Didn't Want to Be King.

The family life of the reigning house
hold both at Athens and at Deceleia is
said to be exceptionally happy. A story
is told, we'll illustrating the extent to
which democratic feeling has taken hold
even of the kings sons, to the effect that
as the children were playing together
one day they got to talking about what
they were to do when they grow up, and
the crown prince said to his brother:
ooh, George, you be king when you are
grown up; L don't want to-" Neither
did Prince George want to be king, and
both decided that it was a disagreeable
fate. Now one has been at the head of
the Greek fleet, and the other has been
sent in command of the land forces to
Larissa. / recall well that one day
when 1 was walking along the Odos
Amalias, or Amelia street, with my wife
we saw the crown prince and crown
princess also out prcmenading on the
street; and what tall, fine-looling fell
low he was!-blond, and very large,
erect, and in uniform.-President Will
liam E. Waters, in Chautauquan.

JEALOUS LIZARDS.

They showed Their Anger When
Their Owner Fondled Others.
M. j. Delboeuf, French scientist,
declares that lizards are actuated by
feelings of love and may even become
victims Of jealousy. In an article
which he wrote for French scientific
review, he tells about two lizards
which he kept in his house for several
years, both of which evinced unmistak-
able evidences of being troubled by the
same green-eyed monster which occa-
sionally plays havoc with the affairs Of
human beings.
my first two lizards had been cap
tured-one in the Spanish Pyrenees and
the other at Tarn in France, wherefore
called them the Spanish and the
French lizards, but afterwards gave
them the names Pedro and Pierre" says
NJ. Delboeuf
1.-The two lizards lived on the best of
terms for several months. Pedro was
fond of following Pierre around, and
when Pierre one day was missing the
other was sad and disconsolate.
1t was three weelSes before the lost
lizard was found, and then he was dis
covered upder the stair carpet, where
he had probably been all the time. In
the meantime another lizard was Sc
cured. The first two were males, while
the last conner was female. Her adj
vent brought on war between the two
former friends, which became so fierce
that they had to be placed in separate
cages and released one at time.
'Pedro was jealous of my preference
and caresses." continued the scientist.
"When he was on my sleeve l could
keep him for hours motionless by pass
ing my hand lightly along his body;
but If took Pierre or another lizard up
his rage broke out at once, and he
would jump upon him with his mouth
menacingly wide open.
IF, however, chose the large lizard,
he gradually drew back, as IL regretful-
ly, without leaving me. Now, what
good do caresses do lizard? Dogs and
cats, they tell us, are delighted with
them. But these animals, when they
were young, were caressed by their
mothers, who licked, bit and amused
them, and 1t is not strange that they
should find In our cajolery Il kind of rec
objection of motherly tenderness. They
play together, embrace one another
and press against one another. The
man who plays with them Is like COM
panion of little more respectable
species, and that is all.
"In menageries, monkeys, bears,
lions, tigers and hyenas indulge in ca
resses to the point that some animals
seek them and provoke them. But liz
ards, with their scaly skin, unaccus-
toned to embracing, feeling and licking,
Matched in the sum- My Pedro, there
fore, presented deviation of the feel
ing of jealousy"

Making Railroad. Smoother.

The fact that within the past Is years
two-thirds of the unevenness in rail-
road tracks has been done away with
on certain lines was discussed at are
cent meeting of the New York Academy
of Sciences. The improvement has been
brought about principally through new
designs and methods OF manufacture of
rails. A "track-indicator" car, travel
ing 20 or 80 miles an hour, sums up the
inequalities, the ups and downs" in
the rails for each mile traversed For
merly the total inequality" per milo
amounted to six or seven feet, even
for the best roads; now it has been re-
duced to only IS or 20 inches, and this
remnant is said to be due to dents in
the rails. 1t was pointed out that the
Improvements, which may be carried
farther, brings with it heavier locomo-
tives and cars, longer trains and higher
speed.-Youth's Companion.

To Preserve Flowers, Colors.

