A LIONS WEAK POINT.
Something Tint IA Trainer Does Well
to Find Out-An Illustrative
Instance,

One of the many queer things to be
noted in the study of captive life
is the fact that each animal requires
or rather dreads-some form of
punishment which very likely would
have no terrors for any other animal.
A certain lion fears nothing in the
world save a stick held in the train
er's left hand. A frisky young
tigress used to be affected only by
her trainers blowing sharply on her
nose. Trainers frequently discover by
pure accident what it is that an ami
NAL breads, as was the case in an oc-
currence at Berlin described in Every
body's Magazine. By way of intro
duction, it should be explained that
almost the first thing an animal
learns when he is performing with
other animals, is that his block or
chair is his own particular property,
where he can retire when his act is
over, and where he is sure of not
being disturbed by the trainer or by
his fellows. A lion finds this out very
quickly.
Three lions were concerned in the
Berlin atfair-Sammy, a very green"
two-year-old; Caesar, a splendid speci-
men of his race, but, unfortunately,
subject to sudden fits of rage, which
it is not easy to quell; and Caesars
mate, Mrs. Grundy. She was the idol
of Caesars heart, and, assured of
that, she rode over him roughshod.
Upon the night of Sammy's debut,
things went off all right until after
the seesaw act. Sammy had not yet
become fully accustomed to the rock
ing plank, and he was glad when it
was over, and jumped down in
hurry to get to his block.
1t came to pass that Mrs. Grundy,
who had also been on the seesaw, left
it just as Sammy did, and either
through inadvertence or because she
thought she could treat all creation
as she treated her indulgent lord and
master, leaped coolly upon Sammy's
block and settled herself comfort
able. She even started to wash her
face. So when Sammy came along,
he found his place taken.
Now Sammy knew perfectly we'll
that this was not right; and it must
be confessed that he had the law on
his side. Mrs. Grundy knew it quite
as well, and cared not flirt of her
tail for it. Had she not Caesar to

STARTLING COMPARISONS.
Some of the Things Which Could BE
Done with the Money Spent
for Drink

When a prohibitionist gets to talk
ing figures, the general effect is men,
tai blur. A prohibition orator who
cannot rattle off figures on the cost of
the rum traffic until the audience is
past telling whether two and two
make four or seven is not worth incit-
ing to address meeting. Neverthe-
less, the statistics just made public by
DIR. Swift, Methodist clergyman Of
the west, ought not to be confined to
the narrow circle where they were
uttered. Owing to the limited width
of this column, it is decided to omit the
general totals and stick to the COM
PARSONS. If the money spent on liquor
in single year weE9 saved it would
give to each of 10000 900 families four
barrels of flour, Is pairs of shoes, ten
suits of clothing, Il bushels of pota-
toes and 500 pounds of meat told style).
The drink bill would pay for all the
railroads in the United States once
in every three and one-half years;
would pay for all the farms in Illinois
in six months; wipe out all our nation-
al, SldCC, SouhlS anu W" IL uSDlS III one
year; pay for all farm animals in the
United States in ten months, and dupli-
cate all bank deposits in two years.
The cost of the rum traffic for a year

sions by all the churches of the coun-

Cry for n New Invention

Unless we learn to avoid waste in the
use of coal, says Prof. John Perry, the
world, in a hundred years or so, will
resemble a spendthrift who has run
through his patrimony. What is need
ed is some form of engine to convert,
as directly and cheaply as possible, the
energy of coal into electric energy.
Science, he believes, is capable of
achieving the desired result, but only
through united effort, supported by
large capital. He suggests that if the
expenditure of $5,O0OO0O year were
entrusted for two or three years to
such men as Lord Kelvin or Lord Ra-
leigh, the problem might be solved

Marks of Sin.

Sin sets its seal upon the human face
as distinctively as righteousness. An
article in New Orleans paper states
the fact that experienced barkeepers
can tell what a man drinks by the pc
culiar discoloration of his skin. There
is, it appears, a livery of whisky, of
brandy, beer, absintNe-each one do
ing its deadly work with strict indi-
viduality. In no little corner of the
creation is law imperative, whether
it be the law of life or the law of sin
and death. Could we but trace to it's
bitter end the destructive work of each
agency of evil we would doubtless find
even more distinctive markings in souls
than science finds in bodies.

BETTER THAN SMASHING
How One Woman in Kansas Dealt
with Her Drinking Husband and
the LaW-Breaking saloon.

An estimable young married lady of
a Kansas village waited until the small
hours for her husband, and he came
not. She could not stand it longer, and
rising, she dressed herself, armed her
self with revolver and proceeded to
saloon in the village, where her sus-
picions that her husband was there
were found to be well founded The
hayward husband had spent the even
ing and the night until three a. m. with
four or five companions in convivial
pleasures in the saloon, and when the
indignant wife marched into the place
behind a cleaning revolver barrel,
there was a startled party of tipplers
indeed. Straightway she commanded
her husband to leave the saloon and
go home. Then she turned to a man

take care of her? Sammy did not of
fer violence-no lion in his right
mind ever bares tooth against fe-
male of his race, unless to save his
own life. But he went behind and
pushed; and Mrs. Grundy slid off the
block to the floor.
Instantly Caesar, who had watched
the situation with rising wrath, leaped
from his block straight for Sammy's
throat. If he had found his flgrip,
the show would then and there have
been the loser by several hundred dol
lars worth of lion. But if gallantry
was not in Sammy's line, fighting
was; and before the trainer could
reach them they were at it nip and
tuck. The bone of contention got
back on the forbidden block and
looked on placidly.
Then a strange thing happened. In
the scrimmage Sammy found Caesars
ear in his mouth, and, naturally
enough, bit it. Caesar covered down
like a beaten hound, and Sammy,
nightly astonished, drew off. The
trainer promptly sent all three back
to their respective places.
But Sammy had unconsciously given
the trainer an idea; and the next time
the little premonitory tremor ran
over Caesars knotty muscles, the man
grabbed his ear. Again Caesar skunk
into submission, and after that the
solution of the problem was plain.
1t is safe to say that with not an
other lion in a hundred would such a
mode of treatment have had the
slightest effect.

When Your Eyes Ache.

Few people are aware what an
excellent tonic cold water bath il
for the eyes. Not the ordinary
sponge bath, with closed lids, but
opening the eyes and holding them
open for a minute or more in clear,
cold water. To do this take tea
cupful of water and hold it close
to the eye, against the face, and
the eye in it. Open and shut two
or three times, to wash out the eve,
then dry with towel.
Never rub your eyes; it is an ex-
ceedingly injurious practice, and
children should be warned against
it. If your eyes are weak, put a
pinch Of salt in the water.
70 relieve sty, wet compress
of old linen with boiling water,
and lay on the sty. Repeat every
few minutes several times, and do
this once an hour as long as may
be necessary. Good sight is
amongst the greatest blessings of
life, and 1t behooves all, for their
own sake, to take good care of
their eyes.
When you have nothing to do,
when you are simply resting, close
yonr eyes and let them rest also.
As long as the eyes are open they
are at work: aud aaealists will tell
you that the moistu of the closed
lids Is good for them. Never press
the eyeball, as that flattens it and
brings on premature loss OF vision.
