Tou're right old man," he cried, "and I'll eat all tbe humble pie yon care to feed me. That girl is a god- iess In miniature." Nad anranff to the window, a pleased smne of triumph on his face.

This was the first time that there had come a real clash, and Belllngham felt It keenly. In time the edge of the trouble wore away, but there was no real resump tion of the old friendship. Maurer was till too hurt to forget all that bad been said In the beat of passion, though he had forgotten the thing be had said to Ned at the first disagree ment. While there was a careful observ ance of the old forms, back of thvn was lacking the real regard tlmt I: -' made them something more I' forms. Vainly Ned sought to overcome 111 reversal of opinion, but It was nearly two weeks before he could change. Then as he was dressing one morning he chanced to glance through the half opened shutters, and a moment later be was in his friend's room. "Yon win!" he cried with snch ab ruptness that Maurer cut himself with the rasor he was wielding. "That girl Is a raving beauty, Maurie. Funny that I should have taken that dislike to her, but if s gone now. She's all that you say she is." "And that isn't much," was the re ply In cold contempt "Funny I should have raved about her. She looks like a chorus girL It was a shock when I saw her this morning." am von prajvT" stormed Ned. "Why, she's tbe daintiest little woman the world can show. She's better look ing and sweeter than I thought she was at first." "ana's' a tricky sort of young per son." observed Maurer calmly. "One day she looks like the real thing, and rhn ar-ln she looks utterly common place. Funny you can only rave about her on one of her uninteresting days. I suppose that from now on you'll be drawing brunette dwarfs, no matter what sort of heroines tbe author likes. You'll lose your pull with the publish ers If you keep that sort of thing up Better see a doctor about it" "You'd better see an oculist yourself if your eyes are so dull to real loveli ness," retorted Ned. "When you have finished yoor breakfast let me know, and I'll come and get mine. The lease here runs out at the end of this month. I guess I won't renew my share, Mau rer. Bettor get some one else." "Think 111 move, too," sssented Maurer. . "I don't want to stay here with a female freak like that Irving cross the way. I'll stop at the office on the way out and tell them te look for another tenant" He went out to lonely breakfast, and when he had gone Belllngton came out to play with tbe cold chops th ink. warm coffee. He did not go to tbe drawing board in spite of tbe splendid Inspiration of tbe girl across tbe way. Hs was tremendously fond of Man per. and this abrupt termination of their friendship, coming as It bad, n aettled him for work. He could cedy puff at his pipe and wonder what It would be like to set up housekeeping alone in a smaller spartment He would take an apartment hi the same bouse to be near the girl, but be would need only one. room. .

"There's only one prettiest girl," he doclan J, "but yours Isn't common place." And with that concession Mau rer waa content ' Slang That lan't Slang. "We are so used to slang," said the woman who reads, "that we have fall en Into tbe habit of including in that category almost every unusual word or phrase for example, the verb to faze,' which means to baffle, to con fuse, to porplex. That word Is mis spelled variously phase, phase, pbeaze and fenxe. It is not slang, and any woman may use it without fear, for It is as good English as any other in the language... Shakespeare employs it, spelling It Yaza as it should be spell ed. Then there Is the phrase lie down,' which si most everybody re gards as slangy when used in the sense of surrender to obstacles or fa tigue. It too, is not slang. "We have for it no less an authority than Thomas s Kempts, who certainly cannot be considered sn imitator of George Ade. That eminent writer says: Xove feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble, attempts what Is above its strength, pleads no excuse of Impossibility, for it thinks all things 'nvful for Itself and all things possi ble. It is therefore able to undertake all things, and it completes many things and warrants them to take ef fect where he who does not love would lie down.' He undoubtedly uses tbe ex pression as meaning to give tap In the face of difficulties. It's better not to class a word or phrase as slang unless one is sure." New Orleans Times Pemocrat The Chins ef Burma. Tbe Chins of Burma are divided into a large number of clans, and a man may not marry a woman of bis own clan, but after the marriage cere monies are over the wife is Initiated into her husband's clan and has her wrists wrapped round with cotton yarn as a witness to all evil spirits that she Is under tbe guardianship of the knn, or ancestry, of her husband. The Chins sre afraid of witches; but, as has been tbe case with other peo ples, they find great difficulty in learn ing for certain whether a given wom an Is a witch or not .If they knew it they would certainly drive the wom an out of tbe village and perhaps re sort to further violence. Like the Bur mese, they believe that witches bavs the power by then incantations to in troduce foreign matters into ths bodies of those whom they hats and so to causa them to die.

