WOULDN'T SELL HIS CORN.
But Westerner Was Willing to Help
 Ills Nelghbors.

From the Kansas City Journal.
 This story Is told on David Brewster. a farmer who liyei near Delphos for i0 years. During grasshopper time many years ago, MT. Brewster fortunately had a crib of corn, and corn got to be worth more than money in that part of tho state. Two new settlers who were just about starving went to buy little of tha grain.
 MT. Brewster,r said one of the would- be buyers, twill you sell us a little of that corn?"
 Mot an ear," was the reply.
 But we are nearly starved, and hera Is the money; just name your price," said one of the men.
 Put up your money. I'm not selling any corn" he replied.
 But we will pay you s5-s1O a bushel''
 Didn't l say I wouldn't sell you any corn?"
 The men turned to depart.
 Say" called Brewster drive around to the end of the crib and put in ten bushels, but not an ear more. I'm not going to get rich off my neighbours mis- fortunes. There are a lot of people around here who will need corn, and 1t must be divided into lots.''
 And the crib of corn which would have brought its owner small fortune was given to his neighbors, who were not as fortunate as himself.

Beer in Canals of Mars?

From the Lake Geneva Cor. Chicago
 Tribune.
 The delegates to the convention of As- guests at luncheon today, and in their speeches brought forth some theories which do not appear in any astronomy. Among them were these:
 That there is great beer lake on Mars. One part of this foamy sea rests against the ice and snow of the Mars pole. The other is connected with the supposed canals leading over the continents.
 That Mars is the fat mans joy because he weighs so much less there. w. H. Taft could easily jump 20 feet into air on Mars as he can inches on earth. With their biggest equations and modern appliances the astronomers cannot figure what Bryan would do there in the way of jumping, however.
 The astronomers do not like for the poets to write of the stars and planets. They say they are so ignorant. As to .ssnowy poles of moonless Mars,' they say that Is rot, for Mars has two moons a local moon that makes the round trip in 20 hours, and an express moon that makes 1t every hours. They say that the latter has not pulled in a second late in 5000, GOO 1000 years
 It was the unique luncheon given by Mrs. F. B. Frost and ladies of the ob- servatory that put the star seers in their happy frame Of mind The table decor ations of moon vines and sunflowers, and star sandwiches, star dust fcings and crescent peppermints were served.

A Branch Duel.

From the New York Evening Post.
 A fierce duel has just been fought in France by two captains in the army with names suggestive of old, unhappy, far-off things and battles long ago. Gerard and Angel What names for the novel of the historical romantic school The cause of the duel is nobly ignored; such trine does not count. But we can be certain that 1t fitted in with high tradition and was in tone with delicate etiquette. Ths prosaic realist soemnly records the meaningless fact that the duel lasted half an hour and came to an end only when both men had been painfully wounded. The word ''painfully'' Is shockingly out of place In a picture that should be as suggestive of high pleasure. resulting from perfect form and beauty, as in 8 painting by Watteau. But it was not an artist who sent the dispatch, and prob ably not Frenchman. For no matter how practical he may be, Frenchman never loses the high instinct for enjoy ment. Captains Gerard and Ange. living through the conventional forms of glory, did not regard themselves as ''painfully wounded" Perish the thought.

The Training of NoveIIsts.
le London Times.

From the LOnd0n I1meS
 Fielding was a playwright before he became a novelist. He was also a country squire, a barrister and police magis- trate. Richardson. the son of carpen- ter, rose to be the head of prosperous business before he became a novelist. Defoe had many employments besides that of writing. Smollett was a surgeon both on land and sea. Sterne was a parson. if not a good one, and Scott was a sound lawyer who never neglected the duties of his legal offices. All of these novelists are masters of the. art of address. They all wrote out of full knowledge and made themselves plain to plain men. Their works survive. partly of course be- cause they were born writers, but partly also because they knew much of lifa and could tell what they knew so that every one should understand 1t.

Bees Protect a Leopard.

From the Wide World Magazine.
 recall one occasion when a leopard was supposed to be located in 8 cave near camp. The guns were placed around in positions commanding the exit, and a few stones were thrown in. There was no result at first, but as more and larger stones crashed in there came faint humming, and then roar like the sea under the cliffs. In moment the air above the caves entrance grew dark with-bees! As one man, sportsman and gun-bearers fled for the camp! A few were slightly stung before they could reach their tents and pull the flaps over the entrances, which the bees for some time besieged. Incredible though it.may sound, it Is the truth that, although the camp was full of native servants, hor- ses, cts, none of those who remained behind, and were not concerned in the attack on the bees cave, were stung! It was considerable time before the bees beat retreat, but during all the time that they stayed in camp it was the tents of their aggressors exclusively round which they buzzed.

A Wonderful Tree.

