French Whiskers,
The full and sumptuous beard which
was once the pride and joy of every
well olled Parislan Is fast disappear-
ing. Not so long ago the streets of
| Paris teemed with rotund figures car-
rying black portfolios under their arms
and screened by a curtain of curly
hak which whisked gayly In the
breeze. Red bronze was the favorite
color, eithet natural or bottled, as the
case might be. In moments of agita-
tion or perplexity the beard offered
great possibilities to its harassed own.
er, who seemed to derive inspiration
from its constant manipulation.
1 remember once, when I was living
with a French family on the other side
of the Seine, I was attacked by influ.
enza. ‘Madmume insisted upon my call-
ing in her doctor. He was a very small
man with a very large beard. After
ilstening to the atory of my life he
paceeded to examine my lungs, I
wis about a foot taller than he was,
so he was obliged to stand on tiptoe
to perform the rite. As he glued his
ear to my chest his beard seemed to
annoy him, for he suddenly gathered
it up In one hand and flung it over my
shoulder. The action so astonished
me that I entirely forgot to wheeze,
thereby depriving him of one of my
most interesting symptoma.— Exchange.
The Last Hope.
When Lemuel Gregg died a cousin
from na distant town appeared, saying
he had come to settle the estate and
take the residue as Lemuel's only
kinsman. He had a jaunty alr at first,
but at the end of an week he had ac-
quired a watchful and anxious expres.
gion. When he stepped into the office
of Lawyer Mears on Saturday after-
noon he seemed to be extremely nery-
ous.
“Well, how are you coming out?”
asked the lawyer. “I suppose it's all
clear sailing, isn't it?
“Clear sailing!” echoed the executor
“Do you suppose I'd be here with a
fee to pay if ‘twas clear salllng? I'm
desperate, I tell you!
“There isn't a thing left of Cousin
Lem's estate except a two dollar bil!
and three pewter plates. 1 want to
know if there's any way that I can
oblige the town to accept those plates
for the tax bill it sprung up on me
after I thought I'd got everything paid?
If there is I'll give you a dollar and
use the other half oo" that two dollar
bill to get back where 1 came from
this very night.”"—Youth's Companion

Spruce Trees Nursed by Pines.
A singular fact with regard to the re
lations of different species of trees has
been brought out by the reforestation
of the peninsula of Jutland, Denmark.
It was observed that when planted
alone spruce trees did not prosper.
but that if a spruce was planted near
a mountain pine it grew up vigorously.
Further experiment has shown that if
the pines are placed near the spruces
at the beginning and after being al
lowed to grow together with them for
a few years are cut down the benefit
to the spruce continues. The phenom
enon is not understood, says Profes
sor J. W. Harshberger, but it is sup
posed that the roots of the mountain
pine are inhabited by some mycorhiza
which produces the nitrogen needed by
the trees and that this organism is
transferred to the roots of the sur
rounding spruce. Once the Infection
has taken place the presence of the
pine is no longer necessary.
Old Time London Sundays.
Now and then one hears Londoners
complaining that their Sunday is too
dull. They want more amusements,
attractions, life. But had they lived
in the seventeenth century they would
have found a vast difference. At that
period a Bunday in London was a day
of trials. One had only to fetch or
earry to break the Sabbath. Men were
fined for carrying such things as a
haunch of venison and a palr of shoes,
while another individual had to pay
up for swearing on a Sunday. A duke
and a knight were fined again and
again for riding in their carriages on
the first day of the week, and one un-
fortunate pedestrian had to pay a sov-
ereign because he was caught in the
act of strolling from Bristol to Bath
on a Sunday.—Pearson’'s Weekly.
UENTER MILLS,

Mr. Duck snd Charles Miller took a

still further drop to eighteen degrees,
Sunday night six, Mondsy night sev-

was two degrees above zero. During
Wednesday it was twenty above zero.
In many other localities thermom-

the excessive markiogs.
