A Tanned Lion.

At the Zoo young lion from Sokoto
was much intent on breaking in the iron
shutter which separates the house 1t
now occupies from its former quarters
next door. Apart from the very proper
wish to assert right to its former DOM
icile, it had the irritating stimulus sup
piled by an i'll tempered and decrepit
old leopard which was growing on the
other side of the shutter, and even went
so far as to insert one of its longest teeth
into the crack between the shutter and
the wall as a reminder to the lion of
what was waiting for it on the other
side.
The lion was striking constant heavy
blows on the door, and was so intent on
its occupation as to disregard the call OF
its keeper. The keeper quietly attracted
its attention by pulling its tail!-and the
lion at once desisted, rubbed its face
against the keepers hand and lay down
to be stroked, patted and have its name
caressed. A very beautiful puma close
by exhibited all the pleasure of friend
" cat at being stroked, and the tiger
from Turkestan allowed himself TO be
fondled like big dog.-London Specta-

A Cordial Reception.

Early one morning, recently, called
to see a gentleman who had not yet left
his bed. was met at the door by a
woman whose sleeves were rolled up,
who wore an ample apron upon which
were various spots of -four and whose
face was not entirely free from similar
spots. 1t was bake day" but she did
not embarrsss me by any reference 70
the fact or any apology as 70 her appear
ance. She asked me- into the parlor and
after sending one of the children up
stairs to notify the father Of my pres
ence, re-entered the parlor and chatted
until her husband appeared about Tarl-
Gus topics in an entertaining, easy man
ner, quite as though she had been ex-
pecting and was all fixed up to receive
me. 1t was simply delightful and my
great grief is that | have no sufficient
excuse to make another early morning
call at the same home.-Detrolt Free

Ahoat in q "Cofin Ship"

u
Coffin ships? Yes, l know them, and
there are plenty of 'em about Still-though,
mind you, they are nothing to what they
used to be- You should have seen the
ships they used to have in the old Quebec
trade They actually passed chain cables
around them to hold them together. Yes,
it's fact. They were tied together with
chain cables, shored up and wedges driven
in to prevent 'em going to pieces. re-
member sailing in one. She had been q
steamer thirty-nine years and then con-
verted to a sailing ship; but where the
boilers and other fxings had been you
could take shovel and dig out the rotten
wood by the foot Dry rot? Why, we were
getting the boats fixed up and bread bags
waterproofed all ready for laundering
weeks before we started. The crew walked
out of her, and the captain says to me, Il
suppose you'll go too" l said, mo; if you
are going to stop 1 shall" So we got some
more men and Sailed.
A few days later it came on to blow and
she broke in half She didn't 60 to pieces,
but lay all bumped up in the middle, and
the sea took possession of her. We threw
the deckload-deals they were-overboard,
and got the masts out of her, and there
she Law full of water. She didn't sink,
being a wooden ship, but her stern came
off and the deals were popping out of her.
We stopped like that ten days; couldn't
enter the cabins, and then it came on to
blow tremendous, SO we got the loneboat
ready for a start. The four men got in
her and we were just going to follow, when
one of 'em pulls out an ak that was in the
boats bowE and cuts the painter, and away
they goes. Well, l don't think ever shall
go to heaven after the cursing l did then.
But they were all drowned and we were
saved-got taken off four days afterward.

Mushroom Spawn.

Mushrooms, although of spontaneous
growth, are raised from spawn. The best
spawn is made in England and is the
droppings of horses, cows and sheep, dried
and pressed into bricks. Artificial growers
take great care to have the soil changed in
the beds frequently, and they also keep
the heat of the beds at a certain temper
allure. Thermometers are stuck in the soil
at short distances apart and are consulted
every few hours, both night and day. This
carefulness results in producing good
mushrooms, but it is not necessary in the
production of ordinarily good ones.-New
York Telegram.

The Oldest Hat,

Mrs. Sarah Hampton, of Roswell, Ga,
has hat made of cows horn that has been
in the Hampton family for over 400 years.
The hat is about five inches long and three
wide at one end and two at the other. The
box is infinitely fastened together with
brass rivets. On the lid is, ''W. c. H.,
1882" cut with knife. In the bottom of
the box is "a piece of paper, but part of the
writing is so dim it cannot be read under a
glass. One can read three lines. 1t says
that this hat has been in the Hampton
family go years, 1895"
Master Comant Hampton now possesses
the old relic Although he is only seven
years old he prizes it very highly. The hat
was carried through the Revolutionary
war By one of the Hamptons, Master Co
mant's great OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

No Wonder Indians Are Dying Out.

The conversation had drifted to Indians,
and apropos of the topic lumberman in
the office remarked that at the camp on
Prairie river, from which he had just re-
turned, he had seen e goodly group OF
these noble aborigines camped near the
lumber shanties. "They came to look
after a horse" said he. Lost horse?"
''No, we lost one, got killed, and they
came down to cut him up" What foFs"
why, to eat him. They staid right By
the carcass and hung up and dried every
pound of meat On him. Queer how they
found it out. The horse hadn't been dead
twenty-four hours before the whole tribe
were after him; crows couldn't have done
better"
That's nothing" said an old logger
standing by. Zone winter six horses died
in our camp of epizootic, and III be hanged
if they didn't pick the bones of every one
of them clean. There is no trouble in &C.
counting for the rapid reduction of the In
dian population when you know what they
eat."-Minneapolis Lumberman.

Left Handed People in Prehistoric Times.

Professor Mortillet. from observations
upon flint scrapers found in various parts
of France. has been led 70 believe that the
proportion of left handed persons was much
greater in prehistoric times than at pres
sent in the same locality. Out of 354 neo-
Hthic scrapers which he examined he de-
termiues that los were used by the right
hand and 1871 by the left: the remaining
81 were not marked SO clearly that il could
be determined by which hand they were
used. or they may have been used by either
indifTerently. -Philadelphia Ledger.
