Why the Horse Heed. the Dueler.

An Interesting report regarding the
development of the musical sense in
horses was made by committee Of
German biologists and botanists. The
report says: 1.-THE Investigations as to
the musical sense of horses have shown
that that sense is very poorly develop
ed in these animals. 1t has been prov
ed beyond doubt that horses have no
notion whatever of keeping time to
music, and that Mt circuses they do
not dance according to the tune. but
that the musicians have to keep time
according to the steps of the animals.
"Other Investigations show. That
horses do not understand military
trumpet signals. 1t Is only the rider
or the animals instinct of imitation
which induces horses to make the
moves required by the signal. but no
horse without rider however care
fully trained, takes the slightest no.
! tice Of trumpet signal. and the same
observation has been made on large
number Of cavalry horses without
| riders"

pirating Foley,s Honey and Tar.

Foley & Co., Chicago, originated
Honey and Tar as a throat and lung
remedy, and on account of the great
merit and popularity of Foley's
Honey and Tar many limitations are
offered for the genuine. These
worthless limitations have similar
sounding names. Beware of them.
The genuine Foley's Honey and Tar
is in yellow package. Ask for it
AID refuse any substitute. 1t is the
best remedy for coughs and colds.

Eel. In scotland.

Although cells abound in Scotch wa
tiers and are caught in great quantities.
they are not considered fit food there.
No matter how plentiful and how very
fine and large they may be in any dis
trict of Scotland, no native will eat
one. The objection to the eel is said to
be based on Its serpent-like appearance
and the fact that 1t is not overfastidi-
GUS us to what 1t feeds on. Tons OF
choice cells for the London market are
taken from streams that are not con-
spicuously free from sewage.

GETS CLOSE
Bowling Leaders Lose and
 Drop to Rear

The contest at Elks' Club for the Kern trophy, representing the three-men team club championship, IS becoming very close. The challengers, Flaharty, Simenstad and Barnes, who had won four of the six games previously played lost three straight games last night, and as a result take second place in the match. The cup defenders Barragar, Murphy and King, now have 3 games to f for the challengers.
 The features of the bowling last night, probably, were the high scores made by Barragar, who averaged l9+, and the hard luck which attended Flaharty, Barnes and Murphy who had more than their proper allotment of breaks.
 The record of the games bowled last night is as follows:
