hours in Chicago {recently, and
during the interval dropped'into
one of the vaudeville theatres,

^ After a few minutes' uneasiness
one of the Englishmen turned
to the other and said:

f Literary Notes. v ?
A Richard Le Gallienne's latest *
. offering in the fiction line is a *
-quaintly amusing tale called t
-"?tnar in Central Park/' which fc
is published complete in the Jan- e
t uary Lippincott's. " *
m Lippincott's makes a special- t
"c ty of humor, not only in its d
widety quoted department *
and Wine," but in its J
Eotion. Several of the* stories
ia the January, issue are very
funny.
Edith Mac vane's latest novel, a
"The Duchess of Dreams," is
published complete in the Janu- J
ary Lippincott's. It is a won- t
derfully fine story, and marks a $
distinct advance over anything1 b
she has hitherto done. 8
Rupert Hughes, author of 5
"The Real New York" and oth- j
er notable works, both dramat- *
ic and literary, contributes a (
sketch entitled "A Vision of (
Cold" to the January Lippin- j
s cott's. It is a marvellous bit 1
^ ]
of word-painting-, and deserves 1
to take its place among tbe
} classics. \ ]

^ Worry and Allied Mental J
States," now appearing in Lippincott's,they

Leila Burton Wells, daughter ,
of General Bnrton of the Army, (
contributes a powerful tale of <
military life in the Phillpines to [
the January Lippincott's. Arrangements
are being made to
dramatize the story.
In the March issue Lippincott's
will begin an important
series of articles on "Secondary
Education," by Joseph M Rodgers,
formerly managing editor of
McClure's. While there is nothing
muckrakish about these
papers, they will deal with a
subject of national importance,
and no parent or guardian with
a boy to educate can afford to
miss them.

TENDRILS.
Moving Parts Which Are the "Brains
of Plant Life."
There are two classes of plants
which are incited by man's presence
to describe certain definite movements.
One class, the sensitive
plants, retract their leaflets as we
Approach them, as if they resented
any attempt at closer intimacy,
while the other class, comprising all
those vines which develop climbing

organs caiiea lenams, wm reaca
out toward us if we place our hands
in contact with them and will even
use a finger as a support to climb
upon. We know that these tendrils
will wind just as readily about a
twig or a grass stem, but as one
feels these sensitive strands multiply
their encircling coils about one's
lingers there almost seems to be established
between us and the vegetable
world a more intimate relationship
than has evor existed before.
Tendrils are indeed capable of
exhibiting faculties ana going
through evolutions more wonderful
perhaps than many of us realise.
It is only after we have seen them
it work, testing with their sensitive
ips the objects they come in conact
with, apparently considering
heir suitability* as a support ana
hen accepting or rejecting them,
is the case may be?it is only then
hat we realize how justly they have
>een called the ''brains of plant
ife." # .
The thoroughness with which
hese wandering tips explore their
urroundings is illustrated by an intance
I observed in a grapevine
endril. A cheny branch whose
eayes had been variously punctured
jid scalloped by insects hung near
he tendril, and a particular leaf

A Tart Old Lady.
In Indiana a good many years
go a certain old lady, summoned
s a witness, came into court wearDg
a large poke bonnet, such as
ras then much affected by rural
oiks. Her answers to the quesions
put to her being rather inListinct,
the court requested her to
peak louder, though without much
uccess.
"The court cannot hear a word
ou say, my good woman," said the
udge. "Please to take off that
luge bonnet of yours."
"Sir," she said composedly and
listinctly enough this time, "the
:ourt has a perfect right to bid
i gentleman take off his hat, but it
las no right to make a lady remove
ler bonnet."
"Madam," replied the judge, "you
leem so well acquainted with the
aw that I think you had better
>ome up and take a seat with us on
the bench."
"I thank your honor kindly," she
responded, dropping a low courtesy

Lav Notes. ,
Don't tpoak to Your Horso.
Caress must promptly reward
performance and the voice be never
used?the horse does not understand
your words, and if you are
angry your tones will only further
disconcert him?while if you are
eternally talking to him you simply
render him careless and inattentive.
Caress the spot you have just addressed
nor think that he understands
a pat on the neck as reward
for something be has Just done with
hit hind quarters. Go direct to the
spot, and where two parts have been
addressed caress them both, at in
hacking, the hind quarters and the
sides where the legs came, sic.?
and do the same thing in bitting.
Do not pat the neck if too asked
him to yield hie jaw. "Don't reward
your daughter for your son's
meoaasfol geography lesson"?that
it the idea in a nutshell?From
