The Aristocracy of Porcelain

The chances are that hidden in the gar ret of some New England farm house, dating from Colonial or Revolutionary times. there may still be found many specimens of old Coalport-Swansea or Nantgarrow ware.
 These wares are eagerly sought by dealers and collectors of early English porcelains. At Coalport or Colebrook Dale q certain John Rose manufactured porcelain as early as 175o. In 1799 the Caughley works were built and swhite wares made a speciality. In 1920 the Swansea and Nantgarrow factories were incorporated with Coalport.
 Billingsley, a celebrated painter of roses, was employed and worked at Coal port till his death in 1928 About 1921 was introduced q ground of maroon color. which was used sometimes in bands around cups and saucers. Replicas of Dresden, Chelsea, Sevres and other fac

great ability. He abounds in quaint an- eedotes and allegorical instances. A characteristic personal anecdote of the author is the following:
 "Chuang Tzu was fishing in the Pu when the Prince of Gnu sent two high officials to ask him to take charge of the administration of the Gnu state.
 "Chuang Tzu went on fishing, and, without turning his head, said: T have heard that in Gnu there is a sacred tor toise which has been dead some 5000 years, and that the prince keeps this tor toise carefully inclosed in chest on the altar of his ancestral temple. Now would this tortoise rather be dead and have It's remains venerated, or be alive and wagging its tail in the mud?
 '' It would rather be alive replied the two officials. and wagglng it's tail in the mud

Plants That Shoot Arrows.

The arrows are crystal needles of
oxalate Of lime They are of microscop-
ic dimensions. and they are shot from
minute capsule shaped bodies found
in the tissues of such plants as the
Indian turnip and the Polynesian taro.
An extraordinary spectacle may be
viewed in the field of the microscope
when the bonds" contained in a drop
of taro pulp begin to discharge their
arrows. Sometimes only one or two
needles and sometimes groups of four
to ten We're discharged at once. the
bomb recoiling as the projectiles left
it. 1t has been suggested that the
intense burning and pricking sensa-
tons experienced in chewing such
plants as those just mentioned are due
TO the release and discharge of these
crystal arrows when the plant tissues
are crushed in the mouth.-Harper' S
Weekly.

TAFT CLAIMS VICTORY.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. April s.-With
sthe Kentucky Republican State con-
vention set for April 10. both the
j Roosevelt and Taft supporters were
busy today forecasting victory and
claiming the national delegates to be
selected by that body.
A recapitulation of the fight between
the two Republican factions, however,
seems to favor the Taft element. Not
only is the Republican machine in
Kentucky apparently we'll in hand, but,
under the leadership of Senator Fraw-
ley, it has worsted the Roosevelt fol
lowers in all the preliminary meetings.
Despite this fact, however, the Col
oners cohorts were positive today that
they had sufficiently strengthened
their organization 10 force for the con-
vention to give at least a fair division
of the National delegates.

Photooraphs For Lawsuits.

One call for services a professional
photographer disiikes above all others
and that is to get an order for a pic

most in demand for this purpose are
the busiest ones. those who make a
speciality Of taking pictures of news
events for the papers and magazines.
When any one wants photogrs phic evil
dence be is likely TO remember the
name of some firm of professionals
that he has seen often in print and
asks them to do the job.
We wouldn't mind that sort of
work so much il taking the picture

of these picture men. I'VE get S. or

FIGHTING FISH.
In the Rage Of Battle They Turn From
Dull to Brilliant Colors.

In the Rage Of Battle They Turn From
Dull to Brilliant Colors.
In the gardens of Singapore it is the
custom to stock the ponds with all
manner of queer fishes. many OF them
of the fighting variety SO dear to the
heart of the orientals. This species OF
fish is so combative that it is only nee
essary to place two of them near each
other. like fighting cocks. and perhaps
to irritate them a little to bring on a
lively conflict.
They at once charge each other with
fms erect. at the same time changing
color in their excitement from the dull
est of gray green's to brilliant reds and
blues Indeed. confinement in close
quarters is not needed to arouse their
combative propensities.
Place two glass jars close together
with one of these fighting fish in each
and they will at once swim round and
endeavor to charge each other through
the interposed glass
Even n single fish seeing himself re
flected in a mirror will dart Mt his
own image and. irritated all the more
by his failure to reach his supposed
enemy, will assume the most brilliant
hues. Seeing his reflected antagonist
do the same. he will redouble his eff
forts to reach him.-Exchange.

How the Empress Got Out Of Franco
After Sedan.

After Sedan.
AS soon as the hot headed citizens of
Paris learned in September. 1870, that
their emperor, Napoleon III. had sur
rendered to the Prussians at Sedan
these Parisians rose in a riotous mob
and made posthaste for the Tuileries.
They were armed and after royal
blood and plumber. The empress had
to fee for her life. Assisted by the
Austrian and Italian ministers, she
made a hurried fight from the palace,
but found the mob ahead of her in
the garden; back again and then out
by a secret way into a side street,
where they entered a carriage. A
street gamin recognized the empress
here, but the shouting of the mob was
so great that the boys cry of warning
was not needed.
Once the carriage was stopped by a
mob. but the party alighted and man.

near the residence of DR.. Evans. the
American dentist, they took refuge
there. and the doctor took upon him
self the responsibility of Empress Eu-
genies safety. The empress put on a
dress belonging to Mrs. Evans and,
with Mime Breton, her friend, was
driven by DR.. Evans to the suburbs.
DR.. Evans explained that the women
were patient and her attendant
whom he was taking to sanitarium.
Two days later the fugitives reached a
coast town. whence they escaped to
England.

There wasn't time for him to jump
