It was Hobart brakes unbro-
ken costume of years to return
home imm ediately after the mar
ket closed at noon on Saturdays,
but on the day following that of
the arrival of the gardener,
lunch time came and passed and
he did not appear nor did any
word come from him.
t.There is a station taxi coming
down the road and-yes, Hobart
is inside!', exclaimed Miss Drake
when tea was served.
When Miles reached the library
door once more the measured
tones Of Hobart Drake came dis
tfnctly to his ears.

details to attend to In settling up
my affairs"

It was still comparatively early
when Miles was free to join Scott!e.
There's only one new angle to
consider" Scottie remarked at last
.""That is Andrews attitude in the
matter. He's not thinking Of the
fresh gossip. It may be that he has
made a good bit of money through
Hobart's inside tips in the market
and doesn't want to lose the graft.

EMOTIONS VERY MUCH AKIN
Both Laughter and Weeping Sudden
Motions With Which Custom 10
Bound to Do Away.

Sudden glory is the passion which
maketh those grimaces called laugh
ter; and is caused either by some sud
den act Of their own that pleaseth
them, or by the apprehension of some
deformed thing in another by compari-
son whereof they suddenly applaud
themselves. And it is incident most
to them that are conscious of the few
est abilities in themselves; who are
forced to keep themselves in their
own favor by observing the imperfec
tions of other men. And therefore
much laughter at the defects of others
Is sign of puSillanimity. For of
great minds one of the proper works
Is to help and free others from scorn
and compare themselves only with the
most able.
On the contrary, sudden detection Is
the passion that causeth weeping, and
Is caused by such accidents as sudden.
ly take away some vehement hope or
some prop of their power; and they
are most subject to it that rely prin-
cipally on helps external, such as are
women and children Therefore some
weep for the loss of friends, others for
their unkindness, others for the sudden
stop made to their thoughts of revenge
by reconciliation. But in all eases, both
laughter and weeping are sudden mo-
tions, custom taking them both away
For no man laughs at old jests or
weeps for an old calamity.-Hoboes

Puss Puts Two and Two Together.

This account of II eat remarkable
to Il friend of the Companion by ii
minister whose word, one correspond
ent remarks, is of course not to be
questioned.
When Mr.. ana Mrs. M were
about 10 move to California they left
their cat with some friends who were
living in II suburb perhaps two miles
from the eastern side Of their home
city. After I'M absence Of IS months
they returned and spent two weeks
with their friends. Though the eat
remembered them, 1t appeared to be
content with its owners; So when Mr.
and Mrs NJ went To live in ii new
house in the northeastern part of the
city they left the eat behind. A few
days later it was missing from its
tome in the suburb for the first time
since it had gone there to live; and
three days later friends notified Mrs
Nj that her cat was at her first
home in the extreme western part of
the city.
Apparently puSS had reasoned that
its former owners had returned to
their old home; so it FASTENED there,
travelling either through or round Il
busy city il distance of fully three
miles. Mrs. Nj Went and got the
cat at once and carried it To the new
home, where it now lives contented.-

LIVE THOUSANDS OF YEARS
Idea That Some Trees Are Immortal
Has Been Graveiy Asserted by
Many Naturalists.

The idea of IMMORTALITY in trees ia
often met with in the works of the
nncients. observes writer in the New
York Sun. The historian, Josephus,
In his Jewish War" relates that in
his day there was near the city of
Elbron turpentine tree which was
as old as the days of Adam.
1t was reserved for modern natural
lists to show that these assertions,
however extraordinary they may ap-
pear, are still correct, and that many
Of our trees In some sort indestruct-
iole may have seen the rnal scene Of
creation and, after Drawing the action
of so many ages. are still upright
and living to this day.
1t is now over hundred years since
Adanson, by ingenious calculations
showed the learned that such IDEAS
though extraordinary, are yet facts of
the most scrupulous eXactitude. This
naturalist by n happy chance found in
the Interior of the trunk of the baObab
in one of the Cape Verde islands an
Inscription which had been traced on
Ii by the English 300 years previously.
Starting from this point and compar-
Ing the diameterS of the stems of
many of these bulky trees, the French
SdNant succeeded in proving that the
most vigorous of these primitive in
habitants of the African forests might
be at least 5000 years old.

Differing Tea Tastes.

Russians drink tea. not with the ad-
dition of milk as we do, but with lemon
juice squeezed in, While in Germany
tea is often Favored with cinnamon and
rum.
Perhaps the quaintest form of tea
drinking Is that practiced by the saw
age triles in Tartury, Central Asia.
The leaves are first boiled in soda, then
seasoned with butter and salt, and then
eaten.
Many people think that tea taken
late ut night produces sleeplessneSs. Il
does, but if ii slice of lemon is added
Instead of milk, it will induce sleep.
In cases Of fever, tea taken with lemon
and little sugar, and, Of course, no
milk, IS very refreshing.
A very common error is the belief
that by adding = pinch Of carbonate
Of soda, a stronger taste can be OBJ
t9ined. This is not SO. carbonate of
soda being only useful when the water
is hard. \ pinch of salt is invaluable
for giving flavor at all times.
