with which the Spanish minister of
foreign affairs. the Duke Almodevar de

lions OF the Spanish peace commits

picion among the officials here that
there is lenind it q deliberate purpose

govern ment has usually waited for the
American government to make move.

retained by the United States, such a.

why Do Your skates slip?

Why do your skates slip on ice?
Glass is just as smooth, but you
couldn't possibly skate on it. If you
doubt it try your skates on piece
OF glass and see whether they will
slip or not.
The reason why ice is slippery and
glass is not is very simple. Ice alway
melts little under pressure and fric-
ton. When the steel of the skate
touches it little water is formed, and
this acts as Gil between the skate and
the ice, and the skater slips merrily
along. The expression in regard to
glare ice, ''It's as slippery rs if it had
been creased" is not far wrong. On
glass this liquid lubricator is lacking,
and the friction between the skate and
the glass renders slipping impossible.
Put two pieces of glass together with
few drops of water between them,
and see how easily they will slip
about, one over the other. Chicago

Making His Job Last.

The city of San Luis Potosi is build
ing hall that will be the eighth won
der of the world. Seven years ago a
dozen skilled stone-masons from
Pennsylvania were imported to do the
ornamental carving of its front. One
Fourth of July member of the party
got drunk, and killed a Mexican in a
barroom brawl
He was tried, and condemned to be
shot. Then arose the certainty that
with him in the grave there was no
one to do the fancy carving on the
City Hall. 1t was decided to keep
him at work, and shoot him when he
had finished.
Every day, in summers shine and
winters snow, this workman hangs
like a fly against the great white wall,
and pecks away at gargoyles and grif-
fms heads. A file of soldiers stands
i'll the street looking up at him.
His life ends with his job, and they
say that he is the most deliberate
workman ever in the Mexican Repub-
lie. At the present rate of progress
according to the best obtainable calcu
lations, the front OF the City Hall will
be sufficiently scrolled and carved
about the middle of 1950.-Chicagt

How a Fox Is Caught.

Winter is the propitious season of
the hunter and trapper. His game is
out and nature obligingly acts the
part of detective by spreading her
mantle of snow to register their move
ments. Each kind of animal possesses
its own peculiar habits and strategic
methods which must be familiar to
the pursuer who hopes for success.
Any other denizen of the forest is be-
lieved to be more easily outwitted
than the fox. All know how high his
reputation is for caution and cunning,
yet he has acquaintances of human
kind so intimately acquainted with his
ways as to see just how to overcome
his scruples and make him an easy
victim of the trap.
If Reynard has paid recent visit
to the henhouse, or whether he has or
not, if his den can be located with ap-
proximate certainty he may be ap-
preached in that locality on the sub
ject Of capture; not in plain language,
to be sure; not by open methods, but
in accordance with his own stealthy
tactics. The whole plan rests on the
tripod of caution. patience and perse-
yerance.

Literary Dogs.

Some time ago the Kansas City
(Kan. Council passed an ordinance Civ
ing the public library fifty per cent. of
all money derived from dog licenses.
This will amount to about $2500 per
year. The membership fee to the pub
lie library is 81 annually. The pro-
moters of the free membership scheme
claim that by virtue of the ordinance
giving the library half of the dog IL
cense money, the poor people of the
city practically support the library.
They argue it is not the rich people
who keep dogs, but the poor classes.
The license on female dog is 50. so,
while its costs 81. % per year to harbor
a male dog. 1t is claimed that ninety
five per cent. of the money derived
from dog licenses comes from the To-
boring people, and, inasmuch as their
money supports the institution, they
think it is no more than right that
they should be allowed free access tc
the library.
The ordinance will provide that when
person takes out dog license the
city clerk shall issue with it one mem
bership to the library. Topeka Kan.
