Common Sense In Trenches.

What would happen if the war were
left TO the men who are fightingi it, instead
of 10 the kings and diplomats, is indicated
in this story, told by an English officer:
The day before the big British attack
near Loos, in northern France, the British
soldiers in the first trench saw board
showed up by the Germans in the trench
opposite. II bore the inscription.
1.-The English Are Fools"
Nobody took the trouble even TO shoot
at ii. Soon the board was lowered, then
raised again with this addition
The French Are Fools"
The English soldiers ignored that too.
But they began 10 wake up when the
board was lowered again and hoisted with
the legend
1--WE Are Fools"
That drew loud and prolonged ap-
plause. The next time the board dis
appeared the British waited eagerly for
IFS temperance and burst into an uproar
OF applause when they read
"Why Not All Go Home ?"
For once, in one little segment of two
thousand miles Of trenches, common
sense reigned. The next day they ran
bayonets through each others nbs.

Something About Peaeoeks.

A very handsome bird is the peacock,
which originally came IRON the East In
dies, but which is now common in most
parts OF the world.
In the Bible We read that King Solomon
sent ships which came back every three
years, bringing gold. silver, ivory, apes
and peacoekS.
In ancient times the Romans were tond
of peacocks and would often cook them
and serve them al banquets.
The peacock loses IFS brilliant plumes
at the approach OF winter and renews
them again in the spring time. For this
reason the peacock has been used as a
symbol or emblem OF the resurrection,
and the figure OF peacock carved on a
stone was often used 10 mark the graves
OF Christians in the Roman cemeteries.
The peacock has one quality which IS
not TO its credit. II is very proud OF its
beautiful feathers, and by the way II
struts around il shows its vain spirit.
This is the reason we sometimes speak
OF persons as being vain as peacock.

Early Settlers OF the West.

Alta period not far from ten million
wears ago, in what is known as the Juras-
sic Age, there lived group OF gigantic
reptiles called DinoSauria. OF one family
OF them, the Stogosaundae, or plated
lizard. there is among the exhibits OF the
United States National Museum a typical
skeleton just as il was dug out OF a sand
stone rock in Fremont County, near Canon
City, in Colorado, in 1885. There IS also
in the museum very lifelike reprodue-
ton OF the reptile, done in papier- mache,
which the Boston Evening Transcript
describes as follows:
"ln life, thus peculiar reptile must have
presented a forbidding appearance. II
measured about nineteen feet IN length,
was over eleven ieet in height at the
hips, and was covered with very tough
and horny scale-like skin, studded here
and there with bony buttons or knobs OF
amor. Along its back were arranged
great sharp-edged plates, SET alternately,
and projecting upward like the teeth OF a
huge saw.
This odd aunor plate extended from
the small, wedge-Shaped reptllian head
all the way down the back and well down
the tapering lizard-like tail, which was
tipped with four long, sharp spines. It's
legs were not unlike those OF a lizard,
except that the TO-, 'cgs were rather short
and much weaker than the hind ones-an
indication thai ,he great animal could SIT
up like a kangaroo, and had perhaps
descended from bipedal ancestor. From
a study OF its teeth, il has been determined
that this prehistoric beast was a plant
eater.
Further investigations OF IFS head,
which is so small as 10 be quite out OF
proportion TO IFS massive body, reveal
the fact that il had scarcely any brain.
Although its body is supposed TO have
weighed more than that OF an elephant,
the brain of the elephant is fifty times as
heavy-a fact that offers an excuse for
the immense amount OF defensive armor
with which II was equipped, making il
practically impregnable, so tar as its
enemies were concerned, if il had any.
It's bones alone weigh nearly ton, and
il is estimated that in life the reptile
weighed betweel seven and ten tons"

Intensive Wheat Growing.

Seven years ago, says Pearson's Week
ly, Russian farmer discovered method
of increasing the yield OF wheat in SC
startling manner that no one believed
he was telling the truth. The Russian
declared that it was possible to get seventy
pounds OF grain from one seed, and tc
make an acre carry forty-five tons.
That does sound a miracle, and The
Companion does not vouch for it; but
here is the method, and if any farmer has
the patience TO try il, he will certainly be
surprised at the result.
Each grain is planted separately in q
sunken bed about fifteen inches deep and
three and half feet in width-feet, re-
member, not inches.
As soon as the grain sprouts. the little
blade is covered with thin layer OF earth
about an inch and half in depth. The
result is that you get three stalks instead
OF one. AT the end OF three weeks the
hoe comes into use again, and the three
stalks being covered with earth, turn into
nine stalks. This process on being re-
peated third time results in twenty
seven stalks, and the Russian in question
repeated il ten times in all, so that at last
each grain produced 59,046 stalks. If
the seed is first sown in the ordinary
fashion, and then transplanted TO the pit
before mentioned, you get an even
stronger growth, so that, after only eight
coverings, more than l05 stalks have been
produced from a single grain.-YOath S
Companion.

Nothing More To Invent.

Someone poring over the old files in
the United States Patent Office at tWaSh-
ington the other day found letter written
in 1893 that illustrates the limitations OF
the human imagination.
II was from an old employee OF the
Patent Office, offering his resignation to
the head of the department. His reason
was that as everything inventible had
been invented the Patent Office would
soon be discontinued and there would be
no further need of his services or the
services Of any of his fellow clerks. He,
therefore, decided to leave before the
blow fell.
Everything inventible has been invent
ed? The writer of this letter iourneyed
in stage coach or canal boat. He had
never seen a limited train or an ocean
greyhound. He read at night by can
delight, if he read at all in the evening I;
more likely he went to bed soon after
dark and did all his reading by daylight.
He had never seen house lighted with
Illuminating gas. The arc and incan-
descent electric lights were not TO be in
vented for nearly half century.
II he had ever heard OF electricity he
thought OF il as the mysterious and dan
gerous fluid that strikes from the clouds
during thunderstorm. That il could be
harnessed to do mans will had never oc-
Cured to him.
He never heard the clicking OF tele-
graph sounder The telephone would
have seemed as wonderful 10 him as a
voyage TO the moon. Motion pictures
would have reminded him OF black art,
and the idea that machine could be in
vented whereby man would fly above
the clouds like bird, ascending and de-
scending at will, would have seemed TO
him merely absurd.
The modern printing press, the linotype
machine, which seems almost 10 think;
the X-ray, by means of which surgeons
diagnose disease and injury and lay out
their work with scientific certainty, these
things were yet 10 be invented long after
he was dead. He could not imagine the
automobile, now so common that they
cover the streets and roads OF all the
world.
Hecould not dream that cannon would
be made 10 throw projectile more than
twenty miles, that repeating rifles, re-
volvers, and machine guns would be in
vented, that steel monsters OF the deep
would speed invisibly under the seas
with the power TO send giant ocean
liner TO the bottom within matter OF mo-
mentS.
He lacked the Imagination TO see all the
thousands and tens OF thousands Of COM
parativelY small inventions that have come
into being since his day, some OF them
for good and some for evil, but all telling
a story OF progress of one sort or another.
Probably in this he did not differ from
most Of his felIowmen in his day. II is
very likely most OF his friends agreed
with him that the limit OF invention had
been reached.
He seems unfortunately deficient in
Imagination and in optimism, as weTead
OF his letter OF resignation in the muSty
files OF the Patent Office. But LET us not
take too much JUNCTION 10 our souls. We
are quite as ignorant of what the next
eighty years may bring forth as he was
OF the future of American inventions.
