Those who in earlier times have
hunted buffaloes on the western plains
know to what extremes the buffalo's
anger sometimes leads. But the keep
ers of the animals in Van Courtlandt
park saw it themselves the other day,
when Cody, one of the buffaloes, be-
came dissatisfied with his surround
ings and decided to try to make a
change by showing the keepers and
other animals what lie could really do
when he tried. So really genuine was
his outbreak that the keepers feared
for the safety of the other animals,
and commenced at once to remove
them until Cody should have regained
his composure. In the course of
few moments he overcame the recol-
lections of his wild days on the plains
and again settled down to the quiet,
peaceful life of Van Corrtlandt park

HINTS AND HELPS.

Add few drops of ammonia to the
blue water to whiten the clothes.
Clothes turned right side out, care
fully folded and sprinkled are half
ironed.
Lace handkerchiefs should be
washed with CASTLE soap in warm wa
ter, in which are few drops of am
monia.
To remove old wall paper put into a
pail of hot water n quart of -four paste
and having stirred it well apply it to
the wall Being thick, this will not
dry quickly, but will saturate the pa
per, which may then be easily scraped
off.
To remove the smell of paint from
n room leave in it over night pail
of water with three or four sliced raw
onions in it. Shut the door and in the
morning the panty smell will have
gone, the onions and water absorbing
it.
A homemade knife board, consist
ing of a piece of board with linoleun
glued upon it, answers the purpose
admirably. If the linoleum be painted
the paint must be sandpapered of an'

Function of the Arms n Walking.

Function of the Arms a Walking.
1t is pointed out that, in walking or
running, the arms and legs produce a
"balancing" like that of the recipro-
eating and revolving parts of a loco
motive. The movements of the legs
react upon the trunk and tend to ro-
tate it, in alternate directions, about
a vertical axis. But the swinging of
the arms, each in unison with the op-
posite leg, produces an opposing me-
chanical couple, the effect of which is
to rotate the trunk in the other di-
rection, thus balancing, in part at
least, the rotating action of the legs.

LAWYER WAS PERSPlCUOUS.

Eloquent and Amusing Declaration OF
a Country Attorney in Ohio.
When Congressman Tompkins OF
Ohio was practicing law in his young.
er days in the buckeye state and was
winning his spurs he occasionally
found it profitable to accept a case in
Justices court in the country. He
tells the following story of the argu.
ment made by rural barrister before
such a magistrate.
The case was one in which the
plaintiff sought to recover damages
from a railroad company for the kill.
ing of a COW. During the course of
his argument the country lawyer
used this expressive sentence:
IF the train had been run as it
should have been ran, or If the bell
had been rung as it should have been
rang, or If the whistle had been blown
as it should have been blew, both of
which they did neither, the COW would
not have been injured when she was
killed."
Mr.. Tompkins does not state
whether the man recovered damages
for his bovine.
