Buffalo for the Smithsonian.

The acquisition by the authorities of the
Smithsonian Institution at Washington of
a male and female living buffalo is a sub
ject for congratulation, and Mr.. Backford,
the donor, will receive the thanks of
large number Of people for his wise liber-
ality. If anywhere in the United States
there should be herd OF buffalo it is at
Washington, the scientific center Of the
country. 1t may be hoped that Mr. Black
ford's action will induce some one else to
add buffalo or two to the Smithsonian's
small herd. There must still be number
of single individuals held in u state of do
mesticatiou in the western country which
can do their owners but little good. but
which would be of priceless value if sent to
Washington to be bred there We know
of three considerable punches of domesti-
Gated buffalo in this country. One of these
is said to contain % head, one about 40
and one S4-about $50 in all. If, as we
believe, there are single specimens scat
tered here and there over the West, they
certainly should not be allowed to live
alone, but should be brought together and
utilized as breeders We should be very
glad to learn from any of our readers Of
the whereabouts of any domesticated
buffalo, or of any that are held in captiv-
ity. 1t is about time to take buffalo CEN

Growing Old Gracefully.

If now and then you will go to your
study, your bedroom, your private office.
or even in the crowded thoroughfare alone
and settle back into absolute nuiescence,
let your mind stop, let your muscles relax,
let your nerves have rest, you will find
relief. Unless you have tried it you can
have no idea of the beneficial result GER

who loves to work, who can sleep we'll and
who enjoys being by himself now and
then, and understands how to utilize books,
pictures, flowers, tie open field, the ampli-
tudinous heaven, with all its glittering

gracefully? Why shouldn't, his last days

divinity which shapes our course spread

OvERsHoEs. = An observing English
traveller noticed that the manufacturers Of
the United States exerted their utmost en-
deavor to make the shoddiest article that
could be made, or the most excellent Com
petition worked both ways with them.
The deterioration of overshoes verifes the
truth of the observation. 1t is all but i'm
possible now to get overshoes that are
worth half the money that is paid for
them. They would do almost as much
service if they were made of strong paper.
They are made to crack open, to split
down from the margin of the opening, and
to let in water nearly as soon as they are
put into use. The rubber oyershoe is get
ting to be like the japanese paper napkin
to be used once and thrown away. But
it still costs good price.-Good House

Russia was desirous OF war, but

such case France would have to deal with
England; and, as Italy's ally, nobody
could count on England neutrality. This,
he said, was matter fol serious reflection.

efciary of an annual pass over the
