LIBEL ON ANIMAL RACE
Little Girls' Answer Was Decidedly
i a Reflection on the Class of
Ruminates ,
John Lover , the animal export
hnd nntiiro writer of the Philadel
phia /MO , was talking the olhor day
hhout n wolf.
"Yes , " SU | > (1 Mr. Lover , "HIO ! ate
her last litter of cubs. She hns enl-
cn , in fact , her last six litters. Yet
she is n gentle and allVotionnto wolf.
Strange that she should ho so un-
niolherly. "
Ho paused and smiled. "Shu
reminds mo of a remark I overheard
the other day , " the famous keeper
resinned. "A school teacher came
here with a class of little girls , and
every now and then ho would stop
and fire off at the youngsters a few
questions nature questions , you
know.
"In the lion IIOUPO ho said :
" 'Who can tell mo what a ru-
niinnting nninml is ? '
" 'I know , sir , ' said a little girl.
'She is one that chews her cubs. ' "
ENGLISH CATHEDRALS.
The gift of 4:80,000 : by n lady ,
Mrs. Hawkins , for the completion of
the western towers of Trnro cathe
dral is a reminder that this is the
only established church cathedral of
any importance which has been built
since HI. Paul's was completed by
Sir Christopher \Vren. All the great
cathedrals and nblieys in England
were erected by Catholics and were
bunded over by net of parliament
in the reign of Henry VIII. to the
proteslnnis when the Catholic
church was disestablished and ( he
Protestant religion created by law.
It does not sny much for ( he fer
vency of the Protestant religion that
although the population of England
and Wales , since the time of Henry
VIII. 1ms sprung up from about
1,000,000 to ; ii,000,000 ( the Prot
estant church hns been nimble to add
any notable minsters to equal those
built by the Catholics. Reynold's
Newspaper.
WATCH FOR THE BLIND.
On the face of one of the latest
watches designed for the use of
blind people the hours arc indicated
l > 3r movable buttons in relief on the
dial. The .strong pointer shows the
minutes. The blind person passes
his finger over the dial ; the button
indicating the hour he finds to be
depressed , while the position of ( he
hand gives the minutes. The but
tons are held by n circular plate be
neath the dial , which has at one
point on its circumference 11 notch
into which the buttons drop , one
after the other , as the pinto re
volves with the movement of the
works. This plate serves instead
of the ordinary hour band of a
watch.
EARLY LEAD PENCILS.
The first pencils used for drawing
purposes in Knropc were n queer
composition of tin nnd lend. All
the great nrtists of that period made
illustrious by Michael Angelo were
devoted to these "stiles , " ns they
were termed , nnd pome of the most
fniuous paintings preserved in our
museums of today were originally
blocked out nnd drawn in with these
pewter pencils. They seemed ( o
serve their purpose admirably , and
it was not until many years later ,
riMitnries renlly , that the perfect
drawing pencil wns invented. The
pewter ones were not called lend
pencils , however.but "niolybdoids. "
THE GREAT WORLD FUTURE.
It grows clearer every day that
enst nnd west are never to fuse ; that
the far oust is not to become Occi-
dentalized ; that Japan or China , or
Jnpnn nnd China together , will
sooner or Inter mnke the China seas
no place for ( be colonizing or pioneering
neering European. There will be
great powers there as well ns in
Europe nnd America. It is our in
terest to keep n watchful eye on this
transformation , and , forgetting old
theories and prejudices , to shape
our policy to meet n now nnd unex
ampled situation. London Specta
tor.
THE DAUGHTER BALKED.
"I thought , " snid old Groucherly ,
"that I could save money by refus
ing to give my consent to my daugh
ter's marriage with young Huggins ,
but it's no go. "
"What's the trouble ? " queried the
friend of the family.
"She declines to elope , " explained
the old man , with a large , open
f'iced sigh.

Cognomens Bestowed by Friend
or Foe.
Washington was nicknamed the
father of his country , Aincricus Fa-
bins , the Cineinnntus of the west ,
atlas of America , lovely Uoorguius
( a sarcastic nickname applied by
the English soldiery ) , ( lower of the
forest , deliverer of America , step
father of his country ( applied by
bitter opponents during his presi
dency ) , and savior of his country ;
Adams wns named colossus of in

tieello and long Tom ; Madison ,

WHY BACHELORS ARE BORES.
Somebody bus started ( be idea
( bat bachelors sink down into a dull
monotonous condition of boredom
for themselves , and ( hey are apt
to bore others from ( be sheer dreari
ness of ( heir lives. Married men are
snid ( o be much more cheerful ,
light hearted nnd amusing tbnn the
bachelor Iribe in general. A single
mail bus so much more lime on his
hands than the benedict that be is
apt It ) mope nnd regard himself a
innrlyr. At the same time one must
confess that some married men be
come fearful old fogies. And ( here
is not much to choose between an old
fogy nnd a dull bore.
AVOID DAY DREAMING.
There is no girl so prosaic that
she does not indulge in an occasion
al day drenin. Some girls waste far
too much time in rose-colored clouds
of imagination. Day dreams arc all
well enough in their wny ; they lift
us out of the common place , but to
dwell continually in their rosy mists
is bad for us. This is a practical
world , nnd if we wnnt to succeed
we must keep ourx eyes open nnd
mnke the best of mich opportunities
us come our way.
AMERICAN WOMEN IN EUROPE.
The American woman , who is n
very practical person , is blind to
Hie virtues of a thin woolen clolh
for a traveling dress , nnd pins her
faith instead to tnfl'etns. A short
.skirt and a bolero or n ninch-tnckcd
blouse-bodice ( which she calls "n
waist" ) of olive given , navy or cigar
brown taffetas , is almost a uniform
with our American visitors on globe
trotting intent.
SO SAFE.
"My ideal of n happy life , " mur
mured the czar , wearily , as the dis
covery of three now conspiracies was
reported ( o him , "is on ( be lines of
nil American musical comedy. "
"Why PO , sire ? " asked ( he aston
ished prime minister.
"Hecnuse in ( hat ( bore is never
the suspicion of a plot , " replied the
antncrnt , enviously.

In the face of this there were

Miialics nn cxnct science.
TEMPTATION.
"You should' not give way when
tempted , young man , " said the rich
man.
' Why , wore you ever tempted to
live anything nwny ? " nsked the
young man.
AT FIRST HAND.
"Do you believe that nn ocean
crip is conducive to health ? "
"Well , those who take it generally
