A doctor received a hamper and a note from his elderly aunt, who was passionately devoted to cats, This was the note: “Dear Richard: I am sending you by special messenger a hamper con- taining Tiggles. The realization has been forced upon me that he has be- come extremely old and Infirm and the painful necessity arises for me, as his devoted mistress, to arrange for hig speedy and merciful demise. It would be too heartless, I think, to con- sult a veterinary surgeon. Therefore, dear Richard, I beg of you to treat him with the same care that you ex- | pend upon your own patients and kill him with chi ‘” 1450.

A holiday on Robinson Crusoe’s ts land will be possible in the near fu- ture. The charming little island of Juan “Fernandez, where Alexander Selkirk spent four years of his life, and whose story led Defoe to write his famous masterpiece, is to be transformed into a holiday resort. It belongs to the Chillan government and can be reached by steamer from Valparaiso. .The island is thirty-six syuare miles in extent, and is heavily wooded with splendid tree ferns, orange trees, myrtles, and sandal wood. It is mountainous, and full of ravines and torrents, Orowds of wild goats roam through the underwood, and myriads of humming birds chat among the ferns. The climate is sald to be ideal. < At Cumberland bay, where Selkirk landed, is the island's. only hamlet, San Juan Baptista. A modern hotel is to be erected here, and a bi-weekly. steamboat service is to be run, Naturally, the great curiosities of the island are the places where Robin- son Crusoe, according to the story, passed the best part of his life. First, there is the grotto where he made his dwelling; it is carpeted with ferns and climbing plants, All around it grows the pologony, a curious plant, from whose gigantic leaves he made his crockery—plates, dishes, soup tureens, and even washing basins and tanks, There is the little bay in which he used to moor his boat, and the plateau on which he built his cabin. ALLIGATOR A GOOD MOTHER Takes Care of Young in Much the Same Manner as Does the Hen of the Barnyard. The female alligator lays a great number of eggs with hard shelis, which in size and general appearance resemble hens’ eggs. And she lays them in a nest built in a curious min- ner. Along the bank of a stream Is spread a layer of mud and grass, or leaves, and on this is placed a layer of eggs, then another layer of mud and grass about seven or eight inches in thick- ness, then another layer of eggs care- fully covered, and so on, until often thirty or more eggs are deposited. Although the eggs are hatched by the heat of the sun, and the decaying vegetable matter, the mother alligator watches the nest carefully. As soon as the young, which are helpless little creatures about eight Inches long, are hatched, she leads them to the water and takes care of them as a hen does her brood of chickens, until they are strong enough to defend themselves, Antelope. to. Be. Cared For. The antelope, noted for its color- ing, delicate proportions and zephyr- like movements, jig threatened with extinction unless some measures are taken at once to give it some protec- tion. There are said to be 8,000 in the United States, and 850 of these are in the Yellowstone park. In 1908 there were 2,000 in the park alone. Agitation on behalf of the antelope has been started by the members of the American Bison society, which has done so much for the buffalo ‘The winter range in the Yellowstone park is not nearly adequate for the antedope alone and It is necessary to share it with other animals. It 1s proposed to enlarge this winter range and also to provide similar ranges in California, Oregon, Utah, Nevada, Wyoming and Idaho, and also to with- draw from public use certain parts of the Yellowstone where the animals congregate. The antelope herd in this country suffered last year from exposure and from the depredations of predatory aninials. And He Didn't Mean That, Exactly. It was a concert in connection with the Sunday ‘school anniversary, and when Freddy was called upon to give his recitation his nerve failed com- pletely. Standing trembling before the sympathetic audience, he seemed as if he could not make a start. Persuasion was tried, but in vain. He broke into sobs and finally was sent back to his seat. The officiating minister seized the opportunity to pour out consolation and also give encouragement for the good of the boy. “Well, friends,” he remarked, “it 1s not a very nice thing to stand here and look at all your faces.” Then he wondered why ence smiled, the audi- Could Not Find “Mary.” A Sunday evening recently, shortly after 8 o’clock, a young man stopped at a home in West Forty-second street, and asked whether any one could tell him where “Mary” lived. He said he did not know her name, but that his sister had introduced him to Mary, and he had taken her home in West Forty-second street. He was told that no “Mary” lived in the blocks bounded by Conser avenue and the Northwest- ern bridge. He walked away toward the east with a box of candy under his arm.