Al a Virginian village In very impa-

Watermelons n Fruit.

Some men have never been willing
TO class the luscious watermelon" as
a vegetable, aud on this point the
United States government has been
forced TO come to the darkey's point
of view The decision has been made
by the general board of appraisers on
case arising at Nogales upon the
right TO import melons as vegetables.
The board decided thrt "the melon is
known technically, popularity and
commercially, as a fruit and therefore
dutiable." The same view is taken,
by the department of agriculture,
and we may now rest assured that the
status of the watermelon, muskmelon,
cantaloupe and their whole kindred
has been raised few points, officially
and permanently. Indio may now
claim to be one of the most promising
fruit sections of the state without a
tree in sight. National Fruit Grower.

An old legend gives the following as
the origin of the snowdrop: After Adj
am and Eve had been driven from the
garden of Eden Eve was disconsolate.
One day as she sat silently grieving an
angel appeared and sought means TO
comfort her She longed for the flow
ers, but the fast descending snow was
wrapping the barren earth In robe of
white.
AS the angel stood and spoke words
Of hope to the weeping, repentant WON
an he caught a snowflake. breathed
gently upon it and said:
Take form, pure snowflake, bud and
blossom and be comfort to humanity,
now and forever"
In twinkling the snowflake changed
into a beautiful flower. as white and
pure as the snow itself, and when Eve
beheld the newborn blossom gladness
and hope came to her heart, and she
smiled through her tears.
Having fulfilled his mission of love
the angel departed, but where he had
stood there Immediately sprung up q
circle of perfect snowdrops.

Recipes For Happiness.

Happiness is not to be procured like
hard bake in a solid lump. 1t Is com
posed of innumerable small items. The
recipes for its acquisition are simple,
and therefore we ignore them. Love
I'm marriage, fidelity in friendship, af-
lection between parent and children,
courtesy in Intercourse, devotion to
duty and perfect sincerity in every re-
lation of life--those are the ingredients
of n happy life. In the quest for hap
piness one could not do better than put
into practice the precepts of the great
Persian: Taking the first step with
the good thought. the second step with
the good word and the third step with
the good deed, entered paradise.

An Execution In Chinn.

The poor wretches were made TO dig
a large square pit, and one by one they
were made kneel at the edge with
their hands tied behind their backs. A
Japanese officer stepped forward and
with the ordinary service sword drew
1t back and forward over the poor
wretchs neck, and then with swift
blow it descended, cutting off the head.
The next one was as successful, and
then came terrible spectacle. The Jap
anesc officer, after wiping his sword,
drew the back TO and fro over the
poor wretch's neck three or four times
before he struck the fatal blow. Down
came the blade on the apex Of the skull,
cutting about two inches into the neck.
The poor wretch fell into the pit, the
japanese officer climbing down and
saving away at the neck until the head
was severed The heads were immedi-
ately carried over to the main road and
strung up oil poles as an object lesson
to the large humber of Chinese who
were congregated around with blanch-
ed faces.-Canadian Magazine.

what We Most Remember.

Memory is for the most part "a trivial
fond record of the affairs of everyday
life, and our intense desire not to lose
the remembrance of these unimportant
everyday matters is one of the greatest
testimonies to the predominance of
happiness over unhappiness in the
world. DO we not feel sorry from our
hearts for any one who has lost such
an infinitely precious possession with
out even wondering whether or no
there was anything in their past lives
worth recollectlng? After all, how few
are the hours which any of us would
blot out of our lives! Those perhaps
during which we have witnessed or
suffered acute physical or mental pain,
the moment when we engendered the
worm OF remorse which dieth not or
those few minutes of humiliation
which, whether we trace them to fault
or fate, remain In our minds TO "vex
us like a thing that is raw" But how
small is the part we would have taken
away compared to the part we would
retain!-London Spectator.

not only nourish a particular part Of

may be, its nutriment is destroyed by
indigestion or dyspepsia. You must

An EoIinn IInrn.

To make an Golian harp construct a
box of very thin pine, cedar or other
wood, five or six inches deep, seven or
eight inches wide. with length equal
to that of the window i'm which it is To
be placed. Across the top, near each
end, glue a strip of wood half an inch
high and a quarter of an inch thick
for bridges. Into the ends of the box
insert wooden pins, like those of a VIC
lin, to wind the strings around, two
pins In each end. Make sound hole
in the middle Of the top and string the
box with small catgut or first fiddle
strings. Fastening one end of each
string to a metallic pin in one end OF
the box and carrying it over the
bridges, wind it around the turning pin
in the opposite end of the box. Tune
the strings in unison and place the box
in the window. 1t Is better to have
four strings, but a harp with single
string produces an exceedingly sweet
melody.

