Mother Had to Wait far “Engagement” Ring I /carried a young man not greatly blessed with -worldly goods, says • writer In the Washington Star. It taxed his financial resources to the uttermost to start even our modest housekeeping, so our engagement was not sealed with the customary ring, although 1 did have a small wedding During our early married life we had to work and plan to make Just a poor living for our three little girls, for although John’s salary lncrwsed, so did living expenses, and luxuries were unknown. Soon after our eldest daughter became engaged, John made quite a sum of money on a business deal. One evening he came home with an expensive'* looking ring box, and, opening It, showed us a beautiful diamond ring. We all supposed it to be an engagement present for daughter. She looked coriiplacent, while the younger girls were frankly envious. My heart fluttered when John interrupted \vith: "Here, wait a minute. That’s mother’s engagement ring. Goodness knows she’s waited long enough for it, but now's the first time I’ve been able to afford the kind she deserves.” Ancient Pleasure Spot At Scarborough, known throughout Great Britain as the “Queen of Watering Places," after 200 years of service, the once popular mineral springs, have been closed. Scarborough has long been a place of recreution. The min eral springs are said to have been discovered in 1620, and, towards the end of that century, the place was becoming fashionable, and a building was erected over the springs. Then came the earthquake, following which the springs were lost for some years, but they were found again, and the place was a great resort of fashion in the Eighteenth century. In 1777, for Instance, Sheridan could take Lord Foppington and the rest on a trip to Scarborough, to taste the “noise and folly of the place;" Animal Life on Everett Animal life, It appears, Is to be found on high mountains far beyond plant growth. The highest growing plant that the Mount Everest expedition of 1924 observed was the blue vetch, at 18,000 feet, but animals live at as great a height as 22,000 feet. “A minute and Inconspicuous black spider,” says a member of the expedition, “hops about on rocky cliffs and hides beneath stones In those bare places that happen to be swept clear of snow by the wind. I cannot think on what it lives at such a height. In these altitudes there Is no other living thing—nothing but rock and Ice.” This little spider Is wqrthy of note as being (the highest permanent Inhabitant of the earth.

Soy Bean Excellent Food Food specialists after traveling through the Old world report they find that millions of people In China, Japan und other countries in Asia depend on the soy bean for food and find It contains many of the qualities found in meat, men being able to work hard, even in the heaviest of toll, when supplied with plenty of soy bean bread or mush, or the various forms In which It is served when cooked as a vegetable: But In many places the people use It as meal and make bread or cakes from It that are as dependable and important as corn cakes for food, and they can prepare It so it resembles cheese when It Is mixed with’ sour milk and finished for food. Story of Tragedy Mr. Asker—What happened to that fellow Bjones? Only a short time' ago he had a wonderful head of hair but when I saw him the othfer day his head was as bare as a billiard ball. Mr. Teller—Why, didn’t you hear? He gut-hold of a bottle of "depilatory”, which his wife used to remove superfluous hair, and doused his head with It, thinking It was bay rum. Causes of Tides ' Tides are caused by the gravitation al pull of the sun and moon upon the water. The moon, being so much closer, Is the principal cause of the tides.
