American Lotus.
Nelumbo lutea.

Nelumbo lutea.
~HE sacred lotus OF Egypt Is not
more beautiful than our native
one, but how many have taken
i the trouble to cultivate her. or
even know the many places
she could be seen? We are so rlcn
in lovely water plants that we are
Indifferent to our blessings.
Here is a charming flower that
grows luxuriantly in the Connecticut
River, or in the lakes, slow streams
and ponds of New Jersey; wanders
southwark to Florida and westward
to Michigan and Illinois, and is happy
in Louisiana.
July and August are the blossom
ing time-the most interesting sea-
son to get acquainted with the dainty
water sprite.
The American lotus has a flower
from to 10 inches across. It Is
an exquisite pale yellow, harmonizing
perfectly with its glossy green leaves.
Though it has fewer petals than It's
cousin, the Sweet-scented water lily,
it has her interesting ways.
The flower has a most intriguing
way of insuring seed babies. When
she first opens her petals she expands
the center, to admit the pollen-laden
guests, who know of her secret nectar
we'll. They sip at the fount, leave
the pollen behind and depart. The
lotus closes the portals, and now the
flower that looks out upon the world
is a male. The destructive beetles,
flies and insects that now come to
call must be satisfied with pollen.
The great, round-ribbed leaves are
smooth above and hairy beneath.
Sometimes you see them high above
the water, again floating on its sur
face or immersed beneath 1t. Both
the leaf and flower stalks have several
air canals, and these enable the flower
to get along nicely under water.
When you get a chance, peep under
the great, sheltering roof of the lotus
leaf. Did you ever imagine that
such vast number of eggs could be
fastened under one leaf?" you will
ask yourself. The upper surface OF
the leaf is considered by many frogs
the most perfect raft and spring
board, combined. they have had the
good fortune to find.
1t was the Japanese artist who
taught us the real beauty Of the deco
rative seed vessel Of this plant. If the
lotos should develop her seeds below
the surface, as does the sweet-scented

A little more than two centuries age
Jonathan Swift wrote story Of fancy
about a man who visited such an
island. The island was in the South
Seas, and 1t had the name Of "Lslli-
put"
The book came to be called "Gulli-
ver's Travels" and the story was sup
posed to be told by a ship surgeon
named Gulliver who had been wrecked
off the coast of the island.
Tired after swimming and wadine
ashore, Gulliver lay down to rest
When he awoke, he found that hun
dreds of little men had come to his
side and had bound him to the ground
using stakes and cords.
Gulliver struggled to rise, and man.

fired arrows at him. The arrows were
small, about the size of needles, but
they were as painful as thorns. and
the man decided to lie still. Before
long he was given something to eat
and the little people were filled with
wonder when they saw how much food
he could consume.
A wagon 7 feet long was built. II
had % wheels, and was the greatest
ever known on the island. On this
wagon, pulled by hundreds Of little
horses, Gulliver was taken to the city
where the emperor lived.
For a time Gulliver was chained
by one leg, but when he promised not
to hurt any one, he was set free. He

some distance from the water. The
little nuts are imbedded in the pits on
the surface. Along come the birds

responsible for the wide distribution

The indians, knowing the value OF
the seeds and tubers of the plant for
food, are responsible for the planting
of them in many places. Both seed

How 1t Started
BY JEAN NEWTON.

OUR neighbor as we generally think
~ of the term, is one who resides in
our vicinity. In addition. the word
has taken on a general connotation
of friendliness amounting at times to
affection, as in Pliny the Elders use
of it in the admonition:
Always act in such a way as to
secure the love of your neighbor"
All through the centuries, the word
"neighbor" has had a kindly feeling
akin to a kindred relationship, as in
Leviticus xix, 49,
Love thy neighbor as thyself"
Originally, we have "neighbor" from
the Anglo-Saxon "neah,' meaning
NEAR" and "gebur," meaning farm
er." neahgebur being therefore a
farmer who lived nigh or close by.
In the course of time, the spelling
as well as the meaning of the word
changed and it came to take in, fig
uratively speaking, bordering nations
as we'll as residents on the same street,
while it completely dropped any sense
OF either being nearby farmers!

L Jay carried it to Reddy Fox
over in the Old Pasture.
Hell spoil your hunting over there,
said Sammy maliciously.
That's all right, so long as ne
stays there and doesn't try hunting
in the Old Pasture or on the Green
Meadows" replied Reddy, quite as if
he didn't care what happened in the
Green Forest. But as soon as Sammy
left Reddy. prepared to start for the
Green Forest.
Where are you going?" asked Mrs.
Reddy.
ITO look that fellow up and let him
know ne can't come in and make
himself at home on our hunting
grounds" replied Reddy. He has
no business over there in the Green
Forest, and I for one won't stand for
It, I'm going to tell him so," growled
Reddy
And what are you going to do
about it if he refuses to leave?" asked
Mrs Reddy.
Make him." growled Reddy. Il
hear he isn't as big as you or me, not
nearly as big, SO l guess l can give
him a bit of a scare"
This was idle boasting, for Reddy
knew nothing whatever about Spite
or his ways. But, like so many people
whom We all know, he felt himself
superior to any one smaller than
himself.
Don't be too sure" warned Mrs
Reddy as he started off.
Once in the Green Forest Reddy be-
gan to hunt for Spite with all the
cunning for which the Fox family
is famous. Knowing nothing of
Spite's ways, he was at a loss just
where to look for him and at first
wasted lot of time in that part OF
the Green Forest where there were
no evergreen trees. OF course, he
found no trace of Spite. Then he
went over to where there was a mix
ture of trees with pines and spruces
and hemlocks among the other trees
Almost at once he found the scattered
feathers of a Grouse. He growled
anerily. for he himself had had nc
success in catching Grouse for a
long time.

heard before.
He turned quickly to face a short

was not unlike one of his own half

showed this stranger to be more like
a member of the Weasel family than
the Fox family. Spite the Marten
