How Binder Irvine Is Made From
Palmetto Trees.

AT last the palmetto tree Is coming
into Its own. 1t has been posing for
two-thirds OF century In Southern
poetry and Southern oratory, and now
Florida and South Georgia and other
Southern states have tnrned upon 1t
and said: "Now you be useful as
we'll as ornamental You shall take
the place of Mexican sisal for the
manufacture of cotton bagging and
binding Irvine and, instead of being
used for Recommending to sweep igno-
Bile floors, you shall become useful 70
theSnation.'
A newly invented machine spins the
fibre out of the palmetto leaves. They
are stripped green from the frees, fed
into one end Of the machine and
emerge balls of binder twine from the
other end. .s-
In four months the stripped tree will
have another coat of leaves which will
be cut of at their stems and fed to
the machine, and so on three times
year.

Naminu Alaska.

The name Alaska Is an English cor
ruption Of peryersion Of Alayeksa, as
1t was called by the aboriginal lnhnb-
ltants Of the Aleutian islands, lying
to the westward, observes n geograph-
zeal magazine. When the Russians
first came to one Of the Aleutian
islands, they were told that a vast
country lay to the eastward, aud that
its name was Alnyeksa. The Aleuts
called their own island Nagun Alay-
eksa, meaning the land lying near
Alayeksa. BY a process of Russian
izing and Anglicizing Alayeksa became
Alaska, and Nagun-Alayeksa became
Unalaska. The original Aleutian word
Alayeksa meant "thc great country
as the inhabitants OF scattered islands
would naturally consider vast CON
tlnental region Of varied resources and
beautiful scenery aS Alaycksa or Alas

GAMES Z OF 'sIAMEsE KIDDIEs
Girls Play Keeping House, With Dried
Clay DoIlies-6oys Jump Rops
and Roll Marbles.

When the Siamese folks get up In
the morning they do not go to the
washstand to wash their faces, for the
simple reason that Slamese houses can
bonst no such article of furniture, says
an exchange.
So our little Siamese friend just
runs down to the foot OF fhe ladder
for, the, house. is built On posts-to
large jar Of water With q eeconut
I shell dipper. There she washes her
| face by throwing the water over her
hands and rubbing them over Tier face.
She needs no towel FOR the water Is
left TO dry. She does not brush her
teeth, for, they are stained black by
chewing the, betel nut. Her hair does
not, require combing, either, for 1t IL
all shaved except a little tuft on the
top, Of the head. and that Is tied IN d
little knot and not very often conibed.
After breakfast Is over, the children
60 off aud and some pleasant place in
which to play, The girls play at keep
ing house and make dishes OF clay
dried In the sun. Little images of clay
washed with lime are their only dolls.
. The boys. Of siam are very fond OF
pitching coins, and spend much Of their
time in this game They play leap
frog and very ofteb Jump the rope.
Now that so many foreigners are In
SLAM, they have learned 10 play mar
bles, too.
AS the streets in Slam are almost
all rivers and canals the Siamese boys
aud girls early learn to row, and pad
die their little boats almost as soon as
they learn to swim, which they do
when they are only four or five years
old.

Py0nLEs, A CAT FISHERMAN
Emulated Skill Of His Master, and En-
joyed Diving in and Fetching
Out tho Dogfieh.

The English naturalist, Francis
auckland, once told story OF fish
erman of Portsmouth, England, whose
cat, Puddles, emulated In his peculiar
way the fishing skill of his master.
Quoting the fisherman, Mr.. auckland
said: gaa
He was the wonderfullest water
cat as ever come out of Portsmouth
harbor, was Puddles. He used to 20
out a-fishin' with me every night. Cold
nights he would sit in my lap. while !
was a-fishin' AMI poke his head out
every now and then, or else / would
wrap him up in the sail and make him
lie quiet. He'd lay down on me when
/ was asleep, and If anyone come he'd
swear good one, and have the face
off 'en If they went to touch me. And
he'd never touch fish, not even lit
tie teeny pout, II didn't give It to
him. was obligated to take him out
a-fishin', or else he'd stand and yowl
and MARI till / went back and catched
him by the poll and SHE'D him into the
boat. and then he was quite happy.
When It was fine he used to stick
up ut the bow Of the boat and sit a.
watchin' the dognsh. They used to
come alongside by the thousands at
time, and when they was thick all
about he'd dive in and fetch 'em out,
jammed in his mouth, just as If they
was a parcel Of rats. He looked ter
ribls wild about the head whea hi
come up out Of the water with the fsh
in his teeth.
I larnt him the water myself. One
day, when he was d kitten, ! took him
down to the sea to wash him and
brush the fleas out of him, and in Z
week he could swim after feather
or a cork.-Youth's Companion. sa ~
