Against this proposal they T aise the cry of
Taxation without representation" and alto

American colonies which ended 70 disastrously
for England something over a hundred years
ago. London would probably 20 the length OF
a declaration of independence but local
feeling runs very high and the problems
raised viii not prove easy for the government
to solve. The county council at their meeting
Yesterday passed resolutions refusing 10 grant
funds Tor the enforcement OF the act The
original question of the wisdom Of muzzlinc the
dogs was recently quite an exciting topic of
discussion throughout England is now entirely
lost sight OF in the clash of authority which
has grown out Of it. The quarrel is being
watched with keen interest here.

How to Milk a Cow.

The most economical way TO milk a
COW, all things considered, is to milk
the two fore teats, leaving OFF with a
pretty full stream, and then milk the
hind ones TO a short stream, and, re-
turning to the fore ones, milk them to
the same condition, not touching the
hind ones again. This will leave the
teats empty, and the bags too. 1t is a
false notion that Juggling away at the
teats stimulates "a COW to give more
milk. but on the contrary, emptying
the bag as soon as possible yields
more; then the COW can have the eX-
ira time to eat, which is a better
stimulus than either.
A slow mixer is never tolerated in
the dairy districts, and "strippern is
an injury anywhere. The sooner the
COW is MIXED. and all the organs con-
nected with feeding. digestion and Sc
erection are left in their natural condi-
ton, the better it is for the COW.

Popular Fallacies.

The antique worship of mystic num-
bers still shows its after-efTect in vari-
Gus popular superstitions, for instance,
the idea that young animals born blind
will open their eyes on the ninth day.
The truth is that the blindness
period of puppies va"ies from ten to
sixteen days, and that of kittens from
six to twelve. My children have "a
private roo of domestic and foreign
rodents, and after three years expert
ence have come TO the conclusion that
the young of white rats never open
their eyes before the fifteenth day, the
eighteenth day being the usual aver
age. The frequent assertion that
colds" will run their natural course in
nine days is equally erroneous. A
slight catarrh, characterized by all its
unmistakable symptoms, may come and
depart in three times twenty-four hours,
while chronic colds are often as per-
sistent as their cause, and may worry a
whole family from Christmas TO the
3 OF open windows. Country ex-
p-.ts in the phenomena of raiJles are
apt to assure the victim of swapping
cur that the bite of mad dog will
show is effect on the seventh day.
after which time (sometimes extended
10 the ninth day. the dread OF evil
consequences may be dismissed; but
the truth is that the virus of hyropho-
bia may remain latent for more than five
years, and after all. develop its germs
with fatal results. -Weetlv Press.

Even Queen Victoria Can Smile

One OF The American girls who was
presented at the queens drawing
room, was so embarrassed that she
made quite faux pas. She wholly
ignored the queen until after she had
saluted the Princess of Wales, when she
suddenly turned around and astonish-
ed her majesty by saying: "Oh, / beg
your pardon, madam" grabbed her
royal hand, kissed it,and then hurried
along the line. The queen, who is a
great stickler about matters of ETH
quette, at first looked angry; then
catching sight of the amused smile of
the Princess of Wales, she burst into a
pleasant laugh and sent the discomfit-
ed debutante away with few kindly
words. -Philadelphia Record.

another the tambofine, and the others,
