EQUAL TO ALL EMERGENCIES
Little Thing Like the Running Out Of
OIL for His Engine Easily over
como by Traveller.

How we all enjoy stories with re.
sourceful hero! No cornered hero of
romance ever showed more ingenuity
than Mr.. Roy Chapman Andrews
showed when he ran out Of motor oil
on the Cobb desert. We quote Mr..
Andrews exploit as he narrates it in
Natural History:
We were returning to Kalgan from
Urga, the capital Of Mongolia, when
we made our discovery. Since the
oil had all leaked out Of the cans, and
we could not go much farther, we
were debating what to do. Then as our
car swung over the summit Of rise
we saw the white tent and the graz
ing camels Of an enormous caravan.
Of course Mongols would have mutton
fat; why not use that for oil?
The caravan leader assured us that
he had plenty, and In ten minutes a
great pot Of fat was warming over
the fire. We poured it into the motor
and proceeded merrily on our way, but
there was one serious obstacle to our
enjoying that ride We had had little
food for some time and were very
hungry, and when the engine began
to warm most tantalizing odor Of
roast lamb rose from the car. Short
~ imagined that I could even smell
mint sauce.
On another occasion when we were
without cup grease for the cars Mrs.
Andrews sacrificed all the cold cream
and vaseline that she had prepared
for summer in the field. We also
substituted Mongol cheese with good
results.-Youth's Companion.

FIRST AMERICAN GOLD COINS
Circulation In the Year 1892
Bird as a Symbol.

The first American gold coinage Of
eagles, half-eagles and quarter-eagles,
of the value Of $40, IS and $3.50, re-
spectively, was placed in circulation
in 1892. Since that date the United
States minis have turned out 117,629,-
365 double eagles, or $50 gold pieces;
1851, 2s9 eagles, 74,36o570 half-eagles
and 15,5S0,205 quarter-eagles. One
and three-dollar gold pieces were for
merly coined, but they were discon-
tinued in 1890.
The first coin called an eagle was
used In Ireland in the Thirteenth GEN.
fury, and was so called from the fig
ure Of an eagle impressed upon it, but
1t was made Of base metal. The stand
ard Of the eagle was borne by the an
cient Persians, and the Romans also
carried gold and silver eagles as en-
signs and sometimes represented them
with a thunderbolt in their talons.
Charlemagne adopted the double
headed eagle as the standard of the
holy Roman empire. The eagle was
the standard Of Napoleon l and Ma
poleon III, as well as Austria, Prussia
and Russia.

CONTROL APPLE SCAB

Apple scab is the disease that
has destroyed a large proportion
of the apples in certain sections
of Virg mia the last year or two !;
it is the disease that caused a
great detoliation of the apple
trees last summer it is the dis
ease that is perhaps the har dest
TO control in Virginia or hards.
Scab infection may take place
at any time after the green tips Of
the leaves are we'll exposed until
the warm, dry weather of the sum-
mer is at hand.
The secret of control lies in
<eeplng the susceptible parts,
such as leaves, bloom and fruit,
covered with a good fungicide
during the susceptible pc Tod.
In badly scab injected orchards
1t is recommended that four
sprays be applied to control this
disease. The first is applied
when the green tips Of the leaves
are exposed delayed dormant
spray), the second one when the
itult buds have burst apart aud
the individual blossoms can be
Seen III the bud but before any Of
the blossoms have opened, and
the third is the calyx spray which
is universally applied and lastly
the fourth which is to be applied
two weeks after the petals fall.
Five quarts of 3 degree COM
centrated lime sulfur combined
with l pound powdered lead ar
senate to each so gallons of water
should be used in each of these
applications.
In addition to controlling scab,
this treatment will be all that is
necessary to control tent cater
pillar, the early codlin-moth
sprays and frog-eye leaf spot.
None OF these SPRAYS should be
omitted in badly diseased Of
chards, and the last three should
be used in all orchards that are
susceptible to scab. York and
Grimes orchards that have had
no scab need not receive either
the first or second spray men
toned, unless scab has been pres.
ent, or there is a desire to apply
the delayed dormant spray com
blned with Black Leaf 40 to con-
troll plant lice.

Starboard and Port,

The ancient rule of the road was
to keep to the right and drive from
the left, because the first animals
driven in civilized countries were cat
tie and the driver, walking beside his
oxen, piled his CAD with the right hand.
Italian sailors made starboard the
right side of ship in their earliest
voyages. The term was evolved by
the British from "esta borde," mean
ing this SIDE while larboard came from
the helmsman, first probably with
gestures Of the hand accompanying
the call.
In heavy weather, and under other
adverse conditions. the two terms be-
came COMPOUNDED frequently in speech.
Larboard was dropped and in its place
port was employed, for port meant
port wine, which is red. and red is the
color of the light on that side of the
ship.

An Easy Problem.

"May She Invite Him Into the
House? asks an advertisement for the
Book Of Etiquette; and explains the
illustration thus: They have Just re-
turned from a dance 1t is rather late,
but the folks are still up. Should she
invite him into the house or say good
night to him at the door? Should he
ask permission to go into the house
with her? Should she ask him to cali
at some other time?" One answer
crowds upon another's heels, so fast
they follow. First, we shouldn't take
seriously the laws Of etiquette laid
down by anybody who, speaking Of
the not-yet-retired parents, says the
folks are still up What sort Of
girl has folks? Dear, dear! not to
say File, fie! Second. if it's the kind
of dance now current the folks
wouldn't be still up they'd be up al
ready. And as to what she should do,
no book ever published can help her.
The questions are all local issues, de-
pending on her and him. Our solution
is that she should ask him in to break
fast.-New York World.

Mystery Explained.

In Lake Manitoba there Is a little
island from which issues a mysterious
sound. The Indians supposed this is
land to be the home of Manitoba, the
speaking god, and from this is derived
the name Of the lake and the province.
The real cause of the sound is the
beating of the waves upon the huge
pebbles lining the shore. On the north
ern coast Of the island Is long low
cliff. composed of fine-grained lime.
stone, which, beneath the stroke Of a
hammer. rings like steel. The waves
breaking at the foot Of the cliff CAUSE
the falling limestone fragments to
clash one against the other, and thu
sound thus produced resembles tho
Ginning Of distant bells.
