WAS AN IMPORTED EXOTIC
John Endlcott Credited With introduce
ton of WeiI-Known White
Weed or Daisy.

Tradition has it that from the early
garden of Gov. John Endicott in Sal
EN-, Mass. came what is now perhaps
the commonest field flower in the
United States. Few persons, writes
Grace Tabor in "Old-Fashioned Gar
dening," know that the pestiferous
white-weed. the jubilant, smiling
daisy, is an imported exotic.
From this old dooryard garden it
has danced to the music of the east
wind straight across the land; up and
down the meadows, through the long
grass and the short grass, along ev-
cry highway and every byway. Wher-
ever man has gone it has followed
gaily; often it has driven him COM
pletely out of the fields he has made.
That Endicott valued the daisy
enough to bring 1t with him to the
new England from the old marks him
as a man of taste, for this flower had
In ancient days found its way into
the trimmest gardens the green
swards and arbors were powdered
with daisies," and Chaucer wrote of
1t in superlatives. 1t is not native to
England, either, however, but came
from the continent, or perhaps by way
of the continent from an original
home still farther east, In northern

shackIeton,a ExpedltIon.

Sir Ernest Shackleton's proposed
journey across the antarctic continent
this year involves 100 miles of trav-
el-as far as from New York city to
Dallas, Tex. Shackleton himself has
described his projected crossing as
"a longer journey than to the pole and
back and infinitely more difficult. be-
cause we shall always be advancing
over new ground. with no depots to
draw upon" 1t is possible, however,
that the party will not have to depend
entirely upon its own resources dur
ing the latter part of the journey, as
it Is planned to have an auxiliary ex-
petition land on the coast of Ross
sea and sledge southwark along a
previously arranged meridian as far
as latitude SO, If possible, to meet the
explorers coming from the pole. The
expedition will have two ships, driven
by oil fuel, for the main and auxiliary
parties respectively The sledges,
which will perhaps be constructed OF
steel tubing, will be drawn by dogs,
except two, which will be driven by
aeroplane propellers.

Food End the wlId alrds.

The Audubon society has issued an
appeal to the people of suburban and
rural communities in Ohio to feed the
wild birds when sleet and snow cover
the ground and trees this winter. This
request deserves favorable considera-
ton from all the people of Ohio who
live in the open country. In the SUI
burbs Of the big cities wild birds can
get along even in the most severe
weather. Out In the open country,
however, another story is apt to be
told. There snow and ice have things
their own way; cold spell, following
a thaw, is apt to make the whole
country one great glare of ice and to
put an effectual lock on the food store
houses of the wild birds. ALI winters
are more or less hard on the wild
birds. 1t is in periods of deep snow
particularly when there is a crust on
it-that they are in the greatest dan
ger of starvation. At such times men
and women ought to be glad to come
to the rescue with food both for
humanitarian reasons and because the
wild birds are a great asset to any
community, with their songs and their
very valuable services in getting rid
of insects that prey on plant life

Would Penetrate the Earth.

One of the most ingenious projects
for Harvesting the forces of nature is
that conceived by Sir William Ram
say, and, despite its daring Aature, it
has been well received in high sci
entific circles.
His plan is to take the heat of the
earth's interior by means of huge bore
holes. These shafts would be sunk
deep into the earth so that they pene-
trated into large coal seams. By
means of electricity this coal would
be fired until 1t burned like some
wonderful Internal furnace. BY means
of pipes the gas given off by this
burning coal would be conveyed to
the surface and in various ways util-
lied for power purposes.
The advantage of this scheme is
that power could be derived from coal
as 1t lay in its natural element, and
the cost NJ mining it and bringing 1t
up to the surface would be avoided.

HARD TO RESIST THIS WooER
Young Man Wanted to Kiss Sweet
heart and Certainly Know How
to Go About II.

