HUMAN JEALOUSY
the Difference Dctnecn the Pminlon
In a Blan nnd n Woman
The ranns jealousy is n stormy seit
flooding everything tearing down and
devouring everything in him that is
strong filling his innermost heart ab
sorbing all rivers of feeling and de
stroying his mind The womans jeal
ousy Is a narrow turbulent treacherous
torrent which hides Its depth and high
above which rise hard and silent banks
it heightens her sensibility and
Btrengthens her mind
The jealous man is a wrathful lion
he is noble and hunger only forces him
to tear his prey to pieces The jealous
woman is an infuriated snake she Is
vain and passion only tempts her to
sting The anger of the jealous man is
directed against the object of his love
and interrupts his love and that of the
jealous woman is directed against her
rivals and her love is intensified by it
Jealousy makes a fool of a man it
makes him ridiculous and lowers him in
the love and esteem of the woman but
a woman gains in wit and charm by her
jealousy and it makes her more attrac
tive to the man Jealousy is a terrible
sharp weapon which a woman uses
lightly in order to cut a few sweets on
which to feed her vanity often she even
wounds with it the man she loves in
order to enjoy his sufferings The man
disdains this cruel thing though did he
use it it would rarely miss its object
of awakening the dormant love of a
woman of bringing hidden love to the
surface and of creating love where
there was none From The German

PYGMY HIPPO AND ELAND
Trvo Animals of Africa That
Aro
Practically Unlcnovrn
There are two animals practically un
known to the outside world These are
the pygmy or Liberian hippopotamus
and the Derbian eland The first named
is just what its name implies a pygmy
hippopotamus differing from the larger
and common variety In three respects
only In the first place It is much
smaller than the common Hippopota
mus amphibius being no larger than
an ordinary fair sized hog in the sec
ond place it differs somewhat from the
common hippo in the character of its
teeth and in the third place instead
of spending its time in the rivers and
lakes in large herds It -wanders about
through the jungles singly or In pairs
much after the manner of swine in
search of mast Owing to the fact that
it does not go in herds and is hard to
distinguish against the dark back
ground of jungle thickets it is an ex
ceedingly difficult animal to hunt or
find If anything the legs of the dwarf
Liberian hippopotamus are a trifle lon
ger in proportion than are those of the
common river hippopotamus
Next to the Liberian hippopotamus
the Derbian eland of west Africa
which the Mandingoes call jinke jan
ko is today the least known of all
rare and strange animals Outing

Aldus Manutius a printer in Venice

ployed a negro boy to help him in his
office The boy -was believed to be an
imp of satan and svent by the name of
the printers devil In order to pro

a foolish superstition Manutius made a
The Lawyers Habit
The legal formality of addressing a
court sticks to many a lawyer of con
gressional preferment It is nothing un
usual to hear an Impassioned orator in
the house pausing in his argument or
breaking in upon the argument of an
other exclaim Now if your honor
please Of course the house always
marks the slip with a burst of loud
laughter In the senate where there
are also many lawyers it is rarer to
hear the familiar words because de
bate there is more sedate

