direction, some tapping furiously over
the water in vain efforts to rise; 9TH
ers circling laboriously into the air.
To the latter the young hunter de-
voted himself, and now stood leisurely
swinging the two balls around his
head, with a slight upward angle.
Faster they few, until they finally dis
appeared from sight; and then, the air
being filed with geese, he released the
ball in his hand, and the remarkable
weapon, with its three balls widely
stretched in opposite directions, yet
whirling violently around, went
whistling into the air. Up it went, and
with almost human intelligence seemed
to glide in among the birds and wind
about them like the coils of snake.
One bird was stunned by blow from
the ball, while two others, completely
entangled in the cords, came futtering
down into the water, where they were
easily secured, little later being fas-
tened to the horse and on their way to
the home Of the hertlers, miles out on
the moorland.
The bolas is the natural weapon of
the Spanish South Americans, who are
remarkably proficient and skillful with
It. They use 1t on the continent in TAX

on horseback. whirling the three or
four balls in the air with very long
cords. and sending them SO swiftly that
they rarely miss, whirling tightly
around the legs of the bird and bringing

An Autumn Night.


some Things are good on autumn nights.
When with the storm the forest fghts.
And In the room the heaped hearth lights
OId-fashioned press and rafter;
Plump chestnuts kissing in the heat,
A mug of cider, sharp and sweet,
AND at your side face petite
With lips of laughter.
Upon the roof the rolling rain,
Anc, tapping at the window-pane,
The wind, that seems a witch's cane
That summons spells together;
a hand within your own awhile,
A mouth rejecting back your smile,
And eyes. two stars. whose beams exile
All thoughts of weather.
Ana, while the wind lulls, still to sit
And watch her fire-lit needles fit
knittin' and to feel her knit
Your very heartstrings in 1t;
Then, the old clock ticks, tits late,
To rise, and at the door to wait
Three words, or at the garden gate
A kissing minute.

There are indications of cooperation

AS means of encouraging truck grow
ing along their lines in that state the
Plant system has called a meeting to
consult those who wish to cultivate
vegetables, to the end that the people
and the railroads may mutually benefit
each other in producing and marketing
vegetable crops. The proposition is
made by the Plant system that the grow
ers shall meet and form themselves into
an association in order that they may
be effcctually benefited, and it offers to
furnish the best seeds that can be Sc

grown successfully in that section at

LARGE EATERS.

Much Food 10 Not Necessary to Coed
Health.
Large eaters are generally deficient
In activity and endurance. l used to
know one who tried hard to be Chris
tan, but failed because of too much
dinner. That man was a curiosity. He
worked in a small wood-turning shop
and ate five times day. When he con-
suited me about his poor stomach"
told him fatty that he was pig. He
replied: you are mistaken; l am
faint half the time, and have to eat ex-
ira meals to keep up my strength" l
went at him with fact and physiology.
At length he was convinced, and prom
ised me that he would follow my pre-
scription, which was this: Take but
two meals a day. In Is days
his faintness had disappeared and he
rapidly recovered. To-day he is q
healthy, active man, and warm advo-
cate of two meals day, and moderate
ones.
Temperate people with good diges-
ton never feel their stomachs-forget
they have stomachs-while these big
eaters are always hungry, faint or
bloated, troubled with eructations, acid
ity, diarrhea or some other unhappy
condition of the digestive apparatus.
Persons having good stomach to
begin with can, by practice, learn to di-
gest an enormous quantity of food. If
they give their whole force and vitality
to this business of grinding grist they
can, in the course of even a short life,
grind through immense quantities. But
the wiser, the more human wag, is to
find out just how much food is needed
to run the machine, exactly what fuel
will keep the system at the best work.
ing point, and never pass these bounds.
For years the author had eaten three
hearty meals a day. At length. upon
careful consideration of the physiology
Of digestion, he thought he was prob
ably using too much of his force in that
function. He reduced to two meals q
day. He cannot express what freedom
in mental and bodily activity he expe-
rienced. Men with large heads and
well-made bodies sometimes consume
so much of their nerve force in d.
gesIon that they have nothing left with
which to achieve those triumphs that
otherwise would be easy to them.-Dio

EXPERT ON A TRICYCLE..

