AS SEEN IN LOOKING GLASS
Unique Method of Famous Doctor for
Ridding Certain Sultan of Rich but
Silly Subject.
It It related of a certain sultan who
wished to seize upon the property of a
rich but silly subject without killing
blm, that he sent for a famous doctor
and asked him If It were not possible
to administer some Bubtle poison In a
person's food which would drive blm
mad If that person were rather weak
mentally to begin with.
"Madness," replied the doctor, "la of
the mind, not of the body. Therefore
It Is quite unnecessary to Interfere
with the physical functions. Instead
of poison engage some of your most
trusted peoplo to ply him with curious
Questions on subjects that he knows
nothing about but which appear very
easy to answer, and in a month you
may safely lock him up and dispose of
his estate."
"What questions, for example?" de
manded the sultan.
"For a beginning," suggested the
doctor, "ask him why It Is that when
you look at anything In a mirror It Is
always reversed from right to left, but
that otherwise the Imago Is perfect
ly true. Why Is It not also upside
down. I write a word on a card and
hold op a mirror thus:
Mirror Reverses.
"The letters are not upside down,
but they are reversed. Turn your
head sideways or, which is the same
thing, turn the mirror and the card a
quarter round and you get this appear
ance: Upside Down.
"The part of the mirror In line with
the handle, that refused to reverse the
Image before, now does reverse It and
the part that at first reversed tho im
age now refuses to do so.''
"It must be because the eyo Is be
twen the card and Its reflection," sug
gested flio sultan.
"Not at all," answered the doctor.
"Let us take this new kodak of yours,
which has what Is called a brilliant
finder, showing the Image right side
up Instead of being reversed, as it
would be on the ground glass.
"Thousands of persons who use
those finders when taking snapshots
Imagine that the picture they see In
the finder Is an exact reproduction of
the same In front of them, but such
Is not tho case. What Is on the
right in reality Is on the left In the
finder, but the Image Is right side up.
"Why does It reverse the picture
from right to left and not from top
to bottom, as It does on tho ground
glass? Turn tho camera round and
look Into the finder tho other way and
the reflector that refused to reverse
the Image before now does so, but
the part that was reversed Is now
straight."
What Is the explanation of the phe
nomenon? CLEVER FEAT IN GARDENING

the one I had in my pocket. Ah my
knife had ull the blades broken I
didn't see how I could get the worst
of It, nor did I, for his had one whole

knives nine times and I have Dually

If I oome across a man who wants to

ELECTRIC EEL IS CURIOUS
Inhabitant of Freah-Water Rivers and
Ponds of Surinam and Other
Parts of South America.
This curious fish, which exhibits the
singular phenomenon of voluntary
electric power residing In a living ani
mal. Is an Inhabitant of the freshwa
ter rivers and ponds of Surinam and
other parts of South America, where
It was first discovered In the year
1677.
This power of emitting an electric
shock Is apparently given It In order
to enable the creature to kll Its prey.
Those who have seen the electric eel
In the Polytechnic while being fed will
have little doubt of this. The fish
given to It are, directly it becomes
aware of their presence, instantly
struck dead, and then devoured. This
specimen Is unfortunately blind, but
It has learned to turn in the direction
of a paddling in the water, made by
the Individual who feeds It. The fish
Is scarcely In the water before a
shock from the gymnotus kills It. The
usual length of the gymnotus Is about
three feet.
Capt. Stedman, In his account of
Surinam, gives an account of the elec
tric eel, which he, of course, had
many opportunities of seeing. He at
tempted, for a trifling wager, to lift
up a gymnotus In his hands, but ac
cording to his own words:
"I tried about twenty different times
to grasp it with my hand, but nil with
out effect, receiving Just as many elec
trical shocks, which I felt even to the
top of my shoulder. It has been said
that this animal must be touched with
both hands before It gives tho shock,
but this I must take the liberty of con
tradicting, having experienced the
contrary effect." The eel mentioned
was a small one, only two feet long;
but one that had arrived at Its full
growth would have given a very much
stronger shock. An English sailor
was fairly knocked down by a shock
from one of these eels, nor did he re
cover his senses for some time. It Is
said that the shock can pass up a
stick, and strike the person holding It.
Mr. Bryant and a companion were
both struck while pouring off tho wa
ter from a tub In which the eel had
been placed.
Humboldt, In his "Views of Nature,"
gives a very animated description of
the method employed by the Indians
to take these creatures a method
equally Ingenious and cruel. Knowing
from experience that the powers of
the gymnotus are not adequate to a
constant volley of shocks, they con
trive that shocks shall be expended
on the horses Instead of themselves.
Having found n pool containing elec
tric eels, they force a troop of wild
horses to enter the pool. The dis
turbed eels immediately attack Intru
ders and destroy many of them by re
peated shocks; but by constantly forc
ing fresh supplies of horses to Invade
the pool, tho powers of the gymnotl
became exhausted, and they are then
dragged out with Impunity.
A Doll Party.
A charming little entertainment of a
Juvenile order was planned recently
by a mother for her lltale daughter.
All the guests were little girls, and
tho basis of the fun was a doll hunt
arranged like a cobweb game.
The cobweb, consisting of gayly col
ored ribbons, was arranged In the cen
ter of the room. To the end of each
string wiw tlfd a card with a name
upon t, that of the doll, which was to
reward the searcher at t'.ie other end
of the ribbon.
At the end of half an hour of wind
ing and unwinding, each little maid
came upon a pretty Uttln doll. After
discovering the dolls the cobwebs led
away once more to tho dining room,
and here the children found a minia
ture clothes line upon which wtw a
frock for each doll, each one clearly
labeled.
While they lingered In the dining
room hoiii" light and attractive re
freshment were served, i aeh chil l
finding ht r place by means of a paper
doll with her namo on It.
New Winter Game.
Many people In search of a new
amusement for the winter evenings
will have cause to be thankful to Mr.
Cyril Maude. He Invented u new
g:imn--"Jumping Iieuns." All that Is
necehMiry Is a plate and a few of the
'jumping beans" from Mexico, with
which moBt peoplu are familiar. The
plate Is marked with a sotien ot con
centric c ircles like an archery t ir
get and each bean Is marked with a
spla.-h of color, Identifying it as being
owned by one of the players The
plale is then warmed slightly nnd the
beans are put Into the center circle.
The winner of the game is the player

