list just issued by a company that makes
it its business to scour the jungles and
hunt through the forests for specimens of
natural history. The price, quoted in
the original are in pounds sterling, but
we reduce them to dollars in the follow
The lion comes first on the list, as be-
fits the king of beasts The most eX-
pensive ware V is the South African lion,
which is quoted at 81 800. His wife is
marked down to $500. The North Af-
rican lion comes cheaper, at just half the
price, while the Asiatic lion is worth $S125.
The lionesses are put at S400 and 1915,
Royal Bengal tigers can be had at $3.50
each tigeresses at $50, and cubs at $3.50.
\ serviceable hippopotamus may be had
for 81 $50. Bactrian Camels come at
$3.50 each and dromedaries at Si5O. The
kangaroo varies greatly in price and so
does the chimpanzee, both being quoted
at from SO to $1,000. The ourang.
outang is marked at $500 straight balloons
from $500 to $3.50; Brazilian apes from
SO o TO $500, while monkeys may be had
at prices varying from s. to S25 each.
The most expensive bear quoted is the
grizzly, which ranges from S400 to 5000;
then comes the polar bear at $3.50, and
the brown bear at $50 each.
Rhinoceroses come high this spring.
You can't expect to get a good one of the
African variety under So, 600 but the In
dian rhinoceros is priced at So, 900. FL.
ephants are worth from 81, 500 to 81, 500,
and giratfes are put down at S6, 900 per
pair. Ostriches are worth S400 per pair.
Very few wild beasts birds or reptiles
are on the bargain counter. Small alliga-
tors may be had as low as 50. so, and
older and tougher onos as high as 500.
The range in crocodile prices is the same.
Seals are quoted at $25, but we do not
advise ladies to purchase them with the
idea of raising their own sealskin sacques.
Satisfactory rat,lesnakes can be had as
low as $l5, while pythons range from
that figure up to 800. Cranes and storks
The price list puts the value of full
grown gorilla at $50, ,00O, but the COM
pany does not guarantee TO produce one
even at that figure. That is only an es-
innate of what the creature would be
worth if the dealer had him to sell.

THE SWEETEST SONG.

asked famous singer who had sung
The songs which half a listening world had
stirred,
What was the song that touched his heart
the most
What was the sweetest song he ever heard?
The singer unused a moment then replied:
"In tropic climes our good ship lay becalmed?
The sea was glass, the sky blazing fire.
Malignant fever held me in its tolls
Till in mad delirium raved
OF quenchless flames, and burning, endless
thirst.
zone day woke, though still 1 seemed to
dream:
heard the gurgling waters sweeping past.
The cool winds famed my keaa yet hot from
pain;
Delicious rest and languor filled my soul;
"And, then, o! welcome sound,
The cry Land hor'
The sailors gathered on the deck to see,
And as the good ship bounded through the
foam
They sang the sweetest song on earth to me.
Twas "'Home, Sweet Home.'"

her costume is that of the American

SOFT SHE'LL CRABS.

"There is no danger of eating soft
shelled crabs" observed an epicure,
"if they are fresh, but they are poison
if they are not. They should be well
seasoned, and an extra lot of pepper
put on them as q precaution, especially
if the weather is very hot when they
are eaten, or if they are eaten shortly
before one retires. 1t is the habit of
many persons to eat soft shelled crabs
at night time. 1 do not know but
that they taste better then. 1t is
somewhat dangerous to many to drink
milk after eating crabs. Milk seems
to develop the collie that follows eat
ing soft shelled crabs with some per-
sons.
"Another thing that should be re-
membered, and that is sharp thunder
storm will kill soft-shell crabs, and
even the hard-shelled crab at times.
Unless the oft-shelled crab has been
cooked before the thunder storm, 1
think the safer plan would be to de-
cline to eat it. Under all other con-
ditions there is no danger in partak-
ing of them, for l do not think any
one would be criminal enough to cook
a dead crab, hard or soft shell. The
proper way to kill crab is to throw
him into kettle of boiling water. I
know that some people think this is
cruel, but it is no more cruel than it Is
to stab them with needle or kill them
with chloroform, as l have known
some extra sensitive persons to do. -

shiffIess."

From a recent issue Of a Kan.
sas City paper, we find some
thing that recalls an incident Of
the long ago. A young lawyer
was making a sophmoric fourth
Of July address to a mixed
crowd Of ladies and gentlemen.
When in the zenith Of his grand
perioation, assuming a stage
attitude he exclaimed, "What
would this world be without
woman. During the pause in
cident to so soul stirring a ques.
ton, a drunken wag leaning
against the platform blurted
on. "by thunder it would be a
shifIless concern"
We are sorry for Mrs. Lease,
but give the Kansas item, as
follows:

preacher, politician, and lawyer,
came to Kansas City last night
TO lecture on "christ or Cae.

"You can't bluff me with
this" said she, 10 which the con.
stable replied ~.
mo bluff intended, madam.
We mean business, and we have
the baggage"
The yalise contained four
copies Of her lecture, q package
Of hair pins, some face powder
and paint, and a curling iron,
night gown, and other gar.
ments. Mrs. Lease says the ar
ticles are not worth more than
30, and that the officers can
have them.

Popular sentiment is so un-
animous in this section fol the

in their heroic endeayor to free
