To See the Moon.?The death of Sir
Robert Ball, the famous astronomer,
was regretted by every one of the
many thousands who have heard him
lecture, for as a lecturer he had an
unusually intimate and friendly manner
that put him on good terms w'th
his audience the moment he began to
speak.
His fund of good stories, too, was
apparently limitless. Among the anecdotes
he enjoyed telling was one relating
to the time he was at the Dunsink
Observatory.
A working man called to see him one
day, and in reply to Sir Robert's ijueshi*
urnnteil tu upb t)u> nioiin
through the telescope.
"Certainly!" replied Sir Robert:
"and if you'll come back this evening
I'll be glad to let you use the telescope."
"Can't I see it now?" asked the man
in evident astonishment.
"No, I'm afraid not," said Sir Robert.
"You must wait till the evening."
"Rut, lor' bless ye!" exclaimed the
man. "I can see it myself at night
without any old telescope."
And he walked off with an air of
great disgust.
Crossed Wires.?The girl with the
debutante slouch gasped a little. "Why;
the idea!" she said. "There must be
some mistake. He was coming to see
me at once when he got back! At
least, that was the last thing I told him.
Morgan is so shy that one has to bring
him out. He must have been ill or
something"?
"No, his health has been excellent,"
said the other girl.
"Well," snapped the girl with the
debutante slouch, "since you seem to
know so much about Morgan Spillings,
perhaps you can tell me just why I
haven't known a thing about his getting
back or why he hasn't been to see
me"?
"I am sure I don't know," said the
brisk young woman with a faint smile,
"unless it's because he has been so
busy with me. We're to be married in
June. I'm having such a lot of clothes j
made that I've got to hurry along this
minute or miss my fittings. Goodby!"
"Well. I always said Morgan was
queer!" said the girl with the debu- '
tante slouch. "I'm sure you'll be very
happy together!"?Chicago News.
Respecting His Prejudice.? There j
was a man in Cleveland who enter- i
tained many progressive ideas, and one i
of these ideas was a prejudice against <
burial. He wished to be cremated. His
weeping widow took the remains to the i
crematory in due season. 1
"How do you wish this done?" asked
the manager. I
"I know nothing about it," sobbed I
the widow. "I want his last wishes car- <
ried out. That's all I know." i
"Well, we have the French method, i
the German method and the very pop- i
ular Milanese method of cremation. ]
Have you any choice?" i
"Oh, please use the German method! i
My poor husband always hated French ]
and Italian cookery!"?Cleveland Plain ]

<t4~ A large womar with a large hat 1
was sitting in the orchestra directly in 1
front of a mild mannered gentleman '
who for the greater part of one act wf 1
unable to get a glimpse of the stage. 1
At hist, unable to endure his enforced 1
blindness, any longer, he bent forward 1
and whispered:
"Excuse me, madam, but would you '
mind removing your hat?"
"Why should I remove my hat?" re- *
torted the woman.
"Because," protested the man, "I 1
can't see the stuge, and I want to laugh '
with the rest of the audience."
"Well," replied the woman, turning 1
away, "you watch my shoulders, and '
when I laugh you laugh."
tH' There is a traditional anecdote of ,
Richard Baxter which was popularly |
current many years ago in the west of ,
England. Richard Baxter was born at ,
Rowstown, in Shopshire, in 1G15. When
he lost his wife he published for the (
edification of other pious non-com- .
formists a "broad sheet," headed "Last j
Words of Mrs. Baxter." This "broad ,
sheet" had an immense sale, and the ,
printer shortly afterward brought out .
a second and spurious "broad sheet," ,
headed "More Last Words of Mrs. Bax- |

dure this, then issued a small handbill,
with the concise asertion, "Mrs.
Baxter did not say anything else."
The Maid Had Helped.?Young Van
Winkle waited nervously in the parlor
for Julia to appear. He had been sitting
there, twiddling his thumbs, for
half an hour. Finally a step was heard
in the hall, and he rose to his feet expectantly.
But it was not Julia. It was her '
maid.
"Marie," said the impatient young '
man, "what keeps your mistress so 1
long? Is she making up her mind *
whether she'll see me or not?"
"No, sir." answered the maid, with
a wise smirk. "It isn't her mind she's '
making up."

