LETTUCE WHILE YOU WAIT
Dinner Guests May See II Grow on
the Table for Their
Salad.

When at dinner in Rome tourist
was served with Strawberries, still
growing on the parent vine, in a com.
mon earthen pot which was concealed
by a sash of wide ribbon, she thought
this was the last word with regard to
serving food at the dinner table. II
remains, however, for a New York
florist to work what seems like mir
acle. He claims to be able to grow
lettuce while you wait-crisp lettuce
for dinner to eat with your broiled
spring chicken.
When asked to reveal his secret he
said: Il take a handful OF lettuce
seeds that have been soaked over
night in alcohol and plant them in a
box containing three inches OF loan
and quicklime. | water this well. and
In ten minutes the seeds burst. In
twenty minutes two tiny leaves push
through the earth. The leaves grow
and multiply. In an hour they are as
big as dollars. Then you may pluck
and eat them They are delicious-a
fairy salad Sometimes when | give
a dinner party l have one Of these lit
tie prepared lettuce beds In the center
of the table. The guests see the let
tuce grow, and when the time comes
for the salad course there is their
salad blooming before them all ready
for them to pluck"
Considering what marvels in the
way of cooking are accomplished with
the chating dish and denatured alcohol
stoves, and scientific marvels like this,
we may reasonably expect to see the
lamb driven in alive, slaughtered, and
cooked before our very eyes.

DID you ever ask yourself why you
shake hands with a person whom you
know Here is a reason given by the
New York Sun. In the old days, when
every man who made any pretentions to
being a gentleman carried a sword, it was
custom for men when they met, to show
that they had no intentions of treschery,
to offer each other their weapon hands
that is, the hand that would be used to
draw the sword, and to withhold the hand
was usually the signal for fight. So
fixed did this habit become that long after
men ceased to wear swords they still
offered the weapon hand to a friend and
declined to offer it to an enemy. To this
day when you refuse to shake hands with
person it signifiea that you are at war.
Among savsges, who never carry swords,
the practice of shaking hands is unknown
and it affords amusement to see tbe white
men do il,

WE note that NJ. l. McCreight, of Du-
Bois, au excellent man in all respects by
the way, as we hear, is being lavishly
doomed for nomination for Congress-st-
large at the Republican State convention.
But what has that to do with our early
suggestion that Hon. W. o. Smith OF
Punxsutawney be made one of the nomi-
neesH Living within stones throw OF
one another both could not reasonably be
nominated, and we insist that, on the
score of sll-around fitness for the place,
this big Commonwealth holds no better
material than Mr.. Smith, and as we view
1t the good material is what the people
want

TATTERED BATTLE FLAGS
GREETED BY HOUSE
Members Cheer as They Vote to Pre-.
serve Trophles-Perry's Naval
Flag Shown.

Washington-Not in a long time
has such genuine patriotic enthusiasm
been seen in the House of Represen-
tatives as when the bill appropriate
Ing $4,000 for the repair, proserva-
tion and exhibition of the 1876 ttorhy
flags which record the history of the
American navy from 1912 to the pres
ent time was under discussion.
The bill was passed unanimously,
while members, both Democratic and
Republican, cheered and banged their
desks and openly wiped the tears from
their cheeks.
The first demonstration occurred
when great square ensign Of navy
blue with yellowed white letters strag-
Cling across Il was thrown over big
easel placed in the we'll in front Of the
Speakers desk.
This tattered ensign" said Repre-
sentative Bates Of Pennsylvania in
ringing tones, "is Commodore Perry's
battle flag, inscribed with the words
Don't give up the ship the last utter
ance Of Capt, Lawrence of the Ill star
red frigate Chesapeake. 1t was hoist
ed to the masthead of Perrys flagship
at the battle Of Lake Erie as the sig
nal for action. Don't you want it pre-
served?"
There was silence for a moment and
then every member of the House,
young and old, Republican and Demo
crat, jumped to his feet, making all
the noise possible 1t wasn't the sort
Of a demonstration, either, that is ac-
corded to a Representative who offers
a trick of oratory or turn OF speech.
Then while Mr.. Bates, who is a
member of the Naval Committee, re-
ferred briefly to historic naval bat
ties in which the United States was
victorious pages draped other historic
flags across an easel for the House to
see. Some of them were mere rags,
tattered, torn, moth eaten and discol-
ored Others, some not the Oldest
among them, were faded, but almost
whole A cheer from the House greet
81 the production Of each trophy.
The real feature was speech by
Representative Witherspoon of Miss
issippi, called uncle Sam" because Of
his resemblance to the popular con-
ception of that national figure. Mr.
Witherspoon, who is a member Of the
Naval Committee, said that originally
he had been opposed to the BILL think
ing the appropriation proposed was
extravagant
Uncle Sam Witherspoon isn't fam
boyant orator He does not yell and
he never gesticulates. He just stood
with his hands in his pockets and talk
ed, his chin whisker wagging, but the
House was husbed and silent and his
drawing voice could be heard in every
corner of the chamber. When he clos
ed there was a crash of applause that
shook the skylights, while the women
in the gallery used their handkerchief
openly and many man on the floor
found occasion to cough or look for
something way inside his desk.

Slipped Up on the sleuth.

A Cincinnati reporter, acting inde-
pendently of the men working for 9th.
er papers, resolved to have an ac.
count of the. proceedings Of a council
meeting to which no outsiders were to
be admitted. By colIusion with the
janitor he climbed to a spot that was
not without its dangers and was dusty
beyond description. There he took
out notebook for a shorthand report.
The meeting came to order and the
first thing the chairman did was to
move reconsideration and admit the
reporters. This was carried and they
all (minus one) filed in to take their
places in comfortable positions.

Elixir of Life for Steel.

For mankind, as yet, the elixir of
life remains undiscoyered but for
steel 1t has been found. The element
vanadium, when added in certain pre-
determined and small proportions,
gives to steel the combined properties
of increased tensile strength, higher
elastic limit and greater ductility
Strength, toughness, elasticity, united
with freedom from crystalization-
these are the life-giving properties
which vanadium imparts to steel, prop
critics which raise its endurance to
meet the burdens which are daily in
creasing upon it.
