Some years ago a big planter In the Congo abandoned a rubber tract of several hundred mllea which bad be come Infested with tbe parnl'e of the region. All the trrn dioorcd an.l died down to the roots, only these surviving. Part of the trunk under the Inner bark continued to yield the rubber milk, as usual, but tbe fluid was found to be thoroughly poisoned and apparently useless. A visit to the abandoned tract some years after the blight had fallen showed, to he amazement of the owner, that the trees had taken on a new life. When the milk waa tested he found that It made rubber of a superior quality, and now brings the highest price In the market. Apparently nature had revolted aMnst the destructive In sects and with their poison the tree had Inoculated themselves against further affliction of the kind. Industry Aiding Science. The debt of industry to science has often, and very properly, been pro claimed; but now the reverse Is an nounced. The National Electric Lamp Association has established at Cleve land a physical laboratory, which the director. Dr. E. P. Hyde, declares has for Ha object the development of sci ence rather than the Improvement of an lndustrinl commodity.' In thia re spect it differs from the many labora tories that have In recent years been established In connection with large manufacturing concerns. Among the objects of research will be the laws of radiation and the radiant properties of matter, and tbe effects of light and its attendant phenomena on the eye, the skin, and microscopic organisms. A corps of Investigators la being formed. The Englishman, In a Groove. In England nine-tenths of the lads of the middle classes look forward to nothing more than a Beat at an ofllce desk with a certain number of shil lings a week for a certain number of years. To attempt to do anything else would be to run the risk of social ostracism. A young man may loaf re spectably on his family. But he must on no account start a business If it Involves selling anything or producing anything with his bands. That would be bad form. It would be getting out aide the groove. Thus for the great mass of tbe people England holda no romance. The lad who thinks he could do something is discouraged. Every class distinction ts so definite ly marked. The whole weight of pub lic opinion la against the smallest di vergence from tbe ordinary rule. Air-Springs. Mr. Archibald Sharp described at a, recent meeting of the Institution of Automobile Engineers in London hia system of air-springs for road vehicles. As applied to the aaddle pillar of a bicycle, the apparatus consists essen tially of a vertical cylinder with a pis ton or plunger, made to work air-tight by a specially constructed "mitten," and supporting the weight of the rider. The same device has been applied to motor-cycles, and experiments have been made with a light motor-car. On the front fork of a heavy motor-cycle the "life" of the "mitten" covered from 2,000 to 6,000 miles, but on a back spring fork It waa only equiva lent to 1,000 miles'. Tbe effect of the air-springs Is described as luxuriously comfortable. Fortunately Situated. Mrs. Hammond was willing to pay a fair price for work, but she did not Intend to be cheated. "I should like to know how it happens that your boy Terry charges me Hfty cents for mow ing my lawn, when be does Mrs. Por ter's, and there is no reason why he should be twice as long mowing It." "Well, now, aa to that, ma'am," Bald Mr. Halloran, transferring bis gaxe to her gloves, "you see Mrs. Porter's bouse faces the haseball grounds, and she hires Terry always of a Wednes day or a Saturday to come to her place at one o'clock, ma'am, and the game begins at half past two, d'ye see? Twould be a quare lad that wouldn't hurry a bit wtd that chanst to hia band, now wouldn't ItT" The Moral Law. Tbe passage indicated Is not from Kant, but may be found in James Martineau'B "Study of Uellgion," and in full reads as follows. "The rule of light, the symmetries of character, the requirements of perfection, are no provincialisms of this planet; they are known among the stars; they reign beyond Orion and tbe Southern Cross; they are wherever the Univer sal Spirit Is, and no subject mind, though It fly on our track forever, can escape beyond their bounds."

