where he found Joy as well as occupa-
ton, and within a few years invented
the Burbank potato, which you can
now buy In any market in the United
States. His health did not improve
much, and the cold winters were too
severe for him. So with the money he
got for his potato in 1875 he came to
Santa Rosa, in the heart Of the Sono-
ma Valley, one Of the most beautiful
and fertile sections Of California Here
he has remained ever since. He bought
a little piece of ground and started a
nursery, which turned out to be very
profitable. He made money rapidly.
His sympathy with the botanical king
dom was such that he could do almost
anything with seeds or cuttings, and
he became a plant breeder. His first
important production was the Burbank
plum, which is now grown all over the
world. 1t is a combination Of the best
Japanese and the best American plums;
it is more hardy, produces better and
has finer flavor than any other varie-
ty. Cecil Rhodes bought 10000 trees
from Mr.. Burbank and transplanted
them to South Africa.
Then Burbank revolutionized the
prune business He found the Cali
fornia people growing the common
French prune, which, when dried, was
chiefly pit and skin. tough and often
tasteless BY grating and crossing
serymen he produced the largest and
finest prunes ever known to the world
and $4,000 900 pounds of them are now
shipped annually from Santa Clara val
ley and other parts Of California. He
has accomplished many other results
of great commercial value in berries
flowers, vegetables, and fruits, and, as
Mr.. Aiken said Of him recently In ar
article in the Sunset Magazine:
wherever the round world over
men know flowers and fruits; know
of their origin, their development and
their creation, there Is Luther Bur-
bank recognized as man Of wondrous
power. He has done things. Like thai

the Spanish War, carried this nations

Maaic Tree In Burmah.

A banyan tree, II Is said, has been
discovered in the village of Chaung
galay-Opo, in the Pantanaw township,
Maubin district, very unlike any other
banyan. First Of all, 1t grew up in
one night and not from the ground but
from the trunk Of another tree, Icing
bin terminalia blalata.
1t Is as big as a mans arm and Is
rapidly growing round and round the
other just like creeper. We are told
that it is Of gold, or at least has all
the appearance of pure gold, so much
so that all the persons who came to
see it, wishing to make more Of the
fact, cut little bits Of 1t with small
knives or scratched 1t with their fin
ger nails, and always with the same
result-that Is, that the interior Of the
tree has the same golden hue as the
bark, but the little bits cut Off soon
become white.
Near its upper end, or summit,
there is a cavity, and from 1t inces-
sanity flows a continuous stream of
pure water. 1t has indeed been dis
covered that 1t can cure all the dis
eases humanity Is heir to, Of which the
Burmese reckon ninety-six principal
ones, branching off into many hun
dreds.
The news of wonderful cures was
soon all over the district, and be-
levers from every town and village
came to see and worship the miracu-
lous banyan. The water Is carefully
put into bottles and other vessels and
stored up for future use. Although
thousands of persons drink and take
away the water every day, there Is no
sign Of it's diminishing. On the con-
trary it is said to flow more and more
steadily.

TALES OF MARRIAGE FEES.-Contra-
ry to the habit of most bridegrooms,
this one sat talking to a curate who
had just performed the marriage cere-
mony in the rectory Of church that
has a reputation as being a haven OF
refuge for those who wish to become
husband and wife in a hurry. The
bridegroom kept an anxious eye on the
$50 bill he had given the curate and
which the Clergyman Lad left on the
table. Finally the couple departed.
What was that man waiting for,
Henry?" the clergyman asked Of the
old caretaker, who had witnessed the
ceremony.
His change. sir"
His change? 1 don't understand"
'I told him the fee would be $15
sir, and he was waiting for the five."
The curate, who was temporarily at
tached to the church for the summer
months took his tip from this. and
the next time a prospective bride
groom asked him what the fee was
the curate replied: What did Hen
ly tell you 1t would be-"
"Ten dollars, sir. But I've only got
FIVE"
"Oh, WELL" broke in the bride-to-be,
rather than be disappointed, I'll 90
the other five," and she promptly pro-
duced 1t from her stocking.

DELIcATE DIsooURA6EMENT.- Cort-
landville IN. " man recently said
Of the late Col. Daniel s. Lamont,
who was born there. Lamont had
always a pleasant and tactful way.
1 once applied to him for job for
my son. He couldn't do anything
for the boy, but he put me off deli
cately and told me to break the dis
appointment delicately to the lad.
This talk of delicacy and gentle,
kindly putting off reminded Mr.. La
mont of a Cortlandville happening.
He said there was once a poor
young chap in our town who fell
head over heels in love with farm
girl. The young chaps love making
was very seriously conducted. Some
times 1t seemed successful. and he
was gay. Then it would seem rather
hopeless, and he would get a fit of
the blues.
I'm a fit Of the blues one night he
confided to a friend.
I'm afraid there's no chance for
me, he said. In a delicate way that
girl is discouraging my attentions to
her.
How is she doing it?' the friend
asked.
"'Oh. mighty delicately. She told
me yesterday that she was a twin. her
mother was a twin and her grand
mother was a twin"
