STORY OF eLooDED BULLS.
Famous Lawsuit In Mexico over pea.
Animals,

The Supreme court of the nation
has rendered its judgment in the now
famous case of the bulls of the Mar.
ques del Saltillo. The marques is
no more. but his widow runs the
noted stock farms in Spain from
which come the finest of all fighting
bulls. Last year she sold eight of
these bulls for fighting purposes in
Mexico. The price was 10000 pesetas
per bull, and a stipulation was made
in the contract that if they were not
killed in the bullring they would be
executed as on no account must they
be placed on stock farms. This lat
ter she considered an ignoble fate for
the superb animals but If destined for
that purpose they should have pur.
chased at 10000 pesetas head.
Now instead of being fought to
death in the arena they were put, it
is alleged on the stock farms of Pie
dras Negras and Tepeyahualco. The
representative of the maquesa secured
from the superior court of the State
of Tlaxcala an order for the return
of the bulls. On an appeal to the
district court of the same State this
decision was overruled and then the
marquesa's representative took the
matter to the superior court of the
nation. The latter has ordered that
the decision Of the superior court be
proceeded with and the bulls return,
ed to the marQuesa.

A ROBIN STORY.
How the Bird Became a Soldiers Pet
and COMPANION,

TOW tne BIRD Became Soldiers Pet
and Companion.
To Lieutenant-colonel W. H. Smell
I am indebted for very pretty robin
story. The robin had her nest in 4
pocket OF the stonework of a Gothic
archway in his garden, and he set
himself to tame her. with such sue
cess that within few days the bird
would come at his call of Pretty
dear" and take meal worms from his
fingers.
In time the bird summoned suf1-
cient couarge to perch on his knee,
and by gradually drawing her further
and further from her nest, he at last
got his robin to follow him into the
house.
There" he says, "she would perch
on the mantelpiece. fender or table,
and after while she seemed to miss
me, and call for me if l were not In
the garden.
About that time took a.eold, and
was Obliged to stay in bed. My wife
used to tell me that the bird seemed
to be in distress, and was fitting
about the garden calling for me.
But one day my robin found an
open window at the top of the house,
and entered 1t. l was aferward told
that she visited room after room, and
had been doing so for some time,
when, one morning, the door of my
room being open, she heard my voice,
and few in. She came on to my
bed and began. If may so describe
1t, to fondle me with her beak.
THE intimacy thus established
grew closer and closer, and whenever
l was in the garden my little friend
was not far off She even seemed to
know when was about to leave
home, and would follow me up from
bush to bush, finally setting on the
wall. and bowling her head repeatedly,
as though saying. Goodbye"
Colonel Smell tells me that the
Goodbye has been long said now;
but do not wonder at his statement
that "the sweet lovability of the lit

membrance. p. w. D. lizard, in the

WHERE KISSING is UNKNOWN.

How People Of Different Lands Elk.
press Feelings of Endearment.
A caress. a kiss, kindly touch are
supposed to be signs of love every
where, while frown expresses dis
pleasure A study of the psychology
of peoples shows that the kiss is
only one expression of affection.
There are places where kissing is I'M
known. this mode of expression he
ing only supplemented by caressing
with the hand, the nose, the tongue,
clapping of hands and various en-
braces.
Western civilization holds the kiss
as the kindest expression of endear-
ment. Paolo Mantegazza, the great
Italian psychologist, says: Fear, re-
ligion, interest, space and time may
separate lovers, but the kiss they
have exchanged will hold them to-
gether." For all this Darwin assures
us that kissing is unknown among
the Malays, the jewellers of the
Friendly Isles. the Andamans, Fue-
CLANS, the Taitians, Papuans, Austral-
ians and the Somals of Africa.
The Malays express their feeling of
endearment by touching noses. They
say much tenderness is expressed by
bringing the noses in contact. They
believe it is by the nose we breathe,
and the bringing of the noses in con-
tact has the same influence on the

with their lips. but they said: mo,
no, the soul is not in the mouth"
| The Andaman islanders also refuse
to hear of the joys of kissing. They
rub noses occasionally, but it is Gus
tomary for friends to greet each other
with the eye. When a husband is
away and returns home, he shows his
Joy by sitting with his arms about his
wife's neck, and they weep and howl
as If great sorrow had befallen
them. Suddenly, by some unexplain-
able reason, their grief turns to Joy.
The man then calls on his other rela.
tives and goes through similar per.
Torrance.
African husbands never kiss their
wives. They would consider this a
too familiar expression of devotion.
A Mandigo wife meeting her husband
who has just returned home throws
herself on the ground as token of
greeting. In Loango the women
kneel, and as they rise they clap
their hands.
The Dahomians greet their hus-
bands with wonderful dignity: they
PROSTATE themselves, throw sand on
their heads and never think of rising
until their husbands make the COM
mand. The Tongans are more siren
uous in their expression; they tear
their hair, and even beat their
breasts.
But the New Zealanders prefer to
believe that the soul has it's nearest
approach to another soul through the
nose. After long absence the hus-
band gives vent to his joy in the
tangi-a bitter crying and moaning
spell which transforms itself grad
ually into merry laugh. In Poly
nesia, when husband becomes DEM
onstrative, he strokes his wifes face
with his hand or foot. The Austral.
ian holds his wife by the neck and
pats her on the back.
