This manufacturer left, and soon afterward tho excitable man discovered that some one had taken his hut.

"The other day I read a letter from the manufacturing concern and was astonished to see among the names of its officers that of my excitable caller as vice president. My curiosity was aroused and I made some 1» qulrles. Now I laarn that the excit able man was so pleasantly received when he called for his hat that his anger cooled at once.

Alien, wife of the American minister to Korea, has lived for nearly twenty years In that sec* tton of tho orient, which Is now so prominently before the world Mrs. Allen was graduated from Ohio Wes leyan university at Delaware, O. (Mr. Allen's home), with her husband, and shortly after went to the far east with him when he first became interested In the orient as medical missionary for the Presbyterian church in China. This was in 1884, five years before the legation was established. She was related to the late President Hayes, Mr. Allen being a descendant of Ethan Allen of Tlconderoga fame. They had two sons, one of whom was born in Korea, the other in China. Where Our Presidents Are Buried. The strangest thing, perhaps, In ths history of Washington Is that not one of the dead presidents of the republic Is burled there. The majority of them sleep In town or city cemeteries near the homes from which they came to the White House. The fact that none of the tombs of tbe presidents is in Washington is explicable when It Is considered that none of them hav« made their homes in Washington after going out of office. Another strange fact la that onl) two cemeteries hold the bodies of more than one of the presidents. John Adams and John Quincy Adams both lie In the Congregational burying ground In Quincy, Mass., and Tyler and Monroe lie In Hollywood ceme tery, In Richmond. Five of the presi dents were burled in Virginia, four each in Ohio and New York, three In Tennessee, two in Massachusetts, and ont» each in New Hampshire, Ken tucky. Pennsylvania, Indiana and Il linois. A Cam Cutter Who Got Rlefct Mot so very long ago there lived In undon» Bog., a cutter of corns. Ev erybody knew fclm—old Wolff, the Tew. He did not aapira to the title of chiropodist—simply a cutter of corn* More than a thouaawd client* paid blm their three guineas a year. One «f them was an archbishop who, while he submitted a painful corn to tho razor, plied his persuasive tonguo upon the cutter. Here was a Jew to be converted. "Sir, if you will go on talking, I shall cut you," was the only response of Shyiock. "If I make you bleed, you'll die," was another grim way be had of silencing clients. In his dingy old room, patronized by all the lions of the Stock Exchange, and everybody who was anybody with a corn, he piled up a fortune of over six figures, and was still coining money •tp to the date of his death at the age of 84.

Ckemlcal Elements Preduce the HUM We All Know. leaf la composed of a great tjuoy ber of cells, the walls of which are brown. In the spring and summer these cells are all filled with fluid, nctored with minute grains of red, yellow and ether pigments, which, nixed together, appear green. Ia the autumn, through the eeld, oxidation and other changes take place in the '.eaf cells, destroying mere or less rapidly certain of the color elements. As soon as one of then* elements is gone the leaf no longer appears a normal green, but aseumee the shad* of the remainder of the color elo meats mixed together. When only the red element is left the leaf is red when the yellow alone remains the leaf Is yellow, and when all the color ing matter aas gone the leaf is brown. Frost is not the solr cause of the changes of color, but it is an import* ant cause. The more gradual th# changes of temperature from summef heat to winter cola the greater will be the variety and brilliancy in the color ings ol the autumn leaves.—Woman's Home Companion.

Novel Court Decision. During the severe earthquake in Guatemala, April 19, 1902, a certain block of buildings was destroyed. It was insured against fire, but not, as was stipulated in the policy, against lire occasioned by an earthquake, and In this case the fire which destroyed the buildings and the shock were al most simultaneous. The owners of the property claimed that its destruc tion was caused by the overthrowing of a lamp immediately before the earth tremors, and thus in the end the legal decision was made to hinge on the exact time when various cities on the line of movement were wrecked. Timing an earthquake by a court d» Tbe way of the transgressor is fre faentiy pared with gold bricks. Sfiipe Coal to Sweden. Two or three years ago the Domin ion Goal company of Sydney, Nova Scotia, shipped a cargo of coal to Sweden to be used as an experiment on government railways. The experi ment proved such a big success that the company now ships some 25,000 or SO,000 tons annually for general con sumption in Sweden. This year the company is to make a further experi ment In the foreign market by send ing some of its product to Mexico to be tested on the government railway there. Kills Insects by Electricity. Recently in a par^r rrad before a technical society at Odessa, Mr. Lo kuzejewski described a way of kill ing the young ef insects in fields by electricity. A dynamo is cerried on a wagon (horse or automobile), and the current excites sn induction coil, giv ing a high tension discharge. One pole of the coil is to Uis metal tires and the other to., metal, brushes pass ing over the ground. Ths ^charge kills tbe grubs, etc., In tso soli. mt-iuuai uauii,