—Indianapolis News. Woman Preacher in English Town. The little English town of Sunning- dale is thoroughly up to date, for it now has a woman as sole minister of its Congregational church. She is Miss Norah Thompson, who has made a name for herself as an excellent preacher. She has officiated at mar- riages, baptisms and funerals, and is fully qualified for every duty. badd sins, = e THRILLED BY RACING TRAINS Lying in Berth, Traveler Enjoyed Sight of Locomotives in Keen Contest. A looker-in at the window confesses to a guilty admiration for a train race. He snys that in his travels by night lve has a habit of looking out of the window, Sometimes he enjoys views of the starlit heavens which he does not obtain in any other way, Once he was astonished by the sight of a bril- liant constellation which he had never observed before. He drew a diagram of it and was told that he had dis- covered Orion, Early one morning on the Grand Trunk he observed a Cana- dan Pacific train gaining on his own, with the fireman shoveling in coal j With unusual energy. Evidently the Grand Trunk engineer and fireman saw it, too, for the speed of his own train perceptibly increased, and eventually the national locomo- tive won out. While the Canadian Pacific train was gaining he regarded the race as a foolish and dangerous performance; but as the contest be- came more even his point of view changed. Jt seemed like a healthy competition, There could be no finer race to watch—it beat horse racing and yacht racing all hollow, He could see all the time which was gaining. Then to le In bed and witness such a contest suggested that combination of luxury and excitement which was one of the marks of the decadence of Rome, That comparison sobered him again— he did not like to contemplate the de cline and fall of our civilization through tiils kind of indulgence. He admits that it is dangerous, but he would like to see another race, CAN OUTFLY ANY AIRPLANE Bluewing Teal Duck Has Been Known to Travel at Rate of 300 Miles an Hour, It is a mistake to suppose that an alrplane going “at the rate of 248.5 miles per hour could overtake the fast- est bird. The bluewing teal duel files in excess of that speed, and has been known to go as fast as 800 miles per hour with an inconsiderable wind in its favor. The hawks are perhaps even faster, though capable of only short bursts of speed. Duck hawks have been known to overtake and cateh greeuwing tea! in the air, and possibly they also catch an occasional bluewing. The rush of the duck hawk, If the ob- server is fortunate enough to see it close up, as concealed duck hunters sometimes are, is perhaps as incredible a phenomenon as there {s in nature. It was with hawks that falconry was de- veloped, and it ts likely that all birds of prey are capable of high speed. Whether there is any winged cren- ture as fast as the bluewing teal ts something bird observers would lke to know, The bluewing, long of wing and slender of body, a veritable grey- | hound of the skies, is built for speed. It no doubt can fly at top speed for hours at a time, and It Is probable that many bluewing pass in a single day or night from the breeding grounds of the North to those of southern waters on which to winter,—St. Louis Post-Dis- patch, Words With Many Meanings. In some languages the same sound is used for ever so many different things. ‘Even in English there are words and sounds with more than one meaning. The word “box,” for Instance, has at least six meanings. “Glass” does duty not only for a very ' useful vitreous substance, but also, for a mirror, a drinking vessel, a ba- rometer, a telescope, and several other things. Or think of the various senses in which the word “case” is used, You can easily recall many English words which have a double or a triple mean- ing—to say nothing of words which are spelled differently and mean quite different thimgs, yet have the same sound, In Japanese, such pitfalls for for- elgners are far more numerous and be- wildering. The sound ki, for exam- ple, has no less than 72 different meanings! In writing, each of these 72 words has a distinct Japanese char- acter all to itself, yet all are pro- nounced ki. Lace Announces Visit of Stork. So fond are Hollanders of their chil- dren that when a new baby arrives the parents want to tell the whole world about It. So they hang out a dainty bit of lace on the front door, so neigh- bors and friends may know the good news. If the baby ts a girl, the lace has a background of bright tinsel, If it is a boy, a pink background is used with the lace. The Ince is not only an announce- ment. It is also an invitation for the neighbors to call. All bring presents. These visits continue for several