An Automatic FIoqqer.

Automatic fiogging machines are in
use among the military forces Of
several European nations. For many
years the whipping was always done
bv a soldier, under the command of
an officer, and the punishment varied
according to the personal relations
existing between the soldier and his
victim. 1t was to correct this dis
advantage that the f1ogging machine
was invented.
The machine is automatic in ac-
tion, and as soon as the culprit is
fastened in position a spring is
tightened or loosened to gauge the
exact force of the blow. A pointer
is moved over dial to the requisite
number of strokes and the mechan
ism is started.
With perfect regularity the vic
TINS back is scourged by the thongs,
the handle of the whip being moved
by a screw device after each stroke
so that the lash does not fall upon
the same spot throughout the pun
ishment.
Each blow is of uniform severity,
and as soon as the required number
has been given the machine comes
to a rest and the offender is released,
with the assurance that the exact
punishment ordered has been meted
out to him.-Montreal Standard.

Most Of the Fruit Falls at Nisht-At-

Most Of the Fruit Falls at Night--At-
traction Of Salt Water for the Trees.
I'm the tropics, where the cocoanut
is wanted for planting, the nuts are
picked up when they fall from the
tree where they have hung for about
fourteen months in ripening. It Is a
fact not generally known" says the
Bakers Weekly, that a majority of
tahe nuts drop at night, which prob
ably accounts for the small loss Of
life by cocoanuts falling upon the
heads of the natives.
The action Of the heavy dew at
night loosens the seal which nature
has provided the nut and allows it to
fall. The nuts wanted for planting are
either gathered into heaps or paced
under sheds where they are allowed to
sprout before planting in order that
good healthy sprout nuts may be Sc
lsctsd, thus avoiding the possibility of
planting blind nuts that would not
sprout, in which case much time would
be lest in starting the 'cocoanut
walks as tae orchards are called.
Wien holes are dug about three feet
deep and twenty feet apart, the nuc is
carefully placed in the hole and COW
cred with about one foot of soil. The
hole is flied as the sprout grows I'M
til it reaches the surface, when it is
left to Itself, requiring no further
attention. Gkould the place where the
cocoanat IS planted be any great dis

rhe MoraI Not Foraotten.

The teacher of a class in an east
side Sunday school had spent the pre-.
vious Sunday afternoon teaching her
charges the parable of the ten vir-
gins. This day she opened her lesson
by asking: "Now, which of you girls
can tell me what we learned last
Sunday?"
There was a dead silence for a min
ute, until one girl spoke up: I can,
teacher; it was about them girls that
forgot their kerosene. but tproudly)

The same young lady invited all
her charges to come and visit her one
Saturday afternoon, and promised
them plenty of cake and ice cream.
She also pledged her big brother, who
is something of an amateur conjurer,
to come home early and assist in the
amusement of the, guests.
When big brother arrived he found

Worse Than Splitting.

Automobiles seem to be doing their
part, and perhaps flying machines
are to help, in banishing horses
from New York City. Manure farm
ers' and truck gardeners trusts COM
plain that the gases, smoke and lu'
bricating oils of automobiles are de-
stroying the fertilizing qualities OF
Broadway and Fifth avenue horse
sweepings. Well, it does help to
kill some of the deadly bacteria. 1t
seems to be the only way out of 1t;
let the authorities make up their
minds to keep it off the street in
the first place. Most horses can car
ry a receptacle on shafts with little
or no more inconvenience or discom'
fort than their breeching. All this
crusade against people splitting on
the sidewalks was a good thing, but
it really seems childish and Quixotic
when compared to horses. Robert
Koch proved that sunlight in two
hours will kill all germs in con-
sumptives' sputurn, but when a horse
litters his germs are only getting
loose to become busy in two or
three hours.-Tip, in the New York

WOMEN AS PEARL DIVERS
In Parts of Japan They Spend Most
of Their Time in the
Water.

The pearl divers of Japan are the.
women. Along the coast of the Bay
of Ago and the Lay of Gokasho the
thirteen and fourteen-year-old girls aft
er they have finished their primary
school work, go to sea and learn to
dive. They are in the water and learn
how to swim almost from babyhood
and they spend most of their time in
the water except in the coldest season.
from the end of December to the be-
ginning Of February.
Even during the most inclement Of
seasons they sometimes dive for
pearls. They wear a special dress,
white underwear and the hair twist
ed up into hard knot. The eyes are
protected by glasses to prevent the en-
trance Of water. Tubs are suspended
from the waist.
A boat in command of a man is as
signed to every five to ten women
divers to carry them to and from the
fishing grounds. When the divers ar
rive on the grounds they leap into the
water at once and begin to gather
oysters at the bottom. The oysters
are dropped into the tubs suspended
from their waists.
When these vessels are filed the
divers are raised to the surface and
jump into the boats. They dive to a
depth of from 5 to 80 fathoms with
out any special apparatus and retsin
their breath while remaining under
water from one to three minutes.
Their ages vary from 13 to 40 years,
and between 25 to 35 they are at their
prime

The origin Of the badge is obscure.
1t is commonly supposed that the
Black Prince rock it Iron the helmet
of iKng John Of Bohemia, his prison
er, and thenceforth adopted it as his
own coguizance. Even as the peculiar
badge OF the Prince of Wales, howev-
er, the history Of the feathers is un-
certain. prom the evident pride TAX
en- in them by the Black Prince we
may fairly assume them to have had
reference to his personal achieve
ments,'' wrote the late Somerset Her
aid; but, he ADDS, it should not be ig-
nored that this badge is to be found
on seals of members of the house Of
York and Lancaster, who were not
Princes of Wales. As to the meaning
of me motto, it was first suggested
by the well known antiquary, J. K.
Planche-another Somerset Herald
that it should be read "Ich diem Hou-
mont" and translated Il serve High
er Power" The late kings badge as
Prince of Wales figures in the arms
of Gull; the eminent physician, Sir
William Gull, who held the prince in
his arms for II hours during the cri-
sis OF his illness in 1871, was grant
