The coyote is in reality nothing
but wild dog with a suggestion of
the wolf in the shape of the head.
Its scientific name, CAMS aternas,
suggests its general type. 1t is com
mon throughout the Pacific slope
and is classed with "varmint," be.
cause it will, in the absence of other
prey, steal barnyard fowls or kill
lambs and sheep. It's grayish-yel-
low fur, winter beneath the body,
is much like that of the timber wolf,
and its pointed muzzle, sharp eyes
and erect ears are foxlike. 1t lives
by preference in the wooded districts
or where it can find thickets for
shelter.
By day it usually remains con-
cealed and only ventures out at dusk
when it may sometimes be seen
searching about for food. 1t is So
ciable little animal, often travelling
in packs and usually in company
with at least ono of its kind. When
night has closed in, the coyote be-
comes noisy, yelping in a sharp, pro-
longed cry that is not unpleasant.
Two of the animals often hunt to-
gether and are more than a match
for a grown sheep. -Kansas City

The Care Of Brushes.

Do not neglect your paint brushes.
Dip them in an old can containing ben
zine. kerosene or turpentine, then wash
thoroughly with soap and hot water.
Pearline is even better than soap; it re-
moves the color rapidly and does not in
jure the bristles if they are well rinsed
in clear water afterward. Put your
brushes in jar, handles down, and
leave them to dry. One of the oldest
sights III an artists studio is the number
of brushes disposed in various artistic
bits of pottery in hooks and corners.
Some painters pride themselves on
owning many hundreds of brushes of
every possible style and size. Handsome
brushes are ruined if let dirty; itmakes
the hairs come out, but the large brushes
used in common work will not be in
jured by being left in water over night
if you intend to use them for the same
colors next day.
Burn your paint rags when you have
done with them. Oily rags are very in
fiamInable and sometimes take fire spon-
taneously when left i'll heap in some
corner.-Harper's Young People.

In the colony Zenon Pereira, says the
Argentine News. lived an Italian colonist
named Octavia Viale, who had been mar
ried but three weeks and was a wealthy
man. His brother keeps an almacen quite
close to the colony. 1t appears that he
was taking his wife to his house one Sun
day, the two riding in a cart, and when
passing the house of the juez de pas (mag-
istrate), naturally suspecting nothing,
this legal officer came out of the doorway

his revolver and fired, shooting the unfor-

simultaneously. Luckily the criminal was
caught, and the colonists were with diff
Guilty persuaded from lynching him. He
is now awaiting trial. The body of the
dead man was buried next day, all the
colonists attending. We hope adds The
News, the law will refuse to allow such a
bloodthirsty villain to live to play any
more of his murderous Jokes

The stables of King Humbert of Italy
are exceptionally fine, and contain at
present nearly $50 horses, chiefly Eng
lish bred. The double row of stalls
forms a regular street, so beautifully
kept that it is pleasure to walk
through it, and each animal has his
name printed in large letters on little
board above the manager. Among the
English horses may be noticed such
names as Flirt. Milford, Lawn Tennis,
EPSON and Gentleman.
Up stairs are the state carriages and
those used on special occasions. Some
of these are magnifcently upholstered

A Duck Filled with Gold.

the Atlanta Constitution: 81 noticed the
other day Pekin duck that was moping
about and making strange motions with
its head. / decided from its actions that
it had some foreign substance in its di-
gestive organs and would consequently die.

ton and see what it was. On opening the
duck found, to my surprise, two pieces

denomination they We're, but think they
must have been one dollar pieces. The

The Rev. DR.. Putnam, Tor many
years one of the ablest and most be-
loved of the Unitarian clergymen
about Boston, went on one occasion
to preach in a New Hampshire vii
lage. He was effusively greeted by
one of the congregation, who said to
him; DIR. Putnam. am delighted
to hear you again. l remember
when you preached here before, some
ten years ago, and shall never for
get your sermon"
"Ah!' said the doctor, pleased to
be remembered. What was the
subject of my sermon?"

the reply.

An Irish family once had ghost so
troublesome that they sent for detec-
tives. One of these men late at night
fell asleep in his chair. The lady of the
house CHANGED to come into the room
and could not resist the temptation to
groan and rattle her keys She had
never played ghost before; it was mo-
mentary indiscretion. But the police
man did not. and could hardly be ex-
pected to, believe this. He said it was
hardly worth while to bring him from
Dublin, and he withdrew in dudgeon.
Yet the lady was not really the ghost.
He was sulking in retirement. Hence

A Cruel Test.

A good looking, well to do young
was being teased by the young ladies of
a club for not getting married. He said:
"I'll marry the girl of your club whom,
on secret vote, you elect to be my
wife" There were nine members of the
club. Each girl went into corner, and
used great caution in preparing her bal
lot, and disguised the handwriting. The
result of the vote was that there were
nine votes cast, each girl receiving one.
The young man remains bachelor, the
club is broken up sSd the girls are all
mortal enemies, united in the one de-
termination that they will never speak
to that nasty man again. Free

murderer by accident or sudden heat rather
than by nature.
Benedict Zucher, who killed his own
father, has both thumbs absolutely en-
billie, and the scaffold sign sharp and
distinct in each hand. His hands are per-
fectly typical, according to Desbarolles'
theory.
John Riddle, who murdered convict in
the penitentiary, after he had received
life sentence for murder committed in
Shelby county, is another prisoner who has
the murderer's characteristic hand in every
detail.
Johnny Beal, Of Pre5le county, con

age Of thirteen of killing his own mother,
has hands perfectly free of the distinctive
sign. So has George W. Brashears, con-
victed also ON circumstantial evidence, and

astonishing degree. Some of the women,
however, have the signs but very slightly.

perfect ''murderer's hand"-the square,
dubious thumb, with a short nail, the
outer edge of the hand high and the cline
of life directly bisecting the line OF head
just under the second finger" Desbarolles
explains it thus: The thumb distinguishes
man from all similarly formed animals;
the nearer the thumb is to that of an ape
or gorilla the more animal in the man,
therefore the more murderous fury when
aroused. So take stock of your thumb,

It was the lot Of young parson to be
embarrassed by the appeals Of two young
women who wanted to marry the same
bridegroom. The first conner of these
had scarcely told how her faithless lover
had actually put up the banns in the
East End parish when the delinquent
turned up with an idiotic grin on his
face and q gayly appareled young wom-
an on his arm What could the parson
then a young and bashful curate-do
but invite the trio into the yestry room,
there to discuss the business. Luckily
for him, it speedily leaked out that there
had been no legal residence in his par
ish, which afforded him at once suffi-
Gent ground for declining to perform
the ceremony.
On another occasion the awful dis
covery was made that the bride had by
accident been described in the marriage
license by her pet name. 1t was sug-
gested that an affidavit of identity sworn
at neighboring police court might re-
pair the blunder. This was done Just in
time to complete the ceremony within
canonical hours, but the accommodate
ing clergyman afterward received q
stern ACCOMPLISHMENT from high quarters
