THE WATERMELON.
Africa Is the Original Home Of This
Luscious Fruit.

Africa Is the Original Home Of This
Luscious Fruit.
The humorists always associate the
African with the watermelon. assum-
Ing that the taste of the coored man
for his favorite dainty arises from his
life in the southern states. where the
melon vine grows like weed.
AS fact, however. the African taste
for the watermelon is hereditary. The
vine is native of Africa. where 1t is
found wild in the great central plains
of the continent. and has also been
cultivated for many ages.
In Egypt the melons grown along the
Nile rival those of southeastern Mis-
souri,.
The melons mentioned by the Israel
ties as being among the good things
they had in Egypt were undoubtedly
watermelons. for in the wall paintings
about the time of the exodus the melon
vine is represented. and in one case u
long procession of slaves is depicted.
each bearing on his shoulder a huge
dark green watermelon.
Botanists say that varieties Of the
melon are found in southern Asia. and
some even claim that the plant grows
wild in central and South Africa, but
Africa is no doubt the original home
Of the melon. and in his preference
over every other kind Of vegetable or
fruit the African merely displays 4
taste that has become fixed in his race
by thousands of years Of indulgence,
for in central Africa ripe watermelons
are to be had every month in the year.

HORNET SENTINELS.
II Would Seem That These Insects

It Would Seem That These Insects
Keep Guard Over tho Nests.
Is a hornets nest guarded by senti-
nels, after the manner of ant hills?
1t is not so easy to decide, for their
private habits do not invite familiar
approach. But some experiments
seemed to point that way. No noises,
however near or strident, had the least
effect upon the workers. Blow on
divers instruments as loudly and
shrilly as I would, they poured in and
out of the gate or labored on the walls,
intent wholly upon their own affairs
But ut the slightest jar upon the win
dow or shutter, out few a bevy Of
irate insects and flung themselves
against the wire window screen with
an angry bump" that showed how
good was their intention at least to de-
fend their home. 1t was always SO. A
squad of workers. free and ready for
aggressive duty, seemed to be lurking
near the gate, prompt to sally forth
upon alarm. Even at night few kept
near by, and. although their port had
lost its vicious swing and they moved
about with sluggish pace, like sleepy
watchmen. rs doubtless they were.
they left upon the observer the impress
sion that they were on sentinel serv-
ice, in which the community was never
lacking.-Dr. II. G. McCook in Har-

Michelanqelo.

Michelangelo stood in the front rank
both as painter and sculptor. In
both arts he was worthy Of the high
est praise. The fresco of the Last
Judgment in the Sistine chapel is
considered the most wonderful picture
in the world. showing the omnipotence
of artistic science and the fiery daring
of conception that but few other paint
ings can even approximate. In sculp-
ture the "Moses" and the Slaves" not
to mention other pieces, rang among
the finest creations of the art and pro-
claim Michelangelo to have been as
masterful with his chisel as he was
with his brush.-New York American.

SCHOOL TEACHER
and Coffee Drinking.

Many good people are 10th to give up coffee, even though they admit that 1t is doing them harm, because they fear that noth ing else In the way of a hot beverage will satisfy them. A school teacher says:
 q always enjoyed coffee for break fast. The day seemed lost without 1t. But in time I began to experience bad results from it's use. grew very ner- vous and lost flesh and finally was pros trated by q complete nervous break down. Then was compelled to aban- don the use of coffee.
 T adopted Postum as my hot bever- age at breakfast. Have been using 1t for more than two years. My health is restored and I am able to take an interest in life once more.
 My whole family. children and all, drink Postum, and we all thrive and keep healthy on 1t. It Is to us a de- lightful drink, delicious and tempting and with none of the harmful effects that usually follow the use of coffee. The choicest brands of Java and Mocha, offered free. would not tempt us to quit the use of Postum."
