Fishing hooks are as old as Adam,
made of stone, bone, thorns and any
old thing, not to mention deer horn and
boars' tusks. The bronze hook of the
bronze age was succeeded by the hook
of iron. The aborigines of Colombia
used gold hooks, while the ancient peo-
pie of Peru made theirs of copper. The
bronze hook of today is considered an
expensive luxury. For years the most
important seat of fishhook manufac-
ture was Limerick, Ireland but the
once popular Limerick has been super
seeded by several styles of American
make that are not only much cheaper,
but are not inferior. AS for our fine
ROOSEVELT. we have them from two
and one-half ounces up to ten pounds,
and some of them can be tied in bow
knots. OF course our lines are IN
equaled. York Press.

Wild Tebraa,

The zebra when wild is a ferocious
animal, and an unwary hunter is likely
to suffer from its teeth and hoofs. The
author of "kloof and Karroo" says that
Boer in Cape Colony had once forced
zebra to the brink of a precipice,
when the desperate creature turned up
on him. attacked him with its teeth and
actually tore one of his feet from the
leg
Another author writes of soldier
who mounted a half domestcated ze-
bra. The creature, after making the
most furious attempts to get rid of its
rider, plunged over a steep bank into
the river and threw the soldier as it
emerged.
While the man lay half stunned upon
the ground the zebra quietly walked up
to aim and bit off one of his ears.

Irving was always severely accurate.
Shortly before he put on the Merchant
of Venice" he inquired of a brother
actor if he could supply some stage
business" for the part of Shylock.
The actor being, like Shylock. a Jew,
thought he might, and asked Irving
how he meant to do the 'imprecation
scene" which occurs upon Shylock dis
covering that Jessica has fed with
Lorenzo and the jewelry of her late
mother, Mrs. Shylock.
Irving knelt, held his hands prayer
like and rehearsed the terrible impreca-
ton, Il would my daughter were dead
at my feet and the jewels in her ears"
Upon the actors saying he was
wrong, Irving rejoined that he had fol-
lowed the stage direction in the book,
and that all the best Shylocks so did it,
as the Keans, Brooke, Fechter and
Phelps.
YES" said the actor, "but they were
all Christians. A Jew in imprecating
never kneels, but stands upright, pass
ing his open hand over his face"
Irving adopted the hint.
Soon afterward a well known London
solicitor, also a Jew, who had seen the
new version, told the actor in question
that he had not before been aware that
Irving was zone of u.s." and he refused
to believe the contrary. Ledger Month

The Penalty of Being Idle.

Idleness is at the bottom of the
drunkenness, gluttony and sensuallty
which compass the destruction of one
section of the community at the present
time. 1t is at the bottom of that par;ic-
ular form of heartache which is the
plague of women the heartache of a
purposeless. miserable existence. Such
women often look forward TO marriage
to cure them, but when they are mar
ried and settled the old malady recurs,
and in our own day we see them run
ming hither and thlther after that elu-
sive something. Others try to find
cure in the suffrage and others again in
cigarettes.-Sarah Grand.

A Harlem woman recently decided
that family prayers were really neces-
sary to the proper bringing up of her
young son Johnnie. Mr.. Jenkins, NOM
inal head of the family, didn't exactly
see the necessity, but, of course, yield
ed to his wife. The next morning aft
er breakfast the Jenkinses assembled
in the sitting room with a feeling of
suppressed excitement at the novel pro-
ceedings. After the ScripturaI reading
they knelt beside long sofa, Mr.. Jen-
kins at one end, Mrs. Jenkins at the
other and Johnnie in the middle. Then
Mr.. Jenkins offered up prayer invok-
ing the divine presence.
Jenkins prayer was long and fervent.
After it had continued for five minutes
Johnnie got restless. decided 1t was too
monotonous and interrupted in his thin,
boyish voice with:
Yes, bod; come and stay to dinnerw
Mr.. jenkins concluded his invocation
with an abrupt "Amenw Johnnie safe

Craig Thompson had said, for his mind
was busy with other problems that had
been suggested to it by his sojourn in
the Smoky valley and which were des-
4,ned to tax to the utmost the explain
Story powers of his father.
The day soon came when the work of
the round up was completed, and the
time for play arrived. There was a
broad stretch of level ground near the
center of the valley, and that was Sc.

of skill in Craftsmanship and the use of

Craig Thomp4on saw him leave his
horse and go to the center of the
ground, where, after marking the point
OF beginning, he began to pace the dis
tance for the contestants to run.

Nothing occurred, however, until
