BROOMS FROM PINE NEEDLES
Said to Be an Excellent Substitute for the BrlstIes Now Used, and Will
 Last Longer.

One of the latest discoveries is new use for pine needles. It has been found that the needles of the pine make a fair substitute for bristles in brushes and brooms. They are found in great quantities on the ground in fir forests, and, owing to the large amount of silica in them, they are hard, and do not decay rapidly.
 The pine needles are dealt with in two ways. Where they are long they are simply punched together and tied firmly, and a stick is pushed down the center as a handle.
 The other plan is to insert clusters of smaller needles in holes in a thick ish piece of wood. These holes are filled with hot pitch, and when this material has set hard and dry the pine needles are held firmly in place.
 Elaborate tests have shown that pine needles wear well. .fhey are not more easily broken than much of the material which has been commonly used in breom-making, and, owing to their hardness, they can withstand a great deal of friction.

Jack Frost and the Glass Cradle

When Big-Boy, without once stop ping to think, said he had never been a baby, everyone laughed. Big Boy never a baby! What a joke!
 "Indeed, you were," said Madame | Garden Manual softly. "You were a tiny, helpless creature, and had to be shielded just as the plant babies from cold and wind and Jack Frost's bite. But with care you have grown to be big, husky boy and a fine soldier of the United States School Garden Army. And this is fine glass cradle you have made for the plant babies. What seeds have you to plant in your cold frame?"
 'I have lettuce to begin with. When the little plants come up they will stay in the nice warm bed until they are transplanted, when the ground is warm enough to set them out Do you like lettuce Madame Garden Manual?"
 "Indeed, do, and I recommend it to all my friends. It is one of the most refreshing and useful foods, as we'll as one of the most beautiful. It is a Green Food and green foods are necessary for children. How pretty dish of salad looks on a hot day, and then, too, we use it to make other vegetables and salads at-trac- tive. Lettuce is a rich vegetable, too. It is rich in mineral salts.
 "But it must be washed very, very carefully, indeed, because so much earth is attached, and imp insects and other unpleasant things may hide in it's leaves, Each leaf should be washed in the hand under running water. All uncooked vegetables must be given bath before eating.
 "Hat water is the enemy of all things that remain on vegetables when they are plucked, and Hot Water is so powerful that he is able to fight all the enemies, so cooked vegetables need only enough wash ing to get them clean. Dear me, l fear I am preaching Q sermon, and Jack-in-the- will not like that" ," And Madame Garden Manual looked around the small circle, but they were so interested and so proud of Big-Boy's cold, frame that she was re-as-sur-ed.
 "What I want to know" said Ku- ti-pi, the big black cat, "is this-am a soldier of the School Garden Army"
 Bobtail, the best dog-friend of Big-Boy, stood up, shut one eye, and looked the big black cat over from whiskers to tail-tip.
 "Bow-wow-wow! I thought you looked like a witch-cat, Bow-wow- WOW, and now am sure of it since you can speak real peoples lan- guage."
 "Why, you are talking yourself, Bobtail! What do you know about thatw cried Big-Boy.
 "Ah, that is easy when you have a fairy for a friend and companion. I can wish, them to talk and my magic jacket falls right over their dumbness and lets out speech" an- nounced the little green Elf Man.
 ooh, is there speech always right there?" asked Little-Girl who was surprised to hear Ku-ti-pi speak.

 Then he turned to novel writing He wrote brilliantly and rapidly, turning with the utmost ease from realistic pictures of contemporary life to stories 01 romance and to historical novels Children of the Soil," which he called haS best book, Is a simple story of Polish life which won more favor with his own countrymen than 1t did abroad
 In the sos he completed his tremen- dous trilogy, With Fire and Sword" The Deluge" and Pan Michael" There was an epic quality about these Historical novels that made many peo- Dfe In many lands hail him as a new Scott or a new Dumas

Then 1t passed to the stage, not only in America and England, but also in France and Ger many. Since that success Sienkiewicz had travelled widely, visiting England. France, Italy, Spain, Greece, Africa and the Far East. He received the Nobel prize for literature in 1905. From the outbreak of the war to his death in November, 1916, he devoted himself to she relief of Polish war victims.

