One of the peculiarities to be no- ticed in connection with the twining of plants is the fact that with very few exceptions all the individuals of ©one specles always twine in the same direction. Most plants twine in the ©oposite course to the movement of the sun or the hands of a watch. Such twiners are the morning glory, wis- taria, wax plant, trumpet creeper and many others. Among those which twine In the opposite d'rection the hop and wild bindweed, or climbing polygopum, are familiar examples.— Harper's Weekly. Priznitive Race. In the more inaccessible parts of the Bierra Madre mountains in northern Mexico live a curious people called the Tarahuamaris. Many of them dwell in caves, but they have also small vil lages, all of them about 8,000 feet ebove sea level. The Tarahuamaris are small in body, but possessed of much endurance. Their only food is maize, and they manufacture a drink called teshuin from the same cereal. Their language is limited to about 300 words, and they cannot count beyond ten. Paving the Way.

Mr. Ruskin was once asked if 1t would not be well for the Welsh lan- Euage to die out and be replaced by the English. “God forbid!” he re- plied. “The Welsh language is the language of music. There is no genias about the English ianguage. The Seotchr have got all the poetry and the Irish all the wit, and how the devil we got Shakespeare I do not know.” London’s Many Bridges.

Soil Fertility is Professor Esten's topic. It is a lecture of great impor- tance, with opportunity for notebooks and pencils. Professor Esten will show how " the fertility of the soil of New England has been steadily mined and marketed for generations. The pro- fessor has the remedy for abandon- ment of farms, foreclosures, auctions, broken up families which have follow- €d the persistent mining of the fertll- ity of the soil.

Duffy of West Hartford, one of those om the list, did not reach the presidency of the Comnecticut Dair: men’s association by aceident. His fel- low dairymen recognized in him merit of no unusual kind: merit of a stead- fastness of high purposes that have led him to the achievement of much suc- cess as a gairyman and farmer.

PICKING UP PINS. Why Tempt Fate? Asks a Man Who Can't Disregard Omens. I believe T'as as free from super- stition as most persons. Yet there is a matter of picking up pins. It is such a small matter. Why flout Fate? A little sneaking homage to the god- dess, a little deference. It can hurt nothing. There is a power and there luck. No fact is better authenti- ated. In the morning or forepart of the day, if 1 see a pin, I pick it up. To de S0 may require some courage, as in a public’ street. All the more virtue in the act. For example, if the pin is bent, or even rusty, I do not feel call- ed upon to pick it up. Why, I cannot tell, only it is so. Again, it is not nec- essary to keep the pin. The ndage only says: “Pick if up.” Therefore, you may drop it again. In the after: noon I am languid in observance When the day is so far spent the die cast for that day.

These discov- eries do not disturb me, but only make me curious. Sometimes I try to break the rule by reaching for the last first. 'Tis no matter. The re- sult is the same. Realizing that for me it is a law I accept it and find no tault. Omens are mot always omens at all. Some are special. It is only neces- sary to regard those that are valid to you. I believe they are only valld while you think they are, but I am not certain. It is well to take no chances.—New York Sun. I EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS ntial Things. The most marked trait guishes the strong from the ability to see what and what is non-eseential. The power of the artist is first of al the power of choice, his ability to sc- lect from the bewildering complexities i life the one thing that is meaning- E that distin the weak | is essentiu ful. The modern realistic novelist lacks this power. All facts are of equal im portance. The slop jar in the house is - him as worthy to be described as a woman's soul. Hence the dreary, in- telerable commonplaceness and the feeling of ennui, tediousness and cynic- ism of the average novel The cheap reds and vellows of Mrs Holmes and the duchess of a former day were better than the sick drab- ness, the_hopelessness and sadness of many modern authors. The former bad at least some selective power. Every great passion is selective. Love chooses, emphasizes. Religion has the same blessed quality of dispropor- tion. Homer, Dante, Victor Hugo, evers undying author, has been like tke Parthenon at Athens or_the cathedral like what like what the worll the world at Cologne, ix or was, wants to be.
