they
have managed to amass goodly
supply of provision, they wait for high
tide and float away seaward, feeding as
they float. The professional hunters are
quick to detect these balls, and just the
moment they do so they set their seines
and send their peggers, as the men are
called, in search of the feeding shoals.
Men are not the only enemies the tur-
ties have, however, for bears, raccoons
and other animals native to Flori Ia de-
stroy great numbers of them.-BaI'-

Art ColorR In New Llnena.

without lining. being Of sufficiently
firm texture to set we'll without further

will make full gown and allow a'deep
hem to the skirI. but even less may
be allowed for a bolero and skirt. and
this is very popular fashion for duck

Frills, flounces and anything OF the
full or fussy type must be avoided for
linen, but fat bands Of fRussian gallon OF
coarse lace Of point iArabe type are

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

Endurance is noble. lethargy the
reverse.
Obligations menace friendship and
destroy love.
The mantle of silence generally has
a few holes in It.
To be honored socially is not to be
seen everywhere.
Argumentative victories always
leave scars behind.
Fault-6nding has its root in dislike,
criticism in kindness.
Those who try too hard to be smart
prove they are stupid.
Fear is murderer at heart and
envy the breeder Of lies.
Impulsive women dig pits,into which
they finally fall headlong.
Keeping ones woes to oneself is an
excellent proof of wisdom.
Mistaking possibility for probability
has wrecked many a fortune.
The desire to please is normal and
the desire to supplant abnormal.
Little tongues are more powerful
than the ingenious might credit.
Silent reformation is for more poten-
tial than open confession Of error.
Never bemoann your few friends;
you thereby save additional enemies.
IT'S better to have dinner of herbs
and harmony than a banquet and tears.
Mean men and haggling women
make the eyes weary and the ears
ache.
Young knowledge is braggart.
Aged wisdom says very little until
asked.
Never build upon possibility,
Thereby you will be saved much dis
appointment.
Diplomacy is never 50 valuable as
in the marital relation; 1t bridges diff
ferences otherwise fatal to peace.
Envy none. Every heart has some
secret chamber of horrors, and those
who seem most gay have often the
grimmest skeleton.-Philadelphia Rec.

A Partnershlp Affair.

An interesting discussion On the
relations between women's develop
ment and privileges and her econ
omic independence is reported to have
takn place recently In English Ladies'
Literary society. The fundamental
relations between property and privi-
lege were discussed, and the peculiar
bearing of the generally accepted
opinion that husbands keep their
wives" But it was shown that in
domestic labor women really learn"
as men do abroad, and that the earn
ings, though not translated into coin,
can still be reckoned up at the end
Of the week as so much to the good Of
the common stock. This can be proved
by husband paying others to do what
his wife generally does, and the fig
ures would come out approximately
as to what a woman relatively earns.
especially among the working classes.
Some ladies' repudiated the thought
that woman should or could be paid
for what are labors of love; but Mrs.
Slopes pointed out that there should
be 40 humiliation of the true concep-
tion of matrimony was understood. It
should be a union of souls and part
nership of interests" ."-Detroit Free

ClORClA'S PEACH BELT.
Fourteen Thousand Acres in One District
Now Set Out With Ireas.

Perhaps the largest peach-growing dis
trict in the globe is that around Fort
Valley and extending to Albany, Ga.
The peach orchards cover more than H.,
900 acres within a radius of ten miles OF
For. Valley, and in this area there are
something like 100000 peach trees, 2o,-
900 pear trees, 10000 grape vines, 1900
plum trees, and 1900 apple trees.
1t is impossible for one who has never
visited this region to realize what inn
mense proportions the fruit-growing in
dustry has reached. The railroads are
taxed at the height of the season to get
the crops to markets. Each fruit car
carries an average of about 400 cases,
and this years crop will require not few
er than 1000 cars to move it. At 81 a
crate-a very low estimate-the crop
around Fort Valley will bring in some
thing like $4,000.
1t can readily be realized from these
figures what the fruit industry brings to
Georgia. There are a dozen or more
fruit companies formed in Ohio, which
own nearly 10000 acres of peach lands
in Houston county, on which there are
more than 10000 trees. The capital
stock of these companies is something
more than $4,000.
Year by year the peach-rsising COM
panies are spreading out and getting
into new territory. The part of South
Carolina Immediately adjoining the
Georgia line is coming to the front as a
peach-growing country, and the yield
there this year will be large. Old fields
which have for years scarcely been re-
garded as worth paying taxes on, are
being set out in orchards.-Neau York
