Of h concert giviiii at Lawrence
Kan liht week a h eal paper says:
Among tbe especially Interesting
numbers was the 'cello solo bv Mi
Adams in "Ain Haskyr" by PUtti.
which represents an old Spanish In-
strument known as a "La Haquira."
It is a combination instrument of a
cylinder which by steady friction
draws a bow sound from cat gut
string. Miss Adams' imitation was
grfai.
Other loterestlng numbers wen the
soprano solos by Miss Sherwood "Ah
Love but a day" and "The Lai-s with
a Delicate Air." She responded to
the encores by a number of catchy
darkey melodies.
The members of the company are
all artists and should they jeturn to

cordial reception.

MOTHER'S FRUIT CAKE-
It Wan b Hiur One Hut tbe i:ipre
ClinrKea Wrre a l.lttle
Hit liittxer.
The woman who was telling the Uory
was the best gowutd of all the women
In the cafe. It seemed to amuse the
company around htr table and eouie at
near-by scats couldn't htlp liHttLing to
it relates the New York Sun.
"I never gee a piece of fruit or pound
cake that I don't think of my poor dear
mother out In Kansas." she was saying.
"Did I ever ttll you about the cake she
sent me? Well it was the first Christ
mas I was in New York.
trom my chill little bedroom in a
room'ns house half way up town I uned
to write to her the rosiest letters of my
progress and expectations. Ituted to
cheer my gloomiest hours to see what
lies I could put down on paper for the
gratification and comfort of the little
old lady. One night when I hadn't had
any dinner I renumber sending her a
luiig letter about plans I was making
to bring my little sister east and give
her Ihe education she ought to have.
"A few days before Christmas I got a
letter in mother's own labored writing.
She said she knew I hankered for a
taste of the fruit cake we always had
at home at Christmas time and she had
made a whole big one for me and bad
shipped It by express.
"I promised myself that with one of
mother's nourishing fruit cakes at band
I would be able to sustain myself on the
off days and I eat In expectancy next
day when the bell rang and the maid
came tolling up the two flights to tell
me that thtre waa a package for me.
"The exprtssman climbed up with a
round parcel almost as big as a wash-
tub. He tuld up the book for me to
sign and remarked Incidentally
'charges are J6.4." ma'am.' Mother had
sent It collect all the way from the lit-
tle Kansas town.
"Six forty-five! The fruit cake waf as
far beyond my reach as a Tiffany tiara.
So the expressman bore It away while 1
muttered somfthing about dropping
into his office with the money as toon as
I had been to the bank. Then I wrote
a strictly private cote to my little sis-
ter telling her to Uar up any notict
that might be sent to mother by the
company telling her the parcel was un-
delivered. I have an idea they have
some such system. Haven't they?
"Then I sat down and wrote a freit
letter to mother telling her how mucr
I had enjoyed the cake and describing
all the fictitious persons who had shared
It with me and who sent tholr con-
gratulations to her on her skill as t
cakemaker. I ran out and mailed th(
letter and went back and cried mysel:
to sleep."
"And that was the end of the cake?'
asked one of the women at the table.
"Oh no" continued the narrator
"Three months later I went to the auc-
tion sale of unclaimed express backaget
and' bid It in for 43 cents. Mother'
fruit cake la so wholesome and solid thai
it will keep for a year. If you'll all
come up to the house now each of yoi;
shall have a small piece."
"What!" exclaimed one of the men.
"Was this event as rrctrt as that?"
The story-teikr smiled bewitehlnply.
"You know" she tald turning her look
to the fat and apoplectic person whr
was presumptively the husband "It waf
a case of love at first sight with Mr.
X and me."
"Yes" absented the fat one. "and
we've just shipped to mother a fruit
cake that's so crammed with J20 gold
pieces that there's no room for raisins."
"Sir I don't trunk I quite catch the
drift of your remarks" said the haughty
niaid who stemed to have suddenly de-
veloped a case of refrigerator heart.
"Well I seem to catch your drift all
right all right" rejoined the young man
who had been trying to frame up a pro-
posal. "U seems to be something on the

