rope. thus sums up the results Of his
observations OF religion:

in morality The towering architec-
ture and groyeling humanity pro'Ound-

THEY SLEEP HANGING UP.
sroths and BATS suspend Themselves
without ExertiOn.

There is one animal which lives en-
tirely In trees, but is able to maintain
its position during slumber without the
least exercise OF muscular force. This
Is the sloth, common in the forests of
tropical America. Its long claws are so
bent that they hook over the branches
and allow the creature to hang upside
down like an animated hammock. Gu
riously enough, the hammock appears
to be a South American invention and
is universally employed by all the In
dian tribes Of the Amazons. Perhaps
the primitive human dwellers In this
region took to sleeping In hammocks
after observing the habits OF the sloth
The great ant eater, which is both a
kinsman and fellow cOuntryman Of the
sloth, has an enormous tail, which II
uses in very remarkable manner. l
recently saw two Of these strange anil
mails lying together asleep, and they
had arranged their tails so cleverly
that their whole bodies were hidden
from view. Moreover II was evident
that this caudal covering would afford
excellent protection from the weather,
for the central solid part of the tails
acted as a kind of ridge pole over the
highest part Of the sleepers' bodies, so
that the long fringes Of hair slOped
downward on each side like the thatch
upon roof
Like the slOths, many kinds Of bats
sleep suspended by their hooked claws
without any muscular exertlon what
ever. Some of the large fruit eating
bats Of the tropics. which do not sleep
In holes like the species common In
southern ATTITUDES. but which hang sus-
pended to the branches of trees In the
open air, adopt a position which 1t
would be difficult to beat for economy
and comfort. Gould's fruit eating bat,
common in the warmer parts of Aus
tralia, suspends itself upside down by
one hind foot and wraps its body In the
tentlike folds OF its wing membranes,
which extend right down to the an
kles. Its shoulders. to which the men,
brane is attached. are bumped up so as
to act as caves to shoot off the rain,
and when asleep II draws Its head I'M
der their shelter and nestles its nose
among the warm fur Of its chest.

CLOSED THE FACTORIES.
What nm American Circus Did In n
German Town.

/
Aix-la- Chapelle Is a busy manufac-
turing town in Germany, close to the
Belgian frontier, on q little tributary OF
the Meuse river. 1t has nearly 100000
inhabitants, and its numerous advan-
tages make it very busy and thriv-
! ing city. Its sulphur and thermal
springs originally made It's fortune, for
Charlemagne was so pleased with them
that he made the place the capital Of
his empire and, though the town hall
now occupies the site Of the marble
palace he built, the chapel that he
erected and In which he was buried
still exists as part Of the cathedral.
Nearly 10000 visitors flock to Aix-la-
Chapelle every year to take the wa
tiers, but the springs are by no means
the only source of It's prosperity. 1t
has large elements Of wealth In Its
coal, lead and zinc mines, I'm its metal
working establishments and In It's cloth
mills and manufactures of needles and
pins. A large part of the people work
In the mills.
Late In September last the lnhabit-
ants Of the busy town had new SEN
sation. 1t was an American circus
and curiosity was aroused to the high
est pitch by such advertising rs the
people had never seen before. The in
terest in the billboard display and In
the circus itself when 1t entered the
town with a great blare Of trumpets
was so great that Consul Brundage
thought It worth while to send a report
about 1t to the state department.
The art display on the blllboards
was revelation to everybody. The
thrilling and marvellous scenes to be
witnessed under the canvas were de-
picted In the most expansive and high
ly colored style of American circus art.
Nothing like the magnitude and stun
ming character of this billposting had
ever been seen in the town before, and
the free show given on every dead wall
was the talk Of x-la-Chapelle for a
fortnight before the circus arrived.
Thousands thronged around the circus
grounds when the big wagons and tent
hands arrived and the way the rings
were prepared and the tents erected
caused even more establishment than
the spectacular billboards.
In fact. by the time the canvas door
flap was turned back and the ticket
seller was ready for business every
body in the town had taken hand in
advertising the great American show.
There was no work for the factory
hands that day. Not n workman went
to the factories, and every spindle In
the town was idle AT every perform
ance." writes Consul Brundage. THE
tent was full. The vague antipathy
felt 10y the people for the United States
has been turned into respect and awe.
The people now say. Anything is pos
sible to Americans.

PENDANT replied, 81 am unable to say

the justice. But in the interest of the
spread of knowledge will digress and

"Never heard Of It" said the prisoner
cheerfully, land know just as much

about soap. You might try me by a

Your peers are too busy telling fairy
tales to bartenders on this muggy
morning to come out to help the ends

"I'm not intensely interested in the

coldly. 81 don't know whether you're

HOnOrIng John Dunynn.

Honest John Bunyan. If he could rise
from his grave. would be not little
astonlshed. we imagine. to find a serv'
ice being conducted in his honor by a
bishop his praises being sounded by a
dean and stained glass window being
erected to his memory in an Anglican
cathedral. We expect he would be
more scandalizcd than pleased. The
window he would denounce as flat idol
atry. and the dignitaries of the church
in surplice and cope would incur his
sturdy denunciation. Rather than ac-
cept such honor he would return to
Bedford Jail. None the less, we are
glad that a memorial Of the author of
the grandest allegory ever penned
should be placed at Southwark close
to those concentrating Shakespeare,
Spenser, Fletcher and BPaumont.-St.

The Dogs WatchfuIness,

The dogs watchfulness, SO much and
so thoughtlessly lauded as the express
sion Of his devotion to man, Is merely
the instructive watchfulness necessary
to his safety In wild state and Is a
characteristic which he would exercise
quite as readily for his own kind and
the preservation Of his lair as he would
for the benefit Of man. When he barks
at strange dogs or gives warning at
