Then bal. ance biscuit on the handle and draw the dogs attention to 1t, saying, "Shut the door" He will naturally jump agains1 the door to get the biscuit, and his weight will shut 1t.

Such a Namel

A college professor In California hna discovered a mineral Hitherto unknown 10 science. v~hich he has called "crest- moreite," because it was found at Crestmore. We are told by way of description, says the Providence Bu!- letin, that 1t Is "a new hydrous basic of orthosilicate, containing small amounts of other oxides In place of silica," which leaves us altogether In the dark as to whether We shall soon be using crestmoreite as an improved stoveplpe material or wearing 1t as watch charm.

Curiously enough, 1t appears to have value In chronic diarrhoea and even irritable stomach, although it would seem to be contraindicated. "Where there is danger of dehnency disease, as in the case O. bottle fed infants, sailors, etc., the value of fruit juices is also well- known. Hence certain classes of sub. jects profit by being fruitarians to a considerable extent, but exclusive frultarianism is chimera foF many reasons. Exotic fruits are always ex pensive-even the banana delivered i0 the Northern states is not always cheap when reckoned by calory cost --Exchapge.

"eooze" First Meant "Drlnk.s

o0o<S VHoe mednt OFInk
 The word "booze" came to us befors the fourteenth century, seemingly from the Dutch, in the form "bous" or "bouse." At that time, as noun or verb, it, meant merely "drink," and to speak of gentleman as 'bousing' his wine was not libelous or even deroga. loly, writes Robert r. Utter in Har- per's Magazine. Somehow 1t acquired the added suggestion of excess and bad company, and by the time of Shakespeare we fnd 1t in glossaries of the argot of thieves and gypsies. The process may be understood when we think of the sinister meaning we often attach to the simple word "drink," which might conceivably run the same course if we misuse 1t often enough.

Fresh Greens for the Carary.


 Canaries are very fond of lettuce. celery tops and other young and ten. der greens, as all birdlovers know. When the birdman tells us we must not give these things to our pets too frequently the temptation to go con- trary to advice is strong, for we sym. pathize keenly. An accident showed me the way to gratify our pets without harm to them, aS experience has proven. Some months since, little birdseed was spilled on the earth in large tub containing rubber plant Soon these seeds spreuted. aAd we hit upon the idea of removing the bottoro from the cage and setting 1t over th. young sprouts. The joy the canaries found in their greens, and the conse. Quent discovery that the birds were really gaining in health and song con. vinced us that box of sprouting bird. seed was the thing to keep on hand tos them.-Exchange.
 Quality of Knowledge CountA
 What is needed to elevate the sou Is, not that Iuan should know all that has been thought and written in regard to the spiritual nature--not that a man should become an eocy. clopedia; Btt that the great idea, In which all discoveries termsnate, which sum up all sciences, which the philos' opher extracts from infinite details, may be comprehended and felt, quotes William Ellery Charming. It is not the quantity, but the quality of knowl edge, which determines ths minds dig. nity. A great mind is formed by a few great ideas not by an infln- ity of loose details. 1 have known very learned men, who seemed to ne very poor in intellect, t,ecause they had no grand thoughts. The illumin' ation of an age does not consist in the amount of its knowledge, but in tho broad and noble principles of which that knovledgs Is the foundation and tnspiEer.

whose motion picture successes are
highly flattering to her versatility. is
at her best in new American-Mu-
tual production, "a Game of Wits"
in which she is given opportunity to
introduce the light comedy that made
her beloved of Gotham. In the new
play, Miss Kane is cast as the daueh-
ter of specializing millionaire who
gets himself all tied up with a market
shark and is at the latter's mercy.
The man who holds the young girls
father at his mercy wants to marry
the girl. but he is 60 years old and
she is 10, SO, of course. the father re-
jects the proposition with scorn. Not
so the girl, who has overheard the
proposal. She courts the old finan-
cier, overfeeds him, overexercises him
in long walks through the mountains
and at last drives him to the extrem-
lty of running away to escape her
athletic demands. She makes him
pay 100000 indemnity. Spottiswoode

is practically nil. In fact, the pro-
portion of losses from sorghum poi
soning as compared with losses from
other preventable causes is very small.
When the plants are cured the poi
son disappears from the leaves, so
that there is no danger from feeding
the cured forage, nor have any losses
been reported from feeding sorghum
silage.
Sorghum in the Rotation.
Sorghums may be employed in the
rotation like Indian corn or any other
spring crop. While they are report
ed to be hard on the land, there is no
evidence to show that they take from
the soil any more plant food in pro-
portion to their growth than other
crops. Because of the fact that the
sorghum roots are punched near the
surface Of the ground, they do leave
the soil in poor physical condition
which probably accounts for the OBJ
served in furious effect on the sue
ceeding crop. If, however, the lane
is plowed as soon as the crop is re
moved, and allowed to aerate for {
month or more before seeding, any
injurious effect of the sorghum OF
the soil will practically disappear.
Sorghum, however, should not b,
grown on the same land many year
IN succession. Continuous cropping
to sorghum will soon result in poo
yield. This is indicated to some ex
tent by in atest at Davis, started il
1914, the data on which is given be
low:
Effect of Rotation on Sorghum.
