When a man is tired. he stretches his
arms and legs and yawns. Birds and
animals, so far as possible, follow his
example.
Birds spread their feathers and also
yawn, OF cape. Fowls often do this.
Fish yawn; they open their mouths
slowly until they are round. the bones
of the head seem to loosen. and the
gills open.
Dogs are inyeterate yaWners and
stretchers, but seldom SneeZe unless
they have cold. Cats are always
stretching their bodies, legs and claws,
as every one knows who has cat for
pet.
Horses stretch violently when and
after indulging in roll, but not, as a
rule, Oh all tours.
A stag when stretching sticks out his
head, stretches his fore feet out and
hollows his back and neck as though
trying to creep under bar
Most ruminant animals stretch when
they rise up after lying down. Deer
do it regularly; SO do COWS. This fact
is so we'll known that if a cow, when
arising from lying down, does not
stretch herself it is a sign she is i'll.
The reason for this is plain-the
stretch moves every muscle Of the
body, and if there be any injury any
where it hurts. Pittsburg Dispatch.

Remarkable TuE&Ors.

Some remarkable records of tumors
are given in The Lancet. The largest
known is a uterine tumor that weighed
1915 pounds, described by doctor Of
Bucharest. Hunter removed one
weighing 40 pounds from a woman
whose weight without the tumor was
95 pounds. The larges solid tumor Of
this class weighed 10 pounds. The
record for ovarian tUmors is held by
Chinese patient. who had one weigh

II pounds. There is a New York one

on record where the growth in one
breast weighed Ga pounds and in the

Senator Clark was asked a large
number Of questions by ex-senator
Faulkner. They all related to evidence