From the Chicago Journal.
 Among the curiositles of tree life is the solar. or whistling tree. of Nubia. When the winds blow over this tree 1t gives out fute-like sounds, playing away to the wilderness for hours at a time strange weird melodies. It Is the spirit of the dead singing among it's branches, the natives say, but the scientific white man says that the sounds are due to a myriad of small holes which an insect bores in the spines of the branches.
 The weeping tree of the Canary Islands is another arboreal freak. This tree in the dryest weather will rain down show CTS from its leeyas, and the natives gather up the water from the pool formed at the foot of the trunk, and find it pure and fresh. The tree exudes the water from innumerable pores situated at the base of the leaves.

ous phenomenon. The island I lived on was about miles long In winter time, but the heat of summer was so intense that 1t would expand the island to the extent of about four miles, and so she d go on expanding and contracting from year to year in the most extraordinary manner. I know just after I went there bought place of 12 acres of a man. It was summer time, and I paid him go much an acre. When the cool weather came I found that 1t wasn't more than half the size 1t ought to be, and the trees were crowded up together so close that you couldn't walk through them. Took advantage of me- the man did I ought to have bought in the winter"
 Was 1t prolific soil?'
 Well, yes, when the season was good. In real hot weather things were slow in growing. But ordinarily my corn would be between 300 and 400 feet high, and the stocks from six to nine feet in diameter at the base. We cut 1t with axes. The ears were generally about the size of large lobster. There was a man over on one of the islands named Smith, who used to raise one turnip year. and that was enough, because a single turnip would cover three quarters of an acre. But one good growing season Smiths turnip grew so fearfully that 1t covered the entire island, and Smith had to move off and go up on the side of volcano back of his place. However. the turnip would grow; couldn't be stopped, you know; and it did grow until finally it got so heavy that 1t sunk the island"
 Did what?'
 Sunk the entire island, and that, you know, let the ocean into the volcano. This generated steam so fast that the whole thing exploded, and Smith was blown 63 miles out to sea- and picked mp. discouraged by San Francisco ship. He told a friend of mine that that was the last turnip he would eyer raise.
 'Yes, sir. 1t was hot in those regions. Let a man in good health step out of doors in the middle of the day and he'd come back all black and wrinltly, exactly like dried beef I've known men who cured themselves in that way SO that with couple of days in the smokehouse they'd keep for 200 years, alive and good as ever"
 "Alive?'
 "Yes, alive. And evaporation was so great that I've seen the ocean fall 15o feet under a hot sun until you could wade 20 miles from land.'
 Did you ever do it?" asked the Major
 ''Often. I've waded 40 miles out"
 ''I thought you said the water was boil ing hot"
 Boiling hot? Well. I believe I-oh, yes, of course, boiling hot sometimes. but-but. of course, I wore my boots No, sir-if any man catches me telling a lie I give him leave to kick me on the. spot"
 Then uprose the Major. and elevating the toes of his boots, he applied 1t to the rear elevation of Abner, and sent him whixzing out into the street Abner nioked himself nn. brushed the dust or

WEATHER WAS A LITTLE TOO WARM With Thermometer Up To 400
 In The Shade IN THE CANNIBAL ISLANDS No Stoves Were Needed for Cooking Purposes-Shoes on Horses Got
 Red Hot and Legs
 Burn of.

New York Weekly.
 '"Talk about heat,' said Abner Byng, as we sat upon the porch of Jones s country store trying to keep cool, "this is nothing at all to what I've seen; it's 'coolness absolute frigidity. Why, when I lived out in the Cannibal islands, back here in 1873, if the people would see the thermometer fall to 100 degrees in the shade they'd get out their skates and be- gin to consider the probabilities of an ice crop"
 How high did it used to get?" asked Major Potts.
 Generally up to 400 or 300 in the shade They never did their cooking with fires out there. Always baked their bread in the sun. Lay a steak on the window sill and it would be done on one side before you could stick a fork into it to turn 1t over. The water was hot, too. People never thought of trying to get cold water to drink. Put a leg of mutton down a well and it'd come up boiled, and you could pump mutton soup out of the well for two or three days. The first time went to swim fin the ocean out there didn't know about it. and I was nearly scalded to death"
 Tn the ocean?"
 "Yes. sir: in the Pacific ocean. Why, a dog in that country couldn't put down four legs at time. He would go on three legs SOS to give the other one a chance to cool It was common thing for horses to get their shoes red-hot. and one summer I remember the pavements got so warm that several horses had their legs burned of clean up to the knee

Animals Poor Sailors.
From the Fur News.

The Polar bear is the only wild animal that likes a trip on the water according ito French scientist, who has studied its behavior at sea. He is quite jolly when aboard ship for all other animals violently resent such voyage until sea- sickness brings silence.
 The tiger suffers most of all He whines pitifuly, his eyes water contin- ually and he rubs his stomach with his terrible paws. Horses are bad sailors and often die on a sea voyage
 Oxen are heroic in their attempts not to give way to seasickness. Elephants do not like the sea. but they are amenable to medical treatment. A good remedy is a bucketful of hot water containing three and one-half pints of whisky, and seven ounces of Quinine.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-09-12

From the New York Evening Post.
 Rev. w. E. Barton of Chicago thinks that Ia sermon would be befltting open ing to each major league baseball game played on Sunday" Hitherto. the talk ing up of collection at the gate has been the only religious preliminary. Rev. MT. B.'s further suggestion that Sunday games be opened with prayer shows how necessary will be a revision of Casey at the Bat" Thus, in place of the we'll known quatrain, we shall read: Oh somewhere in this pleasant land the
 sun is shining bright;
 And somewhere faces gladden., and
 somewhere hearts are light; And somewhere practice batsmen knock
 up practice flies in air; But there's no mirth in Chicago; mighty
 Casey is at prayer.
