shod Goe.e-spectncled Cattle.

In Bohemia when geese are to be
driven long distances to market they
are shod for the journey. The method
OF shoeing Is as simple as II Is effec-
tive. The geese are made to walk re-
peatedly over patches OF tar mixed
with sand. This forms a hard crust on
their feet, which enables them to
travel great distances without becom-
ing sore-footed Even more useful
than shoes for geese are the spectacles
worn by the cows that feed on the
Russian steppes. Forty thousand spec
tacled cattle are now to be found In
that region, where the snow lies white
for six months In the year. The cat
tie pick up living from the tufts OF
grass which crop above the snow. The
sun shines SO dazzlingly upon the
white surface that many OF the ami
mails formerly suffered from snow
blindness. Then 1t occurred to some
humane person to manufacture smoke
colored spectacles for the cattle. He
tried the experiment, and 1t was sue
cessful. The animals are saved much
suffering.

Lord Russell took a great interest in
sport of all kinds. and he had a weak
ness for lecturing people of all sorts
on their shortcomings. When in DC.
tober, 1898. the London Irish Rugby
football club was matched to play
Hammersmith club on the London
county athletic ground, Herne hill,
Lord Russell was invited and consent
ed to kick off the ball. On arriving
punctually at the hour appointed he
found that some of the members of the
Irish team were not on the ground He
waited patiently for ten or fifteen min
utes until all the players were assem-
bled, and then called up Mr.. Dyas, the
captain of the London Irish, and de-
livered the following homily: Capt.
Dyas and members of the London Irish
football club. desire to point out to
you that one of your cardinal rules In
life should be punctuality. Unless you
study that rule, whether in business or
play, you will never be successful men,
and hope that you will take to heart
the lesson am now reading you" The
lord chief justice with the utmost grav-
ity then proceeded to kick off the ball.

The seals and sea lions which infest
the mouth of the Columbia river have
created such havoc among the salmon
fisheries that crusade with dynamite
Is soon to be begun against them. The
animals are both shrewd and bold, and
il Is said that seal will police a set
net with great regularity, and take a
bite out OF the throat OF every salmon
Il contains. Frequently when a fisher
man is taking his net into boat and
is about to gaff fish which is entan-
gled In the meshes. seal will rise and
bite it's throat. The seal herds con-
gregate on certain sandspit in the
mouth OF the river. and 1t is proposed
that dynamite mines be sunk in the
sand and connected with the main
land by wires. When the animals are
ashore the mines will be exploded.
Similar plans are laid for the destruc-
ton OF the sea lions. which do not
gather with the seals.-San Francisco,
Chronicle.

And she paused irresolutely as his

1t was true Mollie's heart was beat,
ing uncomfortably fast; the prospect
looked gloomy; but she had plenty Of
spirit, and Henri's whole manner was
so detestable that her pride came tc
her aid and stilled her fears.

Mollie shrank from his touch. from
the sound of his thin, false voice, with
unutterable loathing, realizing, poor
child with terrible distinctness that
like the man in the parable, she hat
fallen among thieves; then she drew
back, throwing up her head with 6
scornful jerk, while her knees trembleC

Reasons of French Preparations.

Lord Salisbury is not wrong when
he alludes to the very unfavorable feel
ing toward England existing through
out the world, but to suppose that this
feeling can lead to anything more I'M
less England herself provokes it, espe-
cially to believe that this pretended ex-
plosion is to occur at any precise date,
such as November of the present year,
is simply idiotic and ridiculous. In
any case we are sure of one thing, that
France at any rate is contemplating
nothing Of the kind, and in the present
state of the world coalition could
not be formed against England with
out France. 1t is true that for some
time past we have become accustomed
to contemplate the possibility of rup-
ture with England. and we have even
made definite preparations in conse-
quence, but we have been compelled to
do this by circumstances that were not

CHAPTER "


The White House was one of the
most comfortable of homes; no dis
sension was ever heard there The
very servants. who had been in Mrs.
Anstruther's service for years, seemed
to share the prevailing harmony Of
contentment, and took pride in serv-
ing the family faithfully.
And Mollie could not but notice the
difference as. after a somewhat quiet
walk home along the country road that
separated the two houses by about a
mile, the gates of Chalfont had changed
to behind them, and a morose-looking
maid opened the hall door.
No household could have been happy
under Madame Dubois tyrannical rule,
Mollie had quite made up her mind to
that; and also another point-namely:
That both mother and son were to be
kept at arms length; that she was
L'Estrange, and could not-could not
stand them!.
And she had walked home in fer
ment of indignation because Henri,
after all the rebuffs she had given him,
had actually dared to call her Mol
lee" before the Anstruthers and few
visitors who had come in. and assumed
airs of proprietorship as he marched
them home.
So as Kate skipped off after the
sulky-looking maid, she turned abrupt
ly to the young man, who was loung-
ing in the doorway furtively watching
her with faint cynical smile in his
round black eyes. She was but a
school girl, this young English mees,
but she was adorably pretty. with
skin--ah, such lovely white skin
what would not Celestine or Lucie give
for IT!
Monsieur Dubois" she said gently,
fixing her clear gray eyes upon his
dark face. now my half-sister is gone
wish to sp ak to you--to remind you
that we are mere acquaintances, and
to such am not 'Mollie.' but Miss
L'Estrange. | am sorry you have
forced me to mention this. I hoped
that you understood It,"
For a moment they stood facing
each other, but her eyes never quailed

Prince Oukthomsky sent his cele-

in. Having been accepted, the exhib-

R.m.rkable Natural Curiosity.

Giles county, Virginia, contains a
remarkable natural curiosity known as
Salt Pond, which is described as lake
of fresh water sunk In Salt Pond
Mountain, at an elevation Of $500 feet
above sea level. 1t is fed by no Wis
ible stream, yet 1t is claimed to have
been gradually enlarging since 1904,
the date of its discovery. Fish that
have been placed in Salt Pond have
mysteriously disappeared. Its depth
is unknown, experiments with a line
800 feet long falling to reach the bot
tom. The origin Of the lake is un-
