SEEDS THAT GO TRAVELING
Often Attain Great Elevation and
Are Blown to Far Distant
Lands.
It wits an English astronomer,
W. K. Davis, who tirst discov
ered the true character of cer
tain objects. Heating across the
field of the telescope, which had
been mistaken for meteorites,
says Saturday Evening Post.
He made a readjustment of the
focus of his instrument for the
near point, and found that they
were in reality seeds of various
plants—such, for example, as
the thistle and the dandelion.
I'ndoubtedly such seeds often
attain a great elevation in the
atmosphere, and are carried by
tin* winds enormous distances—
which is exactly what Nature,
anxious for their distribution,
wishes. For this and no other
purpose the seed of the dande
lion is provided with a tiny para
chute. by the aid of which it
makes aerial voyages, as does
that of the milkweed.
It is really wonderful what in
genuity nature exhibits in such
matters. The poppy has a sort
of pepper-dredger, containing its
seeds, which are thrown broad
cast when the wind rattles the
dry stalk, or when some animal
knocks against it. The so-called
“shooting cucumbers” explodes
when ripe, like a fiomb. and scat
ters its seeds far and wide.
Minis, of course, are great dis
tributers of seeds and so like
wise are water currents. Hut in
this line, perhaps, there is noth
ing more curious than the “sea
beans" which people pick up on
the Florida beaches. Popular
belief assigns to them a marine
origin, but in reality they are
the seeds of certain pod bearing
vines which grow plentifully
along the shores of the Carib
bean. They fall into streams,
are carried into the ocean, and
the gulf stream fetches them
into Atlantic waters.
It has been ascertained that
many kinds of seeds will bear
immersion in water for four
months, or even more, and still
retain their germinating power,
so that when thrown ashore they
are ready to sprout.
Japan’s Millions.
Recent figures on tin* populn
tion of Jn]>un make tin* total
about .",000,000 more than that
of the British isles. Tokio has
about 1,500.00(1, Osaka 900.000.
and there are 20 other cities with
more than 50.000 each. How
ever, in making comparisons it
must be remembered that Knin
land's sons are scattered throuiih
out her colonies. The British
empire the world over now has
a population of nearly 400,000,
000.
Recitations by Phonograph.
Since the hep-inning of the year
a phonograph has be(*n used in
the theological faculty of the
1’niveisity of Vienna. IVof.
Swoboda. the head of tin* fac
ulty has noticed that while recit
ing the students always made
the same mistakes. It then struck
him that by means of a phono
praph their mistakes miplit be
demonstrated to them in a strik
inp manner. The results exceed
ed all expectaliens.
D\ie to Salt.
It is not generally known that
salt has determind. lo a consider
ablc extent, the distribution of
man. He was forced to settle
where lit* could obtain it. This
broupht him to the seashore, and
started maritime commerce.
Apain, preservation of food by
salt made lonp voyages possible,
and opened up the World to civ
ilization. _
Strangers Registered.
Every stranger who enters the
W hite House at Washington is
counted by an automatic regis
ter. The instrument is held in
the hand of one of the watchmen
stationed at the door, and every
visitor’s arrival is recorded for
official purposes.
WHY WE DO SOME THINGS
It Is Certainly Not Because We Ap
pear to Advantage When
Doing Them.
A man dot?* not take ofT his
hat to a lady because lie looks
nicer without it. declares (filbert
Chesterton, in the Illustrated
| London News. The instance of
I bald men would be alone sufti
j eient to upset such an explana
tion. ,
He does it because you must
positively do something when
you meet a lady or your whole
civilization goes to pieces; and
taking off your hat is easier than
taking off' your necktie or lying
face downward on the pavement.
The primary point is that you
must do something; not that you
must do something beautiful.
And as long as cultivated people
cannot grasp this fact they will
find their efforts quite futile in
dealing with what they often
consider the dullness of the mid
dle classes, or the vulgarity and
morbidity of the poor.
In so far as the bourgeois
thinks it more important to wear
a Sunday hat than a becoming
hat, he is perfectly right. It is
more important; the religion of
the tribe is more important than
the pretty appearance of Mr.
Jones.
In so far as the charwoman
thinks it more important that
her husband should have a
“proper” funeral than a pretty
funeral, she is perfectly right.
It is more important; decorum is
as permanent a human senti
ment as art. and a much more
pressing one. Any healthy sav
age would understand the char
woman’s sentiments exactly, and
perhaps alarm her with demon
strations of barbaric approval.
He would also understand |>er
fectly the sentiment of a Sunday
hat. I believe in savages myself;
I think that in a great many
matters they represent the en
during common sense and moral
minimum of humanity. There is
nothing which I so sincerely re
spect in savages as their wide
spread and generally ascertained
disposition to wear top hats.
Bombarded Farmer.
An Algerian farmer defied the
police and barricaded his farm 1
yard. Several rifle volleys were
tired at his place in the hope of
terrifying him. As this appar* |
ently had no effect, a three-inch j
quick-firing field gun and meli- |
nite shell were brought into use.
In all IS bombs were fired. The
tirst two flew wide, but the other!
Hi reduced alJ the farm build- i
ings to heaps of rubbish, under
which, when search was made,
the farmer's body was found.
He had evidently been killed bv I
a rifle bullet on tin* preceding
day. so that all the terrors of
artillery and melinite had been
wasted on a corpse. It is per
liaps the tirst time that the po
lice have tried heavy artillery on
one lone man.

It is not shade alone that
makes it cooler under a tree in '
summer. The coolness of the j
tree itself helps, for its tempera- '

the human body is a fraction
more than degrees. A clump

Are nerve diseases, and unless
checked, lead to destruction of
both mind and body. The
weak, shattered nerves must
have something to strengthen
and build them back to health.
Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine
is a remarkable nerve tonic and
stimulant. It strengthens the
nerves, relieves the nervous
strain, and influences refresh
ing body-building sleep and
rest. Persistent use seldom
fails to relieve these afflictions.
“I was taken with epileptic fits; had
eleven In less than 12 hours. My
father sent for our family physician,
but he could do very little for me. and
I grew worse every day. and at last
they had three doetors with me. and I
still got worse. My father heard of
Ur. Miles’ medicines and bought a
bottle of Nervine and a box of N’erv®
and Liver Pills. 1 had taken only a
few doses until I began to feel better.
I took 12 bottles, and It cured mo
sound and well. It has been worth all
the world to me. I recommend it
wherever I go. You may use this as
a life-long testimonial to the merit*
of your medicine, for l am enjoying
the best of health, and feel that my
life and health is due to this wonderful
medicine.” LEVY WILLIAMS.
