GOT MARK TWAIN STIRRED UP
Humorist, Tired of Listening to Series
of Remarkable Stories, Rose to
the Occasion.

A naval officer said at a banquet
In New York:
Some of the war stories that hear
remind me of Mark Twain Mark, you
know, once sat In the smoking room
of a steamer and listened for an hour
or two TO some remarkable lies. Then
he drawled:
Boys, these feats OF yours that
you've been telling about recall an ad-
venture of my own in Hannibal. There
was a fire In Hannibal one night, and
old man Hankinson got caught in the
fourth story Of the burning house. 1t
looked as If he was a goner None
of the ladders was long enough TO
reach him. The crowd stared at one
another with awed eyes. Nobody could
think of anything TO do. Then all Of
a sudden, boys, an idea occurred to
me. Fetch me a rope p yelled. Some
body fetched a rope, and with great
presence of mind l flung the end of 1t
up to the old man. Tie her round

kinson did so and l pulled him

SEEKS FOE OF JAP BEETLE
Bring to This Country Enemy Of
horticultural Pest.

The japanese beetle is going to have
its old enemies on its trail In this
country. The United States depart
ment OF agriculture has sent a mali to
Japan to find those enemies and send
them across the ocean. They will
then be established in the sections OF
New Jersey where the beetle has
gained a foothold. and they are ex-
pected to aid greatly in the control Of
the pest.
The agent employed In Japan Is
familiar with japanese conditions and
is a specialist in this kind Of work. 1t
Is expected that the task will require
his soJourn In Japan for two or three
years. While something IS known Of
the parasites OF the japanese beetle
a great deal Is stlll TO be learned only
under field conditions where the
beetle lives with all the enemies that
prey upon II. The beetle reached this
country with importations OF green
house plants, and thus far apparently
has been comparatively free from mo
lestatlons by natural enemies.

Free Tin Boxes

There are countless uses for tin
boxes.
Most dealers In cigarettes have on
hand boxes of this kind. eleven inches
long six inches wide and four inches
deep, which are thrown away. Some
dealers are glad TO accommodate per
sons who desire these tin receptacles
and will give them away without cost.
The following are some very good
ways In which the tin boxes can be
utilized:
Lunch boxes when out camping or
fishing. as they will hold good sup
ply of lunch.
Covered with a white enamel and
used as a cake-box or bread-box.
Keeping food away from rats, mice
and other pests.

Would Take Lesson From Nature.

1t is curious to note that from Scan
dinavia, the home of beautiful wooden
houses and abundance of timber, ap-
probation is being expressed at the
proposal TO revive the ancient method
of pise de terre in building. A writer
in Sweden shows how it should follow
the example of rockmaking in nature,
pounding, stamping and filling in every
crevice with fine particles of earth,
substituting for the weight of sea wa
ter some other form of pressure that
would not require so many centuries
to complete the operation. He does
not suggest that we should return to
cave-dwellings, but that we should
take lessons from the concrete ex-
amples In nature.
