But putting on oxtromo stylos In cloth

think August Is a good time to hold a

a fair slzo sale Including 50 head of

Scent is Distributed.
It is true that we associate scent
with the Mowers and, occasionally,
with the leaves of plants. But nature,
bo mnrveJousIy loving of diversity,
scatters the sweetness, now here, now
there, sometimes in the flower, some
times in the lenf, in the fruit, tlie
bark, the wood and even In the roots. .
In the ginger nnd the Iris, for In
stance, the perfumed oils are In the
roots, In the s-andal tree the fragrance
Is in the wood, In the cinnamon shrub
It Is the bark that sceuts the air.

Odd Marriage Customs. i
In all Slav weddings the bride Is
fetched by tlie bridegroom, emblemat
ic of the time when his forebears car
ried their mates away forcibly. At
Albanian weddings It Is correct for the
bride to weep and show great reluct
ance to leaving liome. The bride
groom must present the brldo with a
handsome dress for tlie marriage, no
matler what his clrcuinstahces are, so
that It is known by all the guests that
the dress the bride Is wearing show3
the taste of the bridegroom.
Books That Have Life.
After nil, Is It not better that a hun
dred unnecessary books should be
published than that one good and use
ful book should be lost,? (Nature's
law of parsimony is arrived at by a
process of expense.) The needless
volumes, like the Infertile seeds, soon
sink out of sight; and tlie books that
have life In them are taken care of by
the readers- Who are waiting some
where to receive nnd cherish them.

Ancient Almanacs.
The clog almanac,' once In common
use In parts of England, Is a square
stick, on the four edges of which are
cut notches to represent the days of
the week nnd various symbols to Indi
cate different festivals nnd holidays.
More ancient thnn .clog almanacs are
the Scandinavian runic calendars,
made of wood, or sometimes of horn
or bone, and Inscribed with runic let
ters. "Assurance" and "Insurance."
Assurance und insurance are synon
ymous terms In ordinary usage, but In
Britain fairly strict distinction Ift
maintained, assurance being confined
to life, nnd Insurance to fire, marine,
etc. Assurance was used exclusively
until the end of the Sixteenth century
when "Ensurnnce" made Its appear
ance, the initial "e" now having been
changed to an "I."
Hail Cannot Be Prevented.
The theory that hall could be pre
vented by firing cannon or discharging
explosives never was accepted by
scientists, and careful experiments
have shown thnt It has no foundation.
The theory was advanced that the agi
tation caused by an explosion would
prevent the formation of hailstones.
Didn't Mean to Be Forgotten.
A Snn Francisco woman, who died
several years ago. left S.'t.OOO each to
ten of her nephews, on condition that
her tombstone was to be replaced
every two years with a new one on
which each nephew In turn should
put an Inscription In verso setting
fortli his love nnd affection.
La Salle Given Ontario Land.
The first European landowner in
what Is now the province of Ontnrlo,
was Sleur do La Salle, who, la May,
1C75, received from King Louis XIV a
patent of nobility and a grant of land,
comprising Fort Frontenac nnd tho
islands opposite. That old grant of
land now forms part of the site of the
city of Kingston.
Heartbeats of a Growing Plant.
An Instrument which has been called
"Cresograph," Is tho Invention of Sir
Jngadls Chandra Rose, a distinguished
scientist of Indln, which Is so delicate
that It Is posstble to witness tho

Liberty and Authority.
Whllo believe liberty Is essential,
we must also believe that authority Is
necessary. But there must bo co
ordination between them so that both
may proceed together In a compelling
torce to maintain our social, civic and
political order. Grit.
