Does Duck Make You sclfshg

"Talking of game" said diner at
an up town cafe, did you ever notice
that duck has weird effect on q
mans selfish instincts? A tender canvas
back, cooked to turn, will arouse pc
culiar gluttony in the average good fell
lows nature. I've watched this curious
development for years among my friends
and acquaintance. Just drop into a
club or swell restaurant about the time
the shooting season opens. IL you see a
fellow hiding over in corner, his eye
balls cleaning like cannibal's over u
young missionary on the tire-why, he's
got duck. Fellows of warm, social
qualities, addicted to table fellowship
and liberality, become possessed of a
solitaire gastronomic mania totally out
of their line when they strike duck.
They steal off like dog with fresh
bone, and you can almost hear growl
from the greedy beast if you go too close
TO that bird. Take that fellow 800 days
in the year and you'll find him angling
for some other good fellow to share u
dinner with him-says he hates to eat
alone. Now, l want to know why the
succulent duck should arouse this un-
canny instinct in social specimen Of
the man. Think it out if you can. -

Who Steals the BiblesY

Although nearly all the passenger
cars running out Of Chicago have little
overhead racks marked "Read and Re-
turn" few Of these racks contain BIZ
bles, as they used to- Tho explanation
Is that the Bibles disappeared SO system
atically that the American Bible society
discontinued furnishing them, believing
that they could employ their money in
fields in which 1t would be more appre-
ciated. The suggestion has been made
that the Bibles be attached to the car with
chains. rs city directories are in drug
stores and hotels. but the idea Of chain
ing down Bible is SO incongruous that
1t has met with little favor. Chicago

Tiger and Lion.

Zone time, in order to test the cour-
age Of Bengal tiger and a lion" said
well known Snowman, 1--WE placed a
Chinese cracker in the respective cages
and fired the fuses. As soon as the fuses
began to burn they attracted the atten-
ton OF both animals, but in widely
different manner.
1.-The lion dreW into a corner and
watched the proceedings with dis
trustful and uneasy eye. The tiger, on
the contrary, advanced to the burning
fuse with q firm step and unhinching
gaze.
"On reaching the cracker he began to
roll it over the floor with his paw, and
when it exploded beneath his nose he
did not finch, but continued his exami-
nation until perfectly satisfied. The
lion betrayed great fear when he heard
the report of the explosion and for quite
a time could not be coaxed out of his
den. London Tit-Bits.

Linco1n's Log.

With the earlier anecdotes Of Lin
coins size and strength are linked al
ways other anecdotes Of his story telling
in the intervals between working hours,
when his long, gaunt figure would be
stretched at ease, and he would pour
out stories, anecdotes and bits of mimic
ry till the crowd around him was help
less with laughter.
In one town, where he stopped four
weeks to build flatboat, there was pre-
served and pointed out for many years
a peeled log, called Abe's log, whereon
he and his listeners used to sit lounging
and whiting in the summer evenings
So irresistibly funny were the yarns that
Abe told there that, said the narrator,
who used to be one of the boys, when
ever he'd end up in his unexpected way
the boys on the log would whoop and
roll off,"
The result of this appreciative fric-
tion, constantly repeated, was that Abe's
log, SO long rs it was in existence, dis
played polish like a mirror fr n one
end to the other. Youth Con .nion.

The old Talmudists had queer leg
end concerning the first pair created
by the Almighty. According to the
story, Lilith was Adams original
"helpmeet," and Eve was the after con-
sideration. The Talmud says that Lilith
was created just as Adam was-out Of
the dust Of the earth. Soon after the
breath Of life had been breathed into
her ears (you will remember that the
Bible says 'nostrils" in Adams CASEY
her entire nature changed to such an
extent that she Became veritable de-
mon. About this time the devil came
along. and, recognizing in Adams wife
all that was necessary to make a first
class governess Of the internal xegions,
persuaded her to quit the first Man and
go with him into the upper regions of
the air. 4" To us this seems like queer
place for the location of hell, but that
is the direction the pair are said to have
taken when they left Adam as the sole
occupant of the garden. AT home with
the king of the sulphurous domain, she
became the mother of devils, and then
deserted Pluto and became a "specter of
darkness ~
After this transformation her sole de-
light appears to have been in the de-
struction of innocent babes. II is even
said that our word lullaby" is cor
ruption of an oriental term, "lilla abb, "
which means "Avaunt," or "Begone,
Lilith." The ignorant and superstitious
Jews of the far east still tie amulets OF
charms around the necks, waists, wrists
or ankles of their babes in order to pre-.
serve them from Lilith's evil intentions.

whilst 1t lasted, and to keep track of the
trading was an utter impOssibility. The
suddenness with which prices jumped al
most three cents and fell back one was
almost unprecedented and was not to be
accounted for. Without warning of any
sort, prices began to climb, buyers finding
the market bare of offerings, and in their
anxiety bidding frantcaly for wheat 1t
