Curious Habits of Frogs.

Frogs are fond of birds, which they
catch frequently. / sometimes give
them sparrow or two. They swallow
them down, feathers and all. Shortly
afterward you will see the feathers
come rolling out of their mouths, Just
as if some living thing were within
them plucking the feathers off. One
of my frogs became i'll the other day.
He had swallowed something that did
not agree with him. What do you sup
pose the old fellow did? Why, he Just
sat down on his launches and turned
his stomach inside out and washed it
in the water, and in a moment after
ward returned the organ to its proper
position. He always uses his hind
legs to remove the stomach when it is
disordered. Several of my frogs, you
will observe, have lost an arm or leg.
That was the condition in which
caught them. / have no doubt the
members were lost in some terrific
battle held in their native ponds. They
live to good old age. | have one
here which is ten years of age.

A Cat Hospital in New York.

Several women interested more or
less generally in the welfare of stray or
abused animals, but with special SYM
pathy for cats, met in New York and
took steps to incorporate society in
behalf of the feline wanderers. 1t was
decided that the society should be
known as the Society to Befriend Do
nestle Animals, its object being to pro-
vide shelter and food for homeless and
maltreated animals. Another one of
its stated objects is to "secure painless
death to animals rendered decrepit by
accident or incurable ailment," and
also another to /" secure, through edu-
cative agencies, the repression of all
forms of cruelty to animals" 1t is in
tended that farmhouse near Spuyten
Duyvil will be hired at cost of $50 a
month, with barn and adjacent, where
nearly thousand cats or other stray
abused animals can find rest. Stray
animals will be received free, but for
" boarders," aristocratic cats whose
owners leave them alone in the city
while they are in the country, charge
of fifty cents week will be made, and
dog board will cost 81 week.

The Wind on the Eiffel Tower.

Wind observations at the Eiffel tower
show that at low velocities of fifteen
miles per hour or less the velocity of
the wind at the top of the tower is from
four to five times as great as at the top
of an ordinary building sixty-nine feet
high; but as the velocity increases this
difference decreases, until at high We
locities the difference is only as two to
one. M. Eiifel assumed the pressure
to be forty-one pounds per square foot
at the base, increasing to eighty-two
pounds per square foot at the top,
which seems to be rather less differ
ence than the facts called for, although
fair approximation, if the above stated
decrease of ratio continues up to max
imum wind velocities.- Engineering

They Compromised.

A young married man named John
son in Chicago, who was drawing a
liberal salary, told his devoted wife that
every two-dolar bill that came to him
should be her pin money. Gradually
Mr.. Johnson's friends learned of the
promise, and began to conspire to help
out the popular young lady. If they
owed their friend anything they in
variably paid him in two-dollar bills.
Finally they got to borrowing from him
on purpose to liquidate in this way, and
still unsuspecting, Mr.. johnson con-
tinued to allow the bills to flow into the
willing lap of his better half. Finally
the cashier of the firm that employed
him learned of the generous promise,
and he, too, entered the conspiracy,
and on the next pay day handed Mr..
johnson a roll that staggered him.
Every dollar of it was in the denomi-
nation of two." Sweating under the
burden, the repentant husband wended
his way homeward. Mary" he said,
as he met her at the door, 1--WE got to
break my promise with you, for the
government at Washington has ceased
to print any money except in two-dolar
bills. All the VS. and KS, double KS,
LIS and C's are being sent to the paper
mills. Gold and silver have gone out
of circulation entirely. Nothing left,
if you will believe me, but copper and
two-dollar bills. I'm sorry, but must
break my promise or go into bank
ruptcy. Can't we compromise the mat
tar in some way, as, for instance, by
my giving you regularly fifty dollars a
a week?" They compromised.-San
Francisco ArgonaM.
