Out of Her Element.

Termagancy comes into the genius
of our race. The common scold, who
was treated with the branks and the
ducking stool, found her less person
ally brutal but no more intrinsically
refined copy among the fine ladies of
courts and palaces; and the shrew's
shrill tongue has never wanted for ex-
ercise in any time or sphere. What but
shrew could have been the mother
of Robert de Insula, Bishop of Dur
ham in 12742 Having given her a
train of male and female servants, and
an honorable establishment as befitted
her dignity, the bishop went to see
the old dame to see how things Jared
with her. "How fares my sweet mo-
there" said he. ''Never worse" "quoth
she. "And what ails thee or troubles
thee2 Hast thou not men and women
attendants enow2" said he. "Yea, "
quoth she, land more than enow. 1

Evidently Her Own Hair.

A pretty married woman living near
Americus, Ga, owns o COW that she
thinks the world of. She milks the
COW herself, as she does not want her
spoiled by endless attention. Since
the crops have been gathered tho COW
has been running in the fields, and
the brush of her tail got filed with
cookie burrs. One morning last week
the lady went into the pen to milk,
and while she was performing the
duty, the cow switched her tail into
the neatly done up hair on the ladys
head. The burrs caught, and the lady
dropped her pan of milk and began to
entangle her hair. Tho operation dis
turbed the COW, and she began to
prance. The lady grabbed the tail
with both hands, and said: $50
wench so wenchl' - but the wench, not
liking the grip, started in a trot
around the pen. The lady startled
the household by her shrieks, and a
negro woman ran to her rescue, but she
had to return to the house for pair
of scissors. The cow was driven into
q stall, her tail trimmed of and left
sticking to the lady's head. She went
to the house, and it took her husband,
the negro woman and the family until
10 o'clock that night to pick the burrs
from her head. Atlanta American.

At glance, tho striking differences
between the Asiatic and African ele-
plants arc appreciated through the eye.
One soon becomes familiar with the
various forms of ou American deer,
and has a better realizing sense of the
fact that the elk resort to the noun
tain fastpesses as their normal haunts,
while our antelope rarely quit the
plains. From school days up, the
American youth, by such means, gains
a knowledge of the forms of the mag
nificent representatives of the various
fauna of his land, in comparison with
which the illustrations in the text
book, although not to be altogether de-
spised, are inadequate.
Here the sculptor, artist and engrav-
er can, at their leisure, study the no
blest forms under the most advanta-
geous OF circumstances. Leopards and
pumas may be caught in the very act
OF high noon siesta, or perchance in
some short and fiery quarrel, showing
all the lineaments of anger character
istic of their race when aroused. Orni-
biologists may catch for their folios the
transitory tints of the growing plu-
images of trogons and toucans as they
disport themselves in their large, airy
cages, in q manner to be achieved un-
der no other conditions.
1t is here, again, that O thousand
facts each year are brought directly
under the observation of the natural
ist and specialist in every department
of biology-nidification in all its de-
tails among birds; all the data in con-
nection with the breeding habits of
mammals; and volume of unwritten
lore having reference to the life his
tories of our native reptiles and their

Dogs at the Table.

One hardly expects to see a bulldog
sitting on chair, with a napkin tied
around his neck, at table in a fash
ionable restaurant. But the other
night the sedate guests at q restaurant
in this city beheld this very sight.
The dog, fine animal of correct be-
havior, took dinner in this fashion
with his master and some other gen.
tlemen, and it was noticeable that the
walters showed him great respect.
Upon inquiry you will find it is just
now the very properest thing, if you
are anxious to keep up to the jeun-
esse doree, to take your English bull
dog with you wherever you go, and
to treat the animal, exactly as if he
were your equal in intelligence and po-
sition. Unfortunately we cannot as
certain how the dogs regard this fash
ion. -Pittsburg Dispatch.
