Lot's Wife Island.
Lot’s Wife, perhaps the strangest island
in the Pacific, is in latitude 29.41 and
longitude 140.22.30 east and is southeast
of the island of Nippar, the largest of the
Japanese group. Meares, the explorer,
ran across it in 1788 and at first mistook it
for a ship. He called it Meares’ rock, but
it had very likely been discovered in ad-
vance of that time by Spanish explorers,
who charted it as Vela rock. The United
States steamer Macedonian passed it in
1854, and she, too, mistook it for a sail.
Its rugged peak rises nearly 300 feet above
the sea, and it can be seen for 25 miles.
There is a great cavern in the base of the
rocky pinnacle, and the sea roars through
it with a voice of thunder. Its diameter
at the water line is about 50 feet, and it
stands as an impressive monument to the
force of nature in convulsion.
MoRE MONEY IN FIVE ACRES.—It is a
significant fact that the possibilities of
close or intensive cultivation of small
areas of land, say five acres, as against the
ordinary cultivation of large tracts, say one
hundred acres, is not realized by farmers
and others. Five acres of garden crops un-
der careful cultivation will yield, every
time, a larger income than one hundred
acres as ordinarily worked. For instance,
in strawberries alone, one-quarter acre
should easily yield 1,000 quarts, which, in
a local market, should fetch 10c. a quart,
or $100. How many acres of wheat off the
farm will it require to bring in the same
returns ? American Gardening, P. O. Box
1697, New York, is offering some wonder-
ful strawberry plants as a premium, and
our readers can obtain sample copy and
full particulars free on application, also

berries, or, How a Poor Boy Became

ground to send for it.

