spirits or not tonight. MY voice
is hoarse and I am not in the best
of condition, but 1 will try for you.
Who shall I can?"
Mr.. Zengel, shiYering with the cold.
replied in inaudible tones that he
didn't care hang, and requested
that Mr.. F'riedrichs make haste and
sleepy.
But the guide insisted His word
had been questioned, and he was go
ing to do his manifest to prove that
what he said was true He again re-
quested Mr. ZengeI to name the ghost.
taking any man, woman or little child
buried in that cemetery. and he
would try his best to raise him.
Mr. Zengel still refused, and re-
peated his request that his guide lead
him out.
Very WELL" said Mr.. Friedrichs
firmly. then I am going to raise the
devil himself"
Mr.. zengel protested feebly and
got as close to his guide as he could
for protection: but Mr.. Friedrichs
waved him off. and began to make
curious passes in the air with his
hands. His idea was to make as
good bluff at the thing as
he could, and pass it off that the
devil was not working that night, or
that he could not remember the
charm.
But here comes a third figure into
the story. On his frequent trips
through the graveyard Mr.. Friedrichs
often paused to chat with the sexton,
an old Irishman. fond of the blue
nosed bottle. On this particular night
the sexton had imbibed much too free
~, and was lying asleep on a tomb
stone near where the two adventurous
spiritualists were standing.
so Mr.. Friedrichs stood out in a
clear space, in the full light of the
moon, and. weirdly waving his arms
in the air. emitted a fearful sound, "a
sort of a cross" says Mr.. Friedrichs
between the screech of boot owl and
the scream of factory whistle. with a
dying gurgle thrown in" Three times
he emitted this awful sound, tossing
his arms in the light of the moon,
which shone full upon him. His COM
panion flattened himself against a high
tomb and shivered with terror.
And as ! made that awful noise
for the third time" said Mr.. Fried
richs, the moon suddenly went behind
black cloud. and it was all dark as
pltch' and the deep voice of the sexton
shouted, from Immediately behind Zen
gers tomb. i'm thick tones, and with a
blood-curdling accent, is that you, Mr..
FriedriChS ?'
We'll, sir you would have thought
Zengel was streak of black light
ming. and the last / saw of him that
night he was skimming so far over
the high brick wall that the wind of
his passing made the magnolia trees
above him shiver and shake.
That's how l made my reputation
as a wizard. I believe when Zeneel
reads this it will be the first time he
knew how II really happened" and
Mr.. Friedrichs ordered up the drinks.

Siberia, on the Russian and Turke-
stan steppes, in the Himalayas, in At
RIGA and in Australia.
1t is well known that wild camels
which had descended from domestic
camels that had been turned loose,
were to be found in some of the west
ern sand plains of the United States
until recent years, and occasionally
there are stories that herd of them
exists in Arizona.
The dromedary is the plains camel,
while the beast with the TWO humps
is the favorite for mountain use. In
SokOtora the latter camel climbs up
steep steps hewn into the face of the
rock, and in all places where they are
used as mountain climbers they are
almost as sure-footed as mules.
Prschewalski, the Russian explorer,
found wild camels in the worst noun
tain regions of Asia, in places so dan
gerous that the human foot could not
find a hold.

WIDELY SPREAD ANIMALS.

The three animals that are most
widely spread over the earth are the
COW, the horse and the pig. These an
imals did not spread through their
own efforts. but were developed by
man, and gradually rendered adapta-
BILE to practically every place where
man himself can live.
Cattle entered America simultane-
ously with its discovery, for Columbus
introduced Spanish steers and cows in
1893 In 1925 they were introduced
irto 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 the range-bred cattle of
America now.
The pig had its origin in India, and
its first conquest was that of Eastern
Asia and the archipelagos of the East
ern seas. China fell an early victim
to the love of the pig. Records show
that the cultivation of the grunting
porker was high art in that land as
long ago as three thousand years be-
fore Christ. One of the greatest of the
Chinese feast 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 varie-
ties of pig. due to local causes and to
different ways of breeding in differ
ent countries, as there are varieties
of horses and cattle.
1t has always been a matter of Won
der to naturalists and economists that
the camel did not become as widely
spread as any of these three animals
in the course of it's thousands of years
of existence as a domestic animal.
The camel combines the advantages
of OK and horse as drauEht animal
and burden carrier; it is of high food
value; it gives excellent milk; its de-
mands in the form of food and water
are exceedingly modest and it's hair
is Of great value While the camel
probably could not bear all the ex-
tremes of climate that the horse or
the COW can bear, it is by no means
difficult animal to acclimate, as is
shown by the fact that it is used as
draught animal in the colder parts of
