In tall grass the dandeâ€" lion grows upright, taking the form of the erectâ€"growing Cos Lettuce, or Swiss Chard. Now, if that grass is cut and kept cut the dandeiion plant that formerly sent its leaves almost perpenâ€" Meularly into the air sends them out almost horizontally. ‘ Why? If you will take a tin can . and a glass jar and place them over dandelion plants on the lawn and leave them undisturbed for a day or two you will be astonished at the differâ€" ence in the growth of the two plants. The dandelion growing under the glass Jar will be found apparently just as it was In the beginning. But when the tin can is removed a plant will be seen that is shooting its leaves up into the air just as did the dandelion in the tall grass. . Light! causes the upper sides of the leaves to' grow more rapidly than the lower sideos, so that they more closely apâ€" proach the horizontal as the ligh* beâ€" comes more intense.

Menâ€" nard occurs as a variation sometimes When the conquering Goths swept down over the ruins of the Roman emâ€" pire they quickly adopted the superior language and civilization of their foes, but naturally did not change their own names, which in the course of time have been modified rather than abanâ€" doned. "Maegenheard" was a given name in which were combined the roots of our modern English words, "might" and The name of "Maegenheard" does not sound very French. As a matter of fact it is distinctly Teutonic. Yet it should be remembered that while the French language is a modified deâ€" velopment of Latin, the names of the French are in the big majority of cases of Teutonic origin, for ancient Gothic blood preponderates in modern French veins (certain localities excepted), beâ€" ing in somewhat greater percentage than that of the original Gauls or Celts, and overwhelmingly greater than Roman blood.

We are in trouble without a match, when our newspaper is not on hand there is a vacancy in our lives, and in numerous other matters the products of the forest are indispensable.

To this, of curse, must be added the inâ€" creased value due to processes of manufacture through which wood passâ€" es in reaching its complete form. This would at least double its value, and make a total well over six hundred‘ million dollars. The one and oneâ€"half | million dollars, therefore, would repreâ€"| sent an insurance cost equal only to about oneâ€"half of one per cent. of the value of the product of the forest. One and oneâ€"half million dollars plus «â€"â€"â€" is the amount of the protection supplied from all sources to the Canaâ€" dian forests. The plus represents the interest of the people of this country in the forests and tho‘r care in preâ€" serving them from fires. It is upon this latter the future of the forest and of the products of the forest are deâ€" pendent. The money expended is largely used to guard against and counteract the carelessness of our peoâ€" ple with fire. x A Peeled Birch Tree.

A few spiders, among which are tarantulas, are venomous; so are scorpions and centipedes. Their bite causes an inâ€" flammatory and often painful swelling together with general symptoms such as dizziness, faintness, nausea, blurred vision, headache, numbness of the exâ€" tremities and sometimes even slight paralysis. In the case of children the symptoms may be alarming, and with infants the result may be fatal. It is best to apply ammonia to the bite at once and to give strong coffee or somel other stimulant to drink. _ Attacks of insects, especially of the fiying ones, can be more or less preâ€" vented by the external use of oil of citronella, cedar oil or kerosene. The most serious stings are inflicted by outdoor insectsâ€"ants, bees, wasps, hornets, spiders, tarantulas, scorpions and centipedes. The ordinary ants of temperate regions are not formidable, though black ants may inflict a someâ€" what painful sting. In the tropics some of the ants are vicious and dangerous on account of their numbers. Tales are told of ants surrounding men and animals and actually killing and eat-‘ ing them. | _ The parasites of man and of his ’ couch and also the flying bloodsuckers | such as gnats and mosquitoes, inflict a painless sting, but one nevertheless ithat causes swelling and considerable itching. _ The irritation is owing to formic acid or some other substance that the insect injects for the purpose of thinning the blood and preventing its coagulating until it can be sucked in. The itching ceases when the acid is neutralized by an alkaline applicaâ€" tion such as ammonia, soda, limewater, glycerin or soap. The application should be made immediately after the bite, before scratching has abraded the skin and has given opportunity for the germs of inflammation to infect it The insect enemies of man are numerous, especially in the tropics and in the North during the summer, and their stings are often extremely painâ€" ful; fortunately, however, they are selâ€" dom dangerous. Plants with sweetâ€"smelling flowers are more common in dry than in molst climates. Thyme, sage and lavender, for instance, bloom profusely on dry uplands and fill the air with their scent, but the wild flowers of low or swampy ground are seldom highly scented, and if they are their odors are unpleasant. Among scarlet flowers there is not one which has any scent. As a rule, the more brilliant the color of a flower, the less likely it is to be scertâ€" Among white flowers only fifteen out of a hundred have any scent; among yellow and violet each about nine per cent. Few blue flowers are scented, the most notable exception being probâ€" ably the Roman bhyacinth, which, whether double or single, is deliciously fragrant. _ Another shrub, the Chinese hydranâ€" gea, has flowers which are green when they first open and change later to a rose color. Third in the list is the Cheiranthus mutabilis, of which the blossom changes from yellow to orange, then to red, and ends by beâ€" coming a deep purple. Even so comâ€" mon a flower as the phlox is first blue and then pink, while theâ€"forgetâ€"meâ€"not changes from a yellow tint to its true and beautiful blue. i There are many curious points about the colors of flowers. According to a list complled by a botanist ,out of a thousand different species of flowers, 287 are white, 223 yellow, 222 red, 144 blue, 72 viciet, 36 green, 12 orange, and 4 brown. The botanist speaks of two , varieties as black, but it is generally ! understood that there is no such thing as an absolutely black flower. | _ _Have you ever noticed that the pre _vailing color of early spring flowers is yellow? The buttercup, daffodil, primrose, and cowslip are examples, More than one flower changes its color during its period of blooming. For instance, the beautiful double flowers of the Hebigcus mutabilis are white on opening in the morning, beâ€" come pink at ncon, turn red at sunâ€" get, and at night fade to a bluish tint. The tree is a native of China and Japan, but grows ailso in the East and West Indies. No Scarlet Flowers Have THLETES! Fierce Variety. Fish Niggerin‘? life try. Minard‘s.

' It is probable that very few persons are aware of the fact that the full ‘ moon gives several times more than | twice the light of the half moon.
