" ' ' ; *.'* i One superstition that Is firmly rooted" in tlhe'miiHls of all Great Xakes j navigators concerns the mysterious wreck of the Bannockburn. "She was a big, powerful freighter, carrying a crew of 22 men. She cleared Duluth on a day In the late fall. What happened to her will never be known. I sue went out iu iiie uiuruiu&, auu nao j last sighted the next evening. That was the end. For more than a year , the chill water of Lake Superior guarded well their secret. Then one day an oar was found floating along the i driftwood of the bleak north shore. I A piece of tarpaulin was wrapped se! curely around it, and when this was I removed It was found that the word : Bannockburn was scraped into the i wood. The oar is all that remains today to tell the story of the missing freighter. j "According ro ine queer iwisl gircu the story by the sailors of the inland seas, the Bannockburn is supposed to be the Flying Dutchman of the Great Lakes. Sometimes at night, when the chili north wind sweeps across the swollen bosom of Lake Superior and the stinging 'ice devils' fill the air, the lookeut on some lonely point calls loudly to his companions and points j to where he imagines the Bannock| burn, an \&ite with ice and ghastly ! in the darkness, is slipping through : the black mystery of the lake." I j 'NO GOOD OF THE OPENWORK' I ? J Thft Wat Why Queenie, Dark-Skinned, Put ?n Pairtf Pink Stockings ' * Under the BJack Ones. Queenie, seveote&i, comely, a pleasant dark-brown in complexion, appeared in openwork stockings at the apartment of I*er employer and prepared to scrub the floor. ; Tfte laoor entaneu a couaiuerauic ' ?howin# of stocking. The mistress of the house, glancing at this display, observed the openwork and was roys| titled by an extraordinary color effect. Queenle Is a very pretty ritgress, but she is obviously of pure African strain. ; Yet through the interstices of the openI work there undoubtedly were to be had glimpses of a delicate pale flesh color, j Could it be a str^age example of racial admixture? Was Queenie afflicted with flesh-colored supporters for her brown body? | "What in the world, child," d?mandi ed her mistress; "you aren't pink un i derneath, are you," ! "Got a pair of pink stockings on underneath the black ones," grinned Queenie. 4'When I fust put 'em on by ; jtheirselves I ?0$ Jflf the MT every sense of the v leered merchandise, values are offered m V v -W - anJ ylish Fail Suits lity French sergz, pc; itly tailored, pleated cn They come in all the r or dress we sell we gua $15.00, $18.50, $: 30,00, and $35.00. r - - ~F. 1 17. es TOT LsUK.1 yuuu.y r connection in the big i. han any merchant in th\ iyes.

The most destructive enemy or tm cabbage and related crops is the cab bage butterfly. This lays its egg: Uf>on a cabbage leaf; the eggs hatcl into green caterpillars and these ea the leaves. In 1883, says the Journa of Heredity, an ichneumon fly was im ported from Europe to keep the cab bage butterfly in check. The fly layi its eggs in the body of the caterpillar the larvae which hatch from these eggj ' - ? : v.ol. eat tne caierpnmr? iuaiuw, ?_ui iu^k way out through the empty skin anc spin cocoons from which the flies emerge.

The bald-headed eagle is a sea-eagle selected as the national emblem of the ; United States, Its markings are familiar, though the term "bald" is td be referred, not to the absence of feathers, but to the effect produced by thf white feathers on the head.

The baldheaded eagle lives mainly upon the fish which it seizes along the seashore and around lakes and rivers. The nest is built on a high treetop or upon a rocky cliff. The eagle is used as an j emblem on coins of the value of a quar; ter and above. The gold coin of the United States valued at $10 is called ii js I an eagle.
