Sbe sat In the jrrand stand waiting ! for lier first football game to begin, j ller boy hud played it ever since she could remember, and now he his varsity team, which was her var sity, too—her Cornell. Two of his fraternity "brothers" sat on either side as a bodyguard to her gray hairs and as a bureau of informa tion. They were happier than they would have been with the prettiest girl they knew. She smiled with motherly pride when she picked him out of the s<juad of nd sweatered "huskies" which at length trotted out on the field. She wiped away a tear when a Columbia man fell across the line for a touch down. Then site her bodyguard by muttering Wilder her breath: "Hold 'em hard, fellows!" "Twist their necks!" "Push! Push!" She explained her knowledge of these strenuous technical details by saying that her boy cried out like that when playing dream in his sleep. She did not faint when he tackled too hard and failed to rise, although his white face, with a streak of red blood across the forehead, was staring up at her. "You can't hurt my boy," she said, with confidence. "He's Just doing that to get wind." So it proved. He was up and at it harder than ever within the time limit. The Itha cans gained five through tackle and lost as many more yards trying to round the end. Then something hap pened. A sturdy youngster shot out of the tangled elevens and dashed down the field toward the goal of the blue and white. He crossed line after line of whitewash and finally was over the last one, the whole pack at his heels. "Touchdown! Touchdown!" cried the crowd. "My boy did it," said the mother, and then she cried— New York Trib une. FLOWER AND TREE. Planting a few trees every fall or spring, as may be convenient, keeps up the supply of fruit. The American persimmon makes a handsome tree ornamentally consider ed. It has dark green leaves that re main on late In the fall. Carnations do not thrive in the shade and will not tolerate the presence of rank manure. They are easily grown in any good garden soil. One secret of getting flowers from potted plants is to let them get pot bound. When a plant can no longer keep on growing, it turns its energies toward producing flowers. By yearly attention to pruning and by good feeding a shrub may be re newed from season to season and kept always strong. Old and weak wood should always be removed. Ammonia Is a plant stimulant, not a food. While it Is useful to force plants into bloom and growth after the soil is exhausted, a fertilizer must be applied or the plant will use up its own vital ity in bloom. AntlqnHy ol the Boomerang. The boomerang, the Australian na tive's weapon of offense and defense, referred to in all reference works as an instrument unknown until after the discovery of Australia, was doubtless known before the time of Christ. Pliny the elder, a contemporary of our Sa viour, writes as follows in his "Natural History" respecting an Instrument made of the wood of the aqulfolia: "If a staff made of thla wood, when thrown at an animal, from want of strength In the yrson throwing falls short of the mark, It will come back toward the thrower of its own accord, so remarkable are the properties of that tree." It is altogether probable that tho learned Pliny did not consider the shape of the "staff" and referred its pe culiarities to the nature of the wood of which It was made. Perception of Fact. "What Is the way to success?" we ask the great men. They cannot tell us. They know what upheld them In every emergency, but they cannot de fine it It was the sense of proportion. It measured, plumbed every circum stance and gauged every condition. It weighed relative values, material and human. It knew character when it found it and sifted the wheat from the chaff. It recognized opportunity, and it likewise made the most of It.—-Cos mopolitan. Hnc'llitKC Betrayed 111 m. Some time ago a registered package sent from the New York postofflce, containing a large sum of money, was received at its destination apparently intact, but on being opened was found to contain nothing but waste paper. Suspicion could not be directed to any one clerk of the many who had handled It. Tho insiiector had often noticed that the glue used at each postofllce had an odor distinguishable from that of any other. He investigated along this line and was finally rewarded when in an office near the destination of the package he discovered an iden tity of smell between the registered package and a gluepot on tho counter. He caused a watch to be set upon the clerks In the office in the usual way and Dually caught his man spending a portion of his 111 gotten gains. l.lnhthouae Without a Light. The most extraordinary of all British lighthouses is to be found on Amlsh rock, Stornoway hay-a rock which is separated from the Islund of Lewis by a chaunel over 500 feet wide. On this rock a conical beacon Is erected, und on its summit a lantern is fixed, from which, night after night, shines a light which is seen by tho fishermen far and wide. The way in which this light house is illuminated is this: On the island of Lewis Is a lighthouse, and from a window In the tower a stream of light is projected on to a mirror In the lantern on the summit of Arnish rock. The consequence is that, to all Intents and purposes, a lighthouse ex ists which lias neither lantern nor lighthouse keeper. One of Mm. Stanton's Retort*. Once a fashionable woman of New port expressed to Elizabeth Cady Stan ton a fear that it was not entirely mod est for a woman to speak In public. The dlgnlfled president of the suffrag ists looked at her with mild surprise. "Why," she said, "there are not so many people at our convention as there were at the ball last night, and surely it Is more modest to make a sensible KjH'ceh In quiet costume than to ex hibit one's hare arms and shoulders at a public dance In the embrace of a strange gentleman."

