The Challenge

Chairman Herbert s. Houston, Of
the International chamber of COM
MERGE, said of world politics at a din
ner at the Century club in New York:
"The militarists Of each power yell
out challenges to one another, but
they are weak challenges after all, for
the militarists know in their hearts
that they haven't got the people be-
hind them any more.
''These absurd challenges remind
me Of Henry Peck.
"'No man alive dare call me hen
pecked,' he shrieked one night over a
near-beer.
"'No? Why not?' laughed the near,
beer drinkers round him.
because If he did, shrieked Peck,
I'd tell my wife on him."

Porto Rican Violet Tree.

In Porto Rico they look for the first
sweet violets Of early spring on trees
instead of under them. In that coun-
try alone, says the American Forestry
association, are to be found violet
trees. These trees tower to sixty
feet, with trunks twelve to fourteen
inches in diameter. They are densely
covered with thousands Of violet-cov-
cred flowers.
But there are only six known living
specimens, because the wood, being
very hard, has been so greatly In de-
mand for use as tool handles, parts of
wheels, axles, OK yokes and other
necessities of the natives, that the
trees have been sacrificed without
thought Of their possible extinction.

Weeping Willow Ancestry

A twig placed in a box of figs which
was sent by a traveller in Syria to
Alexander Pope, English poet, is said
by nurserymen to have been the an
cestor of all the weeping willows in
this country today, reports Better
Homes and Gardens.
The twig, from one of the weeping
willows beside the rivers of Babylon,
was planted by the Thames and be-
came a tree. During the Revolution
airy war, a British officer brought with
him a slip from this tree, which he
gave to John Curtis Of Virginia.
Curtis planted it, and the tree which
grew from it still stands on the Cur
tbs estate and is said to be the first
weeping willow in the United States.

Detects Touah Meat Cuts

To tell just how tough or tender
cut of meat may be, the Department
of Agriculture has devised a simple
tester which is being used extensively
in research to find out why meat from
one animal is more tender or tougher
than that from another.
A knife blade is pulled through
small round pellets of the sample by
means Of a crank, and a scale in the
center Of the apparatus records the
amount Of pressure required to make
the cut.-Popular Science Magazine.

Predicts New Baseball Will In
crease Interest and Attend
ance at Games

Miami, Fla, Feb. 19.-(P-The Ma
tional league, having broken all at
tendance records last season, expects
an even bigger and better pennant
race in 1881, according to President
John Arnold Heydler.
Mr.. and Mrs. Heydler have come to
Miami to spend a vacation.
mot only will the new ball and its
effect on the big hitters serve to in
crease interest this year generally"
said Heydler, but so far as the Ma
tional league is concerned, we look for
a race in which at least six clubs
should lay a decisive part.
II expect teams like Philadelphia
and Boston to continue their sensa-
tional development, especially if the
former team develops several winning
pitchers. Pittsburgh had tough luck
most Of last season and is always dam
gerous. Cincinnati still is in the re-
construction age.
year, Brooklyn has tremendous posi-
bilities. The Cubs can be counted on
for a great fight under Hornsby. st.
Louis has shown what it can do by
winning three pennants in five years,
and the Giants are strengthened for
what should be a sensational contest.
Baseball as a whole is coming
through the period of business slump
very well. Like everything else, how
ever, 1t has had to face the facts and
take steps to keep public confidence
and support"
