SPURS ON IT'S WINGS.
The Kamichi, = Native Of South
America, IL One Of the StranGest
Birds in the World.

One of the most remarkable curios.
tiles in the world, probably, in the
bird line, is the kamichi, the wing OF
which is armed with spurs. This odd
creature is found in Brazil, Guiana
and Colombia, and inhahits the deep
est forests along the water courses.
This large, black bird is very re-
markable for the strength of its
voice, which has powerful and pecu-
liar cultural notes. 1T hears on each
wing two powerful spurs, and on it's
head a pointed horn, three or four
inches long. The two spurs on each

Ancient Lightning Conduc tors.

The ancients did not have lightning
rods constructed as ours are, but they
had lightning conductors, which
shows that they knew how to pro-
tect themselves from the danger that
lies in thunderstorm. Even so long
ago as the tenth century lightning
was diverted from fields by planting
in them long sticks or poles, on top
of which were lance heads. 1t is said
that the Celtic soldiers used to try
to make themselves safe from the
stroke during storm by lying on the
ground with their naked swords
planted point upward beside them.

DUE TO INDIFFERENCE.
Ascrlbetl to ExcekAive Frank
ness and Honesty.

Somebody has discovered that the
decadence in modern manners does
not necessarily denote our increased
brutality or absolute Indifference to
the feelings and needs of other people.
1t is balm to the soul to be assured of
this fact.
We have admitted to ourselves for
some time past that our manners have
not the repose which should mark the
caste of We're de We're, and that we are
indeed frankly discourteous to each
other. We also know that many men
are no longer particular how they act
or what they say in the presence of
women, and d. not even observe the
small courtesies of life where men,
bers of the opposite sex are concerned,
Men no longer hesitate to let woman
wait on them, or topush her aside in a
crowd, or to smoke in her face unapol-
ogetically, as if that were their natural
right. We certainly are less polished
and ceremonious than were our fore
bears.
Facing this fact, it is pleasing to be
assured that the change is not due to
seltishness, but is simply the express
sion of our desire to be honest, to avoid
shams. Therefore, if we sometimes
overstep the limit and cultivate I'M
pleasant freedom of speech and ac-
ton, manifest unrestrained rudeness,
we are to be excused on the ground
of our excessive frankness and hon

FISH WITH ALONG TAIL.

instead of laying its eggs in these, it
lays them in a dark corner. Both
parents guard the eggs until the
young fish are about to come .n1o
the world, and then they carefully
remove them to the holes, which are
already prepared, and which serve
the young ones as nests until they
are ready to make their own way in
the world.

From the south of Brazil, where it

ing fish. A few specimens were in.

ago, and careful study shows that
they have few marked peculiari-

cept that you were there and that

stopped talking to Amy, and was adj
dressing Aunt Lucy's back. II kissed

from England in 1884, being married
to Mr.. T. S. Garrett in the same year.
I was appointed postmistress at Rock
Creek in 1855, Rock Creek being then
a great freighting point. 1 was post
mistress for five years, moving on .
ranch in 1890, when established my
self in the stock business and stimuli
taneously established this town of
Garrett. I am now the postmistress
of Garrett.
my ambition is to do right ire
spectivc of political faith, and hope
to render justice to all who may
come before me in my new posi-
taon."
Mrs. Garrett is evidently woman
of advanced education. Being a prac-
ticed penman, or rather penwoman,
che will keep her own dockets, and,
possessing some knowledge of legal
forms, she will use that knowledge
to acquire more. A number of cases,
small but important to the litigants,
have already been continued from
the docket of the retiring justice to
that over which Justice Garrett will
preside, and it is apparent she will
have the opportunity very frequently
to bring into play any of Portia' 8
qualities she may possess.

The Latest Mind Theory.

There is a feminine and mascuIine
type of mind. The former depends
chiefly on memory and is reproduc.
tive. The latter relies on reasoning
and is creative. The mind of the man
of science is masculine, that of the
clergyman feminine. Not every wom-
an possesses a feminine mind, though
many men have little else.
