HOW FROGS CAME TO BE.

Did you ever hear how frogs originated It is a queer story. but then it happened a long time ago, when the world was young ana all sorts of queer things were hap pening' We can, of course. believe as much or as little of such stories as we please, but at least they entertain us.
 Now as to the frogs they came into being because a weary. thirsty woman was pre- vented from getting a drink of water. Here is the way the story is told:
 Latona was beautiful goddess. who lived with the other goddesses and gods on Mount Olympus. where Jupiter and Juno reigned as you know. She was distinguished for many things. but chiefly for being the mother of Apollo and Diana It seems that she Incurred the i'll will of Juno in some way and was banished from Olympus with no place to put her foot and no shelter for her weary head, for Juno had made Terra the Earth. promise that she should not find rest anywhere.
 Neptune, the god of the sea. however took pity on the banished goddess and in

MIR. NAPIER PREACHED
TWO ELOQUENT SERMONS B
 PASTOR AT AUBURN.
He Has Been Called tc Pastorate oi Southside Baptist Church. His Call Under Con-
 EiGeration.

Rev. A. Y. Napier. pastor of the Bap tist Church of Auburn, preached two eloquent sermons to two large conyre. 4ations at the South Side Baptist Church yesterday.
 Mir. Napier has been invited to become pastor of the pretty little church or Be]linger Heights. He now has Sths unanimous call extended him by this church under consideration. but will moi probably announce his final decision foi several days. The call was unanimously extended him a week ago upon the re- port of committee from the church named to recommend a successor to the Rev. Dallas P. Lee, the late pastor oi the church.
 MT. Napier is a member of prominent Georgia family. He is a graduate oi Mercer University Macon, and the South ern Theological Seminary of Louisville. Ky. He has a handsome and attractive personality and is an eloquent and force- full speaker.
 His text for the sermon at the morn ing service was 'If ye love me keep my commandments" He made a very favor shle impression upon the congregation and the members earnestly hope that he will accept the call which has been ten dered him

acterized Congress as "a team of wild horses" Mir Cleveland never had much love for Congress, and felt better when Congress was out of town. Mr. Mckinley got along better with Con- gress better than any President since Polk. That was because he knew Con- gress than any President since Speaker Cannon, or Senator Allison were President, Congress might sit continuously and without friction in its dealing with the executive. Gen. Grant did not get along well with many of the Republican Senators-Sumner Schurz. Trumbull and Tipton. Hayes was as unpopular in Congressional cir cles as Cleveland became, after the spells were distributed. Thomas B. Reed spoke of the Harrison regime as the ice wagon" and a big majority of the Republicans of both houses rap turously applauded the sarcasm. Pres ident Roosevelt manages Congress ad- mirably, and he does 1t something af- ter the fashion practiced by Petruchio in the Tanning of the Shrew." In a recent newspaper editorial Col. w. C. P. Breckinridge laments the failure of MT; Cleveland to appoint Col Will liam R. Morrison Secretary of the In- terior. That department has long needed a reformer, and Col. Morrison was NhC NCAS man lOE Llt OCCdSlODs put it was as a politician that Col. Breck- inbridge thinks Go. Morrison would have proved of most advantage to the administration. Morrison knew men and he knew Congress, and if any could have preserved the rapproach- ment between the President and the Democratic majority, he was the man. Mir. Carlisle was too much of think er-he was never a politician in the sense of a manager
 MT. Henry Cabot Lodge supposed to be the Congressional manager of Theo- dore Roosevelt, If, indeed we can imagine that such a President as Mir. Roosevelt has become could put up with manager. There Is much in common between the President and the Senator. Both are able. both are cultured, both are strenuous. both are dogmatic Each has written a great deal of history, some of it very aston ishing. There was a time when they were reformers and strove for the im- possible. Twenty years ago they were on the verge of mugwumpery. The Hon Joseph Henry Walker himself did not have narrower escape from that ca lamity than the present Republican | President of the United States and his spokesman In the United States Senate.
 
 l chusetts if George Fred Williams had had twin? And Joseph Henry Walk CT thrown in! There Is scripture for | it that the good God will not Impose on His creatures more than they can bear Massachusetts has reason to be | thankful. MT Lodge ought to be Chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. or Secretary of State. He is a jingo. and though he oh t1 some of the State papers of John Quincy Adams, nor make a report to rival one of Charles Summers great speeches, he is the man for the present occasion. and if given an opportunity Henry Cabot Lodge will make some history more startling than any he ever wrote.

vited her to the Isle of Delos. which then fIoated under the water, but rose to the surface at his command. There she found peace and comfort. and there she brought up her two famous children. Apollo to be- come god of the sun and Diana the goddess of the moon.
 But perhaps you are wondering what all this has to do with the frogs. It is said that one day, while Latona was wandering desolate and weary with her children while they were yet babies she came to pool of clear sparkling water Half dying with thirst, goddess as she was. she ran toward the pool to drink some of the cool water. but a crowd of ugly yokels surrounded 1t and kept her away.
 She had up to this time borne her priva- tions and sufferinss with patience and resignation, but at this act of wanton cru city her patience gave way and turning fu- riously on the yokels she turned them all into croaking frogs. which they have re- mained to this day.

TREES PLANTED AT NIGHT.

More Likely to Live Than If Trans.
planted in the Daytime.
Philadelphia Record: 1t was long
since observed that budding trees, when
transplanted in the evening and imme-
diately and %copiously watered. were
much more likely to thrive tina those
that had been moved in the day. But
this knowledge did not lead to any we'll
define theory on the subject until the
experiments Of M. Rene R%ounault. a
French expert, proved beyond a doubt
i that distinctly beneficial results could
be gained by transplanting wholly at
! night.
1 Being called upon to transplant a
large tract toward the end Of May, 1903,
NJ. Rounault determined to work at
night. and In order to be sure tina he
, made no mistake he transplanted
Holland linden, which had been in his
own nursery for five years. at 10 o'clock
at night. He carefully watered the
tree. and the branches which bore buds
were freely moistened. The Linden did
not appear to suffer from this trans
planting, n continued to grow nor
mally, without showing any signs of
weakness. Encouraged by this success,
NJ. Rounault performed the work Of
transportation entirely in the night
time. The results were excellent, only
two trees dying. though the choice Of
the species was extremely wide con-
aiming many "AiSii W Nv Iedully SUI.
init to the process of transportation.
With reference to the precautions to
be &served. 1t should be stated that
trees should not be transplanted while
their buds are too tender. and that the
work should be done between 10 o'clock
p. m. n 2 o'clock a. m 1t is desirable
that the roots should be covered with
earth which has for several days been
exposed to the effects of air and light,
This should be settled by copious wa
tering. which forces the earth between
the roots. and not by pressure with the
feet. For the first fifteen days after
transplanting the boughs and leaves of
the trees should be ahundantlz
sprinkled.
