farm on which Abraham Lincoln was
born, which. having been sent to Lemond

in behalf Of Van Cleave that he desert

Brandenburg a guarantee of an income OF

why are yew trees found In ceme-
tcrfes onlyr' said a forester. why,
all over the ~worid-saving here, where
they don't exist-do you find In ceme-
teries great yews of immemorial age?
Antiquaries have tried to attach some
druidic significance to the matter. Yews
grow In churchyards and nowhere else
hence they were sacred to the dead in
the time of the Druids, and 1t was as
erroneous to plant them In your gar
den as to plant tombstones there. l
have exploded that superstition. On a
walking tour Of England one summer I
asked every farmer l med why he had
no yews N his place. The answer
was always the ame DO you think l

but cut 1t down. The beasties got at 1t,
and yew leaves is poison to the beast

While the British occupied Philadel-
phia and the American force lay in
winter quarters at Valley Forge, one
day as Washington and his staff were
dining a fine hunting dog which was
evidently lost came to seek something
to eat. On its collar was the name,
General Howe Washington ordered
that the dog should be fed, and then he
sent 1t to Philadelphia under a flag OF
truce, with a letter reading: General
Washington's compliments to General
Howe. He does himself the pleasure
to return to him a dog which acct
dentally fell into his hands and by the
inscription on the collar appeaSs to be-
long to General Howe" The British
commander IN reply sent a cordial let
ter conveying hds warm thanks for this

shsrpshooters of the Revolution.


As 500 as a pioneer boy was big
enough to level a rifle he was given
powder and ball to shoot squirrels.
After a little practice he was required
to bring In as many squirrels as he
had received charges under penalty of
a severe lecture or even of having his
jacket tanned" at the g of twelve
the boy became a fort soldier, with
loophole assigned him from which to
fight when the settlers rallied against
an Indian foray. Growing older, he
became a hunter of deer, elk. buffalo
and bear, skilled In trailing and In
utilizing cover, capable of enduring
long marches through trackless noun
tain forests. At night he was content
to curl up In a single blanket beside a
small fire and sleep under the roof of
heaven. If It rained. In a few minutes
he built him a lodge of bark on boughs
with nc implement but his one pound
tomahawk. Incessant war with the
Indians taught him to be his own gen.
eral, to be ever on the alert, to keep
his head and shoot straight under fire.
Pitted against an enemy who gave no
quarter, but tortured the living and
scalped the dead, he became himself a
stanch fighter who never surrendered.

Ancient Greek Women Rivsled Ath-
Ietic Girls of 1908.

The Greek maiden of 800 B. G. could
put to shame the American outdoor
girl" of 1908. whom her admirers are
apt to acclaim as the latest triumph of
feminine progress. for the discovery
of the excellence of physical training
for girls was nude not by the promot-
ers of modern high schools, but by a
Spartan lawgiyer some $500 years ago.
L~ycurgus, this Spartan lawgfver, ac-
tually enforced by law a strenuous
physical training for Spartan girls.
"Of that SEX" we are told. "Lycurgus
took all the care that was possible
For an instance OF 1t he ordered the
maidens to exercise themselves with
running, wrestling. throwing quoits
and casting darts" And we are as
sured that certain features of the Spar
tan girls training. while observing true
modesty, tended to render their con
versation free and unreserved and to
beget in them a desire, being vigor-
GUS and active and 80 them with
courage and generous thoughts. Born
of such mothers, 1t is no Wonder that
on the highest hill In their capital city
of Sparta and near to the sanctuary of
Athena the Spartans honored a sue
cessful sportswoman. placing there q
statue of E~uryIeonis, a woman who
won an Olympic victory with a two
horse chariot" or that semidivine hon
ors were accorded to their still more
illustrious Princess Cynisca, "who was
~passionately fond of the Olympic
games and was the first woman who
gained a chariot victory at Olympia"
Cynisca won her victories about 400
B. c., and a beautiful statue, still In
existence, of a girl runner at Olympia
belongs to the same period. This
maiden, feet of foot, brings us to the
women's Olympic festival, OF which.
alas, only scanty notes survive, pre-
served in the pages of an old Roman
Traveller who visited the famous site
of the Olympic games long after their
glory had departed. Just Is those
games were first and foremost a re-
ligious celebration, held in honor of
the chief Greek deity, Zeus, father of
gods and men thus every spectator Of
the games was obliged to stand bare
headed In reverence of the god, so
the women's games were held In honor
of the great goddess Hera and were
named after her, the Heroea. They
were celebrated every fourth year and
sacred college known as the Sixteen
Women. These were m%atrons, as were
the landmarks who attended them.
