ABOUT SALAMANDERS,
The Habits of OEs of the Most Harmle
of Batrachian Creatures

The Habits of OEs Of the Most Harmless
of Batrachian Creatures.
Considerable ignorance exists, even
among persons of education, as to
the habits Of the salamander. The
mere mention Of this harmless little
batrachian recalls to the minds of
most people mystic ideas with respect
TO fre-eating and fre-inhabiting Great
ures, which have probably caused
many Of the poor little brutes to be
burnt by experimental philosophers
who should have been far above be-
lief in such absurdities. The spotted
salamander is lamp-black, with nu-
merous large, yellow spots and stripes,
and is very common all over Southern
Europe as well as in Northern Africa
It haunts all manner of dark and cool
places, such as cavities under logs
Of wood. and holes in old walls,
where they can find supply of
insects, worms, Or slugs. It is an in
teresting sight to watch the sala-
% lander when about to make a meal of
worm. For few minutes it remains
almost motionless, with its large black
eyes turned down upon the victim.
Then. with marvellous rapidity, it
pounces down upon the worm, and
seizes it by the middle; the extremi-
ties are left twisting violently around
the muzzle. 1t then pushes the worm
piece by piece down its throat, by
means of it's elawless and nailless fore
paws. ALI the salamander's move
ments are performed with such absurd
solemnity that the most hardened rep
tile-hater could not be uninterested.
Sometimes the simple operation Of
swallowing large worm will last full
II twenty minutes. knowledge.

Where Cow-Bells Are Made,

Collinsville, ILL.,, is d great place for
cattle bells. That COW bells are made
and do not grow on trees Or elsewhere
seems to surprise some people, but
there are four establishments in the
United States which are exclusively
devoted to the manufacture of that res
onant article, and two Of these are in
Collinsville. One hundred and fifty
dozen are turned out daily and thou
sands of them dangle from the necks
Of unfortunate cows all over the prai-
ries of North and South America. The
manufacture Of cow-bells is entirely
distinct from that of other bells. In
stead of being nodded the metal is
rolled into sheets, cut into sy1nmetric-
al polygons, which. when folded, are
pressed into their well-known form.
Having been rivetted they are next
packed in clay and brought to a white
heat. When suddenly cooled these
steel bells are found to be not only
tempered, but also beautifully brazed.

An Old Time Partisan,


1t is easy to recall to mind his familiar
figure as he sits, during winter evenings,
in his favorite corner.
In his easy chair, with zine, in hand and
his silver-rimmed ''specs'' pushed back
until they find u soft resting place on his
beloved snoW-white head, with eyes spark
ling and his face beaming with pleasure, as
he calls back old memories of DAYS long
gone by, he lslikely to talk something after
this fashion:
''It's long time since was a bow. All.
but that was many years ago. Sixty long
years have gone and the good Lord knows
they were short enough. I was then as
spruce and pert as any chap thereabouts
ION, but we boys were boys Things
have changed heap since those days
Boys then didn't take much stock in stylish
clothes and they didn't carry canes like
they do now Clothes and canes didn't cut
much caper then, but it was good hard
sense and work.
1.-The boy who could do the biggest davis
work-could cut the most wood, split the
most rails. plow the most corn, was the
most envied for he was sure to have the
sweetest and best loolkn' gal at the sslngiu'
school or apple peelin'.'
II tell YOU those were good old times!
II didn't. think any thing Of going thirty
mile or more to see your grandmother,
and we didn't have very good roads either,
but generally had to follow some old Indian
trail.
"Talkln' about sickness then, there was
no sickness like now If we had u cold, q
pain, or any thing, there was the best med
icine i'll the world found in any log cabin
home you came across. Why. l remember
that my old grandmother, God bless her
soul, she's been dead these fifty years or
more, could make the best home made
medicine for miles around Her .sarsapa-
rllly' couldn't be beat. Come to think
just read in the paper about somebody who
is making this same Old log cabin medicine
under the name Of Warmers Log Cabin

1T does seem splendid to think that you
can buy those good Old home cures at the
druggists nowadays.
"Mebby you think people were not
healthy in those days, but tell you that it
was mighty seldom anybody was sick lon
when they had such good old grand
mother medicine so handy.

the national government had no moral right

lead to a prompt remedy.

After the business meeting the delegates

particularly as to sectional difficulties. The
Interview has been strongly condemned by