of the "horses" make the Issim most

GIVE TREES A LITTLE CARE
It la Much Easier to Prevent Injurie
Than to Cure Them After
Their Infliction.
Indiscriminate trimming nnd a lnck
of senllng causes the death of T' per
"ent. of our fruit and shade trees. Uls
aKcs which result from nn unhealed
wound nre many. Most common anil
probably the most instructive Is tho
bore or tree worm. II? gains .itrineo
wherever the bark Is broken and eats
to the heart of the tree. These worms
multiply rapidly and soon the tree
they are entlng begins to look un
healthy. The leaves become brown
and some of the branches die
Whenever there Is a hole that holds
water the rot will start and ent out
the heart and a hole where water can
accumulate Is Illustrated by one fine
old apple tree Water gathered; win
ter came on; It froze nnd burst the en
tire bark of the tree. As a result, a
grand old family tree which bad fur
nished luscious russets to three gen
erations of lit t lo folk was lost. Then
there Is the winged ant, which also
enters through an unbarked wound
and flourishes lu colonies fatal to the
life of a tree.
Seventy-five per cent, of the trees In
the avenues and streets of our Ameri
can cities and villages rtre suffering
from one or the other of these evils. If
not all. And yet that Is not so seri
ous an It sounds, for the growth of a
tree Is of such a nature that all of
these tumbles can bo overcome. How
ever, the best way to keep your trees
healthy Is to protect them from In
juries. Careless bumps from a lawn
mower nt the base of a young tree
often gives entrance to the bores and
result lu Its death. Keep nails nnd
spikes out of them. Do not allow rope
or wire burns to be made upon them,
and do" not burn off the grass where
you expect young trees to flourish.
A tree grows only on the outside
the interior or heart contributes noth
ing to its life. If there Is a hole, big
or little In your tree, spend a half
bolidny in tree surgery and save tho
years of waiting which a new tree lie
ccssitau s.

There have been many other (ires
of less extent but which have been
nevertheless of serious proportions.
The destruction by these tires lias
been appalling. And yet In almost
every case the city has been rebuilt
In the same compact mass In utter
disregard of the lesson 11 has just re
ceived. Utility of Front Porch.
A front porch Is good for two pur
poses to inspect the passing thrting.
and to display one's telf to them. If
these uses do not appeal to us, we
would better eliminate the front porch
In favor of a side piazza, with an out
look on the garden. There Is the dlfll
culty, perhaps Insurmountable, that
the lot may not bo wide enough for a
piazza at tho side; or the view from
the front may be tho prettiest we
have; or we may be so far In the out
skirts of the town, or set so fur back
from the street, that the front piazza
If wholly unobjectionable. If we are
lit town, and yet for some reason must
have a front porch, we can screen It
In with vines and flower boxes until
It gives at least a measure of privacy;
but we will always regret the side pi
azza we want n screened In piazza,
overlooking the garden, where meals
may be served in warm weather, and
which, fitted with glass walls, may be
jso'i as a sun room In winter.
Keep Everybody Busy.
The most successful towns ami
smaller cities are those which have no
loafers; where everybody is busy.
For recreation spots they have a park
and a picnic ground, ulso a building
equipped with athletic apparatus and
a good nnriiry wuu sunauie reading
rooms. This takes caro of the spare
hours of the inhabitants of all nges
and all classes. When the festive
l uho appears he is at once s t to
work, so that the w hoJe community
helps to keep tip the hum of Industry.
That Ik as near as we approach to the
Ideal city, and Is "mighty good."
