Arab Foes.

The Arab who is fighting with the
Turks in Mesopotamia has some Curl
Gus ways. He takes off his shoes
when he enters a house, but keeps on
his hat. He reads and writes from
right to left. He eats scarcely any
thing for breakfast or dinner, but in
the evening he sits down to hot meal
swimming in oil. His sons. eat with
him, but the ladies of the household
wait till the males have finished.
The Arab rides donkey when trav-
cling, his wife walking behind, and he
laughs at the idea of giving up his
seat for a woman. The Arab has one
strong virtue, and that is, he is rarely
seen drunk. He is not very affection
ate, is very ignorant, and has so little
initiative that he rarely takes on any
thing worth doing, or attempts to
carry out any enterprise.

Locked up-Mary, you don't mean
to say you've got young man in your

ooh, yes, ma'am. He's handsome,
Henry is. Come, I'll show YOU"
They went upstairs. Mary marched
to closet and threw open the door.

happened was that Mary opened a
trunk, and from beneath pile of
clean handkerchiefs took out photo
graph,

silk From sawdust.

Making artificial silk from sawdust
and other lumber waste is the latest
experiment of the United States forest
products laboratory at Madison, Wis.
The use of artificial silk made direct
ly from wood is increasing by leaps
and bounds. Originally its principal
use was in the manufacture of braids
and trimmings, but recently the manu-
facture of hose from artificial silk has
become an industry of vast impor-
lance. Other uses for artificial silk
are woven goods Of all kinds, Innings,
tapestries, ETC., neckties, ribbons,
sweater coats, etc. About 100000
pounds of artificial silk are used an
nually in the United States. There
are several methods of manufacture,
but that from wood pulp is usually
made by treating the wood pulp with.
caustic I've to form a viscose, which
is allowed to age for some time. 1t
is then forced through dies to form
threads, which are hardened by a
treatment with sulphuric acid, ammo
MUM sulphate, and sodium borate, OF
formic acid. After washing and dry
ing, the silk is ready for use The
laboratory is investigating the arti-
fetal silk problem as a possibility for
utilizing wood waste, and has on hand
a variety of articles made from the
material.-Boston Transcript.

THE CULTURE OF cINERARIAs
BY C. oEoFRY.

In the culture Of the cineraria the
one mistake SO often made is that of
sowing the seed too soon. The plants
thus raised, more often than not, make
a rank growth; this is not in any sense
desirable. By sowing in May or June,
plants large enough for all decorative
purposes can be had. In after treat
ment the aim should be to secure as
hardy growth as possible.
Cineraria is one of the most useful
and ornamental OF plants, with flowers
Of the richest and most brilliant col
ors and shades and Of the finest tex
lures.
For succession, 1t is well to make
sowings of the seed from May to Sep
TENDER, but the main sowing in July.
The cineraria is a very fine plant
for the conservatory and for house
decoration. The coloring of this plant
endears it to growers: there are the
lovely and rare cornfiower-blue tints
in profusion, rich crimson and blood
red in many varieties, deep rose and
shell pink, and a wonderful combina-
ton Of pink and light blue shades
There is also lovely single pure
white variety that is worth consider
ing for your all-white bed.

CARRIED THE HONEY BACK
Bees Proved They Had Something to
say About the Disposition Of
Their Product.

A farmer possessed few swarms
Of bees which he kept in what are
called box. hives. Inside there were
small boxes, which would hold about
two or three pounds of honey each, an
exchange says. About eight of these
were placed on the top of the hive, and
as at least one side of each box was of
glass, the keeper could easily look
into the hive and see when the boxes
were filled with honey.
The farmer usually chose to do this
early in the morning, before the bees
came out to begin the labors of the
day, or at night when they had fin
ished them. Bees do not like to have
their dwelling places molested, and
usually try to sting the intruder.
One day some friends we're at the
farmers house and as they wanted
honey the farmer thought he would
venture to take it out in the after
noon. He knew that some of the boxes
were quite full. The hives stood few
rods from the house, and on that side
of the house were large doors lead
ing into the cellar. While the boxes
were partly of glass, the bottom of
each was made of little Stats, so that
the bees could go in and out as they
liked.
The farmer took out several boxes,
carried them into the cellar, shut the
cellar doors nearly together, and hur-
ried away. He put the boxes into the
cellar in order to allow any bees
which might be in them to fly out and
return to the hive. But, in his haste
to avoid being stung, the farmer left
the doors open too much, SO that the
cellar was quite light, whereas it
should have been dark.
The bees were so excited, and en-
ragged that they flew in all directions,
attacking everyone who came in their
way. When suppertime came there
were so many bees flying about the
cellar doors that no one cared to go
near them. Early the next morning
the farmer looked out of the dining
room window and observed that the
air was still full of bees.
At about ten o'clock he looked again
and not bee could be seen. He went
down and brought up the boxes. But,
instead of being heavy with honey, as
they were the day before when taken
from the hive, they were almost as
light as air, being filled only with
empty combs. The bees had worked
with will and had carried all the
honey back to the hives.
