Nature and Plants.

DR.. Andrew Wilson writes: IF we
assumed that flowers were merely
evolved to crafty human senses we
should be entertaining a woefully linn
tied view of nature. The botanist will
tell you that everything about a flower
Is meant to favor one end. That end
IS the production of seeds and the prop
agation of the species. The colors of
fiowers-nay. even the little splashes of
a hue or tint seen on a petal-are in
tended to attract insects that they may
carry off the fertilizing dust. or pollen,
to other flowers of the same or neal
species and thus insure a sturdier race
as the result of cross fertilization. 1t
Is to this end also that your flowers are
many of them sweet scented. The per-
fume is another kind of invitation to
the insect world. The honey they Sc
crete forms a third attraction-the
most practical of all, perhaps. Then
the arrangement of the flowers on the
stalk, the times of opening and shut
ting of the flowers and the position Of
the stamens and pistils are all so many
features whereby nature is giving each
plant a help on the way"

Prize Sentences.

The winner of a prize of a guinea
offered by the London academy to the
person who should select the three
most pregnant and felicitous sentences
from any authors, chose the following
three quotations. The first was from
Ruskin:
Fancy plays like a squirrel in lis
circular prison and is happy; but imag-
ination is a pilgrim on the earth-and
her home is in heaven" The second
sentence was taken from the works Of
Mazzini: "Discouragement is but dis
enchanted egotism." The third was
the following from Robert Louis Ste
venson: 1.-THE true wisdom is TO be all
ways ~seasonable, and to change with
a good grace in changing circum-
stances. TO love p%laythings well as a
child, to lead an adventurous and hon
orable youth and to settle when the
time arrives into a green and smiling
age is to be a good artist in life and
deserve well of yourself and your
neighbor."

The First Flank Attack.

We have a record in the book OF
Joshua of ''the stratagem whereby Al
was taken" This tells us how 5000
men were set in ambush behind the
city. so that when the king of Al and
his hosts were drawn forward to the
fight a flank attack was made with
overwhelming success by the warriors
of Israel.
Not less disastrous was the fate Of
Leonidas and his brave little band Of
heroes when the Persians at Their
mopyle. led by a traitor, took them in
the a 4S0 3. G.
1t was by a mastery maneuver near
ly 300 years later that Hannibal dealt
one of his heaviest blows against the
hosts Of Rome. Having concealed his
brother Mage. with 1000 horse and
foot soldiers. among the reeds. he en
ticed the Roman forces across the river
Trebia. The legions fought bravely
and held their w until Mage, rising
from ambush. attacked them in the
ear and routed them.

BABIES IN SIAM.



All babies in Siam receive the same
name at birth. says Ernest Young, the
author of The Kingdom of the Yellow
Robe" This name is Dang. which
means red, and it is the only designa-
tion vOuchsafed the newcomer for some
months. For several years they wear
no clothing, though perhaps a string Of
beads or bracelets or anklets as orna-
ment. AT a child's birth a cord that
has been blessed by the priests is tied
around the outside Of the house, and
three balls of rice are thrown in lucky
directions" by three old women. who
are always present at such n time and
whose business it is to solicit for the
little II the patronage and protection
of sundry guardian angels. The cord
and the scattering about the premises
of a certain kind of native fruit are
supposed TO be ~efiicacious in preventing
the entrance of evil spirits. As a mat
ter of fact, what with the heat of the
climate and the cleansing fires kin
died in portable e%arthenware stoves
and the presence of many people in the
small. low ceilinged rooms. the atmos-
phere is so stiflingly hot and uncom-
Portable that it is doubtful whether
even evil wanderers from below would
are to stop there long.

A NOSE o NEWS.

Poets are born. not made" said the
retired newspaper man to the New Or

In much the same Way. For instance,
the born reporter will get a story II

desk, and, wanting to test the ability Of
two new men on the staff, l assigned
both Of them to the same story. OF
course neither knew the other was I'm
the neighborhood, and you ought to
have seen their respective reports. One
of them had a two column story that
created a sensation from one end of
the city to the other. while the other
turned in about two sticks of the
driest stuff l ever remember to have
read. / am satisfied that both the men
covered the story to the best of their
respective abilities. One of them simply
had a nose for news and the other
didn't. AS l said, reporters are born,
not made by studying Journalism in
the abstract. The natural born report
er is at home in a newspaper office, he
a live on ink and can sleep soundly

news in a dog biting a man. but he Is

item telling about a man biting a dog"

Harder Work.

When the clever writer and carica-
turist. Max Beerbohm, succeeded
George Bernard Shaw as dramatic crit
ic of the London Saturday Review. he
was told by the manager that Shaw
was getting such and such play. "Of
course, being comparatively inexperi-
enced," the manager added. You can
scarcely expect so MUCH
"Oh, yes, l shall" rejoined Mr.. Beer
bohm decisively. Indeed, l shall ex-
poet more. You see" lie explained,
"as Shaw knows the drama thoroughly
it was perfectly easy for him to write
about it. Whereas l know nothing
about it. and it Will be shockingly hard

A SCOUTS HARD LIFE.
Some OF the H~ardships and Dangers
That Must he Faced.

An unfortunate. says Leslie's Month
". was sent with n dispatch to n Of
the smaller outposts in the far NORTH
west. 1t was toward spring, when the
midday SIN thaws the surface of the
snow and the light frosts harden the
melted cr1sts TO a glace of Ice as daz-
zlingly bright as the binding flashes OF
sunlight from polished steel. The thaw
had crusted over the trail, and the
scout had TO keep a sharp eye on the
way not 20 lose the path altogether.
suddenly the midday sun developed ex-
traordinary hues. Magenta, purple and
black patches began to dance on the
SNOW. alternately with wheels and
rockets Of cheese colored fire. Then the
light went out altogether, though the
man knew that it was broad day. He
had become snow blind. The only thing
was TO give his horse the bit.
Tic horse stood stock still. By that
time he knew that he had lost the trail
altogether or the broncho would have
followed any visible path. He wheeled
the horse about. 1t still refused to go
Oh, and then the man inferred that the
crust Of ice had been so hard that the
horse could not follow back the way
it had come. That night the trooper
slept under saddle blankets, with the
faithful horse standing sentry.
Fer FIVE days the trooper wander
ed blindly over the prairies, losing all
count of time, eating snow to qucnch
his thirst and sleeping in the holes that
the broucho had paved through the
ice crust to the under grass. The troop
or was now too weak to mount and
keep the saddle. As a last hope the
thought struck him that if he unsad-
died his horse and turned it loose il
might find its way back to the fort.
and 50 notify his friends that he was
lost. He did this, but the faithful crea-
ture refused to leave the man lying IN
the snow and stood over him in spite
of all his efforts to drive it off. On the
sixth day the mail carrier found the
pair. The trooper was severely frozen.
but tie rider and horse lived to see
many another days service.
