Canary Seed" Grass.
rom Country Life in America.

From Country Life in America
By roadsides near dwellings and on va
cant lots where people throw household
waste, there is occasionally found in sum-
mer a slender grass a foot or two high,
whose culms are terminated by scaly heads
about the size of white clover tops, but
rather more compact and in shape like a
birds egg, little end up. Each scale of the
head is Tapped over the next, like shingle
upon it's neighbor on roof, and is white,
striped with green veins-a color arrange
ment which makes an appearance of sim
gularly delicate beauty and renders the
plant readily recognizab BILE.
While this grass, it is needless to say,
does not speak with a tongue except in
the poetical fashion familiar to frequenters
OF the Forest of Arden, yet its presence in
American soil does In most cases, convey
to those who know Its name a specific mes
sage. The pretty heads bobbing at you
state, in effect, that canary bird lives not
far away and some time earlier in the year
there was a housekeeping in his cage
the rubbish from which was dumped on this
particular spot, and out of that refuse the
tell-tale grass has grown. 1t is, in short
canary grass, parent of the shiny, yeliowish
seeds that are Dickys staff of life.
Like the bird which shares its name the
plant is not American by choice for our
climate is not just to it's liking To be sure,
scattered seeds Of 1t, as We see start a
spasmodic colony now and then by
waysides; but its heart is in its old home.
in the warm regions contiguous to the
Mediterranean sea, where by the way,
1t serves to feed men as well as birds.
From an aesthetic standpoint few grasses
are more attractive than this little waif
and it's history is always sure to interest
people who see 1t for the first time.

was officious enough to inform the doctor
that the contents of the "Widdy's" oft-re-

invalid, but by the tresses of his sisters,
who were blessed with splendid masses Of
"woman's browning glory" When Biddy

RURAL SCENERY.
A Plea That Stop Be Put to It's Con-
tinued DETACHMENT.

From the Boston Transcript.
A bill was introduced in the last session
of the French parliament which may af-
ford some practical suggestions here as to
ways and means This was bill taxing
heavily all advertising signs along the rail-
road lines of France. 1t was introduced
by the president of the Society for the Pro-
lection Of Landscape, and 1t Is stated that
a similar society, which exists in England
has undertaken to accomplish some good
in the same direction.
1t is not supposed that the opposition
to the reform would come chiefly from
the farmers who derive a small income
from the advertising firms for the use
of their land for these purposes. few
dollars paid to land owners for the privi-
lege of making their fields. fences and
barns resound with the brazen praises
of pills, plasters and ointments secures
their adhesion, yet one would like to think
that this class can be educated to realize
the commercial value of unspoiIed natural
scenery. If 1t comes to question of
what pays the best, in the long run a very
pretty argument can be made to show the
eXpedisncy of preserving the natural fea-
lures of landscape, free from the encroa CHI
ments OF the philistine paint pot with its
lurld and imperative admonitions. In a
recent article on Alaska, Henry Gannett,

wisdom Is to go slowly, endeavoring to

commons.

TRUsT-MADE ARTICLES.
MIR. Livingston Wants Congress to

Representative Livingston Of Georgia is

nd fields of the Armenians Commissions


and fields OF the Armenians. Commissions
have frequently been sent from CONSTANT
nople to reform the district, and according
to official reports, the "reforma ton has
been accomplished. Last November new
governor, Mahmud Pasha, was appointed,
and he took the work Of reformation in
hand more seriously than any of his prede-
cessors since government was organized
in that district, a quarter Of century ago.
He made 1t clear to the beys that he ex-
pected them to obey him. and he also in
spired the Kurds with wholesome fear. A
good administrator, however. Is not to be
tolerated in this country, and the beys and
Kurdish chiefs, supported by Zekki Pasha,
commander of the 4th Army Corps, who
covets the post for his brother succeeded
in obtaining Mahmud Pashas removal.
The district may now be expected to re-
lapse into perfect anarchy. 1t may here
be remarked that the Kuggle-Cash Kurds
who inhabit persm have some secret rites
which resemble the holy communion, and
which, with the names of villages and the
remains of churches and monasteries clear
ly point to their Christian ancestry.

Squirrel Raising Corn.

