A TOO common Attitude.

A small girl who had just begun to
attend school brought home a pumpkin
seed and told her mother that the
teacher said that although the seed
was white, the pumpkin would be vel
low.
"And what win the color Of the vines

The little girl replied that the teacher
had not taught her that

FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

Do not let rubbish of any kind lie un-
derneath the trees. 1t harbors vermin.
A yard or lawn always looks barren
without some ornamental trees and
shrubs.
AS an apple or pear orchard will last
a lifetime, particular care must be TAX
en- in the selection Of varieties.
II currants and gooseberries are prun-
ed in tree form, they viii bear larger
and finer fruit Prune every year.
To have a good garden the land must
be kept rich by liberal use Of manure.
During the winter is the best time to
apply it.
Nearly all house plants will be bene-
fited by having the blossoms that ap-
pear Immediately after planting in pots
prunea c@. Let the plant get well es-
tablished before Towering.
The rose is 4 hearty feeder and will
therefore bear annual manuring, but
only well rotted and thoroughly fined
manure should be used, taking care tc
work it well into the soil early in the
winter

Whether it be rough or smooth at

anation Of this singular fact? 1t is
simple as the fact is strange. Ba-
b don't get seasich because they are
stoned to tile rocking of the era
iig That movement is much like the
fo e Of ship. A baby aboard ship,

peopIe VINO Cannot Make Fires.

The Papuans of the Malay coast Of
New Guinea are still In the most prim-
itive state. They are wholly unac-
qualnted with metals and make their
weapons of stone, bones and wood
They do not know how to start fire,
though fire is used among them. When
a Russian asked them how they made
a fire, they regarded it as very anus
ing and answered that when persons
fire went out he got some Of a neigh
Dor, and If all the fires in the village
should so @it they would get it from
the next village. Their fathers and
grandfathers had told them that they
remembered a time or had heard from
their ancestors that there was a time
when fire was not known and every
thing was eaten raw.

Cases Of wanting to run when bullets

But a young soldier in Brooklyn CON
fesses to a more queer experience. His
regiment was In camp and had been
ordered out for dress parade, as usual.
When lined up for Inspection, every
man as stiff as ramrpd and not a

Lieutenant, began to, ask himself:
