A very common error is to suppose
that birds sleep with the head beneath
the wing. No bird ever sleeps so; the
head IS turned round and laid upon the
back, where it is often concealed by
feathers.
That dogs are kept in health by the
addition Of birthstone to their drinking
water. Seeing that birthstone is utterly
insoluble IN water, says writer, l fail
to perceive what use it can possibly be to
the dog.
That cows are fond of buttercups.
Cows, as well as horses, in grazing care
fully avoid these plants, which are harsh,
astringent, and somewhat poisonous.

THE REGISTER.
How 1t Works on Itself and How 1t
Works on the Conductor.

The register, which was put upon all of
our street car lines this morning. and
which registers all the fares taken since
this 10 a. m, is a neat little nickel plated
cOntrivance. Its dimensions are four
inches long, three inches wide and about
two inches thick.
Above the upper right-hand corner is a
plate which tells whether the run is an
out or an in run. Directly below this is
have been taken on that one
run. When the plate is changed
from an out" run to an 'in" run,
or vice versa. the number of the fares is
cancelled and the indicator points to
zero.
In the lower left hand corner is the
general indicator which tells how many
fares have been taken altogether and this
cannot be changed or set except by the
proper person in the office.
PlacardS have been put up in the cars,
calling the attention of the passengers to
the fact that the conductors must regis
ter every fare taken. When he does this,
a small bell in the register is sounded and
the passenger knows that his fare is ac-
counted for.
The registers. the conductors say. are
pretty heavy little tricks, and pain their
neckS very severely. For this and other
| reasons the men have raised a consider
able kick against the new departure.
Several of them have struck and several
said they would not use the register
