The logging firm of Walker & Akeley has just completed cutting their timber in the vi- cinity of Farley. The timber was a stand of mixed stuff that it was thought hardly worth while “monkeying’’ with. How- ever, camps were established on the banks of Three Island Lake, and the work of cutting was commenced on a small scale about January 20th. W. P. Hebard, head bookkeep- er for Walker & Akeley, was in the city today, and he states that the work of cutting the timber has been completed. 12,000 poles were secured, as well as about 2,000,000 feet of logs. A Battle of Butterflies. “A battle of butterflies,” said the Japanese viscount firmly. “Impossible!” cried the lady on his right. “Oh,” the viscount insisted, “the thing is authenticated. It happened on Aug. 20, 1889. Tales and poems with- out number have been written on it. On the evening of Aug. 20 two oppos- ing armies of the butterflies fought an aerial battle between Nojima and Ka- vasaki Mura. The fight continued till sunset, when the smaller army turned and retreated, the victors pursuing it till all were lost in the rosy sunset haze. The ground beneath the combat was thickly strewn with wounded and dead warrlors. The battle drew a thou- gand people. It occurred about thirty feet up in the air. The spectators were amazed and horror stricken to see these gentle blue butterflies grappling and struggling furiously and silently in a blue blizzard above their heads.” The Bookplate. An ex libris, or bookplate, is a small plece of paper whereon is printed the owner’s name and pasted on the in- side cover of a book—in other words, it is a printed slip to denote the owner- ship of books. A proper ex libris shoull have, first of all, the name, boldly and plainly printed, and a space left for the number of volumes contained in the library; then, to make it more in- teresting and personal, some decora- tive device of the owner’s peculiar and individual choice as well as some fa- vorite motto, if desired. In Europe those who have the right use family crests or armorial bearings for their ex libris. Every well regulated library should have some mark of ownership, and the ex libris takes the place of the owner's signature. SRR e Moths and Butterflies. Some moths look very much like but- terflies, but there are two ways in which you can always tell the one from the other. Each has little slen- der feelers growing from the head, but the butterfly’s feelers, or antennae, as they are called, have knobs on the ends. The antennae of the moth some- times have tiny feathers on them and sometimes little spires, but thy are never knobbed. Then, too, in alight- ing the butterfly always holds her wings erect, while the moth’s droop For the Future, The secret of happiness is inward. People had good times when there were no friction matches, no brilliantly llluminated streets, no steamboats or railroads, no sewing machines, no postage stamps, no comfortably heated homes, no telegraphs or trolleys. The elements of happiness are not in things, but iu human nature itself. But the fairer conditions, the greater oppor- tunities, which the marvelous modern inventions afford to the masses of our humanity should augment our joy and expand our hopes. The most obvious fact of human history is that of prog- vess. The race is following a flying und a growing ideal. It is Inspired and saved by hope. Lvery helpful inven- | tion, every improvement of sanitary conditions, every new ray of intellec- tual and spiritual illumination, every ! sclentific achievement, every ameliora- ' tion of physical suffering, every new avenue of enjoyment, every victory of righteousness, every faithful deed in lowly and lofty places, increases the splendor and the power of our vision of the future.—Leslie’s Weekly.

The defense of different persons claiming to be the Messiah has cost the Jews a great expense, both in treasure and human life. One of these, Coziba, who lived in the second cen tury of our era, put himself at the long rollers, and men become amphib- | Messiah, and many of that people ad fous. There is no sensation quite com- parable to riding a surf board on a Paclfic roller. It is tobogganing on a moving hillside of water, or, if you are clever enough to stand up on your board, it is taking this hillside on a single big skee. The beach runs far out before it shelves into deep water, and at high tide the breakers begin to mount almost half a mile from the shore line. You go out there with your surf board and wait for the wave. You learn to catch it at the right moment, throw your board inshore and climb upon it just as the crest of the roller mounts and catches you. Then on this crest you sail in toward the shore, to slide down at last when the wave breaks, down the foaming incline into shallow water and churning foam. It is royal sport.—Travel Magazine. Strenuous Chivalry. It is complained that modern condi- tions are killing “the chivalry of the middle ages.” But mediaeval tales and romances show what that chivalry really was. Wife beating was a com- mon Incident on the part of those knights and gentlemen whose gallantry Was a mer convention. The Chevalier de la Tour-Landry in his book of coun- sels to his daughters tells them the story of a woman who used to.contra- dict her husband in public. One day, after expostulating in vain, he knock- | ed her down, then kicked her face and broke her nose. “And so,” comments the good chevalier, “she was disfig- ured for life, and thus, through her ill behavior and bad temper, she had her nose spoiled, which was a great mis- fortune to her.” But not a word is said hered to and defended him. The Ro- mans made war upon Coziba and his made by eminent Jewish authority, they lost somewhere between 500,000 jand G00,000 men in his defense. a German, who first claimed to be of divine origin in the year 1682. When the authorities threatened to punish him as an impostor he fled, and his end is not known. Rapid Growth. The most remarkable instance of rapid growth was recorded by the French academy in 1729. It was a boy six years of age five feet six inches in height. changed; at six his beard had grown and he appeared a man of thirty. He could easily lift to his shoulders and carry bags of grains weighing 200 pounds. His decline was as rapid as his growth. At eight his hair and beard were gray, at ten he tottered in his walk, his teeth fell out and his hands became palsied; at twelve he died with every outward sign of ex- ireme old age. Cheap.

A well known American actor, who s old enough not to consider himself a matinee idol by any means, was somewhat surprised and pleased in a St. Louis hotel a short time ago when * a pretty girl stopped him in the cor- vidor and presented him with a rose, without saying a word.

Paishkioio = o Beats Radium For Cost. If you object to paper money, but wish to carry big values in small com- pass, you might do worse than lay in a stock of best lenses for microscopes. Weight for weight, gold is not nearly so valuable as glass in the form of powerful lenses, and an ordinary purse filled with such lenses might easily represent a fortune. The record in- crease in the value of the manufac- tured article over the raw material is probably made by this variety of glass, which multiplies itself 50,000,000 times. The front lens of a micro objective in- strument costing about £1 weighs no more than about 0017 of a gram; hence the value of such lenses to the weight of about two and a quarter pounds would be about £600,000. The cost of making this weight of glass is 11, pence to 3 pence, and thus when worked up into the shape of a lens the glass has increased in value about 50,- 000000 times.—London Express. styles and bind dred pages. dings of books.
