CAMEL'S EXPERIENCE.
Sns Down So Much That Hie Hind
Legs became Useless.

Sns Down So Much That His Hind
Legs became Useless.
\ large camel which was landed at
IIoboken a few days ago from the
Bremen line steamer Dresden had an
experience which probably never before
fell to the lot of ship of the desert" ="
He made the voyage in large box,
and as there wasn't room enough in it
fol any self-respectingan animal the camel
sat down in sheer disgust. He sat that
way for days and days while the ship
rolled and made all sorts of heavy
weather.
When the detected animal was finally
landed and tried to stand up, he couldn't
use his rear props at all. They had be-
come parafyzed with their long stay in
/ cramped position. The camel wasn't
any good, it seemed, and, as big price
had been paid for him, there was gen
eral lamentation. The camel was ''in"
on the lamentation. Such picture of
woe was never seen in Hoboken.
At last Il genius suggested radical
cure. The camel, by his advice, was
placed in a sling and hoisted up until
only his hoes touched the ground. He
padded the air for spell with his fore
legs, and finally the rear props came to
life and joined in the exercise. They
lowered him to the floor, and, after he
had tested his rear legs somewhat GIN
Serly, he was as good as neva But he
doesn't sit down any more. Once was
enOurh for him.

A ne~ book of 1876 pages by Marvin Warren.
BY irresistible facts and logic it shows clearly
that the natural and easy way of maintaining
forever the parity of all gold, silver and paper
money is to make them equally a legal tender,
but not redeemabe in each other nor in any
thing but government dues.
The author holds that our financial aid in
dustrial woes come chiefly from the present
system of coin redemption, and he points out
way to speedy relief.
The measures proposed in this book are the
logical outcome OF the principles OF the Peoples
Party, and the rapid circulation of this book
svin be of immense service in uniting the
scattered forces of the party, and in making new
converts everywhere.
The retail price of MONEY CHART is % cents
We have special arrangement with the publish
ers by which we can furnish our subscribers the
book for 10 cents.

POOR BARONETS.
Some of Them Arc Always Coming
to Grief.

Some of Them Arc Always Coming
to Grief.
Mr.. Labouohere's sarcastic reference
to this lowest rank of the English hered-
itary titled order, "baronets and the
criminal classes" seems SO very, very
apt, says a recent London letter in an
exchange. Baronets insist upon going
wrong adj the time. There are at least
q half-dozen absolutely disreputable
baronets prowiing about the Strand at
this moment, cadging for shillings, free
meals and free drinks. If they can
manage to preserve a decent outward
appearance existence is not so difficult.
Their titles appeal to the man who
has never been on familiar terms with
anything in the shape of title before.
But the delight of knowing "a noble
man. soon passes when the succession
of small loans and general sponging is
realized. One of the worst of the dis
reputable baTonet species pQw iii evil
dence in LQD0on, and more or less in
the gutter, is the same man who few
years ago was in the United States act

FAULTY FlNANCIERING.
Failure of II Suddenly Devised Plan
to Save Street Car Fare.

Failure eff u Suddenly Devised Plan
to Save Street Car Fare.
There is a man somewhere on tha
South side who knows more about the
theory and practice of finance than he
did a few days ago and all he did TO gain
the knowledge was to jump off a street
car and pick up nickel which he saw
lying on the street, says the Chicago
Tribune.
Relating the circumstances later to a
friend he said:
ITS funny what fools some men are.
l saw that nickel after had paid my
fare, and my first thought was that if |
jumped off and picked it up it would
make up for the nickel had already
given the conductor. Having plenty Of
time did so. OF course I missed the
car which had originally boarded and
paid my fare. When the conductor
came around on the following car
surrendered my new-found nickel with
a serene and satisfactory belief that my
ride had not cost me anything, having
paid for it with the nickel found in the
street.
Then began to figure little. The
more 1 tried to solve the problem in
mathematics the more deeply became
involved. AS an actual fact l had to
count my change before 1 discovered
that 1 had not only saved a nickel, but
that 1 had contributed ten cents to the
company's Golfer and was still nickel
out of pocket"

DRUNKEN BEES.
Dumblebees That Gave Evidence of
Feeling RcmOrse.

Feeling RcmOrse.
T. L. Williams, in a note in the Jour
nal of Botany, points out certain facts
about bumblebees which will be of in
terest to some humans. He says that
these insects often get drunk. Their
Intoxicating tipple is the honey pro-
duced by the crowded flowers of the
capitulate heads of certain compositae
and dipsasaetae. When the stage of in
toNication is reached it is indicated by
rolling on the back, striking the legs
wildly in the air, and general helpless
ness.
The bees rapidly recovered from the
effects, and in most cases were eager
to repeat the debauch; but one indi-
vidual which had been shut up in
vasculum with copious supplies of cen
taurea scabiosa manifested the next
morning praiseworthy remorse and
disgust. raising its head and forelegs
as high as it could above the plants,
then hurrying away as soon as released.
The most dissolute S, kcies is the neuter
of bombus lapiderius. The remorse
probably indicates the presence of the
headache, which in the highest animal
of all is so provocative OF good resolu-
tons.

The Frog Crop.

The frog crop at present is wholly
wild, and the bulk of it is marketed in
Philadelphia and New York. Missouri
is the great frog producing state. The
town of Kennett alone ships 10000
pounds of dressed frog legs annually
and New Madrid is second with $4,000
pounds. These figures are taken from
the books of the railroads. The swamp
lands of Missouri and Arkansas are the
finest frog growing areas in the world,
the frogs found there being of the real
bull species. They are caught in all
sorts of ways, some with 2 hook and bit
of red flannel, and others by spearing
and shooting, The frog season begins
about the middle of March and lasts
three months. AT night men go out
in small boats which are provided with
lamps and big refiectors. The light so
blinds the frogs that the boat can pad
die right up to them and they are readi-
ly speared. Exceptional specimens
weigh as much as two pounds.-Phila-
delphia Press.
