A Vegetable Lizard.

An attache Of the Smithsonian In
st1tution tells of a curious inhabitant
OF tropical forests called the lizard
tree, but which, as he remarks, might
well be termed the centipede plant.
This singular growth consists of "a
stem Jointed like bamboo, with
green leaves growing directly from
the bark, and slender white roots
springing from the joints, with which
it maintains it's hold upon the bark
OF the tree whereon it grows. When
it has attained length Of three or
four feet the lower sections of the
lizard plant drop off, and, fastening
upon any convenient object, begin
their Independent growth.
When thus growing upon the
ground, it the plant encounters tree.
it Immediately begins to ascend the
trunk. Citrograph.

try It, he replied Father says YOU
never know what you can do unless
you try. He's always wanting me to

YES" muttered Junius, still more
interested. Fathers seem much
alike, whether they live uptown or
downtown"
Cant we go faster?'' asked Ed
ward Billings Henry, sitting on the
edge of the seat.
Junius shook his head. s.Too

that job, now-youll not be the only
boy after it. There will probably be

the boy.

The boy stretched out a thin arm
defiantly, and closed his fist.

good muscle. and on my legs it's bet
ter yet. Just now I've got stone
bruise on my big toe, but 1 tell you

ever be sorry he took me-"
"Yes, I'm inclined to believe that
myself" mused the man. but how
are you going to make him believe
that in the beginning?"
The boy raised his lame foot and
gently rubbed the swollen big toe.
WELL" he began, I'm going to talk
up big. Father says you have to
sometimes when nobody's round to
do it for you, and he says it's all right
if you do afterwards just as big as
you talk"
The driver wagged his head wisely

I'm out of job, that's ALL" The
boy mounted the step and clung to
the seat, proffering his nickel. .Ill
pay just what I'd pay on the car" he
argued, $50 you'd be making some
money as wells giving me lift.''
The goggled eyes looked at the
nickel in the dirty hand, and then
Travelled up and down the small figure
back Of the hand. The eyes noticed
that while those parts Of the boys
anatomy which had been exposed all
the morning to the city dirt had col
lected CRIME, the rims, as it were, of
the exposed parts revealed hidden
cleanliness.
Congress Square is an awful way
up" urged Edward Billings Henry,
and we mustn't waste much time,
for I would like to get that job"
The small hand extended the nickel
enticingly toward the glove. you'll
be earning as much as the street car
by giving me lift,'' the boy repeated.
The drivers lips twisted a bit.
That's so." he said.
HUH" he chuckled, and grace
lessly extended his hand for the nick
ell. Get in, my man, and I'll give
you the lift. -
Edward Billings Henry drew deep
sigh of relief, dropped the coin into
the others palm and engulfed him
self in the soft front seat.
Whom have the honor of giving
lift?'' asked Junius, formally, drop
ping the nickel into pocket, where
it lay alone. After it he sent curious,
lingering smile.

agreed, gravely. you intend to de-
liver the same goods that you sell.
Let's hear what you have to say"
We'll, if you get me there in time
to say anything, I'm going to tell Mr..
Florins that father went to school
a lot when he was young. He went
through high school and got all ready
to go through college,"
Edward Billings emphasized his
verbs as if going through" was sole
ly a physical exercise on the flying
wedge order, and Junius chuckled.
Then I'll tell him that father
stood almost at the head of his class
in high school, and he almost took
lot of honors."
"Well,'' assented Junius, ..that al
most is a step further than a heap
of the rest Of us got.'
YES" exulted the boy, 'I guess
Mr.. .Florins will say so, too. Then
I'll tell him that father taught a
lot when he couldn't go through col
lege.'
What next? ?" inquired Junius.
Iney were approaching Twelfth
street now, and the car was hardly
moving in the press Of vehicles.
Edward Billings curled his bare
toes under, and unconsciously pushed
forward with all his slender might.
Then I'll tell him that father used
to read lot, laW-books and things,
same as he does"
But see herep' interrupted Ju-
MUS. 'All this talk will be about
your father. What are you going e
to say about yourself?''
A cloud overspread Edward Bill
lings' face. He raised a pair of
troubled eyes to his questioner,

