1914. The South African quagga dis
appeared about 1870 owing to the
slaughter by hide hunters. The twin

South Australia was also extermtnated
during the century, though It was

Shelley Liked Bread.

The poet Shelley was very simple in
his tastes and found his chief pleasure
in long, solitary rambles. Bread be-
came his chief sustenance when his
regimen attained to that auSterity
which afterward distinguished it, He
could have lived on bread alone with
out repining.
'Do you know" he said one day to
a friend, with much surprise, that
MFR. G. does not like bread? Did you
ever know a person who disliked
bread?' His friend explained to him
that Mr.. G. probably had no objection
to bread In moderate quantity at a
proper time and with the usual ad.
juncts and was only unwilling to de-
YOUR several pounds of dry bread at a
meal.
Shelley had no such objection; his
pockets were generally we'll stored
with bread. Sometimes he ate with
his bread the common raiSinS which
he bought at small grocers' shops.
