The RhinOserOs
From the St. Louis Republic .

From the St. Louis Republic.
The rhinosceros is a beast of legen-
dairy and mythical associations as
we'll as of stern reality. In the
mythology of the old world be fig,
ures very conspicuously being wor-
shipped as a god by the early Javun-
ese tribes and lauded as the builder
Of the earth and heavens by several
East African peoples. The old Jew
ish Talmud declares that his skin is
folded as a result of having been 'ex-
posed forty days and forty nights in
the waters of the flood. The wa
ters of the great deluge were hot ac-
cording to Tabari, where we read:
after that Noah sent forth the
dove" The dove departed and with
out tarrying put h"r feet in the was
ter. The waters of the flood were
hot, and they scalded and picked the
legs of the dove. 1t was hot and
briny, and feathers would not grow
on her legs any more, and the skin
scaled of. Now, doves which have
red and featherless legs are OF the
sort that Noah sent forth.
This is only cited for authority to
prove why the skin of the rhinosce-
ros lays in folds and ridges. Ger
tainly if the waters were hot enough
to pickle and scald a doves legs at
the moment of contact, they would
make the skin of rhinosceros too
large for him in the course of 40 days.
But, you Say, why was he expos
ed in the waters of the great deluge
while all the other beasts were safely
housed in the ark" Simply because
he was too large to be put aboard
the great lifeship. The bulk of the
old rabbinic writers agree that the
foated along with the
ark, but they disagree as to how the
foatins operation was performed.

Comfy Fairs.

There are in Pennsylvania eighty
nine county or local agricultural So
cieties, of which eighty one hold reg
ular fairs for the exhibition of agri-
cultural products and live stock, and
eight no fairs, but instead regular
monthly or quarterly meetings for
the discussion of topics relating to
farming and stock-breeding. OF the
number fifty-six own the ground up
on which the fairs were held and
twenty-five lease their exhibition
grounds. The value of the real
estate thus owned for exhibition pur-
poses is S675,00O, the amount annual
ly expended in premiums is S55, 900,
the total cost of autumn fairs $3.50
900, and the total annual attendance
at all fairs is estimated at i15, 900.

The extensive patronage and the

Forty Dollars Saved the Bank

From the Kansas City Journal.
Old timers tell the story of how I.
j. Kelley, a contractor Of this CITY,
and now manager Of the horse mark
ct in Grand avenue, between Fifth
st and Missouri Av., by a very clever
ruse stopped run on a bank and
prevented its going TO the wall, way
back in 1871. At that time the Kan
sas City Association, now the Nation,
a Bank Of Commerce, was located at
the southwest corner of Fourth and
Delaware streets. Mr. Kelley was
then secretary and cashier of the Cor
Tigan street railway company, and
the company's account was kept at
this bank
The much daspised penny was not
III general use here as now. People
We're ashamed to pay for any article
IN pennies, except, perhaps, postage
stamps and the old fashioned fare
box in the cars became a dumping
ground for them. From 33 to So in
pennies would be- found in the boxes
by Mr.. he ley every day. He usual
ly dumped them i'll sacks aud stored
them away IN the company's vault.
During the crisis of 1871 the peo-
pie became very much excited, and
hocked to the banks in droves to
withdraw their deposits. Runs were
made on nearly all the banks in the
city, and several were forced to sus-
pend. Ole day a run was made up-
on the Kansas City Savings bank,
and the people were lined up waiting
their turns to reach the tellers. who
were paying out money by the bask
ettul, when happy thought struck
Mr.. Kelley. He went go the police
station, secured three policemen to
guard his treasure, loaded eirht
sacks Of coppers on a wheel-barrow
and took them down to the bank.
The sacks had originally contained
gold and were Labelled on the out
side $4,000 in great black letters.
Arriving at the bank one old col
ored woman, who had come to with
draw her small savings, called out:
why, Mistah Kelley, wha' TO yo'
put all that money in here, when
We Sc a drawn our money out?"
Kelly replied: That's all right.
This bank ism gong to bust. can
put more money in here in one day
Their all you people can draw out in
SIX months, as he trudged into the
bank with the last sack.
This display of confidence on the
part of the street railway company
had a quietmg affect upon the crowd,
and they rapidly dwindIed away.
The sacks contained just S40-but
it saved the bank.

Ailments of Children.

Acute and chronic infiammations of the
stomach are very common among children
especially between and II years of age
These attacks are sometimes induced by
exposure To cold, bu. oftener by the eating
of improper food. Two kinds of food espe-
cially lead to such disorders-irritating
food and easily fermentable food.
The first is a food which is not easily
digested, ana hence, by its continued pres
ence, acts rs an irritant. Easily fe :ment-
able cod il that which is acted upon
