True economy is in living within
ones income, doing the best we can
with the money we have and not being
ashamed of lack of funds to keep up APP
pearances with those who are richer
than we. Economy that degenerates
into stinginess is as bad in its way as
lavishness.

News was received here yesterday

was not acquainted with the eircnm-
stances Of the shooting, which he said
took place about II o'clock yes erday

Later, on reaching Nayasota, Mr..
Reed wired back that his brother was
not killed az first reported, but had been

years, and during that time have had

beasts, which have found are nearly
all. more or less. partial to the smell

and experienced animal trainer to a
Star reporter. For instance. the COM
mon brown bear is SO fond OF the
fumes OF tobacco that II you blow
smoke through the bars Of its cage II
will. with evident delight, push for
ward and rub its back and head
against the iron bars over which the
smoke passes. This Is invariable. Not
long ago I blew through hollow
stick a pinch OF snuff into the nose OF
a sleeping lion. The brute shortly af-
ter awoke, sat up straight, sneezed
violently and then lay down to sleep
very contentedly again. All goats,
deer, llamas and SO on will chew and
eat tobacco and snun with great eager
ness. Monkeys and big balloons also

Philip knew that now his only
chance was to remain with the vessel,
and attempt to save himself upon some
FRAGMENT OF the wreck. That the ship
would long hold together he felt was
impossible: already she had parted her
upper decks. and each shock of the
waves divided her more and more.
At last. as he ciung to the mast, he

and found that the poop ladder had

removed 1t, and entered the cabin,
where he found Mynheer Won Stroom
clinging to windward with the grasp
of death-but It was not death. but the
pagalysis Of fear. He spoke to him,
but could obtain no reply: he attempt
ed to move him. but 1t was impossi-
BILE to make him let go the part Of
the bulkhead that he srasped. A loud
noise and the rush Of mass Of wa
ter told Philip that the vessel had
parted amidships, and he unwiilingly
abandoned the poor supercargo to his
fate and went ont OF the cabin door.
AT the after hatchway he observed
something struggling-it was Johannes
thes bear. who was swimming. but still
fastened by a cord which prevented his
escape. Philip took out his knife and
released the poor animal. and hardly
had he done this act Of kindness when

The prepossessing impression which
the sultan is universally admitted to

to come into contact with him is
doubtless in part due to that charm of
manner, that quiet dignity, 30 free
from angular self-assertion, which is
more or less Characteristic Of all we'll

Use Bot,, Hands.

Left-handed facility among the
school children is subject that II re-
ceiving much serious attention from
the school authorities in Germany.
with view to developing both hands
and arms equally while the children
are young. They argue that the right
hand has been 80 excessively devel-
ored that many efforts which might
easily be delegated to the left hand
ara undertaken by the right The
smallest objects. as a rule, are picked
up by the right hand. Such one-sided
movements. repeated constantly, have
their influence on the entire system.
and are not conducive to the symmetry
OF the body. The habit OF people to
carry children on the left arm, 10 as
to have the right hand free. tends to
make the left shoulder higher than
tas right. In such cases the cure must
data from childhood. In the bows
La Junta tribune., 1899-05-06

mechanical departments in the German
schools much of the work Is done BY
the left hand under compulsion. The
boys are taught to saw. plane and ham
ner with the left hand as we'll as tho
right. In all trades and professions
Involving heavy hand work the i'm
portance of being able to use both
hands equally we'll is being impressed
On the students. AS example, the case
o. bronze worker is cited. He could
work as effectively with his left hand
a. with his right. That made It pos
s;ble for him to change about when
hts right hand became tired. and con-
sequently he got through considerably
more work than those who could use
only the right hand. The preference
given to the right arm has been ex-
planned physiologically by the con-
struction of the veins and nerves that
enter the arms. those Of the right arm
being the more prominent. The re-
verse is the case in the few who are
naturally left-handed. Many in
stances are on record OF men who
could use both hands with equal facil-
ity. Among them are two renowned
painters. Menzel and Klimsch, who
pr1.cticed the ambidextrous habit In
ras days Of their youth.
Exercises that require the effort OF
the entire arms are urged by the Ger
man educational officials. Large cir
cles are drawn by the scholars on the
blackboards. first with the one hand
and then with the other, without brac-
ing the hand, SO that the entire arm Is
iE action. The superiority of Japan
ese drawing can probably be traced to
the custom of that land to make the
children practice painting and draw
ing without the use OF any stick or
supporting device for the hand. They
are taught to draw at the same time
they are taught to write the letters
OF their alphabet. and they are taught
to use both hands equally in the task.
