Plant with Deadly Odor.

There are criminals among plants as
well as among animals and human be-
ings. Those that have the most SIMS.
ter reputation are known as death
plants, which are found only In the
volcanic districts of Java and Sum-
atra. The plants appearance quite be-
lies its name, for 1t is really very
attractive, being low growth shrub
with long thorny stems covered with
beautiful broad leaves. The upper
surface Of these leaves Is a vivid en-
erald, while the lower surface Is O. bril-.
liant scarlet. The flowers are great
white bell-shAped blossoms, which ex-
hale a sweet and deadly perfume
The death plant grows in the most
fertile spots, but all about it the
ground becomes barren of vegetation
and neither bird nor beast may come
within wide radius Of it. They know
better, but rash man, with mo warning
instinct to guide him, will occasionally
linger too long in its vicinity, en-
chanted by it's delicious and heavy
fragrance, until he experiences the
distressing effects of his imprudence-
a binding headache, which, If he still
remains, will be fCl!owed by temporary
deafness, convulsions Of muscles OF
the face and insensibility.

SYNONYM for Tail

A pedigree undoubtedly adds to the
value of an animal, but all pedigrees
are not so much in evidence as the
one herein described. When little Ma
Jory heard that the Maddens had an
Angora cat with splendid pedigree "
the child was naturally DESTROYS of be.
holding a quadruped with such an IN.
usual attachment; she had known and
loved many kittens, but never one
blessed with pedigree. At last her
curiosity was satisfied, she saw the
favored animal in the flesh, and re-
turned home in a great state of ex-
element.
"Oh, Mother!" she cried. "You
should see the Madden's cat! 1t has
pure white pedigree that measures
six inches around and looks exactly
like the ostrich plume on your SUNDAY

CHAPTER w.

Sir Reginald Glendenning was out of
humor one sunny morning In May. The
daily mail had been handed him, as usu-
al, just as he had commenced his break
fast, and one letter that he had then
received had discompoaed and made him
surly and violent.
"What luck Is this?" he muttered
after my not going to the funeral Of
my sister, and thus, by my absence,
showing that had not overlooked her
plebeian marriage, to think that these
people have forwarded such q letter as
this to me II absurd ! do not care IL It
was written by her before her death.
They might have known l did not wish
1t. Take charge of her husbands niece,
6oESoothl She may go to the almshouse
for all mel will not have a thing to
do with her.
30 saying, Sir Reginald turned to his
library, tossed the offensive letter into a
drawer Of his bookcase, locked 1t, and
putting the key In his pocket, rang the
bell furiously for a waiter, ordering him
- have the groom bring to the door a
young horse named Tempest at once, as
he intended to ride. Springing upon the
back OF the handsome creature, Sir Regi-
maid Glendenning dashed away, just as
Ms nephew, Robert, a young man about
twenty years of age appeared upon the
deserted piazza.
He was In personal appearance very
tall, with a magnificent figure, dark COM
plexion, handsome features and large,
speaking black eyes, while his whole air
portrayed the pride that he had SO rich
~ inherited from his own immediate fam
uy.

beautiful brunette, followed him. "See

Leaving Sir Reginald to his wild ride
on that lovely May morning, we will go
back a day or two In our story, and again
seek DR.. Elfenstein. In many Of his
visits, which were all professional, he
had, by dropping some leading word,
striven to discover the public mind in
regard to the murder committed In their
midst twenty-five years before.
To his surprise, he met everywhere q
decided reluctance to talk upon the sub

Is a clay containing small per cent

claims he can cure with this clay any

Leg-Ache in Children.-These pains,
so common in children, are probably OF
neuralgia nature and are associated
with a disproportion between the
amount of waste matter formed and
that exuded. A few heavy meals, or
even one such eaten during dry, cold
weather when the child Is active and
drinks freely, will have no bad effect.
The same quantity of food, however,
taken during damp weather, when
elimination is less active, may give
rise to these growing pains. The cause
then in a word Is uneltminated waste
and the treatment giving best condi-
tons for prevention and relief Is care
Of the diet, free exercise and water
drinking and more than all else care
Of the excretions by baths, sweat
baths, enemas and so on.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
I have read your editorial, Mature Study

Because of my interest in such matters am
