the study of lichens.
A DeUghtful llranch of Science With Which
to Become Acquainted.
; They are a difficult brauch to study,
for the descriptions are shrouded in a
i mysterious language that needs an un
abridged dictionary to translate it, and
! a good microscope is necessary if one
wishes to examine their internal struo-
I ture and spores. But they are a delight-
J ful and easy branch of science to be
come acquainted with by observation.
They are to be fountf all the year
l round on stones and fence rails and on
trees. They are easy to mount and are
so fascinatingly ugly or beautiful that
they make an interesting collection. In
almost any wild bit of country there
are from 50 to 70 kinds to be found, and
even in the most civilized place, at one’s
own hearth, there are sure to bo seven
or eight species growing on the sticks of
wood laid for the fire. They are so like
and yet unlike that they sharpen the
powers of comparison and observation
I until one feels that the keen bladed
! knife and pocket lens, which are con
' stant companions in a lichen ramble,
i are dull compared with one’s owui
■ bright mind.
Lichens—and, by the way, they are
pronounced li-kens, not litch-ens—grow
in three ways, which can be easily dis
tinguished at a glance. There are crus
taceous lichens that grow close to a stone
or bark and have no leafy part, but arc
simply a few warts or dots or a stain.
There are foliaceous lichens that lie fiat.
They are green or brown or yellow
leathery plants that are something like
leaves, and that have brown or red or
pink disks on them, and there are fruti
cose lichens that grow upright like lit
tle shrubby bushes, with bright col
ored knobs.
Go to any birch tree, and there will
be seen within a stained circle some cu
rious little black marks like elfin hiero
glyphs. They are the fruit spots of a
common lichen called, very appropriate
ly, Graphis scripta. Almost any tree
one visits will have some irregular cir
cular stains upon it, especially if the
bark is quite smooth, and in tho center
there will be some brow’n or black or
W’hite specks. It is easy to collect such
crustaceous lichens by slicing off a thin
strip of the bark, largo enough to show
the outline of the stain, and by writing
the name of tho tree from which it was
taken on the bark, but it is quite a dis-
I ferent matter when one sits down beside
| a bowlder.—New York Independent
■ SENATOR VANCE MET THE ISSUE.
But the Reporter Failed to Get a Big
“Scoop** All the Same.
“I once had an experience,” said an
old newspaper man at the Press club to
a reporter, ‘‘with the late Senator
Vance which I shall never forget It was
during Crisp’s first contest for the speak
ership, and, as you all probably remem
ber, every newspaper man in town was
i hustling for inside news. The sources
I of this, as usual in such cases, were very
I few, and Senator Vance, who was act
ing in the capacity of an advisor to the
nominating caucus, had to spend most
of his time dodging journalists.
“So wary did he become that he dis
continued taking his lunch in the senate
restaurant and had it served in a com
mittee room. One day, however, 1
caught a glimpse of him passing through
one of the lower corridors on the house
side. Determined not to let him escape
me, I at once hastened forward, and in
the most innocent manner possible be
gan asking him about his health, which
! was rather bad at the time. He answer
ed all my questions in the kindest
manner possible and was about to leave
when I said:
” ‘Oh, by the W’ay, senator, who do
you think will get the nomination?’
“ ‘I don’t know exactly, ’ he replied,
‘but they will have to fight if they want
to win. ’
‘‘Certain now of my information, I
began to see the letter I was going to re
i ceive from the home office, after they
had published my big scoop, telling me
i in the most flattering terms that the
paper had decided to raise my salary on
j account of my good work.
‘‘ ‘Which side, senator?’ I asked, al
; most in a w’hisper for fear some one
j would be lurking in the dark recesses
, and hear the reply which was to make
mo the most noted hustler for news in
the ranks of journalism.
“ ‘Both sides,’ he replied as he disap
peared in the door of a committee room.
‘‘And the letter that I looked for
never came. ” —Washington Times.

‘‘The Clantys does be slow returning
what they borry, ’ ’ said Mrs. Dolan.
“Yis, ” replied Mrs. Rafferty. “Oi
niver forgit the throuble Oi had gettin
back the flatoirons Oi lint ’em wanst
out o’ the koindness av me heart. ”
‘‘An how did yez git ’em?”
“Oi sint my b’y Teddy to holler out
that the Clantys wouldn’t bo in this
country on’y St. Bathrick chased tho
snakes out av Oireland. Thin the oirons
cem over the back since fasht enough.
All Tiddy had to do wor to dodge ’em. ”

The Mexican Ag&ve,
The Mexican agave is a vegetable
growth used in making an intoxicating
wine. According to a tradition of the
! country, it was the first plant God made.
' Another species of the agave is used for
the same purpose as soap, its leaves
I when broken and rubbed together pro
| ducing a cleansing lather. It is also
I employed in poisoning fish to be eaten,
I this poison, like so many others, having
i no effect upon the person who eats the
fish. —St Louis Post-Dispatch.
To brine butter take a pound of gran
ulated sugar, a tablespoonful of salt
peter and 3 gallons of brine strong
enough to bear an egg. Boil the brine
and strain when cool. The butter should
be wrapped in cloth before placing in
the brine.
