YANKEE INVENTIONS.
Newspaper in the Philip-
pines Describes an Ingenious
American Continuance,

Admiral Dewey was a prominent figure at
the Saratoga races. Unusually he occupied a
box. One afternoon a little party Of farmers
came up to shake hands with him, and there
after, naturally, the talk turned to agricul-
ture, says the Boston Post.
When l was in the Philippines" said Ad-
mlral Dewey, "anAmerican resident brought
me, one day, a Chinese paper. He said this
paper would interest me because it con-
tanned an account of an American invention,
Then, with a smile, he translated a para
graph that ran something like this:
: The ingenuitysof the Yankee il typifed
Well in a hens nest that he has recently in
vented and patented. This nest increases
the laying capacity of the hens to an UNI
limited degree. In the bottom of it there is
a trap door, governed by a delicate spring.
The hen lays an egg, the weight of which
causes the trap door to, open, whereupon the
egg drops down into a subterranean com
partment, andsthe door closes very swiftly
and silently. again. The hen gets up, turns
to look at the egg, but sees none there. So
she decides that she must be mistaken in
thinking she had laid, and she sits down
again aud deposits another egg, which, like
its predecessor, disappears. The process
continues indefinitely

So Much Greek.

During these days Of post Office inves-
tigation a story is told Of a postmras-
ter down in Virginia. A young man
from New York went to one of the
little places in the old state to visit a
relative, and having occasion to write,
secured a postal card.
"You had better not write anything
private on that card" remarked his
sister. "The old cobbler who is post
master here reads every card"
But the young man was writing to a
chum. and they had been studying short
hand together, 81 he put his message in
not hooks, curves andidashes, and mailed
4. He had not got far from the Office
when the old cobbler rushed after him,
shouting:

MATERIAL FOR QUART BOX.

Quart boxes are largely used. These

generally used by strawberry growers.
They hold half a dozen boxes. There is
another device recently invented, con-
Eisting of a small wire arrangement in
which two quart boxes can be placed.
a strap or belt is attached which allows
TO be strapped about the waist, of the
operator, with the boxes in front. The
picker then has the use of both hands
and can 90 much more rapid work. It's
device both desirable and convenient.
In some places where these crops are
grown extensively and are harvested
or evaporating purposes a small tray
sued, the berries being knocked from
ne bushes onto this tray by a stuffed
cup. The tray is usually four Or five
eet long and three feet wide, made of
canvas. The boxes sre generally placed

SOUTH AMERICAN SNAKES.
Fabulous Tales About Bons and An
acoldns Arc Wholly With

An American traveller who has spent
many years in South America, upsets
many old notions about dangerous rep
tiles. When he first went to South Amer
lea he had the conventional pictures in
his mind of men being crushed and swal-
lowed by a%nacondas and boas.
Years ago." he said, II read an ac-
count written by a naturalist of these
monsters in their native state, coiling
and uncoiling themselves like lightning,
and coughing and Kissing with such a
roar as could be compared only to the
exhaust of a powerful steam engine.
What is the truth about these mys-
FERROUS reptiles? l have asked nearly
every native I met in the South Amer
lean countries if he had ever seen a boa
or an anaconda. Most of them had not.
To those who had l put the question:
VIVA do they look like?
"And the answer was always: Their
moven.~-t is very, very slow, and they
are not ferocious.'
81 met an anaconda on the Upper
Maranon, a great black and yellow
snake, all coiled up. I drew my revolver
and fred at the coil. Instead OF the
terrible commissions Of which I had read
the coil rolled over, remained station

as before. l fired again. The coil sank
slowly in the water and disappeared.
