The Potato.
The common potato was at the time
►f the discovery of America in cultl
: Vation from Chile, to which it is in
I ilig'cnous, along the greater part of the
j Andes as far north as to Now Grana
da. It was introduced from Quito into
' Spain about I r»S0 under the name of
i "papa," which in Spanish it still boars.
1 From Spain it found its way to Italy,
j where it became known as "tar tuff a
, lo," and tlionce was carried to Mons, in
1 Belgium, by 0110 of the attendants of
I the pope's legate to that country. In
I 158 Sit was sent by Philippe do Sivry,
' governor of Mons, to the botanist, Do
i L'Ecluse, professor at the I'niversity
1 of I.eydon, who in 1001 published the
! first good description of it under the
; name of "Papas poruanorma," and
J stated that it had then spread through
out Germany. Recommended in France
by Caspar Bnuliin, the culture of the
j tuber rapidly extended in 1502 through
out Franche Comto. the Vosges and
Burgundy. But the belief becoming
prevalent that it caused leprosy and l'e
j ver, it underwent an ordeal of persecu
tion from which it did not recover un
til three-quarters of a century after

Toad Superstitions.
Superstitions as to toads having"been
early inculcated, It has been exceed
ingly difficult 10 got rid of thein. Out
remnant of this ancient credulity still
exists. It is In regard to the absolute
imperishable character of the toad.
There are well educated Americans
who believe that a toad hops out alive
from a slab of stone though he has
been imprisoned there for several mil
lions of years. We give in brief Dr.
Buckland's experiments with toads in
1825. lie took twelve toads and had
the toads putin twelve cells cut in
sandstone, and over these he put plates
of glass. They were buried in a gar
den for over a year. When exhumed
they were all dead. Then some were
putin porous sandstone, and at the
end of a year a few were found "great
ly emaciated." When burled for an
other year, they all died. Toads were
inclosed in wood, and they afl died.
The conclusion is that, deprived of at
mosphere.or without food, toads must
die. if a toad as a tadpole could have
entered a crevice in a rock, It might
have grown, but would have died in
time for want of air and food. This
toad nonsense is so ineradicable that it
is supposable it never can bo dissi
pated.
Pellisson'c Little Adventure.
Pellisson, the famous French histo
rian, was frightfully ugly. One day as
he was walking down the street a
beautiful lady tool; him by the hand
and conducted him into a house close
by. Dazzle l by the lady's charms and
flattering himself that this adventure
could not possibly entail any unpleas
ant consequence !)>• had not the
strength to offer any resistance. His
fair captor introduced him to the mas
ter of the house, saying:
"Line for line, exactly like this,"
whereupon she took her departure.
JVlUkkom. <)•< recovering from his as
tonishment. demanded an explanation.
The master of the bouse, after sundry
apologies, confessed that he was a
painter.
"I have undertaken," he added, "to
supply the- lady with a picture of the
'Temptation In the Wilderness.' We
have been debating for a couple of
hours as to the mode of representing
the tempter, and she ended by saying
that she wished me to take you for a
model." Revue Aneedotiquo.
The Judges Sinned Too.
Wirt Gerrare, in his volume on
"Greater Russia," says that in the
czar's country one may not call an
other a fool. There is a Scriptural in
junction against that, and it is conse
quently a legal offense too. Not long
ago a "vint" player called bis partner
a fool for needlessly trumping their
trick. The offended man brought his
accuser before the court. The culprit
pleaded provocation and, knowing that
the judge was a passionate follower of
the national game, explained The mat
ter in detail. The judge became inter
ested and got excited as the particulars
of the play were given. "I took the
trick with my queen, and, instead of
throwing away, my partner played the
kinßl" shouted the accuser. "The fool!"
said the judge. Then be hastily dis
missed the case.
The Berry He Was.
When Bishop Berry of the Methodist
"Episcopal church was a young preach
er he once gave a lecture in a rural
community. Wishing to be witty, he
announced to his audience that he was
a berry and called upon them to state
what kind of berry. Nearly every ber
ry known in the vicinity was guessed,
and the speaker refused to share the
qualities of any of those named. At
last an old lady who was not sympa
thetic with the seeming levity of the
lecturer, arose and exclaimed in a
squeaky voice: "I know what kind of
a berry you are. You are a gooseberry
and a very green one at that. Goon
with the lecture." And the lecturer did
quickly.—Christian Work.
Animal Shells.
It Is a curious fact that the shells of
certain animals, such as cephalopods,
brachipods and some bivalves, are
commonly marked by retrogressive
changes as age advances. "The old
man returns to second childhood in
mind and body," states a well known
scientist at Washington,"and the
shell of the cephalopod has in old age,
however distinct and highly ornament
al the adult, very close resemblance to
Its own young."
Started Early Enough.
"I want to talk to you, Mary, about
Mi at young man of yours," said her
father. ''When did he say good night
to you last evening?"
"At 10 o'clock," replied the fair girl.
"What? Why, it was 1 o'clock at
least!"
"Oh, that was when he finished say
ing it!" —Philadelphia Ledger.
His Second Book.
"Your first hook, if it is a success,
generally loads to the success of the
second," remarked a rising author.
"Yes, indeed," said another. "It was
the success of my first hook that made
my second. My second book," he add
ed. "was a hank book."
Old Age and Rushing.
