GERMAN G.EANlNGS.

Girls dressed in a smart uniform are
selling butter and cheese in the streets
Of Berlin for a new company.
Owing to the Berlin hansoms having
rubber tires. complaint was made OF
danger to the public. and they have
now been supplied with bells.
Bismarck's monument for the new
Berlin cathedral has at last attained Its
final shape. The Iron Chancellor is to
be represented as a German knight OF
the middle ages.
The latest addition to the German
language is the word "knusperchen,'
meaning a little thing that can be nif'
bled. This is the word that has JUS,
taken the prize offered by some Ger
man educational society for the best
translation of the noun "cake."
When Strousberg, twenty years ago,
suggested that Berlin should be con-
verted into a seaport which the largest
steamers could enter he created a
sensation, but nothing was done. Now.
in view Of "the American danger
which threatens German commerce,
the Tageblatt refers to the carrying out
of that scheme as IAN unavoidable ne
cessity."

The Waits OF tho OSTRICH.

The dance of the ostrich is one Of
those peculiar native customs which
certain fowls develop, without any ap-
parent incentive except 1t may be the
law of heredity. 1t usually occurs at
early morning, when the young, strong
birds are let out Of their Enclosure. and
is said to be entirely due to awkward
ness and uncertainty. This leads them
to advance and turn in dervish-hke
whirl which is very quaint and fantas.
tic, as they float about assisting their
motions by their outspread wings.
They circle and reverse almost az q
walter would, and when large num-
Der of these strange birds 60 through
their dancing antics it is almost i'm
possible to believe that they have not
been taught the accomplishment by a
dancing master. Their waltz often
ends in disaster, as they break each
others legs, which is certain death, or
become dizzy and fall down in de-
moralized heap. The kick Of an Ostrich
has been known to destroy life.

Long Miles OF Gi1ghnm.

Some conception OF the rate Of pro-
duction of the ginghams, sheetinss and
other textiles for which Manchester,
N. H., is famous may perhaps be gain
ed by an illustration, says Albert S.
Cnugh in the National Magazine. If
the output OF its factories were sewed
together as produced into single con-
tinuous piece and its end were attach
ed to the stern of departing ten day
transatlantic liner, Manchester's busy
looms and spindles and its $4,000
skilled operatives could "pay out" the
cloth as fast as called for.
Manchester could make cotton Cir
die to encircle the earth at the equator
in over a week less than the eighty
days which Jules Verne imagined as
requisite for his traveller to circumnav-
igate it. Its daily output is $50 miles.

The Nose.

Use the nose to breathe through and
not the mouth. In winter and spring
particularly must this care be taken.
II the mouth is kept open large drafts
Of cold air rush directly In upon the
lungs, chilling the body almost In
stantly. II the mouth Ii kept shut the
air can reach the lungs only BY the
circuit of the nose and head, and 1t be-
comes warmed before reaching the
lungs. 1t is asserted that the reason
the American nose is becoming more
and more narrow Is owing to the repre-
hensive habit of breathing through the
mouth rather than following the tnten-
ton Of nature.
Botha's Remarkable Escape.
Among the interesting stories told by
Lord Roberts is the following: Com
mandant Ben Botha told me when in
London a few months ago that on one
occasion during the war he did not
retreat with the rest of the Beers, but
slept the night of May 90 in Germsi
ton, within a few hundred yards Of
where | was sleeping, and that he was
only able to escape the next morning
by joining one Of our mounted patrols
and passing himself off as colonisl
in our employ. That is Il difficulty W.
always had. 'rhe Beers could come
and go in our camp without our know
Ing who they were. as we had many
people Of the country in our employ
Botha actually joined one Of our pa
trolls and rode with him to the top Of
the hill. when he galloped off and join
ed his own people again"

our First Railway.

The first American railway-not
built for steam cars, however-was
made to haul Quincy granite for the
Bunker Hill monument. That was in
1926. 1t was three miles long. The
first railway built for steam cars was
the Charleston and New Hamburg line
in South Carolina. This was for some
time the longest line in the world, 13I
miles.
The first locomotives weighed three
to five tons. An imported English loco
motive weighing ten tons was too
heavy. Twenty-Five engines of that
day would make one Of today Fifty
years ago q train load Of 200 tons was
heavy. Now loads Of 1900 to $500 tons
are handled.

The Lfnes In Ones Palm.


Square or spatulated fingers in the
science of palmistry denote the philo-
sophical and practical temperament,
taper fingers signify an artistic tenn
permanent and very pointed digits are
q sure sign Of the dreamy, psychical
nature. Much is learned by the general
quality and configuration Of the lines
which cross the latter. The life line
running around the base Of the thumb
denotes long or short life, good or Ill
health, according as it Is long or short,
clear and unbroken or otherwise. The
heart line, running across the palm
nearest the base Of the fingers, sig
mites the quality Of the possessor's
emotional nature. also the kind of love
she Will give and receive. This will be
enduring or temporary according to
whether the line be long and clear,
forked or crossed and chained. Below
Shhs is the head line, which indicates
Ss@ mental and moral qualities and
acbeYsments and deficiencies.
the line Of fate runs perpendicularly
across the middle Of the palm and is a
very important factor in the happiness
or unhappiness Of its owner. 1t should
be clear and narrow, unclaimed and
uncrossed by the fine wrinkles which
score so many palms, and 1t should
never come to an end on the line of the
heart, since this signifies disappoint-
ment in love. A cross on the mount OF
Mercury" which is just at the base
of the fore or index finger, is an unfai1-
ing sign Of happy marriage.

Bright Possibilities

The spring opens with bright
possibilities of continued and In
creased prosperity In all the pro-
ductive industries throughout the
country. Especially Is this true
with respect to the agricultural In.
terests In all Its various ramihca-
lions. The growing of the various
cerial and root crops, the rearing OF
cattle, hogs and sheep for beef, ba'
con and mutton; horses for all pur.
poses and mules for draught and
burden. And the dairy and
poultry yard should not be
neglected. The United States has
long been regarded as the granary OF
the world, to the extent that when
there Is a scarcity or famine In
other sections, the longing and
furnishing look to as to supply the
deficiency. Now that the Russian
Japanese was Is on In earnest, with
possibilities even probabilities
of other nations becoming involved
there Is no danger of q glut of pro-
dxce of any kind, with every acre
of available land In this country
taxed to Its utmost capacity of pro
duction. Wheat Is now $500 per
bushel, and will no doubt be $3.50
within.the next twelve months
with other food products following
In Its wake.
AS a people we get the reputa'
ton of being under constant tension
In the race for the almighty dol

ready at the limit of that tension,

thereto. Our people, we doubt
