RATS IN THE BEARS DEN.

Crumbs from Table Of Polar
Monsters.

A visitor TO the Bronx roo saw a Gu.
rious sight the other afternoon In the
absence Of all other spectators. says
the New York sun.
Il vas half past four O'Clock and the
two polar bears had received their din.
Ter Of fsh. beef bone and long rolls
Of French bread They consumed the
ish and bread. and numbered up 10 tn.

the beef bones a. an after dinner rel.

Some little squeaks were heard b,
the visitor. Where the bears had late
~ been a large mother rat and ten
baby rats sourrying out from no
where. were Teasing upon the crumbs
Of French bread.
The ratlets eagerly dashed here and
there. seeking all the crumbs In sight
The mother acted more the part Of
sentinel. eyed disirustfully the lon,
spectator and admonished her brood
in deep.toned squeaks
The crumbs were all gone and IN,
babies complained TO their mother that
they hadn't had enough. She finally
led them up the rocky slope TO where
the white-coated monsters dozed be
fore their den.
The bears glanced down out OF hall
open eyes. but made no movement
against the small scavengers. who
pounced joyously on new crumbs ano
shreds of meai. II seemed as II tbs
bears we're well accustomed TO the
visits of Mrs. Lazarus and her flock.
The footsteps and laughter OF ap-
preaching sightseers suddenly caused
the mother rat to squeak a warning
and the next moment only the doing
polar bears remained In their cave.

lyric OF ACTION.

In the struggle lies the glory,
In the bearing of the burden
Up the painless promontory
Lie the glory and the guerdon;
In the rigor and the riot,
With exultant action teeming
Not in sitting snug and quiet.
Wasting days IN wanton dreaming.
For the glory's in the striving, ana the
guerdon's in the fight,
And the victory to the valiant who is gioVeo
and shod with might!
IT'S in battling toward the summit
Life achieves its best endeavor.
Is there hardship? Overcome 1t!
Drop the plummet, lift the lever;
Chain the sea and sun and planet;
Conquer nature, sullen, sodden;
Mine the gold and carve the granite;
Pierce with paths the wilds untrodden.
For. the glorys in the gaining, ana the
guerdon's in the strife,
Ard the joy of doing something is the robe
and crown of life!
Then with dolce far niente
Let's have done, but let's be doing!
There is waiting work a-plenty;
There are spheres for our subduing,
There are virgin wales for filling
There are fields of fertile promise;
If our hands and hearts be willing
Naught can hold the triumph from US.
For the glory's in the doing, and the guer-
dons in the deed,
And the triumph to the pioneer whose
pleasure is to lead!

INcoMBUSTIBLE cELLULolD
Inventive Genius of French Chemist
Widens Its Field of Use
fulness.

Celluloid, hitherto barred from many
uses because of its explosive qualities
has at last been made incombustible
through the invention of a French
chemist.
An ether-alcohol solution of cellu-
loid is made, to which is added an
ether-alcohol solution of perchloride of
iron. The two are mixed and upon the
evaporation of the solvents COM
pound having every property of cellu-
loid and which is not only non-inflam-
mable but non-combustible is obtained.
This invention should greatly widen
the field of usefulness of this modern
product, for celluloid is closely akin
to guncotton, and its use has been inn
possible in many directions on this &C
count. Now lamp bowls may be made
of the new product, and really un-
breakable chimneys are among the i'm
mediate possibilities.
Sheet celluloid already has displaced
glass in picture framing where the
frame is apt to be subjected to rough
usage, and now glass will be crowded
out of other fields.
