Proposals and Arguments.
I will confess that I attach much
more Importance to men's theoretical
nraiimtntH than to their practical pro
posals. I attach more Importance to
what la said than to what Is done;
what Is said generally lasts much
longer and has much more influence.
I can imagine 110 change worse for
public life than that which home prlga
advocate, that debate should be cur
tailed. A man's arguments show what
h" Is really up to. 1'ntil you have
heard the defense of a proposal you
do not really know even the proposal.
Thus, for Instance. If a man says to
me, "Taste this temperance drink." I
have merely doubt, allghtly tinned with
distaste. Hut If he says, "Taste It, be
cause your wife, would make a charm
ing widow," then 1 d"dde. I would
be openly moved In my choice of an
institution, not by its immediate pro
posals for practice, but very much by
its incidental, even Its accidental, ui
lusion to Ideals. I judge many things
by their parentheses. From the
Forum.
Amazing Appetites.
The appetite of a whale Is wonder
! fill. His chief diet consists of jelly
I fish. He has simply to open Ids
j mouth and paddle along leisurely In
j order to take in Jellyfish bv the cart
load. Such Is thi method adopted by
the whalebone t whale. The sperm
whale, on the contrary, raptures huge
shoals of fish, welching often several
tons. Like his brother, the whalebone
whale he must be constantly on the
lookout for food. Otherwise he would
starve. As many as 14 seals have been
taken from a Illl Teet "killer." Othet
fishes of enormous appetites are not
uncommon. The bluefisli, for example
thrives on sardines and other small
fish. Most curious of all eaters .s tn,.
hydra, a strange creature that can, be
turned Inside out without linparliig
its appetite or its power to eat.

SHREWD MR. DOOLY
HE HAS DISCOVERED A USE FOR
"SWITCHTAIL" COWS.
Jersey Farmer Has Device (Not Pat
' ented) by Which He Makes At:i
mal Saw Weed with Her
Caudal Appendage.
John Dooly of .liicksoni!le. N. .1.,
has hit upon a plan that will heieafter .
make "s iirht.iil" cows bilng a pre
mium, Instead of. as new. b- iiu; un
marketable. Dooly s the owi.cr or a i
brindle tow that he has been e.un- ,
pelted for ears to milk himself. HI
hired men alter the first tiial of milk- j
lug the cow refused to remain longer
in Dooly's employ If compelled to put 1
up with the las.hing of old bilmlle's j
tail.
Dooly has tried for klit years to
get rid of t lie cow, but her fame has
spread over Kssex and Morris coun
ties, and a purchaser for her could not
lie found. She can i nap her tall like
ti whip, and the result Is tlmt D.,oly's
face has not been mluus several
pieces of sticking plaster for years.
Dooly said recently. "1 have been
thinking lor some time of using the
old bri'Mlle's tailpower to some good
effect, and at last hit upon a plan,
which I have now put ln;o effect with
such good results that If any of the
farmers around have any 'switchlaH'
tows they want to dispose of they will
find a buyer at the Dooly farm.
"I cut a hole through the side of the
woodshed," continued Dooly, "Just op
posite the circular saw, which we turn
by hand to cut up wood In stove
lengths, and through this hole I put a
beam, which 1 balanced just like the
walking beam of a ferryboat on the
North liver. On the Inside end I
fastened a slick leading down to the
wheel that turns the saw. On the
outside 1 fastened a rope. I tried th'1
thing and it winked flue. Driving a
slake ir.io the giound near by, 1 tied
tin.' old li:indb! to It, ami, fastening
her tail to i he beam rope, sat down to
milk. I called I Ml Dugaii, the farm
helper, and told him to feed wood to
tiie saw. lie thought ai llrst I was
crazy, but I ordered Mm to do as told.
"The next minute the old brindle
gave lie -1 lail a switch to swipe me
aercss the lace as usil.il, bill she
ctnilda't. The rope h'dd, and she could
(Wily switch her tail so far. Then she
tried in the oilier direction, with the
same result, lly this lime old brindle
'r:ni pretty mad and she jerked that
tail of hers back iiml forth as ipiick
ns lightning, and. say, that walking
beam kept going at such a rate that
you would a thought the circular saw
was being driven by a ten-horse power
engine.
"It just took la minutes to milk old
. hrittdle, and in that time she cut up
two'cords of wood Into stove lengths
No, sir, I wouldn't take $oUU for that
old brindle cow now," concluded
Dooly.
The Regular Thing.
Mr. and Mrs. Hilllngton were going

Mr. Hilllngton was nervously wait

Mrs. lilllington was still upstairs try
