past few years has netted him about
500 per year. 1t is only nine years
old. The crops this year was a very
good one and the high prices paid for
peaches made 1t more than usually
profitable. He shipped TIT crates OF
peaches to Chicago and received for
the best ones $1.40 per crate. In each
Of these high-priced crates there were
40 or "A peaches, which made the price

Bearded vuItures.

In the London Geological society's
eastern aviary there is now living
splendid example Of the lammergeyer,
or bearded vulture. This species
(Gypaetus harbatus) resembles the
eagle in having the head covered with
feathers. 1t IL a distinctly handsome
bird, and, being without the bald head
Of the typical vultures, lacks their re-
pursive look. In its habits and mode
of life It resembles the true vultures,
except, perhaps. that it is rather more
dainty in its tastes. Stories have
been told of children carried of by the
lammergeyer. but they are highly i'm
probable. In some countries II is
called by a name meaning bone
breaker" from its habit Of carrying
bones up in the air and droppins
them from a great height In order to
get at the marrow. It inhabits the
mountainous regions Of southern Eu-
rope, and its range extends through
Asia Minor and the Himalayas to
China.

in these columns, winter cover is not

How We Came to Wear Clothes.

1t has been truly remarked that, in
order of time, decoration precedes
dress. Among people who submit to
great physical suffering that they
may have themselves handsomely
tatooed, extremes of temperature are
borne with but little attempt at miti.
cation. Humboldt tells us that an
Orinoco Indian, though quite regard.
less of bodily comfort, will labor for a
fortnight to purchase pigment where.
with to make himself admired; and
that the same woman who would not
hesitate to leave her hut without a
fragment Of clothing on, would not
dare to commit such a breach Of
decorum as to go out implanted.
The facts of aboriginal life seem to
indicate that dress is developed out Of
decorations. And when we remember
that even among ourselves, most think
more about the fineness of the fabric
than its warmth, and more about the
cut than the convenience-when we
see that the function is still In great
measure subordinated to the appear
ance, we have further reason for in,
ferring such an origin.-Herbert Spen.

MORE WORK FOR THE LAWYER.
Legal Light Explains Why He Had
Doubled His Fee.

Five years ago a certain man made
WILL Last week he made another
one. The same lawyer drew up both
documents. For writing the second
will the lawyer charged twice a.
much as for writing the FIRST one.
why this difference?" asked the
client. Have you attained such promi-
nence in the legal profession in the
last I'VE years that you are justified in
doubling your fees?"
Not at ALL" said the lawyer. There
was twice as much work on this will
as on your old one. You see. at that
time you were married man and
your will was short, for with .rc ex-
ception Of Q few minor requests every.
thing was left to your wife. Changes
in your domestic relations have made
another will necessary. You are now
bachelor, OF a bachelors equivalent,
childless widower. II is much hard
er to write a will for a man Of that
type than for a married man. The
man with . family usually gives away
everything he possesses in three or
four clauses, but the bachelor divides
his property among 80 many relatives,
friends and dependents and consumes
SO much time in doing 1t that the
lawyer is justified In charging him
double the usual fee"

The Prophetic Gift.

That there are persons to-day who
possess the somewhat uncanny gift of
being able to predict future events is
probably true. The wife of the late
Sir Richard Burton, the famous tray
eler and linguist, not to mention other
instances of her weird gift, announced
the very first time she saw Burton, at
the time a perfect stranger whom she
had met quite casually, that he would
be her husband. At the present mo-
ment, too, there is said to be In Amer.
lea a man who has manifested such
an extraordinary faculty of predicting
things that are about to take place

organ after death to see II II shows
any special development to account
for its wonderful gift.-The Grand

NO ESCAPE FOR HIM
MR.. BENSON CONDEMNED TO A
DIET OF HAM.
Policy of Deception Brought Woe to
New Yorker Who Was "Batch-
ing" II While His Wife
Was Visiting.

The last time Mr.. Benson told q lie
he told It to his wife, says the New
York Times. He told 1t just before
she went to Boston. The morning
she went away Mrs. Benson took Mr..
Benson into the kitchen and showed
him the icebox:
II know she said, how you dislike
eating in restaurants, SO / have left
enough provisions cooked to last you
for several days. Here are cakes,
preserved fruits, salads and boiled
ham. You can make your own coffee
and by boiling potatoes whenever you
feel hungry for them you will be
spared the horror Of restaurant fare
for at least week."
Benson surveyed his well-stocked
commissariat with pangs of insipient
dyspepsia. The prospect Of dining
alone on cold viands and boiled pota.
toes offered but few more attractions
than a course in public eating houses,
but his habitual regard for Mrs. Ben
sons feelings prevented his saying so.
On the contrary. he thanked her ef-
fusively for her tender thoughtful
ness.
That ham," said he, looks par
ticularly fine. I am anxious to get at
it now. shan't step a foot inside of
a restaurant so long as there is a
scrap of 1t left"
Mrs. Benson beamed with the hap
piness of the well-doer whose deeds
Of kindness are appreciated by the re-
cipient.
Il thought you would like It," she
said.
The next day when writing from
Boston Mrs. Benson appended post
script to her six-page letter.
How Is the ham," she asked.
In reply to this query Benson wrote:
"The ham is delicious. I eat 1t for
breakfast and for dinner. Yesterday
I happened to be in this neighborhood
at lunch time, and-will you believe
mel couldn't bear to go downtown
again without bite OF that ham, so
l came and had a snack. You were a
trump to leave me SO we'll provided
for"
Thenceforward Benson forwarded
to Boston daily bulletins Of the state
Of the ham market. For the most part
this information was conveyed In let
ters and postal cards, but on the
eighth day he rushed into telegraphic
activity. That morning he had
dumped four-tifths of the whole ham
into the garbage can, so he wired with
a strict regard for truth: THE ham
Is gone"
On the twelfth day after Mrs. Ben.
sons departure Benson received an
express package from Boston. Won.
deringly he paid the charges of rs
cents, and wonderingly he unwrapped
the box.
For the love of heaven" groaned
Benson, and resolved henceforward to
stick valiantly by the truth.
Mrs. Benson had sent him another
ham.

PEA wEEvILs AND THEIR WORK.
Examine Your Seed Before Planting
To Discover Presence Of Pest.

There Is only one generation Of the
pea weevil each year. says 8. A. John.
son Of Colorado. The eggs are laid in
early summer on the outsides OF the
pea pods when the young peas are Just
beginning to grow. They are deep vel.
low In color and glued fast with 4
sticky substance, which turns white
on drying.
When the eggs hatch, the young
grubs burrow through the pods and
into the peas where they live and
grow until after the pea is ripe for
harvest.
The presence of the weevils In the
peas may be readily detected when
the peas are picked for table use by
the presence Of dark spot on the
surface, as though the pea had been
pricked.
Before going into the adult stage
the grub gnaws round hole nearly
or quite through the skin of the pea,
so that 1t may escape when the proper
time arrives.
A careful examination Of the peas
before planting ought to reveal these
holes II they are at all numerous.
