The wild Strawberry.

The wild strawberry is very widely
diffused over the surface CT the earth,
being found in the chill regions OF tn
north as well as in the sunny ciimes
of the south. 1t Is not a tropical plant,
however, and except on mountain sides
is not found south of latitude SO de-
grees north. On the European CONT.
nent it grows extensively from Lap.
land and the Shetland isles to Italy and
Greece. 1t Is also found throughout
western Asia, but is unknown in China
Ind Japan. 1t has grown abundantly
on the bleak hills of Iceland for cen.
turtles. 1t Is found in America from
Labrador and British Columbia to the
pine woods of the southern states and
on the high lands of Mexico and the
Andes. The hardy plant, with its tiny
scarlet berry. may be said to girdle the
earth on the line Of the polar circle and
several hundred miles southwark. ex-
cept that it is not found in the basin Of
the river Amur. IN Siberia.

the other side had q small projection
like a chocolate drop in shape and

Altar OF Roses.

In trade the rose is very valuable, as
the affairs of India aud Persia sell at
a very high price, and there are large
districts of rose gardens in which men
and women are employed, the harvest
months being March and April. In
Turkey also rose farming is largely
carried on, and a very enc altar is got

thunderstorm. Mt sea.

An electric storm at sea is one OF the
alarming experiences to which a mari
ner is exposed, but as a matter of rec
ord it is one that is least fruitful in dis
astrous results. AS a rule few precau-
tons are taken to guard against q
stroke of lightning, especially in the
merchant service. Ships of war are
usually fitted with lightning conduct
ors, a %piecaution made necessary by
the explosives stored away in their
magazines. But these safeguards are
seldom seer on a merchant vessel. and.
Judging by the extreme rarity of the
cases where they have been struck,
Jacks claim that he is safer on the
ocean than on shore during an electric
al disturbance must be admitted.
1t is a well established theory that
one caught in a thunderstorm should
not take shelter under a tall tree, espe-
cially If 1t stands in a clearing. why
