Where Tigers Fear Men.

A cheerful place is S0raponjee, in In
dia. The rainfall there often is as
great in one afternoon in the rainy
season as it is in New York state in a
whole year. and tigers and leopards
are as plentiful as dogs are on New
YOrk's east side On account of the
tremendous dampness the cattle have
to be driven to the top of the hills, so
that they shall not get their feet too
wet, and the tigers and leOpards climb
to these high attitudes also, because
they are imbued with the kindly desire
to save those cattle from pneumonia
and other ills by eating them carefully
and with due enjoyment
AS there are no forests on the hills
the tigers prOwl about all night in the
open, lying concealed during the day
in the limestone caves. the coal pits
and between the rrevices Of the rocks.
The residents come upon them in all
manner Of odd, = z and corners so
unexpectedly 4 ne beasts are as
much alarmed as themselves and usu-
ally scamper off in one direction. their
disturbers flying in the opposite one.
No one stirs out at nighttime without a
powerful lantern or torch. for. as a
rule. wild beasts will not come near a
| light, though this rule does not hold
good in all caseS.-New York Herald.

A Mystery of the Sen.

A mystery with which every sailor
is familiar is the formation OF dust al
sea Those who are familiar with sail
ing ships know that. no matter how
carefully the decks may be washed
down in the morning and how little
work of any kind may be done during
the day. nevertheless if the decks are
swept at Dightfall an enormous guam
tity of dust will be collected.

STAGE KISSES ARE GENUINE.
The Public Demands Realism Even
In Stage LoVemaking.


In Stage LovemnI<ing.
Embraces and kisses are rehearsed
with the EXTREMIST care" writes Frank
lin Fyles of THE Rehearsal of a Play"
in The Ladies' Home Journal. They
must have an impulsive manner. They
must look sufficiently fervid. 1t is a
curious sight-that of two players who
are to express the ardent love which
Shakespeare has written for his 'RO-
meO and Juliet but who at rehearsal,
in modern clothes and no accessories of
glamour, practice kiss as mechanical
Iy and unfeelingly as though it were,
as ii is then. utterly devoid of senti-
ment. There must be no hesitation or
clumsiness. Romeo is not permitted to
decide whether to throw both arms
around his sweetheart or only one or
which. nor may Juliet be shy or for
ward. yielding or resisting. as she
chooses. The director will place their
arms for them if they do not them
selves make a picturesque exhibit of
tenderness.
"And the kiss? Shall it be delivered
by the wooer on the lips of the won
or on the brow or cheek? That ques-
ton is considered and settled. Are
kisses on the stage gpnuinpF Well, not
at rehearsals. except. maybe. once or
twice. in order to show the effect fully.
An actress would resent Il real kiss at
a rehearsal except when necessary.
For the satisfaction of natural curiOsi-
| ty on that point it may be told right
here that most of the kisses in the pub
| lie performances of plays are actual
kisses"

Raising LeecheN.

Leech farmers go about their busi-
ness in an interesting way. Having
fenced and watered a suitable meadow,
they proceed to SOW it with leeches by
scattering them broadcast on the land
from sacks containing $4,000 leeches
each. All that is now necessary is to
provide for the crop plenty of water
and plenty of blood. The usual meth
cd of providing the latter Is to drive
old horses and cattle into the inclosure,
but sometimes fresh blood from a
slaughter house is supplied.-Chicagc

German Syrup is the special pre-
scription of DR.. A. Boschee, a cele-
brated German physician, and is ac-
knowledged to be one of the most for
tunate discoveries in medicine. 1t
quickly cures coughs, colds and all
lung troubles of the severest nature,
removing, as it does, the cause of the
affection and leaving the parts in "a
strong and healthy condition. 1t is
not an experimental medicine, but has
stood the test of years, giving salts

increasing sale every season confirms.

Boschee's German Syrup was intro
