LOWELL’S “WITCH FARM.”
Forest Near New York City That at
Times Appears to Have a
Farm on It
A curious glory of James Rus
sell Lowell has appeared. The
tale is printed with question
marks, says the Chicago Daily
News. It runs about .as follows
and deals with a “witch farm:”
The place is a forest near New
York, at some distance, but with
in a walk from the city. On the
edge of the forest a farm will at
times appear, which no one re
members to have ever seen, unless
he happens to be among the few
who have had the uncanny priv
ilege. There is no one about the
farm, no sound is heard, yet there
ire signs of busy occupation. Tie*
iloor is open, empty milk pails
lean against the wall, newly
leaned pans and dairy utensils
md butter churns are set out to
irv; clothes hang on the line in a
lit fie drying ground.
Whoever chances on the farm
seldom stops long to look, lb*
wilt pass on, thinking to himself:
‘I don't seem to remember that
farm. 1 must inquire about it in
town.” In town not a soul knows
anything about it. and never will
that person see the farm again,
however often he may return to
look for it. Then others will go
out to seek the witch farm. Over
and over again will they pass and
repass the very spot where it had
been seen, retracing their steps
and puzzling and saying: “It must
he there; we have mistaken the
wa v.”
There are few indeed to whom
the spectral farm has shown it
itself. Lowell himself once saw
it. On the verge of the wood he
passed a homestead which ap
peared precisely as has been de
scribed. Lowell saw it all and
passed on without thinking; then
suddenly stopped short with a
feeling of something strange,
turned and sauntered slowly back.
Rut no house at all was there and
he was unable to tind again the ex
act spot where it had been.
SHOWERS IN AFTERNOON
According to This Account They Are
More Frequent Than in the
Morning.
“I»id you over stop to thiuk
about the fart that we have more
showers in the afternoon than we
have in the morning, and the
causes which bring about this re
sult?*’ asked a man who takes an
interest in meteorological (pies
tions, says the New Orleans
Times-Democrat.
“The chief factor is the upward
movement of the air which is
brought about by the heat. You
see in clear weather the heat is
not at its height until midday.
The changes which set in as a re
suit of the air movement in the
afternoon, and the gradual with
draw'al of the sun's force as tin
orb rolls down toward the west
ern horizon will bring about just
those conditions favorable to tin
production of showers, and the
next result is the showers we sc
often experience in the afternoon
“There soems to be in this, as in
nil of nature's plans, a tine wis
dom. It would be impossible t<
measure the advantage of these
showers to plant life. Ofter
plants need resuscitation aftei
the severe heat of the day. The\
are in a wilted condition and neec
the sprinkling we give the plant*
in the flower garden. Nature doe?
the sprinkling by so?>ding a good
refreshing shower. The nfteruoo:
shower is a great institution, too
from the standpoint of human be
ings, and other animals, for an
imals, you know, frequently begir
to droop under the depressing in
tluence of severe heat. And. as?
rule, the shower is needed more ir
the afternoon than at any othei
period of time.”
Wanted the Money.
Thibetan soldiers, made prison
ers by the British, were asket
whether they would enter t} 1
British service. They said
would if they were always paid it

ISLANDS
Cruise in Northern Waterways Great*
ly Impresses Writer—Contrasts
with Other Groups..
i
Jerome Hart writes m the- < hi
cago Daily News: “1 never heard
any particular pother made over
the number of the Scandinavian
islands. I had often heard, of the
fiords,never of the islands. There
fore, 1 was surprised when we
sailed through the endless isles of
granite piercing through steel
colored swirls of sea. For the
islands around the coasts of Den
mark, Sweden and Norway and
thence across the (lulf of Kothnia
and the (iulf of Finland are liter
ally endless and they are all oi
primitive granite. There an
great islands, small islands, little
islands, islets, rocks, pinnacle*
and needles. Thousands of rhem
are na me less, a I though a 11 sn o
be eharted. routing from ' a
North rape down to llie coast of
Norway through the Skagerrack
the Kattegat, past Copenhagen
and up into tin* strait bet wee r
tiotland and Sweden, I believe-tin
sliips must pass through sewes
of thousands of islands. In on*
group alone lying off Stockholm
t be A la nds is la nils, there a re mei
300 on tlie chart.
“One of the most bofrntifu
groups of islands is that through
which the vessel passes from the
open Halfie sea to the harbor of
Stockholm.” emit inued Mr. Hart.
“I cannot even guess how many
there are in the group. Fora
couple of hours you steam through
these inland waterways, island
after island—to starboard, tr.
port, ahead and astern-—-islands
moving rhythmically around you
as far as eye ran see—in apparent
parallelograms, then lengthen
ing into rhombs, then diamond
wise, like the trees in a vast Tali
fornia orchard. The comparison
is not a forced one, for each island
is wooded so that it looks like a
large bunchy tree. Masses of
granite as the islands are, the
lurches and tirs find a footing on
them in little patches of soil in
the rocky crevices. These islands
are so rocky that the people have
constructed steps of wood or iron
in every direction over them, as
the foothold is insecure on tlie*
smooth and slipjx-iw rock.”
Contrasting these many islands
with famous groups nearer home.
Mr. Hart writes: "I had often
heard of the St. Lawrence’s
Thousand islands, yet when I first
sailed on the St. Lawrence ] was
disappointed in the number of is
lands, numerous as they are.
When I ment ioned this to a Cana
dian acquaintance the reproach
ful reply came from the Canuck:
‘Well, anyway, there are nearly
300 of them.’ ”

ly walk with a lofty cliiu. Of com
plexion black, but by design, as
the gypsies in England. They
grease themselves with bear's fat,
clarified, and, using no defense j
against sun and weather, their
skins must needs be swarthy.
Their eye is little and black. The
thick lip and fiat nose, so frequent
with the east Indians and blacks,
are not common to them, for I
have seen as comely, European
like faces among them of both
sexes as on your side the sea, and
truly an Italian complexion hath
not much more of the white, and
the noses of several of them have
as much of the Homan.
“Their language is lofty, yet nar- i
row; but, like the Hebrew in sig
nilicat ion. full. Like shorthand in
writing, one word serveth in the
place of three, and the rest are
supplied in the understanding of
the hearer; imperfect in their
lenses, wanting in their moods,
participles, adverbs, conjunc
tions, interjections. I have made
it my business to understand it,
that 1 might not want an interpre
ter on any occasion; and I must
say that 1 know not a language
spoken in Europe that has words
of more sweetness or greatness in
accent and emphasis than theirs.
“In liberality they excel. Noth
ing is too good for their friend,
(live t hem a fine gun, coat or other
thing, it may pass 20 hands before
it sticks. Light of heart, strong
affections, but soon spent. The
most light-hearted creatures that
live. They feast and dance per
petually. They never have much
nor want much. Wealth eirculat
pth like the blood. All parts par
take. and though none shall want
what another * '* yet exact ob
