Music of the Wheat.

Wheat has music of it's own: it is
different from what you hear in bar
ley field or oat patch. The ears are
heavier and the rustiing is more sonor-
GUS and more deeply musical than the
swishing of the pendulous oats or
bearded barley. There are often breezy
days just as the wheat is ripening when
you can linger and listen to the rus
Ting music: now and then it sounds
like the susurrus Of the sea. and you
are reminded of waves by seeing the
cloud shadows flying over the wheat
with a motion not altogether unlike
the rising and falling of the sea. Just
as painters have drawn frequent inspi-
ration from the wheat fields. no doubt
musicians have been inspired by their
sweet. subtle sounds. AS the breeze
passes over the field. how the wheat
rustles. how it sways and bends. al
most sometimes bowling to the ground.
but recovering itself easily in due
course.-London Globe.

keepiro In the Heat,

You speak incorrectly when you say
that your fur coat is warm. There is
no heat in the fur coat at all. but it
keeps you warm because it prevents
the heat of your body from passing off
into the cold air. The Bible says that
God ''giveth snow like WOOL" because
snow is a poor conductor of heat, just
like wool. and protects the seeds of
fruits and vegetables in the soil in win
ter just as wool protects your bodily
heat. A saucepan which has been used
will bring the water to boil more
quickly than new one because the
bottom being covered with SCOT it alb
serbs heat more quickly than highly
polished new surface. The cook pol
ishes the lids of kettles because. when
bright. they do not draw the heat and
in this way keep the contents warm
longer than if dull.-New York World.
