GRASS GROWS ON BROADWAY
Fine Plot Flourlshes Under Thousands
Of Feet In the Metropolis
Of the Nation.

There might be some towns where
1t would be difficult, but New Workers
find 1t easy to hustle and yet let the
grass grow under their feet. II Is be-
Ing done at least In one place In New
York, near Broadway and Leonard
street, remarks the New York Sun. At
this point Is a small drainage grating
set into the sidewalk. Dust and dirt
have settled In 1t almost to the level
of the sidewalk, and In that little plot,
less than two feet square, grass grows
luxuriantly.
This is not ordinary mongrel grass
that, like Topsy, "just growed." A
truck driver working for a cotton
goods house in the neighborhood, with
a leaning toward agriculture decided
the soil under the grating would be
fertile, and hit upon the Idea of
grass plot He purchased the seed
adapted to the soil.
Next came the preparation of the
ground. With a table knife borrowed
from a restaurant the truck driver
spaded the diminutive plot and plant
ed his seeds. Soon the first green ap-
peared. It has kept on growing stead
lily. II Is true that the blades never
get chance to climb above the top of
the grating, because they are kept
worn down by hundreds of passing
feet, but below there is fine growth
Of rich, green grass.

Microbes That Defy Death.

Though some microbes are very
tough and can stand great extremes Of
heat and cold, the majority of them
are easily killed If the right methods
are used. But what puzzled scientists
for many years was that KILLED" mi
crobes seemed to be able to come alive
agalnl
You could kill them as dead as door
nails, but in very short space of
time they would reappear in swarms
and as lively as crickets.
Then a discovery was made. 1t was
found that many microbes breed by
means Of seeds or spores. which are
almost indestructible, save by fire.
Experiments made with spores show
that they do not in the least mind un-
dergoing temperature Of 400 degrees
below freezIng-point for many hours
Nor does 1t hurt them to be boiled
That is why such a disease as an
thrax, the microbes of which produce
spores, is so extremely difficult to
stamp Out-no ordinary means of dis
infection is Of the slightest use.

Never In Palra.

Badgers are rarely seen out of their
burrows in the daytime, and this is the
reason that, travelling over the west.
ern plains, one so seldom sees badg-
er. although their burrows are very
numerous and every indication exists
of the presence of these animals, says
the American Forestry Magazine, They
chiefly come forth at night; and 1t is
the rarest thing to find pair together
For some reason or other, the sexes

GYPSIES REMAIN A PUZZLE
BY Many, the Familiar Wanderers Are
Believed to Have Originally
Come From India.

The word gypsy is contraction of
Egyptian. When the nomads appeared
In the British isles, many centuries
ago, their leaders called themselves
''earls' folk. Only about 100000 in
number, the Balkan states and south
Russia have most of them, but there
are many in Egypt and among the
Moors on the coasts Of North Africa.
Who are they? To that question
historians, anthropologists and just
plain, curious people have tried to find
an answer without success. Many be-
lieve that they are descendants of the
lost ten tribes of Israeli still others
think they are the children Of Ham con-
demned to perpetual wanderings. They
have been considered Spaniards, As
syrlans and Egyptians, though they
are different in body and mind from
all Of these.
The opinion generally held is that
they are Hindus. They have the dark
complexion, the same thin lips,
straight and proportionate nose, bril-
liant eyes and white teeth of the Hin
dus. Their language, such of 1t that
is not gypsy adaptation Of the Ian
guage of the people they live among,
shows similarity to Hindu dialects.
Besides, their habits and customs link
them with the fortune telling, mysti-
cal habits of India.