don't forget!' and the little Elf Man nodded his head at Big-Boy and Little-Girl, and looked so solemn that everyone laughed.
 ''I love to hear that sound," said Madame Garden Manual, "What is so sweet as laughter. Beautiful clear laughter that is full of sun shine and dew fall and blue skies and white dawns."
 "0h, just like the wood fire?" asked Little-Girl, who remembered the story of the tree.
 "Yes," said Madame Garden Man ual softly, 'just like a wood fire" By Cecilia Reynolds Robertson.

k(kT DO not know of a cer-
 tainty her name even-Lygia

@ iOAl1ly bOI 1dAlC CNGu-LyS Sld or Callina? They call her Lygia in the house, for she comes of the Lygian nation; but she has her own barbarian name-Callina. It is wonderful house-that of those Plau- tuses. There are many people in it !: buf It is as quiet there as in the groves ar Subiacum. For a number of days did not know that divinity dwelt in the house. Once about daybreak I saw her bathing in the garden foun- tain; and swear to thee by that foam from which Aphrodite rose, that the rays of dawn passed right through her body. I thought that when the sun rose she would vanish before me in the light, as the twilight of morning does Since then I have seen her twice; and since then, too, know not what rest is, I know nor what other desires are, have no wish to know what the city can give me. I want not women, nor gold, nor Corinthian bronze, nor amber, nor pearls, nor wine, nor feasts /; want only Lygia.'"
 Thus. did Vinicius, young Roman patrician of the time of Nero, an- nounce his love for Lygia, daughter of king, beautiful hostage from her nation forgotten in the turmoil of the world empire and brought up as a Roman girl.
 V1nicius was speaking to his uncle Petronius, known to his own time as krhitor E1oooDtio r11po troipod in oil the art and beauty of Greece, wise witty, and learned, gayly stalking his life in his daily battle of wits with Tigellinus, who provided for the gross ef desires of the tyrant Nero as Pe- tronius did for his finer and more artistic ones.
 It was a time when the conflicting Hides of pagan age, sadly degenerate from the sturdy days of pristine Roman virtues, mingled with those of a new era in the world, only recently herald ed from Judea. In the complicated threads of the picture of Rome, cap ftal of the world, appear the figures of Better and Paul on their mission of spreading the new religion of Christ; Poppaea, wife of Nero, beautiful as dream, but wicked as a nightmare; Eunice, the charming slave of Petro- nfus; Chilo, willy Greek who can be Christian or pagan as profit leads hlm Ursus, prodigious in his strength, sim pie as a child in his faith in Christ and his devotion to Lygia (from whom q. B. s. may have drawn a sugges- ton In "Androcles and the Lion"), and many minor folk who help to make the story stand out as unusually human among the numerous tales of Greco Roman times.
 When Vinicius told his uncle Petro- mus of his passion for Lygia, the lat ter thought nothing was easier than fo provide his nephew with what he regarded as a new plaything; word to Nero, who as emperor had all hos tages in his care-summon the maiden to the palace, hand her over to the young patrician as her guardian-what more could be needed to satisfy any ones desires, especially as the maiden manifest1y was pleased with Vinicius? But PetrOnius and his nephew reek- oned without new force that had en-, tered into this Roman world. They

Turk NatiOnalists May Get Places in
 Turkish Cabinet

Constantinople, March 4.-Turkish nationalists are expected to be prom inent in the new cabinet and such prominent figures as Roulf Bey, de- putty for Sivas and even Mustapha Kemal, nationalist leader in Anato- lia may have places. It is considered probable the new cabinet will strong ly oppose ratification of peace treaty if it does not recognize the claims of the nationalists. Allied high commissioners here have been insisting the cabinet should better conditions in Anatolia and recent disorders at Marsh and in Cilicia. The Constantinople has been virtual ly powerless, as Mustapha Renal has been in full control in Anatolia.
 It is universally conceded that Mustapha Renal represents the real power in Turkey. His organized forces are variously estimated from 500 ,0OO to 100000 with the co-opera- tion of various Arab and Kurd bands. His supporters predict war this spring, or sooner, if the Greeks are left in Smyrna and the French in Cilicia. He virtually dominates the Constantinople government and Sui tan. The real government is ih Angora beyond reach of naval guns, and the nationalists boast the allies cannot reach it. British assumption that Arab, Palestine and Mesepotam- ia are already under control IS con trasted by the nationalists.
