Visited an eating house in Ber-
lin which for primitiveness is rather
ahead of anything else I have seen in
the world. The dining table con
sisted of a log in which eighteen
cavities appeared at regular inter
walls. Each cavity was about the
size Of a large soup bowl, and fastened
near every one was a big iron spoon
attached to the log by an iron
chain. The method of dining was
neither complicated nor prolonged.

Limits in Stature.

Ancient writer's have mentioned
giants exceeding ten and even twelve
feet in height, but these accounts
have doubtless been exaggerated,
and tits amatter Of question whether
any Of these individuals have ex-
ceeded in stature the giant Winckel-
meier Of the present time, and who
is eight and One-half feet high.
DWarls Of sixteen and even twelve
inches are among the records OF hui
man existence, but these diminutive
creatures were either immature or Ill

yet perfectly developed dwarf was the

nine inches height, who died in 1927.

Remembered in a Dream,

Hartford Times.
A prominent business man in Wat
erbury was, until recently, in the hab-
it Of giving large sums of money,
which had been taken in after bank
ing hours, into the hands of his wife
for safekeeping. On the 8th of June
he handed her 81, 900 in bills, and
at the same time remarked that he
would deposit the money in the bank
in the morning.
After breakfast the bills were called
for, but the woman had forgotten
where they were secreted. A general
search was instituted. Bureau drawers
were upset, cupbOards and closets
ransacked, even carpets taken up;
but still the missing money cOuIdnOt
be found. The rate husband stOrmed
and swOre by note, but the result re-
manned the same.
1t was finally believed that the
money had been stolen. The house
was again put In order, but the wife
received no more deposits for safe
keeping. Sunday night she had a
vivid dream, IN which was revealed
the moneys hiding place. Hastily
arising from her couch she lifted the

Cost of Getting the News.
From the Boston Herald

From the Boston Herald
Eugene NJ Camp, who has collected
the statistics on this point says,
through the American, that the en-
tire cost of all the news in the papers
in this country is $50, 655,OOO per
year. This is curiOusIy divided. The
special bureaus, which are principally
located in New York, with the right
to look over the proofs every night
of some of the morning jourals, cost
$345,O0O. Thisis dividedup among
100 OF the leading provincial papers.
The business of the Associated Press
now amounts to 81 100000 yearly,
and that of the United States fOots
up to S45O,OOO. These two sums,
with the special outlay for telegraph
tolls outside of the organizations,
place the total to all the papers OF
81, 100000 for this department. In
addition to this there are to be reck-
Oned the special services of profess
siOnal correspondents in adjacent
towns and important centers, whose
salaries aggregate 81 100000 be
sides. This makes the total cost of
all the service about 50, $4,000 per
annum. In the larger cities of the IN
ion it costs all the way from $500 to
81, 200 a week for the working up of
local districts Mr. Camp reckons
this yearlyexpense at about SIS $780,
600. This is a correct analysis of
the expense in collecting news and
the proportion in which one branch
of the service is related to the other.
there are three lines on which this
work rOceeds-the gathering Ofnews
by the local reporter, the news of the
telegraph and the special correspond
ent. Each method is closely related
to the other. The statement shows
that there has been a great develop
ment of journalism in the matter of
news. Every effort is made to get
the news and one combination only
paves the way for another in order
to keep the lead in this department.
of a newspaper. The greater the
combination the greater the result,
and the paper that has the news is
the one that the public is most will
ing to pay for.

Mr.. A. L. Smaller, proprietor Of the

A Snider and q Frog.

A gentleman tells the Necklenburg
Wa,) Democrat that, in company
with another, he was walking along
the banks Of a stream when their at
tentiOn was drawn to a noise near
them in the water. Tt was ascer-
tanned that the noise was caused by
q fight between a monster spider and
q frog. Whenever the Two came to-
gether the spider would seize the frog
with his poisonous fangs; the frog
would then by q supreme effort shake
Ofhis enemy and hop away to d pecu-
liar looking plant which grew near,
and after biting of a portion Of the
leaves and eating them would return
to the combat with renewed energy.
The two gentlemen watched the In
teresdng combat for q long time,
when one Of them concluded that he
would keep the frog away from the
plant, which it seemed to be using as
an anddOte for the poison Of the spi-
der. So when the frog as usual
started for the plant after being bit
ten ne kept him away; thepOOr fellow
made frantic efforts to get at it, but
was prevented, and in a few minutes
the poison OF the spider, not being
cOunteracted, took effect and the
frog expired Immediately.
