The mystery element enters to ?
greater or less degree into fiction of
every kind. Indeed, it is the base of
all literary interest. Primarily we
read story ito see how it comes out"
and, other things being equal, the
story III which the element of sus-
pense by deft construction and subtle
shaping is most successfully maintain
ed will be the most universally satisfy
ing and popular. The mystery tale OF
today is a story in which the element
of suspense is deliberately enlarged
and emphasized until it dominates ev-
cry other consideration in the story.
Characterization, atmosphere, emotion
al values-all become subordinated to
the great business of plot development.
The marshaling of incident, the sue
ceSsion of climaxes in crescendo order,
the cumulative sweep of the narrative
while the secret of the outcome is care
fully withheld, is the affair here Like
a periodic sentence of titanic size, the
tale is unrelled until with the conclud-
inc paragraphs the meaning Of all that
has gone before is Aade clear.-Lee f.
Hartman in Harper's Weekly.

Koran and Bible.

Concerning the alleged resemblance
between Christianity and Mohammed-
anism Rev. Napier Malcolm, in Five
Years In a Persian Town." says:
There are really not many resem-
blances to note. An officer of Indian
troops replied to a Mussulman's sug
gestion that there were resemblances
between the two religions, There is
hardly a single practical point where
Mussulmans and Christians are not en-
tirely at ISSUE whereupon the Mus
sulman said: 'Sahib, you have read
your Bible and have also read the
Koran. I always make that remark to
Christians. l made it to padre the
other day, and they almost always say:
Every true. Mohammedanism has a
great deal in common with Chris
tiantty." Well, sahib, when they say
that, know that they have not read
the Koran and that they have not read
their BibleS'"

Facts About Bananas.

Under very favorable circumstances
banana plant may give a stem of
fruit in nine months, but it generally
takes from fifteen to eighteen months
for the average plantations to lie in full
bearing. The life of a plantation
varies according to the fertility of it's
soil and typographical situation. Some
soils may need rest in six or seven
years, while others may last practically
forever, as in cases where periodically
enriched by alluvial deposits. Sandy
loan, through which water or rain will
freely percolate, is the best soil for
bananas. The stalk needs a large
amount of rainfall for it's successful
development, but water must not be
allowed to remain on the surface or
Immediately under the surface of the
soil surrounding it, lest the water be
heated by the tropical sun and be-
come stagnant, in which case it will
kill the plant.-Chicago Journal.

TOOthhrnAheS.

I'm the straight toothbrush one thigh
bone of a beef twelve inches long and
four in diameter will cut four perfect
blanks. The same bone will cut only
two of these fancy curved pieces.
That's one thing that makes the diff
ference in cost between plain and fan
cy,' said manufacturer. when the
bone is cut to length and shaped, bris-
ties are hand drawn by wire or thread
through the brush part, each group of
bristles having it's own leader. Then
they are securely fastened, and the
work is finished. When the bristles
first go in they are fully three inches
long. After being firmly secured they
are cut down to the size required.
What bristle is best? Well, in some re-
spects that's matter of taste. It is
all hog bristle, but whether soft or
hard depends on the user"
