The best books on the east, as every

ments and places, with tabloids of his

know nothing, enjoy nothing and come
home bringing a few expletives, adjec-
tives and photographs which can be
had for a small price in either New
York or London.
The first thing to do in going to the
east is to turn your education out on
your desk SO that you can get at the
bottom of it, and there you will find
the Bible and the arabian Nights
and the odyssey" and "Iliad' and
Virgil" and "Herodotus" and "Xeno-
phon," and you will realize what a
fool you were not to have devoted
more time to them when you were
asked to do so. Guide books can get
you to the east, but they do not get
you inside. 1t is temperament, not
trains, that counts.-Price Collier in

Muoilase and Gum.

"No, SIR the young man answered.

there are SO many new e coming

you, sir. Which number did you

II learned afterward that 1 should

the word .mucilage' over there in Eng.

But an %Englishman travelling on

BEAUTIFUL LEAVES.
And tho Tiny Cells That Give Thorn
Their Brilliant Hues.

Their Brilliant Hues.
A leaf Is one of the most beautiful
thirgs in nature, and it is very won
derful to think that it owes it's lovely
color to minute little living bodies OF
cells of chlorophyll. This word comes
from two Greek ones, chloros, green,
and rhulIon, a leaf, and is used to
describe the ordinary coloring matter
Of vegetation.
The chlorophyll cells or granules
absorb the light and heat Of the SUMS
which only scientists can understand,
manufacture the sugar which is neces-
sary for the life of the tree itself by
combining the carbonic acid gas Of the
atmosphere with the water drawn in
by it's roots. These tiny cells are so
very small that as many as 100000
have been counted in a square MILL
meter of the leaf of a castor oil plant,
and in order that they may come in
contact with as much sunlight as pos
sible the leaf turns slightly on its stalk
toward the SUM-.
If you notice the arrangement Of the
leaves on a bough you will see that
nature has placed them so that they
form an almost perfect flight screen"
and catch all the sunshine that there
is. If it were not for the constant
work Of these little c%hlorophyn cells
the splendid trees in our forests would
wither and die and there would be no
green things left in the world.-Lon-
don Home Notes.

In Belgium they place a premium on
marriage by allowing a married man
two votes at an election as against
the single mans one. In Madagascar
one must be a father or pay for the
default. If a man is unmarried or

must contribute annually $3.75 to the

who has remained single or is child

THE cYcLoPEAN EYE.
1t Exists Today In R~udimentary Form
In Mans Brain.

The Greeks were. unwittingly, very
neal an anatomical truth when they
ascribed to certain monsters called cy-
clops only one eye apiece, which was
placed in the center Of their foreheads.
The cyclopean eye exists today in
the brains of men in a rudimentary
form, for in the pineal gland We find
the last vestiges Of that which was
once a third eye and which looked out
into the world, if not from the center
Of the forehead, at least from very
near that point. There is alive today d
little creature which would put to
shame the n eyed arrogance and
pride Of Polyphemus and Argos and
Brontes and Steropes and all the rest
of the single eyed gentry who, in the
days Of myths and myth makers, in
habited the "fair Sicilian isle"
The animal in question is a small
lizard called Calotis. Its well develop
ed third eye is situated in the top of
its head and can be easily seen
through the modified and transparent
scale which serves it as a cornea.
Many other lacertilians have this third
eye, though it is not so highly organ
lied as it is in the species just men
toned.
A tree lizard which is to be found in
the mountains Of east Tennessee and
Kentucky has its third eye well de-
veloped. This little animal is called
the singing Scorpion by the noun
t~aineers. On dissection the third eye
will be found lying beneath the skin.
1t has a lens, retina and optic nerve

SLIP OF HAND COSTS
EDITOR MUSTACHE ne
REFUSED TO SHAVE.

st. Louis Times: For twenty-five
years OF married life James w. Kirk,
editor OF The East St. Louis Journal
has been urged by Mrs. Kirk to shave
his mustache. but 1t remained for a
slip of the hand to accomplish what
the persuasion OF his wife could not
do.
A few weeks ago Mrs. Kirk thought
she had converted her husband to
eventually have the mustache cut off.
Through all the years Of married life
Kirk was as well known by his mus
tach as through any other means.
Thursday morning he thought he
would remove a part OF 1t by cropping
it close. But the shears slipped and
cropped one side close to the skin. Be-
cause Of this. Kirk had to shave.
When he walked down stairs. he was
not recognized. his wife at first think
ing him an Intruder. Finally, when
she recognized her husband. minus his
mustache. there was jollification IN
the Kirk family. Kirk has taken the
pledge that he will never go back to
the hirsute.

QUICK time FOR
SILK SHIPMENT
MADE OVER THE NORTHERN PA.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
sYLVANlA LINES.

st. Paul, July 25.--All previous rec
ords for quick service on the trans
portation Of silk from Yokohoma to
New York city, were broken last week
by a special shipment handled by the
Blue Funnel line Of steamers, Yoko-
homa to Tacoma, Northern Pacific Ta-
coma to st. Paul, Burlington route st.
Paul to Chicago, and Pennsylvania
lines Chicago to New York. A rec
ord Of seventeen and one-half days
was established from Yokohoma TO
Gotham, lowering the previous record
Of eighteen and one-half days, (also
held by the Northern Pacifc).
Similar recent shipments were
handled by m. p. lines in twenty and
twenty three days respectively, but the
Northern Pacific Burlington Pennsyl-
vania lines have thus far been the only
combination Of lines which have made
the schedule less than twenty days.
These shipments have a value OF
$3.50. 100000 per car. and the Oriental
silk trade is eagerly sought after by
thu transcontinental lines.
