Tart Old Lady.

In Indiana a good many years
ago a certain old lady, summoned
as a witness, came into court wear
ing a large poke bonnet, such as
was then much affected by rural
folks. Her answers to the ques-
lions put to her being rather in
distinct, the court requested her to
speak louder, though without much
success.
'0The court cannot hear a word
you say, my good woman, said the
judge. "Please to take off that
huge bonnet of yours"
"Sir," she said composedly and
distinctly enough this time, 'the
court has a perfect right to bid
a gentleman take off his hat, but it
has no right to make a lady remove
her bonnet"
MADAM" replied the judge, "you
seem so well acquainted with the
law that 1 think you had better
come up and take seat with US On
the bench"
81 thank your honor kindly" she
responded, dropping a low courtesy
to the court, "but there are old
women enough there already. -

Don't Speak to Your Horse.

Cares must promptly reward
performance and the voice be never
used-the horse does not under
stand your words, and if you are
angry your tones viii only further
disconcert him-while if you are
externally talking to him you simply
render him careless and inattentive.
Caress the spot you have just ad-
dressed nor think that he under
stands pat on the neck as reward
for something he has just done with
his hind quarters. Go direct to the
spot, and where two parts have been
addressed caress them both, as in
backing, the hind quarters and the
sides where the legs came, etc
and do the same thing in biting.
Do not pat the neck if you asked
him to yield his jaw. Don't re-
ward your daughter for your sons
successful geography lessOn"-that
is the idea in a nutshell.-From
directing the Saddle Horse" by
F. NJ. Ware, in Outing Magazine.

Corruption Of Names.

The name of Applecross, the old
Ross-shire seat of the Mackenzies,
is a modern corruption of Aberero-
san, meaning sat the mouth of the
Crosan," the little river which there
flows into the Atlantic. The names
Of many places in Scotland have I'M
dergone changes as curious and
confusing. The thousands Of travel
ers who weekly alight at the fine sta
ton of St. Enoch, in Glasgow called
after the neighboring church), no
doubt identify the name in some
vague way with the patriarch
Enoch, mentioned in an early chap
ter of Genesis. 1t is really a cor
rupted form of st. Thenog, or The
nav, who was the mother of Kenti-
germ, Glasgow first bishop and pa
tron saint and who is the subject
of as quaint a legend-as any to be
found in medieval sacred history.

TENDRILS.
Moving Parts Which Are the nBrains
of Plant Life"

tNONiHG EalIS Whit ftIG 1llto
of Plant Life"
There are two classes of plants
which are melted by mans presence
to describe certain definite move
ments. One class, the sensitive
plants, retract their leaflets as we
approach them, as if they resented
any attempt at closer intimacy,
while the other class, comprising all
those vines which develop climbing
orgaps called tendrils, viii reach
out toward US if we place our hands
IN contact with them and viii even
use a finger as a support to climb
upon. We know that these tendrils
will wind just as readily about a
twig or a grass stem, but as one
feels these sensitive strands multi
ply their encircling coils about ones
Fingers there almost seems to be es-
tablished between us and the Eege-
table world a more intimate rela-
tionship than has ever existed be
fore.
Tendrils are indeed capable of
exhibiting faculties and going
through evolutions more wonderful
perhaps than many of us realize.
It is only after we have seen them
at work, testing with their sensitive
tips the objects they come in con
tact with, apparently considering
their suitability as q support and
then accepting or rejecting them,
as the case may bet is only then
that we realize how justly they have
been called the "brains of plant
life
The thoroughness with which
these wandering ii s explore their
surroundings is illustrated by an IN
stance l observed in a grapevine
tendril. A cherry branch whose
leaves had been variously punctured
and scalloped by insects hung near
the tendril, and a particular leaf
had just one small hole in its blade,
not over three-sixteenths of an inch
in diameter. So careful had been
the exploration of the leafs surface
that this one small hole had been
discovered by the tendril, which had
thrust itself nearly three inches
through the opening. = Harper's
Magazine.
