Legend Shows Indians’ ~ High Sense of Humor A stoic he may have heen but in many of the bardships that made him stoical the Awmerican Indian displayed a humorous appreciation of the desperaté sitnation that ranked him with the bHest of all philesophers—those who ean and do laugh at life. Witness his derend of the naming of Tusquittes Bald, a mountain in western- North Carolina. , Long, loug ago a great drought seared the very heart of summer iu the ‘Am’;:!i:\f:hi;m coiniry, many moun--lain stremns drying up so. that large cinbers ©f fsh and animals perished. Gme day a nunter. throat parched, but canty in seeking a deep-water fole whore (here might be sustenance Lis wrrows could obtain, heard strange voices neurby. Stepping in that dicection, he discovered it was two wator dozs. They were walking about o their hind legs on®the dry bottom 0 their pond and discussing the Hought, | One of them said. to the other, “Where is the water? [am so thirsty that my apron (weaning his gills, presumably) hangs down almost to the cround and 1 fear I shall tread upen it @ o .

Firefly’s Tail Light -~ Diffuses Little Heat The fireflies, or “lightning bugs,” which dance in the twilight, carry torches that burn on the same principle as a lighted candle. That is to say, they combine a combustible subsfance with oxyeen and produce light. The great advantage enjoyed by ' the firefly is that his tail light makes so little heat; it can falrly be cualled “eold light.” | The substanee consumed to produce. the firefly’s light is luciferin.: The shinlng of fireflies, and of other animals and plants, used to be called phosphorescence, because it looks like the lizht given off by a piece of rubbed phosphorus in the dark. | "But it is not caused by phosphorus. Luciferin really means “light-bearer.” By itself it does not glow; but_a| second substance known as- luciferase, present in ali luminous organisms, causes it to combine with oxygen, and this makes the luminescence. Watermelon Long Known - - According to Master Graves, the watermelon abounded in Massachusetts in 1629, only nine years after the landing of the Pilgrims. The Indians lost little time adding it te' their Fst of cultivated plants. In 1664 the Florida tribes were cultivating it in their fields of maize. and nine years later Father Marquette found among the western tribes melons “which are excellent, especially those with a red seed.” The tribes on-the Celorado river were cultivating watermelons before the death of George Washington. It is easy to see how the watermelon spread so quickly to all parts of the American continent, because the seeds can easily be carried from place to place and planted, and becauge the Indlans showed a fondness for the fruit from the beginning.

- The Installment Age " All the morning the teacher had been trying to teach her. very small pupils the mysteries of simple addition. L One small boy seemed far behind the others at grasping even the simplest of ideas, and with him the harassed teacher spent quite ,a lot of time. . A “Look here, Leonard!” she began for the fifth time. “Let's suppose your father saves—ss—every week for four weeks. What will he have.at the end of that time?’ - L.eonard had his answer ready. “A graphophone, a new suit, a wireless set and new furniture for the house,” he replied proudly. « Wife “Raises” Husband ‘Wives are able to supervise the raising of their own husbands In China, according to Capper’s Weekly. It is not uncommon, says the paper, for a Chinese boy of twelve to be married to a woman of fwenty or twen-ty-five. Usually she is selected by the bridegroom’s mother, who then uses her daughter-in-law for a household assistant. If her-husband’s mother dies, the wife then assists her father-in-law in bringing up the boy in a way that will turn him into a mode! husband.

Growth of Trees " The tree you set up at Christmas time and decorate with all sorts of ornaments, takes from six to ten years to grow, according to the American Tree ' association. Norway red-and-white spruce and balsam fir are best for this purpose. The best trees for posts, the locust aud oak, are grown in from twelve-to twenty years. Twen-ty-five to thirty years-are reguired to produce telegraph and telephone poles. —Popular .Science Monthly. =~ ‘ ‘.

‘Pumice Stone Used as Substitute for Razor * If your razor is used by the wife to ‘sharpen a-pencil or by a young hopeiful for u screw-driver, use pumice ‘Btone to shave yourself with, © . Samuel Pepys used pumice stone. ,Writing on Sunday, May 25, 1662, the idiavist says: “To trimming myself, f\\‘hiq:h'l this week have done ‘every rmorning, with a pumice stone, which I flearnt of Mr. Marsh, when I was last :at Portsmouth; and I shall continue ‘the practice of it.” Six days later he itells us: %1 cut off all my beard, which . 1 have been a great while ‘bringing up only that I may with my jpumice stone do my whole face, as [ inow do iy chin, d@nd to save time, ?{which I find® a very easy.svay and gen‘tle.” The Arabs of Palestine often use pumice stone to “clean up” after ';shuving with pieces of hroken glass ibottles. : : : Sing Sing :
