BROGAN Copyright, l»l», W.«t«rn N.w.p.p.r Union. It was a bl«e silk umbrella, with a lovely white bracelet handle, and a Blue B engraved on the white knob. I have to lie very careful In describ ing It. for this lx part of the story. Our new professor at college Is al ways harping < preparedness," and what a great advantage It Is to suc cess. Well, tny thinking of carrying the blue umbrella that day when It looked like rain, wasn't any advantage to my success; hut that begins the story. Mother sent me down to Ballle’i for some tnffeta to match the dress she was going to wear to the reception that the faculty were giving for our noted professor; 1 hurried along, pre ferring to walk the short distance, 1 and when I met Nan Paige on the way j we stopped lirst, and had a soda. And Nan told me of the books this Pro- | fessor Lsidlow hud written on the deepest subjects, and how his picture had been In magazines, und everything, and I was Just wild to see him. She suld that he Inoked like anyone’s favorite movie actor, and was an Idol with the women wherever he went. But Will) said he was stern, too, and ould not si anil for nonsonso or familiarity from Ids pupils, and w. had better Impress him with our dig nified behavior. Non Isn't very dignified heraelf, but I can lip, on occasion. So as I walked the resl of the way alone to Bnlllo's, I decided that 1 would ask mother to let ine wear the plaltrnavy blue dress, which makes me look so old. Aunt Betty • Is critical where men are concerned, and Is always ashing who they are, and what they have ac complished, until Janet Is often pro voked,’ regarding her own young men. Janet has plenty of henus. And mother aaya that Aunt Betty might have married times over, If she lied not been so particular. Aunt Betty Is awfully pretty and Jolly. But there I stood watting for that tafTela to he wrapped up, and down came a shower, outside the street grew suddenly dark, Why suffer from nerv ousness, insomnia, hy steria, nervous dyspep sia, nervous prostration or any ailment due to a disordered condition of the nerves?

The dragon tree of the Canary Is lands. which ut first gluuce resembles a hlige piece of coral, la remarkable* not only for Its shape but also for Its extreme age. Indued, In that respect It Is a fitting rlvul, to the sequoias, or famous California redwoods. According to a correspondent of Country Life, the most celebrated dragon tree was at Orotava In Tene rife; but unfortunately a great gale destroyed It several yours ago. In 1790 Humboldt found the tree to be 46 feet In circumference and be lieved then that It had not increased In size since 1409, when .lean de Retli- ! encourt, conqueror of the Cunarles, , described the tree as lurge and hol- , low. Although Humboldt estimated the age at six thousand years, Kerner ' In his natural history of pluuts says he should not like to guarantee that 1 the tree Is quite so old. | The dragon tree Is renlly an ar borescent Illy somewhat like a palm In growth, but branching when old. Once very plentiful Id the Canaries, the trees have liven much reduced In numbers, und of those tluit still re main the one at Lugutm, Is the finest. Still fur from Its prime. It Is esti mated to he more than three thousand years old. From the hark of those trees exudes a blood-red resinous gum that be comes hard, and -that formerly was collectdd and expoMnl in lurge quan tities. It was considered ns of great medicinal value und was known com mercially as “dragon's blood." But hen the trees became source the trade ceased so far us the Cnimry Is lands are concerned; the present "dra gon's blood" of commerce Is ohlulned from trees of allied species In India and Africa.—Youth's Companion.

Try it SANITARY STEAM BAKING CO. and I was glad tfiat I had brought my umbrella. I drew It with some diffi culty from before a man who stood beside nje at the counter, and stared reprovingly at him, when he failed to beg my pardon. And as I was hurry ing down the aisle that man came after me. Tills time he did any “lleg pardon," but It was with the alTrontery of claiming the umbrella, or trying to claim It, for I certainly did not give It up to hint. "Beg pardon," he began, "you have tuken my umbrella, under a mistaken Impression, no doubt, that It is yours." "Mistaken?" 1 asked disdainfully, “1 certainly know my own blue silk umbrella. You will notice the letter II; my name begins with H." The man stood still und stared at me dis concertingly. "Notwithstanding the fact of your name beginning with B," he sold, "the umbrella la mine." A crowding femnle with two Jostling hoys lit her side came betwi Just then, slid I fairly laughed hack at the Imposter over their heads, then to save trouble and publicity, I ran out of the store, and down the street hiuI on to a street car; and It was not until I had handed In my fare that I took tlmy to realize how brazen that nfltn Imd been. And he mis a nice looking man too, with line features tluit any physiognomist would sny placed him above petty crime. When I took the tnITcta Into mother, Aunt Betty was there, and Janet, and they were all talking excitedly about (lie evening’s guest of honor, whom Adnt Betty called "a young man of sterling character." Nlin had spoken more concerning jilts eyes. Which reminded what very nlco eyes the thief had For even if It's only an umbrella you ure trying to stent, you're a thief. And by" and by when I'd got second best dreHs, I started down the atalr. Aunt Betty wus going to have one of her friends In to dinner. And then I stood stock-still on the stair, For she was talking to her friend In the hall that minute, and he was my umbrella man. Yes, renlly. And couldn't help hearing him apologize r to, her for not bringing back an um hrella she'd loaned him, and which he Inalated, had been pulled right out from under hit arm In a store. And all at once I felt chilly; for the reason that Janet had given me a blue silk ^umbrella for Christmas was because I had so admired Aunt Betty's, and Aunt Betty Balsley's name, naturally, beglna with a B. So there I stood, mystified, yet be ginning uncomfortably to see daylight For It occurred to me that perhaps I had forgotten to take my umbrella with me to Battle's store, which upon later Investigation proved to be true. The two silk umbrellas with their white bracelets Btood side by side in my clothespress. And when I came guiltily Into the dining room, you may fancy uiy next humiliation. "Bab's, said Aunt Betty, “let me Introduce you to Mr. I.aldlaw, the new college pro fessor,' Well, I don't know how I over should have come out If It had not- blessedly happened that Professor Lnldlnw Is to tie one of our family He’s engaged to Aimt Betty. And he really wus a good sport, and left me out of tils explanations when lie was able later to return Aunt Betty's property. But, ns Nan says, tt was all perfectly thrlltlug. From Africa. The “Greatest Show on Earth”— one pf them—was touring Georgia and having trouble with Its small but select menagerie, * Therefore, the manage ment of the show advertised for an assistant uiilmnl trainer. A husky black gentleman applied, was accept ed and went !o work. ,, When the time ciiuie to feed the animals, though, his nerve faltered, especially alien he was obliged TO open the lion s' cage. "Oh, Lnwfll" he prayed, "ns yo' was wld Diiii'I In de lion's den, so ho wld me now." Whereupon a voice Issued from the king of beiists: 'Nebhnh mind do Lord und Pnn'l, big hoy.
