A Great Traffic in Fowls.

the pot, ii not every Sunday. anyway or
Christmas Day. In the two days befor,
Christmas 1000 turkeys and 1900 capon;
were passed through the barriers OF tho
octroi OF the town. Formerly this sup
ply came from Ianguedoc and iascony
but of late years it has been furnished
almost exclusively by Italy, The fowl
arrive in railway vans of the ordinary
size, but specially constructed for this
traffic. The sides are of lattice-work,
and internally the van is divided into
nine tiers or shelves. On each tier there
arc twelve cages, and each cage is calcu.
lated to contain thirty birds.
In this way the prodigious number o.
3,240 fowls is conveyed in q single
wagon. The cages are provided with
tins for water ON one side and for corn
on the other, and there is door in each
which any fowl that is injured
or sickly can be at once removed. The
birds arc said not to suffer at all or to
deterioratc on their journey, though they
como from Milan or even from Venice,
and in many cases arc sent through
direct as far as tho Spanish frontier

Regulating the Degree of Fatness.

Much fat is not the sign of health, bui
of tissue degeneracy. Big, portly men,
of two hundred and odd pounds of bone
and tissue arc not men for endurance OIL
for thorough work. Tho ancient
Spartans understood this thing. They
paid as much attention TO the rearing OF
men as our best stock-breeders of to-day
pay to the rearing of fine horses. They
took charge of the firmness and loose
ness of mems flesh, and regulated the
degree of fairness to which it was lawful
in free state, for any citizen to extend
his body. Those who dared to grow too
fat or too soft for military campaigning
in the service of Sparta wero soundly
whipped, and If they would not, of their
own accord, reduced their flesh, they
wero taken in hand by trainers, who,
with spur and lash, and corresponding
diet, soon brought them to the required
standard. chronological Journal.

Gates Of Happiness.

All men and women should rejoice to
remain part child all through life, how
ever long its course may run. The games,
the dance, the anecdote, the assembly of
friends, the feast, are as much part of
humanity as its natural power to laugh
or to perceive the points of7wft. Amuse
ment is one of the forms of human hap
piness. The happiness, like old Thebes,
has a hundred gates for its coming and
going the gate Of tears, for man weeps
when he is happy, amid music or in re-
visiting his mothers home; the gate Of
pensiveness. for be is happy when he
reads "Gray's Elegy," or walks in the
rustling autumn leaves; the gate Of ad
miration for man is happy amid the
beauty Of nature and Of art; the gate of
friendship, when heart finds It's compan-
ion heart; the gate of hope, for man Is
happy when the coming days are pictured
with these angel figures Of expectation.
Of these hundred gates of happiness,
amusement makes one-planned by the
Builder Of human life. 1t must open be

An Antisentic Climate.

One of the most curious results of my
observations is that the climate of Dana
raland possesses what we might call an
antiseptic character for several months
of every year The quality is an attend
ant of the long annual drought. Every
living thing suffers during that period
from the excessive heat, and much com
fort is impossible, even In the shade,
while, in places exposed to the warm
winds the thermometer has risen to 129
degrees; and the sand, unmoistened for
six months, becomes so hot that | have
seen eggs hardened in it. This arid heat
is opposed to the propagation of ferment,
for it dries up everything that is exposed
to the wind before it has time to sour.
No manifestations of tuberculosis are
known. Wounds of every kind heal re-
markably quickly and well, without
enough suppuration taking place to make
the bandages stick. The manner IN
which large. neglected wounds heal of
themselves would form an interesting
study for professional surgeon. | OBJ

A Dangerous Practical Joke.

Recently some manufacturer has
adopted a method of loading" cigars OF
a certain brand with chemical cartridge
which takes fire soon after the weed Is
lighted There is no sudden explosion
which skaters the wrapper and sends
fragments of burning tobacco in all di-
rcctions, but fromsthe end of the cigar
stream of fire shoots out to a distance of
about three feet in direct line. 1t makes
a man look for a few seconds as if he
were gas tank and held a piece of
broken gas pipe in his mouth The man
is in no danger so long as he keeps still
and lets the cigar sputter away. To hold
the weed firmly in the teeth at such
moment is a better test of a mans nerve
than to hang on to the end of a burning
Roman candle. The chief danger to be
feared is that some man may drop cigar
and start contlagration if he attempts
to smoke indoors.
In one department of the city govern
mcnt the clerks have found much amuse-
mcnt lately in dealing out cigars of the
new brand and waiting for the displays of
pyrotechnics. They suddenly abandoned
that form of diversion a few days ago,
on account Of an unexpected accident.
One of the clerks had presented cigar
to an official, but it had been consigned
to the officials pocket until a more con
vcnicnt time for smoking. That time
came when the official got on
the front platform of street
car and borrowed a Eight" from
. "A stout German. The heads were close
together. and the official was sucking the
fire from the end of the Germans half
burned weed, when there was a tiZz like
that which attends the flight of a rocket.
A stream of fire played directly into
the Germans face, scorching his cheek
and obliterating one large, red side
whisker in an instant. The German
Jumped off the car with howl of
anguish. He was followed by the as
tonished official, who began to make an
apology.
''You make one pig joke" screamed
the German, "but haf you arrested"
The official was obliged to show his
shield and give the name of the clerk
who had furnished the obnoxious cigar
before the German would believe his ex-
planation A day or two later the clerk
received letter from the Germans law
yer stating that suit for damages had
been authorized Fearing that his posi-
ton in the department would be forfeited