the shoulder of some local speedy
man." 1t makes friends with other
wheelmen, but refuses to ride with
more than one person on the same even
ing.
New York has bicycle pug owned by
Carroll Fleming, No. 81 West Twenty
second street, who is having an up
holstered wire basket constructed for
its comfort during the autumn rides.
With the pug on the wheel no bell is
needed, for the animal has a distinct
liking for the sound of its own voice
and banks most of the time.
Charles Hemstreet, No. IL Dey street,
New York, had until recently bicycle
monkey. The monkey rode in any po-
sition on the wheel or the rider, as it
saw fit, and kept up continual chat
tering all the time. 1t leaped from the
handlebars to the riders shoulder and
back again like a flash, and hung on
by feet and tail ir most accomplished
manner. The cool weather, however,
proved too much for it and it caught
cold and died.
But a more remarkable bicycle ami
NAL than any other yet heard of is Con-
sui H., chimpanzee, at Bellevue gar
dens, Manchester, England R. L. Gar
ner, who has just published book
on the speech Of monkeys, calls it the
most marvelously human ape in exist
ence.
Consul IL. rides wheel, not as other
animals do through the help of the
real rider, but unaided. The ape is four
years old and was brought from the
west coast of Africa year and half
ago. Its aptitude for learning tricks
is immense. Music is one of it's chief
accomplishments, its efforts on the
violin and bugle being too ludicrous
TO imagine. 1t is particularly fond of
it's cigarette, and enjoys its tobacco
as only the prince of monkey con-
noisseurs can. Not content with using
soap and towels for its additions, it
also shaves, causing much amusement
when stropping its razor; and in addi-
ton to this shaves it's keeper in finished
style.
But It's strong hold is the wheel. IL
rides both the bicycle and the tricycle.,
and it is claimed that it is the only
monkey in the world that possesses
these accomplishments. 1t learned the
tricycle. first, and afterwards took to
the bicycle quite naturally. 1t is an
expert at the sport and steers the ma
chine worthy of study by beginners.
Consul gives performances daily, dis
plays of bicycle riding and other tricks,
all of which are out of the common.
While playing about the grounds the
ape often finds cigar stump. 1t knows
what it is, picks it up, puts it in its
mouth, and goes to the keeper for
light. 1t will not attempt to light the
pipe or cigar for fear of burning its
fingers, but it will light match and
hand it to the keeper TO hold. 1t some
times takes piece of paper, lights it
in the fire and hands it to some one
to light the pipe for it. 1t is afraid
OF the fire and will not hold the paper
itself,

SUNNY ROOMS.

They DO Much Toward Making Sunny
Lives.
Light is one of the most active agen-
cies in enlivening and identifying a
home. We all know the value of sun
light as health-giving agent to the
physical system; it is not less SO, TO
our moral and spiritual natures. We
absorb light, and it nourishes us with
strange powers. We are more active
under it's infuence-can think better
and work more vigorously. Let us take
the ARREST, choicest room in the house
for our living room = the workshop
where brain and body are built up and
renewed. And let us there have bay
window, no matter how plain in struc-
ture, through which the good twin
angels of nature, sunlight and pure
air, can freely enter. We can hang no
picture ON our walls that can compare
with the living and everlasting pictures
which God shall paint for us through
our ample window-rosy dawns, gold
en-hearted sunsets, the tender green
and changing tints of spring, the white
of winter, storm and shine, glimmer
and gloom-all these we can have and
enjoy while we sit in our sheltered
room, as the changing days glide on.
Dark rooms bring depression of spir-
its, imparting q sense of confinement,
Of isolation, of powerlessness, which Is
chilling to energy and vigor; but in
light is good cheer. Even in gloomy
house, where walls and furniture are
dingy and brown, you have but to take
down the heavy curtains, open wide
the windows, let light stream in, and
gloom vanishes and care and sadness
flee. Keep your house sunny, and keep
your soul sunny. Let the Sun of Right
eousness arise on you with healing in
his wings, and you shall find that light
u sowu for the righteous, and gladness
for the upright in heart."-Detroit Free

Canoeing.

The white clouds race across the blue;
The white foam flecks the bay;
Who would not float and follow, lads,
AS fast and far as theyi
on coats and kneel, alert to meet
Each impulse gay or grave,
And clea e a ripping line of light
Athwart the wind and wavel
Sometimes the idle paddle owns
The sheltered inlet's charms;
Sometimes the urgent rapid strains
Against our tireless arms;
Sometimes through drowsy afternoons
Those river reaches CLEAN
Wherever weary willows nod
And whisper in their dream.
And though. the dreaded portage past,
Our campfire gilds the brakes,
We scarcely fall asleep before
A fresh, new morning wakes.
Push off, then! Leave this gray old earth
To milder men than we,
Full brothers of the open sky,
Near kinsmen TO the sea!

SOME LATE NEW THINGS.

Pneumatic car-fenders have recently
been patented, consisting of a number
OF elastic tubes set in metal frames
shaped like ordinary tenders.
A handy little coin package is made Of
metal and is fitted with sliding section

closed and fastened with a loop when
the package is full.
A new folding table has drawer set
in the under portion of the table top
m such manner that it cannot be re-
moved when the legs are folded up, the
legs covering the front of the drawer.
An adjustable handle for carrying
travelling bags is arranged so that it
can be fastened to either side Of the
bag by riveting a pair of brackets in
which the ends of the handle lock to
zach side of the bag, thus allowing the
bag to be carried either fiat or edge