Butterfly Eggs.
Their Marvelous Beauty is Shown by the Micro-
scope.
The traveler in the far East, passing
through stone doorways, scrolled and
carved with Arabesque fretwork, enters the
eastern quarter of old Cairo. The streets
are dingy and narrow, but here rise the
wonderful domes of the famous mosques—
“Tombs of the Mamelukes’’—exquisite in
all grace and fantasy of shape and color.
The fretted sides, a fine and delicate lace-
work of stone, the marvelous and shining
light on beautiful tints, seem like a very
dream of art.
But enter the woods that stretch all
about us, and use the microscope that en-
larges our vision, and lo, a most wonderiul
thing has come to pass! Winged beings,
far more beautiful than the genii of the
‘‘Arabian Nights’’ have been here, and on
the under side of a common leaf, in size,
no larger than a pin’s head, are structures
that fairly rival the mosques of Cairo in
wealth of decoration and loveliness of color
——the butterfly eggs. They are, many of
them dome-shaped like the mosques, and
covered with a rich network, so filmy that
it glitters in sun like a diamond dew, but
each of the lines is a rib, buttressing the
whole structure. Other eggs are shaped
like tiaras or turbans, and others still are
like sea-urchins. Some are shaped like
pyramids, and all lead up in their decora-
tions to a minute rosette at the top, some-
times deeply indented, through whose
openings life is veceived in the egg.
The patterns are often as regular as any
“circular rose-window of a Gothic cathe-
dral,”’ and the colors of the egg, beginning
with a pale-green—the safest of all colors
in the green wood—or white like many
tree-blossoms, change afterwards, as the
dweller inside develops, into all kinds of
brilliant and shining hues, from salmon to
orange. These eggs are sometimes found
single, sometimes in regular rows, one on
top of the other, or strung together like a
necklace of beads, or ‘‘girdling a twig like
a fairy ring.”
There are insects—not butterflies—that
lay eggs in almost incredible numbers, say a
trillion in a season ! These are soft and per-
ishable, and of short life. Where an in-
sect’s eggs have to stand the winter’s cold
they are usually covered, or packed in a
kind of cement. If you look at these mere
specks through a microscope you will see
exquisite shells, clustered like gems or
rolled in tubes, or convoluted in spirals
and circles.
Many eggs are doubly protected, because
they are so fragile, and are placed in still
another shelter, as the eggs of the birds,
pale blue or speckled, or pearly white, in
close woven nests, or the eggs of certain
spiders in silky bells of golden yellow or
purest white, hung among the blossoms.
Yet it is more common to find insect eggs
bare and exposed to view. One day I saw
what had seemed dust grow under a micro-
scope into crystal eggs, on which insect-
forms appeared to be sharply etched as
seen through the transparent case. Then
out skipped some lively black-eyed wood-
folk, independent and alert, ready for a
meal. They seemed fully grown at birth.
Queer Funeral Mistakes in Maine.
There have been queer mistakes made of
all kinds, but this is one of the most un-
usual and undesirable, although no real
harm was done: A man, one time prom-
inent in professional life of this city, died.
He was a member of a certain society in
this city, which sent representatives to the
funeral. The members of the organization
were notified of the death of their fellow
member by postal cards sent out by the
secretary. One of the cards was addressed
to and delivered at the late residence of the
dead member, inviting him to attend his
own ohsequies.
A similar incident was, if anything,
worse. A member of a secret society died
and his fellows were notified of his death
and the time and place of the funeral, as
usual. A card was delivered at the ad-
dress of the dead man, directed to him in
his own handwriting. He had been the
secretary of the organization and had ad-
dressed sets of postal cards to the members
at his leisure. When a member died, a set
of the addressed cards were sent to the
printer, who printed the name of the de-
ceased member on the back with the other
matter used in the notice. So when the
secretary died his assistant or successor sent
a set of the cards to the printer, so that
the dead man was sent one addressed by
his own hand.— Portland Express.
Funerals in Arabia.
One of the strangest and most affecting
sights in an Arab town is that of the funer-
als, which may be met at any street cor-
ner. The body is merely wrapped in a
mat of esparto grass and carried either on
a bier or on men’s shoulders. The mourn-
ers lounge along, some in front and some
behind, crooning verses of the Koran in
melancholy tones, which haunt one for
days afterward. This wailing, however, is
nothing to that which goes on in the house
of the deceased. When I was staying in
the country near Tunis I heard it kept up
during a whole night in a neighboring vil-
lage, and I can conceive nothing more des-
perately depressing than these strains of
lamentation wafted through the darkness
by the breeze. My dog stood it even less
well than I did, and he felt constrained to
join in the doleful chorus until I was half
tempted to put a bullet through his head.
Perhaps the strangest of all the funerals I
saw was at Bizerta. It was that of a baby,
which was being carried to its grave in an
esparto basket.
Misleading Names.
Perhaps the most misleading name on the
map is that of Tierra del Fuego, the ‘‘Land
of Fire.” The name would imply that it
was a land of volcanoes in constant activity.
The fact is, however, that it contains no
volcanoes and is a country of perpetual wet
and cold. It got its name from the fact
that it was sighted by Magellan at night in
consequence of a large fire having been
ignited by the natives on shore. The same
discoverer happened to have very fine
weather after he had rounded the Horn,
and so gave the name ‘‘Pacific’’ to a part
of the ocean which is exceptionally subject
to storms.
Again, Boothia Felix, a peninsula in
arctic America, in which the magnetic pole
is located, is anything but ‘‘happy’’ or
‘‘pleasant,’’ as its name would imply.
was named after Sir Felix Booth, who pro-
vided funds for the expedition which dis-
covered it. In another sense the name of
America is wholly misleading, since it is
derived from that of Amerigo Vespucci,
who did not discover the new world.

Feeding Cows on Pasture.
When the pastures begin to fail it will
be necessary to give the cows some extra
feed. Indeed, it has heen shown to be
profitable to give this extra food even in
the first flush of the grass, for the increased
product not only paid for the extra food,
but the condition of the cows was improved
all through the following winter and into
the next summer. Any animal may ac-
quire a reserve force, so to speak, by which
the system accumulates the material for a
lengthened product during a season of les-
sened supply of food. This extra feeding
on the pasture avoids any draft on this ac-
cumulated reserve, ‘gained through good
feeding during the winter, and prevents
that frequent falling off in condition which
is apt to occur while the cows are in the
flush of milk, while the pastures are fresh.
This has been demonstrated by both
practical feeding ard scientific tests in
which the cows on good pasture have re-
ceived a liberal addition to the grass of
grain food, either simple corn meal or glut-
en meal, or indeed some change even of
green feed, as peas and oats mixed or green
sweet corn with the grain on. It was
found at one of the experiment stations
that this extra feed was not only liberally
paid for during the summer, but its effect
was noticeable during the next winter and
into the following summer. It has been,
and still is, my practice to feed ten pounds
of corn meal daily to my cows while on the
best pasture and to add green cut fodder in
addition when the pastures begin to fail
later in the season. And this better feed-
ing has paid well without exception as re-
gards individual cows. They all respond-
to the stimulus, while the calves of these
cows always improve on their dams in pro-
ductive value.—Orange Judd Farmer.
Hints For Beekeepers.
Thick, well-ripened honey will not gran-
ulate so readily as that which is thin.
Dry and warm is the rule for honey if
you want it to retain its flavor and richness.
Never put it in a cellar.
Uniting colonies will usually be more
successful if you kill the condemned queens
two or three days before uniting.
Narrow bottom causes the bees to build
their combs clear down to the bottom and
attach their combs to them.
Have your new hives ready and the colo-
nies swarming over full when the honey
flow comes. This is where luck comes in.
When returning frames to the hive ad-
just them slowly and carefully. Then no
bees will be pinched or crowded between
the frames.
One of the best places to locate the hives
is in the orchard. There usually they will
be free from annoyances that are likely to
arise when the hives are placed elsewhere.
One person with a very little help can
easily attend to 100 colonies of bees if comb
honey is the product. More help will be
needed if extracted honey is the object.—

