Hypnotic Power In Animals.

An interesting instance of the hyp-
motto power possessed by good many
animals is given by q correspondent Of
the Glasgow Herald. One morning
outside Elgin blackbird was OBJ
served to be standing by the road
side. paying no heed TO the footsteps
Of the passerby. 1t was gazing fixed
ly mt four young weasels under the
hedge. which were approaching in a
semicircle, apparently to surround it.
Just then a warning cry was heard
from behind. uttered presumably by
the parent weasel, and the young ones
disappeared in the hedge. The bird
still remained powerless and immova-
BILE. and only after repeated urging did
1t fly to Il tree near by. when it gave
forth weak. frightened sound. as
though still under the influence Of the
terror which had arrested its faculties.

A lich Gate.

A Itch gate is shed. generally of
oak, over the entrance of a church
yard. beneath which the bearers paus-
ed when bringing a body for inter-
ment. Here the clergyman met the
body and read the Introductory part
of the burial service as he preceded
the funeral train into the church. EX-
amples Of old Itch gates are still to be
seen in many country churchyards. In
Wales they are more modern and are
usually built of stone. Some Of the
old Itch gates are formed with one
wide door turning on a central pivot
and self closing by means Of a rude
pulley wheel in the roof and stone
weight inclosed in an iron frame. a
primitive but effective piece of ma
chinery. In Herefordshire they are
also called "scallage" or ''scalenge"
gates. "Lich gate" is derived from
the Anglo-SaXon Itch. a corpse; hence
the north country 'lyke wake."-Lon-

He Reat the Baker.

His name was Johnny. and he was
the idol of his mothers heart In spite
of what the neighbors might say to bis
detrimeut.
You'll get my bread today before
returning to school, John" remarked
his mother to the boy while he in
dulged in his midday meal.
YES. mother" answered he and
shortly went forth to carry out his
mothers wishes.

rendered hvepence halfpenny In pay
ment of the two loaves Forthcoming.
"Breud has gone up, my boy. one
halfpenny." remarked Mr. Dough as
he held out his hand for the needful
balance.
"When?" queried John thoughtfully
as the prospect of distasteful double
journey flashed across his mind.

The Candle Tree.

One Of the wonders of the vegetable
kingdom is undoubtedly the candle
tree of Panama. known to botanists
as Purmentiera cerifera. This tree
produces from it's stem and older
branches Il great profusion of yellow
ish, cylindrical. smooth fruits, twelve
to eighteen inches long. which appear
exactly like wax candles. as the botan-
ical name implies. So close Is this
resemblance that travellers. seeing the
tree for the first time, are liable to be
temporarily puzzled rs to whether the
candles of shops are made in factories
or grown on trees. The candle-like
fruits are suspended from the branches
and bare stem by short. slender stalks.
dangling in the air. and readily give
the impression of the chandler's shop.
AS night falls and the numerous fire
flies move among the fruit this impress
sion is intensified The inexperienced
traveller is not infrequently Informed
that the tireflies perform the duty of
lighting up these candles" at night
when light is required by the denizens
of the jungle-London Strand.

THE ANTI-CUSSING LAW.


Virginia's anti-cussing law
went into effect June the ff-
teenth. The men will find it
difficult to keep out of the clutch
es of the law in Virginia, for the
bill prohibiting cursing at the
last session Of the general assem-
bly, went into effect at midnight,
Wednesday the fifteenth. The
bill is brief but Enthusiastically
clear, for it says:
IF any person shall, in the
presence or hearing of another,
curse or abuse another person OF
use any violently abusive Ian
guage to such person concerning
himself or his relatives, under
circumstances reasonably calcu-
lated to prove a breach of the
peace he shall be guilty of g
misdemeanor and on conviction
shall be fined not less than two
dollars and fifty cents nor more
than FIVE hundred dollars.

A newspaper without adver-
tisements would be uninteresting.
Worse-it would be absolutely
dull. Advertisements are the
original source and the newspa-
per's constant elixir of life. With
out them it would be impossible
as business proposition. But
there is another side to the story.
The advertising columns Of THE
TIMES will be a source of espec-
ial interest to readers if they will
take advantage of them. They
tell of many of the latest and
best things that come out of the
business world; they will keep
the reader in touch with mod
ern enterprise and commercial
activity.

Farm For Sale.

Here is an oppoi 5unity that You cannot afford
to overlook. We have to offer you within tile
limits of the great cabbage and potato growing
belt of Southwest Virginia, farm only 81 mi
southeast of Rural Retreat. The cabbage, pc
tato and stock center of Southwest Virginia,
and one of the best markets for all kinds of farm
products in the United States without exception.
Fonr miles of the road leading out to this farm
from Rural Retreat is Macadamized. The farm
is well located both for stock and vegetable
growing 1t is bountifully supplied with water
which is accessible from every field on the farm
there is first-cass spring right at the DWELL
ing Tho land is of limestone nature and re-
spends readily to good treatment. The farm
contains 23SA acres of which about 20 acres
cleared and in grass.
We consider this farm one of the best bar
gains at 1920 per acre in this whole section of
country surrounding the great cabbage and
potato belt, we venture tho assertion that thore
is not another Farm up to the standard of this
farm in this whole section within the radius OF
5h mi that can be bought for anything like the
money we offer this farm. Land owners within
the radius mentioned would not care to part
with their lands for double and thrcc times the
price we are offering this farm for. Is not this
a good criterion to go by in consid Grafton of tn
future prospects of enhancement in value of
farm7 The dwelling house is an old Imprinted
room, but comfortable house. The barn and
other out buildings are very good The real
value Of this property is in the quality of the
land. Doubtless this farm has the brightest
future before it for the investor of any in this
section.
See us promptly if interested.
