Unfurl'd her tamliird to the air, .

MONEY IN GOAT RAISING.
An Iadotry in Which There Are No
Unsalable Kemnant.
"Tou can sell every part of a gout
tjut bis scent," said Jobu Collins In the
-course of an Interview recently on tne
eubject of his Arizona gout farm.
"There ore thousands of goats, on the
arm," be said, "but whether there are
,10,000, 20,000 or 30,000 I couldn't tell
you for the life of tne.
' "1 can tell you, however, something
about the way In which our goat In
dustry was started. By the death of
a grand-uncle, my uncle, Harry Mc
Corinlek and I Inherited I he Gricbe St.
A i) n silver mines, which are two days
and a night of steady burro travel
south of Tucson. There was silver In
the mines, but by the time we got It
out and got It to Tin-eon we were pay
lug for It at tilxut the rate of li to 1.
Hut It wasn't a case of free silver, by
any means. It'wn the most expensive
money 1 ever got hold of. Finding the
venture a losing one, we took lessons
from the 'greasers' and bought from
them 1.10 common gouts.
"There Is nothing but sagebrush and
cactus out there for those animals to
feed on, but no man ever saw a dead
goat, unless be had come to some vio
lent end. They live and thrive where
nearly every other living thing starves
to dentil.
"We started out wllh lot) gouts, de
riving our protl in from the sale of the
lildi-s. In IN'.i'J we decided to mix them
-with Angora goats. .After two yenis
the cross disappears and you g-t a per
fect Angora goat. It Is a valuable
thins to have. The long hair Is sold to
the umnufaeiurers of plush for furni
ture, sleeping ears and such things.
The hair next to the skin can be made
tip Into valuable shuwls. The meat of
the kids Is delightful when fresh and
Is sent In Its canned shape to Culm,
the Philippines, other parts of the
United States, to China and to many
other foreign countries as canned
lamb.
Ho'rlen Is goat's milk that one tea
apoonful of it Is equal to three table
spoonfuls of the purest cream, lint
the best part about the milk Is that
It Is a deadly foe to tubercubi, and con
sumptives who drink It are often
;ured of 1 lie disease. We are planning
to condense the niHk and sell It for
medicinal a well as family use. If
there Is any other dumb animal with
more valuable qualities than the goat,
then 1 don't know It.
"No siabbs have to be provld d for
the keeping and six rancher ate -.if
flelejit for herding up those we v.ui.t to
ell.' Once In fl while the greasers and
Indian get nway with n few, but
where you've got some scrappy ranch
era they are Hot likely to repeat the
inrforniniiee often.
"At rule now, we sell the goats on
the hoof," continued Mr. Collins, ac
cording to tne Washington War. "In
order to do so we have to drive them
Into Tucson. - And a tough Job It Is.
Of course, horses are not much good
"tbeti, as It la so hard to get provender
and w titer, but there Is a species of
broncho which the natives call 'loco
poka,' which Is aa hardy as a goat.
The koo poka Is the erssiwrt thing be
tween Arizona and the next hottest
country. As long as the notion doesn't
strike 'em they're all right, but If ever
they make up their minds to stop noth
ing on earth can start 'em. Whenever
one goes, the rqst go. A stampeding
loco poka might go through a town
where a score of his kind are hitched,
and every blessed one of tnem would
break loose In some way and go gal
loping after hlin. They run till they
get good and ready to stop. If you
happen to hang on that long you can
turn your loco poka around and the
rest will follow.
"We use the loco pokas for packing
the kid meat to Tucson and, barring
this one accomplishment, they are all
right"
FLANNEL SHOULD BE WORN.
This Fabric la Modi More Healthful
Than Other Woolen.
In England one sees much of the hy
gienic underwear which Is so strongly
urged for gncrul adoption, but in this
country It Is less common. From a
sanitary point of view, this is a pity,
since physicians regard It as a preven
tive of many forms of disease. It af
fords the body the greatest protection
against cold, hent and dampness with
the least obstruction to the body's ex
halation. These conditions are instinc
tively felt to be better fulfilled by
woolen than by linen or cotton fabrics.
Hence the very general use of flannel
garments by athletes and by members
of cricket, boating and other sporting
clubs, who are called upon to engage
lu vigorous physical exercise likely to
cause profuse perspiration.
As formerly woven, woolen fabrics
were objectionable to many, because
they Irritated the skin and caused dis
comfort by preventing the proper es
cape of Its exudations. Moreover, they
were as a rule so heavy as to be Intol
erable for summer wear. These objec
tionable features have now been re
moved, and to make woolen clothing
truly sanitary and suitable for all sea
sons the usual process of weaving
woolen fabrics has been materially
modified by adopting a method which
produces a much. less closely woven
texture than the ordinary flannel.
The feeling Is Instinctive, too, that
woolen clothing Is "hot" In warm
weather; that If we wear wool In win
ter to keep us warm we must wear
something different In summer to keep
us cool, or be Inconsistent In theory
and practice lint this Is a mistake
It is obvious to nil how a mui-cuii-
ductor of heat a woolen garment, for
instance prevents the escape of the
heat of the laxly to a colder atnios
phere, or the Ingress of heat to the
body from a warmer atmosphere; a
familiar Illustration of which Is found
lu the practice of wrapping ourselves
In blankets to keep us warm and of
wrapping Ice In a blanket to keep It
cpld to keep the heat In In one case,
and not In the other. It may not be
so easy to UliuriSiiiFiu Why We SoOtilu
clothe a warm body In u blanket to
cool It off or keep It cool when the
temperature of the surrounding air Is
In or near equilibrium wiih It.
The explanation lies In the nature
and condition of the body, the woolen
fabric's two-fold property of non-conductivity
to bent and permeability to
moisture and the evaporation of the
moisture at the fabric's outer surface.
This evaporation disperses the heat,
thus lowering the temperature. This is
the reason the soldier keeps bis wool
en-covered canteen wet lu hot weather.
A wet woolen garment disposes of the
surplus beat and leaves the Ixsly cool.

