a Firm Friend.

Your dog is ready to 60 with you
anywhere, at any time, through any
thing, like good deeds in the old
play. He is something more than a
respectable family possession, a toy,
or part of an exhibition. He is a
comrade, whose loyalty never wav-
ers, whose devotion never obtrudes
itself, who responds to your mood
without pluming himself upon his
tact, and who neither commiser-
ates nor flatters. After you have
taken a few tramps together, you
understand each other perfectly,
and there is no fear of either chang
ing his mind, unless you yourself
prove tickle past belief. And when
you are no longer friends with your
dog you are beyond saving.-Coun-
tryside Magazine.

Luminous Mushrooms,

A traveller in Australia found a
very large mushroom weighing five
pounds. He took it to the house in
which he was for the time being re-
siding and hung it up to dry in the
sitting room. Entering after dark,
he was amazed to see a beautiful
soft light emanating from the fun
gus. 1t continued to give out light
for many nights, gradually dccreas-
ing until it was wholly dry. Many
kinds of fungi have this popularity.
Humboldt describes some he saw in
the mines. The glow in rotten wood
is caused by its containing the
threads of light giving fungi.

ANTIQUITY OF SUGAR CANE.
The Plant Is Mentioned In the Sacred

Growing sugar cane is an ind

Growing sugar cane is an indus
try so old that it antedates the
Christian era by many centuries,
according to an article by Edward
Albes in the bulletin of the Pan
American union.
Scientists admit they do not
know just where the sugar cane
originated" Mr.. Albes writes, "for
nowhere has it been found in its
wild state. 1t has been a cultivated
product for many centuries, and the
first mention to be found in writ
ten records is in the sacred books
of the Hindus, 4 have crowned

me- was written many centuries be-
fore the Christian era.
"In the train of Alexander the
Great, during his Asiatic conquests,
were some observant persons who
made notes of what they saw, when
not too busy killing off the inhabit-
ants, and in these written docu-
ments, according to later writer's
who fell heir to them, is told the
story of "a reed growing in India
which produces honey without bees

GAS to the manufactured product
of the cane, the first kind of sugar
of which mention is made was a
concentrated cane juice called CUR
in India Cgud' in Sanskrit), and this
seems to have been known as a food
from prehistoric times. That its
manufacture was a well established
industry in India in the seventh
century is attested by the old Chi
nese encyclopedia, the Pentsao-
kangmu, which states that the En-
peror T'aitsung, who reigned from
627 to $50 A. d., sent some of his
people to Behar to learn the art of
sugar making.
"The manufacture of sugar even
in the early centuries of the Chris
tan era was not restricted to the
mere evaporation of the juice of the
cane to dryness, for the Arabs and
Egyptians had soon learned how to
purify raw sugar by recrystalliza-
ton and incidentally how to make
a great variety of sweetmeats or
candy out of the product"
