Some one has made study of the
different pig calls in different sections
of the country, and says that in Penn
sylvania the farmer calls 'Pig-pig, pig,
pig-gie, pig-gie," in North Carolina he
shouts ''Pig-eye, pig-eye," dwelling on
the "eye;" the Hoosier whoops
"Whoo-ee, whoo-ce," and the hogs an
swer gladly; the Buckeye calls 800
500, 500, 500, soo-o;" the Blue Grass
pork raiser shouts ''Poo-hee, poo .hee, J"
and the Dakota man brings his hogs
with a whistle.
Col. Robert G. Ingersoll said to a
visitor in his office the other day: Il
hate work, but | find there is such
close competition in the business of
larceny that good many men are
forced to 60 10 work" At a later
hour the visitor was in the Colonels
house. "What grand house you live
in!' the visitor said. Il WISH" the
Colonel replied, that | lived in the
poorest house in New York" What
do you mean by saying that?" the Wis
itor asked. Il mean that | wish every
man in New York had better house
than | have"

A STORY OF A LADY's RETICULE.-I
have heard on good authority that there
is an interesting relic preserved in Ain.
wick castle to which a romantic legend
attached The treasured relic is 6 lady's
retlcule, such as was commonly carried
seventy yeaas ago-more or less-and
which did the duty Of pocket On the
night preceding the battle OF Waterloo
the Duke of Wellington and his chief OF
ticers attended ball at Brussels, given
By the dutches Of Richmond, and Mai.
Percy, who was present, became deeply
interested in lady whom he met for tie
first time. When "midnight brought
the signal sound of strife" and Mai
Percy and the lady had to part with
mutual regret, he begged Of her some
souvenir Of their happy meeting, and
she resigned to him her reticule. Next
day came the great battle, and Mai.
Percy was selected to convey to Lord
Bathurst the duke's famous dispatch.
with its admirable description of the con
test, dated Waterloo. June 10, 1915.
The precious document was conveyed to
the minister, in the treasured reticule.
The story as told to me ended with the
sad conclusion that the major searched
in vain for the owner of the reticule.
and they never afterward met.-Notes

Fresh Meat 5000 Years Old.

The preservatiye powers of cold on
flesh are strikingiy illustrated by the
discovery, many years ago, of the car
cass of a mammoth, or antediluvian
elephant, in a vast mass of ice. That
it had been imbedded there during an
era of the worlds history long ante
cedent to the records of the human
race was positively proved by its diff
fering in many respects from the
elephants now existing on earth. while
its skeleton was precisely similar to
the fossil specimens which have been
found at various times in many coun-
tries. The ice melting away, exposed
the carcass, the flesh of which was
sweet and fresh, Notwithstanding the
immense period of time which must
have elapsed since the death of the
animal The hungry bears of the dis
trict in which it was found deyoured
the flesh. while quantities of the skin
and hair were distributed to different
museums of the world. = st. Louis

The Modest Texas Editor,

The non-appearance of this paper
since last June is not caused by want
of new ideas or want of time or mon
ey to publish, but simply by a con-
yiction that the writings in the Cos
mos are so far ahead of the times as
to be, as a general thing, incompre-
hensiblc. For this reason we will 90
slowly and let time catch up with US,
even if our paper loses public import
ance and the second rate postal privi-
lege. But in order to do justice to
our six subscribers, and to give
change of mental food to the general
readers of this paper. we concluded
to publish an interesting historical
event, especially so to the persons who
are acquainted with all or some of the

Do They Ever Say Such Things?

This bit of vicious talk was over
heard in dressing-room recently be-
tween two rival Back Bay bellies:
Fred is getting positively spooney, >
one said to the other, '.he called me a
flower just before | came upstairs, >
You had been sitting against the
wall for a long time" was the un-
amiable response, delivered with much
sweetness. '.but it wasn't nice of him
to allude TO it."
This reminds one of an old French
story, only that it is by no means as
good as that venerable retort:
Your husband told me last evening" >
one lady remarked to another, that
my cheeks were like roses.
Yes, retorted the wife, apparently
undisconcerted. '.he said to me after
wards that it was a pity they should be
yellow roses. .n-B0Si0R Letter.

RELICS IN A Swiss MUSEUM
museum in Neuchatel is an unusually
interesting ore, and the traveller does
nor experience that sensation Of weari
ness which is often felt in visits to simi-
lar places. One room is filed with ami
mails, stuffed of course, which are found
N the higher Alps, many of which are
now extinct. Wolves, white and brown
bears, foxes, white hares, chamois stein
books, all are there, most beautifully
stuffed and preserved. | have said that
some of these animals are no longer to
be found in the mountains, but it would
have been more correct to have stated
that they have retreated before the civil
izing hand of man, for it is believed that
bears, aud certainly wolves, are to be
fond on the higher peaks, where no foot
of Alpine climber has penetrated.
In the next room are the models of
the lake houses and the curious relics of
the ages of stone and bronze which have
been found inlbedded in the mud and
slime at the bottom Of the lake. The
date of these remains cannot be deter
mined. Opinions differ, bnt all agree
on one point-that they certainly existed
before the time of Julius Cesar. The
houses were cleverIy built on four iron
rods sunk deeply in the mud at the bot
tom of the lake and supporting kind of
platform, on which the hut rested. and
the inhabitants reached the shore hv
means of canoes made of hailowed trees.
The reason apparently of their choosing
the lake as dwelling place was to pro.
tect themselves from the numbers of
wild and fierce animals with which the
country was infested. Indeed it is
evident that it was then little more than
vast marsh or morass.
In the same room with the models are
some grotesque ornaments worn by the
woman and some equally extraordinary
weapons worn by men. In another
room are the skulls Of some of these an
cient beings. Very flat aud recediug
are they, and the inspection goes far to
strengthen one belief III Darwin's theory
that their possible ancestors may have
been an ape like tribe.
There is no national costume worn by
the Neuchatel peasantry now, but in
many OF the cottages you may see old
pictures, roughly but brightly colOred,
representing the dress worn in days long
gone by. A delightful excursion is by
the little lake steamer as far as Norat, a
quaint old world town about three hours
distance from NeuchateI. Here are
funny old streets, narrow and furnished
with arcades built Of stone, under which
are the oldest little shops Imaginable

