'' TALE OF THE ALBATROSS. j Interesting Nomadic Bird Has a .Unique Superstition -Attached to Its Life. Of all the strange creatures seen by travelers not the least interest ing is the wandering albatross. This great feathered wanderer, sometimes measuring 17 feet from tip to tip of his wings, will follow a ship for days at a time. Some travelers and sailors declare that they have seen a particular bird fly for weeks at a time without rest ing. The albatross has always been a bird of mystery, and in an cient times' the people believed that these unwearying seabirds were the companions of the Greek warrior Diomedes, who were said to have been changed into birds at the death of their chief. Though the superstition about the killing of an albatross bring ing bad luck is only a foolish one, it has served a useful purpose for manv vears in preventing the slaughter of these beautiful and gallant birds the sailors'. friends and the landsmen's wonder. Up in dreary Kamtchatka, that outlying part of Siberia which cuts into the North Pacific, the natives, never having heard of the superstition about the albatross, catch him and cat him. But his flesh makes such poor food that, after all, the legend inay.be said to hold good, for he is if. deed in bad luck who has to make a meal of it. GREAT RETINUES OF HELP. "Elillionaires' Servants Are Themselves Waited On, So Vast Is the . Household System. So huge are the establishments maintained by some of the great est millionaires of to-day that in sr-ie cases the very servants are h: rheir turn waited on by those of a .:nyer grade. The head servants in these pala tini homes live far better than mny a well-to-do citizen who v, aid think service of any kind a e Tfidation. In some great households th?

Circassian Maids and Damsels Enjoy Unique Schedule of Men's Ap- paxel Have Three Colors. j "Ever been to Circassia?" Baid the sailor. . "No, of coarse notj" the drug gist answered. "Then I'll tell you about, the trousers of the Circassian girls. 3imme," said the , temperate sailor, "a mock cocktail. : I'll tell fou about them trousers while you're mizin-up the drink. "In Circassia, Cad, the girls is ill beautiful. They have straight noses, clear eyes, white teeth and heavy haiiv They are slim, and they wear bright cloths red 3hoes, flowin' veils, sashes, trous ?rs. Their trousers is what I am goin' to tell you about. "Only three colors in trousers is worn red, white and blue. "Supposing in Circassia, you saw a girl walkin' in front of you in white trousers. If you ;was a single man the thing for you to 3o then would be to get ahead of her and, lookin' back, size her up. If you liked her looks, you might speak to her in a respectful way ask her to take a sherbet, for instance. She wouldn't be offend ?d. .Why not? Because, wearin' w hite, she'd be a single girl. White trousers is only worn by the un married in Circassia. "If you saw, glidln' along in red trousers, the most beautiful girl in the world, you'd have no right to speak to her, no matter how much her loveliness might attract you. , Red trousers is a sign the ?irl is married.. Red danger lands off. "Blue trousers," again, is all right.. If your Circassian girl has ilue trousers on, step up to her as free as you please; tell her she is ookin' well, and ask her if she wo&'t take supper with you. She'l! not be offended if you are respect ful and polite. Her blue trousers shows she is a widow. - "Circassia, Cad, is the place for 1 single man to go" that is fond of the" ladies.

The United States consul . at Maracaibo, Venezuela, in a recent report to the state department comments interestingly on the great number of alligators in "thai country. He viewed these hideous amphibians through a business ?re and wrote: "Though but few alligator skins are sent abroad from here, it is not )n account cf scarcity of alliga tors. It is strange that nobody has taken up the hinting of these rep tiles. They are here in the lakes and lagoons and rivers in untold numbers and all sizes. The skins' are well worth securing and alliga tor oil brings a high price, being used for medical purposes. In the Rio de Oro and the Rio Tarra I have seen thousands of large alli gators which came up to deposit their eggs on the sand banks dur ing the dry season. It is the same in all the hundreds of streams which flow into the lake of Mara caibo. Alligator hunting is fine sport, and in my opinion would be a paying business." Oil on Troubled Land. Oil is not only poured on the troubled waters but also on aa-i- tated terra , flrma. - Some 3,000 miles.of the roadways of Califor nia are. now treated with oil for the purpose of laying dust.

TOLSTOI UNABLE TO REPLY Famous Kussian Found Himself at a Loss When Confronted by the Officer's Argument. Once, in Moscow, near the Boro- vitchskaia gate, savs Success. Count Tolstoi saw a persistent beggar asking alms, who ex claimed: "A little penny, broth er, in the name of Christ!" A police officer approached; he was young, martial, and wrapped in the regulation sheepskin. At sight of him the beggar fled, hob bling away in fright andjiaste. "Is it possible," said Tolstoi to himself, ."that people are forbid den, to ask charity, in Christ's name in a Christian land!" "Brother," he said to the police man "can you read?" - "Yes," said the officer, politely, for Tolstoi has a grand air. "Have you a Bible?" "Yes." ' "And do you remember Christ's order to feed the hungry?" and he cited the words. The police man was evidently troubled; he turned to his questioner and asked: ' . "And you, sir can you read?" "Yes, brother." "And have you read the police regulations?" "Yes, brother." "And do you remember that begging in the main streets is for; bidden?" The prophet found no answer ready.

The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of In Use Over Thirty Years CALIFORNIA TOMATO STORY Planted in May, the Plants Climb- Twenty-Foot Trellis in About Three Months. ' Throughout the winter months when easterners were crouching about their fires and shivering, and nature growths were either asleep or frozen stiff -with the cold, F. J. Bates, of Pasadena, Cal., was in his garden climbing an 18-foot ladder to gather his va rious crops of tomatoes, says the Scientific American. He has three plants which have reached . a length of 30 feet. They are of the species Ponderosa, but these particular plants have surpassed in growth anything previously at tempted by their kind. The seeds were planted in May, and three months from that time they had climbed to the top of a 20-foot trellis. When they reached thi3: remarkable height they waved their flower-tasseled heads won deringly. then turned around and. grew backward until they have attained a length of 30 feet. As the vines are still sprinting, Jack's beanstalk must sink into obscur ity and transfer its fame to these irrepressible tomato plants. Theyv have had no especial care or cul tivation, and have had no protec tion from the weather, yet, in spite of every disadvantage, they have kept on growing and fruit ing in the most astonishing fash ion. The trunks of these vines are one and one-half inches in di ameter. The foliage is thick and luxuriant, and at all times blossoms, green - fruit and ripe fruit can be seen on the vines. Enormous - quantities of toma toes have been picked from these three plants. The fruit is of un usual size and has an extraor dinarily fine flavor. ow w
