Slaves in 1856.

Slavery existed in nearly all of the
English colonies from an early period
until shortly before or soon after the
Revolutionary war, and the African
trade was openly tolerated by the
British government In 1856 there
were $4,000 slaves in the colonies,
scattered from New England to Geor-
gia. Slavery was not prohibited in
Massachusetts until 1880, nor in Yer
mont until 1777 The United States
census of 1910 showed 80 slaves in
Connecticut. 1851 in New Jersey.
15,017 in New York, 795 in PennsyI-
vania and los in Rhode Island.
Slavery was gradually abolished in the
northern states, but in 1920 there were
still 81 slaves in Connecticut, 1857
in New Jersey, 10S0S in New York
211 in Pennsylvania and 4S in Rhode
Island. The census of 1850 showed
the disappearance of slavery in ali

DO BRUTEs' SPIRITS RETURN?
Abundance of Testimony Seeming to-

Have Been Seen.

With such quantities of spirits run

resenting departed animals?
There is plenty Of testimony indors-
ing animal ghosts. In India there are
ghost elephants and ghost tigers that
haunt the jungle. And natives of that
country are restrained from abusing
animals by belief that the phantom

the offender.
Andrew Lang quotes a well-known
naval officer as speaking of an occa-

"Why, there's old Peter" said the
officer.
Peter died since you were here

A fox terrier that was in the room
whined and trembed violently. The

hearthrug. shook itself and then flung
itself heavily down, the jingle of its

Feeding for Good Teeth.

The soon defective teeth. of the
adult are due in a great measure, ac-
cording to an authority on dentistry,
to the faulty kind of food given to
children. Food which requires mas

saliyary glands, While the practice Of
giving too much liquid food causes
narrow jaws, weakens the gums and

thority continues: Thin, small jaws

carats, is reported to have been found
in Burmah. but it was broken into
three pieces, and the. report is that
one of them was sold uncut in Calcut-

as ''Groga Box" or the Dragon Lord,
weighed 40 carats in the rough, %
carats after the cutting process. and
was said to be the finest of its size
ever seen. In 1887 a stone of 40

LAMB THAT GREW ON TREE
According to the TaImud, Remarkable
Plant Furnished Food for Our
Very Remote Ancestors.

How often is the wish expressed
that money grew on trees? Why not
wish for lamb to grow that way, for
according to the Latin translation of
the Talmud of Jerusalem, that ancient
book of law and customs, wonderfully
tender and eatable lambs did grow on
trees.
This work, remarks a writer in the
New York Evening Sun, tells of a
plant called the jeduah. which was
formed like a lamb From a bunch of
rather coarse, thick leaves there is
sued steam on which the zoophyte
grew, so the story $oes. In every re-
spect it was formed like an animal
suspended on stalk within the radius
of which it graZed. 1t devoured all
the heritage which it was able to reach
within the circle of its tether, and
then, unless some overventurous ami
NAL came near enough for it to snatch
the lamb would die of starvation.
Our remote ancestors hunted the
lamb at great risk, for historians tell
us that the lamb had not earned its
reputation for gentIeness then. 1t was
extremely ferocious, especially if it
had exhausted its provender. The
only way to overcome it was to cut the
stem by well-aimed darts or arrows
sent from safe distance. Once the
stem was severed the animal fell TO
the earth soon TO die, and the sue
cessful hunter could safely come forth
TO carry his game back to his cave
home.

Gold was used for most part as, a
useful metal; for decoration and orna-

ity; and after longer period an egg
of gold fell from which issued the