By NORMAN D. I NO HAM. Eucalyptus planting has now passed the experimental stage and may be considered without question as a com mercial proposition. Tbe value of tbe crop and the possibilities of growing it in California have been sufficiently onova or buoaltpttjs, nun or fibbt soautaa. demonstrated to make judicious plant ings even on a large scale perfectly safe, with sn assurance of sure and reasonably large 'profits. It Is impor tant, however, for the planter to con sldsr in tbe light of the best informa tion tbe nature of the product which be wijl produce, or, in other words, the market which he will attempt to supply with bis eucalyptus trees. Eucalypts may be used either for fuel or for hardwood lumber. For the former purpose the prevailing prices of wood in most of our cities snd large towns during tbe past few years have been such as to make the fuel proposition sppsar extremely attrac tive. Many glowing prospectuses srs being offered to the public on this basis. It should be remembered, bow ever, that tbe production and use of natural oil are rapidly increasing, that gaa and electricity for beating pur poses srs cheap in the cities snd that all three are coming more and more Into use every day In tbe place of wood. In fact wood as fuel Is rapid ly becoming a luxury, and there is In ths mind of the writer no reason for expecting .any increase In its uss ss fuel by ths general public. He there fore believes it unprofitable snd un wise te enter upon eucalyptus: plant big with tbe sole Idea of raising wood for fuel. Ths profits to be derived from eucalyptus In the future will be found in hardwood lumber for wagon work, farm snd other Implements, rail road, coach snd bouse finishings, fur niture, etc. Ties, telephone poles and bridge timber will also prove profita ble. For any of tbe above named products of eucalyptus at least ten years' growth will be required, snd of course tbe older tbe trees the greater tbe profits In proportion. The wood of most of tne eocsiypts makes gojd fuel. A grove of bins gums Ave years eld, set out -6 by 9 feet apart, under favorable conditions sjDCAX.Trros enoavLvs sotrn rasas out. should yield from fifty to eighty cords of wood per sere, while st tea years of sge 80 to 160 cords may be expect ed. Groves under Irrigation will un doubtedly .do better than tbe above aguree indicate, while tbe quality ef tbe lend will also, ef course, have a great in finance. Kncslyptne planting eomsserciaiiy has a number of points la Us favor as aa Invest moot over tbe fruit Industry, principally because tbe fruit business Is more er lees ef aa uncertainty, while the timber proposition le com paratively sure. A heavy rain daring ths blooming period of tbe fruit trees checks fertilise tloo, a small crop be ing tbe result This la not the case wtth tbe wood crop, where the more rain the greater growth and profits. The harvesting period ef most fruits extend, ever hut a few weeks, and ir tt Is not gatnered at that Urns the crop to a total leaa, while, oa tbe other hand, the harvesting period ef the timber trees extends over a lifetime. The price ef labor may hs high er tbe value ef the wood much lower thsa usual. If either hi the eaee the trees stay bo allowed to stead. The follow ing year they will be larger and atore valuable.

