The chances are that one OF the best
attractions Of the present trottlng sea-
son will be series Of races for horses
of the 2;O7 class. Suitable purses will
be offered by the larger associations.
Lord Derby, 2;O7; Charley Herr, 2O7,

most prominent trotters eligible for
such a race The early western and

on the face OF matters II looks as
though Boralma and Lord Derby would

When in New York. directly after his

said Il offered Slosson several induce

Queer Creatures.

There are microscopic creatures
which live in roof cutters and on the
bark of trees and are known as water
bears and wheel animalculn. If allow
ed to dry up under the microscope, they
can be seen to shrivel into shapeless
masses, which may be kept for years
uninjured in the dried state.
On being placed after this long inter-
val in water they gradually plump up,
resume their proper shape and move
about in search of food just as if moth
ing had happened. Much the same is
true for the minute worms which from
the substances in which they live are
known as paste and vinegar cells. Well
known is the famous case of the desert
sEail, which retracted into it's shell,
was fastened to a tablet in the British
museum and showed no sign of life for
seven years, when one morning it was
found crawling hungrily about the
glass case that formed its prison.

ty-tive cents, eh? Not on your life. 1t
takes seventy cents to do the trick.
How many ways do you suppose a
quarter dollar can be changed? Just
exactly eleven. A fellow of limited
means may like the jingle of coin in
his clothes. In that event you can give
him twenty-five pennies or twenty pen
MES and one nickel. He may like to
have a little sprinllling of silver in his
clothes, and you can accommodate him
with fifteen pennies and dime or ten
pennies, a dime and nickel
If he prefers to have change handy
for beer and a car fare, why, fifteen
pennies and two nickels will fix him
up, and if he wants cigar in addition,
besides having a little stock of cash
in his jeans, give him ten pennies and
three nickels. That makes six ways.
Now, then, a fellow with a quarter can
trade it off for five pennies and two
dimes. five pennies and four nickels,
two dimes and one Nickel one dime
and three nickels or five nickels, just
as he prefers. And to accommodate

was removing his goods to temporary
quarters in another building.
The goods We're nearly all out of the
old structure when from some I'M

soon had stream playing on the

Never mind the goods." he shouted.

asked the chief.
"Yes," he said, 'but do you suppose

Pound Foolishness.

One of the commonest forms of pound
foolishness is c6untenanced by many
high authorities. This is the purchase
of certain household provisions in large
quantities. Few writer's on domestic
topics fail to lay stress upon the econ
omy of buying groceries in bulk. That
sugar and -four, potatoes and apples
should be bought by the half or whole
barrel, cereals by the case, butter by
the tub and other things in like proper
ton is one of the early precepts in the
Young Housekeeper's Complete Guide
to Domestic Economy"
The ignorant young things buy the
provisions first and the experience aft
erward. The -four grows musty, the
cereals develop weevils. the potatoes
and apples rot long before they can be
eaten, and the cook exercises lavish
ness in the use of the butter and sugar
she would never show We're they bought
in such limited amounts that the house
keeper could hold close watch over
them. Even after these events the
young mistress feels as if she were alb
