Those Mystic Signs.

A story is told Of the most conspiou-
Gus joiner in a thriving Western city
noted for its many lodge members.
Indeed, it is said that everybody be-
longs to at least ore lodge and nearly
everybody to two or three. Recently
O new family came to town, and looat-
ed just across the street from the past
mastere Of all the organizations. One
day, week later, he caught the g.
year-old son of the neighbor as the
lad was passing, and with few pre-
liminary remarks led up to:
"Say, my by, is your father @ Ma.
son?' 49,
"No, sir" was the sharp reply.
"Probably, then, he is an Odd
Follow?" -
"No, sir, he ain't." -. ...'.

The Girl without % Brother.

The girl without a brother is es-
pecially to be pitied. She is the girl
who is never certain Of getting the
pleasures Of life unless she is very
attractive.
She is apt to get little bit vain,
for she has no brother to tell her, as
only brother will, of her faults and
mistakes.
1t is only the somewhat doubtful
tact of brother that announces, II
wouldn't walk up the stree, with you
in that frock. You look like a holy
fright And the girl whose brother
says this to her may be certain that
he is only expressing the opinions Of
the other girls brothers, says tho
Chicago Iu,er.Ocean.
He may not do it in the most gen.
tie way, but he does tell the truth, =,
and if you ask him Why he pays a
visit to one girl he viii sit down aud
look ct you as he says:
"Well, you see, it is just this way:
From the time you get there she is q
nice girl, who gives you pleasant
welcome, and yet doesn't gush over
you, she doesn't say nasty things
about other people. She is q res,ful
sort Of girl, who doesn't expect you
to do something that tires you half
to death, aud when ahe says good-by
to you, you feel certain that she is
pretty glad you came, but she doesu'
look at you as if you were the ouly
man in the world"
That is the kind Of a description
that the girl without brother cannot
got.
Then she doesn't hear the criti
cisms Of men that a fellow would
rather not have bis sister 10 20 with
and she. is very apt, poor dear, tc
make few little mistakes. The wis
est course for her to pursue is for he,
to choose as her most intimate friend
girl who has a wise brother, and
reap the benefit of his counsel.

Spare the Birds.

Now comes the time when the birds
appear. They will sooc be fitting
through the trees, futtering along the
fences and hopping over the grass,
and now and then clear note will fill
the air, as sweet as mothers song.
It doesn't seem possible that any body
could harm one Of these bright little
creatures. But there are, many peo.
pie, but mostly boys. There should
be public opinion so fierce against
the killing of birds that no one will
dare raise q hand against them. And
&c fern .his public opinion everybody
can help. One should never allow an
opportunity to pass when he can ex.
press his indignation against the
meanest Of cruelties.
The birds are the fairest phase Of
spring timo. They vie with the Aow-
ers to make the world beautiful and
happy. They sing the joy Of the
grass, the. woods and the creeks. If
once the Dirdu wero souo, aud nature
we're dumb, we would see doleful
difference. But did you ever think Of
the practical mission Of tie birds
what good they are doing while they
are making people happy? 1t is the
opinion Of naturalist that man could
not live on the earth after the birds
had gone. Destroy the birds, and in
nine years time the bugs and inseots
would crowd man from the face Of the
earth. They would starve him out.
But it Is not to'prevent this that the
birds should be spared. 1t is for
their own beauty and innocence. Co

SASSAFRAS TEA ARISTOCkATIC.
Tree That is Closely Related to the Classical Laurel
Indianapolis News.

{ 1t is no part Of this sketch to state
| TINT when the ship was ready to sail
for home, the cGionists pleaded to be
allowed to return to their friends, and
50 abandoned the new settlement.
Pleasant weather favored the return
voyage, and in Eve weeks Gosnold had
his cargo Of sassafras safe in an Fog.
lish port.
Such glowing accounts were given
Of the New World that the next
spring Martin Pring fitted out two
vessels with merchandise to trade to
the Indians for sassefras. This time
the navigators came to Penobscot
Bay, turning southwark they came 20
the sassafras region. The fragrant
cargo was taken on at Martha's Vine
yard land tb, party reached England
in October. a ready sale was found
for the sassafras. Scores Of later ex-
plorers made handsome profits by car
rying sassafras from America to Euro.
pean markets. While the plant was
used principally in perfumes and for
medicinal purposes. yet in London
for two centuries, it was the custom
Of street venders very early in the
morning to sell hot sassafras tea under
the name of saloop, about the thor

PERFUME OILS.
The two American plants which
yield valuable perfume oils from he
wild growth are sassafras and winter
green. Oil Of sassafras is distilled in
the southern part Of the country, and
the oil Of wintergrcen in the north
ern. Both are used chiefly for flavor
ing, though to some extent in the
mixing Of medicines. Both oils IRE
so cleverly counterfeiled that !: is
often difficult to tell whether one has
the genuine article or a substitute.
For market purposes, sassafras
sprouts and twigs are put up in small
bundles three or four inches in
length. By judioious system of cut
ting, the supply of this spicy shrub
would increase rather than diminish,
for in fertile soil the roots sprout and
spread rapidly. But with this tree as
With our Christmas green's, we are a
wasteful people. Even now in some
Roosier counties the wild growth Of
sassafras is extinct.

Livy In his famous book, "The An

That nobody was left at Rome to play
during the sacrifices. This incident
shocked the religious sentiment Of the
senate. and the senators sent messen-
gers to invite the inhabitants Of Thur
to make every effort in order that the
players should be restored to the Ro-
mans. The Tiburtines, having prom
ised not to neglect anything necessary
for that purpose. caused the flute play
ers to come to the place where the sen.
ate met and exhorted them to go back
to Rome. Seeing that they could not
prevail upon them to do so, they en-
ployed a stratagem In keeping with
their character.

that music would increase the Joy Of
