A Very Foxy Fox.

A gentleman whose word cannot be
doubted and who is not easily deceived
tells the following:
Very early one morning he saw a fox
eying most wistfully number of wild
ducks feeding in the rushy end of a
highland lake. After awhile the fox,
going to windward of the ducks, put
afioat in the lake several lunches of
dead PUSHES or grass, which fioated
down among the ducks without caus-
ing the least alarm.
After watching the effect of his pre-
liminary feet for a short time the fox.
taking a good sized mouthful of grass
in his jaws, launched himself into the
water as quietly as possible, having
nothing but the tips of his ears and
nose above water.
In this way he drifted down among
the ducks and caught fine mallard.
Though this story seems extraordi-
nary. it must be remembered that the
fox manages to capture wild ducks.

The Frost Kings Power-when Eliz-

There is in nature a king that rules
great part of this fair earth with a
pitiless sway. Have you ever seen his
work? If not, think of this: What is
it that brings the bird tribes in au-
tumn, host upon host, from their north
ern summer haunts? 1t is the frost
king. He lifts his hand in the far
north, and the grass and the leaves
are withered. He waves his wand
and flakes and crystals Of the snow,
as beautiful as any created forms upon
earth, come falling in myriads, to cover
the food Of the birds from sight
But winter has a beauty all it's own.
You have often caught the first crisp
fakes of snow in early winter upon the

many shapes. know your teacher has
with artistic skill drawn for you frost
patterns on paper till you have seen
that he who makes the blossom and
the leaf so beautiful bestows no less
of honor upon the crystals of the frost.
And the frost on the windows, have
you never admired its patterning?
Just bristly glaze of white" that
grumbler thought it. But look you
closer and better, and look again. VIII
it surprise you greatly to be told that
frost patterns, like leaf patterns,s have
both settled and definite formations?
They may combine indeed into end
less variations, but the simple patterns
remain the same. Where most of you
live, in what are called the temperate
parts of the United States, there is
little variation in window frost forms.
But farther north, where our own
country meets the British possessions,
there are many frost patterns of rare
beauty. Yet even in the more northern
climes these forms are seldom seen
save in the coolest weather, when the
thermometer stands 20 to 40 degrees
below zero.-P. B. Peabody in st.

by Prince Kropotkin. the author lays
great stress upon the way in which
the Russians themselves. throughout a
considerable and most important stra-
tum. have been for centuries saturated
in retroSressive ideas. often fippantiy
attributed to the court alone. In his
own house as a boy he witnessed the
terrors of serfdom. His father would

lights, an excellent gentleman, but sad

of his caste. He tells an amusing story
of the cross of st. Anne. presented to
his father ''foT gallantry" when, dur
ing the Turkish campaign of 1898, he
was lodged in a village which took fire.
With him was his faithful servant
Frol. and the latter saved a child from
the flames. The act was witnessed by
the chief commander. who gave to
Kropotkin the cross for gallantry. His
children used 10 be puzzled and would
exclaim, But, father. it was Frol who

Seen In the Rough.

Tortoise shells as they are unloaded
from the ships are far from beautiful.
To be classed as rough they must be
just as they were when taken from the
tortoises' backs. 1t is not until washed
and secured with acids that their ex-
quisite coIoring shows The same is
true of the beautiful seashells which
come here from the shores of India and
other tropical lands. There is almost
as much difference between them in
the rough and when finished as there
is between uncut diamonds and those
that have passed through lapidary's
hands.-St Louis Globe Democrat.

LOOKING INTO A SHOTGUN.

A bandits Victim Tells How 1t Feels
to BE Held Up.
Il happen to know how it feels to be
held up" said gentleman who now
occupies a position Of prominence in To-
cal railroad circles. Il acquired my
experience as passenger in a stage
coach about six miles from Tombstone,
A. IT,, in 1884. We had big load, six
men inside, two on the drivers seat
and an express messenger on the boot.
Every man in the crowd had a revolv-
er, two of the inside passengers had
Winchesters across their knees, and
the messenger had an bore duck
gun that contained nearly quart of
slugs. We were held up at about A in
the afternoon by single masked man,
who rose suddenly from behind pile
of rocks and covered us with a sawed
off shotgun. All the curtains were
raised, so there was a fair view of the
interior, and when he yelled Hands
upp everybody obeyed.
Then he told us to get out one by
one and stand In row, with our backs
to him. | never hated to do anything
so badly in my life, but saw the 9th
ers going and followed suit. About
that time half grown boy, apparently
unarmed, appeared from behind the
rocks and took up the collection. which
included our joint arsenal. After that
we We're ordered back. and the chief
bandit told the driver to go ahead.
AS far as l know, the robbers were
never caught, but what especially inn
pressed me about the episode was the
reluctance of any of our party to take
the initiative. | was certain the slight
est resistance would be successful, but
| realized also that the man who made
the first move had an excellent chance
of being killed. and | suppose all the
others felt the same way. Anyhow. it
happened exactly as | have narrated
it, During the year | lived in Arizona
there were eight or nine hold ups on

there any resistance whatever. That

COMPANY DINNERS.
They Are Dreaded by Guests an
Make the Hostess Nervous.


Make the Hostess Nervous.
Writing on Making Company of
Guests" Edward Box, in The Ladies'
Home journal, considers lit curious
fact that American housewives are SO
loath to believe that dinner with fuss
and feathers is dreaded by the vast
majority of people. The highest com
pliment we can possibly show guest
at dinner is to let him partake of an
ordinary meal, to let him come quietly
in and be one of the family yet this
is the very compliment which we with
hold from him. Instead of giving a
guest what he would relish most we
give him what he really enjoys least.
Let hostess be ever so graceful
and tactful, let there be years of ex-
perience on her shoulders. yet nothing
can conceal from her guests that the
dinner which she is serving is other
than an unusual one. 1t Is a formal af-
fair, and no amount of grace can make
anything else of it. for nothing speaks
so loudly or so merringly as a formal
company dinner. Every course shows
it; every movement of the waitress pro-
claims it; every piece Of china fairly
cries out the occasion.
And of course no one at the table
really enjoys it,. The guest certainly
does not. because he knows he is being
made company of. and that feeling Is
always enough to offset every enjoy
ment The hostess does not. for she
hasn't the time, Her eyes are for the
table and her servants. not for her