From the New York World.
In the yard Of the California chipmunk
is strange thing. This squirrel is a short
tailed little rascal who darts fl and out Of
a hole in old stump, watching people
on the outside all the time. Last spring
when the attendants began to feed him
corn, as they always do in the spring to
make the burrowing denizens fat and sleek
after a hard winter, he carefully collected
all the corn that he did not want to eat
and buried it in the black loan in the bot
tom of his cage. The sun kissed the plant
ed seed and it grew. AS the green blades
shot up the chpmunk carefully kept
down all the blades of grass and weeds
ard allowed the corn to grow The wise
little fellow did not run up and down
the stalks of corn, seeming to know,
by some instinct implanted in his tiny
breast through generations of maze-Ioving
ancestors, that it would injure the fruit
Now the stalks are fully grown and the
large, milky ears are filling out with kerr
nels of corn. The chipmunk guards his
cornfeld carefully, and when the atten-
dant enters his yard he becomes fearfuly
excited, scolding away like one gone mad
He drives off the English sparrows, too.
When the corn is ripe naturalists say he
will shell 1t and hide 1t in his hole in the
old stump.

His Attitude Toward Us During the
Revolution.


No one can accuse Frederick of not low
ing his country. He loved her too well TO
risk anything for the American cause The
only love he gave to the handful OF colo
nlsts in the American woods was the love
one bears for the enemies of his enemies
Perhaps We should oe grateful for what he
dld not 90. He might have leagued himself
directly to England. He might have given
his own magnifcently trained army TO help
put down England's rebelious colonisis
He might even have pronounced Washing
ton an incompetent commander. So might
have done the Empress Of Russia, the EN-
peror OF Germany, the King of Sweden, or
any OF the monarchs who. deaf TO the
American cause, arranged the selfish
armed neutrality" to pick I'D and patch
together the fragments of marine COM
merce as they were scattered by the blows
of the ocean proprietors, the English the
French, the Spanish and the Dutch Fred
erick was only too glad to Join them and
so fix permanently his attitude toward the
American cause. He has fully as much
claim to American remembrance in graft
tude as had any member Of the armed neu-
trality. Let the American people not be
satisfied until they are offered a full COM
plement of this array of neutral nonarchs
But In the meanwhile let not the question
be raised whence a statue is to come
of the unfortunate Louis XVI, who was not
a neutral and whose blood money as IL
proved TO be, was spent for the American
cause.

How Cornwall Fishermen Net Pill
chards for British Markets.

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
The old debate as to whether pilchards
are not Identical with sardines has now
been decided in the affirmative. According
to Mr. Afialo the word sardine must be
taken to mean Indefinitely small fish pre-
served in Oil, and not an individual species.
This small fish may be pilchard or it may
be a sprat That is to say, naturalists do
not recognize a fish called the sardine; the
word merely signifies a method of prepara-
ton. The point may be disputed but can
not be controverted. Visitors to Cornwall
sometimes deny 1t on the ground that the
the average sardine. but they should re-
member that the fish are usually packed
minus head and tail, which means a con-
siderable diminution in size.
For centuries this transformation of pill
chards into sardnes has been going on. We
read in Morysons Itinerary" a book IA
miliar to Shakespeares day, that the in
habitants Of Cornwall make great gain by
the fishing of pilchards, which they salt
and dry in the smoke, and export an huge
multitude of them yearly into Spain and
Italy" This practice Of smoking them
gave the fish the name of fumadoes, cor
rupted locally into fair maids"
IT'S the silver fair maids that cause such strife
'Twixt the master-seiner and his drunken wife.
The fish are not preserved in this man
ner now, but are piled and pressed IN lay
ers Of salt. Being thoroughly sailed and
relieved of superffrous fluids they are taken
from the fish cellars and dispatched in bar
rels to the local or foreign ''sardiners." The
difference in size between these Cornish
"sardines' and those caught on the coasts
of France Is really a result OF difference in
netting, not in the species of the fish. The
Cornish fishers use a net with a compare
lively large mesh, this letting the smaller
and more delicate fish escape; but the
French, with a closer mesh pay special at
tention to the smaller fish. The men of St
Ives and Newlyn are very conservative, as
will be remembered by their agitation on
the Sunday question; but the adoption of
closer mesh would be move in the right
direction.

Oldest Living Diplomat.
from the London Times.

From the London Times.
An interesting ceremony took place in
Rio de Janeiro on July 20 last, when an
aged Brazilian, Niscount Barbacena, ceie-
brated his one-hundredth birthday. A COM
memorative session was arranged by the
Brazilian Historical and Geographical In
stitute In honor of the event, and the Illus
trious centenarian himself replied to the
praises of his robust old age. The British
colony in Rio de Janeiro, which was large
ly represented in the proceedings had al
ready before presented him with a gold
medal on the occasion of the diamond ju-
bilee of Queen Victoria. Viscount Barba-
cena goes out a great deal, and has re-
tained so much vigor and activity that only
a few years ago he was often seen to jump
from a Rio tramcar while in motion. He
was educated in England, and was present
at the coronation Of George w. He is be-
lieved to be the oldest living diplomat, an
in 1928 he was appointed secretary Of the
Brazilian legation In London under hit
father. the Marquis Barbacena.
