OIL From Melon Seeds.

A genuine American invention orig
mated at Rocky Ford, where n melon
grower named Burrill, with the fac
ulty Of inductive reasoning, found out
that a clear, rich oil can be expressed
from the seeds of cantaloupes, notes
the Chicago Tribune. He submitted
samples to government chemists at
Washington, who notified him that
their tests indicated a new table oil Of
the same texture and color as olive oil,
one which needed no refining process.
There is wide significance in this dis
covery. which Indicates melons, squash
and pumpkin seeds, as perhaps those
Of citrus fruit as well, as a prolific
source Of oil supply. ...@ W.

HENRY FOURTH OF GERMANY
klns's Troubles In Helping to Rule the
World included Much Suffering
-. and Humiliation.

OF all the wrangling mOnarchs who
had part in running the world during
the infancy of government none was
more picturesque than Henry w Of
Germany. And he suffered perhaps
the greatest humiliation that ever was
visited upon king, writes a historian.
Gregory VII became pope in the sew.
enth decade Of the eleventh century.
The election did not please Henry in
the least. Under the .pilfered title Of
Roman king he claimed a share In pa
pal affairs and did not propose to be
treated lightly. But Gregory persuad-
ed him to confirm his elevation. Then
lissension broke out between the two,
and Henry's partisans unseated the
pope, who retired to Canossa, In the
Apennines. &. - w.. p, H.;
Gregory retaliated on Henry by
welding that most powerful weapon
Of the church-exc0mmunicatiOn. This
casting out Of the faith was the most
feared Of all fates Iii ancient days, and
even Henry's close advisers fell away
from him. The king faced the storm
bravely enough. but things went
AGAINST him and he decided to pro-
pitiate Gregory. So, in the midst OF
winter he crossed the Alps, a truly pro-
digious undertaking in those times. and
presented himself before the castle
where Gregory was staying, asking aal-
tlience. At first Gregory refused, but
then consented on condition that Hen
~ dismiss oil his attendants and enter
alone. The. German complied and
quilted his suite to go inside the walls.
Further on he came to second gate,
where he was told that the pope had
ordered him Invested Of all his regal
ornaments and clothing before proceed,
ing. Henry reluctantly consented, ana
received In exchange coarse WOODEN
tunic. Wearing this, he passed through
the gate, thinking his troubles over.
But there remained last gate and a
final trial. For three days and nights
he was kept standing outside the gate
in severe weather, fasting from morn.
ing until night. At the Eentl Of that
time Gregory finally had the king
ushered before him and agreed to lift
the ban II Henry would consent to q
truce between them, made distinctly
on the pope's terms. To this Henry
agreed and was restored to the church.
He left soon after. nursing his hatred
Tor Gregory and determined to square
accounts. This led to the pope notni.
ndtipg another prince for Henry's
throne and to endless warfare. The
king was accommodated second
time and. continued under the ban most
Of his troublous life. There have been
few INSTANCES OF a monarch undergo
ing any such humiliation as that he ex-
perienced, standing outside the pope's
door for three days in freezing weather.
