LINCOLN TRIED IT.

And That Ended the Naval Sweatbox
Punishment.
On one of MIR. Lincoln's excursions
to Fortress Monroe on the stea mer
Hartford in 1868 his attention was di-
rected to Il narrow door bound with
iron. the use of which he was anxious
to learn
What is this?' he asked.
"Oh. that is the sweatbox.'' was the
reply 1T is used for refractory and
insubordinate seamen A man in there
is subjected to steam heat and has very
little ventilation. 1t generally brings
him to terms very quickly
President Lincoln's curiosity was
aroused. This. he said to himself.

American seamen are probably sub

myself and see what it really is"

THAT no such Enclosure as the sweatbox

vessel flying the American flag.
1t was not an hour after this order
had been given before every sailor on
every ship in Hampton Roads had
heard of it. The effect was most re-
markable on the older sailors. many
of whom had themselves experienced
the punishment of the sweatbox- Some
of them wept from JOY

THE CENTURY PLANT.
1t Blooms. Says Florist, Every Tween
ty-sve to Forty Years.

I'VE ~ " - OdtS %
1.-THE regular century plant said an
expert in Horticulture. lis not a cactus
1t belongs to a family by itself. 1t has
a large. broad leaf. sometimes two or
three feet long and several inches
thick where they branch from the CEN
ter There are two varieties. one the
variegated and the other green. 'rhe
only difference is that the variegated
has a white stripe along the outer edge
of the leaf Both bloom every twenty
five to forty years. A stock perhaps
eight or ten inches i'll diameter shoots
up from the center to a height of if
teen or twenty feet. and around this
stock cluster small blossoms They are
neither pretty nor fragrant. They were
formerly supposed TO bloom once in a
hundred years.
The nearest thing to century
plant is a night blooming cereus 1t is
a cactus and blooms once in about
every twenty-five years or so. The
flower is large. very beautiful and has
a delightful odor. One plant may nave
several blossoms. but each flower lasts
only one night
There is no such plant as century
cactus. The cactuses that many have
mistaken for century cactuses' will
bloom in four or five years If kept I'M
der glass or about seven years if not
in dollhouse. Because they are so
long in blooming. | suppose. they have
been called century cactuses. and the
name has been handed down until it is
considered the proper term for them.
They bloom yearly after the first bios
SONS appear. They are just an ordi-
nary cactus. but they have pretty.
fragrant flower" Seattle Times.

An InteIIioent Cow.

A few nights ago a citizen went
home and found COW iii his yard
He drove her out. He then went into
the house and later heard the animal
in The yard again. He drove her out
the second and third times. The citi-
zeD's son came home later and found
the animal in the yard and drove her
out The citizen then made an iDves-
tigation and found the COW got in by
wading around the fence on the river
side. He hung up lantern to deceive
the COW as she came in. and the next
morning, so he says. he found the COW
in the yard with the lantern hung on
her horns. using the same to hunt out
the best grapefruit in his grove. Say
what you please, but that was an in
telligent COW. And the story is true
of course it is.-Fort Myer Press.
