A HERO OF THE BUSH.
The Daring and Devotion Of a Bravo
Maori Youth.

Courage Is not an attribute peculiar
to the white man, nor is self sacrifice
the prerogative Of civilization. In Mr..
]. c. Firth's Nation Making is told
a story as touching in its brave devo-
ton as any tale Of the Victoria cross.
The incident occurred at Orakan.
where the English soldiers had just
defeated the Maoris. 4 little party Of
colonial troops. pursuing fugitives.
came upon three natives. two old men
and one young fellow.
The youth. seeing the soldiers, drop
ped on one knee and aimed with his
gun at the advancing party, which
halted a moment, while the old men
ran toward the forest The old men
had thrown away their firearms In
order to make escape easier.
The soldiers fred at the youth. but
missed Without discharging his gun
he sprang to his feet and ran on In
advance until he caught up with the
old men once more. Then. facing
about, he presented his gun as before.
but reserved his fire.
The weary old men gradually drew
near cover. Once more the soldiers
fired and missed; once more the gal
/ liant fellow turned and bounded on.
The Old men We're close to the forest
when the youth. nearly fainting, again
knelt and took aim. but still did not
fire.
The soldiers shot him as he knelt
| and rushed to the forest. but failed to
capture the two fugitives, who safe
in the dense underbrush made their
escape.
| On their return the soldiers found
! the brave young fellow lying dead
His gun was empty; it had not been
loaded at all. With 1t he had covered
the retreat of the old men and secured
their freedom by the loss Of his OWE
life. No more gallant deed of heroic
devotion was ever accompli he'd in
any land.

Mount Mckiniey,

In mountain climbing the world over
the climber usually arrives fresh and
unfatigued at the base Of the peak he
wishes to storm and, as rule, begins
his ascent at high altitude. On Mount
Mckinley, as described by a writer in
Outing, 1t is the opposite. There are
twenty-five miles Of rugged foothills
and glaciers to be crossed-wth heavy
packs-before the base Of the mountain
is reached, and then the climber is con-
fronted by $4,000 feet Of rock and ice.

Dreams Of the Healthy.

There has been much discussion as to
whether one dreams only on falling to
sleep and during the act of waking UP.
or whether dreams take place at any
time during sleep. While not definitely
determined as yet, the evidence seems
to be rather in favor Of the view that
one may dream at any time during
the night or the whole night through.
Dreaming is common to perfectly
healthy persons. and in itself is no
evidence of disorder.-Harper's Maya

Facts About
Great Majestic Ranges

1t is the only range in the world made of
Maleable and Charcoal.
1t has, beyond any question of any doubt
the largest and best reservoir.
It uses about half the fuel used other
ranges, and does better work by far.
The Majestic All Copper Nickeled Reser-
voir heats the water quicker and hotter than
aly other. 1t is the only reservoir with a re-
movable frame.
The Charcoal Iron body of the Great Ma
jestic Range lasts three times as long as steel
body.
Being made of non breakable material,
there is practically no expense for repairing the
Majestic.
As tor baking it is perfection, not only for
a few months. but for all times to come
A GREAT MAJESTIC RANGE lasts three
times as long as cheap range, but it don't cost
three times as much

And listed at the first gun. didn't sit
and pout
AS many a woman did, but turned to

Packed and filled their knapsacks, and
never even shirked
When the day of parting came, and my
boys marched away
Out of my sight and hearin', but oh my
hair turned gray
Before a year was over Of that weary,
worryin' time
That's never half been told of in story or
in rhyme.
They never, either of them, came home to
me again.

His First Engagement.

Colonel Mosby, who commanded the
Mosby Guerrillas during the Civil War,
was so admired and beloved by his
men, writes the author Of "Reminis-
cences of d Mosby Guerilla" that his
commands were never questioned. They
would undertake the seemingly impos-
sible at word of suggestion from him.
In the busiest part of the Berryville
affair, when teams were running wild
in every direction and the confusion
was at it's worst, Colonel Mosby saw
a SPLENDID fOur-in-hand team Of big
bays attached to heavy portable army
forge which had become upset on the
pike, and from which the horses were
struggling in vain to free themselves.
Turning to me, he ordered me to take
man and extricate the team from the
tangle they were in and bring them
out safely That sounded just as easy
as il he had said, "Talze cigar" but
a young fellow who had joined the
command only few days.
When we galloped up to the strug-
Cling team and began to untangle them
we were fired upon by lot Of in
fantrymen hidden behind a stone fence.
When the rain of bullets fattened
against the metal Of the forge it sound
ed as if there were thousand Of them,
and my young companion, this being
his first engagement, toppled over in a
dead faint.
1t was no time just then to look after
a sick man, for our horses were frantic
with fear and excitement, and I had
to hold both of them when the boy fell.
I let him lie where he was and in time
got my team untangled and tied Sc
curely. 1 was just ready to lead them
out when my youngster revived. Get
ting up in q surprised way, he jumped
on his horse and galloped off, leaving
me to mount my half-mad charger and
get my team out as best | could.
That boy developed into one Of the
best soldiers in the command, and until
the end of the war was up near the
front in every engagement. This was
one Of the ways Of beginner had to
be initiated into our service.

Lima Beans as a Special Crop.

Lima beans are very profitable, if
picked green and sold in the general
market, or by commission merchants
They are then sold in the bulls, though
SOME shell them. They require consid-
cradle labor, as the daily picking and
Smelling are items of heavy expense,
while the cost of poles and cultivation
adds largely to the outlay. There are
''poeless,' or dwarf, varieties, however,
If sold dry they are failed, the yield
being from 10 to 80 bushels per acre.
according to the variety and fertility
of the soil They are greatly reduced
in yield should dry weather occur. The
most profit is made by selling them in
the green condition. Under favorable
conditions as much as 5000 per acre can

age for an acre of green beans. Potash
fertilizers are preferred. A mix

pounds acidulated phosphate rock and

would be a proper application on many
soils.
