''with little time and labor it would
be possible to construct a garden whose
flowers would combine to make a first
rate clock" said the botanist. 1T is
a. m. when the SOW thistle opens,' he
continued. 1T is $50 when the dande-
lion opens. 1t is when the white lily
opens. 1t is when the hawkweed
opens. At 11:12 a. M. the SOW thistle
closes. At noon precisely the yellow
goats beard closes. At 2 p. m. the
havvkweed closes. At 5 the white lily
closes. The dandeliOn closes at 8 sharp.

The bill of the canary is built for
crushing seeds-has strength. hut In
many of the doves the hill is slender
and weak. Many of the pigeons and
doves that feed on seeds have gizzards
that are large and muscular crushing
and grinding being accomplished in
that way.
It is difficult to say how much birds
experience taste probably in small
degree. Ducks and parrots have soft.
heshy tongues. but in most birds much
of the tongue is sheathed in horn.
Food may be selected by intuition as
to what is wholesome. more than by
taste.-St. Nicholas.

In Paris the municipal chemists ac-
rept milk rs pure when it contains one
ounce of Dutter and -four ounces of
solids per quart. At Bern milk must
contain at least per cent of butter
and may contain 80 per cent of water.
At Berlin the police seize all milk Of
Cered for sale which is below the legal

fatty matters This allows the dairy
men to add with safety from 10 to 10

A Paris bank c.c-k. who was carry

True economy Is not stinginess OF
meanness. 1t often means very large
expenditures. for 1t always has the
larger end In view. True economy
means the wisest expenditure of what
we have, everything considered, look
ing at It from the broadcast standpoint
It is not a good thing to save a nickel
at the expenditure OF % cents worth
of time.
Comparatively few people have a
healthy view of what real saving or
economy means. 1 have seen a lady
spoil a. pair of fine gloves trying to
rescue a nickel from a mud puddle.

street cars or teams In New York

Bargain hunters are often victims OF
false economy. They buy, because

buying all sorts of truck which does

The result is that their homes are

secondhand things are often just on
the point of giving out and constantly
need repairing. This foolish buying Is
the worst kind of extravaganza. Quail

WITH A BEDSTEAD AS BIG AS A
BILLBOARDH

{ IL wish you hadn't I don't want
a bedstead bought at auction. Is it all
brass ?"
'sAll brass? No-it's all wood. It's
just the finest piece Of mahogany you
ever saw, and there's a history attached
to it. There it comes now.
An express wagon and two men came
driving up to the house with a. bed
stead as big as a bill board. To get
the head and footboards out and into
the house Mr.. Bowser had to take hold
with the two men, and when the pieces
were leaned up against the wall in the
back parlor they looked like the sides of
a house Mrs. BOWser was upstairs
crying while the unloading was going
on. When it was finished Mr.. Bowser
called her down and said:
ls'You talk about bedsteads. but if
haven't got something here to make all
THE neighoors turn green III eat my hat.
Think Of the mahogany in it when it
takes two men to lift either piecei That
wood will take a polish so you can use
is as a mirror. While the bedstead is
now fully 200 years old, it will last hun
dreds of years longer. Any furniture
man win tell you that it is worth all of
$3.50 as a piece of furniture, to say Moth
ing of the sentiment connected with it,
but how much do you suppose I paid
for it?"
Z am sorry that you ever paid two
cents for it." she replied, as she
choked back a sob.
What's thatl Are you kicking al
ready? By thunder, but [ might have
known it would be 50! Here I go and
buy q bedstead worth $3.50 for SIS,
and you are shedding tears over itis'
But it's "a. wooden bedstead."
