We are not disposed to say anything
about the physiology of laughter, but
we are prepared to affirm that as a
tonic there is nothing within the pos
sibilities of human experience that can
match a good. hearty laugh. There ~
something democratic about a laugh
that makes it impossible to distinguish
whether it is a prince or a plebeian
who is moved to merriment. Hardly
greater tragedy could be perpetrated
than to wrest the power of song from
the birds, but that would be a small
calamity compared with the filching Of
laughter from life. If the conditions Of
this world could be such as to afford to
every human being the frequent en-
joyment of pure, hearty peal Of
laughter there would be no need that
other favors be conferred. This alone
would be ample testimony that happi-
ness was paramount in the lives of
men.-Baltimore Herald.

Among the lost customs of merry

ance. The manner of their going was
as follows: They borrowed a great

built up the plate round AN obelisk,
browning the whole with a tea urn.
They arranged the most snowy flowers

ENGLISH TrufHe nnra

Trutfie dogs are very jealous work
ers. If one We're to make himself too
otticiouS his companion would fall on
and worry him. All the truffles do not
grow underground, and in such a case
the first few are gathered by the dogs
from the surface. Occasionally the
man Is able to pick one or two himself.
They are not quite ready for taking,
however. No animal seems to be at
tracted by trutfles only half grown and
immature. The scent comes only when
they are ripe. A copse may be hunted
one day till apparently every truffle has
been collected, and yet if visited after
a short interval will probably yield as
many as before. Until they are mature
the dogs cannot find them.
Every time a truf1le is found the
dogs stop and look at the pocket where
the bread is in a begging attitude and
do not begin to hunt again till after
the REPAY" Food is doled out in the
tiniest morsels, and yet before the day
Is over, though they still mechanically
ask for the reward, they cease to eat
it. They are the most tireless creatures
imaginable. The assiduity of one in
particular is extraordinary. l have
seen her work from dawn until dark,
collecting in that time nearly eight
pounds of truffles, and yet with as
much briskness and apparent enjoy
ment for the last as for the first. "She
has the brains of whole litter in her."
says the owner gravely. Her mother
had only one puppy at her birth, and
he sincerely believes that the talents
which might have been divided be-
tween five or six were concentrated in
one.-Longman's Magazine.

SHARKS Delicate In Captivity.

Sharks are rather delicate in captiv.
ity, and it is difficulty to keep them
in aquariums. Whatever care may be
bestowed upon them they do not seem
to be able to stand confinement, how
ever large the tank or pool may be.
In captivity sharks swim round and
round the tank, nine times out of ten
taking one course and never reversing.
A shark has been known to keep its
course for three or four months with
out change and, except for food, never
halting, so far as it was observed. 1t
would keep going all day long and
would be found going in the morning
just the same. If food was placed in
its way. it would stop for several min
utes and eat, remaining headed the
same way. Presently it would start
on again in the same direction on its
rounds, moving slowly unless dis

The Wind Sail.

1t frequently happens that after dis
charging a cargo of particularly
malodorous nature it is necessary to
let the air reach certain parts of the
hold Of a vessel not served by the fixed
regulation ventilators. To effect this
purpose portable canvas ventilator,
called wind SAIL" is employed. 1t is
cylindrical in shape and is kept in po-
sitiOn by means of stays. When it is
erected the air blows down it, and the
hold is soon pure once more.

ONION LORE.
Rules to BE Followed In Transplant
ing and Fall Sowing.


ing and Fall Sowing.
The objection to transplanting onions
that it costs too much-iS not well
founded. Editor Collingwood, who has
given this method thorough trial,
thinks 1.-THE work of transplanting is
less than thinning or wedding with the
fingers. The real objection to trans
planting is the difficulty in doing it all
at once. 1t will not do to let it dawdle
along. When you are ready to trans
plant put all hands at it, and see that
they work" The fact is that when we
get such splendid results, whether In
growing onions or anything else, it
pays US to put our energies into it and
learn how to overcome some of these
obstacles. If there were no difficulties
to overcome everybody would go into
this business, and the markets would
be overstocked with big bulbs, with no
chances of sale.
Fine Portugal Onions.
l have just brought in from the gar
den some very fine Portugal onions,
the bulbs being almost perfect and the
tops still green. A month or more ago
they might have been used for green,
Or punching, onions. Now they might
be pulled, cured and used for dry
bulbs. And most beautiful ones they
would make! The seed was sown Sept.
10 Of last year in somewhat protect
ed spot, but in soil by no means rich.
The plants stood rather thickly in the
row, wintered without the loss of a
plant and were transplanted in Sec
tons rather than singly into another
spot in the garden, where they made
the crop. This gave me hint that
may lead to some valuable innovations
In onion growing practices.-T. Grei-
