But Christianity has its foundation.

When Jesus said. On this rock l

the bed rock. This great truth has
stood the test through Inc ages, and

A communication from the Oklahoma
experiment station says: Several
specimens OF the so-called Northern
Leaf-footed Plant-bug" have been re-
eelved at the experiment station at
Saltwater from various parts OF Okla
homa accompanied by the report
that the bug was injuring the fruit
of peaches and plums. They are re-
ported as puncturing the fruits and
sucking out the Juice. The bug Is quite
closely related to the common squash
bugs from which they are readily tod
by their rather more slender form and
particularly by the peculiar leaflike ex-
pansion of the hind legs. The bug
has been known as an enemy of the
cucumber, cantelope and other Gu
curbits, but this is the first recorded In
stance OF their injuring peaches and
'plums.

No More Noah'a Arks.

Noah's ark and the tin soldier must
take their places among the toy an
Equities. The doll that says papa"
and mamma" is really a very simple
affair beside the mechanical toys that
are already being shown to Christmas
purchasers in the large toy shops.
Dolls not only talk, but walk, dance
and sing nowadays. They have their
houses with gas and electric light ar
rangenents. elevators, and crate fires.
Their trunks are no longer cheap toy
affairs, but real leather, with locks
and straps and trays, and their toilet
articles are Of silver and ivory. An
up-to-date doll has her full allowance
Of costumes for the street, the boudoir
and dinner, and has a maid as we'll.
Toy automobiles for dolls are among
the novelties.-New York Sun.

The album habit is so strong and its
expressions are SO varied that little
wonder ought to be felt at an account
of an album in which a young woman
has placed a piece of each gown she
has bought, and has noted on the page
the date Of purchase and the time
when the garment was last worn. The
price also Is attached, both as an en-
couragement and a warning, 1t is to be
supposed. An observer of the other
sex might suggest an enlargement of
the album pages so as to include a
summary of the miles travelled in Sc
lecting the dresses. There might be
added an estimate of the total of re-
grets that other patterns were not pre-
ferred or different fashionings or
dered. No one. of course, would cloud
the pages with surmises as to the ag-
gregate of signs Of envy or whispers Of
criticism which each dress called into
being.

A Curious Coos.ifuf,on.

The most remarkable of the three
complete drafts of the constitution
submitted to the Cuban constitutional
convention is the one submitted by
General Rivera.
1t follows our constitution as 10
form of government when once constl-
tuted, but differs very materially as 10
the modes of constituting It.. 1t pro
vides for a congress of two houses and
a president. Nothing is said about a
judicial branch in the summary at
hand. but undoubtedly that is pro-
vided for. Each Of the provinces Is to
have a local government supericially
after the analogy OF VI state govern
ments. But 1t appears that only the
representatives In congress and three
electors In each municipal district are
to be elected by direct vote of the peo-
pie. The municipal electors are TO
choose the members Of the provincial
legislatures. and these legislatures are
to choose the provincial governors and
the national senators, and all six OF
them sitting together are to choose the
president Of the republic, who must be
a native Cuban.

the size of a large cherry and rather
abundantly provided with seeds, 1t

thence into Arabia and Persia about
the eighth or ninth century OF the

accursed. Nevertheless 1t throye. and
a century or two later had developed
into a fruit much different from that
of the original growth in H~indostan.
1t made its first appearance In Europe
in the twelfth century. when some OF
the crusaders brought oranges home

Holy land. 1t was not accepted as an
addition to the known kinds OF fruits.

A recommendation of the recent Par
is conference on international copy
right is that no modification of an au-
thor's work shall be made without his
consent. Is not this principle morally
binding after an authors death? The
rapid multiplication of UNCONVENTIONAL
hymn-books has led compilers SO ma
terially to alter the verses used that
they often express opposite tenets from
those the author held. 1t is a serious
offense to attach an authors name to
a hymn SO altered.

