INSECTS THAT MAKE BURs.
Something About the Cunningly Con
structed Home Of a Fly, Known
as Rhodites Eglantina.

or course you do not expect to see
chestnut burs on a wild rose bush, but
occasionally, IL you are an observanr
boy or girl, you will discover some big
round, green growth surrounding the
stalk of the fragrant sweet briar, that
on account of their dense covering OF
spiny "%prickles" look very much Ike

resemblance ceases, for instead OF a
shining trio OF fat brown nuts, you VIII

in are curled up, each mite in a COM
partment of Its own, a number OF small
white larvae. They secure a SUFFICIENT
amount of nourishment from the walls
of their tiny chambers, which are COM

THE AWAKENING OF RUSSIA.
Startling Signs of a New Spirit of
Freedom Are Becoming More
Numerous.

In Russia it is the government only
that sleeps. The people are awake and
astir, says the author of Greater Rus
STA" They are making new demands
and feeling a new freedom which is ap-
parent every day in the absence Of the
former rigid repression. and in the fire.
quent indulgence in license that is mis-
called liberty.
One will sometimes see on the palace
quay in st. Petersburg a line of people
waiting for the steamer to take them to
the islands. Along comes some high Of
fetal who, instead of awaiting his turn,
drives to the head of the line and crowds
in ahead of the others. Formerly such
an occurrence would have been received
in silence as a matter of course. but now
the people hiss and d%enounce the official,
and police do not interfere.
If a street car is delayed for a connec-
ton at some transfer station. the pas
sengers often become riotous and de-
mand their fare back, or begin to pound
on the floor and ever break windows I'M
til the police make the driver go ahead
without waiting for the other car; and
he is not allowed to stop again until he
reaches his destination.
If an officer demonstrates with a
street-car conductor for lack of courtesy
to a passenger the crowd will at once
interfere. and even the offended passen-
ger turns on him. The officer is told to
give his orders to soldiers who have to
obey. not to free men who do not. and
not to interfere between men who are
as good as he is.
These are trifling things in them
selves, says the traveller. but to one who
has long known Russia they are startling
signs of a new spirit of freedom.

BIG DOG ATTENDS H
Follows His Little Master Every Day
in Spite of Objections Made
by His Teacher.

Whoever heard of a dog going to
school?
In PawtucKet, r. l., there is a dog
that has been attending school for a
couple Of years. His name is Prince
Turner.
He goes to one of the grammar
schools.
He Is a Newfoundland dc8-a big.
heavy fellow-but his mannSxs and his
disposition are perfectly gentle.
Does he break the t@ies? Not as
often as his boy companions do. In
deed, his department grade is very
high.
Prince Turner belongs to a little boy
whose name Is Willie Turner, and
when he first began bringing Prince to
school the teacher objected.
But her objections did no good, for
Prince was determined to come with
his little master.
For a little while he was as awk-
ward as a bull in a china shop; the
aisles were so narrow that sometimes
he had a tight squeeze to get through.
And then in his good humor he
would switch his tail back and forth,
which sometimes gave the children a
smart slap in their faces.
After a bit, however, he learned how
to get along very nicely in the school
room.
Princes regular place in the is
an open space in front of the teachers
desk.
Occasionally he rises and moves quiet
ly about the room, stopping now and
then to let some boy or girl give him a
pat and a hug.
At recess time in the morning and in
the afternoon he rises and marches out
with the children and takes his recrea-
ton with them, and then marches In.
One day, however, Prince had a little
errand to attend to at recess time and
wandered farther away from the school
yard than he expected to. When the
bell rang at the close of recess he did
not hear it. The teacher noticed that
prince was not in line 50 she opened the
window and rang the bell a second time.
W
This time Prince heard it and trotted
straight back to the yard and found his
place in the line.
One time his master had misbehaved
and was sent to the principal to be pun
ished. Prince somehow seemed to real
tze that his master was in trouble, so
what did he do but march into the prin-
cipal's room-the door had been left
open-plant himself beside his master
and look dangerous.
The principal did not dare to punish
the boy until the dog had been removed.
Perhaps some of you boys wish you
had a dog around to protect you when
YOU have misbehaved and are going to
be punished.
Prince would like to go to Sunday
school, but the superintendent has not
yet made up his mind that it would do
to let a big dog in. So the poor fellow
has to wait al the door until Sunday
school is over and Willie comes out

Elsie Explains Her Drawing.

