LIFE IN_ ICELAND. FlrmhwunArp Built of Turf and Often:Have Earthen Floors.: The guest room in' the Iceland farm- house contained a narrow bed; a big round table and an organ made in Brattleboro, 'Vt. Our host produced the usual’box of snuff and with it a box of good cigars. The host.and hostess then showed us all over the house. It is'a turf structure and is typical of the older farmhouses, with narrow, dark, win. dowless corridors winding in laby- ripthian maze from room to room. One passageway leads to a large open’ mound wherea fire is made to smoke meat and” fish and incidentally the whole house and everything in it. An- other passage leads to another kitchen with a modern stove. The walls are all of turf, as is the roof, with just enough driftwood in the roof to make a framework to hold it in place. Very steep stairs lead up to the badstofa, or sleeping apartment. The badstofa frequently forms the sitting and com- mon workroom of the family, espe- clally in winter, as well as the sleeping room of the entire household. Bunks built -into the wall extend around the room and are often filled with seaweed or feathers, over which is thrown a fold or two of wadmal and a thick coverlet of elderdown. The floors are sometimes covered with boards, but more often consist of damp earth. 'Frourthe ceiling are suspended numerous articles of domestic econ- omy, while large chests containing clothing and valuables are scattered throughout the house.—Springfield Re- publican. STORY OF A LOAN. A Case Where the Statute of Limil tions Was Not Considered. A well known Kansas banker told a story the other day about the statute of limitations. There is a simile in it, plus some good philosophy. One day an old southerner walked into this "banker’s office. The south- erner was a typical gentleman of the old school, Suave, courteous to the point of punctiliousness and honorable to a degree of martyrdom. “What can I d6 for you?” asked the banker. “Well,” replied the southerner, “about thirty-five years ago I loaned a man down south some money—not a very big sum. T told him that when- ever I should need it I would let him know and he could pay me the money. I need some money now, so 1 shall let him know, amd 1 would like to have you transact the business for me.” “My good friend,” replied the bank- er, “you have no claim on that money You can’t hold that man to that loan. You say it has been thirty-five years since you loaned it to him? The statute of limitations has run agalnst that loan years and years ago.” “Sir,” replied the southerner, “the man to whom 1 loaned that money fia a gentleman, The statute of limita- tions never runs against a gentleman.” So the banker sent for the money, and within 4 reasonable time there after the money came. There was a courtly gentleman at the other end of the transaction also. — Kansas City Journal. Trees and Wind. The effect “of wind upon trees is powerful. Even the presence or ab” sence of forests may be determined by the character of the prevailing wind or the conditions that modify it. The wind acts as a drying agent, giv- ing a speclal aspect to many plants. When it is almost always from the same quarter the plants show greater development upon one side. Trees are smaller on the windward edges of for- ests, and trunks and branches are bent to leeward. The deformations are most marked near the sea or In flat regions. ! The cherry, plum, wal- nut, black poplar, ash and certain pines are very sensitive to the wind, but mountain pines and certain firs offer great powers of resistance, and these are recommended for reforesting wind swept lands.

" “1 know him." “I'll bet he's smashed twinty cigars for me—some o’ thim clear Havannys— but I'll get even with him now.” “How will ye do 1t?” “I'l tell ye. Jim always hits me over the vest pocket where I carry me clgars. He'll' hit me there just once more. Theré's no cigar In me vest pocket this mornin’. Instead of it there's a stick of dynamite, d'ye mind!"—Cleveland Plain Dealer. A ‘Matter of Business. “I cannot understand, sir, why you permti your daughter ‘to sue me for breach of promise. You remember that you were bitterly opposed to our engagement because I wasn’'t good enough for her and would disgrace the family.” “Young man, that was untlment hls 1s busines Afflicf Before an affliction is digested con- solation comes too soon, and after it is digested it comes too late, but there 1s a mark between these two as fine almost as & hair for a comforter to take aim at.—Sterne.

A’ great many ‘years ago the people of Egypt, who had many idols, wor- shiped the cat among others. They thought she was like the moon. be- cause she was more active at night and because her eyes changed like the moon. So they made an idol with a cat'’s hend and pamed it Pasht. ‘The same nuawme they gave to the moon, for the word means “the face of the moon.” 'The word has been changed to “Pas™ and “Pus” and has come at last to bp “Puss,” the'name the most REPORTS SENT BACK TO HOUSE| Ballinger-Pinchot Case Now on the Calendar. CLAINS NO JURISDICTION Committee. on Agriculture, by Unani-|" mous Vote, Asks to Be Relieved of Further Consideration of the Matter.
