Nothing delight ed it so much as to hop out of the cage on to my finger, fly to my shoulder and mani fest its great delight by stopping, ruffiing its feathers, spreading its wings in quivsr- ing pleasure, and sticking out its little bill to be kissed like pouting child.
 l had it in the shop one day, hopping around, when it suddenly fell over as in fit, but recovered only to relapse into an other while on my shoulder and died in my hands. I buried it lovingly back of the barn with post for hesdstone.

South Dakota robber recently secured his freedom in a peculiar way. He was sentenced for "one-half of his life"-that is, one-half of what remained. Of course such a sentence could not stand any con- stitutional test. The original statute of Dakota provided that the penalty for an unsuccessful attempt at highway robbery should be one-half the greatest penalty for the successful commission of the crime, this penalty being imprisonment for life. In pronouncing sentence in this case the court having original jurisdiction had to guess the number of the prisoners remain ing years and then divide by two

STEPNlAK'S ADVENTURES.
The Russian Revolution;st Tells a Thrill.
ing Story of His First Arrest.

Scrgius Stepniak, the Russian revolu-
| tionary leader, now lecturing in this
country. tells some thrilling stories of
his experience rs Nibilist. Among
the more interesting of these was that
of his first arrest.
With companion he was found at
work among the peasants. teaching
them his unlawful ideas and making
friends rs we'll as converts Four
policemen took them to a village on
the way to a prison set apart for
political offenders, and stopped there
for the night. Then came friends from
among the peasants bringing MANY
bottles of Russian brandy to the police,
SO that by midnight each officer was
dead drunk and the prisoners were free
to run. They did Iun. hoping to reach
larger place some distance away. and
there get horses to carry them to a
railroad station. They undertook to
cross a swamp to save distance. 1t was
Il freezing night, but the ice was in
places too thin to bear their weight. so
that they frequently fell into the water
waist deep, and their clothing became
stiff with ice.
W o'oC IMAM an liltN lOSl lliciI hdt.
and after two and half hours came out
on highway but half an hours walk
from the place they had escaped from.
1t WAS now so near daylight that horses
must be procured or recapture was in
evitable. and yet they feared that if
they applied for help in this village
they would find some one who would
recognize them.
There was no help for it however,
and they at once went to Il house where
light was seen. a party enjoying Il
dance was found there. They walked
Ill and the first man they met was Il
constable from the other village, who
had seen them under arrest. He looked
ut them suspiciouSly. but Stepniak
walked up and greeted him enthusiast
tically.
But | saw you under arrest ycster-
day" said the constable.
Certainly. but it was all a mistake.
An order came from tie Government
ordering our release. Here is the order
We want horses" and Stepniak pulled
out copy of a song he had made.
trusting that the constable was Hitter
ate. And so he was; but he was sharp
enough 10 demand that the escaped
prisoners 60 to the village clerk, who
could read.
At this Stepniak and his friend deter
mined to tight rather than be recaptur-
ed, but before there was a necessity for
that girl said the clerk had gone to a
wedding. This was good news. for he
was sure TO be drunk. and so away
they went found him so. and then, hav-
inc passed his stupid scrutiny. they
mounted horses and fled to a railroad
stat ION much further away than they
needed TO have gone. There. instead
OF taking train that would carry them
further away, they took 4 train that
carried them back near the scene of
their escapc-they doubled on their
track At one station they saw a
crowd of officers watching for them.
but no search was made in the ears. and
they reached Moscow and friends in
safety.
As described by Stcpniak. the life of
political outlaw is one of thrilling cx-
element until he is captured; then he
Is executed, commits suicide, becomes
insane, or quickly dies of hardships in
prison or exile in Siberia.

BIRDS THAT EAT STONES.
The Emo Points North Because of What
He Swallowed.

Keeper Patrick Marin of tie Cen
trail park menagerie gives some infor-
nation on the diet of the ostrich and
other large-stomached birds says the
n Y. EUeHi1G san.
II is we'll known that these birds
swallow IL regular allowance of stones
every day. but it is supposed that their
only purpose Is to aid digestion. Mr..
Marin. however SAYS that they are
digested. He is willing TO repeat this
assertion before all tie academies of
science in the world. Keeper Martins
sentiments are summed up as follows:
''fhayory alone is not wurruth dam.
But thayory and experience together
is a valuable thing" lie believes he
has this. His experience with ostrlches
extends over manx years. he has
seen them eat all kinds of stones, from
chunks of granite to diamonds. and be
knows that they digest them. 1t should
be said that the ostrich does little else
but eat. and has therefore a very pow
erful digestion. Unlike man and the
qnadrupeds, he never gives his stomach
"a rest except when he is asleep.
The cassowarv has Il passion for
brilliant stones. This bird is Il relative
of the ostrich. but is distinguished By
his hairless blue and violet neck. He
once served a useful purpose in the
following rhyme:
''ir / were a cassowary.
On the banks of Timbuctoo
] would eat missionary,
Aud his gown and hymn book, too"
Unfortunately for this charming
composition the cassowary does not
grow near Timbuctoo. bat is a native
of the MoIuccas and other East Indian
islands. There can be no doubt. how
ever, after what Mr.. Marin has said.
that the bird could eat and digest
missionary.
A short time ago n visitor to the
menagerie held his hand toward a cas-
sowry. On it was Il ring, i'll which II
goOd-siZed diamond was loosely set.
Without the least hesitation the casso-
wary picked ont the stone and swal-
lowed it, and 10 one has ever seen it
The same thing has often happened
before. The cassowary, SAYS Keeper
Marin, is bird which usually eats
whatever it feels inclined to without
regard to its composition.
ne emu, another member OF the
ostrich family, is also addicted to the
stone-eating habit. But one of them
in the menagerie has found out kind
of stone which he is apparently I'M
able TO digest. This was a loadstone.
which he swallowed more than a year
ago. Since then the bird has pointed
due northerly, from which fact it is in
fcrred tina. lie retains the loadstone
ard is unable to resist its polar at
traction. The poor bird is painfully
conscious of his misfortune, and when
anybody is looking at him tries to turn
10 some other point of the compass,
but is obliged to resume before long
his northerly direction.

How To Wash The Hands.

Now, about your hands. Wash them
in hot water, using almond meal in
stead of soap just before you go to
bed, and during the day don't wash
them too much in cold water A wo-
man who has very beautiful hands told
me that during the daytime she wiped
off any stain that might he upon them
with piece Of kid on which was a lit
tie vaScine. However, | am a bit old
fashioned and prefer water to this.
Then when you have the time, sit with
your finger tips in bowl of hot water,
and after they have soaked well, dry
them aud trim the nails, keeping tie
skin ut the basa of each down in its
place. Push 1t down either with the
end of IA soft ivory file. or bit of wood,
