Plant Societies,

1t appears that the knowledge OF
botany has been greatly advanced by
the development of what may be
called the sociology of plants, that Is,
the study of their relations to one an.
other, as well as their adjustments to
surroundings. B0tanists recognize that
plants are not scattered haphnzarl
over the globe, but are organized lnto
definite communities. A pond has It's
plant society, all the members Of
which fall into their proper places.
A swamp.fOrest consists of trees pos.
sessing certain social relationship,
and differing from those that form y
forest OH dry land. There is progress;
sion from one SOCIAL organizations OF
plants to another. 4 lily.pond may
give place to Il swamp-moor, this to a
society OF swamp shrubs, and thiA.
again, to u swalnp.f0rest of tamarack,
pine and hemlock. So societies Of
plants on dry lands succeed one an.
other as the conditions change.

Dreams
According to an Indian myth:

HNCOl0tutS wv oi AAb0tdh VIE
If a man dreams that a strange
woman with child on her back
comes and sits on his foot, it means
that his wife's delight in him is
growing cold. not being yet secure
by proper mind-union, for the rea-
son that his wife, unconsciously per
haps. is jealous Of her own sister or
some near relative.
If women continually dreams
OF terrible pains in her lower limbs
it means that she, unconsciously
perhaps, .is in love with her sisters
husband.
A departed sister sometimes gives
to a surviving sister who has mar
ried her husband, since her depar.
ture, severe pains in her lower limbs,
if she was not entirely and heartily
true to her, previous to her death.
Dreaming of a white owl means
the soon death of some old person

Cause Of Volcanic Explosions.

Volcanic explosions are commonly
regarded as the release of stores Of
energy kept confined by external
pressure, and boiled explosions and
geyser eruptlons are typical Of this
class OF outbreaks. An expert Of the
United States geophysical laboratory
finds that another class Of explosions,
that Of explosive mixtures like gun
powder, are not likely to occur in
volcanoes. But q third class, that of
explosive compounds brought into CON
tact with oxygen or water, Ii more
probably the usual source Of volcanic
explosions, and is illustrated by alumi.
mum sesquioxide - finely divided -
brought into such relation with water
in the electric furnace that mechanical
defamation causes violent explosion.
The dust Of Mont Pelee may have been
analogous to the aluminium sesquiox-
ide.

WAVES Of GIGANTIC HEIGHT
Thousands Of Tons Of Water Not In.
frequently Poured Upon Decks
Of Ocean Vessels.

Even in stormy weather the average
height of waves in mid-ocean does not
us rule exceed 80 or 40 feet. Some
times, however, one enormous wave
makes it's appearance amidst the rest.
Why this should happen no one can
say. All we know is that mighty
mass Of water rushes suddenly toward
q ship at the appalling speed Of over
100 miles an hour.
If the ship can meet such wave
with her bows she will ride over IT.,
though thousands of tons Of water
may sweep over her decks. But II
the wave Is following her and PUSHES
at her from the stern, she may fail
to rise. Many good ship has gone
to her doom in this way.
These vast mountains Of water rise
sometimes to a height Of more than
u hundred feet-as high us the spire
Of church. They have been known
to extinguish the masthead lights of
sailing ships. 3
Sometimes on ii perfectly calm day
there will be Il sudden troubling of the
surface Of the sea, and without the
slightest warning q wave $50 feet
high will appear.

PERFECT DIME-NovEL HERO
Thomas stuksly Peer Of Any Of the
Adventures Who Fiourished
Under Good Queen eess.

A career so lurid and impregnated
with dime novel atmosphere has
scarcely ever been seen outside the
covers of the penny dreadfuls as fell
to the lot of Thomas Stukely as 1t ran
the gamut from matrimOny to piracy,
interspersed with dashing, gallant and
fearless bravery which has caused his
name to be remembered when many a
better man has sunk to oblivion. Stuke-
~ was an adventurer by nature. His
mother was Irish and of very
good family, and 1t is said that he
could claim MS his father Henry VIII
of England. Stukely acquired q
great fortune by marrying a lady Of
wealth and proceeded Immediately to
spend 1t with the greatest dispatch.
Sir Walter Scott says that gallant ruff
fed it with Raleigh and the best Of
them at the court Of Queen Eliza
beth. His first chimerical scheme was
to found n kingdom for himself In
Florida. Then he went to Ireland and
gained considerable influence over
Shane O'Neill, the most powerful of
the native chieftains. helping him to
gain decisive battle. Stukely never
gave up his career as merchant and
still retained ships which, under the
guise of peaceful traders, committed in
famous piracies. On being discov-
cred he went to Spain as grandee
and thence to Rome. At the great
naval battle of Lepanto he commanded
one Of the papal ships.-C Chicago

young bride cast aside her husband
for doubtful position ut Versailles.
Louis bought her an estate and from
this she took the name by which she
became f,mous-the Duchess de
Pompadour.
Pompadour was woman Of un-
doubted genius. She paid court to
the literary leaders of her time,
notably Voltaire, and soon became a
power in the realm. This power she
extended by every possible means,
corresponding regularly with gen.
erals in the field, dabbling in affairs
Of state, and finally becoming the un-
crowned queen of France.
For years French policy had been
to oppose Austria by alliances with
the German states. Because Fred
erick the Great wrote scurrilous
verses about Pompadour she swore
to be avenged, and when Maria
Theresa of Austria wrote her q
friendly letter, she upset Frances
national policy overnight, forming an
alliance with Austria. This brought
on the disastrous Seven Years war
