The volume of business was in the
July delivery and that option showed
the greatest loss.
The weakness in wheat was the
! dominating influence in the corn mar
1 ket. There was active selling by
commission houses and although
shorts were fair purchasers the de-
mand failed to check the declining
tendency until the market had de
veloped a decidedly weak tone.
Oats were easier in sympathy with
other grains and on a light volume OF
trade. There was considerable liqui
dation OF May and that delivery
showed the greatest weakness.
The weakness in grains brought out
considerable profit taking In provi
sions, resulting in an easier tone. Gov
ering by shorts checked the declining
tendency after small losses had been
made in all profits.

Now get a piece Of very stiff plotting
paper and from it cut a strip two
inches wide and about foot long.
On each end of this put a drop of
molasses or syrup.
Now balance the strip of blotting

two players, although one viii do.
Each player chooses an end of the
paper In a moment a fly will alight
on one end, attracted by the syrup,
and that end Of the paper will go
down a trife. Then another fly will
light on the other end, or perhaps sew

AS more flies come, alighting on the

The Rat and the Dove.

There can be no doubt that strong
attachments are formed between ami
mails, and that they are capable OF
emotions OF pity and acts OF generos-
ity. not only toward their own kind.
but even toward creatures OF another
species.
A gentleman who had a great mum
her of doves used to feed them near
the barn. At such times not only
chickens and sparrows, but also rats
were accustomed to come and snare
the meal. One day he saw large
rat I'LL its cheeks with kernels OF corn
and run to the coach house, repeating
this performance several times. On
going over to investigate, he found q
lame dove eating the corn which the
rat had brought.
Such an action on the part OF human
beings would be looked upon as a
charitable desire to relieve the neces-
stiles of a helpless cripple-and we
must also so consider 1t in the case
of the rat.
