Plateau Plains Of the Vast.

A phenomenal feature Of the desert
plains is the plateau plain. Mesas they
are called in the southwestern United
States and Mexico. These mesas, as
their Spanish name signifies, are ex-
tensive, fiat topped, table-like areas
rising abruptly from the general plain
to heights Of from 100 or 200 feet to
1000 feet or more. The great Mesa de
Maya, in northeastern New Mexico, is
$500 feet above the next lower plain
The surface of the plateau plain is
usually found to be composed of some
hard rock layer, as in the case Of the
vast Llano Estacado. or walled
plains," or staked plains, as it is called
by the Texans, or is made up Of an ex-
tensive lava flow-as, for example, the
Mesa de Maya, the Ocate mesa and the
majority Of the plains of this kind.
The surface beneath the lava flows of
the mesas is itself plain worn out on
the beveled edges Of the strata. The
plateau plain thus represents former
position Of the general plains level. 1t
is the best example of circumdenuda-
tion through vigorous wind scour.-

Famous Golf Match.

A projected golf match between two
well known amateurs and a leading
member Of the London stock exchange
for a stake of $500 recalls the famous
foursome in which the Duke of York,
afterward James H., took prominent
part on the Leith links In the year
1852. 1t was really an international
contest, in which the duke, with John
Patersone, golfing shoemaker of
great repute, championed Scotland
against two noblemen of England, a
heavy wager depending on the issue.
The duke and the cobbler had an easy
victory. thanks largely to the man of
the last. and John Patersone's share
of the stakes was so substantial that
he was able to build goodly house
in the Canongate. in wall of which
the duke caused stone to be placed
bearing the Patersone arms with the
motto Far and sure" tribute to the
cobbler's driving powers. latersone's
house. we understand. survives today.

yer. "A curly headed man kills jury.
He always causes 1t to disagree"

"It is the gospel TRUTH" the lawyer
persisted. "Curly heads are as obsti-
nate as mules. They think they know
1t all. They disagree with everybody.
ut is because" he hastened to add,
their curly hair makes them so good
looking. In childhood they are spoiled
by their parents, and in maturity wo-
men spoil them, falling in love with
them on every side. SO they become
conceited. They disagree with every
body. Lawyers the world over recog-
nize that as jurymen they would never

The following bit of humor Is taken
from The Farrinpdons." an English
romance. The speakers are Mrs. Bate

but not altogether above feeling Il Ger.
tain pleasure in showing up the ways
of husbands:
"They've no sense. men haven't"
said Mrs. Hankey; that's what's the
matter with them"
"You never spoke truer word. Mrs.
Hankey," replied Mrs. Bateson. THE
very best of them don't properly know
the difference between their souls and
their stomachs, and they fancy they
are a-wrestling with their doubts When
really 1t is their dinners that are wres-
tling with them.
"Now, take Bateson hisself." con.
tinued Mrs. Bateson. "A kinder hus.
band or better Christian never drew
breath, yet so sure as he touches bit
of pork he begins to worry hlsself
about the salvation of his soul till
there's no living with him. And then
he'll sit In the front parlor and engage
in prayer for hours at time till |
says to him:

Dyeinu Real Flowers.

Every once in awhile some florist
gets busy and puts some odd colored
blossoms In his window as an extra
attraction to the display" said club
man. 81 just noticed one down the
street 1t consisted of bunch of i'm
possibly green carnations. At first
glance a good many people thought
they were made of paper, but they got
interested when they found out that
they were natural Now, anybody
who wants to have any Of these freak
flowers can get them by buying some
kind Of aniline ink, any color desired.
Carnations are the easiest to color
white ones, of course. Put their stems
in glass filed with ink. Their stems
are soft, and in short while the
larger veins In their petals are filed
with the ink. Don't let them absorb
too much color. They are prettier
with just so much. Then remove
them and put them in vase of salt
water. Lilies Of the valley lend them
selves to this scheme also. In fact,
any white, soft stemmed flower may
be used."-Philadelphia Record.

Probably the Oldest derricks still in
