TREES THAT SAVE HOUSES.
Certain Kinds That Are Believed to
BE Proof Against the Shafts
of Jupiter.

Everyone likes to see homes sur
rounded by trees, yet many people are
afraid that by doing so they invite
danger from lightning shocks. 1t will
be, therefore, of general interest to
learn that trees with leaves that are
long-pointed or spear-shaped are light
ming proof. This curious theory has
been set down as a fact by a Canadian,
John Hugh Ross. That it is disputed
does not detract from it's interest.
"Willow trees are never struck" he
states, with decision. "Willow and
other long-pointed leaves droop in fine
weather and to a greater degree on the
approach of rain or electrical disturb
ance. Trees that are not upright in
growth, but spreading or dropping, are
seldom struck, but pines, oaks and
Lombardy poplars are. These are all
upright.
'"Trees with thick, smooth upper
cuticule are struck often, without re-
gard to their height. Trees of this class
should not be planted near dwellings.
The coming of an electric storm may
often be detected by the dropping at
titude of certain plants and leaves;
they are one of natures many warn
ings of coming events Plants that I
have noticed to droop before rain or
electric disturbance are the wild OK
ais, Canada or wood violet, wild vines,
parsley, vetches and the dicentras.
When the wild vine leaves droop take
your umbrella with you. Poplars, not
the silver variety; willows, sumacs,
naples and the elm droop more or less.
The elm, often 60 or so feet high, is
rarely struck. Farmers leave it when
clearing the ground. 1t is a thing of
beauty and offers shade to the cattle
and safety during a storm. The farm
er does not understand why, but he
knows the elms are rarely struck with
lightning"

OF PLANTS.
The skunk-Cabbage Melts lee and
Snow I'm Its Preparations for
the Spring.

Lovers of outdoor life have only
good words for that strong-scented
denizen of swamps, the skunk-cab-
bage. This plant, hardy, brave, I'M
daunted in any weather, breaks the
ice about it even in January, and the
careful observer may find it at that
unpropitious season already making
its preparations for the spring. The
author of ''The Brook Book" says:
"One cold day in early February l
was proving along the underbrush
near my favorite cabbage patch, when
/ became aware that some n else
was also crunching about in the snow
there. This person, dressed like my
self in short skirt and heavy boots,
was intent on some odd business which
I could not at first determine. She
was bending down, thrusting her hand
into the snow, and l could see that
she held some small cleaning instru-
ment. 1t proved to be a thermometer.
"'Good morning!' said l. AS she re-
turned my greeting, she thrust the
thermometer down into an opening
in the snow.
"'May I look?' I asked, suiting the
action to the word.
"The opening in the now had not
been made by her hand, as I supposed.
1t was rounded smoothly, and down at
the bottom 1 could see the top of a
skunk-cabbage hood.
slow came the air-holes there?
What did the thermometer mean? I
looked inquiringly at my new friend.
She showed me that some of the open
ings were small, and others as much
as eight inches across. In no case
was the hood of the plant on a level
with the surface of the ground. In the
larger ones the cavity was widest at
the bottom, the snow walls forming an
arch over the top.
"While we were talking the Their.
mometer had been registering the
temperature of one of the plants. Sine
gently drew it forth and read its rec
ord. This she iotted down in her note
book against the date. She then let
me look at her notes.
"We found that the temperature of
the plant was. in many cases, consid-
erably above that of the atmosphere.
The largest difference between the
two was four degrees, Centigrade, or
seven and one-ffth degrees, Fahren-
heit.
"T thought when I first noticed
those holes said she, that the skunk
cabbages must be at work generating
enough heat to melt the snow around
them. Now I am sure of it. I have
visited this place every day for a week,
and my record shows that the plant
not only keeps from freezing itself,
but is able to melt out a breathing
hole besides"

the ambassadors and consuls aecredit-
ed to the various countries of the
world, although the foreign secretary
has the first word in these latter ncm-
nations, and he has the nomination
and appointment of all the principal
and minor ministers of the state and
the political officers of the household.
The king is the head of the church
in theory. the premier in practice.
When a bishop or other high dignitary
of the church dies it is the prime min
lister who looks about for a successor,
TO whom he offers the vacant see, or
other ecclesiastical post, and on the
l%atter's acceptance the gentleman's
name is recommended to the king, who
formally ratifes the appointment by
virtue of his Office as head of the
church.
The premier, too, appoints the vice
roy of India and fills the various gov.
ernor generalships of the colonies.
The premier is the principal stage
manager of parliament. He virtually
closes and open st. Stephens and rati-
ties the making up Of the programme
of each succeeding session. In short,
the premier of Great Britain is an un.
crowned king of power.

CUSTOM GIVES HIM POWER.
The ~ULbounded Authority of the Eng
lish Premier Has No BASIS In the
Nations Law,

