 You are right" said a listener, "and your statement reminds me of young lady who had two suitors. Both men had about the same advantages and prospects. but gossip declared that the girl would decide in favor of the man who was lawyer. for he knew better how to present and win his case. Cos sipe erred; the lawyer was rejected Later 1t was learned from friend in whom the betrothed had conflded her reason for her choice.

ASPARAGUS HAS A LINEAGE
Romans Held Vegetable in High Es- teem Many Years Before
 Christ.


 Of all food plants there is none which has been so long known or been pos sessed of SO distinguished a lineage as the asparagus. Its records reach back almost to the beginning of authentic hls- tory, and it is mentioned by the comic poet Cratinus, who died about 425 B. c. The Romans held the vegetable in high esteem. The elder Cato wrote work which is still extant, "De re Rustica," and 1t treats at length of the virtues and proper cultivation of asparagus. Pliny, in his natural history, written about 50 A. D., has much to say about it. He feelingly observes: "Of all the products of your garden your chief care should be asparagus" and he devotes several chapters to its many good qualities and the best methods of raising it He as- serts that the soil about Ravenna was so favorable to its production that three heads grown in that district had been known to weigh Roman pound. This pound seems to have been about equal to II ounces in our day, so it would ap- parently have taken four of the stalks to have reached a pound of our weight. The asparagus being essentially southern plant, 1t is possible that the stock growing in Italy was of . more vigorous growth than that of our north ern cline. It is found all around the shores of the Mediterranean and branches of into four or five distinct species besides the one ordinarily used for edible purposes.

ZIG BEE RANCH IN FRISCO
Public School Principal of Coast City Harvests a Third of a Ton
 of Honey . Season.

There is a bee ranch with more thar ], 100000 bees in the heart of one of the densest residence districts of San Fran cisco. It is owned by Philip Prior. prin- |cipal of . public school. and Is in the title back yard of his home. For ten ears he has kept his bees there, has aryested about third of a ton of
 ney each season and has been at no
 pense for food for his interesting and edustrious pets. Although it is a dis tance of two and one-half miles from the Prior bee ranch to Golden Gate park, the bees make the trip there, collect loads of honey and get back to the hive in two minutes, making . bullst-like ! flight at the surprising rate of 150 miles Ian hour MT. Prior has demonstrated
 his by having an observer watch cer-
 ain bee-favored places in the park and
 Kactly timing the arrivel there of bees

CURIOUS WORMS OF NoRW.
They Gather in Great Numbers For ing a Serpent-Like Mass
 When Migrating.

The Sciaras, of the genus Tiplux, tin wormlike creature which is found il the forests of Norway and Hungary dur ing the month of July or early in August5 gather in huge numbers preparatory tol migrating in search of food or for q change of conditions. When setting out on this journey, says Nature, they stick themselves together by means of some glutinous matter and form huge ser. pentlike mass, often reaching a length of between 40 and 50 feet and several inches in thickness. As the scaria is only on an average of about three-thir- ty-seconds of an inch in length, with no appreciable breadth whatever, the num- Der required to form continuous line of the size above mentioned is incal- culable.
 Their pace is, of course, very slow. and upon meeting an obstacle, such as . stick or stone, they either writhe over or around it, sometimes breaking into two bodies for the purpose. A celebrated French naturalist says that If the rear portion of this snakelike procession be brought into contact with the front part the insects will keep moving round in that circle for hours, never seeming to realize that they are getting no further on their journey. If the portions be broken in two the procession will unite in a short time When the peasant meets one of these processions he will lay some obstacle in front of it. If it passes over 1t 1t is good omen.

Pain in the Head

Is a danger signal, warning you that the brain nerves are exhausted-irritated, and are undergoing an unnatural strain.
 Frequent and prolonged at tacks of pain weaken the gen. erative power of the nerve cells of the brain, and lead to loss of memory, melancholy, spasms, epilepsy, and frequent ly insanity.
 When the brain nerves are weakened they are unable to supply sufficient nerve force to the nerves that control the lungs, heart, stomach and other organs, and these organs are thus robbed of energy, and unable to meet the demands upon them,and they get sick.
 Stop the head pains with Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills, and the influence upon your general health will be greater than you can realize.

The Leopard of the Shows,

When we look at the leopards in a menagerie our minds instinctively turn
 to pictures of the hot tropics and the tor rid lands of the equator. But there are leopards that love the snow, and never willingly descend below the levels where snowstorms occur in summer as well as in winter.

FANcIEs ABOUT BEES.

$500 FOR LETTERS
 ABOUT THE SOUTHWEST.

The Western Trail magazine offers six prizes aggregating in value $500 in railroad transporta- tion for letters from residents of Arkansas, East Colorado, Mis- souri, Kansas, Indian Territory, Oklahoma, Texas and New Mex ico.
 It wants letters that will in- duce energetic and ambitious men and women to settle in the great and growing Southwest and there engage in farming, cattle raising, dairying, fruit growing and similar pursuits.
 To accomplish the purpose which it has in view, the Vest ern Trail offers the following prizes in railroad transportation for the six letters which, in the opinion of a competent judge, shall be deemed best suited to it's requirements:
 First prize, $1O0 in railroad transportation.
 Second prize, $75 in railroad transportation.
 Third prize, $50 in railroad transportation.
 Fourth prize, 1925 in railroad transportation.
 Fifth prize, $25 in railroad transportation.
 Sixth prize, $25 in railroad transportation.
 THE CONDITIONS ARE EASY.
 Letters should deal with tn writer's experiences since he set tied in the Southwest. They should tell how much money he had when he rrived, what he did when he first came, what measure of success has since crowned his efforts and what he thinks of that portion of country in which he is located.
 Letters should not be less than 300 nor more than 1,500 words in length, and will be used for the purpose of advertising the South west. Letters are desired not only from farmers and farmers wives, but also from merchants, school teachers, clergymen; from everyone who has story to tell and who knows how to tell it. Poetical contributions are not wanted.
 All cannot win prizes, but by their contributions they can as- sist the Western Trail in it's ef- forts to colonize and upbuild the Southwest.
 Contest closes June 30, 1905. Prizes will be awarded as soon thereafter as results can be de- termined. Address the Western Trail, 736-744 Van Buren street, Chicago, III.
