MONEY IN COMMISSIONERS.

The practice of putting money
under the foundation stone of a new
building is the shadow of an older
tragic custom. The money stands
theoretically for the ransom of the
human being who by ancient super
stition should have been buried in its
place.
There was time when this partic-
ular kind of human sacrifice had
vogue extending to most parts of the
world. Even in England skeletons
have been found imbedded in the
bases of castle walls, and there is rec
ord of one German fortress at the
from its mother with hard cash and
walled in to the donjon tower, the un-
natural mother, according to the
story, looking on the while. Efhgies
of human beings are still used in some
parts of Europe as harmless substi-
tutes, and in remoter and more ruth
less places the old custom crops out
from time to time in all its grim real
ity. Within the last half century two
children, a boy and a girl were, it was
reported, walled into blockhouse
by some lalorers at Duga, Asiatic
Turkey.

THE WILD FLOWER PRESERVATION So
CIETY OF AMERICA.

When America was first settled the
products of the forest, field and stream
were found so rich that the supply
seemed inexhaustible, and it is only
within the last few years that we
have been awakened to the danger of
total determination along the lines
where formerly there was abundance.
First of all the game laws were passed,
then laws protecting birds used for
decorative purposes, and later the for
ests, enormous as they had seemed,
were found to need State and National
protection.
But not until May, 1902, was any
step taken to preserve our native wild
flowers, many of which, through
thoughtlessness or mistaken senti-
ment, are disappearing from our
woods and meadows.
The society for their preservation
has its headquarters at Washington,
and has much the same plan of work
as the Audubon Society, using 1.-The
Plant World as its official organ.
The purpose of the society is two
fold, first, to create broader, higher
plane of enlightened public sentiment
regarding the protection of plants in
general, and second, to take immediate
steps to save certain of the more
snowy or interesting forms now
threatened with determination.
The worst enemies are the nature
student who thinks it necessary to
pluck every flower he sees school
children who gather flowers in great
quantities regardless of their value,
and the would-be philanthropist who
robs our woods of their best treasures
to send to hospitals and other pub
lie institutions. The last is perhaps
the most wasteful as woods flowers,
especially the early ones, are SO per-
ishable that by the time they reach
the city their only value is the gar
bage pile.
1t is hoped the work Of the society
may be felt before it is too late to pre-
serve many of our plants already
grown too rare, and that those who
have an opportunity will caution the
more thoughtless. Belle VanSant, of
Ge0Ype School.

GRAN'MA's PIES.

When gran'ma bakes the pies, you know,
Pm ticl1led s l can be-
She's never made good thing yet
An not remembered me.
She bakes twelve big ones, more or less,
An then she says: "Oh, myl
1 do believe my boy must have
A little saucer pie"
An when she takes and frills the edge
Just like her cup cake tin,
An fills it full O. pumpkin soup
(For l don't like 'em thin),
An bakes it Just golden brown
Gee whiz, but it smells nice
When gran'ma sets it out to cool,
All cinnamon an spice.
But when she bakes the apple pie
Turnovers are the thing,
She says, to make little man
AS happy as king.
An oh, such tender, puffy crust;
With apples in between,
An so much sugar an allspice
I'm sure was never scent
One time she said: "When mother, dear.
Was just a tiny child
She begged for apple pie one day
Until her ma was wild.
There is no sugar an no fruit
Except the green grapes yon,
But you may make pat of dough
Your pie to put upon
An SO she rolled her risen dough
Her ma took from the bread
An went an put her green grapes in
1t must have been like lead
But still she imagined it treat
Because she named it pie.
She lived hundred years ago.
I'm glad it wasn't /!

VERY ANXIOUS.

'tBy the way, Senator" said an
anxious Capitol employe to Senator
Allison, when do you think Con-
gress will adjourn p"
IT can't say" the Iowan replied.
"But it will adjourn soon, won't
it9"
GAS to that, 1.-THE Senator replied,
IT am reminded of the story of the
man who went out riding and was
caught in a rainstorm. He didn't
know whether to go on or seek shell
ter, and he applied to farmer, who
was plodding along the road. My
good man, he said, do you think it
is likely to stop raining!'
WELL said the farmer, it al
ways has.

sights, the decollette gowns of the
women impressed her most. She
gazed at the wearers long and won

TITS wonderful story. but can it
ever be estabhshsd7" said Irving,
helpleasly.
Fenton was deeply interested; he
was even excited. Here was some
thing worthy Of his mettle.
II think can do something in this
case" he said, quietly, but with some
thing in his tone that indicated q sub
dued enthusiasm.
The CLEAN in his eye and the com
preston Of his lips were significant.
Fenton had score TO Fay of, and It
was not in human nature that he
should not be glad at having the OPP
portunity to get even" He was con-
WINGED that he was the victim of too
much interest in the Wright case,
and he felt his resolution nerved anew
in the desire to clear up the affair.
In this way he would have a royal
revenge.
II am convinced OF one thing
thoroughly" said Mr.. Everett as they
were about to break up, land it Is
this: Herbert Wright's story fur
nishes the ground work from which
we must work TO clear up the mys-
terry. and it il useless to follow any
other theory; or else there is nc
mystery, and he is his fathers muir
derer. SO l would advise you both t.
keep his story clearly in mind what
ever you do"
Irving now took his departure
Fenton remained few minutes
longer to discuss some Of the detail
of his work, and then he, TOO, left
taking direction different from tina
taken by Warde. The three men wer
now thoroughly alive to the import
ance Of working quietly and IRE
from observation.
