SOME QUEER APPETiTES.
Ostriches and Goats Are Not Alone in
Possession of Them.


The novel operation mentioned in our
yesterdays issue of the removal of over
six inches of hat pad from the neck of

dent A Daily Mail representative, in
the course of some brief interviews
with several leading veterinary sur
geons yesterday, heard of many strange
accidents that befall domestic pets, and
of how science has on many occasions
given painless and complete relief.
Kittens and puppies, and cats and
dogs, it was stated, are frequent suffer-
ers from a lack of discrimination in
swallowing things never intended for
consumption. Hatpins, meat skewers,
knitting needles and ordinary needles
and pins are among the articles they
have been known to swallow. Only re-
Gently tiny fox terrier was submitted
for professional examination on what
was supposed to be an abscess in the
side. The surgeon, however, decided
that a foreign body was present, and
nothing could of course be done without
| the mercful aid of choroform, for it
| is both interesting and gratifying to
| know that even the least painful opera
| ton is never attempted until the ami
NAL to be operated is placed Tempo
rarily beyond the reach of pain. The
results of this operations disclosed the
presence of a wooden meat skewer in
the terriers stomach, with the point
| projecting between its ribs. The obsta-
Gle was successfully removed and to-
day the tiny pet is as frisky as ever it
was.
Another small spaniel paid the penal
| ty of its righteousness with its life,
mainly owing to the fact that its owner
was a comparatively poor man. One
morning the dog entered the bedroom,
and, bounding upon the dressing table,

EMPLOYMENT FOR WOMEN.
An English Encyclopedia Giving List OF
Their Vacations in Great Britain.


From the New York Sun.
Some one in England has been pub
fishing an encyclopedia of employ
ments for women, and the work holds
startling revelations for the ordinary
conservative citizen who clings to old
ideas about woman's sphere. There is
a tradition that the English woman,
above all things, is domestic, and that
the pushing, bustling, fin de steele
American girl might profitaby study
the shrinking, clinging femininty of
her English cousins. But the new book
on women's employments is calculated
to bowl over any such tradition and
persuade the American girl that she
isn't even keeping up with the process
sion.
Feminine architects, farmers, plum
bers, bankers, chemists, contractors
and gardeners are. apparently, drug
on the English market.
Woman divers are more discOuraging ::
but there is a woman diver in Portland.
Me-, and all loyal Americans would be
willing to bet that she can dive further
than her English rivals. Perhaps, too,
there are American feminine cab driv-
ers, and pilots, and letter carriers.
There was a time when a thirty-m mile
tramp would have terrified any woman
not born and bred in England, when an
American girl knew as little about a
horse as about a rhinoceros, and when
sailing a boat was an accomplishment
rare enough even among American men,
But that's all changed. Fair golfers are
in excellent training for letter carrying.
Any one of the New York bellies who
| loses her millions can utilize her cat
| boat experience and triumphs in secur-
| ing pilots place: and, as for cab driv-
| ing, that would be really too slow for
| American young women, unless they
Were able to tool tandem or fOQr-in-
| hand teams before the cab.

Centenary Church Christmas
Festival,

Last night was a memorable occasion
in the history of Centenary M. z. Sun
day school, it being the occasion of It's
Christmas festival, and to say that the
entertainment was a success, would be
putting it very mildly. The scholars,
under the careful training of their
chorister Mr.. ]. p. Grandy, had become
thoroughly proficient in their several
parts in the service rendered, entitled
The Star and the Song"
In keeping with a time-honored GUS
tom of this school the decorations were
exceedingly elaborate and appropriate
to the advent season through which we
are now passing, and reflected the
highest credit upon those who arranged
them. The pulpit and chancel was a
bower of beauty. and the large audience
gathered was charmed by the splendid
music, fine singing and recitations Of
the children, who were attired in beau
tiful and appropriate costumes, that
blended tremendously with the sur
roundings. So perfect did each partici-
pant render his or he, part of the pro-
gram that 1t would be difficult to de-
eide which one was the most meritor-
Gus. Mr.. Grandy exhibited excellent
skill in managing the details of the en-
tertainment. and everything went off
like clock work and to the satisfaction
of all present.
The audience was unanimous in the
expression that a more superb program
had never been presented by this school
in the past.
AT the close of the exercises the usual
presents were distributed to the schoI-
ars a number of them were of in
trinsic value.