I'lnnting Seeds by Cannon.
Nasniy.th, a landscape painter of re

landscape gardener, and 1n this capa
city helped to compose some of the
finest park and forest scenery. The
estate of the tben duke of Athol was
disligured by an unsightly crag, the
rocks of which were Inaccessible to
climbers, By a happy thought Nasniyth
determined to make a bold bid for
success with a cannon, which was at
hand. By lils advice tin canisters were
prepared, and loaded with tree seeds.
Fired from the cannon's mouth, these
novel shells burst against the face of
the crag, and scattered their fruitful
contents among the rocky crevices.
Nature carried on the work so clever
ly begun, and In the course of years
those barren heights were clothed and
crowned wllh trees of luxuriant
growth. Nasmj-fh's son, James, the

The Get-Rich-Quick Victims.
NO community is immune from the blandishments of
the "get-rlch-quiek" swindlers. All that Is required
to make a victim Is, indeed, a willingness to believe
that men having an unusually good thing are in a
lever to give It away, and a little of the blind boldness
which leads certain people to try such a hazard and see
what comes of it.
The truth cannot be too often stated that when a man
discovers a sure way of getting rich quick, the last thing
lie does with It is to tell strangers about It. He wants all
there is In It for hlmself-and possibly for his close friends,
lie communicates the discovery In a whisper; and never,
never seeks partners In the odd corners of the counlry.
But sometimes people are caught by the plausible though
cheap pretense that he needs money to carry through his
Idea that he has the scheme but has not the money, and
Bo Is seeking the contributions of small capitalists every
where. If he. cannot get capital from
looking for money-making opportunities, It is because they
do not believe there is anything In bis little plan; and they
are men of shrewdness and experience who are infinitely
betler judges of any such plan than
can possibly be. When they shy at
other people to take to cover.
A good rule for the average man Is
up tight when the .insinuating stranger

his money for a little while, he will get
quadrupled. And it is just as good a
tinting stranger approaches one through

