And when woman detective catches her victim she is invariably more pitiless than becomes 8 detective must necessarily re- linquish all feminine individuality, as the experience she must unavoidably undergo in such capacities gives her 8 coarseness of manner not calculated to inspire respect, such as modest lady is wont to receive.

Twenty years ago round, plump figure was almost the exception. Now the exception seems to be the other way. The increasing avoirdupols of the nation is too conspicuous to be ignored.

 The wardens of the Manitoba peniten- tiary, Stony Mountain, near Winnipeg, has 8 fine herd of hybrid cattle, crossed between the male buffalo and the domestic COW. They are very tame, taking no more notice of human beings than ordinary cat tie do. They are very hardy, and seem -eminently adapted to ranging our plains. They readily mate, and nature seems to provide their offspring with a constitution adapted to all climatic ex- tremes of the northwest. They are not housed during the winter, ind their food under the snow, and thrive where other cattle would starve. The beef is excellent, and yarn has been spun from their hair.

There was once young man on the Brooklyn police force, by pressure of cir cumstanccs, who had taste for painting. How he got on the police force don't know. The police force is very exclusive.
