just about to sink. Why does it not
float right on the surface, like piece
of wood, since it floats at all? Because
its specific gravity is only fraction
less than that of water, and just a
little more density would make it sink.
We notice, also, that the camphor
does not dissolve in the water. If we
had used alcohol. however, it would
have sunk and dissolved, both. For
the specific gravity of camphor is
greater than that of alcohol and alco-
hol has the power of dissolving cam
phor.
Another thing we notice, as already
mentioned, is that the camphor par
ticlcs cling to each other; that is due
to what the scientists call cohesion.
But the strangest part of our little
experiment is the moving about of the
scorpion on the water. Camphor al
ways moves about in that way when
you put it into water Some persons
say that this is due to the elasticity of
the vapor that camphor gives off and
others say that it is due to superficial
tension, a mysterious force that is
found in the surface of liquids. We
shall not attempt to decide that ques-
ton; we only know that We see the
scorpion swim and that we have made
very interesting experiment.

The TRUCK PATCH.

You may bend your heads to listen to the
whisper Of the trees.
You can lie a-feelin' dopey I'm the dronln'
Of the bees
4 You can talk OF mornin' slories hanglH
swayin' on their stems,
An Of vio!ets a-noddin' crowned with deWy
diadems-
All Of which Is sweet, grant you-swayin'
bloom and dronin' bee,
But the little truck patch yonder sings .
sWeeter song to me.
I Jest like ter sink my face in the sweet
crinkly lettuce rows
Till I rise red-cheeked an smilin' with the
dew drops on my nose; @
Bet love the fresh sweet lettuce with it,
crisp and crinkly ways.
Bet at these here days of springtims are
my green an salad days.
When putter 'mongst the trellises to coax
the climbin' pea
Bet that little OIL truck garden sings glory
song to me! ....Ir .-,....
Like to tumble where Strawberries are Jest
sorter hidin' out. '-"
An where green big bellied cabbages are
whisperin' of krout.
An the little OIL crisp radishes an onions
snuggle down. X S. .....
There's poem in potatoes when their tops
are turning brown!
could almost sing an anthem to the
luscious black-eyed pea,
An the roastin' ears o. springtime-bett they
all appeal to me!
Bet the larkspur an the violet are pretty
things ard sweet,
But they simply aren't in it when you're
cravin' stuff to eat,
An the perfumed breeze stirs sweetly In
the knee-deep prairie grass
But they's nothin' sways my heartstrings
like a patch o. garden sass!
You kin prance across the prairie singin'
loud an clear an free,
But they's nothing but a truck patch sings
A. half glad enough fer me.

A cAMpHoR SCORPION.
An Experiment In Tension Which 10
Highly Amazing and Of SofeA.
tito Value.

The boy or girl who 10 fond of max.
ing experiments in simple science may
find amusement and instruction in .
basin of water and a few Jumps of
camphor of different sizes.
Let Us show you how. Somewhere
in the house, perhaps, We can find some
gum camphor; or if there is none there,
we can get some at trihing expense
from the druggist.
Now, with our basin of water ready,
let us throw into it handful Of the
camphor, first breaking it up, if neces-
sary, into Jumps of various sizes, even
as small, some of them, as grains.
The camphor will float on the water
and if we use small stick we can cas-
lily arrange the Jumps in the form of .
scorpion. We find, as we arrange
them, that they retain the position we
put them in, the Jumps adhering to
each other so that we do not have to
hold them in place.
Let us wait for few moments now,
and we shall see the scorpion begin to
move about in the water, waving its
claws and wagging it's tail, just as if it
had life.
So far, we have attempted merely to
amuse ourselves, but the experiment
has its scientific value, and therefore
we may get a little information
from it.
We notice, first, that the scorpion
floats about on the water, but is al
most under the surface; that is to say,
it barely floats and looks as if it were

When Lydia E. Pinkhams Rene
dies were first introduced skeptics
all over the country frowned upon
their curative claims, but as year
after year has rolled by and the
little group of women who had been
cured by the new discovery has
since grown into a vast army of
hundreds of thousands, doubts and

as by a mighty food, until to-day
the great good that Lydia E.

ARTISTS INTERESTED.
Americans Hea rtily Support the Plan
for = Pernan ent Salon
in Paris.

American and French artists in Paris
are much interested in a midwinter
salon to be established at Antilles.
Ground has already been donated for
the purpose, and a permanent palace is
to be erected. The salon is especially
designed to attract winter dwellers on
the RIVE Riviera, thus bringing artists
and amateurs together on more salts
factory footing than even in the big
salons Of Paris. A number of prami-
nent American artists have already
given their allegiance.

LOVES THE PRAIRlES.
Miss Anna Gray 10 DeMghaed With Her
Western Canada Home.

Anna c. Gray is q young lady, for
merly of Michigan She is now .
resident Of Western Canada, and the
following published in the Brown
City (Mich.) Banner are extracts
from a friendship letter written
about March IS to one of her lady
friends in that vicinity. In this let
ter is given some idea Of the climate,
social, educational and religious con-
ditions of Alberta, the beautiful land
Of sunshine and happy homes. Over
one hundred thousand Americans
have made Western Canada their
home within the past five years, and
in this year upwards OF $4,000 will
take up homes there.
Miss Gray took her leave for Dds
bury, Alberta, the homo of her sister
and other relatives and friends on
Jan. 10 last, and after two months
sojourn in her western prairie home,
she writes of it as follows: II know
shall grow to love the prairies. We
have beautiful view of the noun
tains, and it seems wonderful 20 me
to see home after home for miles,
and it is becoming thickly settled all
around us. With the exception of the
last few days, which have been cold
and stormy, we have had beautiful
spring weather ever since I came.
The days are beautiful. I call this
the land of the sum- as it seems to
be always shining, the nights are
cold and frosty. On arriving here, I
was so greatly surprised in every
way. Didsbury is quite q business
little town. All tho people I meet
are so pleasant and hospitable. They
have four churches in Didsbury-the
Baptist, Presbyterian, Evangelical
and Mennonite. The Evangelicals
have just completed handsome
church, very large and finely fur
nished, costing $4,000. They have q
nice literary society here, meets
every two weeks. They have fine mu-
steal talent here.

HANEUVERS SHOULD BE

Scene of Army Drills Should Be Upon
Ground Where II Would
Have to Fight.

New York and other Eastern cities
have been insisting for several years
that the army maHeuvers should be held

the Atlantic coast. where an attack
would be made by foreign foe i'm case
Of war
Within 300 miles Of New York there
are $1,000 organized militsamen available
for such maneuvers- In support OF the
contention that Tnaneuvers should not
be held in remote parts Of the country
the Army and Navy Journal for this
week says.
I'm his report on the maneuvers in
Kentukcy, Colonel Parker lays stress
upon the advantages possessed by the
ground used at West Point. Ky. be-
cause of its resemblance to the land In
the vicinity of the great centers of pop
ulation in the East and along the At
lantic coast The obvious suggestion IS
that our sOIdiers should be familiarized
with the territory they viii have 10 fight
over in case of an attack from foreign
power The wisdom of this suggestion
Is apparent But instead Of choosing for
army maneuvers ground resembling that
which is most likely to become the seat
Of conflict. why not assemble our SOL
dieTs for their annual practice on the
ground with which they should become
familiar? The autumn maneuvers for
next year should be held somewhere
within a circle having "a radius Of 80
miles. measuring from New York city
