Mosu uitOes and Sounds,

A doctor, writing from Port of Spain,
Trinidad, to a medical journal. tells Of
his experiments with mosquitoes. He
says that one of his childish amuse-
ments when playing with his compan-
ions in the early evening was to strike
a note that would attract the insects.
As he remembers, the most alluring
sound was a continuous "oo," sung in
q medium key, which was quickly
changed to "ah" in a lower tone and
dwelt on in the same way. The effect
on the mosquitoes was magical. Their
singing would quickly increase in VOL
ume, and they would Immediately at
tack the faces of the children, who,
strange to say. enjoyed the sport. But
the mosquitoes did not enjoy it long,
for their love Of music afforded an ex-
cellent opportunity Of killing them.

A HOmely Axiom.

"Do not bite off a bigger piece than
you can chew is a homely axiom that
it is safe to heed and which expresses
in language more forctble perhaps than
elegant vital truth. But although we
all know the misery Of undertaking too
much, of having more care upon us
than we know how to manage, why is
It that we, over and over again, place
ourselves in this uncomfortable posi-
ton? How easy It would be to gauge
our powers and our purses at their
right values and act accordingly if we
only wouldn't 1t is forever the same
old story.
We stupidity pile up burdens upon opz
shoulders that are absolutely senseksA
but that after time weigh as heavily
as Sindbad the Sailors Old Man Of the
Sea. In nine cases out of ten people
live beyond their strength and beyond
their income and what a waste of vital
power that means, what depression
and carking care!

SSN1lian Grass.

In Sicily there is a wild grass which,
when ripe at the end of summer, is
gathered by the peasantry, tied in bun
dies and set on fire, not, however, to
be consumed, but for mere scorching.
The flame flies rapidly through the
light husks and beard of the plant and
leaves the seeds slightly roasted, in
which. state they are eaten with con-
siderable relish by numbers of the
rural population.
The botanical name of this Sicilian
grass is Rgilops, or goatseye, the
Greeks having believed it to be rene
dy for disease that appears in one
corner of the eye. There are three or
four species growing all around the
Mediterranean as. well as in the is
lands, chiefly on the hot, dry, sandy
plains near the sea. They flourish
even on the scorched volcanic soils, in
strange contrast to their arid and bar
ZEN surroundings, showing that the vi
tai principle in them is unusually ener-
getic and proof against extremes of
heat. -. " i"

A friend once took reformed gam

to remarks rejecting, upon the. past
life of the gambler. The man who had

g1ze for introducing him into a place
where he would hear himself abused.

CRASHED into HOG. CAR

Lester Iowa. .'' = =

The morning passenger from the
south arrived here two hours and. a
half late as result of q wreck near
Lester, Iowa, last night. By some
mistake stock car, loaded with hogs,
was switched onto the main track, just
before the passenger reached the, sta
ton. Before it could be s topped the
passenger crashed into it and doubled
it up. It is reported only five. hogs
were killed, the rest escaping without
any serious injuries. None Of the
passengers were hurt, and after q de-
lay of two hours and a half the Jour-
ney was continued. 1t was necessary,
however, to get q new engine, ae the
pilot of the passenger engine was con-
siderably damaged. Had the train
been running at full speed at the time
of the accident, q bad wreck would
undoubtedly have been the result. AS
it was, the passengers we're only
shaken up little and those that were
asleep at the time, found themselves
on the floor upon awakening, ore man
relating that he was doubled up be-
tween two seats before he could real.
ize what had taken place. The trair

Excursion from Benson.

The Great Northern will run spec
ial excursion train from Benson to
Spicer on Sunday, Aug. %. This is
done to comply with request that
has been made by the people living
along the Benson line of the Great
Northern. The only way the Benson
ties have had an opportunity of en-
joying Sunday at Green Lake has
been to come down here on the four
O'Clock passenger and wait until the
excursion train left Wi1lmar. The
Great Northern people have not found
themselves able to run any train from
Benson to Spicer, but will do it this
once so as to give everybody who
wishes it an opportunity of seeing the
beauties of Green Lake before the
season is closed. Arrangements for
attractions are already being made,
among which are two bali games. It
is expected that the Benson band will
accompany the excursionists and
favor the people with musical selec-
tions. Full particulars will BE pub
lii shed as soon as everything has been
arranged. - as 49,: :T> .,'

Peary viii Try AGAIN.

The possibility of reaching the north
pole has again commanded the atten-
ton o fthe world through the deter
mination Of Lieutenant Robert E.
Peary to make another attempt to
solve the problem to which to has Civ
en- so many years of his life. Three
years leave of absence has been grant
cd to him by the navy department.
Mr.. Peary's plan is to sail next July

structed wooden ship with powerful
machinery and force his way to the