Nothing to be Surprised At.?l*pt< n
Sinclair, who became famous through
his exposure of the methods of Chicago
beef packers, tells a story of a
game of poker in the Wild West. A
tenderfoot, looking on, saw one of the
players deal himself four aces from
the bottom of the pack. The tenderfoot
whispered indignantly to another
on-looker: "Did you see that?" t
"What?" asked the other.
"That swindler dealt himself four
aces!" the tenderfoot hissed.
? i
"Waal," was the astonished reply,
"wasn't it his deal?" _
i
Words of Wisdom.?Dr. J. M. Buck- {
ley relates that he once saw Tennyson j
in the South Kensington Meseum with s
two ladies and two children. Buckley i
circumspectly drew near, hoping to t
overhear some words of wisdom from s
the great man. He continued these Vj
tactics for an hour, but without sue- 'i
cess. Tennyson kept right on, saying li
nothing. At last Buckley detected t
some premonitory symptoms of speech |
drew softly nearer, and heard these i
never-to-be-forgotten words: t
"You hold the children while I get t
a glass of beer." n
Giving a Hint.?1 was speaking with
your father last night," said the young
man. 1
"Oh were you?" answered the sweet '
>oung girl, lowering her eyes. "What v
were you talking about?" ('
"About the likelihood of war with i"
Mexico. Your father said if there was 1
a war he hoped it would be short." '
"<)h. yes; I know papa is very much '
opposed to long engagements." '

