High and Lofty Chicken.Sellcrs.

1t is quite an insult to ask a Malay If
he will sell anything. Malays from the
up country used sometimes to find their
way to my door with their hands full of
fowls, which they said they wished to
lay ut my feet. They were the poorest
ryots possible, with nothing on but a
ragged and dirty sarong. yet they were
quite Mortified at my asking if they had
brought their fowls to sell. They care
fully explained that the fowls (perhaps
several dollars WORTHY were a present
to me, but in the same breath they sug-
gested to me that if out of my compass
sion for them l would give them a small
trifie to buy rice it would be very accept
able. 1t seemed to me that the distinc-
ton between selling and this proposed
proceeding was imaginary, so 1 used to
force them in a hard-hearted way TO
mention . price. lgcnerally found that
the more delicacy and refinement of
feeling they had paraded the higher was
the price they wanted and the less the
fowls would bear examination. The
wne appeared to think that the fowls
would taste better on account of having
belonged to q noble race that have never
soiled its 'scutchion by commercial deal

A Battle Between EIks.

Yesterday morning the big elk

cal garden, who has for several days
been paying marked attention to n of
the lady elks. who answers TO the name
of Nellie. discovered that he had a rival

the person of phoenix" who is nearly
as large as Charlie, and has wide
spreading a~ntlcrs. whose points are
sharp rs needles. When Charlie first
became aware of the state of affairs he
discovered Phoenix and Nellie flirting
in Il secluded corner of the pen. The
sight maddened him. and with a hoarse
below of rage he rushed forward with
lowered head To eNtcrminate his rival.
Phoenix must have been expecting some
thing of the sort. for wheeling quick as
lightning he braced himself to receive
the onslaught of his foe. Their heads
came together with Il force that stunned
both. and the rattle of their horns at
tracted the attention of Keeper John
Ford. who was feeding the fallow deer.
He seized a club and ran to separate
the combatants. who We're now fighting
with 4 f~ierceness that meant death for
the weaker.
The ,Sks know Ford's voice and obey
him like children. When he reached
the fence inclosing their pen he shouted
to Phoenix. and the latter was thrown
off his guard. When he threw up his
head and looked toward the keeper,
Charlie. whose eyes were blOodshot,
made a sudden lunge. and catching
Phoenix on his antlers threw him against
the fence which divides their pen from
the Enclosure occupied by the two hump
backed camels with such force rs to
break off several stout palings. Then.
with n cry of triumph. he reireated to
his stable. The keepers temporarily
separated the two Infatuated animals
and placed Phoenix in the camel pen.
He was still warlike. and several
times charged the bactrians. Nellie,
who had witnessed the battle. received
the conqueror with a cooling tleat Of
pleasure. and sported by his side while
he walked proudly around the pen.
The battle created great excitement
among the animals. The lion and

How to BE Photographed.

Very many of the photo operators axe
persons without artistic talent or have
not studied art enough TO know how TO
produce correct photo likenesses, and
that is of the reasons why people
find it so difficult to get good likenesses
Of themselves or friends.
A large share Of the photos made the
last few years in the cities as well as in
the country towns have been poor speci-
mems. showing great want of artistic
skill in the makers.
Portrait artists are frequently asked
where a person should 90 TO get good
photos, and the answer is. they make
good work and poor work in all the
galleries, and it is all chance about get
ting good, unless You can show the ar
tist-operator what kind of n photo you
want.
for a photo to the light $ that one side
of the face would be white and the other
side black or heavily shaded would not
be a good position for 4 good likeness.
Neither would artists of experience seat
YOU so that the light would strike direct
" in front.
But If YOU want the best and most
correct likeness YOU can have You should
sit so that the light would strike You
cornerwise or head turned a little from
the strong side light. and never have
. strong reflector used on the opposite
side of YOU from the window. which
would distort Your features in a photo
SO that Your nearest friend would not
recognize any likeness. Or. il YOU want
a fancy picture and do moi care about
it being = good likeness. YOU can let the
photo artist exercise his own taste.
1t has been the practice 10y very MANY
photo artists to make the negatives so
poor that they required considerable re-
touching to make passable photos from
them.
The best negatives are made so that
little or no re,ouching need be done on
them.
Portrait painters who are asked to
paint mesize portraits from small pho
tos think they have good reasons 10
speak harsh words Of the photo artist
who would allow such badly made pho
tos to pass frum their galleries
Many portraits arr made from poor
photos Of deceased persons The photos

How Dead Horses Were Utilized.

Among other army contractors of high
and low degree ut or about Washington
during the war was one who had pur
chased, as the highest bidder, the dead
horses of the army of the Potomac, for
which he paid Sl.7 each. delivered at
his establishment" They averaged. in
the winter. fifty a day, and were thus
disposed Of: First, the shoes were pulled
OIL, then the hoofs were cut of; then the
names and tails were sheared. The ami
NAL was then skinned. the carcass was
boiled that the tallow might be extract
Ell. the best Of the bones were sold for
knife handles, and the remainder TO be
ground for fertilizers. The total result
was that these different parts of the
dead animal were worth when prepared
for market at least $25 a head. and the
profits Of the contractor were conse-
quently very large-Boston Budget