SEEDS FOR SMALL CHICKS.—Seeds are
better for young chicks than too much soft
food. There are many seeds that can be
utilized, but which are almost unknown to
some. For very young chicks seeds of mil-
let, rape and hemp are excellent, and as
the chicks become larger sorghum-seed and
buckwheat will be found better than wheat;
but a ration of wheat and cracked corn will
serve well for them as soon as they are
large enough to eat such. If the small
seeds are given the chicks they will feath-
er with less difficulty and thrive better
than when the foods are restricted to grains.
—Farm and Fireside.
BE KIND T0 YOUR HORSE.—On a very
hot day keep a sponge, a towel, or your
handkerchief, soaked with pure cold wa-
ter on the top of your horse’s head.
If your horse’s back is sore use pure cold
water on it freely every time the saddle is
removed.
In hot weather be sure your check-rein
is loose and your horse frequently watered.
In hot weather a mouthful of grass, or
a piece of bread or a cracker will help your
horse wonderfully.
Saved the Doctor’s Bill.
In a Massachusetts seaport town there is
a retired sea captain who makes a frequent
boast that he bas the smartest woman along
shore.” New instances of her enterprise
are constantly coming to notice. The last
one refers to an exploit by which she saved
herself a doctor’s bill. The captain tells
the story with great relish.
‘‘She’s getting pretty heavy.’ he begins,
“and now and again she’ll miss her foot-
ing. Well, not many monthsago she miss-
edit on our stairs and fell all in a heap
down three steps on to her side.
‘When I got to her, she said just as
brisk as usual : ‘Don’t ask me if I’ve hurt
myself, cap’n, for of course I have. I reck-
on I've unjointed a bone in my left leg,
falling on it. Now don’t try to pull me
up. Let me scrabble round a minute and
you go for the doctor.’
‘‘Well, the doctor’s our next neighbor,
so it didn’t take long to get him. He
looked her over and said there was a bone
somewheres round her left hip that was out
of kilter.
‘‘At that mother rose right up on her
feet and toppled over the opposite way
from what she’d fallen down stairs, and we
heard a kind of a crack.
‘‘She looked up at the doctor with her
mouth kind of whitish, but the same old
twinkle in her eyes, and shesays, ‘I believe
I've set that bone myself, doctor.” And
she had !"’— Youth’s Companion.
A Tombstone Problem.
A man who went away from home some
time ago to attend a convention of church
people was struck with the beauty of the
little town in which the gathering was
held. He had plenty of time, and while
wandering about walked into the village
cemetery. It was a beautiful place, and
the delegate walked around among the
graves. He saw a monument, one of the
largest in the cemetery, and read with sur-
prise the inscription on it :
‘‘A Lawyer and an Honest Man.’
The delegate scratched his head and look-
ed at the monument again. He read the
inscription over and over. Then he walk-
all around the monument and examined
the grave closely. Another man in the
cemetery approached and asked him :
‘‘Have you found the grave of an old
friend ?”’
‘‘No,”” said the delegate, ‘but I was
wondering how they came to bury those
two fellows in one grave.”’—Ti{- Bits.