days after the baby Is born. Father treats the “boys” of the crowd to beer in large steins, while the women drink coffee {n honor of the new heir. Predatory Wasp. A convict, who wanted more than the , regular prison fare, once made a com- plaint in rather ingenious terms. An inspector entered this man’s cell and found it very hot and stuffy. “Why have you your ventilator closed?” he asked, The prisoner answered plalntively: “Well, inspector, the last time I had the ventilator open a wasp flew in, you tropics. WHEN THE WORLD WAS YOUNG | Remarkable Animals Roamed Plains of What Is Now the Dominion - of Canada. The high-browed paleontologists have been rigging up the skeletons of a mess of duck-billed dinosaurs In the Calgary region in British Columbia. The animals were planted before the Rockies had even begun to sprout, The country was a lushy plain, with the animals and balmy climate of the It was not until the Rockies had grown into geod-sized hills that the country became known for its bUzzards. In the good old days the duck-billed dinosaur was a hippo- potumus with the head of-a pelican and the hind legs of an ostrich. If he didn’t look so much Uke a crocodile he might have been mistaken for an elephant. He had three toes, but could swim like a swan. ~A husky dinosaur was likely to be some 30 or 40 feet over all and would tilt the scales for 8,000 to 10,000 pounds. He might use a Kodiak bear for a play- thing. In those days the fight fans would have loved to see a mix-up be- tween a duck-billed dinosaur and one of the saber-toothed tigers from the La Brea pits. That would make bull: fighting seem like a handkerchief filr- tation. We ought to put in a requisl- tion for a goose-faced iguanodon to add to our collection at Exposition park, Maybe we can fix up a trade with the Calgary folk and give them a slightly damaged methatherlum for the venerable bones of a dinosaur.— Los Angeles Times. EARLY DAYS OF RAILROADING Vallandigham Writes of Some of the Primitive Methods of New Means of Transportation, Edward Noble Vallandigham, in his book, “Delaware and the Eastern Shore,” gives an interesting sidelight | on railroading in 1883. In a chapter dealing with transportation between the Delaware river and the Chesa- peake bay, he says, according to the Indianapolis News: “Steamboats soon replaced the safling packets, but It was not until 1883, after years of legisla- tion in both states, that the New Cas- tle & Frenchtown railroad,, traces of which still show in green bits of em- bankment, improved the land route. A | primitive locomotive engine, imported from England, was with difficulty tink- ered into going order to draw tiny coaches on the rails of strap fron, pegged to wooden sleepers, which in turn were pegged to stones set deep in the ground. ‘The speed of ten miles an hour was held to be perilous, Bas kets hoisted on tall poles notified the line ahead that the train was coming; From time to time train hands, detect- ing a rail with end turned up wherea | spike had loosened, got down and se) cured the threatening ‘snake head’ According to the original charter the rate for passengers was 3 cents a mile, a tariff later raised to 10 cents because the cost of building and main- | taining the line had been underestimat- | ed. Each passenger could carry 100 pounds of baggage free of charge.” Scourge Known as “Black Death.”"| The name “Black Death” was given to the epidemic that devastated Asia.) and Europe in the Fourteenth century. | It was so called from the black spots that appeared upon the skin at the, time of death, and was probably a! highly malignant form of typhus fever, | The scourge ravaged China in 1888- | 1847 and carried off 18,000,000 of its, inhabitants, and 24,000,000 in other| parts of Asia. The Black Death first appeared in Europe in 1342, but it was not until | August, 1848, that It reached England. In London 100,000 persons died of It, and in Norwich over 60,000, It Is estl- | mated that the victims of this one) visitation numbered from one-third to | one-half of the entire population of England, which, at that time was about 5,000,000, The Black Death reappeared in Europe in 1360, 1878 and 1382, It ig said to have carried off in all its visitations more than 80,000,000 Hu- ropeans, Till We Meet Again, In her “Glimpses of Authors” Miss Caroline Ticknor of the same Ticknor family that has so long been associat- ed with publishing, tells of many de- lightful passages between authors and the ancient firm of Messrs.

His instruments resemble combs, and are made of human bones of different sizes, The operation takes from two to three months, during which time thea patient remains in some retired place. All this time the relatives of the young person bring mats, money and food, but if the quantity does not suit the tattooer, he “goes on strike,” refiing to proceed until sufficient Mberality 1s displayed.
