Training Cats.

From the Providence Journal
Says a trainer of cats How do COM
mence training them? Well, / don't care
exactly about making my method public
property. but | am not, avcrse to telling
you this much-that cats meat and milk
form two of the most important factors IN
the operation. 1t is a common superstition
that cats are stupid animals. / do not
think. so. They certainly are not so intel
ligent as dogs. Neither are they sociable.
But once they get to know what is wanted
of them they are easily induced to do Ii
to the best of their ability. Kindness and
patience go long way with cats. A little
wholesome correction is oftea good for a
dog, but use whip to cat for one time
only, and even ever so sDaringly. and its
value d trick animal is destroyed for
ever. Cats are simply bundles of nerves
covered over with fur. and even an Inkind
word or a glance from any one they love
will cause them acute suffering. Another
secret in training cats, or. indeed, any ami
NAL, is never to disappont them of their
promised reward. i remember once while
performing in the north of England some
time ago. walking five miles at 10 o'clock
at night in a binding snow storm TO get
my happy family its regular supply of
milk. So much Obedience 81 much cats

Limited Partnershfps.

From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.
The word limited" SO often seen after
the business title of firm, is a precaution
against disaster. Under the English law
there are two kinds of stock companies |;
in one the liability OF the stockholders is
company has a nominal value of fI00.O00
and the company fails for f500. 600, the pri-
waite property of the stockholders may b.
taken by process Of law to satisfy the diff
ference between the amount of the stock
and the amount of the liability. When,
however, the company is limited" the liza
bilities of the stockholders are limited to
the amount of stock they hold, and in case
of the failure of the concern they are not
liable to a greater extent than the value OF
their stock.