Qrade Generally Used Not Up to the Standard. That the grade cf seed wheat gen erally used IA not up to the standard waa ascertained lu an invest Igatlouby G. W. Shaw of tbe California station, who secured S large number of sam ples of seed wheat over a wide area in the Sacramento and Sun Joaquin val leys of California to determine tbe general character of the seed used by the farmers of tbe state. In general the samples showed that the quality of seed used by most farmers is lack ing In purity, perfection of develop ment, weight per busbel, freedom from weeds and freedom from bunt It Is stated that practically all Investiga tors have found tbe use of large, plump seed snd of s high weight per busbel the most profitable. No perma nent benefit Is believed to be secured from the frequent exchange of seed unless a better typo of wheat or a more rigorous strain of tbe same type hi obtained by the cxchAngs. "Tbe use of seed from henry j Idding plants, n plump and henry cm In. n cloan wheat and a pure variety ere considered by him the innat Important points In seed selection. In this connection tbe results secur ed by E. C. Montrnmrry of the Ne braska station In n n experiment wtth seed wlmrU and Fred oals selected by the use cf the fanning mi:i are of in terest In these experiments heavy seed wheat separated by tbe fan ning mill did not show an Improve ment in either yield or quality of grain as compared with light or unseparated seed, aud It is believed that no perma nent Improvement In quality or yield is to be expected from the use of tbe fanning mill In seed selection. At first thought It would seem that if "like produces like" tbe large or heavy seeds should produce tbe best crop. However, we must recognise tbe individual plant ss a unit for selection rather than tbe individual seed.. If s slnglo plant of wheat be taken snd tbe kernels thrashed out It will be found that all sizes of kernels are produced by tbe plant some large and some small. As every wheat plant contains both heavy and light seed, the fanning mill gives almost the same kind of whest so fsr ss inheritance Is concerned, in ths light wheat as In the heavy. It must be remembered thst reference Is made here to the permanent results which may be expected from tbe use of tbe fanning mill and that its uss or tbe use of screens for removing ob noxious weed seed is In no wsy discour aged. Honey Vinegar. A modification of a French generator devised at ths Arlsons station' will prove especially serviceable where only small s mounts of honey wine are nAnnax, von AOnriricAnox or Bom WIKU to-be made Into vinegar from time to time. A good wine or alcohol barrel ia carefully painted on tbe outside to pre vent corrosion of tbe hoops, A vent hole is now bored In each end of tbe caak near the cblme on tbe side next tbe bung snd covered with a fins screen to keep out insects. At ths bot tom of ons snd s spigot is Inserted and a perpendicular row of gimlet boles bored snd fitted wltb wooden plugs to act as a gangs. Fresh wine, which must first be fully fermented, can be sdded from time to time through s tube passing In at tbe bungbole sud ending near the bottom of the cask. In this wsy tbe active film will not be disturbed by drawing off a little vine gar or adding a little fresh wine. Tbe tube most not be of metal, but can be of glass where svsllsble. In this re-' gion a large stalk of native cane, the joints of which have bees perforated wltb a hot Iron, makes a very service able tube. A tin funnel may be used to pouring tbe wine Into the tube. A similar apparatus has been found very serviceable in France for converting table wine waste Into vinegar. Socb wastes under suitable temperature conditions yield good vtsegsr In nine ty days. The generator Is started wltb a mixture of about three-fourths wine and ene-foffrth good vinegar. When once started ae new vinegar need be WeevU In Wheat. H. A.

How a Dream Rescued Woman From it Terrible Death. Mr. Jones waa a popular yOong busi ness man in tbe city of B. His wife wus a woman of strong emotion and most delicate perceptions. , . Betwn them there existed a rare sympathy which extended to all the faculties. Mrs. Jones fell III, and after a few weeks' agony, during which ber hus band waited ou ber wltb s constancy not often seen, she died that Js, she appeared to be dead. Tnere nae no Question about it In the doctors' inlnd. A certificate was issued and an under taker called in. But for the fortunate circumstance that Mr. Jones was op posed to embalming there would be no story to telU unless It were of another person apparently denjl who was re vived for s moment under tbe lunge of the embalmer's knife. Saved from that fate, Mrs. Jones was laid out In ber burial robe, placed hi s coffin and on ths third day was buried In a cemetery some distance awsy. Her husband was greatly affected, so much that his relatives feared an at tack of melancholia. Ills uncle, wish ing to arouse his spirits and divert bis attention, remained in tbe bouse the night after the funeral and was s valuable witness, ss it proved, of sn event so astounding as to be almost beyond belief. For sn hour or two that evening they talked chiefly about tbe dead and then went to bed. Mr. Jones, after tossing upon his pillow for s long time, fell Into s troubled sleep. In tbe middle of the night be beard a voice calling bis name, "George. George!" The tones were not familiar to him; they did not recall tbe voice of his wife. Still conceiving himself 4ne victim of a dream, he again went to sleep. It waa daybreak before tbe voice was heard again, and this time It could not be Ignored, ne recognized It st Isst as tba voice of his wife In sore dis tress calling upon blm. Sbe cried: "George! Save roe! Save mo, George!" Fie sprang out of bed, trembling all over. That despairing cry still rang in bis ears.

He passed his arms about ber and lifted her out Tbe two men removed ber from tbe grave, placed ber In the buggy snd drove home. I'byslclans were called In. Under close medical cure sbe slowly recovered. Every pre caution was taken to guard her from tbo knowledge of what bad happened, and all who were lu tbe secret pledged themselves to silence lest tbo shock of thst revelation of ber burial and resurrection might prove fatal to ber, but tbe story leaked out later, when Mrs. Jones got about again.