4 Dog Made Useful.

One young couple who saw the
storming of the ice fortress last night
was not annoyed by the crowd. Some
time ago the young lady's fayorite dog
died, and as 4 memento Of the departed
she had its hide tanned Last evening
she carried along this skin TO stand
upon so that her feet, which, by the
way, are of generous mold, should
not become chilled by the underlying
ice and snow. This was found i'm
practical, however, because of the
continued and violent movement Of
the crowd. So the girl rolled up the
skin and held it in her arms so that
it closely resembled a living pug.
The young man who escorted her is
something OF a ventriloqust, and
whenever some anxious spectator
began to elbow in their direction he
caused the counterfeit pup to utter a
snarl 50 terrible as to check the move
ment of the elbower. Soon the by
ISLANDERS acquired the idea that the
pug was suffering from hydrophobia.
and left the young deceiver5 extra
standing room.-AtbdHy Journal.

The Language of Kisses.

A lady, who, evidently understands
what she IS writing about, informs US
that a kiss on the forehead denotes
reverence for the intellect; a kiss on
the cheek, that the donor is impressed
with the beauty of the kissed one; but
that a kiss on the lips is token Of
love. kissing the hand Of another ex-
presses willingness to serve her: but
kissing your hand TO another is love
token, signifying that You would kiss
her with your.whole affection and grace
if she We're near enough.-Aea0 York

Hunting the Tiger.

You must know. first of all, that the
tiger az seen cooped up in cage at
some circus, or in a geological garden,
is very different from the animal as he
appears in his native Jungle In the
circus he is so "cabined, crihbed, con-
fined that he is never able properly to
stretch his muscles, and the roar with
which he greets the keeper who brings
his food resembles the roar with which
he aWakens the echoes OF the forest, as
the piping Of a tin trumpet resembles
the screech of a steam-Whistlc. 1t is
difficult to describe the roar OF tiger
when he is angry. 1t is not like the
lions, which is more nearly a ''bel-
low, bat perhaps you can realize it
when | say that it is as if a thousand
tom-cats gave one wild and prolonged
'meow." Tigers are generally hunted
IN two ways: one is. shooting from the
HoUdGh of a pad elephant, which is
a comparatively safe method; the other
IS to shoot them from a Hlccchau732. or
platform of boughs fixed in tree.
When the latter method is adopted a
bait, in the form of bullock, either
alive or dead, is generally used to at
tract the tiger; or else the nleechdun is
built within range of the place to which
the animal IS accustomed to come for
his morning drink. The latter is per-
haps the commoner way, as shooting
tigers from the back OF an elephant is
rather expensive work and only within
reach of those who have long purses

A gentleman, living in small city in the West, had inherited consump. tion from h,s father, and the doctor told him he must die. He stopped taking their weakening physiu and tried Dr. pierce's Golden Medical Dis covsry. In three months he was strong and well. The gentleman s neighbors knew how slcbly he former ly was, and asked him to state in pub lie how he had been cured. He ad- yertised to lecture on certain even. ing, in the public hall, and there was a large audience present. Tbls was hIs lecture: 4 picture of himself, be- fore, and one after, he tried the reme. dy, and five empty bottles If Pieree's Golden Medical Discovery.

N0 APPROPRIATION.

In reply to our inquiry whether or not an appropriation had been made Dor buildings at the site of the rre- posed military post near Globe, iion. N. A. Smith informs us, under date of Oct. 2nd, that tue Senate refused to make an appropriation for building any particular post or garrison, but both houses concnrred ill an apprs- pristion of $l50,000, to be expended by the Secretary of War in such build. lugs and repaws a' he may deem most necessary. MT. Smith says further that this is the only fund on which q building can draw for this fiscal year, TEo only hope now of securing funds for tho prosecution of work on the new post site, this year, is in special appropriation bill which ii may be possible to obtain action upon at the next session of Congress, commencing December 4th. If only S10,000 or Sl5,000 could be had, enough to pipe the water to the vicinity of Holmes wells, upon the completion of this work one or two companies could be stationed there.

A. H. Merehead, formerly resident of Globe, 4. T., was unanimously re- nominated by the Democratic County Convention of Grant county, N. Nj, for lucrative office which he had hitherto filled 10 the satisfaction of the people of that county. The Reppbli- cans, recognizing that fact. instead of placing candidate in opposition, also adopted him as their candidate But this state of universal appreciation was looked for aud could not have been otherwise for the reason that Morebead is square with bis fellow citizens, good.hu nored, abouhding in kind hearted affection. which is con stantly peeping from tho loop-holes of the heart, awaiting an opportunity to benefit his fellow mortals, and with all, is brainy and competent to inc dis charge of any official trust. The only thing that can be said in derogation of Morehead, is tbat he is fat, and If in the waist he is two yards about, he is less disposed to locomotion, and, there fore, better adapted for office duty than one with less porily belly, It is well known fact that burgomas- tors were chosen because of their obe- sity, and there is no reason why tue choice of these intended for the pubic service should not rest on those whose weight kicks the bean, at the highest figure
