even the Mig Fellows from the PoiaA
Regions Delight In a Feast
of the "Goobern."

All bears appear TO like peanuts,
whether the beasts come from the south
ern regions, where the peanut grows.
or from the mountains or the frozen
north, where the peanut is quite un-
known. II the taste for peanuts is not
implanted In them naturally they ae-
quire 1t very readily. as Is shown, for
example, by the grizzly and the polar
bear In the menagerie In Central park.
The big grizzly comes TO the front Of
its great cage In the bear den. and thrusts
It's nose between the bars and opens It's
cavernous mouth, thus aflording 70
visitors an opportunity Of indulging In
the sport Of throwing peanuts down lie
throat This is a pleasure that appeals
chiefly TO children.
But those who try II don't always sue
ceed In tossing the peanut into the bears
mouth. There Is a railing in front Of
the cage that keeps the people at lit
tie distance. and the children's fear 10
likely 10 make them nervous. and SC
their aim Is uncertain. Therefore, the
peanut may hit the grlzzly's nose instead
Of going straight into It's mouth, or Il
may bit one OF the bars Of the cage and
fall outside on the stone In which the
bars are imbedded.
But when the children throw more
peanuts and when they have thrown al
they have. and have seen the grizzly cal
all Il caught. they have another sigh
waiting for them that plesses them more
II possible than It did 20 see the beaI
catch the peanuts in It's mouth.
When no more are coming TO Il, th'
grizzly lifts one Of It's big paws and
i thrusts Il out between the bars as far Al
Il can reach on the stone ledge. an'

only suggestion Of cri,iclsm In the en-
tire report IS the reference to the fall

the expressions that clearly SHOW that
there was no lack Of bravery on the
part Of the men and their leaders. It
seems that the Japanese attack ON tho

Wants Town Meetings,

The Friend, the recognized organ
OF Central Union church, advocates
the township scheme OF popular
government ia place OF the moro
comprehensive county system. Its
arguments are logical aud il its ideas
could be put into effect would
doubtless prove ss desirable as any
thing yet suggested. In most OF the
States both the county and town
ship system are employed. The
scheme, however, costs o great deal
OF money, necessitating an immense
incresue in the rate Of tsxation.
What 10 wanted here is Q dscentPali-
zation Of power aud the investment
OF authority in the people, where it
rightly belongs. Whether this oh.
ject can best be attained through
county government or municipal
government is a matter that can on.
ly be proved by experience.
