rwo po,nter. a. to the Goat.

''You may go into the goat business
and educate the people of the middle
west to eat goat meat" said Wiley o.
Cox yesterday, "but you will not learn
from books what my father learned
from experience" and then Mr.. Cox
gave away trick of the trade.
'sThe man who goes in for Angoras
will find that it is true they will jump
anything under 100 feet high and climb
q sapling. They will get at the neigh
boris wash as sure as it goes on the
line, and there will be lingerie to pay
for. But if you would be on the safe
side and keep the billy there turn him
up and cut away the little creeper that
you will find at the bottom of the hoof.
1t will not hurt him to lose it, but it
ruins his ambition as mountebank.
It will save lots of trouble to have a
chiropodist get at the Angora with a
nail trimmer"
Goat meat cannot be distinguished
from mutton ordinarily. In every car
of sheep that comes from New Mexico
there are sure to be from two to doz-
en- goats in the lot. They all go to the
same block at the packers, and the
good wife who takes home goats chops
for lamb chops is never the wiser Nor
is the butcher. A goat is only goat
when he has his pelt on. After that he
is sheep.-Kansas City Journal.

The Lady. and the. cobr..

An English woman residing in India
one evening found to her horror that q
huge cobra had coiled itself about her
veranda rails, near which she sat play
ing the violin. She was too near the
snake to run with safety, SO she contin-
ued playing while she gradually edged
away. At first her only idea was to
keep the creature thus engaged while
she escaped, but when she had gained
safer distance and perhaps fascfnat-
ed by the unwonted sight a strange in
SEPARATION seized her. She played air
after air Of different characters.
The effect was magical. That snake
behaved like an ardent, hot blooded
disciple of Paganini. Every variation
in the music, whether Of volume or of
tone, produced instantly a correspond
ing change in the attitude of the cobra.
If she played lively: dance, it swayed
it's body sideways in quick time and
yet in graceful curves. Once she struck
q number of false notes in rapid sue.

and writhed in pain as If suddenly
struck with whip.

The three great luxuries in Siberia
are churches. theaters and museums.
Even the smaller villages can usually

These are all amply supplied with bells
whose rich tones roll in majestic har-

they are presided over by married