The natural colors of flowers may
be preserved with almost their original
brilliancy after being dried very thor
oughly in sand. The Gardeners Month
ly, which suggests this simple process
for manufacturing artificial flowers,
states that the most delicate flowers
can be made in this way to look for sew
cral years as though they had been
freshly gathered. The flowers should
be placed in pan or other dish and
covered with perfectly clean, dry sand.
This should be sifted over the flower
so as not to break or bruise the petals.
Every chink and Granny should be filled
without disturbing the natural position
of the leaves. When the pan is full and
every crevice has been filled solidly the
flowers are allowed to dry for several
days. 1t is often found effective to
warm the sand and keep the buried
flowers in warm oven. The sand
should then be removed, great care be-
ing taken not to break or tear the
leaves, which will be very brittle.-N.

Men Who Make Cyanide OfPotnssium
Are Strangely Tempted to Eat 1t.

Men Who Make Cyanide of Potassium
Are strangely Tempted To Eat 1t.
There is factory in London that
makes only the deadliest poisons known
TO chemistry. Last year it produced
1000 tons of cynaide Of potassium. Five
grains of this is sufficient to kill man.
In one room of the factory visitor
found tons of this deadly poison. tire
sembles very closely white crystallized
sugar. The visitor remarked to the
manager: at looks good enough to
eat"
"Ah," replied the manager, gravely,
"that is just one of the dangers we have
to guard against. For some inexplica-
ble reason cyanide of potassium exer-
cises. q remarkable fascination over the
men engaged in it's manufacture. They
are haunted by constant and ever-re-
curing desire toeatit. They are perfect
ly alive to the fact, however, that to give
way to the craving would mean instant
death, and are consequently usually
able to resistit. But not always. Dur
ing the time have been here three
of our best and steadiest workmen have
committed suicide in this strange man
ner, impelled thereto apparently by no
cause save this mysterious, horrible
longing. I myself have felt the same
strange lust when have been long ex-
posed to the cyanide fumes, and have
had to leave the works for time in con-
sequence So well is this curious fact
recognized that there are always two
men at work together in this branch OF
our business, and a Jar of ammonia,
which, as you may know, is the anti
dote to the poison, Is kept constantly
near at hand"
Apart from this remarkable infatua-
ton, which may be likened to the de-
sire experienced by many people when
standing on the brink of a precipice
to throw themselves down, the manal-
facture of potassium cyanide is not par
ticularly dangerous. Neither is it UNI
healthy. In fact, it Is asserted THAI
men have gone into the cynaide house
i'll and debilitated and in a short time
have been restored to robust health

The game of Initials" requires
nimbler wit. 1t also requires pretty ac-
curate general knowledge OF persons
who are uppermost. The point is, when
the name of some living celebrity Is
mentioned, TO characterize the celebrity
In two or three words beginning with
the letters which make the celebrity's
initials, as, for instance:
Chauncey M. Depew-Celebrated Mer-
ry Diner.
Ulysses S. Grant-Uncle Sans GEN

Fridjof Nansen-Fleeting Northward

Thomas w. Carlyle-Terrifying Wit.
ty, Critical.
Not all these examples are beyond
criticism, but as they are reported di-
rectly from gathering of young folks,
held not long ago, they show pretty
conclusively that the game has an edu-
cational value.
Played the reverse way, it would re-
quire even better knowledge of promi-

This Dog Act. ms valet.

Undoubtedly one Of the most intelli-
gent dogs in the country is Alexander
C. Young's liver and white notified full
blooded Ridgeway setter Frank"
Young lives in Flagtown, Summerset
county, n. j., and he has taught his
dog to bring his clothes to him in the
morning when he wishes to rise and
dress, to carry notes wherever he is
directed and to perform various other
duties that richer men than Mr.. Young
intrust only to their Wallets. Among
other things Frank carries wood into
the house when Young chops il. He
has on some occasions carried as many
as so or 60 sticks, one at a time, from
the woodward into the house without
cessation, and he seems to enjoy this
and every other of the pieces of work
he is directed TO do.