OLD TIME TEACHERS
Were Failures Unless They Could
"Lick" Pupils.
"When I was a boy." said the old
timer, "it was considered necessary
that a hoy get a licking at least once a
month when he was at home and not
less than once a week when he was at
school," says the Topeka Capital.
"Teachers were hired more on account
of beef and muscle they carried
round thyn on account of what he
knew. The teacher who built up a reputation
for being able to lick any boy
up to the age of 21 had a cinch on getting
a job teaching in the winter.
"There were several young fellows
who attended school every winter till
they were 21, and it was the common
thing to give the teacher a whirl just
to see if he was man enough for the
job. If he came out second best he had
to give up the school, but if he cleaned
out the bunch that generally settled
it. and he had no more trouble after
that.
"Some of the young men were as big
as the average sized teacher and sometimes
bigger. Then they were used to
out-door work and were stout as young
bulls. The teacher was up against a
hard proposition but he had one thing
in his favor. If the big boys double
teamed on him, that is, came on more
than one at a time, he had the right
under the code that governed such
cases to use a club.
"One winter I went to a sort of graded
school. There were three teachers,
including the superintendent. He didn't
have to do much teaching. His principal
business was to do the licking,
and 1 never saw a man who seemed to
me to like his Job better than he did
his. He had the finest assortment of
seasoned gads, I ever saw, and for especially
aggravated cases he had a
rawhide whip that was a holy terror.
He stood about six feet two and weighed
about 220 pounds, and he wasnt fat
at that. I think he could lift about half a
ton and when he made the boy strip :
off his 'wammus' and swung that whip i
he could make the stoutest heart howl. '
The other teachers were rather good i
hearted and didn't care to see the school s
ars beat up, but if they didn't send <
about so many up for lickings each i
week he complained that they were f
loafing on their jobs and didn't amount c
to anything as instructors. i
"Nearly every boy in the school f
made a solemn vow that when he grew i
up he would lick that principal within \
an inch of his life, but I never heard of i
une of them doing it. I heard of one boy t
who did keep his pledge far enough to t
undertake it, but he regretted it after- i
ward. (
"He was about 16 when he got the r
licking that burned into his soul, also 1
into his hide. The principal had an
?xtra grouch on that day and the first
gratifying thing that happened to him
was the sending of Rob Williams up \
for punishment. He made Bob take off
lis wammus'?all the boys wore 'wammuses'?and
then lie took down the
rawhide. 'The marks of that licking 1
lasted on Bob's back for two weeks. 1
Right then and there Bob registered 1
lis vow to lick that teacher. He wait- ^
?d five years till he was 21, and then r
ook some boxing lessons rrom a man
ivho claimed to have been a prize fight?r.
Then he hunted up his teacher who
kvas not teaching that year. He was '
unning a farm. Bob sort of figured to '
iegin with that maybe the principal
ivas growing old and stiff in the Joints, v
inyway he hadn't trained in box- 1
ng. Bob discovered he had made 51
i miscalculation about his former in- 1
structor being muscle bound. (
"When the fight was over Bob was i
worse used up than he was that day
ive years before. But he wasn't alto- 11
tether discouraged. He decided to wait
ive years more and then try it again. r
hie waited the five years and hunted '
jp the school teacher again, but there '
vasn't any evidence of declining
strength on his part. He was about 4f> 1
rears old by that time, but the way he 1
dacked both of Bob's eyes, mashed his
iiibo oml J>;i 11t-ii.il him on vvaii verv I
Jiscouraglng to Bob.
"Bob never tried it again. Twentyfive
years ufter that I saw the old
:eacher. He was 70 years old and well
preserved, but he had changed his ideas
ibout school discipline. He married a
ichoolma'm when he was about 50.
They raised a family and lie told me
:liat if any teacher would beat one of
fiis boys the way he UBed to beat up
[he boys when he was a teacher, he
would have the teacher prosecuted for
issault and battery, and if that didn't
work he would go after him with a
shotgun."
THE CANAL IN WAR
rhe Strategy of Panama as Seen by a
British Expert.
Dr. Vaughan Cornish lectured recently
to a large audience at the Royal
L'nited Service Institution on " The
Strategic Aspect of the Panama Calal."
Sir George Taubman Golde
iccupied the chair. Dr. Cornish paid
visits to the Panama Isthmus in 1008,
1910 and 1912, and was afforded by the
1'nited States government facilities for
study on the spot as well as being supdied
with the official publications.
The canal, he said, should insure a
iroper distribution of the American
lavy on the eve of the outbreak of
var. If the war be on the Atlantic,
tnd the Meet be already concentrated
here, the canal would be of no further
tse during: tne war, since ine navai i
lower of the United States is based t
tpon the Atlantic jiorts. It would not, ?i
herefore, be the principal object of at- '1
ack. Hut in the case of war on the t
'acilic it would be the vulnerable part
if the line of communication. In case
if war with Japan its best protection
s its remoteness, Panama being 7,700 *
niles from Yokohama. There are few ^
stands in the eastern part of the Pailie,
and they are too far from the
resent Japanese possessions to be
uitalde for permanent naval bases for
hat power, but the Pearl Islands, for- 11
y-three miles from Panama, are quite ^
uitable for a temporary naval base to
>e used in an attack upon the canal,
.'he strategic purpose of the canal,
lowever, is not only for the support of
he .Monroe policy, the defense of the ^
'acilic states, and ??f the Philippines,
t is also to enable the United States
o have a voice in all that relates to 11
he future of China, and for this her
lav.v must be present in force on the
tsiatic side of the Pacific. a
It is an obligation of the United
states under the Hay-Pauncefote k
reaty, as well as her manifest interest "
o keep the canal open during a war to '?
rhich she is not a party, on the same
onditions as those under which the *'
iuez canal is operated during lio.stiliies.
Hut it is not part of the duty of P
he United States, ev? n if it were with- tl
li her power, to protect the routes of
he canal, and it is therefore import- o

Thus, whereas Guantanamo guards the
windward passage for American vessels,
it does not for British, and the
lefenses and harbors of Jamaica now
esume much of their old importance

position of defense and supplies

at St. Lucia -or Trinidad. During
war with a European power the canal
will chiefly be of importance to use as
i route for wheat-carrying ships from
he ports of British Columbia, but if
here were trouble between us and the
fellow race at some future time the
?anal would be the route for the naval

MOTOR BUS LINE IN ANDES
^uns on Road Along Precipice With
3,000-foot Drop.
A motor bus line put into operation in
Bolivia on April 15, climbs to an altlude
above Potosi of 17,000 feet. The

daces it is so steep that passengers
'invariably prefer to get out and
valk." Serious accidents have occurred
?n this road. It is not many years since
l coach containing ten passengers and
Irawn by six mules went over the pre ipice.
Says a writer in the Horseless
\ge, from which these facts are taken:
"The buses will always be operated

