Fruits Ripened by Drug vapors.

Horticulturists have for some time
been experimenting on the effects to
be obtained by subjecting plants to
the vapor of ether, chloroform and
other volatile substances. They have
found that the growth of many fruits
and flowers can be forced by this
method and have obtained particularly
striking results with lilacs, which they
have thus been able readily to obtain
in winter. An American agriculturist
has experimental more particularly in
the effect of these and other SUBJ
stances on the ripening of fruit. His
observations have shown that in the
majority of cases the more volatile
the substance to which the plant is
treated the more rapid is the ripening
In forcing the ripening of dates, fol
instance, he found that the best re
suits were obtained when he employed
acetic, proprionic, Tactic or salicylic
acid. Heat powerfully stimulates the
ripening process and one of the pecul
iarities of fruits thus forced to ma
turity is that they are generally found
to keep better than those which have
ripened naturally.

Red Tame in Action.

An American, in visiting the London
postoff1ce, observed that the newspa-
per box had large mouth, and, with
the curiosity Of the average American
tourist, he stood gazing into it. Sud-
denly a bale Of newspapers struck
him and he fell into the box.
His companions hurried to the coun-
tiers to rescue him, but owing to the
red tape of the English postofflce the
clerks disregarded their appeals. The
American was in the mail box and
would have to be treated as a mail
matter. They therefore stamped him
and threw him into a compartment
containing provincial newspapers.
The unfortunate mans friends there
upon went to the chief, who listened
phlegmatically to their story, then
asked If their friend was addressed.
On being informed that he was not,
the chief said:
"The matter is simple. The man will
remain for six months in the bureau.
At the end of that time, If no one ap-
plies for him, he will be burnt as a
dead letter."

PASSENGERS "Lucky Escape

A traveller in one Of the London
tubes attempted to board train after
1t had started and the gates were
closed. He got his feet under the gate
and hung on until the train ran into
the tunnel. Here he was knocked of,
and but for the prompt action of the
engineer he would have had both legs
cut off, He wrote letter of complaint
to the company, whereupon they had
him summoned" for breaking one Of
its regulations, and the court fined
him $3.50 and costs, which amounted
to $40. The item describing the case
in the London Times was labeled "A
Lucky Escape" Evidently from a
heavier fine.-New York Press.

OId-Time Market DAYS.

"Market-day," for ages an institu-
ton in England, still exists in certain
localities, and may still be studied
with interest by the tourist who visits
Halifax, Nova Scotia, or Charlotte
tower, Prince Edward Island, where
large enclosures and roomy market
houses are maintained for the benefit
Of the country people, and such citi-
Zens as have established a regular
market business. Everything from
live stock to a bouquet of flowers may
be brought here for sale, the owner
being allotted a suitable place and
charged small fee for his accommo.
dation, and while most of the market
people are far from being especially
rustic in their dress or speech, the
variety, and sometimes the peculiar.
ity of their offerings still suggest the
important part which the English
market and it's legal control played
in the local and business life of three
centuries ago.-"Nobility Of the
Trades-The Farmer" Charles Win

Orioin of ENGLISH ROYAL Academy.

The yearly "show" of works by liv.
ing artists which Is held at the Eng.
lish Royal academy from the first
Monday in May to the first Monday
in August owes its existence to a
meeting of painters which was held at
the Turks Head, Soho, on November
IL, 1859. The knights of the brush
and palette resolved that "once year.
on day in the second week in April,
at a place that should be appointed
by a committee for carrying the de-
sign into execution, to be chosen an
nually, every painter, sculptor, en-
graver, chaser, seal-cutter, and med.
alist may exhibit their several per-
formances." 1t was also resolved that
"the sum of one shilling be taken
daily of each person who may come
to visit the said performances"-

DREAD DEATH COMING
FEAR DEEPLY IMPLANTED IN THE
HEARTS OF ALL.
Some More Effected by Loss of Honor.
Visit to a Dentist, or Bank
ruptcy, but Few Deliber-
ateIy End Ii All.