SOOTHING A HORSE
Iic Animals Eny Introduction n
Stenin Street Roller
In one of the broad uptown thorough
fares a few days ago a mounted pa
trolman encountered a steam roller In
action and the horse was terribly
frightened It rea ed and balked and
then made angles across the street
first one way and then the other until
the policeman jumped off and tried
coaxing Leading his mount step by
step in the direction of the roller
which had come to a standstill he pet
ted the animal and talked to it urging
it forward
A fine horse like you to be afraid
of a steam roller said the policeman
The horse pricked up Its ears and ven
tured ahead another step or two
Come now come along You cant
be a policeman and be afraid of a bit
of Iron Now come on good boy
The horse made a few more steps for
ward
Come on continued the policeman
Now then be good The department
cant afford to be giving 300 apiece for
horses that havent any nerve Come
on now
Coaxing it along in this way with In
finite patience the officer after several
minutes got the animal up to the roller
The horse daintily put forward one foot
and tapped the front of the iron wheel
waited a moment and finding that the
machine did not kick or run reared
contemptuously and tapped the object
with both feet then wheeled and walk
ed quietly away The policeman re
mounted and It is safe to say that
horse will never bother about a steam
roller again New York Post
HISTORY OF SHOES
In No Article of Attire Have More
Vaprarles Dcen ShoTvn
Shoes or their equivalent are of a
certainty even more ancient than
gloves for they were a necessity of lo
comotion while the other was but a
luxury Sometimes they were made of
skins sometimes of papyrus as in
Egypt Often they were gilded and
decked with jewels and the most ex
pert artists of the day were employed
to decorate the foot coverings of
wealthy patricians consuls emperors
and their favorites In no article of at
tire have more vagaries been shown
Today a lady who desires to be consid
ered in the height of fashion wears
shoes pointed as much as possible but
in the time of Queen Mary the taste
was all the other way and it was
found necessary to issue a royal procla
mation prohibiting shoes -with toes
wider than six inches But perhaps the
most extraordinary development in the
way of footgear were the chopines in
troduced by the ladies of Venice to
make themselves taller than they really
were The articles were really a kind
of stilts made of wood and leather and
sometimes reached the absurd height
of twelve inches Even a trained acro
bat would have difficulty in walking on
such things and ordinary -women had
such trouble with them that when they
attempted a promenade they required
the assistance of a servant at each side
and another behind to keep them from
falling From Redferns Royal and

Thnddens Stevens Wit
When Thaddeus Stevens had taken
public exhibition of the boy and an 1 to his bed for the last time a visitor
nounced that any one who doubted him
to be flesh and blood might come for
ward and pinch him to make sure The
mistaken impression -was removed but
before this time the name printers
devil had been attached to the boy and
was thenceforth applied generally to
the boyish assistants in a printing of
fice
Ruler of Russias Title
The general allusion to the ruler of
Russia as the czar is strictly speaking
Incorrect His official title is em
peror and autocrat Czar is the old
Russian word for lord or prince and
was abandoned by Peter the Great on
his triumphal return from Poltava his
crowning victory over Charles XIL
of Sweden Since then the Russian
monarch has been officially entitled
emperor and at the congress of Vien
na in 1815 his right to the imperial
term was admitted by the powers
with the proviso that though he was
emperor he had no precedence over
the kings of western Europe St
James Gazette
told him he was looking well Oh
John was the quick reply it is not
my appearance but my disappearance
that troubles me One day a mem
ber of the house of representatives who
was noted for his uncertain course on
all questions and who confessed that
he never investigated a point under
discussion without finding himself a
neutral asked for leave of absence
Mr Speaker said Stevens I do
not rise to object but to suggest that
the honorable member need not ask
this favor for he can easily pair off
with himself
Evolution of the Skate
The earliest known skates were those
roughly shaped from the canon bone of
a horse or cow and Scandinavian ar
chaeologists claim an antiquity of 1G00
years for these The wearer of these
rude skates obtained speed not by a
stroke of the foot but by pushing him
self along with a piked staff Skates
made entirely of wood were next intro
duced These were followed by wood
en ones shod with flat strips of iron
Then were gradually developed bladed
skates and finally experts evolved the
Fen type Norwegian racer and figure
skates of the present day London

The
Food Value
of a Soda Cracker
You have heard that some foods furnish fat
other foods make muscle and still others are
tissue building and heat forming
You know that most foods have one or more
of these elements but do you know that no
food contains them all in such properly balanced
proportions as a good soda cracker
The United States Government report shows
that soda crackers contain less water are richer
in the muscle and fat elements and have a much
higher per cent of the tissue building and heat
forming properties than any article of food made
from flour
That is why U need a Biscuit should
form an important part of every meal They
represent the superlative of the soda cracker all
their goodness and nourishment being brought
from the oven to you in a package that is proof
against air moisture and dust the price being
too small to mention