sell papers and help father"
What does your father do?" asked
Juniuss
The boy hesitated. His face flushed
and he looked up uncertainty at the
goggles. HE used to teach, I told
you," was the evasive answer, until
his eyes gave out
And now"
Edward Billings Henry wriggled
about on the padded leather. He's
always had bad legs'-the evasion
continued-''but his arms and back
are strong. and his legs all right to
stand on"
Yes" insisted Junius, and waited
So he's doing something he amt
going to do If I can get this Job.
Then could sell papers after and
before Office hours, and earn lot Of
money" Edward Billings Henry
talked rapidly, but the young man
beside him was not to be turned
from his purpose.
Then what is it he's not going to
do?"
The boy hesitated again. Father
takes in washing" he finally burst
out, proudly and defiantly, ''and I
help him, and we do it good, tell
you! No one ever complains. Father
says if you can't do what you want
to, you can try something else, and
that was all he could do, SO he
tried, and found out he could wash
and iron good, and lot of it,
Junius considerably looked
straight ahead Of him, not wishing to
add to the embarrassment of EDWARD
Billings Henry, Junior, but he could
not resist the temptation to ask, ''Are
you going to tell this to Mr.. Florins 2"
No-sir-ee!" responded the boy,
proudly. Father amt going to do
-washings-any longer if I can get
the job
The car entered Congress square,
drew up in front of an imposing
stone building, and stopped. The
driver removed his goggles and
turned a pair of pleasant gray eyes
on the boy. "Well, Edward Billings.
here we are-and-you've got the
job all right. Can you come in the
morning?'
Edward Billings Henry nearly fell
off the seat.
"W-hat?' he stammered.
"The job is yours" smiled the
young man. Il happen to be that
same Mr.. Florins who, you have as
sured me, will never regret employ
ing you. My Office is on the second
floor. I did advertise for a boy, but
had totally forgotten it, He gave
short laugh; business had never
oppressed Junius Florins. Report
in the morning, please, and we'll see
about suit and some shoes and that
stone-bruised toe.''
Out of the automobile Edward Bill
liLgs Henry tumbled in a 6azed con-
dition, and stood beside his new en-
ployer, looking up speechlessly.
III advance you car fare on
your salary" the young man con-
tinued. He carefully avoided the
pocket where lay the nickel previous
ly owned by his passenger, and pro-
ouced the change. "And, Edward
Billings. just tell your father from
me that his maxims work out so well
that I'm thinking of adopting them

There was a north-bound car tenn

In stature Edward Billings Henry
was briefer than his name would in

THE MAN WHO WINS.

The man who wins is the man who works
The man who tolls while the next man shirks.
The man who stands in his deep distress
With his head held higa in the deadly press
Yes, he is the who wins
The who wins is the man who knows
The value. of pain and the worth of woes
Who lesson learns from man who fails
And moral finds in his mournful walls. =
Yes, he is the who wins
The man who wins is the man who stavs
In the unsought paths and the rocky ways.
And perhaps, who fingers. now and then.
10 help some failure to rise again,
Yes, he is the man who wins.
And the man who wins is the man who hears
The curse OF the envious in his ears
But who goes his way with his head held high
And passes the wrecks of the failures by
For he is the who wins.

DUN TRADE REVIEW

New York, Nov. 3.-R G.. Dun
says:
Scarcity of stock is disclosed as
business expands, and throughout
all industrial channels there is a
ments. DR. goods merchants are op-
Grating on a more liberal scale than
at any time since year and a half
ago. Cotton mills are rapidly re-
suming. but accept business only
where the raw material is controll-
ed and an assured basis of profit
can be establ shed. Some prices
have already advanced and othe-s
are contemplated. Export business
continues restricted, foreign buy
ers considering the higher values as
excessive. While the clothiers and
tradesmen has ascertained the trend
of demand, there is still an incl ma
tion to proceed caut t'ously in plac-
ing orders for duplicate lines of
spring woolens, so as to be prepared
for the normal quantity of cancella-
tions. A better movement of spring
goods is ant c.pated as soon as
cooler weather reduces stocks of
heaYyweightg.
Manufac urers OF boots and shoes
report substantial increase in the
orders placed by jobbers and re-
tailers, whose stocks have been cl-
lowed to become depleted. and who
now anticipate much larger de-
mand.
