Predicting by Bones.

Is it not strange that, although the
Transvaal has been conquered by
whites since 1886, the belief in Kaffir
doctors and their wizarding has not
died out? Nearly every old Kaffir has
always with him a bag of bones
knuckles and joints Of animals. With
these he pretends to be able to fore
tell the future. He throws the "dolos,"
as they are called, and then reads out
the omens. Should a white man wish
to confer with the oracle he must throw
the bones himself. 1 have known, says
a Transvaal traveller, many whites who
firmly believe in the ability of the KAT
fir doctor to cure them from sundry ills,
and I have been informed that in Rho
desia the Kaffir doctors save many
whites from the ravages Of the terrible
fevers that rage there in addition to
coping successfully with the toothache
and other ills.

Maintain It's Activity and Preserve
Suppleness of the Body.
Vital as is the physical side Of con-
serving youth, however, its true foun-
tain is in our brain. If we maintain
activity of it's cells it quickens the cir
culation of the blood, the vital organs,
gives light to the eyes, preserves the
suppleness Of the body, removes to a
distance illness, age, death itself, says
Scribner's Magazine.
Remember the lesson of the bicycle,
how the laboring man and the busy
housekeeper, ready to drop from the
days work, would go for a spin and
return after an hours exercise of those
same weary leg muscles, rested. Body
ache is often nothing but brain rust.
"He looks much older than he is"
said Won Moltke of a fellow officer;
che has used his body more than his
mind" Age was to the Frenchwoman
of the salons no excuse for dullness. To
the very last one must be pointed, ami
mated, alert. Because an age has come
when ordinarily the crust Of custom be-
gins to encase our free spirits is exact
ly the reason for keeping them elastic.
One Of the most remarkable things in
the career Of DIR. Richard Storrs was
that by far the greatest portion of that
career was after he had passed the age
of so. The Duke of Marlborough began
his career as q great commander in
1902, when he was 80 years old. Lord
Lyndhurst on the eve Of. his eighty
ninth birthday made a brilliant speech
in Parliament. Sophocles wrote his
masterpiece at So Goethe finished
Faust in his eighty-second year. AL
fieri began Greek at At and at 81 had
mastered it. Mrs. Piozzi preserved her
fine faculties, imagination and unexam-
pied vivacity to the end. On her
eightieth birthday she gave a great ball,
concert and supper in the public rooms
at Bath to over 200 persons and opened
the ball herself

French Sea Foods.

Consul George II. Jackson of La Ro-
chelle sends the following information
concerning oysters and fish on the French
coast:
1.-THE Marennes oyster is considered
the most popular in France. The oyster
parks are laid out in the space between
the island of Oleron, the island of AK
and the mainland. Each ebb tide per-
mits the waters of the Seudre to flow
over the beds. The bivalves are brought
to this locality in large numbers from
the breeding beds at Archeson. Here
they are deposited in the mud to fatten
and to take on the peculiar coppery tint
and taste, which makes the green oyster
of Marennes popular in France. Ac-
cording to the statistics of 1907, ship
ments of oysters from one of the two
railway stations gave a total Of S22O
ions. which necessitated the use of 62O
freight cars. The increase over 1906
was more than one hundred and fifty
tons.
IA number of fishes hitherto unknown
in these waters, but well known on the
Atlantic coast of the United States, have
recently appeared, among the most nu-
merous being the sheepshead and the
bluefsh. The appearance of this new
sea food has caused considerable inter
est in the fishing industry. Up to the
present time, however have only seen
fish that are large and strong. The pres
ence of shad is also greatly appreciated,
but is due directly to the fish culture in
the streams emptying into the Bay OF
Biscay. Shad bred in these waters ap-
parently differ slightly in form and color
from the American variety"

A Petrifed Potato.

f. r. Rowland of Topsham brought 10
the Brunswick Record office this week
what might be called a stone potato. 1t
was found by Mr.. Rowland in the Pur-
linton field on the Meadow road. The
stone is shaped like small potato, and
resembles a variety common in Top
sham about fifty years ago called the
''Chenango," or philadelphia" potato.
The shape is perfect, the indentations
for the eyes and where the stem would
be attached are we'll defined, and when
found about three-fourths of the sur
face was covered by thin brownish in
tegument very much like the skin of a
potato. In those places where the In
tegument has been removed the stone
shows white just like potato. Mr.
Howland's theory is that by some pc
culiar and unexplainable process of ma
ture a potato has turned to stone in
fifty years. Scientists may dispute this
theory on the ground that the condi-
tons were not right for petrifcation and
that fifty years would be too short 4
period in which to produce such q
change. 1t may be interesting to some
to know that this stone potato was
found within a quarter of a mile OF
Mount Ararat. No one need imagine,
however, that Uncle Noah lost this po-
tato from his store Of provisions in the
ark.-Kennebec Journal.

Why not go to Bar Harbor or some
civilized place?
But Pendleton fingered, and the charm
of the mountains grew on him, and the
girl across the way became inextricably
mixed up in his thoughts of Vera, until
he grew amazed and irritably anxious
to see her face to face and get rid of the
absurd illusion.
1t was in vain he scanned his volumi-
nous mail each morning. No letter adj
dressed in the firm, delicate handwrit-
ing he knew so well ever came, and he
still carried in his inner pocket that lit
tie note, Goodbye, l am gone"
Yes. the days seem to vanish like a
dream in the fastness of the Blue
Ridge.
The time drew near when he would 60
back to life's tumultuous cares and
pleasures, and Pendleton was no nearer
an acquaintance with his neighbors. He
could not force himself upon them, and
she was as elusive as some water sprite
or wood nymph.
The world had done its days work, the
sun had set behind the SUBMITS Of the
ranges in all its accustomed pomp and
glory, and faint mists were yelling the
peaks and valleys. Pendleton sat, alb
sorbed in distracting thought, by the
side Of a still lake Swallowed by tower
ing le1nlocks, when someone came slow
ly toward him through the forest path.
Hers was beautiful face, laughing
and proud and tender, and the only word
Pendleton could say as she paused be-
fore him, while he sat motionless, was:
''Vera!"
"Why, I've been your neighbor all
summer! How did you happen to come
to this wild and beautiful placer" she
asked a little while later, as she sat by
his side, When some very broken and
GREATNESS words had been spoken.

BLACK FOREST CUSTOMS.
Youngest Son Inherits Property ani
Cares for the Old Folks.

Youngest Son Inher1tS property and
Cares for the Old Folks.
The peasant farms Of the Black Forest
are handed down from father to son in a
direct line, often dating back 400 years
There is no division as in France; all
falls to the heir, only here it is not the
eldest but the youngest son who in
herits. 1t is rare that a Bur peasant
dies as reigning head. When he gets on
in years he abdicates, in order to end his
days in che Leibgedingehaus (dower
house,. which stands beside each hof,
(steading).
That he does so in favor of his young
est son is very sensible; were it the elder
he would have no peace, for as soon as
he married he would try to induce his
parents to retire just at an age when
power is sweetest and best exercised.
For this reason the practical farmers
of bygone generations decided to hand
over the succession to the youngest,
since when Benjamin is ? full grown
man father Jacob is old and glad to rest.
This law of inheritance goes by the
name of Vortel. Should the heir of his
own free will desire to resign in favor
of his elder brother the latter must buy
the property from him. In such case
the younger may be termed a kind OF
