Wentworth on Real Estate.

There is an interesting story of Wordsworth. who went to call on Miss Harriet Martineau at Ambleside, In the house which she had built and laid out. writes A. C. Benson in the Cen tury Magazine. There was a gathering of neighbors present, and Wordsworth stood for long time at the window contemplating the beautiful landscape outside. Then he turned to the party and said:
 Miss Martineau. I congratulate you on your beautiful little domain. The views are wonderful, and 1t will turn out to be the wisest thing you ever did in your life"
 He paused for moment, and the guests expected some comment on the uplifting effects of communion with nature, but Wordsworth. with @ inc gesture. continued:

WENT DEEPLY INTO DETAILS
Identification That Undoubtedly Was Complete, but Could by No Means
 Be Called Complimentary.

Stephen Haegen, manager of . Harlem bank. at a dinner recently told the following anecdote: Many years ago, while spending vacation in a city in the upper part of the state, he visited some friends in bank. While there he saw a severe-looking woman move up to the teller's window and request that small check be cashed. She asked the man in the cage to call up the person from whom she had received the check and he would iden- tify her.
 The teller called up the man and asked him to describe the woman. He did so in the following manner: "She looked like the crankiest person in the world. She was dressed in the fashion of about five years ago. l think she is an old cat. She wore a blue straw hat, but then 1t may be green, and I think she paints. She wore two fake diamond rings. Coed by, old man."

Brinkley Hotel Burns.

Brinkley, March 3.-Fire of unknown origin which, for a time, threatened the entire busi- ness section of Brinkley early to- night, destroyed the Brinkley House and damaged the building occupied by the Bank of Brink ley, causing a loss of nearly $14,- 900, partially covered by insur- ance. Two cripples at the Brink ley House were carried to safety just in time. Only the excellent work of the volunteer Fire De- partment confined the loss to these two buildings.
 The Brinkley House, owned by Gus Rusher, a two-story frame building was valued at about $7,500, with perhaps $4H 900 insurance. The furniture was valued at about $3,000, with about $2,5O0 insurance. The bank building was damaged to the extent of about $2,000, cov- cred by insurance. The offices of Dr. E. D. Mcknight and Dr. M. R. Stimson were badly dam- aged by fire and water, loss ap- proximately $1,000, covered by insurance. G. Otis Bogle, attor- ney, estimates his loss at about $2OO from damage in removing his property. About $1,O0O, it is said, will cover the loss on the other offices in the building.
 The fire started in the Brink ley House about 6::30 and the building was practically ruined in about 40 minutes. The bank building was separated from the hotel only by an alley. Most of the damage was in the rear of this building. The Brinkley House is near the railroad tracks and the flames were SC fierce that the 6:30 passenger train was unable to pass for some time.

MERELY A POPULAR BELIEF
Scholars Question Whether the Apple Was the "Forbidden Fruit" in the
 Garden of Eden.

Why and how 1t has happened that the apple has been spoken of as the fruit that was forbidden in the Gar den of Eden is one of the great pug zles of Biblical scholars. The fact Is that in Genesis 3, where the incident of the eating of this fruit of the "Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil' is mentioned, no name whatever is given to the fruit All that is said is: And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat" (verse 6).
 In fact, scholars doubt very serious ly whether it was the apple at all. They suggest that all evidence points to it having been the quince, fragrance of which was held in the highest es- teem by the Orientals. Another point in favor of the quince is that 1t Is the fruit which was sacred to Venus, the goddess of live. and in great many of the ancient writings the Quince Is very frequently mentioned in this man ner. In Babylonia 1shtar took the place of Venus in the Roman mythol- ogy, and 1t should be remembered that the story of the creation origina' ted with the Babylonians. All ev1' dence seems to point away from the apple having been the Forbidden Fruit" and towards the quince as hay ing been that fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil"

FAST TRIP THROUGH BRITAIN

How to do" the British Isles In q week Is the latest scheme for hustlers. A dash around London, a flying de- scent on one or two cathedral cities, race through Scotland and a glance at Killarney-this what is open to those who want to see the country in hurry.

On Thursday he goes to Wind sor and Hampton Court and on his return to London has time to go to a music hall. On Wednesday he leaves London for Peterborough. sees the cathedral and gets to York at three o'clock.

 After dinner the hustler takes the night train out of Glasgow by way of Androssan to Belfast, reaches Dublin in the afternoon and takes the night train to Killarney.

To improve yourself, the first essen tial is to prevent all waste of energy by living in boise. The second essen- tial is to use your imagination in pic turing those things that you want to accomplish now. And the most prac- tical use that can be made of the im- agination Is to picture your talents and faculties larger, greater and more perfect. To imagine in mind larger and more perfect talent is to give the creative forces in mind better mod el; ana as these forces always create after he fashion of the latest model, they will consequently create the lar. ger ar the more perfect talent.-Lar- son.

PEARLS FIND READY MARKET
Those From the Mississippi Only Slightly Second in Demand to
 Deep Water Products.

Arkansas Is the greatest pearl pro- ducing state in the Union, and hun- dreds of men engage in the pearl hunt. It is said that the fresh water pearl of Arkansas of the highest class cannot be distinguished from the f1n- est deep sea jewel. Throughout the south generally thousands of people follow the pearl fishing industry and make comfortable living at 1t. Up to few years ago the jewel wealth contained in the river beds of the Mississippi valley was completely hid den. It was not supposed that the fresh water mussel was a pearl bear er or that 1t had any value except for fish bait.
 The fresh water mussel Is sought now not only for the precious stone 1t may have hidden in it's shell, but for the shell itself, which is manufac- tured into stick pins, cuff links, and buttons of every description. The shell fisheries have for years extend ed far up the Mississippi river. A re- cent writer on the subject puts fresh water pearls into four classifcations true pearls. baroques, slugs, and chicken feed.
 The first, or true, pearl .ire of a definite shape, and regular form, round, oval, or pear shaped. These command the highest prices. Baroques are pearls of irregular form. Slugs are low grade baroques. The smaller size, the kind used in inexpensive though genuine and neat jewelry, go by the professional name of chicken feed.
