A Dog and His Money.

I know a fox terrier which has thor.
oughly learned the value Of money.
When he gets cent he is of with It
to buy a bun at the bakers shop; and
should no one be there, he rattles his
money down on the counter. He sits
quietly in the shop and eats his bunt
but orce he got cross because the ba-
ker's lad gave him small bun for k1a
penny instead Of large one.
When the time comes for the boys 70
play ct pitch and toss in the streets,
if they are using coppers in the game,
he watches his opportunity and makes
off with q penny, so that his young
mistress has more than once been fol-
lowed by boys who half whimperiugly
said:
please, miss, your dogs took my
money and bought him bun"
In such cases she used to make good
the loss, but now she begins to fear the
boys tempt him with small pieces Of
money-cents-and declare that he
has taken two-cent pieces, and she de-
clines to meet such suspicious claims,
that she may teach them to be at once
more careful, more truthful and more
honest, and not to prey on and attempt
to make profit out Of the dogs vices
and clever tricks.

Queer Things About Frogs.

A remarkable thing about these
creatures is that the larger part of the
breathing is done through the skin. In
fact, it is said that this supply OF air is
necessary addition to that taken in
by ordinary breathing, as the latter
does not supply sufficient air to sup
port life in frog.
Another peculiar thing about the
skin of the frog is its powerful absorp-
kion of water. This is due, OF course,
to the numberless minute pores with
which their skin is provided. 1t has
been proved that frog can thus soak
up half its weight OF water in an hour.
The skin of the stomach is most active
in this way, and, at the same time, is
most often in contact with moisture,
such as mud, dewy grass, wet ground,
ar.l leaves afford. As the skin per-
spires quite asfreely as it absorbs, it is
easily seen why contact with moisture
is so necessary. Besides the loss from
evaporation, there is the stopping Of
skin-breathing also, because the skin
has to be kept moist and soft, to ab-
sorb fresh air and give off used air
from the system. The soaking of
water IS what gives the frogs skin such
a cold, clanmy, and uncany feeling
when handled. And it explains
strange thing. Though a bullfrog
syere poked with q red-hot iron, it
would not feel it enough to move out
of it's tracks for the moisture Of the
skin forms kind Of film Of vapor be-
tween it and the iron, which takes
time to heat through; and so the frog
would not feel pain from the hest.
Yet, if hot water is droppedupon him,
he will instantly jump from pain, as
his heat at once strikes into the skin.
A frog has another safeguard against
trying up--thst is, kind OF interior
sack for storing water. Like the camel,
it thus keeps supply which carries it
over many dry place, when it would
otherwise lose ali its moisture and die.
The water is as pure and tasteless as
that Of any spring.
In Australia, it is said, one specia
# frog prepares for a drought in a
wonderful way. Sometimes the
traveller suffering from thirst will come
to bush, and, digging into the ground
foot or two, will find clay ball. He
cracks it open, and out jumps frog!
Stranger still, inside the ball is found
good drink Of pure water! And with
this the man quenches his thirst. ST
Nicholas.

about capture and q daring es-

VAS great sensation in newspaper
circles, and there wss good many
theories evolved to account for the eI-
t-aordinary behavior OF certain ab-
sentees. Bribery was freely limited,
hut there were those who knew that
something more than mere money had
prompted Bennett to throw up the big

Thievery as profession Is aceeS-
panied constantly by improvement in
methods and by new qualities Of ad'
dress, craft, alertneSs and daring. The
other day four or five persons drove up
in an express wagon in front Of one Of
the finest residences in Chicago sub
urb and backed their wagon to the curb.
They then entered the house and dis
mantled the parlor, taking valuable
paintings, bric-a-brac, ornaments.
vases, rugs and other movable articles,
which they loaded into the wagon and
then drove away. The family were at
dinner at the time, with the door be-
tween the dining room and the parlor
closed. Neighbors saw the wagon IN
front Of the house and the thieves load
Ing their plunder into 1t, but did not
suspect that daylight burglary was
being committed in their presence. The
robbers got completely away, leaving
no trace for successful pursuit

