DANGERS OF NERVES.
by Which the Women of To-Day Are
RRSef.

1t used to be a matter of faith, years
ago, that we possessed nerves, for we
were unconscious of them. Nowadays.
however, they have become of most
vital Importance; they are. so to speak.
"houschold pets" 1t seems that tenn
per" has gone out of fashion; so far. at
least, as we are concerned. and, though
it is possible to admit that our neigh
bors may suffer from attacks Of temper
we never do-nO, we have NERVES"
There is sort of necessary dignity
about the possession of nerves, though
we own they cause us trouble. We
speak in quite a reproachful way of ~
woman who has no nerves. just as i
this meant the same as that she is with
out refinement and tenderness.
Nerves are, however, dangerous pets,
for they are apt to become our masters.
Indeed, to nerves are ascribed the un-
wholesome craving for excitement, the
morphia habit and the excessive use
of stimulants among women, as well as
variety of other evils. Nerves, no
doubt, would be kept in check better if

A TAME LEOPARD.
with Its Master 1t Walked About the
Streets of Berlin.


OF all the cat tribe leopards are the
easiest to tame, if they are captured
when young. When they are old their
savage habits have become fixed, and it
is almost impossible then to tame them.
Thirty years ago Il curious and we'll
known sight on the streets of Berlin
was Won der Madliern with his tanned
leopard. Baron Won der Madliern,
when a young man, was several years
German consul in Egypt, While there
an Arab friend presented him with a
young leopard. 1t was only few days
old, it's eyes not open yet. The young
baron determined to make pet of the
leopard and train and treat it like a
dog.
The leopard was never confined in
cage, but was always allowed full lib
erty, and was well fed and petted, He
slept on a comfortable rug in his mas
tcr's room, and, if the night was cold,
crept upon its masters bed and shared
it with him. Through the day, indoors
and out, he followed Won der Madliern
about like faithful dog and displayed
a dogs affection for his master
He grew by and by into a handsome
creature, one of the largest of his spe-
cies, and finely marked. Whan he had
been in Won der Madliern's possession
about two years the baron was recalled
to Berlin, and took the animal back
with him. In Berlin the leopard occu-
pied the same place in his masters
house that he had done before, and fol.
lowed the baron about the streets in
the same way.
At first the sight of the creature
stalking solemnly along beside the
man created quite a sensation in the
city, and people crowded to see them
pass. But it grew to be an everyday
matter, which only attracted OCCASION
al notice from strangers or children.
The animal lived to be about IS years
old, and died much lamented by all who
knew him, His story seems to prove
that the wildness of such animals Is
only slightly inherited, and that their
better nature may usually be brought
out by the proper treatment.-Our
Animal Friends.

No bet II comment on the terrible

fered thai the following clipping from
Il recent sue of the New York Tele-
gram:
Give me a cigarette!' gasped
George M kt, with his last breath, as he
died Sur iiy, raving maniac, in the
insanef vilion of Bellevue hospital.
All dc. ong doctors and attendants
had STR gled with the emaciated young
man, V had suddenly gained the
strength pf hundred giants. He had
raved a | fought until finally he was
completely exhausted, and had sunk to
his cot S II weak as scarcely to be able to
articulate.
Young Merkt was cigarette fiend,
and his death was the result of nico-
tine-pois9ning. About six months ago
he begant to act strangely. Though \
strong man, he became extremely nerv-
GUS; and unless he had cigarette in
his mouth all the time, he was apt to
lose his temper and abuse his father
and his yEife. He finally reached stage
where 10 packages day were consid-
cred an ordinary allowance.
when his condition grew steadily
worse, his father consulted a physician,
who advised that he be placed in pri-
vate ward in Bellevue. He was taken
to that institution, and was under
treatment for about two weeks. When
he returned home, his friends said that
he had at last been broken of the habit.
Strange to say, up to this time his
vicious excuses had not greatly
changed his physical appearance.
He abstained from smoking for two
days after he returned to work. Then
he was unable to control the old APP
petite, which seemed to have returned
to him with redoubled vigor. He was
again soon smoking IS packages day,
and is said to have kept up that average
until he was taken to Bellevue hospital
in a state resembling delirium ire
mems.
by this time the poison had begun
to make itself manifest in the young
mans physical appearance; his cheeks
had fallen in, his complexion was sal
low, his formerly powerful shoulders
were bent, his eyes seemed to be start
ing from their sockets, his tongue grew
tAe color of chalk, and the skin, too,
began TO peel off Oft.
The metaanorphosis in his mental
condition was fully as marked. From
sensible young man he was changed
by turns into a snickering, Sinking
idiot, or into a raving demon that the
combined strength of four ordinary
men could not handle. This continued
until death cut short his sufferings-'

HELPING THE BIRDS.
How TO Build Homes for Them Which
They VIII Like,


Life is an uphill struggle with many
Of our birds, and they are exceedingly
grateful for a little help at suitable
times. Boys and girls may, if they
wish, help the birds, and have fun be-
sides.
One way to help the birds is to put
up a bird house or two, and you may
be lucky enough to have the wrens
build in them. Just word about bird
houses. Numbers of them are built
wrong, as you may see by little OBJ
servation. The hole for entering is
made on a level with the floor, and
when the bird attempts to build nest
the sticks, grass and feathers close up
the only door. In the right sort OF
bird house, which is merely a box about
eight inches square, the hole for the
birds to enter is made in the middle
OF slightly above the middle of the
front. When the nest is built the open
ing is just on a level with the top of it
The picture will show what is meant
A slanting roof sheds the rain best
and a little doorstep or place on which
the bird can alight is appreciated, bu,
a plain square box, with a hole an incl
and one-half in diameter in the front
of it will do. Nail such box on the

shed or house, out of the way of prowl.
ing cats, and wait for luck to bring you
a bird. In the suburban towns you are
quite likely to get a little, brown, fussy,
sociable wren before May is gone.
Another way to help the birds is to
keep a pan or large tiOwerpot saucer
filled with fresh water in some place
where the birds can use it to wash
and drink from. Do not be discouraged
if they do not come in the first week,
for they must first find it, and next, IN
less it is kept full and fresh, they will
not patronize it regularly. Robins, blue
jays, cat birds, chirping sparrows and
blackbirds all enjoy good bath and a
cool drink, and are likely TO come TO
you.
If an oriole is building near you,
throw some bright-colored worsted,
some string or hemp on the bushes and
the oriole is likely to call for it,
If bird decides to build near You
you can help him by driving away
the rascally English sparrow, which
will try to drive him away. But the
English sparrow, that tramp among
birds, hates the evening bath as much
as the man tramp would. SO, when the
sparrow goes to roost at night or, bet
ter still, when the nest is nearly built,
make a campaign against him with the
hose and wash him off his roost or his
nest from its place, and it viii soon be-
gin to dawn uDOn him that he is not

Treasure in an Old Ark.

A great deal is heard of hidden treas
ure, but very little is ever found. a
California man is one of the few lucky
ones. Last September an old fisher
man hermit was found d I'd in his ark,
in a steamer near San Jose. The cor
oner held an inquest, and the ark was
sold at auction for $3.50. Not long aft
erward the purchaser blossomed out in
new clothes, and took trip east. His
friends became inquisitiye, and finally
the man confessed that he had found
hidden in the ark, in notes and coin,
more than $4,000. Now people recall
that the old fisherman once had $23, 900
in bank, and the man who thought he
was so lucky is being sued by the her
mit's relatives to recover the money.