The Bacillus of Suicide.
I HE prevalence of suicidal mania
1 accounted for by a hitherto unknown scientist, who
has studied the subject deeply and trailed the microbe
of suicide to -its native lair, in the unseasonable
strawberry. Clifford Howard Is the name of the discoverer
of the bacillus of self-destruction. He is au assistant Sec
retary to the District Commissioners.
Mr. Howard's methods of scientific
less unique than his conclusions, and his process of rea
soning Is admirably simple. Suicides are most frequent
In the spring. Strawberries are out of season In the lati
tude of Washington In early spring. Unseasonable straw
berries are eaten In Washington. Strawberries eaten out
of season Invariably produce mental depression. (Proof
of fact not given.) Mental depression causes suicidal
thoughts. Therefore the bacillus of suicide Is tracked to
his lair In the strawberry.
Most remarkable, however, Is Scientist Clifford How
ard's discovery that the deadly microbe enters or develops
In the strawberry only when the fruit Is transported from
lis proper habitat to a blghor latitude. The April straw
berry is innocuous in Georgia, but may not be eaten In
Parent and Child
Before the Law. J
A very Interesting paper on I lie
above topic was given In a number
of Harper's Bazar, which sets forth
Rome little known points of ftiw, re
lating to the obligations of father and
mother to a child.
The father of an Infant Is bound to
provide him with necessaries. In
cluding food, clothing and medical at
tendance. If he does not provide such
necessaries, n stranger who furnishes
theiii cau hold the father liable. The
obligation on t lie part of the parent
maintain the child continues until
l .if latter Is In a condition to provide
for bis ewn maintenance generally
speaking, as long as he remains a
minor. But by the statute law of the
country this obligation only ends with
dentil In the case of children who are
4d:ud, lame or physically or morally
Incapable of providing their own sup
port. It Is the purpose of the
law not to compel a father to main
tain idle and hizy children In ease
ami Indolence, but to provide the
young and Inexperienced with the nur
ture and sustenance to which they are
properly entitled from those who
brought them Into the world; this to
cout lime until they have gained
strength and ability to care for them
selves. It Is doubtful to what extent a
mother Is bound to support her child.
In general, she would not be hound
to do so during the life of Its father.
Under some staiuies nn adult son Is
compelled to support his mother. A
fat.'ier cannot avoid hr resnms'lblllty

though be may agree wllh the mother
to do so; and lilt hough a wife, by her

Washington on pain of Inevitable mental depression and
probably suicide. When the Washington strawberry ripens,
however, any old strawberry may be eaten by Washing
tonlans with entire safety.
-Scientist Howard's advice to those who would abstain
from suicide is that they refrain from eating strawberries
until the fruit is ripe at home. Wonderful are the discover
ies of the amateur man of science. Philadelphia North

A Self-Made Man.
THEKE are many men who are proud of being self
made men. They carry their heads high and claim
that they have made their own success by their own
unaided efforts. They claim that no one can say that
they were helped with loans of money, or that they were
ever boosted into positions by the strength of others, yet
this is all a mistake. No person ever made a success in
life without being assisted by others. Think of the assist
ance given by the mother when the self-made man was
a helpless babe; think of the helpful advice of the father,
mother, brothers and sisters, when the self-made man
was Immature; think of the Inheritance from father, moth
er, grandfather and ancestors back for a thousand years,
all of whom have bequeathed to this so-called self-made
man peculiarities which have aided him on the road to
success. These ancestors have bequeathed health and vigor
of body, strength of mind, common sense and the Inclina
tion to virtue, but further than this, the self-made man has
been assisted by those who have labored for bim. What
manufacturer, farmer, nurseryman, editor, physician, law-,
yer or minister has not been aided by others almost dally
throughout his life? No, we may do much to improve our
conditions in life, but we are never entirely Independent of
the helpfulness of others. Green's Fruit Grower.
Useless Polar Expeditions.

Sir Clements Markham has already laid clown the

already know all that is to be known about the Arctic re
gions. No one Is more vigorous than Sir Clements in de
nouncing those who question the utility of Polar eiplora-I
tion. Since his voyage half a century ago he has xteadlly;
supported the work and aided it by the soundness of bis
theoretical advice. Now he declares that furthev expedi
tions are useless. Any attempt to reach the pole Is now a
foolhardy enterprise which is the personal affair of thsl
explorer, and no more entitled to our support than the cross