The Kanaka Swimmer.
His Wonderful Accomplishments as an Amphibious
Creation.
There is a native living in Nawiliwili,
district of Lihue, on the Island of Kauai,
Hawaii, whom every one knows as Johnny
but whose family name is Kaulokai. This
latter name he has tatooed on his arm, to-
gether with the picture of a deceased
sweetheart. In appearance he is a typical
native, muscular, with the appearance of
an athlete.
Johnny is a remarkably good swimmer,
and, it is said, was at one time very much
addicted to the habit of stealing ducks.
His method was very simple. He would
hide in the buirushes along the edges of
the duck ponds and would, from time to
time dive out where the ducks happened
to be, snatch one or two from the surface,
push them into a bag, swim back again to
the rushes, there to take breath for another
sally. In this way hesucceeded in making
quite a comfortable living. However, he
has given up his crooked ways, and now
resides like a peaceably inclined citizen,
relying on work that is given him from
time to time.
When out on a hunting or fishing ex-
pedition there is no better man on the
island of Kauai than this same Johnny.
Barefooted, he will climb all over the dan-
gerous palis that fall away abruptly and
end thousands of feet below in the sea.
The festive goat itself is not more active,
and when hunting for this kind of game
he is an invaluable a man to chase the ani-
mals round to a point of vantage.
As a diver there are few natives, even,
who can beat him. In diving after lob-
sters he has the very uncomfortable habit
of swimming a great distance into caves
that have no opening above the water.
Beneath the rocks of these places he will
feel around, never failing to come to the
top, bringing with him something to make
glad the hearts of the housewives.
Ethics and Business Clashed.
“I first began my practice,” the doctor
remarked between the puffs of a cigar,
‘down in a little town in Georgia. Busi-
ness came pretty slow, and I had made up
my mind that I should not advertise, and
I want to tell you how it came out. The
proprietor of one of the little papers came
to me one day with the remark :
“Doctor, I want a little ad from you for
the Weekly Razoo.’
‘“ ‘I couldn’t do it, my good friend,’ I
replied, for it would be a flagrant violation
of professional ethics.
** ‘What’s them ?
‘‘ ‘Why the rules of the profession.’
‘Oh, I see! Well, couldn’t you let me
use your name in cases where you are
called.’
‘* ‘Yes—no objection to that.’
‘“‘And you’ll pay me for it?’
‘‘ ‘Not a cent,’ I replied, perhaps a little
harshly, for I thought the editor was try-
ing to work me.
‘Out he went, apparently angry but I
paid no attention to it: Oneday I was
looking over The Razoo and in it was the
notice of the recovery of a little girl in the
town, and the conclusion was the brief but
flattering compliment, ‘Dr. Gannt in at-
tendance.” I confess I thought better of
the fellow and was pleased. The next
week, however. one of my patients died,
and at the conclusion of a very pathetic
obituary notice was the same lines, ‘Dr.
Gannt in attendance.’ You ought to have
seen me get to the office and get an adver-
tisement in the Razoo.”’
Yellowstone Park and Omaha Exposi-
tion.
Personally Conducted Tour via the Pennsylvania
Rallroad.
The Yellowstone National Park is un-
questionably one of the most interesting re-
gions on the globe, for within it is dis-
played the greatest collection of nature’s
manifold wonders. Indeed, this mountain
bound plateau, high up on the summit of
the everlasting Rockies, is a veritable play-
ground for the world’s giant forces.
The personally-conducted tour of the
Pennsylvania railroad company, which
leaves New York on September 1st, affords
the most satisfactory means of visiting this
wonderland and viewing its marvelous
features. A stop of two days will be made
on the return trip at Omaha, affording an
opportunity to visit the Trans-Mississippi
Exposition. Tourists will travel by spec-
ial train of Pullman smoking, dining,
sleeping and observation cars in each direc-
tion. Eight days will be spent in the
Park. A stop will also be made returning
at Chicago. The round trip rate, $235
from New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore
and Washington, $230 from Pittsburg,
covers all necessary expenses.

REMARKABLE RESCUE---Mrs. Michael
Curtain, Plainfield, Ill.,, makes the state-
ment, that she caught cold, which settled
on her lungs ; she was treated for a month
by her family physician, but grew worse.
He told her she was a hopeless victim of
consumption and that no medicine could
cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr.
King’s New Discovery for consumption ;
she bought a bottle and to her delight
found herself benefited from first dose. She
continued its use and after taking six bot-
tles, found herself sound and well ; now
does her own housework, and is as well as
she ever was. Free trial bottles of this
