Cats Used as MESSENGERS,

In certain town in Belgium they
have trained cats to ruin messages,
after the manner of carrier pigeons,
only that cats go afoot. 1t Is new
way to keep pussy out of mischief and
give her something to do instead OF
catching birds. There is very en-

must be more gentle in Belgium in
their treatment of cats than in most

The Alaska "Musher" Explained.

The New York Sun recently under.
took to throw flood of light on the
slang used by the miners at Thunder
Mountain. 1t says:
"Oftentimes the man making his
first trip into Thunder Mountain is
called 'musher,' because he takes
all kinds of cereal and mushy foods
with him. This word has come down
from Alaska"
"Mush" comes from an Indian word
used on the Yukon. The fact is that
some OF the first white people in the
Northwest Territory were French
Canadians, who cried to their dogs.
''Marchons" (walk. or get on). Drivers
who did not understand French cor.
rupted the "Marchons" to ''mush on"
the "on" being still in general use by
dog drivers calling to their teams.
From ''mush on" comes the verb ito
mush" and the noun "musher."-

HAD TO DRAW THE LINE.
Confidential Clerk Not as Smart as
He Ihouaht He was.

A story is being told of a certain
confidential clerk who formed the
wicked habit of running out from his
business each morning at II O'Clock
to partake of glass of rum. Not
being very proud of this. his daily
habit, he asked invariably for a few
caraway seeds that he might chew
them and under this bushel hide his
alcoholic light. For years and years
this habit went on, and he apparently
escaped detection. On one occasion
he found that at his favorite hostelry
there were no caraway seeds. SO he
was compelled to put up with a beau
tiful spring onion by way of bushel.
Presently he returned to his desk and
went on with his work. his employer
sitting at the desk opposite. Soon
the employer noticed something. At
first 1t was family perceptible. but
presently it became less agreeable.
Look here he said. i've stood rum
and caraway for twenty-five years.
but l draw the line at rum and
onions"
