Animal Intelligence

The author, George J. Romano, Ill. D.,
has prepared d work under this title
which has been admitted to the Tnterna-
tional Scientific Series. A single para
graph is here cited on the emotion phase
Of life in the horse:
Another curious emotional feature in
the horse is liability OF all the other men,
tai faculties in the animal to become
abandoned to that of terror. For think
I am right in saying that the horse is the
only animal which, under the influence
of fear, loses the possession of every
other sense in one mad and mastering
desire to run. With its entire mental
life thus overwhelmed Ivy the food of q
single emotion, the horse, not Only loses
as other animals lose, the presence of
mind or due balance among the dis
tinctively intellectual faculties, but even
tho avenues Of special sense become
stopped, SO that the wholly demented
animal may run headlong. and at terrific
speed, against a stohe wall. have
known hare come to grief in q some
what similar fashion when hotly pur-
sued by dog; this, he viewer,
was clearly owing to the hare looking
behind instead Of before, in a manner
not, under the circumstances unwise; ;
but as l have said, there is no animal
except the horse whose whole psychoi-
ogy is thus liable to be completely dom
mated by a single emotion. AS for its
other emotions, the horse is certainly
an a6ectionate animal, pleased at being
petted, jealous of companions receiving
favor. greatly enjoying play with others

Knew How to Take a Joke.

It rarely pays to get mad at prac-
teal Joke. To be able to take such things
coolly is fine advantage, for it allows
ones wits to work and perhaps turn the
tables on the iokers. 1t is said that DIR.
Nathan Smith, the once famed professor
of surgery in Dartmouth and Yale, did
more than any other man ever did to
extend medical and surgical kno Wedge
in the Northern States" owed his start
in life to his cool tact in making the best
of the situation when he was the victim
of a "put-up job"
It was in Cornish, N. II that Nathan
Smith first chung out his shingle."
While the newly-hedged doctor was pa
tiently waiting for business, a company
of young men concluded to have little
fun at his expense. Their plan of pro-
cedure was suggested by the sight of q
goose with q broken leg Taking the
tayern-keeper> into their confidence,
they caught the ]imping bird, and as
soon as all arrangements were complete,
a messenger was despatched in haste to
tell DR.. Smith that a patient who had I'M
fortunately broken his leg desired
his services at the tavern imlned-
lately.
The doctor was promptly on hand
with the necessary apparatus. AS he
drew near the house. and saw the prep
aration for his reception, his quick mind
ceeded without hesitation to the door,
where, amid the ill-cOncealed tittering
of the crowd, he met the inn-keeper,
who informed him where the patient
was.
Preceded by "mine host" and fol-
lowed by the crowd, all ready to burst
with delight at the anticipated surprise
and chagrin of the doctor, lie entered
the house where, snre enough, lay the
poor goose, extended in all honor upon
bed.
The doctor, without the least hesita-
ton or show of surprise, advanced to
the bed, and having, with scrupulcus
care examined the broken limb, pre-
pared his splints, reduced the fracture,
and bound it up in the most scientific
manner. He then, with extreme CRAWL
ty, directed the ,tavern-keeper to pay
strict attention to the patient, on no &C.
count to suffer him to be moved from the
bed for ut least q week, but to feed him
plentifully with Indian meal and water.
There was not much laughter
when the doctor went away,
though thus far alhad gone well enough:
but the next day the joke really became
quite serious, when a good, round bill
for professional services came to the
landlord which he found himself obliged
to pay. Il j.,
The affair soon got abroad, and the
shrewd and level-headeG yonng doctor
suddenly found himself famous. Peo-
pie said, There's aman who knows how
to take care Of HIMSELF highest
kind Of reputation in a Yankee commu-
nifty and one sure to bring money.
Everybody respected him, and the
foundation of lucrative practice was
laid for the physician. .3s

A Chapter OH House Cleaning.

Much as house cleaning is dreaded, it
is positive relief to have it come and
then have it over. Dast has accumula-
