Little Known Of FROGS.

Along the rivers and streams In
some parts of Texas. and around the
margins of ponds and lakes, we meet
with great beds of the water hya-
cinths, says the American Forestry
Magazine. Their delicate white flow
ers and dark green leaves present a
picture Of floral luxuriance not very
easily forgotten. Where they grow,
one should be on the lookout for va
rious species of reptiles or batra-
chians, and their habits and appear.
ances in nature carefully observed
We know very little about some Of
the forms, and science will welcome
any new facts in regard to them.
Some of the frogs and toads, for ex-
ample, are not only very rare in collec-
tons. but we are practically lacking
in any field notes upon their exact
distribution and habits.

coIors Save the Eggs.

We have heard great deal abou.
protective coloration in nature, and
when we consider the advantages
which accrue to protectively colored
eggs we may wonder why sons eggs
have remained pure white through the
ages, why others are Of the most con-
spicuous greenish blue, and why still
others stand out by their spotted or
speckled patterns, says the American
Forestry Magazine. White eggs are
for the most part laid by hole-nesting
species of birds like the owls and
woodpeckers, and since the eggs are
well hidden in their dark cavities ii
has not been necessary for them to
develop protective coloration. The
bright greenish blue eggs of most OF
the thrushes, for example, must be
hidden in nests which are concealed
in dense vegetation and the speckled
eggs Of the ground nesting sparrows
depend for their safety upon the good
hiding of the grass-woven nest.

Daudet on Gambetta.

Frequently the great man is some
thing of boor, but it is probable that
Daudet exaggerated a trif1e when he
wrote the following of Gambetta, the
great French statesman: II can still
see him entering the dining room. his
back bent, his shoulders sway'ng, his
face aflame and ona-eyed also. AS soon
as he appeared all the other equine
heads around the table were raised and
he was greeted with loud neighs of
'Ah. ah, all; here's Gambettap He
sat down noislly, spread himself over
the table, or threw himself in his
chair, perforated, struck the table with
his fists, laughed loud enough to break
the windows pulled all tho table cloth
toward him, got drunk without drink
ing, snatched the dishes away from
you, took the words out of your mouth,
and after talking all the time went
off without having said anything"

NEW YORK GOAL OF PILGRIMS
Their Original intention Was to Found
Colony There, but Plans
Were Frustrated.

The Pilgrim Fathers might have
founded New York if it had not been
for the bribing of the Mayflower skip
per by the Dutch. who persuaded him
to keep the Pilgrims from the mouth
of the great river, which they planned
to settle with a colony of their own.
The ancient charter of the Pilgrims
gave them land which probably in
cluded New York. The patent was
granted to them after they fed from
the Virginia company. This grant was
not exactly the instrument the Pill
grims wanted, because Of its religious
provisions. The Pilgrims wished to
get a patent that would permit them
the fullest liberty Of worship, but the
king refused to give them a charter in
which definite stipulation of relig-
ious freedom was contained So they
were forced to content themselves
with the Virginia patent, 1t being sug-
gested by their sympathizers that in
the wilderness they would probably
not be disturbed.

MONUMENTS OF VAST SIZE
That on Leipzig Battlefield, Though
higher, Less Costly Than. Me-
mortal to italian King.

Leipzig possesses monument
which rises only few inches short
OF 300 feet. "The Battle of the Ma
items" monument stands in the middle
ID the plain where Butcher routed Ma
p0leon's army. One million cubic
meters of earth were displaced to
make room for its base. 1t is sur
rounded by an enclosure quarter Of
a mile wide and nearly half mile
leag.
Next to the Pyramids 1t is the high
est In the world, but it is by no means
the costliest. This distinction belongs
to the national memorial to Victor EN-
manuel II, erected on the Capitoline
hill In Rome at cost of S20OO0.0O
1t took 81 years to complete this huge
pie of marble steps, covered with
statues, bas-reliefs, and mosaics. Sac
conf, the architect, who designed 1t,
died long before the work was finish
ed, but he left models complete in
every detail, and his original plans
were never tempered with.

TOOK TIME TO DO THINGS
In "ox-cart Days" Men of Genius Did
Their Literary Work Leisurely
and Well.

How did they do it, those old fell
lows? Take novel by Thackeray, for
example. 1t is monumental. Looks as
II one of them would be a life work.
The mere penning of it appals mod
ern man. Yet Thackeray turned out
volume after volume as if time and
energy We're interminabe. And his
work was practically perfect. No
slovenliness, no carelessness, no haste,
no guess-thls- will-do-ness Today we
have every accessory to speed, every
time-saving device, all knowledge
classified and compendiumed and
stored in convenient libraries. But
where are the Thackerays? Or the
Goethes, Dickenses, Hugos and Bal
Zacs?
Men of their day were compelled to
waste time. A journey of few miles
took all day, or several days. A din
ner involved sitting up all night and
drinking ones self under the table. A
message to friend was not ten
word telegram, but beautifully
penned and excellently expressed es-
say. Such letters were preserved and
handed down. Later they were put In
to print. How many letters have you
written which will be handed down ?
And how would you like to have the
best letter you ever wrote put into
print? Chances are that if you write
more than two pages you apologize
And you sign It, yours hastily"
The men of tho ox-cart days did
things thoroughly and we'll. In the
days of the wireless. we shave no
time. Lynn (Mass.) Item.

Modern Cereal. sunerior.

The wheat and barley of today are
much larger and finer grains than the
wheat and barley which have been
found In ancient Egyptian tombs and
in the buried cities of Greece. As
for rice, which feeds more than one
third of the human race, there are
now number of varieties developed
chiefly by the Japanese) which are
far superior to any that were known
even half a century ago.
All of our grains, excepting maize,
seem to have originated In southern
Asia. Consumption of rice, the great
Aslatic cereal. is now growing rapidly
in the United States. most of our peo-
pie having learned only recently to APP
preciate 1t, and how to prepare 1t for
the table.

Iron ore. Formed by Bacteria.

Biologists are realizing more fully
as they extend their s-udfes the mag
nitude Of the work done by plants and
animals in building up and tearing
down parts of the crust of the earth.
Even microscopic organisms perform
a large part of this work Pasteur
long ago showed us the deadly power
OF bacteria In disease and their eff
cheney in promoting fermentation, but
their influence on the fertility of soils
and their work in eXpediting rock de-
cay are still subjects of scientific
study.

Quaint Industries

Observation of the worlds industri-
ais reveals some very quaint callings
for there are queer habits and strange
desires on the part of various races
and always there are those who cater
to those customs or undertake to sup
ply the wants. As queer a trade or
profession as any is that of "tooth-
stainer," which fOurishes in parts of
Asia, where the natives regard black
teeth as crowDing beauty. The tooth
stainer, equipped with little brushes
and boxes Of col0rlng matter, calls on
his customers at regular intervals. In
general, the operation is not unlike
that of backing a shoe.