The rapid extension OF irrigation In
the west and the attention which II
has attracted has caused the irriga-
ton already practiced in the humid
portions of the United States to be
overlooked. The facts already gath
cred by tho irrigation Investigations
OF the ONCE OF experiment. station OF
the U. s. Department OF Agriculture
ehov that there Is a considerable area
In tie eastern part of the country now
being artiicially watered. For mar
ket gardening and growing Of high
priced products, irrigation has proven
highly successful. Few people are
aware that the rice planters OF Louis
lana irrigate over 100, 900 acres. The
canals to water the rice fields along
the South Atlantic coast were in use
moro than a century before Brigham
Youns's followers cut the first bitches
from City Creek in Utah. The area
of land covered by reserves. or reser-
voirs as western irrigators would call
them. Ii greater than the acreage COW
cred by such reservoirs in any ario
state. and the volume Of stored water
IL equally as large. Recently there
has been a tendency to extend this use
Of water to other crops. notably on
truck farms. II this shall prove pront-
able the physical conditions are favor
able for the irrigation OF a large por-
ton of land along both the South At
lantic and Gulf coasts. Canals to
water these level bottom lands along
the coast rivers can be dug for far
less outlay than has to be expended
on many OF the canals in the arid
west, where rocky canons ant precip-
itous slopes must DO traversed to reach
tho plains yet awaiting reclamation
Recent experiments in louisiana show
that the irrigation OF forage crops is
exceedingly profitable: hence 1t does
not seem to be unreasonable to antici-
pate that we may have in this sec

aling in magnitude these OF Piedmont

It's rank nonsense to presume that
a man can't love a oma just as
well IL she is the daughter of a mil
~lionaire as If she were only a sales
woman, and just as silly, too. to think
a woman can't be as devoted to a man
with a title as to one who is a motor
man, for instance. It's all in the man
and it's all in the woman There's
just as much so-called love among til
ties and dollars as there is among the
roses, and the chances are as good for
permanent happiness in one case as in
the other. All Of which is apropos of
the wedding of Miss Zimmerman with
the duke of Manchester.

TYPHus FEVER.
A Disease Worry Fare In This County
Today.

Typhus fever Is fortunately very
rare in this country at the present day.
although we even yet hear occasion
ally of cases in our large cities dur
ing the winter season. 1t used to
prevail extensively in Ireland. and
epidemics were often started in Ameri-
can seaport towns by importation OF
the disease in emigrant ships. 1t is
said still to exist in n@h,sz. Liverpool
and London to some extent, eut Mexi-
CO Is now its chief stronghold. Many
cases occur every winter In Mexico
City and elsewhere on the great cen
trail plateau of Mexico, and sometimes
tourists from this country catch 1t
there and bring 1t home with them.
The disease usually begins suddenly in
the midst of apparent health, with q
chill. prostration, severe pain in the
head and limbs, and high fever; the
pulse Is rapid, the face flushed, the
skin hot and dry. the mouth parched.
An almost constant symptom is nose
bleed, which occurs on the third or
fourth day of the disease, and another
Is constipation. The disease has a
characteristic eruption, which in the
beginning resembles somewhat that of
measles. 1t comes out in patches Of
a reddish or pink color. first IN the
chest and then on the rest ef the body
and the linn BIS. Later the color changes
to a dusky purple. The ervou symp-
toms are marked. They consist at
first Of headache and dizziness, but
soon the patient falls into a stuper
from which he can be aroused only
with diflculty, or else he becomes de-
~lirious, muttering constantly to him
self in a dull. confused way, or per-
be restrained by force from doing him
self injury. The affection is prob
ably q germ disease, although the MI
crobe. IL there Is one, has not YET been
discovered. 1t Is pre-sminsntly
disease of human crowdins, as the cid
names OF ship fever and jail fever tes-
tify. It cannot thrive In the spen
air, and Is never to be feared by these
whose dwellings are flooded with fresh
air and sunlight. Even those already
seized with the fever are not infre-
quently saved IL moved out OF the hos
pital ward or bedroom and kept In
tents, or actually in the open air with
only a shelter supported on poles over
the bed. There is no specific remedy
for the disease, which is a very fatal
one. Open air, cleanliness and good
nursing are the patients only saliva
ton.

