Horses Can n

A Russian doctor has been expert.
menting to find how far somc domestic
animals can count. The intelligence Of
tho horse, as shown In mathematics,
seems to surpass that Of tho cut or the
dog.
Tho doctor found O horse which was
able to count tho mile posts along the
way. It Ind been trained by its master
to stop for feed whenever they had GOV.
cred a5 versts. One day they tried the
horse wei o road where three false mile
posts had been put in between the real
ones, and, sure enough, the horse, de-
oeived by this trick, stopped for his oats
nj the end Of 22 versts, instead Of going
the usual rs.
Tho same horse was accustomed K
being fed every day Mt tho stroke o.
noon. Tho doctor observed that when
ever tho clock struck the horse woulf
stop and prick up his ears as II count
ing. II no heard 10 strokes, no wOult
trot of contentedly to DO fed, but II /
were fewer than IL he would resigned,
go on working. Tho experiment wa
made Of striking IL strokes Mt tho wronl
time, whereupon the horse started 70
his oats In spite Of tho fact that no ha,
been fed only IN hour before. st. Loui

Modern Woman as q Candy Buyer.

The powerful social movement in the

are ''rising in their might and view.
ing with ALARM" and all that such
things imply. They are beginning to
assert their rights. I saw one Of them

tho veteran officers want of GOODNESS.

A Books Quaint Title,

A year or two ago there first appeared
in Germany q little book entitled DART
die Frau Denkcn?" ("Ought Woman BE
Allowed to Think?''). 1t went through
a number Of editions in a short time, a
rare thing to happen in the fatherland,
at least in this department Of literature.
Though small and without any new
ideas or issues, it seemed to have had a
decided effect in winning favor for the
woman rights movement, ut present oc-
cupying the best minds Of a nation as
conservative as the German. The writer,
a lady, attempts to show that woman Is
not created for man, but for her calling,
and to work out her own destiny on
equal terms with man. Hence all educa-
tional apparatus and institutions ought
to BIO opened to hen. -Baltimore Sun.

Care Of Curtains and Portieres.

When any cleaning or sweeping is in
progress, the heavy curtains and por-
there's should BIO removed and after being
thoroughly brushed and shaken should
be allowed to hang in the air until the
rooms arc cleaned and ready for their
return. Heavy hangings will absorb the
odor from cigar smoke or from any food
which may be cooking, and the greatest
care should therefore be taken that they
be kept well aired. The doorway cur.
tains may be SO easily removed and
placed in position again hat there
should be no excuse for any unpleasant
odor being attached to them. james

"Perhaps one of the most peculiarly
prepared luncheons ever laid before

when we were showed up in the theater
Of q small western town." said q theat.
rical man to a reporter. Upon this
night, in the brief interval after the
people left the theater, while we were
dressing to go to our hotel, q terrific
snowstorm, such as you can only find
in the west, came up. The snow drifted
against our doors and all about the
streets, 30 that we had to remain all
night in the theater. Of course we got
hungry, as actors will sometimes do,
and we began O search for something
eatAble.
I'VE prowled around the property

gust when one Of the company struck o
box Of beans, which were used to imi.
tate the sound Of rain. BY shaking the
box q stage rainstorm could be produced.
We took this rain, rs the profession is

thunder was O sheet Of tin OF iron

were at O loss for means for producing