The city of Potosl, the terminus of the
ail road line leading up from the Paciic
coast, has an altitude of 14,000 feet,
weaving this city the buses will begin
i climb of Jive kilometers (a little over
hree miles) and cross the highest pass
f the Andes, at 17,000 feet elevation.
Hie average grade from Potosi to the
jass is 17 per cent, and there are doz>ns
of sharp turns. From the summit
h? re is a gradual descent for over 100
niles until the city of Sucre, capital of
Bolivia, is reached. On this portion or
he route it is necessary to cross sev ral
river heds which are dry during a
Ir.v season of eight months. During
lie remaining four months of the year
he service is stopped. The return
rip consists of a steady pull for over

"Entirely aside from the revenue de'ived
by the operating company for

TREE SURGERY
Modern Experience Recognizes It to be
of Value.
Tree surgery is an established factor
in the improving, relieving ur saving of
trees. Tn" grafting, of course, is a
long-known art, but the real surgery of
trees is where the saving of the life of
a shade tree or fr lit bearer i.? involved.
The pruning and trimming of trees is
one branch of tree surgery also, and,
unfortunately, very much misunderstood
by those who believe they know
how to trim a tree, but instead of showing
the skill of a tree surgeon in their
operations, prove themselves to be absolute
tree butchers.
The use of cement to fill decayed
cavities in tree trunks, which oj ration
often extends the life of a valuable tree
is a practical method to pursue where
the tree is large enough to support the
weight of the concrete, which hardens
and makes a firm body that will outlast
the life of any tree. Such treatment,
usually hinders further decay by cov
ering the exposed and tender interior
of the trunk, and the bark will at t'mes
grow out and around the cement filing
partially covering it, at least.
Many trees have weak limbs and de
velop bad crotches. In some cases these
result from injudicious pruning, while
often they are the expression of the
natural habit of the variety. There Is
a strain at the point where the two
large limbs meet, hence a partial splitting,
making an opening from which
the sap exudes. This leakage is unsightly;
furthermore, weak crotches of
trees are dangerous to life and property.
Especially is this true in a climate
with high winds and heavy, wet snows.
In most cases weak crotches may be
easily braced. There Is a right and a
wrong way to do this. It is not uncommon
to see the two parts held together
by a chain or iron band. These will
serve the purpose for a while, but subsequent
growth and increase in the
thickness of the tree will cause injury.
The portions of the tree bound will
gradually become choked to death. The
food which is made by the leaf is obstructed
in its course down the stem.
As a result, more wood is formed above
the band than below, causing a bulge
and ultimately the death of the part affected.
A better method of strengthening a
weak crotch is to run an iron rod
through the two limbs which form the
...wlooUol.ln A Iw.b. lo
through the two limbs a short distance
above the crotch. This hole should be
made to tit the rod as nearly as possible;
this hole will not injure the tree.
The rod should have a large head at
one end and be threaded for a large
nut at the other. The rod Is Inserted
and the nut screwed up tightly. A 1inch
rod will support a tremendous
strain, but the size will depend, of
course, upon the size of the limbs to be
braced.
An orchardist of much experience,
who has saved many a valuable fruitbearing
tree from damages done either
by accident or rodents, gives the following
directions for saving trees that
have been girdled: Orchard trees which
have been girdled may often be saved
by what is called bridge grafting. This
consists in bridging the injured parts
by means of the cions of the last season's
growth, thus connecting the part
below the wound with that above. First
trim the bark around the injured parts.
Then sharpen the ends of the cions to
a wedge shape and lit tightly into the
layer of new wood just beneath the
bark, called the cambium layer. Cover
the union at the end of the cions with
grafting wax completely to exclude the
air. Also wrap the wound with cloth
to protect it from drying out, and likewise
cover the wax with old muslin to
keep it from being melted by the sun.
If the lower edge of the wound is near
enough to the ground to make it practicable
to do so, it is better to cover it
:! or 4 inches deep'with fresh earth.
Where the trees are very young and
the girdling is severe, cutting the trunk

to withstand strong winds without danger
of being broken off. When the
sprout is well started 'iress the stump

the stub slanting at the base of the
