How would you like to have a crab
like this squeezing your toe when you
90 bathingl The gigantic japanese
crab, measuring twelve feet, is proba-
bly, the largest crustacean in the world.
The specimen is type Of the spider
crab. which inhabits the waters Of the
group Of islands forming the empire
OF Japan. The body portion is the size
Ut a hals bushel measure, while its
two great arms or "feelers" could cas-
lily encircle the figure OF a man. Its
eight arms or legs resemble huge
bamboo poles and are extremely elias
tic, and If strung into one line they
would reach TO the top Of four story
apartment building. One OF the ex-
traordlnary peculiarities Of this crab
is the faculty of assuming a disguise
by afixing pieces Of seaweed and
sponges 10 the body.

The following story, told by the
Washington Post, leads us to wonder
which TO condemn FIRST. the boaster or
his critics. 1t concerns a certain man
who has a large collection of auto
graphs.
Indeed, the envy and sometimes the
skeptlcism of his friends have been ex-
cited by the number OF successful au-
thors who have set down familiar and
flattering inscriptions in his books.
Some carpers have even gone so far
as to hint darkly at a similarity OF
handwriting throughout the collection.
He recently purchased a rare edition
of Chaucer, and one evening when a
party was gathered at the house the
precious book was passed from hand
TO hand. The owner lost sight Of it,
hut the next morning he found II lying
on his library table.
On the fly leaf was inscribed:
"To Jack ---. from his old friend and
scbOolmate, Geof. Chaucer."

1t is said that Horne Tooke, who ex-
celled in that duellike controversy ex-
hibited by two disputants when pltted
against each other with only the
breadth Of a mahogany board between
them, was exceedingly quick and sharp
at retort. When he made his most
deadly thrusts, it was with a smiling
countenance and without seeming eff
fort or emotion. Replying to man
who contended that only landowners
should be allowed to vote at elections,
he said, Pray tell me how many acres
does it take TO make a wiseacreT'
When asked by George III. whether he
ever played cards, he replied, II can
not, your majesty, tell king from a
knaye." What can be more uniquely
comic than his saying TO his brother;
you and |, my dear brother, have in
verted the laws OF nature. You have
risen in the world by your gravity, and
1 have fallen by my leyityF'-Saturday

OVER THE COUNTRY.

Reports by telephone to the Ard
moreite from over the Chickasaw Ma
tlon show the rain OF last night and
the past few days TO have been the
heaviest in many years. Travel
throughout the country is at stand
still, all streams being out of their
banks, only the oldest citizens having
seen the water so high. The cotton
crop is ruined as is also some corn.
Many miles Of fences throughout the
Nation have been washed away also a
few country bridges. Although no rail
road bridges on the Santa Fe have
yet been washed away. Several are re-
ported in imminent danger and may
not be able TO withstand the high wa.
ter which will continue for many days.

THE RAIN.

All former rain records for Arduore
have been smashed to smithereeni by
the November rains. Up to ~ o'cock
noon today the local weather observer
reports that ten inches Of rain has
fallen since November 1.
The llghtest rainfall was registered
on the Sth when only 12 inches fell
and the heaviest today which includes
the rainfall from o'clock Sunday
morning until the same hour his
morning which shows that PAS inches
Of rain had fallen.
The total rainfall at this place for
November is 10 inches. while In Fort
Worth only 522 inches have fallen.
Enough rain has fallen to wash on
vast quantity Of mud. and in some
portions Of the city the streets are in
excellent condition. In others. we'll
conditions are very different, Il being
almost an impossibility to get abng
even horseback. Yet, taken all to.

Even Dallas. where we thought streets
and sidewalks were of a superior quail

against a mud blockade. Travel on
her streets is virtually suspended and
retail merchants have been forced to
suspend the delivery of goods to their
customers. But for all this the sun
will shine out as brightly as ever, the
mud will vanish and the same old dry
and dusty season will roll around
again.

A woMAN's WAGES.

Director of Charities Cooley Of
Cleveland. Ohio. reports that the av-
erage cost of living in that city is
1924 a week for working women, and
that their wage is s4S3 a week. He
says that these conditions cause more
ruin of life than the things usually at.
tached by reformers.
There Is little doubt that Mr.. Cooley
is right and that Cleveland is only an
example OF large manufacturing cities
where this condition obtains. The
truth of the matter is that during this
era of prosperity wages for both men
and women have not kept pace with
