If you were making a reconnoie- sance of a large area/df greatly di versified taking copious notes of the various natural characteristics observed as well as the many works of man your notes would consist to a large extent of discussions of constantly recurring types which might well be express ed by symbols. The printed or written sign lan guage is far older than the alpha bet, and there is in common use today in the United.States an offi cial sign language which so far as geographic features are concerned is sufficient to describe fully, with out the use of a single word, the most unusual area within the coun try or any of its outlying posses sions. This is the Collection of symbols and abbreviations adopted by the United States geographic board and published, with their sig nification, on a large sheet by the United States geological survey. By the use of these symbols ev erything of the nature mentioned can be described by an amateur mapmaker or can be read on any government map, and any one who has the key to the symbols can read the map and learn the character of the area so far as the map depicts it. Thus a rock in the ocean whose exact position is doubtful is repre sented by a simple sign the size of a pinhead, and an oil well or a tele graph station is indicated by an other symbol no larger. If a lake or pond is intermittently wet and dry it is represented by a symbol slightly different from that used for a regular lake, and if a section of country is covered with pines or other conifers the symbol employed to show these trees is slightly dif ferent from that used in indicating an oak forest. Some seventy sym bols are used to portray the various works and structures erected by man, from suspension bridges to mine shafts or windmills; about twenty symbols arc used to indicate different classes of land, ^ranging from sugar cane areas to cactus patches; aids to navigation and hy drographic features of all kinds are represented by many devices, and other general subjects covered are boundaries, marks and monuments and many special military features. This sheet of conventional signs is much in uso by schools and field organizations. It can be procured from the director of the geological survey, Washington.—New York Tribune.

Shea, Village Clerk master, mat mattes mmgs ing for you, doesn’t it? You find pleasant companionship s and papers.” H is Definition. A southern congressman recent ly met for the first time in some years an aged negro who was for merly in the representative’s serv ice. During their converse the con gressman learned the interesting fact that his old servant had in his advanced age learned to read. \Well now, Sam,” remarked the former master, “that makes things interesti: should fim in books and papers. “Y'essah,” oracularly assented the old man. “Headin' is shore a great thing, sah. I has given de matter considerable consideration, sah, an’ I is prepared to say, sah, dat readin’ is the power of bearin’ with the eyes.”—Lippincott’s Magazine. A Religious Flower. The Madonna lily, which has been cultivated in northern Europe since 1596, is indigenous to the Levant. Moreover, its natural blooming time there is round about the average celebration of Easter. No , o^e knows, of course, but it is not it'all unlikely that Avhen the first Easter dawned this lily was disclosing its lovely white chalices in Palestine. If this were not a substantial enough claim for the Madonna lily, there is its constant appearance in religious paintings and ecclesiastical decoration to show that it was and is the church’s sacred lily. It is, in fact, a flower fairly steeped in reli gious sentiment.—Magazine Flow ers. / Historic Bhrleker* Who Antedated the Famous Stentor. The question has often been asked, “Who was the most loud Voiced man of swer usually is,that it was Stentor, of whom Homer says his voice was as loud ae that of fifty other men combined and from whigh we get the phrase \stentorian voiced.” But we have record of two his toric “shriekers” anterior to Ho- We read where Simeon and Levi fought against the twelve men. of the city of Sarton and that Levi beheaded one man with his own sword. -In chapter 38, verse 41, of the book referred to the story is re lated in the following words: “And the sons of Jacob, seeing that they qpuld not prevail over the twelve, *meon gave a loud and tremen dous shriek, and the eleven remain ing men were stunned by the awful shriek.” In chapter 39, same book, verse 19, we find the following account of the battles of the sons of Jacob with the inhabit ^-ts of the city of Gaash. It seems as though the bat tle was both in the front and in the rear and that the warriors on the wall were throwing spears and hurl ing stones upon the sons of Jacob, What next occurred, as related in chapter and verse above cited, is recorded in these words: “And Judah, seeing that the men of Gaash were getting too heavy for them, gave a piercing and tremen dous shriek, and all the men of Gaash were terrified at Judah’s cry, and men fell from the wall at the sound of his powerful shriek, and all those that were without as well as those within the city were great ly afraid of their lives.” By Stephen P.

Two men who had quarreled vio lently and had not been on friendly terms for some months met by ac cident one night at a social func tion. One of them made a friendly overture to his enemy. Going up to him, ho offered his hand and said: “Look here, Jcnkinson, I ’ve often | been guilty of causing you consid- j e — _ . _ enable annoyance, and if I make tlOIl OH ttlC aDOVC date, that confession I dare say you won’t,.mind admitting:*pn your side that you’ve been a little unjust to me too.” — Jcnkinson took the outstretched hand and the negotiations for peace proceeded satisfactorily until, in his concluding remark, the first speak er observed, somewhat pompously: “On this pleasant and auspicious occasion, Jcnkinson, I would like you to feel that I wish you—the same as you wish me.” “What!” cried Jcnkinson angrily. “Are you beginning it again?”— London Tit-Bits. One on the Teacher. “Willie, you may correct the sen tence ‘Where was I at ?* ” “I don’t see anything wrong with it, ma’am.” ,rYou do not?\ *No, ma’am. It’s correct some times anyway.” , “Will you give me an instance in which it is used correctly?” •‘Yes’m. ‘Where was I at 3 o’clock iresterday afternoon ?’ ” — Chicago yesterday Tribune. A Well Bred Customer. In the privacy of his home the village butcher was telling his wife of the arrival of a new resident. “She came in today,” he said, with enthusiasm, “and I can tell you she’s a real lady, brought up se lect and exclusive. She don’t know one cut o’ meat from another, nor 1 veal from mutton.* 1 . . . A Change of Wind. There is an old puzzle which sup poses a man to see a squirrel on a tree. He walks round and round the tree, but the squirrel clambers round its trunk and always keeps it between himself and the man. Does the man go round the squirrel ? This recalls a famous bonmot of Andree, the arctic explorer, who was lost in trying to reach the pole. At a dinner party he was desper ately bored by a talkative neighbor. “But how will you know when you have really crossed the north pole, professor?” was the question, the last of many other equally silly ones. “Oh, that will be simple enough, madamc,” replied Andree, with his well known dry humor. “A north wind wtyl become a south one.” Walnuts of France. The best walnuts in the world— at least they have that reputation— are those grown around Grenoble, France, and n singular fact about them is that at least three-quarters of the fcntiro production arc trans ported across the ocean to be eaten in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago and other large American cities. The calcareous soil of south eastern Franco appears to be partic ularly favorable to the walnut. On the rising land at the base of the French Alps the nut trees often form veritable cultivated forests. The finest variety, the “mayettc,” has a light colored shell and a broad, flat base, on which it readily stands upright. The Higher Aim. As custom has given so large a proportion of wandering good things to Chari**0 Jamb it would seem to be in good order to credit him with the appended bit of whim sical wisdom which certainly, bears the earmarks of Elia, although the St. James’ Budget, from which it is quoted, does not vouch for Its au thenticity. Some one, it is said, complained to him that a certain writer “con stantly aimed at wit.” “At any rate,” Lamb returned, “that is better than aiming at dull- nett.” Saturday, Aug. 17, 1.00 p. m.
