The Cleaners.

The old custom of cleaning in the
harvest fields. which recalls the Bibli-
cal story of Ruth and Naomi, is not
obsolete in England, and in HEREFORD
shire, Bedfordshire and the neighbor-
ing counties as soon as the wheat Is
gathered in the late days of August
there may be seen in the newly cleared
fields numbers of women and children
diligently picking up one by one the
scattered ears and forming them into
neat little sheaves, which they carry
in their hands until large enough to be
bound up. When the daylight fails,
all the booty is bound up in cloths and
carried home on the heads of the
cleaners. At home they thrash 1t out
by hand and sell the grain or use It
for their chickens. The gathering OF
a half peck is usually full days work
for child, and often woman spends
a whole day in gathering very little
more. Cleaning, however, is looked
upon somewhat in the light of picnic.
The mother and children leave home in
the morning, take with them food for
the day, and stay out in the fields until
nightfall.-Detroit Free Press.

onick Witted Pastor.

In Germany country preacher was
preaching a sermon when suddenly he
lost the thread of his discourse, and,
do what he would, he could not find it
again.
The congregation was greatly embar-
raised and was wondering what the
matter was when he startled it by ex-
claiming hurriedly, Pardon me, my
brethren, for pausing in my sermon,
but it seems to me that l smell fire
somewhere-and-and it might be well
TO see that it has not broken out in the
church or in any of the nearby houses"
Before the words were all uttered
the congregation was pouring out or
the church, each family being anxious
10 make sure that its home was not on
fire. 1t need hardly be said that the
fire existed only in the pastors mag
ination.

Thnnder Lore.


The natives of the Hawaiian Islands
considered thunder as being Mauna
Loa's echo from the clouds. This Gu
rious notion has crystallized o weather
proyerb which is now current among
many of the white residents Of the
isIands-viz, at viii rain today;
Mauna Loa shakes the clouds" In
this connection it may be remarked
that the early Scandinavian settlers in
Iceland believed that there were some
mysterious and supernatural connec-
fions between the roarings of Hecla and
the angry mutterings of Jove." In
England many of the peasantry still
plant the house leek-"Jupiter's beard
Ion their house roofs as preventive
against thunder, lightning and evil
spirits, a custom which reminds one of
Charlemagne's edict, eft habeat quis-
aue supra domum suam Jovis bar
bam."
Another widespread superstition, and
one that has been noted among the
tribes and nations from China TO Eng
land and from Cape Hatteras to the
Golden Gate. tells us that if the "claps
or reports of thunder come in even
numbers the storm will be of short
duration and very mild, but, on the
other hand, if they come in uneven
numbers, especially if the reports be
q series of five, nine or thirteen dis
tinct ciaps. much loss of life and prop
erty will result.

4 Typical South African Store,

O. r. Larson, of Bay Villa, Sundays
River, Cape Colony, conducts a store
typical of South Africa, at which can be
purchased anything from the proverbial
"needle to an anchor" This store Is
situated in valley nine miles from the
nearest railway station and about twenty
five miles from the nearest town. Mr.
Larson says: 81 am favored with the
custom of farmers within radius of
thirty miles, 10 many of whom | have
supplied Chamberlain remedies. All
testify to their value in a household
where doctors advice is almost out OF
the question. Within one mile Of my
store the population is perhaps sixty.
OF these, within the past twelve months,
no less than fourteen have been abso-
lutely cured by Chamberlain Cough
Remedy. This must surely be a re-
cord" For sale by Richard Gibson
Druggist.
