FRIDAY MORNING, MAR. Ill, 1892.
A smart once Bows work.


A clever and well known woman
writer recently paid visit to an edi.
tor to confer with him over a manu-.
script he had asked of her AS she
opened her card case she noticed only
one left, which she regretted, having
q second visit to make that morning.
She sent it in, however, and shortly
followed it. The editor was alone,
except for young clerk at a table
near the door, and they were soon
discussing the article she had writ
ten. 1t did not please him, and after
considerable talk, rather decided on
each side, she arose to withdraw.
The young clerk had left the room
a moment before, and as Miss Blank
passed out it occurred to her quickly
that she could secure her card, which
lay on the table near by. With a
slight movement she did 80, con-
graduating herself on the happy
thought. But she did not send the
card in at her next stop. Slipping it
in her case when she was again in
the street, she saw on the reverse
side that the wicked young man had
used his employers time and his own
considerable talent in sketching an
absurdly exaggerated picture of her
self weeping dejectedly over the
returned manuscript, The likeness
was perfect, the sketch vigorous and
striking, and Miss Blank values it
highly. Her Point of View in New
York Times.

are usually not productive.

Jerome K. Jerome, the jolly young
Englishman who has bloomed into sue
cess as playwright and author, says he
means some day to have chair built on
purpose for him. In order to get it to
ut him exactly he means to sit down in
mass of damp clay so as to leave the
exact imprint of his seated body. Then he
will roll about in the clay and move from
side to side till he hollows out space
large enough to fit his every mood and
movement. After this is done, by means
of springs, wood and upholstery he will
have precise reproduction of this hole
in the clay made for him. Then he will sit
in the reproduction and be comfortable.

The wagging of tho Dogs Tail.

Professor Elmer, in his work on
Organic Evolution, is not able to ex.
plain why the dogs of Constantinople
erect the tail and carry it upright,
while the ancestral wolf and the
jackal carry it hanging down. DR..
Joseph L. Hancock suggests that the
reason may be found in the fact that
as the dog becomes domesticated it
is prone to use the tail as an organ
for expressing mental states-wag-
ging it when pleased, dropping it be-
tween the legs when disappointed or
frightened. The ancestral wolf car
ries it hanging down, because in that
position it is less conspicuous and
better eludes detection. A family of
wolves playing together undisturbed
occasionally carry their tails curled
upward.
By degrees the tail acquires natu-
rally the upright position as result
of coincident evolution of the mind
of the wolf by domestication and of
the slow adaptation of the appendage
as an organ of expression. The ces-
sation of natural selection in the do
nestle dog would give the tail great
er freedom of motion without detri-
ment to life, and artificial selection
modites it into various shapes

A Psternal Government.

Emperor William, who ever since his
accession 10 the German throne has been
calling himself the father of his people
and telling them that if they obeyed his
will all would be well with them, but if
they did not obey him they would be
"ground to powder" ought least of all
to have been surprised at the Berlin
riot, His will, be it observed, he con-
siders the same as that of the Almighty.
He has said so, If, then, his children
come to him bowling for bread when
they are hungry, it is quite the right
thing for them to do, All children go
bowling to their parents when they want
something to eat, Emperor William has
constantly preached to the German pee
pie that he was the one and the only one
who could redress their wrongs, of what
ever nature, When, therefore, 10, 900 of
them, many with families starving at
home, marched to his palace door crying
for employment, it was unkind, not to
say cruel, for William to have his sol
diers and police charge into their midst
and dispense them, 1t was not the part
of parent. He ought to have emptied
out the last bit of food in the palace
storerooms to them.
1t seems possible that the father bust
ness may be carried too far in case of a
government, for it leads the people to
depend on the paternal government
when they ought to be stirring their wits
to help themselves out of bad situa-
ton. That is what they would do in
republic, where men are trained to de-
pend on themselves. A curious feature
of the Berlin riots is that the socialists
on whom it has been the fashion to
blame every disturbance in Germany for
the last thirty years, repudiate root and
branch all responsibility for the riot.
They declared at public meeting that
they had no share in it. Further, they
passed resolution to the effect that So
clalists must abstain from disorder, since
this only furnishes government a pre-
text for repressive measures. 1t will be
queer indeed if in the course of time the
only lawabiding citizens of Emperor
William should be the socialists.
The bad crops and the Barring failure,
with Emperor Williams foolish speech
at Brandenburg, were the cause of the
riots at Berlin. The majority of the
rioters were really unemployed work
lngmen, as it appears, men who, though |
they had no food, still seem to have
been able to get plenty of drink.

A bulletin from the North Dakota sta
ton calls attention to the fact that the
disease known as deep scab of potatoes
attacks the various varieties of beets and
probably some other garden vegetables
To quote from this bulletin: las most
Of these in common with the beets are
raised from the seed, the means of avoid.
ing its evil effects is evident Do not
sow the seed upon old potato ground
known to be diseased The disease on
sugar beets reaches proportions more ex,
tensive than ever noted upon potatoes,
often the greater part of the surface being
covered. With the beet it does not as a
rule result in cavities, but the corky
formations are very extensive. 1t has
its conception at the points where the
pith rays touch the surface 1t is at
these points that the rootlets arise from
the beet, hence the scabs injure many
points on the surface that might else be
occupied by the fine roots that supply
nourishment.