vo-v beayiIy pruned the tendency OF
,h. tree is TO make wood at the eA-
pense of the fruit. The pruning neasi-
" of trees after they have gone sew
eral wears without such attention
turn. them into wood-formlng. Many
an orchard has been interrupted IN us
hearing by this kind OF pruning. II
is better to prune a little each year
and this kind OF pruning Is really .
method OF thinning the fruit.
Fruit when kept in cellars or cold
storage houses must not be permit
ted to experience a constant tempera-
ture of less than SO degrees nor more
than 40 degrees. Apples will NOT
freeze at SO and while they are In old
storage will not deteriorate II the tenn
perature Is too low. but the dimcuily
is that when the apples come out OF
such cold storage they go to pieces
within a day or SO. This prevents
them from going on the market, where
they must frequently be exposed 10
normal temperatures for days before
being sold. Apples that have been
kept at a little under 40 degrees stand
the change admirably and keep per-
fectly for weeks. This Is the basis
OF the trouble hat at first occurred
when it wa attempted to send fruit
across the ocean in vessels that were
carrying butter and meats In cold stor-
age. The butterman wanted the lem
p~erature kept at 70 degrees for the
sake OF his butter and tho beef ex-
porter wanted the temperature kept at
20 degrees for his product. 1t was
hard on the apples, and the stock
proved SO worthless on being taken
out that 1t was found necessary to ar
range special rooms on the steamers
for the storage OF the fruit and In
which the temperature could be resu-
lated according to its needs.

Forestry In Indiana.

The division OF forestry Of the de-
partment Of agriculture has during the
last summer examined the sites OF a
number OF plantations In Indiana, in
response to the applications for tree
planting plans which have been re-
ceiyed from hat state. Although fcsr-
ffths of Indiana was originally well
timbered, as much OF the state Is now
practically treeless, with the exception
OF narrow strips along the rivers. In
some places the available timber has
all been cut of. even down to the
streams. Farmers have therefore had
to undertake tree planting In order to
keep themselves supplied with fence
posts and wood for various uses on
the farm. The conditions in these now
t~reeless portions OF Indiana are. how
ever, very favorable to the establish
ment of plantations, especially in the
regions where the originally marshy
lowlands have been drained on. Be-
sides this, the recent law which prac-
tically exempts tree plantations from
taxation will decidedly reduce their
cost. The planting plans, which will
be based on the surveys made this
summer, will consist of recommended
tons, regarding desirable species,
preparation of the soil. and methods
OF establishing and managing the plan
tation with reference to the needs OF
each case. The work has been under
the charge Of the assistant superin-
tendent of tree planting for the diyi-
sion. The planting plans Will prob
ably be completed before next spring.

Henry Hagemeister, treasurer of the
Wisconsin Brewers association. says
b~eer-drinking is OF the decrease in
the state. The days of fortune-mak-
ing in breweries has passed. and sew
eral large establishments now fail to
return a fair percentage on the money
invested. This condition has been
brought about in large Measure by in
creased consumption In homes. When
people drink beer at home" says Mr..
Hagemeister, they are satisfied when
thirst is appeased. In saloons the So
cial or treating feature makes them
drink a great deal more. The result

q Railroad Accident.
The two trains came together with
an awful crash. Some one had blum
dered. That, however, was a matter
which would have to be left for future
investigation. AS soon as those who
were injured could extricate them
selves from the wreck they turned
manfully to the work OF rescuing their
less fortunate fellow passengers. 1t
was a sickening sight. Cars were heap
ed on top of one another. People were
pinioned under seats, beams and
trucks. Steam was Kissing from the
overturned boilers, the rails of the
track were warped and torn loose from
the ties, and the moa and cries of
the injured could be heard afar off.
Finally, after long, hard work. the
rescuers reached the bottom OF tho
mass, where the legs and body of a
man protruded from beneath a twisted
platform. Beside him lay a cane.
decorated with colored ribbons and a
long tin horn. Fearfully and anxious
