Deer Live 10 n Great Age.

Romance has played prominent part
with regard to the longevity of deer.
What says the highland adage?
Thrice the age Of a dog is that Of a horse
Thrice the age Of a horse Is that ot a man,
Thrice the age OF a man is that Of a deer
Thrice the age Of deer is that Of an eagle,
Thrice The age Of an eagle Is that Of an oak tree.
This is TO assign the deer a period Of
more THAI 200 years and the estimate
Is supported by many highly circum-
stantial stories. Thus Captain Me-
Donald Of Tulloch, who died in 1916.
aged So years is said 10 have known
the white hind Of Loeb TrIeg FOR so
years, his father for like period before
him and his grandfather for go years
before him. So in 1926 Macdonald OF
Glengarry is reported to have killed a
stag which bore a mark on the left ear
Identical with that made on all the
calves he could catch by Ewen-MacIan-
Og. who had been dead 100 years. Anal
ogous stories, it may be noted, are told
in countries on the continent OF Europe.

Just Like Ewes Apple.

A fruit supposed to bear the mark OF
Ewes teeth Is one of the many botanl-
cal curiosltles Of Ceylou. The tree on
which ii grows is known by the sgnih-
cant name OF the forbidden fruit" or
Ewes apple tree"
The blossom has very pleasant
scent, but the really remarkable fea-
ture OF the tree, the one to which II
owes its name, is the fruit 1t is beau
tiful and hangs from the tree In pc
culiar manner.
Orange on the outside and deep Grim
son within. each fruit has the appear
ance of having had a piece bitten out
of it. This fact, together with its pot
sonous quality, led the Mohammedans
TO represent it as the forbidden fruit of
the garden OF Eden and to warn men
against its noxious properties.
The mark upon the fruit is attributed
to Eve. why the bite of Adam did not
also leave its mark is not known, but
as only one piece seems to be missing
its loss is ascribed to the woman

steeYs Market TIPS.

Does II ever occur to those who fol-
low journalistic tips on the stock mar
ket that they are written by men who
find 1t worth their while TO follow an
arduous and moderately remunerated
profession and that therefore the tip.
stcr obviously cannot trust to his tips
for a livcllhoody
Is it conceivable that any one whose
judgment Of the movements Of securi-
ties was sufficiently trustworthy TO
make even the majority Of his shots
bullseyes would waste his time by
compiling paragraphs for newspapers? -?
Would he not rather spend half al
hour or SO Ia the morning at the end
of telephone instructing his broker
TO buy aud sell and devote the rest OF
his day to the graceful consumption Of
the boundless fortune that his knowl.
edge aud acumen would, ex hypothesl,
inevitably provide?
And tips from stockholders come IN.
der the same suspicion. for 1t is not
reasonable TO suppose that one who
really had tips worth following Ia his
possession would utilize them as baits
for clients who reward his efforts with
q beggarly half crown per cent.-COrn-

Monument to n Pig.

No stranger monument ever existed
than that which was erected at the
Hotel de Vile by the inhabitants Of
Luneburg. in Hanover, in honor Of n
pig. This, which took the form of n
kind Of mausoleum, contained a large
glass case in which was hermetically
inclosed a fine ham cut from the anil
NAL whose memory was TO be handed
down to posterity. Above was a hand
some slab OF marble, on which. eu-
grayed in letters of gold, was the fol-
lowing inscription in Latin: 'Passers-
by, contemplate here the mortal re-
mains Of the pig which acquired for
itself imperisbable glory by the dis
