The wild Goose Bean.

To the lGmbermen Of Maine are due
the discovery and production Of the
now .famouse goose bean The real
name Of the man who planted the first
crop Of this vegetable Is not known,
but there are two rivals for the honor,
and each has a most plausible version
of his discovery OF the bean. John
Goddard, afterward colonel in the civil
war, told this story of how the bean
was first found and grown by him:
He had charge of a gang of lumber
men during the spring of 1916. The
soft, slumpy snow made the roads i'm
passable for tote team" and the men
had been without fresh meat for more
than a week. Colonel Goddard gave
the cook orders to take his gun and go
out to see If he could get shot at the
wild geese which were flying north in
great flocks. The cook was lucky
enough to bring back several birds for
supper. When he was dressing them
he noticed from the lack of food in
their crops that they had been on short
rations during their journey north
ward. In the crop Of one young gan
der were three beans, which Goddard
saved and planted in his garden that
summer. From these three beans he
harvested about two quarts of beans,
and from that first crop came the sup
ply which has since gladdened the
hearts of lumbermen throughout the
country.

Llrhtinn The Yule Log.

A custom at one time prevalent In
England and still observed in some Of
the northern districts Of the old couu-
try is that Of placing an immense log
of wood, sometimes the root of a great
tree, in the wide chimney place This
log is often called the Yule log, and 1t
was on Christmas eve that 1t was put
on the wide hearth. Around 1t would
gather the entire family, and their en-
trance was the occasion of great deal
of ceremony. There was music and re
joicing, while the one authorized to
light 1t was obliged to have clean
hands. 1t was always lighted with Il
brand left over from the log of the pre-
vious year, which had been carefully
preserved for that purpose A poet
sings Of 1t In this way;
with the last yeere's brand
Light the new block, and
For good success in his spending
On your psaltries play,
That sweet luck may
Come while the log is attending.
The Yule log was supposed to be
protection against evil spirits, and 1t
was considered bad omen If the fire
went out before the evening was over.
The family and guests used to seat
themselves In 'front.' OF the brightly
burning FIRE, and many a story and
merry jest went round the happy
group.

The appointment of Mr.. Palda as
Judge in the new Eighth district. of

been made in time to permit Of the
first term OF court being held in April
in Ward county. under the new law.
In making the appointment the COVER
o has been influenced by a desire to
appoint the one most likely to be
elected two years hence. Investiga-
ton convinces him that Palda is that
man. The bar of the district had
pretty generally endorsed Mr.. Brennan
for the position. and as he seems to
be the most mature and dignified of
all the candidates it is likely his can
didacy would have been successful had
he been longer in the district.
Another peculiar situation in connec
ton with this matter is the fact that
when the legislature was passing the
bill creating the new district the most
influential leaders fully believed that
the first judge from that district would
be Hon. V. B. Noble. and the bill would
not have passed but for this impress
sion. However. when the act became
a law Mr.. Noble was not a candidate,
but declared himself for Mr.. Goss of

Savages always walk with their toes
turned in for two reasons. In the frs.
place the foot naturally falls in that
position when it has never been con-
fined by boots or the ankles distorted
by high heels. In the long stride of the
savage the leg swings freely like n
pendulum round the center N gravity.
which is somewhere between ii and
the other leg. In the swing the abduc-
tor muscles of the inside of the thigh
bring the sole of the foot under the
cenrer of gravity, and in doing so
slightly rotate the foot toward the in
ner line, turning the toe in. Conven-
fence is also on the side Of the natural
position Of the foot in the case of the
savage. for he has to do much walking
through long grass and underground in
forests.
A moments reflection will show how
very much his progress would be i'm
peded if he turned his toes ont to catch
these obstacles instead OF brushing
them aside and outward as he now
does. Lastly, the savage uses his foot
much more as a help to his hands than
we do. and it is obvious that in doing
this he must turn his tOes in.

ITO boil water would seem to be a

land yet the late Charles Delmonico
used to say that very few people know

In putting good fresh water into 81 ket-
tie already quite warm, setting the wa
ter to boiling quickly and then taking
1t right off for use in tea. coffee or 9th
er drinks before it is spoiled. To lot it
steam and simmer and evaporate until
h good water is in the atmosphere
and only the lime and iron and dregs
left in the kettle is what makes Il great
many people sick. and it is worse than
no water at ALL For water boiled like
this and favored with a few drops Of
lemon juice Mr.. Delmonico used to
charge as much as for his best liquors,
and he often recommended it to his
customers and friends who complained
