The Good yalue oe Nut..

Nuts are not only the cheapest source
of cnergyi they arc the best. They are
made up of fat and What is called pro
teip.' The little huslls ON tie nuts are
not nourishing, but they should be eat
el with the nuts because they help in
digestion.
But nuts are so hearty a food that
they should never be eaten except as
the chief dish at meal; they should
not be taken at the end of Il heavy
meal nor between meals. 1t is quite as
foolish to eat nuts after Il meal as it
would be to eat 4 beefsteak after a
three course dinner.
Nuts can be made into soups. can be
used in sandwiches. salads and in 9th
er combinations both attractive aud
wholesome. They should be eaten with
salt and eaten With all sorts of fruit. A
whole wheat padding with chopped
nuts in it makes Il meal by itself.
Nuts will keep you warm, give ener-
gy. and, if you do not work too hard,
they will increase your flesh. but do not
eat nuts to any amount unless you give
up meat, for they are a substitute, not
food accessory.

A Troublesome Ant.

In the state of Colombia there is a
large ant (Atta cephalotes) which
causes great deal of injury to planta
tons. 1t attacks and carries off indis-
criminately all kinds of foliage. and no
sort of vegetation seems to come amiss
to it. The quantity of foliage carried
off by these ants is immense. A natu
ralist recently investigated the uses to
which the ants put this mass of vege-
table matter. and he ascertained that
they employ it to make hotbeds upon
which their eggs are deposited to be
patched by the heat produced by the
fermentation of the leaves. The ants do
not eat these portions for food, and the
larvae are fed upon a carefully selected
diet. Once the brood Is Matched the
ants clear iway the hotbed, carrying
out of their nest all the decomposed
vegetable matter. This is thrown out
in heaps apart, and in the large ant
hills these heaps will contain bushels
and upward.

The origin of the phrase "F'rench
leave" is traced back to custom be-
gun in France and initiated in Eng
land, common enough in the eight
zenith century, of going away from a
social gathering without taking formal
leave of host and hostess.
This is abundantly clear from two
extracts written in 1875. The first is
from Chesterfeld's Principles of Po-
likeness" "As the taking what is call
ed French leave was introduced that
on one PERSONS leaving the company
the rest may not be disturbed, looking
at your watch does what that piece of
politeness was designed to prevent
So also Jekyll: "French etiquettes
are precise to a degree. l will allow
that taking French leave is easy and
natural; but, on the contrary, there is
more formality i'll entering one assem-
bly, here than in taking the round of
routs for whole winter in london
AS disclaimer to this derivation the
French, on their part, have the phrase
"se retirer a l'Anglaise"-''to take Eng
fish leave'-with the same significance

When lad Daniel Webster was one
day called up by the teacher for pun

very dirty. Knowing this, he wet the
palm Of his right hand, wiping it off on
the side of his pantaloons. Give me
your hand" said the teacher very stern
ly. Out went the right hand partially
cleansed. The teacher looked at it a
moment and said, Daniel, if you will
find another hand in this room as soiled
as that will let you off this time" In
stantly came from behind his back his
left hand. Here it is" was the ready
reply. Chat will do" said the teacher.

profits Of !. n,o.kaae Ru,ner

Hobart Pasha during his adventurous
career took part in the American civil
war under the name of Captain Rob-
erts as a blockade runner. He had an
exciting time, and many of his escapes
were truly marvellous, as described i'll
his book, "Never Caught" According
to his statement forty ships were cap
tured out of siXty-siX that left England
and New York to run the blockade
during the war. Some idea of the prof
its may be formed from the fact that
wolnen's stays bought in England for
IS pence sold in Wilmington, one of the
principal blockade running ports, for 10
shillings, and cotton bought at two
pence a pound in Wilmington sold for
half crown a pound. The number of
ships captured does not give an ade-
quate idea of the loss sustained, as

The First English slave Trader.

Sir John Hawkins was the first Eng
fish slave trader. He formed com
pany composed of the leading men of
London and ftted out three small ships,
which sailed in 1862 Later Queen
Elizabeth lent Hawkins Jesus, large
ship of her own of 700 tons, and took
shares in the second African Company
She not only equipped the ship, but put
100 soldiers on board to provide for
contingencies. On the second voyage
Hawkins bought 400 negroes and had
a narrow escape from losing them ow=
ing to the lack of water when he was
near the equator. But, as he piously
recorded in his log, "The Almighty God
would not suffer his elect to perish and
sent a breeze which carried them safe
to Dominica" This was the beginning
OF the slave trade, which lasted for
more than two centuries before it was
finally suppressed.

Tartans of Scotch Clans.

Many Scotch clans have several tar
tans, such as a common tartan, hunt
ing tartan and a full dress tartan. Ear
ly in the day highlander of position
dons kilt of plain tartan, and in the
evening for dinner he puts on his full
dress tartan, with sporran and richly
jeweled dirk. For example, the Mac.
pherson dress tartan is black and
white with narrow red line, and the
hunting Macpherson is small blue
and black and red check. The Stuarts
have three tartans, and the design of
their hunting tartan in dark blue and
green is particularly fine. Each clan
has its own badge. The Duff men wear
holly, the Gordons an ivy leaf, the
Stuarts an oak leaf, and so on.

Genius is partly inspiratian, but mostly persp'-
ration, is worth calling attention to- Genius
is indeed God-given but nobody knows what
may beaccompshed by hard work Oftentimes
it takes work to bring out genius. The man
who wants anything must put his hand hard on
the pillow. Be assured that even if he does not
get what he wants. he will get something worth
having. No work in this world is ever unreward-
ed Hard work accompshes wonders, whether
the end be good or ILL., People whose ends are bad
are usually not afraid to sweat in attaining them.
The good must also be up and doing. Be like
