On hotel veranda at a seaside re-
sort a visitor approached. in the dark,
the spot where a beautiful girl with
golden hair and melting baby-blue
eyes was sitting with an adoring
youth.
AS he neared the pair the new
conner heard her say: "AreD't the
stars beautiful tonight? / love to sit
and look at the stars on a night like
this and think about science. Science
is so interesting, so wonderful; don't
you think SO? Now, take astronomy,
Astronomers are such marvellous
menl / can understand how they have
been able to estimate the distance to
the moon and to all the other planets
and the size Of the sun and how East
It travels, but how, do you suppose,
they ever found out the right Games
of all those stars?"

Queen Louer Of Cherries

The rich and rudy cherries for
which England Is famous, were In
troduced into that country from Flan-
iers In the year 1910. The establish
ment Of their popularity was due in
no small measure to Queen Elizabeth
who had a great liking for cherries
ripe. Whereby hangs the tale OF Sir
Francis Carew, who delayed the ripen-
Ing of his cherry tree until a month
after the end of the season In order
that the cherries might attain matur-
ity when her majesty stayed with
him. This ne accomplished by erect
ing tent over the tree. and on the
queens arrival the fruit was at per-
lection.
