PaIterlns With the Eternal Ssrit'sas

little Boston nephew on his knee.

Then he still exists, Uncle Peter"
interrupted the little Boston boy.
NO sentient, reasoning being within

seek expression in another form. An
initiation is abhorrent to the aestheti,

composed are imperishable. In like
manner the intangible essence that

A Heat Phenomenon.

A workman in the observatory at
Toulouse has invited attention to a
singular phenomenon. A bar of iron
is taken by one end and the other END
is plunged into fire, heating it high
~, but not so much that the hand can
not retain its hold. The heated end Is
then plunged into a pail Of cold water.
Immediately the other end becomes SO
bot that it is impossible to hold 1t.
Yhis phenomenon, familiar to work
men, is ascribed by them to some re-
pellent action they suppose the sud
Gen cold exerts upon the heat contain
ed In the iron, which is thus driven to
the opposite extremity.

Spruce Trees Nursed by Pines.

\ singular fact with regard to the re-
lations Of different species Of trees has
been brought out by the reforestatlon
of the peninsula of Jutland, Denmark.
It was observed that when planted
alone spruce trees did not prosper,
but that If a spruce was planted near
a mountain pine it grew up vigorously.
Further experiment has shown that Il
the pines are placed near the spruces
at the beginning and after being al
lowed to grow together with them for
a few years are cut down the benefit
to the spruce continues. The pnenom-
enon is not understood, says Protes-
sor J. ". Harshberger, but it is sup
posed that the roots Of the mountain
pine are inhabn ed by some mycorhlza
which produces the nitrogen needed Dy
the trees and that this organism IS
transferred to the roots Of the sur
rounding spruce. Once the infection
has taken place the presence OF the
pine is no longer necessary.

Uncle Sans Eagle.

The eagle is the king of birds, the
lord Of the sky, the brave nooiest
and most independent Of the feathered
tribe, and probably that is the reason
why be was adopted as our national
bird. His image holds its place upon
our national coat Of arms by sheer
merit and not merely from empty
sentiment. The noble bird, loving
liberty, scorning confinement at home
and at his best only when invested
with the wide freedom of the glorious
heavens, is the fit emblem of the
spirit Of '7G'' and Of the government
that that spirit won and established
on the earth Other peoples entertain
the same high opinion Of the eagle,
since from the time Of the institution
Of the Roman standard straight down
to the present day be has appeared as
a conspicuous figure il tie hera!dry OF
the nations.-New York American.

Too Pretty a Lake For That.

China gave me many 4 shock" said
the returned traveller. but the one that
nearly carried me off was administered
in the Fuchau district. Out IN the
country I came across beautiful little
lake drained by beautiful little river.
The scenery was marred somewhat,
however, by signs stuck up every few
yards at the edge Of the lake. Won
dered what their import was, and On
one Of my trips to the lake l took a
missionary friend along to translate.
"'Oh, that said he. There are not
many of them left in this district. That
is a warning that girls must not be
drowned in this lake
Somehow I could never admire my
beautiful lake so much after that, al
though maybe I ought to have admired
It more" New York Press.

W. (, FELTSFOR \
 COUNTY JUDGE

The News takes pleasure in calling attention to the announce ment of W, c. Felts who today makes formal declaration of his intention of becoming a candi- date for the Democratic nOmina- tion for the office of county and probate judge.
 Mr. Felts has been treasurer of Nevada county for the past four years which office he has discharged with credit to him. self and to the good of the citi- zens. He was strongly pressed to make the race for the office of treasurer for a third term, but owing to the fact that he had already made the statement that he would not be candidate he declined to enter the contest.
 Mr. Felts is resident of Red land township and has always been identified with the farming interests. He has been success. ful in a business way which stamps him as man capable of directing the affairs of the coun. ty. Mr. FeltS is well known allf over the county as a citizen o the highest standing and his standing and candidacy de- serves the thoughtful considera. tion of all voters.
 Mr. Felts will endeavor to see allvoters at the proper time in the interest of his candidacy and the News bespeaks for him careful consideration Of his claims.

OBJECTED TO "C0W MUSIC"
Swarming Bees Showed Good Taste and an Appreciation of What
 Is Correct.

Cow music was never intended for bees, and Capt. George Sinclair of the North Side police station and Patrolman J. A. Larson, both expert bee trainers, proved it beyond dis pute the other day when a hive of bees swarmed from hive on the sta- tion roof.
 Music or any noise that will dis tract the attention of the queen bee is supposed to be the best agent for settling a swarm of bees. Captain Sinclair was piper in a company of Queen Victoria's Highlanders, and so when Larson told him the bees were swarming he grasped his bagpipes and went to the station yard.
 The old ballad "When the Rye Come flame" was the air the captain selected. AS the people rushed from their houses to hear the pipes the bees settled as predicted by the cap tain, but they mistook the limb of the law for the limb of box elder the captain had eyed during the per formance and settled on Larson. The bees clinched their hold and the stingers didn't stop at mere gar ments.
 A change in the program failed to relieve the situation for Larson. By shaking himself vigorously, imitat- ing as nearly as possible the motion of tree branch when shaken by a beekeeper, Larson induced the bees to go into the hive.
 Ammonia, hartshorn and other antidotes for bee sting decorate the mantel shelf in the Larson home to- day.-Minneapolis Journal.