The omcers of the thumb print bu reau were Just wishing for something Interesting to turn up when a tele phone message offered timely diver sion. A woman wn sreaVinc. Do you make print of nnj'jody's thumbs except criminals?" abe asked. The bureau did. "Well," said the woman, "if I will come down there right awny with a man will you make a print of his thumbs?" The bureau would. The man and the woman came. We want his thumb prints for Identification," said tbe woman. "We are going to be married to morrow. He Is my third husband. The other two ran away and I had the hardest kind of a time to find them because there was no sure way of Identifying them. They say thumb prints can never change and that a man can be tracked by them to the ends of the earth. I hope I shall never have to use them. but It is Just as well to be on the safe side. Will you wake them?" The bureau did. The Battle of the Engines. During 1910 It Is expected that strenuous efforts will he made to im prove the already great efficiency of the gas-engine. Although this to rn of engine enjoyed a triumph in UiuD through the achievements of the aero planes, yet it Is pointed out that Its old . rival, the steam-engine, nt the same time greatly advanced in fuel economy, achieving a thermal e!Hciea cy of 19 per cent., a figure hitherto as sociated with gas rather than with steam-engine tests. It has recently been discovered that, owing to en one- l-eus assumptions, the gas-engine has not been credited with having ap proached as close to the thcoic:!c limit of thermal effliency atta'nnble by the prevailing four-Btroke eycli as it really has approached. Thus It has been shown that, a gas-ensino which by the old standard of efficiency was supposed to have attained 30 points out of a possible 35. This leaves so little room for improvement that ex perimenters are turning their atten tion to radical changes In the n:eth:d of operation which will afford a larger margin for advance. A Merited Rebuke, At the age of elghty-sU Madam Rey nolds still found much test In life, end having retained all her faculties, he felt that a few of the physical disabili ties of her age were of small account and portending nothing. Her nephew Thomas was a man of much worth, but of a certain tactlessness of Bpeecb which always roused the Ire of bis aunt. - A few weeks before tbe old lady's etghty-eeventh birthday, Thomas, who had been overweighted with business cares for years, started on a trip round the world which was to consume two years. "I've come to say good-by," he an nounced, when he appeared at his aunt's house, In a town fifty miles dis tant from bis home. "I'm starting round the world next week, and as I'm to be gone two years, and perhaps longer, I thought I might not ever well, you understand, I wanted to be sure to see you once more." Tbe old lady leaned forward fixing him with her bead-like eyes. "Thomas," she said, Imperatively, "do you mean to tell me the doctor doesn't think you'll live to get back?" English Mall Routes. The first record contained In our Colonial history of any kind of muil service dates from 1676, when the court In Boston appointed Mr. John Hayward to "take in and convey let ters according to their direction." In December, 1716, arrangements were made to receive letters in Boston from Williamsburg, Va., during four weeks of the Summer time and eight weeks in Winter. In 1738 Henry Pratt was appointed "riding postmaster" for all the routes between Philadelphia and Newport, Va., to set out In the begin ning of each month and return In twenty-four days. Postage stamps were first Introduced Into the United States In 1847. No Encouragement. The family had stood the -long strain of Uncle Hobart's illness well, but the peculiarities of the physician, chosen by Uncle Hobart himself, bad been, to Bay the least, trying. "Do you really think he will recover. Doc tor Shaw?" asked the oldest sister of the Invalid, who had borne with his vagaries patiently for years. "I know bow you feel, with Thanks giving coming on and all," fcaid the doctor peering at her from under hU shaggy eyebrows, "but It's too soon to tell. He may get well, and then again, he may not; I can't encourage you yet either way." Male Nurses. The Dike of Argyll, speaking to army and navy male nurses, said it was rather the fashion among some ladies to think a man wbo talked ruout nursing was trenching upon moan's department. Anybody who j had read an account of a naval battle would not want woman nurses on board a battleship In time of war. Still Tims. A long-haired man walking along the 3treet met a little boy, who asked bim the time. "Ten minutes to nine," aald the man. "Well," said the boy, "at nine o'clock get your balr cut" And he took to his btela and ran, the ag grieved one after him. Turning the coruer, the man ran into a policeman, nearly knocking him over. "What's up?" said the policeman. The man, very much out of breath, said: "You see that young archln runnicg along there? He asked ma the time, and I told him Ten min utes to nice,' and be aald, 'At nine o'clock get your balr cut.'" "Well," aald the policeman, "what are you running fur? Tou've fo eight minute Ml .. . .

Apparently Able to Distinguish Be tween Real and False Dangers. The Intelligence of the fox la often shown by the way he refuses to be headed when he has made up his mind aa to the safe course to take. The West Somerset have an excel lent fixture at Kllve. but It baa one drawback the sea is not far off, and foxes naturally often make for the cliffs, a secure refuge. A fox can be easily beaded at times, but that Is nearly always when to be Been would betray bim to his enemies, the houuds and give them an advantage; but when If be makes bis point the advantage ia on his side, then nothing will turn him. To return to the West Somerset at Kllve; they found a fox, and the wblp peiin, seeing that the fox meant to go to the cliffs if possible, started to head him off. Tbe ground waa open, and for half a mile the wblpperln and fox were taking parallel lines, the fox clearly meaning to slip by and find a refuge in the cliffs. The man turned the fox away at last, but In a short time the hounds lost him, and I be lieve be got back after all. Again tbe master ranged up some of the field to prevent another fox golnj back into a certain covert. In vain whtpa were rattled against saddle Baps; the fox went light through the watchers and made bis point. It is a thing I have often noticed both with stag or fox, that the quarry seems to distinguish between real and false dangers. London Globe. FRENZIED FINANCE.
