There is a red and blue Fourth of
July bill posted at the east entrance
of the court house. The ink looks like
the remains of a cheap lot bought q
generation ago when good inks were
expensive. The red reminds one of a
grandmother's attempt to dye carpet
rags magenta, the blue of faded suit
of old jeans. 1t is a cheap job. The
bill is printed on the kind of old brown
paper crossroad storekeepers used to
tie up dried apples in forty years ago.
Its cheap but if you read it you will
be surprised. First you'll think the
celebration is to be at Woodman, then
you'll read that it is to be at Burton,
then you'll get interested and say
''Well, that's queer" then some one
will tell you CHATS all right, the
Modern Woodmen of Burton are get
ting up the celebration" then you'll
smile and wonder if the printer thinks
there is only one ''Woodman" around
Burton. Farther down on the bill
you may read that in the evening
there will be a dance with music
by the "Poosi Orchestra Oh yes
the job is cheap enough. The last
line is magenta; it reads, 1.-The Teller

Frogs Sing Love Songs.

One of the most extraordinary things
about frog music is the fact that the
frog keeps his mouth closed when he is
singing.
He can sing through his skin. He is
provided with pair of resonant cham
bers like drums, and he makes his music
by swapping his muscles against the dis
tended membranes. Then he can breathe
through his skin and supply all the
wind that is necessary without opening
his mouth.
y French scientist, after long listen
ing in the woods, has made out and re-
duced to writing the song of the frog,
or swamp music" as he calls it, and
has discovered that the frog repertory
is varied and extensive. Frogs can carry
On conversations at long distances and
can communicate to each other emotions
CT fear or anger.
Their songs, however, are all love
songs and are only INDUCED in when
there are female frogs about. 1t is then
that the frog distends his drums to their
utmost, throwing his head well back
and his legs far apart and raising his
voice, as it is called, to the very highest
Pitch of the musical scale.-Pearson' s
Weekly.

Russian Dissenters.

The so called Greek Orthodox popu-
lation of Russia is permeated with sects
of dissenters of all possible denomina-
tions. It is estimated that one third of
that population belongs in reality TO
some branch of nonconformists. Lu-
therans, Rationalists, Sabbatarians. Bap-
fists and Anabaptists are represented in
various ways among these dissenters,
many of whom strive TO return to the
principles of primitive Christianity, or
even to still more ancient forms of So
ciety represented in the Old Testament.
The right of free Interpretation of the
Bible is thus carried on all over Russia,
and there is no force which could limit
it.
Every village has its own teachers
men and women-who interpret the BIZ
BILE i'll their own ways, almost always
hostile to the present state and to the
official church. \ powerful religious
movement is thus growing in Russia,
and it is also bound to work in a not re-
mote time as powerful force against
autocracy. Krapotkin i'll Out

Plenty for the Mayor to DO.

Mayor McConochie has declined
ovcrturcs on the part of the ma jority
of the council to compromise the diff
ferCnces which unfortunately have
sprung up between the two branches
of the city government, and has indi-
Gated disposition to go on running
things as he has started out, giving the
aldermen to understand that if there
are any offices which they would fill
they must create them. This is indeed

city's welfare ut heart would suggest,
much less sustain, the idea of provid-

tion is reckless and should be
scorned. But it is not surpris-

to politics in his appointments might

WHY COPS ARE CORPULENT
An Old Member of the Force Explains
the Inevitable Paunch-


s'It's a standing joke with lots OF
folks said retired policeman the
other day, THAT almost as soon as a
new man is put on the force and goes
out ON patrol duty he gets fat. You
never yet saw picture of policeman
but that he had a paunch on him wor-
thy of an old country German.
"But it isn't corpulence that forces
policemen TO buy bigger wasted trousers
and coats as they grow older. It's de-
formity; that's right - deformity.
When q man is on his feet anywhere
from u to 90 hours out of the "a, he
Just settles down on himself. He puts
all his weight ON his hips.
This throws out his abdomen and
draws his shoulders back, making him
look hollow backed. 1t seems to rest
him. His feet and ankles, which get
sore, rheumatic and all out of shape on
account of his constant walking, are re-
lieved when he rests his hips. Just try
it and see how easy and restful the
habit is. But you'll get an amazing
front in short time.

large. l wore a No. shoe when /
went on the force 80 years ago. Now

of the walking.

two or three years are fat and at the
same time not fat. New York Sun.

improved in health lately.
Duddy-Yes, cured him. 1 got him
on to a scale the other day, and without
his knowing it managed to slip 20

he saw how much he had gained, he
began TO be cured. In less than two
days he was as well as ever he was.
