MONKEYS LOVE FOR YOUNG
Mothers Practically Devote Entire
Lives to Their Babies and Fond
ness Knows No Bounds.

Monkeys are born in almost as help
less a condition as are human beings.
For the first fortnight after birth they
pass their time in being nursed, in
sleeping and in looking about them.
During the whole of this time the care
and attention of the mother are most
exemplary. The slightest sound or
movement excites her immediate no
tice, and, with her baby in her arms,
she skillfully evades any approaching
danger by the most adroit maneuvers.
At the end Of the first fortnight the
little one begins to get about by itself.
but always under its mothers watch
full care. She frequently attempts to
teach 1t to do for itself, but never for
gets her solicitude for its safety, and
at the earliest intimation Of danger
seizes it in her arms and seeks a place
of refuge. When about six weeks old
the baby begins to need more substan-
tial nourishment than milk and is
taught to provide for itself. The moth
er's fondness for her offspring con-
tinues; she devOtes all her time 20 its
comfort and education, and, should II
meet with an untimely end, her grief
is so intense as frequently to cause her
own death.

HAVE WINTER GARDEN CROPS
Lettuce and Radishes May Be Grown
for HoIidays-Foree Rhubarb In
Dark Basement.

1t Is comparatively easy, II one is
willing to spend q little time in car
ing for q hotbed, to have several green
vegetable crops throughout large
part of the winter season, according to
the horticultural department of the
University of Missouri College of Ag-
riculture. Ordinarily lettuce and rad
ishes may be planted in a hotbed soon
after cold weather begins and they will
be ready for the Thanksgiving season,
IL well cared for. Another crop may
be grown Immediately afterward by re-
charging the bed. and this will be
ready by the Christmas and New Year
holidays.
Onions may. be easily grown from
seeds under the same conditions, pro-
vidcd they are kept growing rapidly
and the temperature does not become
too high during the early part of their
growth. After the coolest weather is
past. if the frames are not needed for
starting an early spring crop, another
crop, or even two, of the same vegeta.
bles may be had in the early spring.
Another crop which may be had In
the fall by transplanting about the
time frost is expected, is celery. This,
when grown in the hOtbed or cold
frame, will be entirely self-blanching,
which is an added incentive to using
1t in this way.
Any thoroughly dark corners in the
basement may be used for forcing
roots of rhubarb or even asparagus at
any time during the winter, and parts
of the asparagus or rhubarb rows may
be forced early in the spring by build
ing a coldframe over them about two
months before the ground would ordi-
narily thaw.

CURIOUS LEGACIES ARE LEFT
Man Wills Wife a Farthing, to Be
Forwarded TO Her in an Un-
stamped Envelope.

A gentleman lately left "the large
oaken walking-stick, with silver head
bearing verses alluding to it having
been a sapling grown from an acorn
planted on my great-grandfather's
wedding day." to his nephew, and to
his sister "the damask tablecloth with
figures and armorial bearings COM
memoratlng the marriage of Louis w.
of France"
A Liverpool lady, who died lately,
left to her nephew-nephews seem to
be specially favored-her doormats,
except parlor mats and the oilclOth in
the hall. Perhaps she feared he might
sell the oilcloth and go in for riOtOus
living on the proceeds.
The will Of an eccentric lady con-
tanned the following clause: "As to my
sisters, nieces, nephew, brotherin-law,
cousin, nothing shall come from me
TO them but bag of sand to rub them
selves with. None deserve even good
by. / do not recognize single one of
them" Dear old thing! Meanest of
all, however, was the man who left
his wife a farthing with directions
that it should be forwarded to her in
ON unstamped envelope !-Tit-Bits.

Ancient EnqIish Tree.

There grows In the beautiful garden
Of the dowager counties Of Derby, in
England, IN ancient oak tree which is
said to be the oldest one in England.
The size of the trunk of this vener-
able oak testifies to its antiquity, but
on a stone seat by its side is more d.
rect evidence. The seat bears a tablet
recording that Wilberforce wrote In
his diary in 1888 that he well remem-
bered, after a conversation with Pitt,
and before descending int the Vale OF
Keston, sitting at the foot Of ian old
tree" and resolving to give notice In
the house of commons that he would
move the abolition of the slave trade.
The tree in question, which was
therefore a good age 100 years ago, is
carefully preserved with zinc plates
where the damp might gather, and the
branches are held up with iron bars,
but 1t bears a goodly crop of leaves,
and seems good for many years Of life.

IMPORTANT TO BE ON TIME
Even the Biggest Men Of Affairs Ar
range Their Business on Punctu-
atty as Safe Guide.

A young Kentuckian lost big for
tune by being 20 minutes late in keep
ing business engagement, according
to the Christian Herald.
The chcerlcss old fellow with the
scythe always gets all that Is coming
to him. And there is many bad scar
ON our fortunes where he has had to
prod us up to the mark.
Time Is cheap and we are apt to
think we can fitch IL as we will. But
IL Is always ourselves we rob, not
time.
Maybe you can waste your own time
by being late in keeping engagements
and feel that the loss, If any, Is your
own affair. Dat II also Is the affair OF
the man you keep waiting. You waste
his time, too. If. your time is worth.
less, maybe his Is not. He may con-
clude that his time Is worth more to
him than you are.
In many cases 1t may not matter
much. But one never knows until af-
terward whether 1t matters or not.
And through false politeness we are
usually assured that 1t does not mat
ter even when 1t does.
Only the idle and careless, whose
time is Of the least value, can afford to
waste 1t by looseness in keeping en-
gagements.
1t may be hard to acquire the fixed
habit of always being on time, but it
can be done, and it is worth while to
do it.
Great business men have this habit.
Men of great affairs, whose time is
most completely taken up, are usually
on time. 1t is they who know best the
value of time and the importance Of
saving it by being prompt.

We owe 1t to mankind to give our

though our best be poorer than some
