An old teacher was once takintr a walk
through a forest with a scholar by his side.
The old man suddenly stopped and pointed to
four plants close at hand. The first was just
beginning to peep above the ground, the
second had rooted itself pretty well into the
earth, the third «-as a small shrub, while the
fourth and last was a full-sized tree, The
tutor said to his young companion:
“Pull up the first.”
The boy easily pulled it up with his
fingers.
“Now puli up the second.”
The youth obeyed, but not so easily.
“And now the third.”
The boy had to put forth all his strength
and use both arms before he succeeded in up
rooting it
“And now,” said the master, “try your
hand upon the fourth ”
Bet to! the trua* of the tali tree, grasped
in the arms of the youth, hardly shook its
leaves.
“This, my son* is just what happens

but only di iviaa posrer can uproot them when

Freien Food In Siberia.
The marketa of Irkutsk, In Siberia,
are an Interesting sight, for the prod
ucts offered for sale are In moot cases
frosen solid.
Fish are piled up In
etacka like so much cordwood, and
meat likewise. All kinds of fowl are
similarly frosen and piled up. Some
animals brought Into the market
whole are propped up on their legs
and have the appearance of being
actually alive, and as one goes through
the markets one seems to be surround
ed by living pigs, sheep, oxen and
fowls standing up. But, stranger yet.
even the llquhta are frozen solid and
sold In blocks. Milk Is frozen Into a
block In thia way and with a string
or a stick frozen into and projecting
from It. This? It la said, is for the
convenience of the purchaser, who la
thus enabled to carry his milk by the
string or stick handle.

Another wrong lip- 8tes
preesion is to the effect that both
measures might carry and be ia opera
tion at one and the same time. The
Attorney General states that the odo
which secures the largest vote will auto
matically annul the other. The new
dry amendment is an amendment to the
amendment now ia operation, and not a
substitute and includes by reiteration
the manufacture and sale aa already pro
vided for, as well as adding the importa
tion clause. The liquor traffic must be
expelled entirely it we are to avoid fur
ther attacks ot this nature, and common
sense demands that a prohibition state
should be ran by dry officials, in So
preme Court, Legislature and other
positions.