LRAIN ASLEEP KEEPS TIME.
Wrapt lit Milliliter Man lln llf-lter
lilcu of Hour Thuu W lieu
Awake.
That a man may have a better idr a of
the time of night when he. awakena
from a good sleep than he would have
of the lime of day provided he we're
working unusually hard with unusual
lutentuess of purpose la one of the odd
facts connected with the operation of the
human brain says the Chicago Tribune.
lint on the other hand If a man may
work with men intensity of purpose as
to forget the lapse of two or three hours
of daylight so he may sleep with a
soundness that prevents the little time-
keeper of the brain from making sub-
conscious note of the hour hand of the
clock In the night. As between the two
conditions however it is the opinion of
Dr. 0. A. King professor of nervous dis-
eases in the College of Physicians and
Surgeons that the awakened sleeper
usually has a better Idea of the flight of
the night than the other may haveof the
flight of the day.
"Under ordinary circumstances the
person who is In normal sleep is not
asleep" said the doctor. "That one nook
In the brain which takes cognizance of
time is alert to an extent not appreciated
by the layman. Awakening at any time
in the night the person in good health
and condition knows pretty closely
whether it Is midnight or after or
whether It be nearer two o'clock in the
morning than It It to four o'clock. Many-
persons have the fatuity so cultivated
that they know within the quarter hours
of the exact time.
"On the other hand It is a common ex-
pression with persons In all line of work
suddenly to look at the clock and ex-
press the keenest surprise that It Is so
late In the afternoon or the evening;
and occasionally one who ha? been work-
ing to poor advantage and under dif-
ficulties will be surprised on looking at
his watch that it is so early.
"That the brain In sleep keeps this
tally upon the time Is proved by the in
fluences of anaesthetics. A person who
has bi en profoundly under the Influence
of any drug used for the purpose will be
as utterly unconscious of the passing of
ten minutes as he will be unconscious
of the passing of an hour. He may be
forgetful of all conditions leading up to
the state of anaesthesia and for the time
being he may have forgotten the day of
the week.
"As to the time measurement In sleep
It is best represented In the person used
to travel and to the catching of trains In
the night. Many of these persons will be
able to awaken at an hour giving them
Just the margin needed for preparation
for the train.
"One of the peculiarities of a person's
waking for a train or for any such emer-
gency la that the awakening always Is
sudden. There is none of the prelimi-
nary yawning and stretching and slow-
ly returning sense of luxurious rest and
comfort felt by the man who has slept
a full sleep. In this awakening to a
certain time the person frequently feels
that impression of a sudden sound wL!c!
he knows cannot have been made or
littered. Not infrequently he has the
sense that some one has called his name.
He may be almost certain that he has
heard his first name 'George?' called
with the eharaeterl.-tlc rising Inflection.
In almost any case his awakening is
without any premonitory symHoms. It
Is with a sort of jolt that he comes Into
full fledged consciousness. In such cases
as those where the sleep Is profound be-
yond any consciousness of the time the
dream period of shep It left far behind;
the sleep has approached the depth of
anaesthesia."
One of the oddities ofsleep was referred
to In which a person may lie down for
rest without Intending to sleep. It may-
be morning or afternoon but the fatigue
that prompt; the person to lie down
overcomes him and after a sound sleep
he awa.-rs without any knowledge of
time In any sense. He does cot realize
whether it Is morning or afternoon;
whether he has had luncheon or wheth-
er he may not have slrpt through a day
and a night and awal ei.eti into another
day. It Is the opinion cl Dr. Kit g that in
such a case the pfrson experiencing the
sensations probably is not la a normal
state of health.
As an example cf sle p that should be
natural and dost to thece sitnof nature
and of an awakenii:? that Ehould be
normal without the effect of an artificial
civilization crowding it. the babe which
has rested to the full and begins to
arouse itself from slum btr Is an Interest-
ing study.
Chloroform for I'lnnln.
Albert Maumene In the Review Scl-
entifique. Pari referring o experi-
ments of M. Johannsen cf the Agricul-
tural school of Copenhagen gives it as
his opinion that by the use of anes-
thetics such as ether and chloroform
early forcing in plant development by
present methods will all be superseded
since the anesthetizing process makes
possible the flowering of these plants
four tr five mouths earlier than the or-
dinary methods of forcing.

Tlirowlna: Dog; Off the Scent.
If a layer of stiff brown paper Is glued
to the sides and soles of the usual shoot-
ing boeits a dog will not follow its mas-
ter's tracks but when the paper gets
worn through at the heels so that it
touches the ground the scent is caught
at once and speedily followed.
