PLAIN WON EN-
Wholesome Advice for the Girls to Con
slider.

If all plain women displayed as much
common sense in settling the question
of personal appearance as a certain
bright New York girl, there would be
less replning and more agreeable com
panions among them.
Her arguments and conclusions are
both eminently satisfactory. She says
that slngly and collectively, each physi-
cal defect was taken under consider
alton, and every legitimate means en-
ployed to lessen her homely and en-
hance her attractive features.
To this matter, time, thought,
patience, and ingenuity were devJted,
and measure of success was attained.
But, after once giving the best of taste
and labor to her toilet, the whole sub
ject was promptly dismissed, and she
absolutely declined to fret or even think
about her looks.
Seeing hundreds of ugly women
worrying themselves i'll in futile efforts
to be beautiful, she avoided that
Scylla, and at the same time steered
clear of the Charybdis of slovenliness,
equally fatal to the PLAIN sisters.
By being unaffected and self forget
full, and by cultivating small talents to
deserve fair share of admiration, she
has made herself favorite, and rarely
is one thrown into contact with this
young person without wondering why
all ugly women are not equally lovely.

INTELLIGENT CHIMPANZEES.

Among the most remarkable stories
IN Mr.. Stanley's book on Africa is one
told to the explorer by Emin Pasha
Here it is:
The forest of Msongwa is infested
by tribe of chimpanzees of great
stature, which make almost nightly
raids on the villages and little. planta
tlons of the Mswa natives, carrying
away their bananas and other fruits.
There is nothing very remarkable about
this fact, since many kinds OF animals
make pillaglng forays upon the habi-
tations of men but the surprising part
of Emin's narrative is the statement in
these thievlng raids the chimpanzees
make use of lighted t1rches to hunt out
the fruits.
"It had no: been myself witness
of this spectacle" Mr.. Stanley reports
Emin as saying, nothing would have
ever made me believe that any race OF
monkeys possessed the art Of making
fire."
On one occasion, Emln says, a
chimpanzee of this intelligent tribe
stole a drum from the huts OF his
European troops and made off with
it, beating 1t as he ran.
The monkey took the drum to the
headquarters Of his own "people," who
were evidently much charmed with it,
for the Egyptian soldiers often heard
the monkeys beating it vigorously, but
r egularly. Sometimes in the middle
of the night some sleepless chimpanzee
would get up and 60 to beating the
drum.
But what other chimpanzees thought
of this midnight musical performance
will never be known positively, but,
from the fact that no sound of battle
and slaughter among the intelligent
chimpanzees ever followed, the Egyp-
tians were forced to conclude that they
liked it.
Here at least, therefore, sc find an
indication that the grade ofintelligence
of even the chimpanzees of Msongwa
is still far below that of the human race.

A PICTURE IN A HORSES EYE,

One of the most wonderful freaks
of nature the world has ever known
is now attracting attention in St.
Paul, and Spokane Falls figures as
the central figures in the phenome-
non. 1t is no less than horse that
bears in its left eye per ect picture
of the waterfull at Spokane Falls.
Tie eye has been seen and examined
by hundreds OF persons, and com
pared by them with photographs
and other pictures OF the falls, and
no one has yet failed to pronounce
it a correct picture. In discussing
the matter with reporter, Mr.. Dill
man said Mr.. Deakin sent the
horse down to the hotel where |
stopped, in order that | might see
him. The horse is white in color
and of medium size. | was some
what skeptical about the story until
l looked into the animals left eye,
when beheld a perfect reproduc-
ton Of the falls OF the Spokane
River as true to life as the best
photographs. The part OF the falls
shown is from the water works
across to the mills. The island on
which the water works stand is also
shown. The picture IS absolutely
perfect in every detail. The horse
was sold in ST. Paul with a number
of other horses, and the wonderful
picture in his eye was not discov-
cred until after he had passed into
the possession of MIR. Deakin. Hun
dreds of people have viewed the
horse, and lLr. Deakin has received
an offer Of $1,000 for him, which he
promptly refused. He also received
a hattering offer to exhibit the ami
NAL in the principal towns of Mon-
tana. No such phenomenon, or
whatever it may be called, was ever
heard of before, and the horse will
prove a graat advertisement to
Spokane Falls when placed on exhi-
bition.

New WAY of Testing Hrffk.

We again have bulletin introducing
q new method Of estimating tho fat in
milk. This one consists Of test bottles
with graduated neclcs, pipotte for
measuring the milk, a glass acid meas
ure and q centrifugal machine, kero-
gene gas lamp and commercial sulphuric
acid. Many words of precauton are
given as to ssmpling the milk, its care
full measurement Of milk and acid and
the mixing Of them by means of the
whirling machine. Cream is the most
difficult to sample. The cost of the
estimation of fat is smau-not over one
half cent per test. The only cost is the
sulphuric acid, except when a bottle is
broken by accident. 1t follows that it
is important to have the measure aeon
rate, and therefore all should be tested
before being sent out The test is not
patented, and is within the reach of all.

How Not TO Drive Team--A Ner~ens,
Fiery nan Should Never Undertake to
Teach IA Team to Draw Heavy Loads.
Better Drnught Horses, Better Drivers.
I have sand bank on my farm, and
besides selling sand TO several small vii
lagos sell to farmers for miles around
We know that sand is very heavy, aver
aging about 1900 pounds per yard, and
the ground is often soft in the bank. |
have learned to watch now customer
and his team closely. Tho amount that
a team will pull out Of the bank varies
from one-half yard TO two yards and
quarter. Probably one man with very
common looking team will load one and
half yards, carelessly take up his lines
and go out without any effort on the
part Of his horses.
Perhaps tho next team will be much
larger, better looking, with good bar
ness, etc, but before the man gets ono
yard loaded he will begin to look for a
good place to get out, complain Of the
ground being soft, finally put on few
more shovelfuls, then take large whip,
three times until they get as nervous
a. the driver, then halloo at them and
probably strike them. The chances are
that they will go at it in seesaw style,
until they will refuse TO pull or else
break something We have had single
trees scattered all around simply be-
cause the teams were not properly driven.
| have told parties to take off four good
horses, and then l have put on one good
team and pulled the load out with ease.
What is wanted is to learn how to use
their power, and to do it without get
ting excited.
a nervous, fiery man should never IN
dertalle to teach a team to draw heavy
loads. ! have seen men refuse to load
more than one yard, then begin to worry
their team as soon as out on the road,
probably trot part of the road home and
all the way back, and at night their
team wonld show moro fatigue than if
they had hauled one-half more and let
them take moro natural gait. One of
the first things to teach a team should
be that if they could not move a load
they would not be whipped; the next
| thing to learn is how much your team
can pull, and how fast they can travel
and not overtax their strength. 1t would
be surprise to many to see the farmers
of this neighborhood undertake to pull Il
heavy load, and it would often be diff
cult TO decide which is the most needed
