Many people suppose that moonlight possesses great potency and has a won derful influence on or over animate and Inanimate things on' our planet Such, persons should remember that moonlight Is only reflected sunlight and that the quality and quantity of the light thus reflected are not what Is generally Imagined. In fact, It Is a truth wblcb has often been demonstrat ed by the speculative astronomers that It would take 013,000 full moons to afford an amount of light equal to that emitted by the sun, and, furthermore, there Is only sky space for 78,000 such disks. Some heat comes from moon light However, It Is In quantities so small that it cannot be measured by ordinary Instruments. Flammarlon says that the amount of beat emitted by a full moon while at Its tenlth can- Dot be more than one eighty-thousandth of the amount that the sun sup piles when standing on the meridian on a favorable day in July. Such be ing the case, It Is really surprising that intelligent people should consider that the moon has such a wonderful Influence" over terrestrial affairs.

Buffel pikker Is Its Dutch name. Its habits are remarkable and Its plum age unusual. Small flocks accompany most of the large antelopes, the buffa loes and the rhinoceroses in South Af rica and run all over the creatures' bodies, picking off flies and Insects. When an enemy approaches the buffel plkkers sit In a line with beads raised on the back of the animal they are at tending, like sparrows on a roof ridge, and signal "the enemy In sight" The plumage Is curiously close, uniform and compact, so much so that the bird has an artificial look, as If covered with painted satin and not with feathers. The general tint of the body is cinna mon brown, with yellow beak and legs, giving the color effect of a brown and yellow Iris. A Crank's $25 Spring Suit Free. Four other beautiful Prizes.

Very few London dealers Indeed are competent to Judge Turner's works that Is, without a certified history. A lady acquaintance of mine had a large picture In her bouse wblcb she bad al ways regarded as a Turner, and, desir ing to sell It abe offered It to five or six of the leading dealers, but not one of them would buy It at any price, as serting that Turner never saw It and that It was nothing like his work, and so on. A few months afterward a doc ument turned up among her family pa pers showing that the picture bad been specially painted by Turner for her husband's father, and In a week she bad sold the work for 2,250. The av erage dealer Is almost frightened to touch a Turner, and you seldom or nev er see one exposed for sale In the gal leries. Chambers' Journal. Ovr Foolish Alphabet. Why. think of It!

Color and Arnnin of Coffee. There are two tiling which people Imagine are guides to the goodness of coffee which are really of no conse quence whatever. They are the color of the deletion and the aroma of the coffee when ground or as It escapes from the p-jt In drawing. The color Is due almost entirely to the roasting. This Is true also of tea. The finest coffees uud teas, when properly roast ed and prepared, to give out their finest flavors will color the water but little. The real essences which give the flavor have practically no color.
