Merely q Good Story.

Wars produce many stories OF fc-
ton. some Of which the oftener they
are told the more they are believed TO
be true. The Civil war was no e1-
ception to this rule. and the story Of
the apple tree is one Of these fctions
based on a slight foundation OF fact
There was, indeed. an apple orchard
on one side Of the hill occupied by the
Confederate forces Running diagonal
" I'D the hill was a wagon road, which,
at one point, ran very near one Of the
trees, 50 that the wheels Of the We
hicles had on that side cut of the
roots Of the tree, leaving little en-
bankment. General Babcock, Of my
staff, reported to me that when he first
met General Lee he was sitting on this
embankment, with his feet In the road
below, and his back resting against
the tree. The story had no other foun-
dalton than that. Like many other
good stories, it would be very good II
it was only true.-Memoirs Of
Ulysses s. Grant.

incredible Names,

Speaking of 'burdensome" names,
Stray Stories tells of one Arthur Pep
per of Liverpool England, who be-
slowed upon his infant daughter &
name that comprised every letter In
the alphabet running from Anna to
Yetty Zeno.
1t seems surprising that the names
Of Dickens characters, odd though
they were, should be found In real life
for 1t was from life that many of
them were taken. Some, as is known,
were copied from the names of signs
over business places; but that was not
the novelist's only source of selection.
John Forster, his biographer, found
among his papers a carefully drawn
list Of names, with the sources from
which he obtained them. Some Of the
names are too extravagant for any
thing but reality: Jolly Stick, Bill
Marigold, George Muzzle, William
Why, Robert Gospel, Robin Scrubban,
Sarah Goldsacks. Catherine Two, So
phia Doomsday, Rosetta Dust and
1allJ 0fMbSetk-Youth's Companion.

The first requisite for the kitchen is
cleanliness and a definite suggestion
that everything about it is perfectly
SANITARY. Nothing suggests this better

tshould be painted white and the furni.
ture, including the tables, chairs. cabi.

kept scrubbed and spotlcss.

necessary things can be SO selected as

crcckery should be of one color and as
nearly the same design as possible a
row of blue and white, or yellow and
white arranged along kitchen shelf
can be just as decorative as the bric-a.

more interesting because it is more un.
expected.
Rows OF jams and iellcs can also be
made to serve a purpose on the kitchen
shelf before they reach their ultimate
destination on the dining room table,
, There is no reason why the housewife
should not select glasses and jars for
her fruits and preserves that will be
uniform. She can also buy good look
ing labels ana put them on carefully.
This does not take a great deal of extra
time. 1t only means q bit of forethought
and the result will be quite worth while,
Even such hDmely things as the pots
and pans lend themselves nicely to the
entire decorative scheme and if chosen
of enamel AMI aluminium ware, and
hung on hooks properly placed about
the kitchen wallis, they add their bit in
carrying out the big idea.
OF course the greatest possibilities
perhaps are in the window curtains.
These can be made OF SO many differ,

They curtain the window and at the

of the kitchen, and it can be made more
interesting ifspipcd with red, green or

 The improvement of the Simmons road is most noticeable for people of Prescott for the vast bettcrmcnt that has been wrought on the hill between Browns ranch and the Burnt Ranch. Here, the former mar row and sharply curved road has been widcned and strengthened.
