Feeling For Animals.

The power of feeling for animals,
realizing their wants and making their
pains our own, is one which is most ir-
regularly shown by human beings. A
Timon may have it and Howard be de-
void of it. A rough shepherds heart
may overflow with it and that of an ex-
quisitely fine gentleman and distin-
guished man of science may be as utter
ly without it as the neither milestone.
One thing think must be clear-till
man has learned to feel for all his sem
tient fellow creatures, whether in human
or brute form, of his own class and sex
and country or of another, he has not
yet assembled the first step towards true
civilization nor applied the first lesson
from the love of God. -Picayune.
Sullivan republican. [volume] (Laporte, Pa.) 1883-1896, 1890-03-07
The Economical Chinese.

fhe Chinese are pre- eminently Geo.
nomical, whether it be in limiting the
number Of wants, in preventing waste
or in adjusting forces in such a manner
as to make little represent great
deal. The universal diet consists of
rice, beans, millct, garden vegetables
and fish, with little meat on high fes-
tivals.
Wholesome food in abundance may
be supplied at less than a penny a day
for each adult, and even in famine
times thousands of persons have been
kept alive for months on about a half
penny day each. This implies the ex-
istence of high degree of culinary
skill in the Chinese.
Their modes of preparing food are
thorough and various. There is no
waste; everything is made to do as
much duty as possible. What is left is
the veriest tritle. The physical condi-
tion of the Chinese dog or cat, who has
to live on the leavings of the family,
shows this. They are clearly kept on
starvation allowances.
Another example OF care full, calculat-
ing economy is the construction of the
cooking pots and boilers, the bottoms
of which are as thin as possible that the
contents may boil all the sooner, for
fuel is scarce, and consists generally of
nothing but the stalks and roots of the
crops, which mako rapid blaze and
disappear.
The business of gathering fuel is COM
mittcd to children, for one who can do
nothing else can at least pick up straws
and leaves and weeds. In autumn and
winter a vast army of fuel gathercrs
spread over the land. Boys ascend
trees and beat them with clubs to shake
off the leaves; the very straws get no
time to show which way the wind blows
before they are annexed by some col.
lector.

eUnless the Colombian Government
is CAREFUL" says the San Francisco
Chronicle, at will find itself in difficult
ties with the United States. 1t has seized
some American vessels, apparently upon
wholly insufficient grounds, and an ex
PLANTATION is demanded by the state de-
partment. A few months ago the Co.
lombians got very saucy and proposed
to whip the whole continent, beginning
with the United States but it was sup
posed thst they had thought better of
it. Now they have waxed valiant
again, it seems, and are swelling and
strutting about as though they were
somebody. Perhaps they may have to
receive q lesson to teach them the diff
ference between little country and a
big one."

Thirsty Travellers Tree.

A European trave Ter, on his way from
the coast of Madagascar to the capital,
Tanaparivo, IN the interior, had emp
tied his water flask and was suffering
from thirst. IIe asked one of the ma
tives of his party when he should be
able to obtain water.
"Any time you like it" said the ma
tive, smiling.
The European saw no signs of springs
or water; but the native cond ucted him
to group of tall, palm like trees,
standing in cluster on the edge of the
forest, with straight trunks and bright
green, broad leaves growing from the
opposite sides of the stalk, and MAX
ing the tree appear like a great fan.
The white man gazed admiringly at the
tree.
''You think it is fine tree, "said the
native, "but l will show you what it is
good for"
He pierced the root OF one of the leaf
stems at the point where it joined the
tree with his spear, whereupon a stream
of clear water spurted out which the
European caught in his water can, and
found cool, fresh and excellent to drink.
The party having satisfied their thirst
and taken supper, the native who had
spoken went on,
''This tree, which is good for us in
more ways than one, we call the travel
ers' tree"
'sBut where does the water come
from that tho tree contains" asked the
white man. '.Is 1t taken up from the
soil?"
"Oh, no." said the native. 'The
leaves drink in the rain that falls on
them and when it has passed all through
them it becomes very pure and sweet"
Sullivan republican. [volume] (Laporte, Pa.) 1883-1896, 1890-03-07

The Washington Star thinks 'the
London Lancet has inspired some of the
London correspondents of American
newspapers with the fear that cholera
will come next summer in the wake of
the Russian influenza. Cholera is now
in Persia and Kurdistan, on the borders
of Turkey in Asia and Russia in Asia,
and not so very far from Great Britain s
Indian possessions. 1t is certainly a
duty of these three powers to be more
than usually watchful for the next seven
or eight months. As the grip has
affinitios with diphtheria and typhoid
fever it would ais be we'll for our own
people to put their bodies in sound,
fighting condition and make their
domiciles wholesome by removal Of all
decaying matter and the free use of
dsinfectsnts.
