ALCOHOL GROWS ON TREES
Blooms Which Flourish in Pro-
fusion. in India.

Alcohol in these days has attention
from governments in diverse ways.
England has had a committee study
ing the possibilities of increasing the
production Of alcohol to be used in
generating power.
The opportunities discussed by the
committee are interesting. OF course,
potatoes, artiChokes and cereals came
in for attention. But it seems there
are less known sources Of alcohol For
example, there is the flower of the
mahua tree, which fourishes in Hy-
derabad and the central part of India.
This flower, when sun dried, contains
6 per cent Of it's weight in ferment-
able sugar, and apparently is to be
gathered by the ton. Then there are
the fertile gases Of the coke ovens.
They are so rich in surprises to the
everyday man that it is not very start
ling to learn they contain ethylene,

American Buys Franklin Portrait.

A portrait Of Benjamin Franklin,
painted in Paris in 1779 by Joseph ST.
frede Duplessis and showing him as
the American ambassador whom
Parisians of that period knew, has ar
rived in this country, the property of
Michael Friedsam, the New York Eve
ming Post states. Franklin presented
the portrait to the Freres Perier, en-
gineers and owners of the Chaillot fire
engine, when he left France, and it
was from the Perier family that Mr..
Friedsam purchased it this year.
The portrait, whose gorgeous frame
Of the period is carved in the form of a
serpent, is said to be typical Of the
best work of Duplessis, who was made
a member of the academy in 1774, and
was later appointed conservator of the
museum of Versailles. In Versailles is
a street called Duplessis, and a statue
Of him stands in public square of the
city.

Only Live Okapi in Captivity.

The only live okapi in captivity has
been brought to Antwerp from the
Congo. The okapi is the survivor of a
distant ancestor of the giraffe. An
adult stands about five feet high, and
although it has the general shape of
the giraffe, it's neck is relatively
shorter and it's forelegs are not so high
in proportion to the headquarters.
The sides of the animals head are
light fawn color and the general color
alton of the body is dark purple.
The most striking characteristic is
that the rump, and the upper part of
the legs are transversely striped with
black and white. 1t was first known
in 1901, having been found in the
Semliki forest, haunting low under
growth and swamps.

WHERE MOLE BEATS MONKEY
Similar is Comparatively Helpless in
the Water, as Are Many of
the Land Birds.

Have you ever noticed a gull drop
ping on the sea-how it spreads it's
wings high so that the feathers shall
not be wetted? If a CULTS wing feath-
ers get wet it cannot rise until they
dry, says a writer in London Tit-Bits.
Throw a mouse into the water. 1t
can swim a little, but as soon as it's
fur is soaked down it goes, and
browns. So, too, in the case of a rab-
bit. AS soon as it's fur is wet it is
done for.
A mole can swim like anything, but
a monkey is very helpless in the water.
Almost all land birds drown very rap
idly if unlucky enough to fall into the
water. They strike out with their legs,
move round and round in circle, but
cannot get off the water.
Lions and tigers are very good swim
mers, and do not share the common
cats hatred for the water. But of all
the cat tribe, the South American
jaguar is the finest performer in the
water. 1t seems often to plunge in for
mere joy of swim.
A rabbit, as we have said, browns
as soon as it's fer is soaked through,
yet curiously enough it's near relative,
the hare, swims quite well, and will
often cross a river when hunted
Bears are good swimmers even those
that usually live far from large sheets
of water, and the common rat is no
mean performer.
One of the best Of animal swimmers
is the horse. Horses have been known
to swim river nearly a mile wide
simply to get back to their old stables.
Deer, too, can all swim we'll There
are cases Of caribou having swum
across lakes ten miles wide when
escaping from forest fires.
