BEYOND ALL MEED OF PRAISE
Impassible to Form Ward* That WUI De Ivwi MmpU American Mothers. Just before the war the “cellar mother” was spoken of with understanding (in America), if not with laughing sympathy—the woman who decoyed husband and sons into the cellar, and then sat on the door, resolved that ne mankind of hers should in such a fool business as war! Many of the mothers who so spoke had made the schoolmaster’s life a burden by their nervous telephoning when Ned or Harry went to school; yet when tho country demanded it and their boys war* ten years dearth-, they gave them * the war without a sign es anything but pride, L»cy H. M. Boel shy writes in the Atlantic. They had never been trained, like MkgUsh mothers, to live through ordinary life with a boy in danger on some frontier firing line; but they learndd heroism and nerve when the need same. _. - The American mother learned dally seif-denial, too; the most extravagant ofjaatlons learned thrift in food conservation ; and the most set in her ways of any woman on earth, the New England house mother, altered those ways In that most unalterable part of her house, the kitchen, where everything had been “thus and so" for generations. And this thrift and adaptability were not drawn out of her by the needs of her own men, but by a quick imaginative sympathy, which bridged 3,000 miles of ocean and felt, with all Sir Philip Sidney’s chivalry, for the stranger of alien race, “whose necessity was greater than hers."
SOON WILL BE OF THE PAST
Georgia Wild Cows Seem to Have Served Their Purpose, and Are Feet Disappearing. The plney woods cow, long a chum of the rasorbkek hog, is fading from the Georgia landscape. It is a poignant thought. She is one of the last links that binds Georgia to the paaL Thousands of her roamed over the great plantations that would now be condemned as undemocratic. She was usually rod and white—a “pidod" cow —inclined to have a poor figure, humpbacked and somewhat knockkneed, and her eyes were closely situated, in the manner which psychologists shake their heads over, because it indicates the criminal bent. But upon the plney woods cow Georgia in the old days depended entirely for milk and butter. Many planters had hundreds of them, but they all ran wild, and one of the spring sports was to round them up and mark them. If a choice specimen should be captured, she was hard to feed, being unaccustomed te civilized fodder, for plney woods cows eat grass in summer and souse their heads up to the eyes in ponds in the winter, looking for water gram and moss. They always have a forlorn air. Many of. them still dwell on the islands of Banks’ mill pond, which covers thousands of acres, and butchers of Valdosta hunt them with horses and dogs.—New York Post.
“Do you remember how we used to Mold Josh about oversleeping before he went Into the army?’ said Mrs. Corntossel. *!"*•,” replied B|e farmer; “that’s why we can’t say-a word when ho gets ,*9 at daybreak and accompanies tho Masters eta his cornet."
Monkey as Labor Possibility.
The pig-tailed macaque or brok of the Malays is a highly intelligent animal. and the Malays train them to pick coconuts. The modus operand! to described by R. W. C. Shelford la “A Naturalist tn Borneo." A eord is fastened round the monkey’s waist and it to led to the coconut palm, which it rapidly elimbs. It then lays hold of a nut, and ts the owner judges the fruit to be ripe for plucking he shouts to the monkey, which then twists the nut round and round till the stalk to broken and lets it fall to the ground. If the monkey catches hold of an unripe fruit the owner tags the eord and the monkey tries another. I have seen a brok net as a very efficient fruitpicker, although the use of the cord was dispensed with altogether, 4he monkey being guided by the tones and inflections of his master’s voice.

PAYING HOMAGE TO DEVILS
Recognized Method by Which Chines* Insure Against Dire Work of \ Evil Soirits. ■~” r • Once a year during the first 14 days of the "seventh Chinese month, tire curious ceremony of Yu-Nan-Whel is celebrated, being, in. fact, the paying of, homage to the land and sea devils, says New York Herald. Seven priests carry out the ceremony by offering up various forms of prayer and making an unearthly noise by beating large gongs. Anyone wishing to show his respect to the devils can do so by a payment of t!00 cash-—about 22 cents —to each of the priests, for which amount they will continue their performance for 12 hours —a truly modest remuneration for men engaged in the ardent occupation of propitiating evil spirits. For an extra payment of 2,000 cash a number of small red paper boats, about six inches long, with lights inside, will be sent floating down the river with the current. These lights are for the benefit of the sea devils, in order that they may be able to see their way about on dark nights—a little attention which It is hoped these maritime demons appreciate. Having finished this performance, tjje person on whose behalf it has bean carried out goes away happy in the conviction that he will not lose any of his family throughout the year, either by sickness or drowning, so that the whole ceremony may be looked upon as an insurance policy.
CRADLES OF GREAT EDITORS
Many Editorial Giants Got Their Early Training on Village Newspapers , of New England. The old New England village newspapers nourished a race of journalistic giants. It was from a little Connecticut office, that of the Connecticut Mirror, that a keen Yankee, named George D. Prentice, went forth to prepare the way for that great light of Southern journalism, Henry Watterson. The dingy little printing shops of Vermont trained in the service of the types many men who afterward became eminent in metropolitan and western journalism. But the case of Greeley was an epic in itself. -No more uncouth and miserable little wretch ever sought employment. But he brightened up the Northern Spectator with his youthful writings, which were then, as ever after, his very own, and not mere imitation Addisonianisms. From the shop in East Poultney he went forth to an illustrious career; and, whether it liked him or not, the country had to listen to him. His brain not infrequently —sp his countrymen would now express it —slipped a cog. There were strange lapses in his intellectual and moral achievement, but none in his honesty or his good will toward his fellow countrymen.
Eucalyptus-Oil Industry.
The pioneer of the Australian eu-calyptus-oil industry was John White, “Surgeon General to the Settlement,’* who came to Sydney with the first fleet, says the Sydney Bulletin. The following passage occurs in his “Journal of a Voyage to New South Wales,” published in London in 1790: The name of peppermint tree has been given to this plant by Mr. White on account of the very great blance between the essential oil drawn from its leaves and that obtained from the peppermint (Mentha piperita") which grows in England. This oil was found by Mr. White to be much more efficacious in removing all cholicky complaints than that of the English peppermint, which he attrib 1 utes to its being less pungent and more aromatic. White not only used the oil in N. S. Wales, but sent some to England. He got it from a tree which he called Eucalyptus piperita, but which was afterwards renamed E. capitellate.
Red Light Aids Plants.
The attention of botanists has lately been recalled to experiments made at Jpvisy, near Paris-, by M. Flammarlon on the effect of expoiflbg the seedlings of sensitive plants to lights of different colors. Having placed four pairs of mimosa seedlings In four separate pots In a hothouse, he covered one pair with a bell of blue glass, another with a bell of green glass, a third with a bell of red glass, while the fourth was exposed to ordinary white light. At the end of two months the plants subjected to blue light were only one inch high, having hardly grown at alt Those exposed to white light wfere four inches high, that had grown In green light were five Inches high, while those whose light had been red were no less than 16 inches high. Experiments with other kinds of plants gave various results, but In every instance blue light impeded growth and development.
“Bookies” on Strike.
“No Betting Today” was the amazing notice Issued on a famous racecourse shortly before the war. The "bookies” had gone on strike, says, a writer in London Answers. The stewards had relegated them to a new position at the aides of the approach to the grandstand and the complaint was that there was not room for the number of pencllers, and also insufficient - accommodation for 'the public who wished to “put a hit on.” The bookies took up a position of their own from which the police tried to eject them. Finally a compromise was effected and the bookies were happy again.
