"You See them In the Grand Csntra

You see the same types not only In
New York, but In any OF the railroad
waiting rooms OF the big cities. They
don't seem to have anything to do; q
large part Of them are not even enter
tanning themselves by reading. They
appear TO be watching nothing In par
ticnlar, and yet there they sit and
wait. They don't seem To be interested
In the movements OF the trains, for
they never look up when the .bawler
comes through. They don't seem TO be
waiting for anybody, as they show
little interest In the crowds that stream
through after the arrival u every
train
"There IL the mother with the usual
assortment OF babies, one Of them al

Every animal and plant has its para

seems. the tea plant Is not exempt.
Two insects are described AZ spending
their lives in tea drinking. They are

tea mite" The mites spend their en-.

The Age Of Deer.

Romance has played prominent
part with regard to the longevity OF
deer, says writer In Chambers Jour
nal. What says the highland adase:
Thrice the age Of dog 10 that Of horse.
Thrice the age Of horse Ia that Of man.
Thrice the age Of man Is that OF deer.
Fhrice the age OF deer 10 that Of an
eagle.
Thrice the age of an eagle IL that of an
oak tree.
This Is to assign the deer period Of
more than 200 years, and the estimate
is supported by many highly circum-
stantla stories. Thus Captain Mae
donald Of Tulloch who died In 1778,
aged eighty-six years, IL said to have
known the white hind Of Loeb Trelg
for fifty years. his father for like
period before him and his grandfather
for sixty years before him. So In 1926
Macdonald Of Glengarry Is reported to
have killed stag which bore mark
on the left ear Identical with that
made on all the calves he could catch
by Ewen-MacIan-Og, who had been
dead $50 years. Analogous stories, 1t
may be noted, are told In countries on
the continent Of Europe where deer
are to be found In any number. But.
alas, the general opinion among ex-
perts would seem to be that thirty
years or thereabouts Is the limit Of 4
deer's life.
