Women may lack the ability to keep q
secret, but they certainly do not lack
pluck, determination and ambition when
they enter the athletic lists to show man
what they can do. They are wisdom it

attempt to outshine man-only TO meet

thing very we'll and then fall back upon
the qualifying phrase for a woman"
This statement. however, is hardly
true of Miss Winifred Lealeof the island
of Guernsey. who one day shouldered
her rife. marched to Bisley common
England's new Wimbledon-and COM
peted at the rifle butts with the best
marksmen among the citizen soldiers of
England, Canada and Australia. When
her turn came to shoot, she sat down
tailor fashion. put the rifle to her shout

although it was her first or sighting
shot" she put a bullet in the very center
OF the bullseye 200 yards distant. She
shot with the regulation Martini-H Henry
rife. was not favored in the least, and
the emphat.c 80 pound kick of the
weapon did rot seem to annoy her I'M
non than the kick of an ablebodied fly.
AT 200 yart.s Miss Leale scored % out
OF possible ID. and at 500 yards she hit
the bullseye 5 times ont of a possible z.
OF all the expert rifiemen present very
few equaled her record. Miss Leale's
father was surgeon major of the Chan
mel islands militia, and when she dis
played such experiences she had only been
shooting under his direction for 1S
months.
On this side of the water Mrs. Frank
Class and Miss Annie Oakley are two of
the best markswomen. Mrs. Glass, who
lives in Jersey City. has frequently killed
10 out of 10 birds ON the wing with her
u pound shotgun, and such scores as II
out of 90 and % out of 25 bluerocks
show that she is sure death to almost
amy bird that gets up in front of her
breechloader. Mrs. Glass has only been
shooting two years, but she has had the
training of Frank Glass, the well known
marksman, who is her husband.
Annie Oakley is an Ohio girl, 81 years
old When she was only 10 years of
age, she was SO fond of shooting that she
would run away with her brothers mus
ket and practice in the woods. She has
broken 984 out OF 1000 glass balls and
holds the worlds record for this num-
Der. She has also broken 4,772 ont of
5000 in nine hours-a most remarkable
feat. She breaks glass balls in the air
about as easily with the rife as she does
with the shotgun and has a record Of
killing 943 out of 1000 with a 90 caliber
rifle. Sitting Bull was so pleased with
her shooting about 10 years ago that he

Something About Christmas cele-
bration in That State.
Sewer Station, in the north Caro-
lima mountains, knew nothing of the
high significance which modern
thought attaches to the great festi-
val of the Christmas year. 1t was the
day, however, on which Colonel
Royal sent, before breakfast, a bum
per of foaming egg-noe to every white
man and womanin the clarin.' Every
negro who asked for it had "a
warmin" of whisky at the colonel's
expense. It was the day, too, on
which Squire Barr gave his annual
tremendous dinner of turkey and
chicken pie, at which the six
families of the village all sat
down together. Mrs. Missoury Barr,
also, made a practice of sending
dishes of roast pork and hominy,
or 'possum stewed in rice and molas-
SEES, or some such delicacy, to every
negro cabin. There was a general in
terchange of gifts; brierwood pipes, or
pinchbeck scarf.pins, or cakes OF soap
in the shape of dogs heads, all OF
which elegant triaes had been pur-
chasedfrom travelingpeddlers months
before, and stored away for the great
occasion. Nobody was forgotten,
from the squire to the least pickanin-
ny in the quarters.
There was q vague idea throughout
| the clarin' that the day was one in
which to be friendly and to give old
grudges the go-by; the Lord was sup
posed, for some reason, to be nearer
at hand on that day than usual,
though not so near as to make any
body uncomfortable
Father Rugeles, the jolly old Metho.
dist itinerant, was up in the noun
tains, and had sent word he was
coming down for his Christmas dinner.
He'll ask a blessin' on the meal,
| thank Heaven!" cried Mrs. Missoury,
with a devout sigh.
The squire hurried with the news to
the colonel.

triumphantly. "Fatber Ruggles IL be

Wind Music Produces Dimples.

Wind Music Produces Djmples,
An observant American has discov.
cred that performers on wind instru,
ments, generally develop dimples in
their cheeks, caused probably by the
frequent strain on the facial muscles
which r brought into play by the
act Of blowing. The c~larionet, the
flute, the cornet, the trombone and
the French horn are all said to be ex.
cellent factors in producing this little
i~ndentation so often vainly courted
by artificial means. Perhaps this
discovery ofcause and effect may lead
to its becoming fashionable for girls
to play on wind instruments.

Our Degenerate Little Toe.

The whole history Of the organism
bears testimony to the marvellous
persistence OF parts in spite OF con-
tumely and disuse. Take, for example,
the present position OF the little toein
man. We know not the condition of
this digit in historic man, and have
but little information as to it's state
among savage tribes at the present
day, but we know that in civilized
peoples, whose feet are from infancy
subjected to conditions of restraint, it
is an imperfect organ
'.ot every function shorn
Except to act as basis for a corn"
In one per cent of adults the second
and third joints have anchyIosed, in
three per cent the joint between them
is rudimentary, with scarcely a trace
of a cavity, in twenty per cent of feet
the organ has lost n or of its
normal complement OF muscles. But
though shorn of some OF it's elements,
and with others as mere shreds, the
toe persists, and he would be q bold
prophet who would venture to fore
cast how many generations of booted
ancestry would suffice to eliminate it
from the organization OF the normal
man.-Popular Science Monthly.