Probably the first thought of every
reasonable man in reading the dreary
details of the disaster TO the Titanic
was: What would / have done in the
same circumstances? Probably his
second bore the hope in all humility
that If such circumstances should arise
for him he would behave without too
much of the awkwardness of panic.
Only fool would haphazard a predic-
ton Of his conduct in the face of
peril SO unexpected and attended by
the terrors of midnight and the sea.
1t is no discredit to the human race to
say that cowardice is a gift from the
devil which has been impartially dis
tributed among mankind.
Every man who thinks at all is
afraid of death. He may be more afraid
of something else, or loss of honor,
health or money, or going to a dentist,
or. like the man in Pickwick, of life
without buttered mullins, but he
chooses death only as a bad alterna-
tive for worse. If he is not afraid of
one thing you may be sure he is afraid
of another.
A man will go up to the clouds in a
balloon who wouldn't go down into
twenty feet of water in submarine.
A steeplejack may be afraid of dogs
| and lion tanner of riding in an eleva
| tor. We know a man who has made a
great reputation for GOODNESS under fire
in BATTLE who gibbers with fear when.
ever he has the stomach ache. One
man fears fire, another burglars, an
other railway trains, another measles
Conduct in an emergency depends
on many things besides those abstract
| qualities known as "cowardice" and
courage" A man is apt to act calmly
when his surroundings, at the time the
peril presents itself, are customary
/ and familiar, when his nerves happier
to be sound, or when he has time t.
mediate on his action and weigh care
| fully it's consequences.
Again a man may be persuaded t.
shame or glory, as the case may be, BY
the example of his neighbor One per
son afflicted by binding fear may turf
hundren men into panic stricken
! mob or he may convert them into {
throng of heroes through their yer.
horror of his conduct. And one maj
who has established his moral equilib
rum quickly can instantly convey for
titude to the others. Courage AM
cowardice both like company.-F. F
Dunno in the American Magazine.

PRECIOUS RELICS IN DANGER
Steps Being Taken by the Pope 70
Insure the Safety of Documents
in the Vatican.

Father Ehrle, the wellknown his
vatican library since 1895, is shortly
to retire from his important post, and
Monsignore Ratti, director of the Am
brosian library, of Milan, has been Sc
Consequently destructive Bird, Held
lected by the pope to succeed him.
The manuscripts contained In the
vatican library number over forty
thousand and surpass not only in num-
Der but also in value and interest those
of all other Libraries in the world
combined because they have been ac-
cumulated since practically the begin
ming of the Christian era. 1t will be
necessary for Father Ehrle to remain
in charge for at least another couple
of years in order that he may hand
over to his successor these manuscript
treasures, which must be identified
one by one.
The pope, on the suggestion of the
retiring librarian, has availed himself
of this detailed examination of manu-
scripts, which takes place whenever a
new project is appointed, to reform the
methods heretofore adopted for their
preservation. The manuscripts are in

doors of which are richly decorated,
according to the plan In use for CEN

art galleries and libraries and thus

While every precaution is taken for
the preservation of the manuscripts
from moths and dampness this old sys-
tenn of keeping them has it's great
drawbacks in case Of fire. as the cup

Pantheon and Parthenon.

The Parthenon, or what is left of
it, stands upon the Acropolis of
Athens. This most famous building
on earth was erected under the ad-
ministration of Pericles about B. c.
442. It's present ruinous condition
was caused by the explosion of a
bomb during the war between the
venetians and Turks in 1857. The
Pantheon, at Rome, was built by
Agrippa in B. C. 81, and, unlike the
more beautiful temple at Athens, is
still in a fair state of preservation
The Pantheon is, of course, well
worth seeing, both for its own sake
and on account of its historic inter
est; but it does not hold the fame
belonging to the Incompatible build
ing on the Athenian Acropolis.
