A STEERS REVENGE.
Getting Help, 1t Proceeded to Punish a
Cow Which Had Hurt 1t.

Getting Help, 1t Proceeded to Punish a
Cow Which Had Hurt 1t.
A COW and d steer-the latter 2 to 3
years 0ld-were the only occupants, of
the baTnyard where an occurrence de-
scribed by the Popular Science Monthly
took place. A batting of hay was put
out to them, the cow taking possession.
The steer wished to share it, but the
COW like some higher animals, was
selfish, and was bent on taking the
whole of it, and as often as he would
maneuver around from side to side to
get bite she would drive him off at the
point Of her horns. The steer was 50
persistent that at last the old cows
patience gave way, and, making a de-
ternined and Vicious charge on him,
punished him severely, though he was
her own offspring. The steer felt badly
hurt, not only in body but evidently in
luind as well, and Immediately started
out of the yard and off down the Lane
toward the pasture, where were the rest
of the stock, believing vengeance at
every step in a language which was IN
mistakable to the bystander and which
the mother well understood, as she
ceased eating and listened intently to
the threatening Of what was to come.
When these died away in the distance
she resumed her ration, but with evil
dent apprehension. In due time the
steer was seen returning, bringing with
him a companion larger and stronger
than himself. AS they approached the
of rage and revenge could be
again heard, which grew louder as they
came nearer. The cow took in the stu
alton at once and was now terror
stricken. As her assailants rushed into
the yard she lodged them and rushed
out at ife-and-death speed and away
toward the rest Of the stock in the
field, with her pursuers close in her
tracks

The end cars of the sections will SUD

on a pivot. The other cars will ma
empty, and the logs vii extend over
them above the cap floors. This ar
rangement is necessary, owing to the
curves in the road. When the train Is

section, will, of course, not be in the
same straight line, and if the logs were

impossible to round the curve without
breaking either the logs or the cars.
To overcome this difficulty the move
able blocks on the two end cars are
brought into play, and while the empty
cars curve around bend in the track
the pivots are also turned, permitting
the logs to always retain the same re-
lative position with respect to each
other. On sharp the middle of the load

center Of the section, and will lie paral-
lei to a tangent drawn at the outer edge
Of the curve. When the curve is passed
the pivots again throw the logs to their
original position.

Money Continues Cheap.

LONDON, Jan. THE low value OF
money, which was the distinguishing
characteristic of the year, was con-
tinued to the end. After Wednesday
of last week discount rates advance
4 to per cent, but there was moth
ing like the stringency usual at the
end of the year, and the distri button
of consols dividends probably will IN
crease the abundance of money. Ap-
paren ~ during the last week, less APP
prehension was felt here with regard
to the situation in America. The sill
yer market became more composed and
had the stimulus of demand for re-
mittonce for the East. Business was
mostly spot, pending the reassembling
of the Herschel Committee, the few
forward transactions being at 4 under
re spot quotation

WASHINGTON Jan. 2.-Dr. johnson
said yesterday: MIR Blaine is a little
better" When asked if Mr.. Blaine
sat up any yesterday DR.. johnson re.
piled in the negative.
1t is now fourteen days since Mr..
Blaine suffered the relapse which many
os his intimate friends feared would
speedily prove fatal. That he has
lived the old year out and witnessed
the coming of another year is a sur.
prise to many who have means OF
knowing just how i'll Mr.. Blaine has
been and who also know how sick he
is to-day.
While there are rumors from time to
time that Mr.. Blaine is to re removed
to some warmer climate, no prepare,
tions have thus far been made by the
family for such a journey. The fact
that Mr.. Blaine is not able to sit ur
seems to be taken as evidence that the
period of his removal is very remote
at least. His physicians will not dis
cuss the question with any but mem
bers of Mr.. Blaine's family.
1t Is understood that personally Mr.
Blaine prefers to remain in Washing
ton pending the termination of his ill
ness. He is fully aware that unless
lis physician accompanied him on his
Journey and remained with him he
would be running a great risk. This
fact and another, that he could not
find elsewhere the comforts Of his own
home, make Mr.. Blaine, it is said, very
much averse to being removed.

MAY HAVE EXISTED.
Why Not, when So Many Ancient Mon
sters Are known to Science?

Why Not. when So Many Ancient Mon--
srers Are known to Science:
Science has not as yet given assent to.
any theory that there once existed q
race of giants on this earth Even the
once despiSed dragon and the scorned
sea-serpent have found a warmer niche
in the scientific heart than Cog and
Magog."
Scientific agnosticism has no credenee
for stirring stories Of giants, like those
Of Gaelic and Teutonic folk lore, SAYS
the Boston Advertiser. Yet it is quite
possible that science is wrong and tradi-
ton Is right. 1t can be taken as a fact
that tradition often is accepted as right
when new discoveries bring to light the
long hidden relics Of an obscure past.
Priam, AgamemnOn and other figures
Of tradition have been accepted as re-
alities by modern history as the result
Of the discoveries Of the century In the
main tradition Is proving to be much
more reliable than it once seemed. Even
on the giant question some modern
scientists may be said to be ION the
fence" as consequence of the discover
les of late years. To the unscientific,
however, there appears to be good rea-
son for believing In race Of giants as
a matter Of common sense.
When the world was first covered
with animals those creatures were Of
great size. 1t Is generally believed that
the early man was much longer-ived
than his descendants, and in the steady
progress Of growth it seems strange, In
deed, If he did not attain greatr size in
his many years. More than this, how
ever, the prehistoric creatures are
known to have been fwonderous pro-
portions. The hypsiprymus was some
thirty feet long and the modern kan
CARGO would seem a dwarf beside him.
The moSasaurI1s was eighty feet long,
while his modern descendants vary in
size from the alligator to the crocodile.
rarely, if ever, twenty feet long The
larlaps, jumping lizard, stood twenty
five feet high, dwarfing the lizards Of
the present day into insignifcance.
In view OF these facts is it unreasOn-
able to conjecture that amid that world
"a hAOiA1o'CA C1St1eu1eo ulouSUeI ueu dlSo
stalked? Science, because It has not
yet found as many skeletons Of giant
men as of giant lizards, gives no support
to the traditions which uphold the exist
ence os such a race Of human beings:
but as from time immemorial mankind
has kept its dead In inaccessible places,
the failures as yet to discover NAM
moth men, in view also of the fact that
wild animals were far more plentiful
than prehistoric men, and that even Of
the primeval animals but few remains
have been discovered, it is more than
unwise to conclude that in this matter
tradition is wholly at fault.

