CAR-RIDING MAKES HER SAD.
1t II Because Mothers Ill-Treat
Their Small Boys by Pulling
Them About.

II am always made sorry when I ride
in the cars, through the, shopping dis
tricts particularly" says the Chicago
Chronicle of woman, ito see the way
mothers ill-treat small boys. It is an
ethical cruelty, but quite as disastrous
as physical i'll treatment might be, it
seems to me. I see poor little fellows
OF seven and eight, nice little men, who
would be manly if they were allowed
to be, pulled around in the cars, out of
the cars, pushed into that seat and out
of it into another as if they were so
many little dummies.
= "They usually are very nearly that,
for seven or eight years of such push
ing and pulling are enough to take
all the spirit out of small boy I'M
less he has unusual vigor of charact er.
A boy of that age ought to be begin
ming to look out for his mother and
finding seats for her. Occasionally a
sensible mother, who treats her boy like
human being, is to be found, and it is
pleasure to see the two together. The
boy who is dragged around like little
muff during the early part Of his life
is apt to come to himself after a time
if he is not entirely ruined and then
he goes to an opposite extreme, is rude
and self-asserting while he is trying
to establish an equilibrium, and the
mother can't imagine what the trouble

SHEEP FOUND IN ALASKA.
of All Wild Game and Is
Much Sought.

This rare wild white sheep is found
nowhere in the world but Alaska, and
few specimens for mounting whole have
ever been obtained, says writer in
Outing. This species, named owls dali
by Prof. Dali, differs from it's cousin,
the Rocky mountain big horn (ovis
montana) in color, owls montana being
a dull brown in midsummer, changing
to grayish drab in winter, with light
ashy-colored patch over the rump all
the year, while the owls DALI is snow
white at all seasons; in fact, there is not
a colored hair on any part of it's body.
He is not quite so stockily built as the
"big horn," yet more trim and shapely.
Two of my specimens stood AZ inches
at the shoulder. His limbs are not
quite SO heavy, and his horns will not
average as large at the base. although
quite as long. The horns of my largest
specimen of 1897 measured Az inches
in length and 1878 inches in circumfer-
ence at the base. 49,"
The flesh is the most delicious of all
wild game. In the summer this sheep
lives chiefly on the rich, succulent
growth of the asplenium septentrion-
ale, which grows in the crevices of the
rock on the sunny slopes of this ragged
range. This beautiful animal must en-
dure great hardships to survive the win
tiers of this icy north.

THIS CAT REFUSED TO DIE.
How an Intelligent Pussy Put = Stop
to q University Professor's
Denomination.

Students OF one of the big UNIVERSE
ties in this city have q cat that has
utterly refused to become martyr to
science. It's history is another instance
Of the refining and eleyating influence
Of science, says the Chicago 1imes-Her-
aid. r..
Prof. Blank asked j. P. Morgan, the
janitor to get q cat for him, as he
wished to illustrate his lecture on "Res-
piration" by experiments upon the ami
NAL. Mr.. Morgan succeeded in getting
one with the aid of some small boys.
When his students had assembled the
professor put the cat into the glass
receiver of the air pump and began to
pump out the air. Before the piston had
time to move more than once or twice
the cat began to feel very uncomfort-
able, and, discovering the aperture
through which the air was escaping, put
her foot on it and thus corked the pipe
and stopped the removal of the air.
Several subsequent attempts to car
ry on the experiments were alike inef-
fectual, for as soon as the glass cover
was put over her and she felt the re-
moval of the air the cat would put her
feet over the pipe and keep them
pressed there.
The students, struck by the remark
able intelligence shown by the cat,
asked the professor to iberate the ami
NAL and loudly cheered her self-posses-
sion when the cat, after coolly clean
ing herself and smoothing her ruff1ed
fur, jumped down and rubbed against
the legs of the students sitting on the
front bench. She is now permanently
annexed to the college and an object of
interest to all visitors.

PLEA FOR THE GOLDFISH.
A Chief Cook Says This Fish II Not
Appreciated at Its Real
Worth.

IF Goldfish cost dollar a pound"
said the chef, lit would be more univer-
sally beloved. I tell you, it is the best
dinner fish known. I have tried the
whitefsh all over the world, but the
Goldfish is king of them all and is not
appreciated at his real worth. Cook
him in any way you like and he is de-
icious. Even the dried Goldfish, picked
up and served in cream for breakfast,
is fine dish. Put him in a bag, sew him
up tightly and let him boil, or bake
him carefully, well stuffed, and he is
delicious.
'Let me tell you that when you make
fishcakes you should not drown out the
fish with potato. Put as little potato
or other substance in the cakes as posi-
BILE, and, if you want them as fine as
they can be made, wrap them in a blan-
ket of eggs and do not be sparing of
the egg. You can make a tasty dish Of
Goldfish cakes if you will follow my ad-
vice. Fish cakes are considered very
democratic dish; of1scourse,. but my
patron, who pays me a large salary, is
as democratic as he used to be in his
younger days. When he sends down to
me an order for fish cakes for the next
mornings breakfast he says he wants
Meschutt's fish cakes, with egg. That
is the order, and he is thinking of his
younger life, when, as he once told me,
in a basement on Broadway he used to
get the finest butter cakes and fish
cakes he ever tasted, excepting yours,
Chef he adds always. But l know
that dimes in those days were as thou
sand-dollar bills to him now, and his
appetite was keener and more appre-
ciative."

Col. Bell, the United States consul at
Sydney, recently appeared as witness
in the divorce court in that city on the
point whether a certain certificate
would be accepted in the American
courts as formal proof of marriage.
''You are lawyer, think, Col. Bell"
remarked the judge. "Well, no, sir"
replied the colonel, with Mark Twain
like drawl; II was once, but have re-
formed" When the laughter had sub
sided the bench settled the matter with
the dictum: "Once lawyer, always
lawyer" The colonel then pronounced
the certificates valid from the legal
American standpoint.