He was one of the bold. importunate
kind. He thought he knew what was
his due, but he was uncertain whether
he would get it for the asking, al
though satisfied that he stood reason
ably well in her estimation.
He took her hand, and she did not
draw it away. That was good indi-
cation.
"One kiss" he whispered.
"Sir!" she cried.
The next moment she had been
kissed.
How dare you!" she cried.
why, thought you said"
81 said, sir, and said it very dis
tinctly." she interrupted.
"Oh." he returned, crestfallen.
THAT was all of it, was 1t. l thought
it was only the first syllable"
THE first syllable?" she repeated.
Yes. l thought you were about to
say Certainly and with such rap
ture in anticipation I naturally could
not wait for the whole word"
OF course in the face of such an In
genious and complimentary plea as
that she could do nothing but forgive
him.
But don't make that mistake
again." she warned him.
To avoid the possibility of it," he
suggested, don't say that to me on
any similar occasion in the future"
What shall l say?" she asked.
Say, Yes, he advised.
"Yes?" she repeated inquiringly, as
If his effrontery were too great for
her comprehension.
Thereupon he kissed her again.
You said yes" he explained as
she broke from him Indignantly.
Truly there was something anus
ing in his clever way of circumvent-
ing her.
With such man as you," she said.
What is a poor girl to. do?"
IF that's a conundrum," he re-
turned, Il can give you the answer"

Lean Men.

A prominent Methodist bishop is
quoted as having warned the people of
a certain congregation against put
ting their trust in lean men. The lean
man, he says, takes himself too seri-
ously, is inclined to be hypercritical
and to regard himself self-appointed
inspector of the universe"
The good bishop draws conclusions
too sweepingly. There are lean men
and lean men, some lean, perhaps,
through meanness, others through her
edity or chronic illness. We protest
against the generalization that be-
cause a mans waistline is scant his
character Is warped. The old dictum
that nobody loves fat man" should
not be reversed SO abruptly, as If there
was nothing to be said on the other
side
Girth, like bald head, Is but poor
index of what is in the heart. One
greatly fears that the bishop Is ro-
tund gentleman who falls into the
quite natural error of believing that
some necessary relationship exists be-
tween his own physical proportions
and his own undoubted qualities of
grace. 1t has always been hard for
a crosseyed man to understand that
any beauty or virtue attached to eyes
that were straight.

CLEANED THE DOCS BUGGY
Which Was Not What Boys Intended
to Do, but That Was the End
of the Adventure.

Il remember" said Uncle Josh. who
had just finished hearty dinner and
was In the humor for telling a yarn,
Il remember one balmy day in July
when the other boys and decided to
steal old Doc Hoffum's horse and
buggy and drive to the river to go
swimming. Doc was visiting at our
house that day, and it looked easy to
us to drive two miles over to the
river and get cooled off and then
bring the horse and buggy back before
the old man missed them
There were a good many of US
and we were not dressed very fine.
Slim, for example, was attired in
long linen buster that Topped out be-
hind. The springs allowed us to bump
pretty hard, there being so many pas
sengers, but we got to the river safe
ly
I'VE had bully swim, but Slick
said he thought we ought to wash the
buggy while we were there The way
to do it, he said was to run the buggy
into the river.
I'VE unhitched the horse and pro-
ceeded to back the buggy into the
water. But the buggy got away from
US, and away it went, much further
than we expected We couldn't hold
it and SO 1t disappeared entirely. A
couple of bubbles came up and that
was ALL
While we were diving to locate the
buggy the horse got away, and we all
took after him. We chased him
around clump of trees, half of us
on one side and half on the other to
head him off. Both parties rounded
the clump of trees at the same time
and ran plump into a camp meeting,
mostly women
I'VE let the horse go then and by
that time we had forgotten where we
left the buggy"
1 suppose some one stole all your
clothes while you were gone" sug-
gested the man from Topeka.
No." said Uncle Josh. I'VE found
our clothes, and from their position
on the bank we figured out where the
buggy ought to be. One of the camp
meeting people brought the horse
back and we got rope from him and
dived around until we got the rope
tied to the buggy. Then we got it
out on the bank That is the only
time Doc Hoffum's buggy was ever
clean!"
Didn't 1t hurt the buggy?" asked
the man from Topeka.
Didn't harm thing but the
squeak. The bath utterly destroyed
that. Old Doc Hoffum often wonder
ed what had become of the squeak,
for he missed it badly The horse
missed 1t, too. 1t was good, soothing
sound that the two Of them were &C.
customed to doze by as they logged
over the road"
