Snakes and Rabbits in Australia

A good deal of attention has been be- slowed upon the subject of rabbit de- struction, and some astounding pro- posals and suggestions have been re- ceived from various parts of the world. The last suggestion, which is from south Australia, is that a number of carpet snakes should be let loose among the rabbits, which would, it is asserted, be speedily eaten up by the reptiles. The correspondent also furnishes some re- markable data regarding the feeding capacity of carpet snakes. When from five to six feet long they are, he says, able to eat two or three rabbits at a meal; but when they are fifteen or six teen feet long they are able to eat six rabbits.
 Anticipating inquiry as to what would happen if the snakes became more numerous than rabbits, he proposes that carpet snakes of one kind only should be used, and after eating all the rabbits the snakes would then proceed to eat each other.-London Public Opinion.

To Him That unih.

There is nothing dearer to the heart of the average boy than to be the proud possessor of a goat broken to harness. To own such steed makes the boy the leader of the neighborhood, and by the judicious giving of rides the owner ac- quires a pull" which lasts usually as long as the goat himself can pull.
 Fully aware of this, the publisher of a popular youths magazine recently off, fered as prizes for the boys securing certain number of new subscribers in a given time a handsome Angorq goat, harness and gig.
 This set the young readers of the paper a-hustling, and when the time for re- ceiving the subscriptions expired it was found that every one of the competitors wanted a goat
 As the publishers had only ten goats, of course every lad couldn't get one, Each of the ten leaders in the contest re- ceived his goat aud outfit, and to each of the disappointed contestants n kind let ter was sent explaining the case, etc.
 One of the lucky ten was western lad. His goat was promptly boxed up end forwarded to it's destination. The lad received the box, and on opening it great was his astonishment when he saw not only the auxiously expected goat, but in addition four goatlets, SO to speak, born in transitu.-Boston Herald,

PrnNInInnn for a Rienn.

The French government. in conjunc- tion with the Paris municipality. are considering n scheme for the erection of stores for preserving supplies of frozen meat. to be used in case of another siege Paris in time of war needs eco tons of meat day. At this rate all the aocks of sheep and herds of oxen that could be brought together at the last moment would last but few weeks and it might be impossible to feed them.
 The stores about to be erected will contain evep in time of peace large sup plies of meat and immediately upon a declaration of war will receive 10000 tons of beef and mutton. This repre- sents fifty days full rations, or 100 days half rations. The forts around Paris have sufficient food to last three years No war is likely to last this length of time. Echo.

An Aneodote of the Emperor William.

An Anccdote or the Emperor William.
 The forces behind William II are such as have never been cultivated in Russia, whose czar lives in hourly dread of as- sassinatiou, and whose people are so many items of an official budget, so many units in military report. The German emperor walks about the streets of his town as fearlessly and naturally as any other man, although the life of his grandfather was twice attempted One day. in November of 1891. lac was walking with a guest through the narrow and crowded thoroughfare of a city not far from Berlin. The side- walks were narrow, and as the emperor is a fast walker, he frequently had to step out into the street 10 pass other po- destrians, and especially clusters of peo- pie who stopped for n chat.
 His companion, who had been in Rus sia, was struck by the democratic man. ner in which the German emperor rubbed in and out among porters, tishwives, peasants and the rest of the moving crowd. chatting the while and acting as though this was his usual manner of getting about. He was struck still more by the tact that no precautions against possible murderous fanatic appeared to have been taken and ventured to speak of this. The emperor laughed heartily. and said, "Oh, if had to stop to think of such things l should never get through with my days work."- Poultney Bigelow in Century.

Baseball A Cure for Lunacy.

The superintendent of the New York State Lunatic asylum has discovered novel cure for lunacy. It is nothing more nor less than frequent doses of the national gauie. Says he: Il believe that baseball is a homeopathic cure for luna- cy. It is kind of craze in itself, and it gives the lunatics a new kind of crazi- ness to relieve them of the malady which aff1icts their minds. l have noted our most melancholy patients watching base ball play, laughing heartily and even immoderately at the mistakes of the playing and the funny incidents of the game. The free air which they breathe while sitting around the baseball field is beneficial to most of them, and cul- tivate baseball both because I like it myself and because believe it is bene- hcinl to ths asylum patients. ."--Chicago NSaa.

