THE EFE1cAcY on PRAYER.

during the civil war. a Presbyterian
brother offered this prayer:

bcundless goodness; for this rich and

women and valiant men. We thank
Thee that we are fully able to take

ANIMALS MOST WIDELY SPREAD

Wherever Man Lives are Found
Horse, Pig and Cow
The three animals that are most
widely spread over the earth are the
COW, the horse and the pig. These ami
mails did not spread through their own
efforts, but were developed by man,
gradually rendered adaptable to
practically every place where man
himself can live.
Cattle entered America simulta-
neously with its discovery, for Colum-
bus introduced Spanish steers and cows
in 1893 In 1925 they were introduced
into Mexico, which offered ideal con-
ditions for them From Mexico they
spread into Texas, where the new con-
ditions of range and feeding developed
a race of cattle that became known as
Texas cattle, and these animals are
typical of range bred cattle Of America
now.
The pig had its origin in India, and
its first conquest was that of eastern
Asia and the archipelagoes Of the
Eastern seas. China fell an early
victim to the love Of the apig. Records
shows that the cultivation Of the
grunting porler was a high art in that
land as long ago as 5000 years before
Christ, One of the greatest of the
Chinese feat days is known by the
name Pig"
The Koran forbids the use of pork,
just as the Mosaic law does; hence the
pig is not raised In countries where the
Mohammedan law rules. But in all
other parts Of the world the porker is
as popular as the. COW Or the horse;
and there are as many varieties of pig,
due to local causes and to different
ways of breeding in different coun-
tries, as there are varieties of horses
and cattle.

ALExANDRA's MANY CATS.


To all except the favored few who
are on intimate terms with Queen
Alexandra It came as rather sur-
prise when on her arrival in Ireland
awhile ago. the queen was found to be
accompanied by a pet cat. Heretofore a
dog of one breed or another almost in
variably has been numbered among her
travelling companions. and It was
known generally that besides being
fond of bow-wows, she bred them ex-
tensively and was the owner of about
the most luxurious kennels in England; |;
but she never has been suspected of any
special liking for cats. Now, however,
these animals have almost entirely sup
planted dogs as recipients Of the
queens attention. Her kennels were
the royal ladys delight, but when she
discovered that all sorts of folk were
copying her in this direction, she decided
to stop breeding dogs and go in for cats
instead. True to her customary policy
of thoroughness, the queen now has a
small army of the best breeds, and If any
of the royal residences contain mouse
thescreature must be veritable DeWet
Of Its kind.
The queen has six particular favorites
among her cat family, but a valuable
Persian enjoys her special affection.
