The Old Custom OF kound-Plowing-"
The village of Minussinsk, in Russia,
has been troubled by the pest among its
cows. and the conscript fathers of the
community held a meeting to decide
upon the best means Of putting a stop to
the calamity. 1t wa agreed that re-
sort should be had to the old Slavonic
custom of round blowing. A Russian
paper gives an account Of the process.
Seven virgins, two old women, and a
young bachelor Of good character are
elected. Atmidnight a procession of the
peasants is formed, led by the two old
women carrying pictures Of saints. In
the rear of the procession the seven
maidans are hamessed TO a plow. which
is guided by the young man. A light
furrow is plo%wedaround the village; and
thereby. according to the belief Of the
local agriculturist, a barrier is provided
against the evil spirit. lie has no power
to pass over the mystical furrow.-Chi-
raqo Tribune.

The Russian emperor ordered some time
ago a pair OF new parade p%antaloons OF his
tailor, an Italian living In the great Mass
koi, and who carries en- the largest bust
ness in st. Petersburg. The car is very
economical, and carefully examines his
own expenditures. Accordingly he asked
fur the bill for HIS unmentionahles, and
found that the price was exorbitant. I'm
mcdiutely the car sent for his adjutant
and asked him what price he had been nc.
customed to pay for the same garments.
The price was considerably lower. The
emperor few into a passion, and sent the
adjutant to the tailor with 5he order C
Immediately take down from his shop the
imperial eagle. The Italian handed in G
complaint to the ministry OF the court,
trying Ia dispute the right Of the car Of
taking down the eagle, having not re.
ceived it from the present but the former
emperor. The consequence was an i'm
perial ukase ordering the tailor to quit
the Russian territory. The order will be
executed as soon as the Italian, who in
the meanwhile has fallen III, shall re

developed at the expense of the Jaw,
which becomes shorter. This collection
gives merely an outline. There are
many intermediate steps. Dogs are clas-
sified into mastifs, hounds, spaniels and
wolf dogs. The wolf dogs. such as
these continued Mr.. Lucas, pointing
to the Indian dogs and the Egyptian
dogs, ''are nearest the original stock.
In fact, it is very difficult sometimes to
distinguish the skull of a wolf from that
of an Indian dog. Yes, the teeth are
the same, and you will notice all along
the line there is similarity in the
teeth. When you reach the pug at the
end, the teeth are crowded and the in
cisors lap over. Then the teeth of the
pug are not SO large or strong. 1t has
been raised ON soft food, and has not
had to rend or tear its prey. As you
60 up the scale the intelligence of the
dog increases, and as you go down, to-
ward the wolf, the animals increase in
brute ferocity. Yes. the bulldog has
high forehead" observed Mr.. Lucas,
in reply to reporter, expressing sur
prise that an animal that served in lit
erature as a type of brute ferocity
should stand so well in the score OF
cranial development sit has high
forehead, and will become very much
attached to its master. 1t is renowned
for its courage, and will fly at the head
and hang on. Any dog may be taught
to attack a man. y Washington Star

A Difficult Language.

A Boston man, who has spent about
fourteen years on the east and west
coasts of Africa, says that the language
of the natives of the Congo country is
difficult to acquire, and that he knows
of only one European who has mas.
tered it sufficiently to understand 1t,
though he can speak very little. 1t sp.
pears to be composed of short words,
which, in the rapid manner of speaking,
seem to be run together, and each sen;
tence to consist Of a longer or shorter
composed word. 1t is capable of strong
emphasis, and is quite expressive, but
the natives are not given to gestichla-
ton even when talking excitedly, ex-
cepting always the feticharo or fetch
man when dealing out damnation to
transgressors. The trouble in acquir.
ing the language seems to be the gen.
eral unwil1ingness Of the natives to
teach it to white men. It is said, how
ever, that some of the Portuguese who
are bofn and raised there have ac.
quired the language, and speak it az
duently as natives.-N. z. Sun.

Burdette's Fatherly Advice.

Yes, my son. the lamb gambols on
the green, | know, and so you weakly
justify yourself when you gamble on
the red. But observe, my son, the
lamb gambols only when it is very
young; when it is an awkward, long
legged, idiotic-looking eternally bla-a-
ting lamb. When it has more sense it
ceases to gambol. And take its whole
life, if it is not butchered to make it
boarder's holiday in the midst of its
gambols it is shorn about as often as
gambols. That's you, my boy. Get
through with it before it gets through
with you. Ah me, every time look at
the lamb am maddened by the thought
that he will never be safe until he is too
tough for chops, and wears his horns
in a spiral bang that makes him too
callous to be fit playmate for the chill
dren and too unsympathetic to be en-
joyed of the dogs. Oh. that's why
you're living so fast, Ell? Because you
want to be old? Well, yes; only you
don't want to do all your living with
your mouth and stomach. Give your

SKULLS OF DOGS,
Collection in the National Museum
and Learned Lecture Thereon.

A Collection in the National Museum
and a Learned Lecture Thereon.
A bleached and CHASTITY object was
being handled recently by Mr.. Fred
erick A. Lucas, the osteologist at the
National Museum here He had taken
it from eofiin-like box, and explained
to two or three persons that it was the
skull of an Esquimaux sledge dog.
''This skull" said Mr.. Lucas, "bears
out the stories of the rough treatment
which these dogs receive. See there
pointing to spot over the eye where
a portion of the bone had been broken
off, sit took q heavy blow to do that;
and look at this leg," continued the
bone man, taking several long bones
from the box and deftly putting them
together. "You see that leg was
broken and was never allowed to heal
perfectly. That dog had to limp along
very painfully after he was injured. See
how this joint was deformed and how
it must have creaked," he continued,
working one of the bones against the
other like pump-handle, to show the
defect in the joint.
Mr.. Lucas stopped in front of case
wherein were displayed series of
skulls arranged in row for compare
son. The labels showed that two
skulls in the upper row beginning on
the right were those of Indian dogs;
next to them was that of an Egyptian
mummified dog, and then in order the
skulls of Newfoundland, of COM
mon dog, hairless Chinese dog, a
Laverock setter, Saint Bernard, a
bulldog and an English pug. In an
other row below was series of skulls
of wild dogs-wolves, coyotes and
foxes.
''This series will show" said Mr..
Lucas, 1.-THE effect of domestication, the
development of the Uranium under
domestication. The skull of the Indian
dog there, you see, differs very little
from that. of the wolf below it. You
see it has very little forehead and a
very large jaw. As you go along
now." he continued, '.you find the
facial angle increases, the forehead ID