The prime minister of England,
strange as it may seem, has no legal
status; neither has any of the mem
beers of his cabinet. Both derive their
functions and authority from long
custom only, which has never yet been
ratified by act of parliament. The
premier is first minister, but not eX-
actly the head of the government.
Although exercising the powers at
taching to the office makes him prac-
tically such. The real head of the
government is, of course, the king,
who is represented in the executive
administration by the cabinet. The
premier is the first member of that
administration, the leader of his par
ty, the mouthpiece of parliament and
the first channel of communication be-
tween the king and the commons and
lords.
There is no secretary to the cabinet,
for the reason that no notes are ever
taken at its meetings, the premier re-
porting verbally to the sovereign the
principal events which have taken
place and the questions discussed.
The premiership is not an Office by
itself, and it carries no salary with it,
like the other government ministerial
positions. The premier must be some
thing else as well; hence, all past hold
ers of the office, right away from the
time of Charles, have held one other
office at least besides, sometimes two.
Mr.. Pitt, for example, who was prime
minister during the last quarter of the
eighteenth century, appropriated the
posts of first lord of the treasury and
chancellor of the eXchequer, so that
Mr.. Balfour's triple government quail
fcations, now that he is premier, is
based upon precedent. Besides the
latter he is also lord privy seal and first
lord of the treasury.
There are four lords of the treas.
ury, and the first is usually prime
minister, while the other three are
known by the well-known parliament
tary term of Junior lords" Mr..
Gladstone's several premiershiRs were
held on the lines of the first lord
only, and previous premiers. including
Disraeli, Melbourne and Lord John
Russell, also held the premiership as
first lords of the treasury. All the
honors that people receive from the
hands of the king are recommended
in the first instance by the premier,
t.,lr =, L.
of the constitution, has the right to
nominate candidates for royal recog-
milton, and the sovereign ~ratifies all
that is done by the premier. The
prerogatives of the monarch are al
most in effect those of the prime min
lister, who has, as we have just shown,
the making of dukes and lords and
men and with minor titles:

The Adirondack Fnrest.

The state of New York now has a
baby forest in the Adirondacks where
trees are being raised to reforest Il
denuded tract. This has brought the
state fish, game and forest commission
to the consideration of a project to
establish tree nurseries in the woods
on much the same principle of the
state fish hatcheries. After trees have
had the proper growth they would be
given free to citizens and municipal.
tiles, and used where needed on state
lands. In this way it is hoped to re.
claim much denuded land. The propo.
sition is c~ommendable. 1t emphasizes,
however, the folly of permitting what
remains of the Adirondack forest
lands to be cut over, if the state later
is to be at considerable expense to un.
dertake the slow process of reforesta.

Literature as n Trade,

To write successfully mean to serve
a long and hard apprenticeship; it
means to do many things badly in or.
der to learn to do a few things we'll;
to read many authors, and good ones;
to live with words till one knows their
value, and it means, too, that one must
know something about the reality of
life. In short, writing is a trade, just
like bookbinding or typesetting. It is
different, of course; it has a higher
side, we believe, but to think only of
the higher side, and ignore the trade
part of it, is to prepare ones self for a
great disappointment. Decidedly the
novice should not expect to earn pin
money by setting down her day
dreams, when successful authors are
obliged to slog daytime and night
time in order to learn the mechanics

THE SAUERKRAUT PEDDLER.
A Peripntetic Merchant Who Is Com.
mon to h German Section of
New York City,

h regular and popular visitor to
the German inns and taverns of the
East side is the sauerkraut man, SAYS
the New York Post. He brings his
calling with him from the old country,
n finds a more profitable field in
New York than in Berlin or Hamburg.
His equipment is quite curious. He
wears a blue or white apron running
from his neck nearly to the ankles,
and from his shoulders is suspended a
circular metal box which goes half
around his waist. 1t has three large
compartments, two of which are sur
rounded by hot water. In one are
w~ell-cooked Frankfurter sausages,
n in the other thoroughly boiled
sauerkraut. In the third compart-
ment is potato salad. He carries in his
hand a. basket in which are small
plates and steel forks. One sausage
and a generous spoonful of sauerkraut
and potato salad cost five cents. All
three articles are of good quality,
well cooked and seasoned. He finds
his best customers in the bowling
alleys, where the eXertion demanded
by the game produces large appetites.
Next to these are the taverns which
do not supply food with their drink.
Last of all are the halls and meeting.
rooms where different societies assem-.
BILE. His nightly stock consists of so
sausages, seven pounds of sauerkraut,
n as much more of salad. On bad
evenings he takes only half as much
stock as on fair ones. Some of the
more fortunate peddlers have ar
engagements with clubs which pay them
a very fair profit upon their goods.
Others are free-lances who visit every
place where they think they ear eff.
feet a sale. The metal boxes are very
ingenious and are made in Germany.
The metal is some variety of pewter,
and the fitting of the compartments
and of the entire affair to the body
is very accurate. The covers are so
well hinged and snug at the edges that
when the owner falls down he is not
liable to spill any of the contents.
The contrivance costs, some three dol
lars in Germany, and about five dol
lars in New York. A few of the ped
dlers appeal to educated palates and
carry with them Cervelat, Book, Reh,
Leberwurst and Vienna, as we'll as
F~rankfurters. These fancy sausages
usually bring ten cents instead of the
regulation five.
The forks are washed after the Gus
toner has finished his little meal, and
from repeated cleansing and use are
as bright as silver. The plates, on the
other hand, are so banged and bruised
that they might be easily mistaken for
crackle ware.

Had Been Punished Enough.

1t was a boy with a very subdued
aspect and a long scratch on his nose
who came to his teacher in one of
the large London board schools and
handed her a note before taking his
seat and becoming deeply absorbed
in his book.
The note read as follows: "Miss
b.: Please excuse James for not be-
ing there yesterday. He played
trooant, but I should think you
needn't lick him for it, as the boy
he played trooant with an him fell
out, an the boy licked him, an a man
they sauced caught him an licked
him, an the driver Of a cart they
hung on licked him, an I gave him
another one for saucing me for tell
ing pa; so you need not lick him un-
til the next time. I should say he
thinks he'd better keep in school
hereafter"
