upon the grass, and in his dreams
some very funny doings came to

a chieftain with a spear. Wei

German Soldiers Life.

The German soldier is trained to
maneuver in all weather and at all
seasons. Extreme cold is, of course.
a great obstacle to the mobilization of
troops. Billeting is not always possi-
BILE and the alternative of sleeping in
tents with the snow lying deep on
the ground and the thermometer be-
low zero seems at first sight imprac-
ticable. Nevertheless. 1t has been
found that. with due precautions. the
men suffer no Ill effects from the ex-
posure. The tents used for this pur-
pose are very small, as these are found
to be warmer than the larger ones.
Indeed. the temperature inside the
canvass is generally ~ degrees higher
than outside to begin with. and. of
course rises when the tent is occu-
pied. Hot coffee is served to the men
at intervals of two hours throughout
the night.

TEACHING A SHEPHERD DOG.
How He Is Trained by the Natives Of
New Mexico.

NEW McSICo.
The natives of New Mexico seem to
have an original way of training shep-
herd dogs. A pup is taken from its
mother as socn after birth AZ possible
Uhe breed of dog Is immateriaD. The
young of sheep Or goat Is taken
away. and the pup is substituted.
After the first lew days the pup is
never fed except just before the flock
goes to pasture in the morning. and
Just after the sheep are brought in at
night.
AS soon as he can walk he goes out
with the fock and stays with 1t all
day. Whenever he begins to antici-
pate suppe, by trying to drive the
flock in before sundown he gets pun
ished.
After he is about year old he takes
a flock out, guards them from other
dogs and coyotes during the day, and
brings them in at the proper time at
night without supervision. All kinds
OF temptations can be tried on any dog
that is encountered in the hills with
his flock, but in spite of all he Will
remain faithful to his duty. driving his
flock to safe distance before ven
turing to make the acquaintance of
any other dog.

Cos. of Discarded War Material.

Some idea of the vast quantities of
discarded war material thrown upon
the general market by the successive
changes in armament adopted by the
various great powers may be gathered
from the list of arms now offered for
sale from this cause by the Italian
government. The list includes 600 900
rifles adopted SO recently as 1887, with
As, 900, 900 cartridges, 1.200 nine pound
era and 500 seven-pounder guns. with
2oO. 900 shells. and 40 seven-pounGer
mountain guns, with 1900 shells.

Training German Soldiers.

Workmanship for men of the Ger
man infantry, beginning with prelimi
nary instruction. comprises range fir
ing and lastly field or combat firing.
BY ingenious methods the advance of
reinforcements or the thinning of a
line of infantry or the advance of a
column of soldiers is simulated. Bal.
loon targets are used to represent
lines of sharpshooters lying in a
trench. Imitation keeps them erect
and when punctured by a bullet they
soon collapse, showing the firing line
that another enemy has fallen The
agility of sharpshooters is represented
by variety of targets which can be
made to pop up and down out of
trenches and behind embankments at
will. Other movable targets are at
tached to sleds and drawn over the
surface OF the ground by steam power
or by horses.

Persian Tea Seller.

The tea seller is very common
Eight in the streets of most Persian
towns. He holds in his hands two
large brass teapots. The larger is
full of plain hot water. the smaller
is full of tea. The teacups are ar.
ranged in narrow tray, which has
the look of wide. deep double belt.
This tea is prepared with odorous
herbs and has a very pleasant frag-
rance. The seller advertises his tea
loudly by crying in singing voice in
the streets: Hot tea, sv'Sss tea; tea
Of crimson color!"

To the housewife who has not yet
become acquainted with the new things
of everyday use in the market and who
is reasonably satisfied with the old, we
would suggest that trial of Defiance
Cold Water starch be made at once.
Not alone because 1t is guaranteed by
the manufacturers to be superior to
any other brand. but because each 10c
package contains 16 ozs.. while all the
other kinds contain but 12 ozs. 1t is
safe to say that the lady who once uses
Definace Starch will use no other.

Pictures as Educating Influences

There are the unimaginative ure.
motionai, matter-offact children. by
no means lacking in intelligence, to
whom pictures are simply more or less
comprehensive limitations of objects
which they never see, but about which
they hear, says Municipal Affairs.
Pictures increase the wealth of their
minds by adding to them new mental
images OF things which were before
represented only by meaningless
words. A child's horizon widens when
he can conceive, even indistinctly. of
the bodily appearance of a waterfall
farming scene, an historical char
tcter or an ancient costume or city.

EXAMPLE CT GERMAN THRIFT.
Stones on the Roadway Made Of vaI,e

to Property.
Germans find that 1t pays to encour-
age peasants to free their fields Of
stones the property rises in value
taxing value. The stones thrown
into heaps by the roadside are pur-
chased by the district road repairing
commission. Poor men, who other
wise would have to be supported by
the almshouses. are hired to break
the stones. and then are trained to the
work of repairing the roadbed. The
money to pay the mer is made by auc-
tioning of to the highest bidder the
crop from fruit trees that were plant
ed on both sides of the highway when
it was built, and which are nourished
well by the manure that falls along
the road and is pushed at intervals
by road tender upon their roots.
The purchaser of the crop sees to it
that his fruit is not stolen. The road
commissioners have no bother ABOUT
that. Ard, although the sale be by
auction, it brings considerable. Every
burgher knows how much because the
sales of highway fruit crops are pub
lished in the local newspapers.

TO GET RID OF MOSQUITOES.
Amusing Circular Issued by New York
Beard Of Health.

Amusing Circular Issued by New York
Beard Of Health.
The New York board of health has
issued circular in which all cases of
malaria are laid to the bite of mos
quitoes. Before going to bed" this
circular says, "one should kill all the
mosquitoes resting on the bedroom
walls, in the closets or under articles
of furniture" But how? The nights
are now short. Possibly an athletic
man might run down mos
quito and tie the critter till
its tongue hangs out and its
legs wabble. Then single well
directed blow on the point of the
mosquitoes jaw would settle its hash.
But some of us are not athletes. "The
insects already in the room are apt
to give the most trouble" the circular
says nDively. True! Too true! In
fact. the mosquitoes which are in the
bald-Aeaded mans fiat. three flights
up. never trouble lis in the least.

PETROLEUM AS BEVERAGE.
Medical Society of Paris Sends Out a
WARMING.

The Medical Society of Paris has
expressed the opinion that it is neces-
sary to adopt some measures against
the alarming spread of petroleum
drinking. At first It was thought that
this habit had sprung up from the in
creased taxation on alcohol imposed
by the French government. but an in.
vestigation showed that this was not
the case: the habit had been preva-
lent some time previously in certain
districts and had spread with great
rapidity. The victim of the petroleum
habit does not become brutal. only
morose. Opinions differ among physi.
clans as regards the effects of petro.
leum drinking on the human system,
but all agree on the harmfulness of
this new vice.
