WHAT ANIMALS SHY AT.
Some of the Illusions from Which They
Suffer.

Suffer.
Young horses can be led up to q sack
lying on the ground and induced to pass
it by letting them smell it and find out
that it really is a sack, and not the Pro-
team thing, whatever it may be, which
illusion conjures up for them. Once
the writer saw q very quick and pretty
instance of experiment by touch made
by frightened pony. 1t was being
driven as leader in pony tandem, and
stopped short in front of where the
rails of g steam tramway crossed the
road. 1t first smelled The near rail, and
then quickly gave it two taps with its
hoof. After this it was satisfied, and
crossed the line. On the other hand, o
donkey always tried to jump the shad-
ows of tree trunks on the road, though
similar experiment of touch would
have shown that these were as unreal
as the tram rail was substantial. Last
ly, no horse which has once knocked
its head against the top of a stable door
way seems quite able to get rid of the
illusion that there sits up in the top of
all doorways an invisible some, sing
which will hit him again next tire he
goes through. Hence the troublesome,
and sometimes incurable, habit Of
horses "jibbing" when taken out of tie
stable.
This is an Obvious instance of the G'a.
dvar age at which most animals stand
in regard to means of physical expert
ments. The horse, for instance, needs
only feel the Intel to find out that it Il
fixed ard does not move, and is rot alive
and waiting to hit him. But except his
lips, which are sensitive, he has nc
member with which he can make this
experiment. Except the elephant and
the monkey, most of the higher" ami.
mails suffer 1m this lack of the mean,
of experiment. The wonder is, not that
they suffer from illusions. but that thej
make so few mistakes.-Spectator.

new book of 1S5 pages by Marvin Warrsa.
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 legal tender,
but not redeemable in each other nor in any
thing but government dues.
The author holds that financial and in
ilustrial woes come chiefly from the present
system of coin redemption, and he points out q
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
will be OF immense service in uniting the
scattered forces OF the party, and in making new
converts everywhere.

Lacing.

To be Glazed" is now considered
the height of vulgarity. Fashion,
frivolous as she is, does, once in a
decade, strike something sensible,
and this is certainly one of the
times. Fancy the human figure
being expected to show the neck
and waist of the same proportion
Those who are trying to live up to
this false ideal must have grown
into deformity. 1t is quite natural
the waist should be smaller than
the bust or hips, but it need not be
strangled. Few of us are con-
structed on the lines of the ideal
women, so that much of our beauty
of form depends on good corsets.
These are of primary Importance.
All mOdistes declare this, although
few of them have any preference,
provided the corset is suited to the
figure wearing it. What is needed
is a corset allowing plenty of room
at the bust and on the hips, inter-
fering in no way with the breathing
and catching one in just below the
ribs. The trouble with corsets in
general is they are too long and
press upon the ribs. The glove
fitting corset is the correct mode.
In Paris the shortest sort of corsets
are worn. Every corset should
have at least two laces so there will
be no straining at any point.

Two Weeks in Florida.

To see Florida is a pleasure; tC
visit it is privilege; but to spend
fortnight within it's borders is an
epoch. There is a great satisfaction
in witnessing the ripening of tropi-
cal fruits in their own native land,
and a peculiar joy in wrestling
with old ocean s waves when lakes
and rivers at home are all icebOund.
One appreciates the wonders OF
modern invention and railroad de-
velopment upon leaving the neigh
borhood of good skating one day
and finding himself in the vicinity
of good bathing the next. Yet this
can be done, and the man who pre-
fers hunting 2r fishing will take
his Announcements along with him,
for Florida extends cordial invita-
ton to all sportsmeA.
Whoever would exchange for
two weeks the uncertain climate of
the North for the delightful and

related to beets and spinach. The nettle
is well favored though somewhat coarse

A Benefit Ball Game.

Friday afternoon a game of base
ball was played at the local ball
park between what was supposed
to be the Columbus and Quitman
teams, but which were really com
posed of players from different sections
Of Georgia and Alabama, there being
in the game only two or three players
from the towns alleged to have been
represented. Both sides were as
sisted by Dawson men. Another pc
culiar feature was that both of the
teams were under the management of
one man, gentleman from Quitman,
which made the fact very evident that
the game was a benefit affair, and its
object more for the gate receipts than
baseball supremacy. The game was
a very mild one throughout and result
ed in score Of II to 1 in favor of
Ouitman.