Steel Ienceposts.

Steel is now being used in the manu- facture of fenceposts. This is m inno- vation on the old cedar method and promises to meet with extended use One of the latest devices in this direc- ton consists of a thin plate of steel made in conical shape, being smaller at the top than at the bottom and encircled with malleable iron barbs, prepared for attaching wire or other descriptions of fencing, is seven inches wide and seven feet long, with an open slot extending the entire length. The top is held in place by an ornamental cap.
 The post is designed to be driven into the ground, thus obviating the necessity of digging holes For this purpose n driving machine has been designed, which is 80 arranged that it can be set at any angle, the post being always in d vertical position when driven into the ground. One man and horse are re- quired to operate machine, which can do the work of ten men in the same given time. These posts, before being used, are treated to n bath in n solution heated by electricity and n coating put on them to prevent the action of either salt or alkalies. The cost of maintenance is small and protection from hrs is Assursd.---Amsriokn MkuufasfaFax

 And what Is mine shall know my face. Asleep, awake, by night or day, The friends seek are seeking me; No wind can drive my bark astray, Nor change the tide of destiny. What matter if I stand aloneY
 1 wait with joy the coming years; My heart shall reap where 1t has sown, And garner up its fruit of tears. The waters know their own, and draw The brook that springs in yonder

 So flows the good with equal law Unto the soul of pure delights Ton foweret nodding in the wind Is ready plighted to the bee; And, maiden, why that look unkind2 For lol thy lover seeketh thee.

splinter in diligent use as an excava.
tor. If we go farther back toward
the dining table, we shall find that
the disgusting habit grows even more
pronounced, and that the table itself
is often a witness of the indicate
proceeding. 1t is a matter of con-
graduation, therefore, that a better
habit is asserting itself, in witness of
which the following extract from q
hotel journal may be quoted. "The
practice of serving toothpicks, as a
course, is no longer observed in polite
society. Neither are they used as a
sideboard decoration and a center
piece for the table. Neither are they
served along with after-dinner coffee,
and it is not polite to pick the
teeth at table; it is rather the act of a
s%cavenger, even if the face and mouth
are covered by a napkin, as some
people seem to think is correct.
Really refined people suffer pain
rather than pick their teeth at the
table. A person might as we'll brush
the teeth at a meal, and it would be
quite as agreeable a diversion. The
toothpick is properly an article OF
toilet and for the bathroom and the
dressing-room, and not forthe dining
room. People do not clean their
nails at the table, which would be far
more preferable than the opening of
%cavernous. mouths. The time has
really come when something should
be said about this disgusting tooth
pick fad. Better go to the dentist
and have the holes plugged up with
gold and cement, instead of prying
meat out with a toothpick. The
whole thing is pandering to a low
taste instead OF a high one, and it is
high time that it ceased to be a
custom, OF to be tolerated as such."-

To stop a Runaway Horse,

Most persons when trying to stop a
runaway horse merely add othe pan
ic which has caused the beast to take
to her heels. Don't stand in the mid.
die of the road and throw up your
hands and shout. No one ever saw a
runaway stopped by such tactics.
Don't stand on the side and yell t.
the horse to stop. That will merely
cause him to be worse frightened than
before. As you see the horse coming,
start to run as fast as you can in the
same direction the horse is taking;
when he catches up with you and be.
fore he passes-horses don't go with
the rapidity of a bullet from q gun
even when running away-jump fol
the bridal rein and hold to it. The
check thus given by the pull on the
bit.will almost always stop a run
away. If you are on horse back you
can do this with ease and with very
little danger, for in this instance, youl
horse is running and you have al
your strength to give to the runaway