It is one of the Important departments ; of the establishment and often earns the gratitude of travelers whose un fortunate habit of forgetting leads them to look for things that are miss ing. In hotels a book is kept in which are jotted down descriptions of arti cles forgotten. When a hotel does a largo transient business, it is frequent ly with difficulty that lost articles are arranged for identification. The integrity of servants must l>e relied upon to a large extent. The chambermaid takes immediate posses sion of a room upon de parture. She picks up a*tliing that appears to have been left unintention ally. A note describing the article and giving the name of the guest, the room number and the time of departure is taken to the clerk. The property is turned over to the housekeeper and by her to the "lofct" department. Said the clerk of one fashionable ho tel: "I remember a Singular case of a man who didn't respond at once to the hall boy s call for an early train. The result was that when he did get up he had to run. Kroui the station we got a call or. the telephone: " 'Hurry to my room.' lie shouted, •and on the taMe you'll find a very Val uable package. It's my eyes. Send them to the station.' "Sure enough, we found two glass eyes on the dressing table In a plush case. One was for daily use and the other for an emergency. Guests often forget their false teeth, but that was the only ease I ever knew of a man leaving his eyes." Rings and pins are often found on the wash stand. Valuable pins are fountl everywhere, the window cur tains being a favorite depository. Watches and revolvers bob out from under pillows. Of course when the owner's a'ldress is known and any thing valuable is left he is notified and the article sent to him. If not called for in a few months, the forgot ten article usually becomes the per quisite of employees. New York Times. PRIMITIVE PUMPS. The Mechanism t"*eil In Ancient Egypt it ml In China. A representative piece of mechanism occurs frequently on the sculptures of early Egypt. It has the appearance of and Is generally believed to be that of a portable pump. The hydraulic screw is also attributed to I his people, but their main reliance seems always to have been t* shadoof, seen every where along the banks of the Nile, an invention so simple and so well adapt ed to their needs that it remains today substantially the srtme at It has been through all the centuries since history began. The same may be said regarding the chain pump In China, an Invention the origin of which antedates the Christian era. This simple machine, which seems never to have been improved upon, Is in such common use that every agricul tural laborer is In possession of one. Where irrigation Is conducted on a lar ger scale the chain pump is made pro portionately larger and moved by a very simple tread wheel, and still lar ger ones are operated by yoking a buf falo or other animal to a suitable driv ing machine. The application of steam to raising water Is of uncerlain origin. "T.ong be fore the Christian era certain applica tions of fire to vessels containing wa ter, by which effects were produced calculated to astonish Ignorant wor shipers, were practiced by the priests of Egypt, Greece and Home, but their knowledge seems never to have been turned Into any channel of secular use fulness. Itepulaed by Bee*. * A striking incident of the relief of Cawnpore was the rout of the Ninth lancers by a swarm of bees. A village In the line of marcli was found to be defended by a hastily Improvised stockade, on the top of which a num ber of hives were stuck. Into one of these a young officer jabbed his sword, with a result that in far less time than It takes to tell It the whole advance guard was racing for dear life to the rear, and Sir Hope Grant hastily formed line of battle, believing it re pulsed by the mutineers in force. Illce Stuffing. Rice stuffing for roast chicken or tur key Is considered preferable to the usu al breadcrumbs. To prepare It brown one chopped onion in a tablespoonful of butter and mix with It four cupfuls of cold boiled lice and one cupful of breadcrumbs that have been moistened In one cupful of milk. Season with sage, parsley or other sweet herbs, as desired. Add half a pound of sausage meat or finely chopped salt pork and lilt and pepper to taste. I'robably True.
