COLOR OF CIGARS.
The Black Weeds Are Not Always
the Str0ngest Ones.

The Black Weeds Are Not Always
the strongest Ones.
Probably there Is not one smoker In
q thousand who would not be surprised
and, in fact, incredulous If he were told
that the color Of cigar Is absolutely
no guide to it's strength. Yet such is
the case and fact we'll known to ci-
gar manufacturers and importers. The
belief Of smokers that cigars of dark
color are strong and those of a lighter
shade are milder is, in point of fact, as
fallacious as it is general. This is but
one of many delusions harDored by
consumers Of tobacco which practical
cigar men have smiled at and INDUCED
from time immemorial.
A maker of Havana cigars uses but
one grade or blend of tobacco in the
body or filler of his cigars. Exactly the
same stock is used in his conchas as in
his perfectos, in his claros as in his
maduros. After the cigars are made,
however, his 'selector" takes them in
hand and classifies them according to
the relative shades of the wrappers.
This is done to effect a uniformity III
the appearance Of each box Of cigars
and to enable the dealer to readily In
dulge the whims of the self deluded
smoker.
Inasmuch as the wrapper constitutes
not more than one-tenth of the cigar, it
will readily be seen that the degree of
its strength or mildness is very incon-
siderable in effect. In this connection,
however, 1t Is interesting to note that
tobacco tradesmen versed in the intri-
cacies of the industry rigidly bar the
light colored wrapper from their own
smoking tables, knowing that 1t gener-
ally indicates that the leaf was prema-
turely cut and Improperly cured aud
that it impairs the flavor and burn of
the cigar. Cubans, who, by the way,
are notably partial to mild tobacco,
avoid smoking light colored cigars just
as they avoid eating green orange or
an unripe banana.
The prejudice Of these natives and of
tobacco tradesmen is logical one and
serves to throw into bold relief Pc
.culiar misconception of facts which is
both amusing and embarrassing to
venders Of the fragrant weed.
Whether cigar smokers will ever
awaken to the fact that dark cigar is
IL anything milder and invariably
sweeter and more aromatic than
light cigar remains to be seen.-Tobac-

ARBokEAL coURTsHIP..- :
Antics Of the Rocks when the Mat
ing Season Begins.

AAlAS0 VI INC &AOOAW WE'VE ~ "eS-
ing Season Begins.
''It is always amusing to watch the
rocks in the period Of their courtship." }"
says an English writer. "When the
male bird first begins to seek mate
the fact is soon made known to the
world at large by curious hoarsening
of his voice. There is no accounting for
tastes, according to an old proverb,
and to the female rook there is no mu-
sic equal to the hoarseness that her
lord begins to show about the middle
Of January. Then begin the violent
tournaments OF which she is a passive
spectator. The two claimants for her
favor often begin pecking at one an
other at the very tops Of the trees, and
as in the fury Of their onslaught they
lose foothold they drop and drop and
drop till they bump against the ground,
often at the very feet Of some human
onlooker who has been watching their
proceedings with interested curiosity.
Darwin tells us Of similar incidents In
the life history Of deer and cites as
somewhat of an argument against the
doctrine of the survival Of the fttest
that while two lordly and robust stays
are fighting for the hind it will often
happen that timid and feeble third
stag will come in and carry off the
prize.
'But no such capriciousness as that
is allowed the female rook. Probably
before the battle begins he who aspires
to be her future lord and master has
selected the home In which they are to
1--we, and should any other rook at
tempt to share it with her he will fight
him to the death. In this case the sur
vival Of the fittest is insured.
when once they are mated the rocks
seem to stick together and be subject
to little further molestation, though oc-
casionally, I think, a gay Lothario will
attempt to make love where he ought
not to. But In that case the whole col
ony of rocks unite against him and
peck and beat him with their wings till
be is at the point Of DEATH"

WHY INDIANS PAINT.

An Apache Legend Which Accounts
For the Grotesque Custom.
Once an old Apache Indian, when
asked the question why the people
painted their faces, told this little leg
end:
"Long ago, when men were weak and
animals were big and strong, chief
Of the red men who lived in these
mountains went out to get deer, for
his people were hungry.
AFTER walking all day he saw
deer and shot at it. but the arrow was
turned aside and wounded mountain
lion, which was also after the deer.
When the lion felt the sting Of the ar
row he jumped up and bounded after
the man, who ran for his life.
"He was almost exhausted, and when
he felt his strength giving way he fell
to the ground, calling on the big bear,
who, you know,fi IL the grandfather Of
men, to save him. '3if .,1
1.-THE big bear heard the call and saw
that to save the man he had to act
quickly, 80 he scratched his foot and
sprinkled his blood over the man.
i ..Now. you know that no animal viii
cat OF the bear or taste Of his blood.
50 when the lion approached the man
he smelled Of the blood and turned
away, but as he! did so his foot scraped
the face OF the man, leaving the marks
Of his claws on. the blood smeared
face. ~ y
"When the man found that he was
uninjured he was 80 thankful that he
left the blood to dry on his face and
never washed it at all, but left it until
It peeled OF.
where the claws Of the lion scraped
It of there were marks that turned
brown in the sun, and where the blood
stayed on it was lighter. Now all men
paint their faces that way with blood
and scrape it OF in streaks when they
hunt or SO to war;"

Friar Lawrence checks the impetu-

asperating efforts of the slow story tell

Guns have other uses than that Of
killing. We all know that hundreds
Of clocks are set from the o'clock gun
fred by electricity from Greenwich
observatory, but not everybody is
aware that rifles have supplied mois-
ture in desert countries to travellers
dying Of thirst and thus saved their
lives.
In the great Sahara some time ago,
says Pearson's Weekly, globe trotter,
who wanted water badly, found it pos
sible to collect drink out of the mere
dampness OF tie sand. He sunk the
barrel of his gun into the ground and
It collected enough moisture in the
bore to stay his thirst. A timely suck
at gun muzzle has saved many lives
In the sun scorched deserts of the
tropics.
Water ran short on a merchant YES
sci in mid-Atlantic not long ago, and
the crew did not know what to do to
obtain drink. The captain, however,
hit upon brilliant idea.
He had number Of sporting guns
in, his cabin, and, taking them on deck.
he plugged up the breech ends, hlled
the bores with sea water and set them
them end mp among the Goals Of the
galley fire.
& As the. steam gathered he ran 1t
through other gun barrels until 1t cool
ed. The steam collected In the shape
Of excellent fresh water, and in this
way the crew were supplied with suf-
icient moisture until the vessel touch

If you were to drop into the houses
OF the French peasants you would be
struck with the fact that practically
every man and woman poked his or her
fire with a bayonet.
Some 100000 bayonets-condemned
stores of the French army and used In
the Franco Prussian war-have found
their way into the homes Of poor peas
ants, who use them as fire irons.
The bark Ruth, bound from Demera-
ra to Oban with sugar. neglected to
procure chart of the Scottish coast
when setting sail. The captain had
never been to Oban before, and, not
wishing to return to Demerara to get a
chart. he looked about the vessel for 4
substitute.
He discovered CALIFORNIAN railway
time table, with the railway map at
tached. This helped him out Of his diff
dculty, for it acted splendidly as sea
guide. The Ruth cut across the Allan
tic and after sailing UP the west coast
Of Scotland dropped her anchor safely
in Oban bay.
Without this railway map the cap

Good steel wasn't obtainable when
the Germans wished to manufacture
