Druids and hdistletOe.

The Druids always sought the mis-
tletoe by the full moon and, when they
found It, rejoiced and ,worshiped. Aft
er cutting off it's twigs with golden
sickle they sacrificed two milk white
bulls beneath the tree. The sacred
shrub was then immersed in water,
and the. resulting connection became
their remedy for all diseases. The early
Christians would not permit the use Of
the mistlet oe*in their churches because
=of its heat henish origin; consequently
twas hung only within the private
abode and usually In the kitchen. ANY
maid caught ding beneath a branch
had to forfeit o kiss to- the gallant
eagerly awaiting his opp rtunity. With
each kiss 9 berry was plucked, and and
VIXEN all OF the berries disap peared the

A Brain In Your Throat.

Did you know that the throat has a
brain Of its own? suppose few peo~
pie are aware of it, but it's fact.
There is a small ganglion which exer-
cises direct control of the muscles of
the throat and acts as its brain. OF
course it is subservient to the genuine
brain, but at the same times does a
good deal Of independent thinking for
itself. It is very timid and suspicious
Of any strange objects that come near
the throat. For this reason it is very
difficult for a physician to operate on
the throat. Before anything can be
done In this direction it is necessary
for the operator to gain the confidence
Of the little brain that dominates it. It
frequently takes weeks before this con-
adence can be secured, and until it is
secured it is impossible to perform any
operation. Woe to the man who at
tempts rough treatment to the throat
before gaining the little brains conf
dence! His operations will be resented
with violent paroxysms, first Of the
throat, then Of the diaphragm, and II
the operator still persists the patient
will be thrown into commissions. Still
more curious is the fact that this little
brain has memory, and if once fright
ened in this way it is almost impossible
to ever gain it's confidence, no matter
how gentle the operator may be. -

A Freak of Nature.

The most wonderful piece Of natural
sculpture in the world may be seen by
any visitor to the Cape Verde islands.
This specimen Of natural art work is
without doubt the most colossal and
marvellous freak known to the geolo-
gfsts and geographers. San Vincente
Is the principal town of the islands,
AS the ship enters the harbor of the
above named place one sees a bold
ridge Of, dark volcanic Nocks lying in
the distance. The crest Of this ridge
forms an exact likeness of Washing
ton. the figure lying apparently face
upward, as If in sleep. The large,
bold features, the backward wave Of
the hair, the rotund form Of the mass
I've shoulders and even the frills on
his colonial shirt are reproduced on
a scale Of such magnitude and
grandeur as to be absolutely startling.
The fidelity Of the outline is such that
the freakish forms assumed by the
stalactites and stalagmites in the we'll
known natural caverns are not suita.
bic comparisons. This strange natural
monument to the greatest of American
heroes is the first object to meet the
gaze of the observing sightseer as he
approaches The Cape Verde islands.
With the boundless ocean for it's back
ground and the tropical sky overhang-
ing it, it is no flight of the imagination
when we say that the freak forms a
tableau Of overpowering magnifcence.
