SUN DIAL NOTICES.
Famous Examples Which RarHgc
From Grave TO Gay.

Very curious inscriptions appear
on many sun dials, such as the one
on Paper Buildings, in the Temple,
says the Gentlewoman, which bids
one abruptly "Begone about your
business" and again in Pump Court
we are told that shadows we are,
and like shadows depart"
Others on various sun dials are:
"The day will come" Everywhere
the same" Behold we fly," II show
by the kindness and splendor of the
sum-" "This is the day." Learn to
value time" Il fly while you behold
me-" Enjoy the present hour" "The
shadow moves though | am at rest"
al set to rise" Days make years"
81 stay for no man." "The day flies"
"Such is llfe," Man is but sha-
dow" Redeem the time" Lying
does not belong to me-" "The bright
est day has its shades" You pursue
a shadow" 1.-THE sun causes the sha-
dow" You may waste, but cannot
stop me-" Life is fleeting as the
shadow" LET not the sun go down
on thy wrath"
Vertical sun dials could be placed
on a south wall with but little trouble
and less material, for It only required
a dial to cast a shadow on radiating
incised lines marked on the wall.
These osten appeared on churches and
were generally near the southwestern
angle.
Sometimes sun dials even APP
peared in stained glass windows.
These are still to be seen in Lambeth
Palace, and at one time there was
another in the Church Of All Hal
lows Staining, Mark lane.
Another kind of dial was of a port
able description known as the rim"
type, to be worn on the finger, the
light finding its way through tiny
hole. OF these the rarest sort known
was furnished with a combination OF
projections for throwing the shadow
of the sun. Cardinal Wolsey had one
made in brass gilt on which were en-
graved his arms. Other portable ones
were a sort of combination Of dial
and compass and folded up.
Then there was the pillar sun dial
with which we are familiar. OF this
kind the baluster shaped pillar IL
most frequently seen, though Of
course there are many variations
some taking the form of columns
more or less carved and decorated.
In more recent years sun dials o.
growing shrubs have been made al
ornaments to lawns, such as the ont
at Broughton Castle, near Banbury
The hours are made of growing boz
or yew embedded in minute frag
ments of smashed marble; the ur
right dial, also growing, is of yeV
and is cut and trimmed into shape
Around the whole is written in let
tiers of yew Memory lives, but thu
hour flies"

SOIL FOR APPLES.

Aprles do not grow without some-
thing to grow from. They need more
in the way of fertility than they can
draw from the sky or from the tired
and WORKOUT soil. II this food is not
supplied. the trees resent it by with
holding their harvest. If your trees
are not doing so well as they should,
try 400 pounds Of bone-meal and 200
pounds of muriate of potash per acre.

Oueer English Villages.

The English village is very dear to
the hearts of poets and painters, and
thousands Of them are certainly
charming. A few, however, are more
amusing than anything else, as, for
instance, one which consists entirely
of old railway carriages, even the
chapel being composed of four-horse
trucks. Another village, with pop
ulation Of 100, and taxed at the val
uation Of $4,000, has neither school,
church nor other public building, the
only thing of the sort being a letter
box on a pillar.
Villages with but single inhab-
liant are not unknown, one OF them
being Skiddaw, in Cumberland. The
single villager complains bitterly be-
cause he cannot vote-there being no
overseer to prepare a voters list, and
no church or other public building on
which to publish one, as the law re-
quires. The lonely ratepayer in a
Northumberland village has declined
to contribute money to maintain the
roads, remarklng that the one he has
is quite good enough for its use. In
the Isle of Ely is a little parish with
about a dozen inhabitants that has
no rates, as there are no roads or
public institutions of any kind, and
consequently no expenses.
Kempton, near Bradford, can prob
ably lay successful claim to the dis
tinction Of being the longest village
in the world, as it struggles along the
road for a distance Of seven miles.
Sometimes a village will entirely
disappear, having been built either on
the edge of the crumbling cliffs that
make part of the coast line, or over
an ancient mine. One of the latter
class is in Shropshire, and each year
one or more of the cottages tumbles
as the earth sinks beneath THAR

ENGLISH BRIDE-ELECT'S WISH.

miliar phrase in obituary announce
ments, and now "No presents, by re-
quest" has made its appearance in
the newspaper column in which fash
ionable engagements are announced.
The first bride-elect publicly to
emancipate herself from the tyranni-
cal yoke of the wedding presents is
Miss Lillian Lutley, of Oldham Priory,
Hants, who is to be married in the
autumn to Mr.. Harrington Morgan,
Judge of the civil courts of justice in
the Sudan. The engaged couple have
requested, through the press, that no
presents be sent to them. Letters
expressive OF good wishes, they add,
will be very acceptable.

The rule laid down by the department of
English in the Omaha High school in re-
gard to those who are to be eligible to com
pete for places on the commencement pro-
gram is that only those students who have
an average OF ninety or above in English
for the eleventh and twelfth grades Of this
study shall be allowed TO try. This rule
really means that the student must have a
good average for the entire four years
work in English and his other work, for
to get an average of ninety or above in
the last two years work one must be pro-
ficient in the first two years, and to be
eligible in number of points one must keep

Teachers college of Columbia university
has singled out a young woman for an
honor that has but few presidents in the
history of the institution. Miss Abby Lc-
land has been chosen fellow in education.
She is one Of three women on whom, SO far
as the college records show, this signal
honor has been conferred.
Since 1902 there have been fifty fellows
elected from Teachers college. Some OF
these have been honorary, some teaching,
some graduate and one travel. The first
woman in the list, Miss Ida Bell Earhart
was elected in the school year 1906-06 She
is now q member OF the faculty OF the
Providence State Normal school, The sec
ond woman was Miss Mary Davis Swartz,
who in 19V7-0S was made a travelling fellow.
She is now an assistant professor in the
school of Household Arts Of Teachers col
lege.
Miss Leland the third of the trio, has
had a remarkable career as student
Although scarcely 30 years old, she mas
