table Raising Is Increasing
Every Year.

Gardeners and fruit growers, espe-
cially those residing near the larger
cities of the country, have been enjoy
ing a profitable business of late years
and the demand for their products is
still on the increase, says the Chicago
Chronicle. The handling of these ar

business enterprise, commanding mil
lions of dollars Of capital. Already
North America is the greatest fruit
growing country in the world, prac-
ticing the most scientific and progress
sive methods. The fower-growing in
terest is itself an important source of
national wealth. Where once we grew
tomatoes in an amateuriSh way as a
garden product, we now grow them in
blocks of hundreds of acres. So great
have become the horticultural inter
ests in this country that departments
of horticulture have been established
even in many small as well as the
large schools. The generation to come
will see the, different branches of hor-

which these special industries are sin

MOST ANCIENT OF CROWNS.
The Iron Crown of LOmbardy, Which
Is Said to Contain n Nail from
the Sayior's Cross.

Among the crowns preserving the
ancient form more than any others
now worn is the so-called iron crown
Of Lombardy, which is the most treas

of Argyle, in Leslie's Monthly. 1t is
of golden plaques" or panels rather
longer than they are high, but small
in size, so as not to rise above the top
of the head. They form, indeed, only
n jointed band of foliaged, embossed
relief-work, and one narrow wire of
iron binds them together in the inside
this wire having the repute of being
hammered out from one of the nails
Of our Saviour's cross. 1t was the en-
largement III these panels in other
crowns which led to the ross-band or
"closure" of the crown. Look at the
German crown and the Austrian, both
adaptations of that of the old EN-
perors of the holy Roman Empire"
The "arch of empire" became the re-
suit in the crown of the necessity for
fastening panels for protection for the
head from any stroke from above de-

and lands with stamps to such an eX-
tent that his Office went into another
classification and his salary was
raised several hundred dollars year.
THAT reminds me of another post

any increase in salary, had to buy
drinks for half the town just after
he failed to rise to an occasion.

The old newspapers of Boston were
"slow coaches" there is no denying
it, says Frank b. Sanborn, in the
Bool<man; but the country itself was
slow compared with the modern pace.
This was favorite jest when Mr.
Sanborn entered college at Harvard
80 years ago: "Why is the Adyer-
tiscr like poor mans pIaster?" Be
cause it is good for week back"
\ few years earlier, J. X. Mills, at
their club, had dared to say to Ma
than Hale, then at the top of Boston
journalism, when the veteran editor
was saying, "Such thing happened
of Saturday; | know it, because
that day my son Charles was born"
"No, Mr.. Hale, your son Charles was
born of Wednesday, but you didn't
find it out till Saturday"

"When Gen. Louis Botha passed
through Nryheid a few weeks ago"
says the London Chronicle, "the i'm
preston given by his good spirits was
that he was pleased with the terms.
The English commanding officer went
out to exchange courtesies with Botha,
and our infantry gave him a guard
of honor until he joined his own
burghers a few miles out Of Vryheid
All this is as might be expected, but
n strange incident occurred. The Eng
lish officer in charge of the escort was
presented to Gen. Botha's secretary,
Jacobus De Wet, who had been three
years at oxford, and to his aidde
camp, Louis Eslem, also a varsity man.
They were evidently anxious to get
speech with our lieutenant, and their
first words were: "Who won the boat
raca?"

PRESENT VOLCANIC ACTIVITY.
Regions of the Western Hemisphere
That Are the Most Liable to
an Upheaval.

The active volcanic groups of the
western hemisphere occur in five
widely separated regions, says Prof.
Robert Il. Hill, in Century.
l. The Andean group of volcanoes
of the equatorial region of western
South America.
2. The chain of some rs great Gin
der cones which stretch east and
west across the south end of the
Mexican plateau.
3. The Central American group,
with it's 81 active craters, extending
diagonally across the western ends
OF the east and west folds s the Car
ibbean corrugations, fringing the Pa
cific side of Guatemala, San Salvador
and Costa Rica. This is separated
from the Mexican group on the north
by large nonvolcanic area, the 18TH
mus of Tehuantepec, and on the
south from the Andean volcanoes by
the isthmus of Panama, where no ac-
tive volcanoes are found.
4. The chain of volcanoes of the
Windward islands, marking the east
ern gate of the Caribbean sea, stand
ing in line directly across the east
ern termini of the Caribbean noun
tains, trending east and west, and
parallel to the Central American
group similarly situated at their
western termini.
5. The volcanoes of Alaska and the
Aleutian islands.
