Wild Animals In Captivity.

"Are wild animals happy in captiv-
ity?" said the keeper of the geological
gardens, in answer to question asked
by visitor. well, at first thought 1t
may sound strange, but they are hap
py. and some of them are very, very
happy.
1T seems to be the general opinion
that when the liberty of IN animal
used TO free life in the wild woods is
taken away the animal will pine away
and die. That's Il pretty bit of senti-
ment, but apparently it's all wrong.
You would naturally think that a wild
animal in captivity would become dan
gerous, but such is not the case.
Take the monkeys, for instance.
They look very unhappy, dOn'|ehey
Why, those little imps play from morn
ing till night. and they're as cheerful
as larks. excepting when they are ILL.,.
Go in the bird house and listen to the
songs. the chirps and triIls. then look
around for an unhappy bird. Watch
the bears play and the leopards and
other members Of the cat tribe roll
over each other like little children on
q nursery floor" -Philadelphia Press.

Brafn-FOOd Nonsense,

Another red'~'1lus food tad has
been branded by the most compe

pelled the silly notion that one
kind of food Is needed for brain,
another for muscle, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, Its nutri.
ment is destroyed by indigestion OF

A Blanket Battle.

Once at least the domestic blanket
has decided the issue of battle and
led to the complete rout of an army.
1t was generation ago, when the
Yakui Indians rose in rebellion
against the government of Mexico,
and the rebels were at last brought
face to face with the Mexican army.
When the Indians advanced to the
attack they sent in advance a cover
ing line of men carrying bulwark
Of wet blankets. In vain the Next
cans tried to destroy this barrier
with their bullets. Not a single
blanket was penetrated, and when
the Indians were sufficiently near
they emerged from their shelter
and, dashing at the Mexicans, put
them to ignominious flight.

Legends About the Moon.

"In Ceylon," says a historian, "it is
said that as Sakyamuni was one day
wandering half starved in the forest a
pious hare met him and offered itself
to be slain and cooked for dinner,
whereupon the holy Buddha set it on
high in the moon that future genera
tons Of men might see it and marvel
at its piety."
In the Samoan islands these dark
patches are supposed to be portions of
woman'S figure A certain woman
was once hammering something with
a mallet when the moon arose, looking
so much like breadfruit that the wo-
man asked it to come down and allow
her child to eat off a piece of it. but
the moon, enraged at the insult, COB
bled up woman, mallet and child, and
there In the moons belly you may still
behold them.

Curing an Insane Patient.

A patient entered the consulting
room walking backward, under the de-
fusion that his head had got a twist
round and that his face was turned the
wrong way. Instead of laughing at
him. as | expected, the doctor entered
into the case with the greatest gravity,
tapping his patients head all over,
looking into his throat and ears and
sympathizing with him. The patient
was at once won over and placed the
utmost confidence in the doctors assur-
ance that a complete cure would be ef-
fected in a few days, voluntarily ex-
ercising the greatest care in carrying
out the medical directions, which con-
sisted in elaborate nOthings to keep
the patient occupied.
A day or two afterward the doctor
met him with feigned surprise and con-
graduated him. ION what?' asked the
patient. Judge for yourself" replied
the doctor, handing him a mirror. The
man surveyed his corrugated counte-
uance intently for a few seconds, when
with the dawn of conviction there stole
a grin into his stern features. Thank
ing the DOCTOR he skipped out of the
room in a frenzy Of delight.-London

that he believed at the time It was neces-
sary to take the life Of his adversary to
save bis own or to save himself from Sc

TELEPHONE RENTAL
Orange County Telephone Co. Asked
to Accept Rental Of 81 In
stead Of so cents.

The city Of Barre refuses to grant g
franchise TO the Orange County Telephone
Company at license fee Of 30 cents, as
the company asked for. AT special meet
ing of the city council last evening IL was
voted to abide by the original offer Of 81
as license fee. AS the company says
that 1t cannot pay that license 1t seems
likely that the wires of the Orange County
Company will not be strung in Barre
The meeting was called to order by
Mayor jackson with all the members in
ther places.
Clerk Mackay read letter from the
Orange County Telephone Co. stating
that 1t accepted the franchise offered by
the city provided that the rental be 80
cents instead of 81.
Alderman Currier moved that the clerk
be instructed to return letter saying the
city would acc ept provided the rental is
81 Alderman Mckenzie thought the
city was acting fairly and the motion was
carried unanimously This Is somewhat
similar to the original franchise offered by
the city.
Alderman Currier reported that the
street commissioners needed to call for
an appropriation Of s., GOO for street ex-
penses and warrant to that amount was
ordered made out.

sion to place a sign and a small light in
front Of the building, signed by A. M.

sented, and the request was referred to
the committee of the whole to look the
case over as considerable was involved IN
the petition which needed inyestiga-
tioh
A city warrant Of 81 900 was read and
ordered paid. and then Alderman Nc
Kenze moved that the council 90 into ex-
ecutiye session as he had an important
matter to present.
After coming out Of executive session
Mayor Jackson appointed A. +. Dodge as
inspector Of wood, lumber and shingles,
and the appointment was unanimously
confirmed.
The fire committee reported that the Pc
titiOns Of o. II. Hale, A. @. Blanchard and
Mrs. Ella Reed be granted with certain
