“I still believe in it,” replied ‘the

Its Translation.
“What do these fool novel writers
mean by saying of the heroine that the
subtle perfume of her breath brushed
the hero’s cheek?” |
“I guess it’s cracking up the sweep-

Destroying Nature’s Barriers.
There are four kinds of barriers om
divisions set up by nature upon the
face of the earth—mountains, forests,
deserts, rivers. The first, the moun-
tains, man cannot remove, but he can
and does go through them to save the
trouble and difficulty of going over
hem. The second, the forests, he has
largely cleared away altogether. The
third, the deserts, he is: beginning to
treat like the forests. The fourth, the
rivers, he is beginning to shift when it
suits his purpose and to regulate their
flow at will.
Make Sunflower Useful.
In some countries, notably in the
Russian provinces north of the Cau-
casus, the sunflower serves other pur
poses besides ornamenting gardens
with its. huge golden blossoms. The
seeds are used to make oil, which is
employed both in the manufacture of
soap &nd in cooking. The stems and
leaves are burned and the ashes used
to make potash. - Last year the sun
flower factories of the Caucasus pro-
duced 15,000 tons of potash.
