Three Dairymaids From school.

With remarkable energy that seems all
her own the Countess of Aberdeen, who is
taking the keenest interest in the success of
the Irish section of the Columbian exhibi-
ton, has mapped out and arranged a
scheme to take three Munster school dairy
maids to Chicago to show their American
cousins one or two points in the art of but
ter making. A few weeks ago the countess
paid a visit to the school and selected the
three maidens whose duty it will be to rep
resent to the best Of their ability the staple
industry Of the south Of Ireland,

The sloths at the Geological gardens
are not quite so green as they were when
they first arrived. We do not refer to
their growing recognition of the fact
that nuts and buns are not suitable food
for an arboreal creature which subsists
upon leaves, but to a literal change of
color. 1t is most remarkable fact that
the sloth has in the wild state green hair,
which causes it to resemble, as it clings
to branch, an excreScence of that
branch covered with greenish gray IL
chens. In this way the sloth may perhaps
sometimes escape the keen eye of ja'
guar,
1t is still more remarkable that the
green color is not resident in the hair it.
self, but is due to the presence of guam
titles of minute green plants; and this
explains how it is that in captivity the
sloth changes color; the plants, deprived
Of the damp heat of their native forests
die, and are not replaced, so the peculiar
gray green which is so characteristic Of
the sloth is changed to brownish gray

No Wore Yarns About Indiana.

There is an advertising man in De-
troit, well known for his hustle, who has
pretty pair Of children that come hon
estly by desire to get all the fun OBJ
tainable as they pass through this pro-
bationary state. 1t is the habit Of the
father to regale the little ones with blood
curdling Indian stories, for which they
have the same Unsuitable desire as the
nickle novel fend for his choice style Of
literature. The moral Of each of these
wonderful relations by the head of tho
family is that the Indian. with all his
warwhooping and ghost dancing, cares
for good little children and scalps those
who are bad. This bothered Teddy, the
3-year-old, considerably, and he finally
determined on a council Of war with his
little sister. From all the evidence that
their wise little heads could get together,
they concluded that they were bad chill
dren and decided to anticipate any old
Indian that might come stalking around
after them by doing their own scalping.
Teddy promptly went at sisters golden
locks with the family shears, sacrificed
her bangs and waded ruthlessly through
her hair Then she reciprocated, and
nobody ever saw two such heads, SCARED
over with hicks, ridges, "X's" and tufts
that suggested the joint efforts Of Fee
ice barber and a modern knife thrower.
The mother simply sat down on the floor
and wept scalding tears. The father
kicked himself around the mile circuit,
and the precious little youngsters in
sisted that they were only playing In
dian. That household now draws the
line on Indian yarns - Detroit Free

uated in theology in 1865. DR.. Tucker
is native of Connecticut and was
born in Griswold July 49, 1899. He en-
tered Dartmouth at the age Of IS and
graduated with honors in the class Of 81.
Hespent two years teaching before he went
to Andover for his theological course,
after finishing which he was called to the
pastorate of Congregational church in
Manchester, N. H., where he remained
eight years. The Madison Square Presby-
terian church in New York city called him
to its pulpit in 1875, the year in which Dart
mouth made him D. D., and he resigned
to go to Andover in 1879 his place in the
pulpit being filed by DR.. Charles H. Park
hurst, whose crusade against social evils
recently gained such sensational notoriety.
Though Dartmouth college is the fourth
in age of the famous New England seats Of
learning, having been founded before all Of
them except Harvard, Yale and Brown, DIR.
Tucker is only ninth on the list of presi-
dents Of the institution. The college grew
out of a school founded at Lebanon, Conn,
in 1854 by Rev. DR.. Eleazer Wheelock for
the education of Indians 1t was called
Moore's Charity school while at Lebanon,
but when it moved to Hanover, n H., in
1869, to be nearer the Indians, Of whom few
remained in Connecticut then, the name
was changed to Dartmouth in honor OF
Lord Dartmouth, who had made liberal
contributions for its support.
In 1915 the New Hampshire legislature,
claiming control of the institution, changed
the name to Dartmouth university and
enlarged the board of trustees. The old
board contested the legality of this action
in the courts, carrying the case up to the
United States supreme court on appeal
and finally getting decision in their favor
by Chief Justice Marshall. Daniel Web
ster made the argument for the trustees
He and Rufus Choate are probably the
most famous Of the 5000 graduates of the
college, though the roll contains the names

THE OLD sMIrAY,

Long ago, when life WIS new,
In the old, delightful days,
We would wander two and two
Where the amithys fitting blazA
Backed by shadows Of the night,
Used to tighten up the hills,
Bockon us with fingers bright.
Twas u cure for childish ills
For the door was ever wido,
There was freedom everywhere
Near the forge and close beside
The old anvil, always there
Could be found the mighty man
With the sweat upon his brow.
Giant of all mighty clan-
Long gone, not forgotten now.
All, lie told us fairy lore
While he pumped his bellows grim,
For we loved the mystic store
. pentup In the Bmithy dim.
But the sturdy smith Is dead,
And the smlthy 3 in decay;
And the ivies climb instead
Der the bellows torn and gray.
All the ghosts Of long ago
Only como to spell the night,
Where the smith we used to know
On tho anvil used to smlte
With betlmes lighter stroke,
When he'd ease his toll to toll
In his way fact or joke
Which h0 told, oh, mel 30 well.

The Invention of German Tailor to Pro-
tect Soldiers.

tect Soldiers.
Projectile makers in recent years have
expended much money, time and ingenuity
in increasing the efficiency Of the various
missiles that come within scope of their
endeavors, and they have undoubtedly
achieved some wonderful results. But of
what use is 1t allr No sooner is the pro-
jectile improved to the extent of demolish-
ing the likeliest object Of its attack than
some counter improvement is made to de
feat the improved projectile. Armor plate
is made too strong to be penetrated by
missiles of the greatest known penetration,
and then missiles are made to penetrate the
armor, and stronger armor has to be made.
So the inventors in the two lines keep play
ing seesaw with one another, now one up
and now the other, until it seems as il their
rival efforts must produce about the same
result as If neither had ever begun, and as
il the best way to end it all was to mutually
agree to do nothing.

est Green, Is endea voring to solve
Mr. MADDOX attended the recent
Glasgow fair. and when he got ready
to return home late in the afternoon
he found that his horse, a black
mare he had ridden to Glasgow, had
slipped her bride, and, as he sup
posed, had returned home.
The animal was not there, how
ever, when Mr.. Maddox reached
home, nor has she since been found
anywhere in the neighborhood, al
though diligent search has been
made for her.
A few days ago Mr.. Maddox learn
ed that Will Bently, a young man
also residing near Forest Green, had
lost bride from of his horse, at

The surposition now is that the

the latter ridden of by some felon-
ious appropriation OF horse flesh.
So far Mr.. Maddox has obtained
no clue to the whereabouts OF his
