The Curious LimpeUs.

The limpets are curious kind Of
shellfsh. They resemble the abalones
in their habits. The interior is made
Of the most brilliant colors, bronze
and iridescent hues predominating
They are found on the west coast of
Mexico and are so large that the peo-
pie use them for wash basins.
They are ferocious animals and prey
with great ferocity on clans. The
process seems slow, but the limpet al
ways gets there. He gets his cover
over the unsuspecting clam and puts
his big foot on his shell, generally on
a weak spot. Then he whips out long
wiry tongue and proceeds to bore 9
hole in his captive. When this is done
the shell flies open, and the limpet is
free to feast on the poor CLAIMS car
cass. He eats but a part and leaves
the rest for the fishes of the sea.

NOT WHOLLY HIS GROWTH.


It has long been observed that In
countries where the forests are de-
stroyed the rivulets, creeks and rivers
shrink In volume. Streams that were
once good-sized brooks often diminish
to mere rills, or dry up altogether. In
connection with this well-known fact
good story is told at the expense Of
Senator Depew, Of New York.
While yet a youth In his teens, the
future Senator left his boyhood home
In the country to make his way to
success in the metropolis. Engrossed
in the struggle, he found little oppor-
tunity to visit home for ten years or
more, save for the briefest intervals.
Over this, however, his mother,
stanch New England woman Of ster-
ling principles and strong good sense,
did not repine, because her fondest
wish was for her sons advancement in
life
Greater leisure was at length posi-
BILE to young Depew, and about the
first use he made of 1t was to pay a
fortnight's visit to his mother. who
now lived at the home farm, alone.
Naturally, during these years Of met
ropolitan life, the young man had i'm
bibed some self-assertiveness and self
confidence - traits which his mother
observed in him with pride but also
with certain maternal misgivings; and
she was not one who hesitated to adj
minister BETTING rebuke on a proper
occasion.
1t CHANGED that on one Of the drives
about their native town they crossed
brook a mile or more from home,
where as a boy Chauncey had often
fshed for trout. The young man drew
rein on the bridge.
"Why, motherv' he exclaimed, "how
small the old trout brook looks to me!
When I used to come here 1t looked
like quite a large streaml But that
was before had seen the great world.
One soon outgrows childhood scenes.
But never thought should SO out
grow the old trout BROOKE
Mrs. Depew gave her son a shrewd
look, and smiled.
"Chauncey," she said, there have
been extensive forest fires up In the
hills. The old trout brook has shrunk a
good deal more than you have grown"

Short Suggestions.

Shake plenty of lime about your cell
lar-it's a great purifier.
To wash anything that is greasy, use
hot soda water. The alkali turns the
grease into soap, which will do its
own cleansing.
Once a week every pipe and drain
in the house should be flushed with
copperas solution to remove all odors
and sediment.
Every pot and pan and bit of china
and glass should be thoroughly washed
or secured, according to its kind, and
brasses should be polished.
Until the plumber can come, leak
can be temporarily stopped with mix
ture of yellow soap, whiting and a
very little water.
Carpets and rugs should be beaten
with the side that has been next the
floor on top. In this way the dust that
has worked into the pile is looSened.
Mildew may be treated with tho
chloride of lime by means of soaking
in buttermilk and spreading in bright
sun and by grass bleaching. There Is
nothing known to remove a very bad
case Of mildew.

weeds are weeds because they are
jostled, crowded, cropped, trampled on,
scorched by fierce heat, starved, or per-
haps suffering with cold, wet feet, tor
mented by insect pests, or lack Of
nourishing food or sunshine. There Is
not weed alive which will not, sooner
or later, respond literally to good cul-
ttvation and persistent selection" So
says Luther Burbank, who Of all men
in the world ought to know By selec-
ton, combined with breeding, Burbank
has produced the white blackberry, the
stoneless prune, the thornless cactus,
the plumcot-the plum crossed with the
aprieot-and the fadeless flower. He
has changed the yellow poppy to GRIM
son and has originated great variety
Of trees, fruits and vegetables. In his
speciality he is as great as Edison.
President David Starr Jordan says he
is more wonderful man than the in
ventor. He is Of that high company

already done Is regarded by him as
only hint of what may be done. He
sees vast possibilities-better grains,
nuts, fruits, vegetables, plants Of ev-
cry variety, form and color. Burbank
says it is not difficult to breed new
varieties of rye, wheat, barley, oats or
rice which shall produce one grain
more to the head, or a corn which
would produce an extra kernel to the
ear, another potato to the plant, etc.
The possibilities Of such improvement
and increase are beyond conception.
And some time, he says, we shall take
the poor weed of the wayside and
make it minister to mankind In beauty
and fruitfulness. Surely Luther Bur-
bank has discovered a new earth. AS
the noisome weed shall some day be
transformed into flower and fru1tage
shall not the neglected human weeds,
"jostled, crowded, cropped and tram
pied on" be changed also by ''nourish-
ing food and sunshine" into the like
ness Of usefulness and beauty? For Is
not human soul more than flower?

Home Instinct in Cattle.

There are 5000 head Of cattle rum
ming loose in tue Pinal basin of Arr
IONA and they are owned by 20 men.
Each animal has brand on his hip as
broad as ham, and crops, bits and un-
derhacks galore in his ears. Beyond
these marks of ownership he is as free
as deer, and, should he so elect, could
wander from the Mexican border to
the Canadian line without running up
against barbed-wire fence.
Yet such is the simple nature of cat

A Great Discovery.

Clayton, Texas, May 1.-(Special)-
That genuine cure for Diabetes has
been discovered is the opinion of Mr.. J.
II. Bailey of this place. Speaking of
the matter Mr.. Bailey says:
Il believe Dodd's Kidney Pills is the
best remedy for Diabetes and the only
one that has ever been discovered that
will cure Diabetes.
Il have genuine case of Diabetes.
l have taken seven boxes of Dodd' 8
Kidney Pills and am still taking them.
They have helped me so much that I
am now up and able to work some. /
believe that if had conformed strictly
to Diabetes diet I would now have
been completely cured"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have cured hum
dreds of cases of Diabetes and never
once failed. 1t is an old saying that
what will cure Diabetes will cure any
form of Kidney Disease and that's just
exactly what Dodd's Kidney Pills do.
They cure all kidney diseases from