A Cnreer Ending joke.

This Is Il true story about one Of the
mayors Of Kansas City. He was mayor
when the incident occurred, not SO very
many years ago. Two newspaper men,
both very good friends of the mayor,
were about 10 leave town, and they
asked Mr.. Mayor 60 help them cele-
brate their dr.Hrture.
1t was 1T ,'sy "a summer, and aft
er an hour OF two Of conyiyial indul-
gence the mayor Of Kansas City was
very much under the influence of liz
uor. The newspaper men were feeling
jovial, but they were still able TO walk
around. l. finally became necessary to
10 something for the mayor. Seeing a
fruit wagon pass, one of the newspaper
men ran out and hailed the driver.
When he drew up to the curb, lie was
asked whether or not he wanted to
make So. lie replied that he most GER
tainly did.
Ii was then explained 10 him that a
drunken man would be stretched out In
his wagon. face toward the sky. and
that he must drive through all the bust
ness streets OF the town and then take
the man home
Not knowing who his passenger was
to be, the driver consented, and the
joke was carried out 10 the letter.
Through the streets of Kansas City the
mayor of the town, stretched out on an
open wagon asleep, was driven, and
there was placard that announced the
cause of the strange plight fastened
on the back of the wagon. The mayor
was not e-elected.-Chicago Chronicle

HORTICULTURAL DEPARTMENT.
soil Fertility.

The greatest question on the farm
to-day is the one of fertility. II is as
broad as the farm itself and is the
basis of profitable farming. The
question never solves itself, but must
be done by the individual farmer.
The fact is apparent that il takes a
pretty strong effort to even maintain
the fertility of a farm, let alone in-
creasing it, yet ii can be done. A
farm may be handled in such way
that ii will become richer and richer
every year, but the man must have a
correct understanding of the basis
principles of the question. One of
the main sources of fertility is
through the medium of stable manure
yet this product is given but little at
tention on the average farm. One
half would be conservative estimate
of the average loss sustained before it
reaches the soil when needed to get
the most benefit out of manure it
should be spread on the land as soon
as possible after it is made. Every
moment il lays in pile it is losing
its most valuable parts, the practice
of drawing and spreading in the fields
as fast as made is the improved fas-
hion with our strictly up-to-date far
mers. The practice of growing large
ly of potatoes, beans and kindred
crops tender to reduce the fertility of
the farm because there is so compar-
atively little to be returned to the
soil from them. In fact there is a
chance for much profitable thought,
study and experiments along these
lines.

WONDERFUL ACCOMPLISHMENT.
Around the World I'm One Day.-A
Great Achievement in News
Catherine

In the matter OF newspapers, the
first impulse is, of course, to provide
yourself with the local journal, which
presents In detail the important hap
penings In your immediate vicinity,
the doings of your friends and neigh
0ors and keeps watch for you over your
city or county government. But in
these days of rapid TRANSIT and electri-
cal communication, the community is
no longer "a unit in itself. Even the
farmer, with his free rural delivery, is
beginning TO feel himself "a part of the
great whole, and TO recognize the ne
cessity for keeping in touch with the
world and its dofngs. This can be eff
fectively realized only by taking a
metropolitan daily, and, fortunately,
the developments OF modern journalism
have made it possible TO do this at so
slight an expense that it will hardly be
noticed. When you can get The De-
troit Evening News sor cents a week =,
you have no excuse for not knowing
the latest international, national and
state affairs. Its enterprise and actiy-
ity have laid all the nations OF the
globe and the islands of the sea under
tribute for the information they can
furnish, and the news in every depart
ment OF human endeavor, from empire
building TO berry picking flows into
its columns for the benefit OF its con-
tinually increasing and always salts
fled army OF readers. Itspends money
not only to get the news but to have it
written and edited in the brightest,
freshest and crispest fashion possible,
and TO provide such intelligent com
ment and explanation as double and
treble its value. If you see it in The

NATIONAL MARRIAGE

The bill introduced into congress by
Representative r. W. Taylor of Ohio,
proposing to give congress the power
TO enact national marriage and divorce
laws, has stirred up some remark.
Chairman Ray of the house committee
on the judiciary, supports Mr.. Taylor s
measure, and, indeed, favors an
amendment to the constitution, if that
be found necessary. to give congress
full control of marriages and divorces.