Man may be able to withstand the
charms Of woman. He may shut his
eyes to her beauty and turn deaf ear
to her brilliant talk. But when woman
and Fate advance upon him hand in
hand, as it were, it is time for him to
begin studying the marriage service.
Miss ANGEL Marston, Of New York, as
LII Illustration, had no chance Of becom-
Ing the wife Of Edward Tallman until
Fate took a hand IN the game. Mr..
Iallman did not even know her until
be caught her pony one day when it
tried to run away. Even then he gave
the matter no further thought, and
Fate had to try it all over again. On
the second trial the young lady sprain-
ed her ankle in front Of the young
mans home, and be again came to her
rescue. Then he capitulated and pro-
posed. Procrastination seemed to be
DANGEROUS. In an endeavor to bring
about the union Fate might make a
slip and kill the young lady or MAIN
her in some way. AS matter OF safety
hey were married.

HOmicidal CrankS.

ghe recentshocking murder of Mayor
Harrison calls attention again to the
danger to which society is subjected
by the half-mad. The name which
science gives to their malady is para
noia persecutoria. It is not, however,
50 much real disease as it is an in
herent defect in the structure OF the
brain. This defect exists in many,
but it is overcome and controlled bT
education and training. In the homl-
cidal paranoiac natural defects and
natural bad propensities are increased
by bad habits Of life and thought. For
example, by the over-indulsence III
alcohol, tobacco and ezcitable har&n'
guing man who has simply exaggera-
ted political views becomes q political
criminal or murderer. The question
naturally arises whether the homicidal
paranoiac has come with US to stay
and to increase in numbers and &C.
tivity. Already it is necessary for
public men to exercise care IN admit
ting people to audience, and the life
of the American millionaire or higa
political functionary is, perhaps,
already quite as uneasy as that OF ths
Gar OF Russia.
We see no immediate prospect OF re
lief from this condition Of things. Ger
tainlv lynching will do no good,
though so strongly recommended by
many. Whether such people should
be hanged is question to be decided
in each individual case. In some IN
Stances it is surely necessary and help
full, even if from our standpoint II
seems cruel. But cranks and para
noiacs will not be suppressed by hang
ing, because they often love notorlety
more than they fear death, or are i'm
PEELED to their act by morbid instinct
which no prospect of future punish
ment can suppress. The paranolc IS
the result of bad breeding, and he will
flourish as long as neurotic people in
termarry and give birth to children
whose morbid tendencies are allowed
to develop. TO prevent the increase
of the paranoiacs We need good faith
.rs and mothers. Medical Record.

Ingenious Use Of Photography.

4uSSEkOOS CSO VI = AkoOSSSh "SAys
Before the days Of books, parchmenh
became so costly that econmical schol-
ars erased more or less perfectly what
had been written, and used them Sec
ond time. In this manner some highly
interesting and valuable manuscripts
have been lost to the world. But In
many cases the ancient characters ar
still family visible.
Twice-used parchments are callec
palimpsests, and many modern scholars
have strained their eyes in the effort to
lecipher the original writing.
Recently photography has been sue
cessfully applied in Germany for this
work. The color Of the faded ink Of
the older writing on palimpsest is vel
low. A photograph Of such a manu-
script was made through a yellow
screen. The result was negative on
which the old writing was barely dis.
cernible, while the later black writing
appeared distinctly as white letters.
Next an ordinary negative on bro
mide plate was made, and from
this was produced transparent posi-.
tive on which both writings appeared
dark and about equally distinct. Then
the transparency was superimposed oc
the first negative, so that the dark let.
ters of the writing covered the light let
ters, representing the same writing in
the negative. They were thus eliminat.
ed, being indistinguishably merged
with the general dark background pro-
duced by the combination of positive
and negative. But the earlier charac-
ters, since they were dark in both cases,
appeared in the combination intensely
black and distinct.

Perhaps, after all, the newspaper
Judgment as to the value Of a rich man S
estates may not be SO far out Of the
way, Notwithstanding the popular be-
lief that the newspapers are prone to
exaggerate in these matters. After
the death of Jay Gould the newspapers
kindly took q hand at the business Of
posting his books and striking bal
ance for the benefit Of their readers.
The result Of this arithmetic was the
concurrent journalistic opinion that Mr..
Gould had left about S72,O0O,000 and
some odd cents. Now it appears that
the newspapers did not place too large
q value on the estate, but according to
