Qualified to Travel.

In his Confessions of q Caricaturist
Harry Furniss tells the following story
of his brother-in-law, a man who had
spent his life in London:
He was also an inveterate and clever
story teller and of course occasionally
made a slip, as for instance on rail
way journey to Brighton once, when he
found himself alone with a stranger.
The stranger in conversation happened
to ask nv relative casually if he were
fond of travelling.
"Traveling? l should rather think
So" he replied airily, and, imagining
he was impressing some one who was
something in the city" he continued,
"Yes, sir, I'm pretty experienced trav-
eler. Been mostly round the world and
all that kind of thing, you know, and
had my share Of adventures, can tell
your
After a bit he gained more confidence
and launched into details, giving the
stranger the benefit of his experience
"Why. sir, you read in books that hunt
ers of big game, such as tigers, watch
their eyes. NOL DIl VI IT, WHAT SVu
have got to do is to watch the tail
That's the thingl 1t mesmerizes the
animal, so to speak, and you have him
at your mercy"
On arriving at the hotel he. found
that his travelling companion had just
signed his name in the visitors book
1t was Richard f. Burton, one of the
greatest travellers of the age. My
brother-in-law fastened to apologize to
Sir Richard for his absurd tales. He
had no idea, of course, to whom he was
retailing his yarns.
Burton laughed. My dear sir, not
word, please. / was more entertained

will never tell her mistress that she Is
dissatisfied or has had some better
place offered her. That would be un-
pardonably rude. Instead she asks
for a few days leave of absence. This
is willingly granted, for Japanese sery-
ants have 10 settled time for taking
holidays.
At the end of the given time the mis-
tress will begin TO wonder what has be-
come of the girl. She is not left to
wonder long. \ letter arrives couched
in the most polite and humble terms
and giving any excuse but the real one
Sometimes il will be that she has
found herself too weak for service or
that illness at home detains her. What
ever il may be, the plea is never con-
tested but accepted as final and a new
servant engaged. Then, after some
weeks have passed, very likely after
taking a fresh place, the old servant
will turn up one day, express her
thanks for past kindnesses and regrets
at not returning in time. will take her
arrears of wages and her bundles and
disappear forever So the matter ends
with the kindest semblanee of feeling
on both sides.
If the mistress on her part does not
wish to have the girl back, she will not
tell her so TO her face. but will send
word Even when servants come on
trial for few days they often leave
nominally to fetch their belongings or
make arrangements for their return,
never because they have any com
| plants to make. Any discomfort is

cion of bad manners or of anything

A STRANGE FUNERAL,


Burial of an Elephant by Elephants
In N River Bed.
There is no doubt that the elephant
naturally cunning, and the following
extraordinary Incident related by a
planter from Csylon is only another
proof: 81 went after a herd of eight
Elephants" he says. after stalking
got a chance at the biggest of the herd
and dropped it at the first shot About
two hours afterward had the tail and
feet cut off and taken to the bungalow.
Next morning I went to the spot to
look at the elephant and to my surprise
found no trace of the body. After look
Ing round saw that the herd had been
back during the night, and soon dis
covered a track where they seemed to
have retired in a body. Following this
up, I eventually came upon the dead
elephant lying at the bottom Of rocky
stream. From the tracks it was quite
evident that the body had not been
rolled but carried to the bank, and 1t
was plain that it had been taken
through the long grass which grew on
the bank into the stream. My neigh
bors were incredulous until I showed
them where the elephants tafl and
feet had been cut or and where the
body lay in the stream, which proved
conclusively that by some means or
other the body had been got over the
intervening space in the night 1t is
difficult to understand how elephants
with their trunks and feet could raise
and support the dead body of COM
rade. However, they seem to have
managed to do it, and it is pity no
human eyes saw this strange funeral" !"

subsurface Packing.

On fall plowing subsurface packing
Of the ground Immediately after plow-
ing gave forty-two pounds more wheat
and a cents more profit per acre than
were obtained from the check plots. On
spring blowing similar results were
obtained. 1t took a little less water to
produce the crops on the land which
was subsurface packed, and the soil
contained a slightly higher percentage
of moisture at the close of the season
than was found in ordinary plowing.
The subsurface packer is heavy disk
roller. The disks sink through the
loose soil at the surface, tending to
firm and pack the ground near the bot
tom of the furrow. This establishes O
better capillary connection with the
firm soil below, which tends to draw
the water up into the surface soil, thus
causing Il more rapid decay Of stubble
and other matter turned under by the
plow and fastening the termination of
the seed and the early growth of crop.
In all experiments the subsurface pack
er has given good results.-Professor
Ten Eyck, Kansas.

FOUR MATCHED HORSES.

Ehey Were COIorcd Black, Just as
the Dealer Had Said.
Lord Mansfield, the famous lord CHIEF
Justine of England, had bitter preju-
dice against horse dealers, which, it Is
said, had its rise in bitter disappoint-
ment he had experienced at the hands
of one of them. When he was appoint
ed lord chief justice in 1855 he wished
to have four black horses without
white hair fer his carriage. After con-
siderable difficulty the four black
horses were found and approved, for
they were handsome horses and just
what the lord chief justice wanted.
The price, of course, was heavy one;
II always is under such circumstances.
For time all went well and his lord
ship was well satisfied with his bar
gain. Then one horse began to develop
n white star and another white fet-
lock and another was disfgured by a
white blaZe-indeed, in all of them In
one place or another the hated white
appeared.
The Judge sent for the horse dealer
who had supplied the horses and
threatened him with all kinds of pains
and penalties. That worthy, however,
was not in the least put out by the
wrath of the noble lord. He insisted
that he had not misrepresented the
horses on his bill and pointed out on
that document being produced that he
had sold to his lordship four horses
colored black This of course did
away with any legal proceedings, but
the incident was never forgotten by
Lord Mansfield, who was scarcely ever
known to give horse dealer the bene-
fit of the edoubt-Horseman.

SELECTING SEED CORN.
How TO Examine Kernels and Deter
mine Chemical Contents.

How to Examine Kernels and Deter
mine Chemical Contents.
The method of making 4 chemical Sc
lection of ears of seed corn by a simple
mechanical examination of the kernels
is based upon the fact that the kernel
pf corn is not homogeneous in structure,
but consists of several distinct and
readily observable parts of markedly
different chemical composition. Aside
from the hull which surrounds the ker-
mel. there are three principal parts in a
grain of corn:
First.-The darker colored and rather
hard and horny layer lying next to the
hull, principally in the edges and to-
ward the tip end of the kernel, where
it is about three millimeters, or one
eighth of an inch, in thickness.
Second.-The white, starchy appear
ing part occupying the crown end of
the kernel and usually also Immediate
ly surrounding the germ.
.hird.-The germ itself, which occu-
pies the central part of the kernel to-
ward the tip end.
These different parts of the corn ker-
mel can be readily recognized by merely
dissecting single kernel with a pocket
knife
The horny layer, which usually con-
stitutes about Go per cent of the corn
kernel, contains large proportion of
the total protein in the kernel.
The white, starchy part constitutes
about 20 per cent of the whole kernel
