masts and could carry hundred tons.
Her owner and skipper was Lorenzo
Dow Baker, the son Of whaler, and a
child Of the sea as well. He took car

carried a lot Of bananas. But by the
time he reached New York they had all
rotted. The next time he went he got
very green bananas. The fruit was not
plentiful, so he began to teach the peo-
pie how to grow them.
"The first man who has ten acres III
bananas will be rich man." he told
them with earnest conviction. lie

blacks. He was known In their homes
and at their church socials and he
helped them to build the chapel for
which they were collecting money.
He talked to the school children

For Dosing Oneself.

A physician recommends rochelle
salts for amateur doctOring. He says
that it is an excellent thing, several
times day, to take as much Of the salts
as may be put on cent in little wa
ter. That will sweeten the stomach
and act as a very desirable spring
medicine. He also speaks highly OF
soda, having no patience with those
timid people who have an idea that II
IS a dangerous dose, doing some vague
harm to the coating Of the intestines'
"Why, everything we eat, almost, has
soda in It." he cried in disdain. 1T IS
an admirable thing to take half ro-
chelle salts and half bicarbOnate OF
soda, as directed, several times day

Auchtermuchty is the happy town
which every Scot, proud Of his unpro-
nounceable tongue, uses as a shibbo-
leth to test the linguistic skill Of the
southron. If you cannot say "Auchter-
muchty" you are still an uneducated
barbarian. The meaning Of the word
happens to be as monstrous as It's
sound. "The high ground Of the wild
SOW" is not a name one would choose
for garden city. People, however, are
found to flock to it as a summer re
sort, and as 1t has a lovers pool, the
town has probably attractions more
real than its name. In the early part
of last century Auchtermuchty went
bankrupt and was deprived Of all It's
property except the Jail and one or two
other assets Of an equally necessary
character. 1t is now rich, peaceful and
radical.