4 SKETCH FROM LIFE.
The Dear Little Fellow Never Opened His


HE Dear Little Fellow Never Opened His
Mouth.
Il would like to leave little Willie
with you to-day" she said, as she de-
posted her darling with the neighbor,
and trotted away to the dry goods
stores, according to the New York Com-
mercial-Advertiser.
Willie hadn't been there more than
ten minutes when he said:
Pa and ma had fight last night"
why, Willie" said the neighbours
wife, prickling up her ears, you really
do not say so, do your"
Just bet do; and say, pa broke a lot

Il asked ma about it; do you know
what she said?'
What did she say?"
:She said pa was as full as a goat |
wonder what that means, anyway"
'1-don't know; here is lump of
sugar for darling Willie boy"
Mas don't give me sugar. And, say.
do you have fights with your pa about

Willie! Willie!'
And when your pa comes home and
says he is tired, what do you doY
What question"
well, ma takes him by the hair and
shakes him all over. She says his
breath smells a mile. l wonder what
that means?"
Il really don't know; you must not
ask me-
And pa gave me 10 cents the other
day to watch the butchers boy; and he
told me to keep my eye on him and see
how long ma leaned over the gate talk
ing with him.
You darling child! You are so good.
Here; here is another lump of sugar"
Yes, and say, ma bought some red
stuff the other day for 20 cents, and she
put it in pot, and turned her old brown
dress a new color. 1t was so funny.
It's the same dress ma tells people she
bought at the sale, but she-she-told
me not-not to tell"
There, there" crowed the neighbor's
wife gleefully running for the jam
closet; Il will give you some nice jam
right away"
Just then there was Z loud rapping ut
the door.
Willie's ma had returned from her
trip. 1t was raining, she said, and she
concluded to defer the trip until some
other day.
"Oh, Mrs. de Mouse" began the
neighbours wife, did you enjoy your
trip? How sorry 1 am that it should
rain and spoil all your plansr'
Then the neighbours wife drew chair
and assisted Mrs. de Mouse off with her
wraps, in that charming way 50 charac-
teristic Of woman, lovely woman.
What a lovely new dress you have
Mrs. de Mouse" chirruped the neigh
boris wife, sweetly, land and do you
know, your darling Willie ah-he is a
jewel of a child"
What has he been doing now!' said
the fond mother, beamingly.
He is SO bashful and shy; why, l
tried my best, but the dear little fellow
never opened his mouth while you were
gonew
Then the cuckoo clock crowed three
times, and the neighbor's wife offered
Mrs. de Mouse cup Of tea.

WINTER DAIRYINC.
Prices of Butter Indicate That 1t Will be
Profitable.

Prices of Butter Indicate That 1t VIII be
Profitable.
The present high price Of butter af-
fords unusual inducements to winter
da1rying In fact, we know of no more
profitable use to which the present corn
crop can be put than the production OF
first-class butter at present prices, rang
ing on farm from twenty to thirty
cents per pound, according to the loca-
ton and quality of the butter A pro-
fitable winter dairy, however, cannot be
secured in a day. 70 make winter
dairying profitable, COWS should come
in in September or October. Having
recruited on grass, with an abundance
Of fall pasture, the cow is ready to do
her best at the period when butter sells
at the highest price.
The fall calf has at least as many ad-
vantages as the spring. The spring
calf does finely until fly time, but has to
be maintained during the winter largely
on grain feed. The winter calf in the
very nature of things will have shelter
and need not be exposed to degree OF
cold that will be as injurious to it as the
fly time is to the spring calf during the
summer months When spring comes
if the winter calf has geen properly
cared for, it has chance of a full sum-
mers use Of grass SO that it is doubt
full whether a September calf at year
old has cost as much as the calf that
comes in the spring
To make winter dairying successful
the cow must have warmth, such as
can only be furnished by good shedding
and bedding. It is useless to talk of
making profit on winter dairying it,
cold stables. When every energy of the
body is employed to preserve life by srls-
tanning animal heat, it is folly to look
for profitable supply of milk. Farm
ers, therefore, who wish to engage In
winter dairying, will need to provide for
COWS fresh in the fall, and then give
in addition, food adapted to produce
in addition, fod adapted to produce q
flow Of milk Without this, the expert
ment in winter dairyiLs will terminate
and the farmer will be
with the business.
