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.

they wear bright cloths red

"Only three colors in trousers is

"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

trousers is only worn by the un

"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

"Blue trousers," again, is all

ilue trousers on, step up to her as
free as you please; tell her she is

not be offended if you are respect

ALLIGATORS IN VENEZUELA.
Chere Are Thousands of Them There,
But as Yet They Are of No ?
Practical Use.
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."

"Is it possible," said Tolstoi to
himself, ."that people are forbid

"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

turned to his questioner and
asked: ' .
"And you, sir can you read?"
"Yes, brother."
"And have you read the police

"Yes, brother."

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.
