A GOOD EXAMPLE.

Doctor Yerkes, of Harvard UnlWsr-
sity, in experimenting with the turtle,
hah discovered that it is a model OF
patience and persistency. The Pru-
Dental Record gives certain results of
his observations: The doctor arranged
Z box with various obstacles between
the extreme corners, in one Of which
was dark nest. At the end furthest
from the nest he placed turtle. The
animal wandered around for thirty
Eve minutes before finding what it
wanted, but after it once knew the
route 1t began to improve on its rec
ord In fact, the fiftieth trip was made
in thirty-fve seconds. More difficult
labyrinths were arranged, and the tur-
tie again showed that when once ii
knew its way it went as straight as
possible to it's destination II it got
lost it would 20 back to the starting
point and begin over again. All these
things show that the turtle has some
points which everybody might copy
with profit. For instance, its way Of
making its record better with every
effort is entirely commendable Its
habit, when lost, of going back to the
starting point and beginning over
again can also be warmly commended.

ico THE international boundary line
Is formed by a street that divides the
two towns, and the boundary stakes
are set out with a very nice regard for
technicalities. There is a saloon there
which has more than a local reputa-
tion, and the proprietor is certainly an
enterprising individual. His saloon is
located on the street that divides the
two countries, and at a point where
the dividing line is not clearly defined.
The patron Of this saloon buys his
drink in America, and, stepping across
the hall, he buys his cigar in Mexico.
In this way the proprietor avoids the
duty on imported cigars, and can pro-
vide his customers with the best make
at lower prices than most Of his COM
petitors.
"They tell an amusing story about
an American who imbibed too much
fighting whisky at this saloon. When
he arrived at a certain stage he al
lowed his prejudices to get the better
Of him, and, standing near the bound
airy line of his own country he heaped
anathemas and hurled defiance at the
people across the border. A couple of
Mexican officers stood across the
street., almost within reach of the pug
nacious American, hoping that he
would stroll across into Mexico He
did get over there after a while, al
though the trip was wholly unpremedi-
tated. During a harangue against

A story Of panae.

Danae was a character in Greek
mythology, the daughter of Acrisius,
King of Argos, one Of the kingdoms Of
Greece in the days of Homer, An or
acle had announced that she would
one day give birth to a son who should
kill his grandfather. Acrisius for safe
ty's sake shut her up in dungeon,
where nevertheless she was visited by
the god Jupiter, in a shower Of gold,
and became the mother Of Perseus.
Acrisius next put both the mother and
child into a chest and exposed them
to the sea. The chest, however, drifted
ashore on the island Of Seriphos, and
Danae and her child were saved. She
remained on the island until Perseus
had grown up and became a hero. fa-

accompanied him to Argos. On his ar
rival, Acrisius fed, but was subse-
quently slain accidentally by Perseus
