THE GRAY SQUIRREL.
He Is n Genius at Hiding Nuts aud
Finding Them Again.

"One of the 0 familiar sounds Of
the summer woods Is the rattling bark
Of the red squirrel" writes an observ-
and there Is a great difference between
his angry bark, his cry of fear, the
%chattering monologue with which he
addresses an intruder Oh his domain,
the running fire of repartee which Is
the constant accompaniment of the an
tics of a pair at play and the long rat
Ting roll call which he utters appar-
emily from sheer enjoyment of the
sound or as a challenge to some I'M
seer enemy of his own tribe and which
~reverberates through the woods often
with sufficient force to carry the sound
for as much as half to three-quarters
of a mile. If we listen for an instant
when we hear one of these challenges
sem forth we may hear it answered
from some distant point so family that
we cannot be certain that it is not an
echo. Some other male has heard the
challenge and, detecting the self salts
fed note in it, has answered, and we
may be fairly certain that they are
Fastening toward each other, each with
the intention of annihilating his foe or
at least teaching him a lesson.
"Gray squirrels, unlike most of the
rodents, do not hibernate In the winter
time, but are abroad and very active
during most of the season. Their nests
are then in hollow trees, but they usu-
ally leave these retreats in March and
build airier and less vermin infested
abodes in the tree tops of leaves and
twigs. If you can watch a gray squir-
rel gathering nuts in the fall you will
see him take a nut in his cheek pouch
and hop along the ground, testing 1t
every few yards with his front feet.
When he has found a spot entirely to
his liking he will scoop out a shallow
hole and, placing the nut In it, will
cover it up with the loose earth. This
he will stamp down and restore to its
former condition by scraping the loose
leaves and small stones W. it.
This performance he repeats again
and again in that and other localities
until he has hidden away In this man.
ner a large quantity of nuts, one SPUR
rel often burying several hundred. In
the winter, as he needs them, he I'M
earths these nuts, and it is wonderful
how ~unerringly he can go to his vari-
GUS caches, even though, as frequently
happens, they may all be covered with
q foot or more of snow"

JAPANESE NEW YEARS.
A Day of Religious Rites and Spe-
ciaIIy Prepared Dishes.

A Day of Religious Rites and Spe-
ciaIIy Prepared Dishes.
To a deyout japanese breakfast on
New Years day is a religious rite rath-
err than a vulgar satisfaction of the APP
petite, says the London Chronicle. No
ordinary dishes are consumed at this
meal. The tea must be made with wa
ter drawn from the well when the first
ray of sun strikes ii, a potpourri OF
materials specified by law forms the
staple dish, while at the finish a meas
ure of special sake from a red lacquer
cup must be drained by whatsoever de-
sires happiness during the coming year.
In the room Is placed an 'elysian
stand" or red lacquer tray, covered
with evergreen leaves and bearing a
rich dumping, a lobster, oranges, per-
simmons, chestnuts, dried sardines and
herring roe. All these dishes have n
special Specification. The names OF
some are ~homonoymus with words OF
happy omen; the others have an allie
gorical meaning. The Holsters curved
back and long claws typify life pro-
longed till the frame is bent and the
beard is long; the sardines, which al
ways swim in pairs, express conjugal
bliss; the herring is symbolical of a
fruitful progeny.
These dishes are not intended for con-
sumption, although in most cases the
appetite is fairly keen. The orthodox
Japanese not only sees the old year out;
he rises at 4 to welcome the newcomer
and performs many ceremonies before
he breaks his fast.

Prejudice.

The word prejudice" m from
two Latin words. pro" or pre-" be-
forehand, and "judico," | judge. There
fore prejudice means the forming of
an opinion beforehand or before knowl-
edge. To form an opinion or declare a
judgment concerning any subject with
out or ignoring knowledge is ''preju-
dice" An opinion formed after a life
long acquaintance and experience and
after thorough investigation and study
may be erroneous, but cannot properly
be styled prejudice" When the teach
ing and { oeriences Of the world are
disregardel. when the facts of history
and science are ignored or denied. the
conclusions or opinions thus arrived at
must not only be mistaken, but they
must be the result of prejudice.

An Elastic statement.

The new reporter in his story of the
wedding, says the Baltimore Ameri-
can, wrote, 1.-THE floral display stretch
ed from the chancel rail to the doors of
the church."
The city editor in a mild manner, as
is the custom Of city editors with new
reporters, said:
Couldn't you have used a better
word than 'stretchedT Say the floral
display nodded or 'twined' or some
thing like that-some word more sug-
gestive of flowers"
Stretched is all right in this case,"
replied the ley reporter, with the
stubborn courage of a realist. "The
decorations consisted Of six rubber
plants, and they had to stretch to cover
the distance"

STRENUOUS BALZAC.
He Lived In n Frenzy of Toll and
Died Pleading For More Time.

Dieu IieuuInS fOr More I1Ene.
ITO be celebrated and to be loved
these were Balzae's two supreme and
passionate Desires writes Tighe Hop
kins, the English author. "He gave the
preference to fame and killed himself
with work if ever author did. His
books-each one of which. when he had
settled down to the Coincide HUI
maine,' he proclaimed a masterpiece
were a veritable obsession. We know
now with what ceaseless and almost
insane toll he brought them forth and
can see him wrapped in the monks
robe of white flannel, the big throat
laid bare. veins swollen, the great
black eyes aflame. agonizing over plot
and scene, supplicating and cursing the
phrase that would not come, sustaining
this through the days and nights of
three dreadful weeks at IA stretch in
the sealed and curtained chamber
where the candles were never eXtin-
guished. Then, livid. unwashed and
half clothed, he would drag himself to
the printers. Thus only in a nation
of stylists could he man that never
achieved a style make himself the first
novelist of his day and a classic.

inspired and seer-like periods. his
quenchless belief in himself and in
trepid faith in the future enabled him
to continue it, with a minimum of res

And what a bulk of work! From 1921
to 1894 he wrote thirty volumes, and

CANNON IN THE KREMLIN AND OLD HOME OF
The ROMANOEES. MOSCOW.

Among the interesting reHcs in the kremln, Moscow, are scores of French
cannon which were captured during Napoleons disastrous retreat in 1912. Mos
COW is also the home of the Romanofs, the family Of Gar Nicholas H. The
Romanofs aed descended from Andrea Romanof, who lived in the fourteenth
century. The family came to the throne through Mikhail in 1913.
