Licorice. Licorice belongs to the pea or vetch family, and grows wild, the [ plant commonly reaching a height of | about four feet. It 18 the long, | straight root which is of commercial | value. No means have been adopted for cutting the plant, which requires | about three vears to reach maturity | or for improving its condition. e | To Write a wetter. i The art of letter writing is quite | simple if you will take it in all sim- ' plicity. All you have to do is to con- | jure up a vision of the person to whom you are writing, plck up your pen, and—talk. When you can pic ture a face you like, adorned with a pipe whose shape you know well, it | is no difficult matter to find what to say and how to say it. A letter is a | chat and the pen can be as effective as the tongue. ' Danger Sign in Horse. | The appearance of “white” in the eye of a horse indicates a vicious na- ture, because a high tempered horse constantly locks about, apprehensive of danger, or desiring to do mischic! The quick motion of the eyeball in op- | posite directions exposes an unusual- ly large surface of the white, which 1 thus becomes an evidence of the tem k- per of the animal. Mother Warned in Time. | An unusual occurrence took place | at Notgrove, Gloucestershire, England, | recently. A boy of two and a girl of ; three were playing beside a larz: trough, when the boy fell into the wa- ter. The little girl ran to the boy 3| mother and in lisping tones sald. “Babby in water." The mother ran o | the trough, took the boy out. and with assistance brought him round Maine’s Needle Rock. In Blue Hill Bay, Maine, there Is a pinnacle rock of only six feet in diam eter at its top, which projects to with- in seven feet of the surface of the wa- ter and rises nearly perpendiculariy out of a depth of 78 feet. The exist- ence of this rock is an evidence of the | difficulty, even in well-known waters. of demonstrating that no isolated rocks are lying in wait for heedless victims.—Harper's Weekly.
