A Mountain Camp.
I hnve spent one perfect nljtht on a

enough, but thin one was the pure
Idyllic moonshine. Hie dream come
true. We mnde a good Miff rnn
through the day. Lnte In the after
noon we left Snnta Fe to climb the
Glorleta puss through a country of
rolling red hills, thick with cedar,
broken by cliffs and mesas, and cut
by the deep gorge of a little stream.
We sounned the clearings with an
eager eye. At last we found the thing
we sought.

Good Possibility of Its Being Made
Into Reasonably Productive
Agricultural Country.
That the Sahara will some day
"blossom like the rose," or at any rate
like a reasonably productive agricul
tural country, Is the gist of an article
by J. Nicholas Brusse In Ls Nation of
I'arls. For more (ban a quarter of a
century, Mr. Bmsse declares, although
people In general have thought of the
Sntinrn s sn enormous, permanently
hopeless expanse of sand, those ac
quainted with the results of a geo
srsphlcfll survey conducted about 1HU1
hiive known also that the Sahara Is
not absolutely onflt for either plant or
animal life. Ruin fulls sometimes Is
the great desert and there are under
gronnd stream that could be triad
available for water. The present onset
could be developed and others created,
provided a beginning were made by
establishing strategic ronds and Intro
ducing a sense of law and order among
the desert tribes for thf security of
those who were trying to develop the
country. In Its entirety the region In
cluded In the Sahars contains already
good deal of spontaneous vegeta
tion: It grows a number of forage
plants and shrubs that serve as pas
turage for caravans, and could doubt
less be Improved and made valuable
by cultivation. Fig trees, apricots,
peaches, grapes and various cereals
have been grown In the oases.
PRINCE'S MEMORY WAS GOOD
Heir to British Throns Had One Qual
ity That Is Indispensable
to Politician.
On one occasion Mr. Louis Sterne,
an engineer and Inventor, and a
friend of Charles Dickens, showed the
lote Edward VII. then prince of
Wales, his exhibits st South Kensington-
and the Crystal palace.
"The next time I met the prince."
said Mr. Sterne, "I waa crossing
Plcadilly. at the top of St James
street In trying to escape being run
down I ran directly Into the arms
of his royal highness. He at once
recognized me and said: 'Mr. Sterne,
you should give this traffic time and
never cross the bows. I expressed
surprise that he should recognize me,
to which he replied that he never for
got either face or name If associated
with any matter of Interest." , ,
Mr. Sterne met the prince again
at a picture exhibition where a por
trait of the late W. H. Smith was
hung. Turning to the princess, his
royal highness said:
"Hallo, there's Smith I"
At once a man standing near turned
around and acknowledged the recog
nition, offering his hand, which the
prince unhesitatingly accepted. When
this man. whose name happened to
be Smith, recognized the prince, he
became embarrassed and, with the lady
who accompanied him, made his exit
as soon as possible. '
The Grey or Blue
Beauty
Shells Help Oil Geologist.
The little Jellylike animals which
the scientist calls Foramlnlfera swarm
so abundantly In the sea that their
tiny cast-off shells In some places
make up a considerable part of the
sediments which are laid down on
the sea bottom and which In time
may become beds of rock In a land
area. The small size and the com
pactness of these shells protect them
from some of the accidents that be
fall the remains of larger animals, so
that In many samples of well borings
the Foramlnlfera are the only shells
that have survived In recognizable,
form the vicissitudes of drilling. In
the hands of the specialist trained to
Identify . fossils, the Foramlnlfera
may furnish the only available clue
to the age of rock Inclosing them
nd consequently to the existence of
strata or structure favorable or un
favorable to the accumulation of oil,
gas or water, according to the United
States geological survey. -
How Word "Booze" Originated.
In the Pennsylvania museum. Memo
rial hall in Fairmount park, Phila
delphia, can be seen a collection of
highly decorated old bottles, and the
one which attracts most attention Is
the log cabin whisky bottle, molded in
the shape of a house. On one end is
the Inscription ,"120 Walnut street,
Philadelphia," together with the date,
which is "1840," on the front of the
roof. On the back ls stamped in bold
letters, "E. G. Booz's old cabin
whisky."
This erstwhile vendor of spirituous
liquor ls said to be responsible for
the use In America of the slang ap
pellation "booze," by which all kinds
of Intoxicating drinks are known to
day. Although some" etymologists give
It as being derived from the Hindu
stani word "boor.a," meaning to drink,
while others claim It Is from the
Dutch "buyzen" to tipple. The term
was good English In the fourteenth
century. ", f, t '; :
Confectionery of Anelent Egypt.
The Invention of confectionery, an
English writer guesses. Is due to Noah,
who "first hit on the idea of boiling
down the starch of. the wheat and the
juice of the grape. The result was
paste, Raid to be the original of
our present day Turkish , delight
Among the ancient Egyptians whole
fruits, particularly figs and dates,
were used for flavoring purposes, the
latter especially for preserves and
cakes. In old tombs date sweet
meats have been found, also records
of honey Jellies. The making of con
fectionery, in fact, goes back 8,400
years, proof or which ls to be found
ou the walls ' Egyptian tombs."