Illustrating some song with which they
were familiar. After considerable la
Dor one of the children came forward
with a sheet of paper covered by de-
lightfully cabalistic designs. The
composition of the picture consisted
of three rude buckets, ranged in or

well, and a series of dots and spots
made with the point of a pencil. What
is this?" asked the teacher, pointing
to the first pail. That" said the
young artist, lis the old oaken bucket.

JUST WHAT ALLIED NERO.
His Master Thought the Dog Had
Rabies and Dosed Him
Accordingly.

A gentleman who resides in German
town Is the proud possessor of a fine,
white, thoroughbred bull terrier. He
also has a wife and child. This fact is
mentioned last, not as derogatory to the
family, but because this tale deals al
most wholly with the dog, says the Phil
adelphia Press.
One evening the gentleman noticed
that Nero was rather restless and fire.
quently opened his paws to their widest
extent and licked his chops in a decid-
eddy suggestive and sinister manner
What in the world ails Nero?" asked
the wife.
Some new habit he has acquired, /
guess" hazarded Mr.. Fancier. Good
night, dear, / must hurry to the Office
to finish my monthly statement. Don't
wait up for me. Good night" And he
was gone.
When he arrived at the Office he saw
the night Waterman and knowing that
he mad a knowledge of dogs questioned
him regarding Nero's peculiar actions.
"Opens his mouth wide and rolls his
tongue about::" repeated the Waterman
excitedly.
Yes"
Does he stretch his neck as he does
this?"
Yes. What does it mean?"
We'll, it means that your dog is go
ing mad and you'd better hurry home be-
fore he does any damage"

to reach the telephone.
us that you, dear?" he called. We'll,
you take Nero down cellar and chain
him up securely. Never mind. I'll ex-
plain when | get home. I'm starting at
once"
He then fastened to the nearest drug
store and purchased buckthorne, castor
oil, p~omegranate bark and various other
herbs and sirups used for dog troubles.
Rushing home, he bOlted into the cellar,
grabbed the poor dog by the throat and
pressing him into a corner lifted him to
his hind legs and poured a conglomera-
ton of drugs down the long suffering
canine that would positively kill or
cure. His veterinary labors over. he re-
paired to the sitting-room and explained
the situation to his terrified wife.
Next morning the dog, marvellous TO
relate, was alive and happy. During the
day the owner described the treatment
to a friend, also a lover of dogs. The
friend, at the end of the story, burst into
loud and Earring laughter.
What are you laughing at? / don't
see anything funny about it"
Neither did the poor cog. Do you
know what really allied him? I'll tell
you: He had been cleaning his Goa witk
his tongue and several hairs had stuck
to that useful member. His terrible
symptoms were caused by his innocent
ly trying to remove them"
And the owner of Nero. after buy

Argument for Metric System.

In a recent report an agricultural de-
partment officer expresses regret that
the statistics of milk production are re-
ported in gallons, since milk is sold more
generally in quarts or in pounds, &C.
cording to the use to which 1t is put. The
gallon he regards as an unnatural unit.
One argument for the metric system is
that it would provide absolute units.
Now We often know that a quantity is

The Curious chinaman.

What a very curious person the
Chinaman seems to us. When he meets
a friend he shakes his own hand, not his
friends. He keeps out of step when
walking with anyone. He puts his hat
on, instead of taking it off, when he
wants to be polite. He whitens his boots
instead of blacking them. He rides with
his heels instead of his toes in the STIR
rups. His compass points south. Often
he throws away tho fruit of the melon
and eats the seed london News.
