One morning early in 1909 an old
pioneer emerged from his log cabin.
Before him stretched the Atlantic
ocean and behind him the high office
buildings of New York and Phila-
delphia shone in the last rays of the
westering sun. Suddenly from the
waves there appeared three big round
heads. Long tusks protruded from
the jaws.
'Walrus!" exclaimed he, "as sure
as Napoleon was licked at Waterloo"
as the brutes galloped up the beach
toward him.
He FASTENED into his cabin, seized
his gun and fired seven shots as fast
as he could pull the trigger. The

the hippopotamus. 1t sometimes is
thirty or forty feet long, and has a
huge jaw that can take In at one
gulp horse or a man. This horrid
reptile used to be considered sacred
by the ancient Egyptians Sometimes
the crocodile was tanned, ornamented
with gold rings and precious stones
set In It's ears and bracelets ON its
feet. II was then set up for the wor-
ship Of the people, who would feed it
with cake and baked meats and wines.
1t seems strange, does it not, that any
one could worship such a frightful
looking god? Probably it was be-
cause the natives of Africa held it in
such terror that they wished to
appease It.
There seemed to be one thing that
did not dread the crocodile, and that
was little bird of which Herodatus
and other ancient writer's tell us. 1t
would hop in the cocodle's huge jaw
when 1t was lying on the shore asleep
and feed with its bill on the debris
within the terrible teeth. Herodatus
persons have tried to discover what
bird 1t really was. Some think it was
a wagtail or sandpiper, while others
believe 1t to be kind of plover, or the
sic-sac, or crocodile bird Modern
students have found. however. that
there really are certain birds which
nave this habit OF going safely into
the crocodile's jaws.

of one OF the bachelors here, to his
CONSERVATION and dismay, he found q

Woman Just Dead in Iowa Who
Played With His Children.
Perhaps the last person in the world
who could claim to have known init
mately Sir Walter Scott died 1t Wood
bine, Iowa, a few days ago, a y the
New York Herald. She was Miss Mary
Bogie, aged So years at the time of
her death.
Her father, William Bogie, vas with
Sir Walter for fifteen years, first as
gardener and afterwards as a sort of
business man and agent.
Miss Mary lived at Abbotsford down
to the death of Sir Walter in 1882, and
her people remained two years after
ward before migrating to America.
The stern little old Scotch lady never
married.
She played as a child with the chill
dren of the great Novelist, and espe-
cially loved Anne, the favorite daugh-
ter, while despising, with equal cor
diality, Sir Walter the younger, whom
she declared a cad and a scamp.
She had a childish friendship for
ACAh NlOOlNs LnC lllon pOGls WIZ uoCQ
to come to visit Sir Walter, but never
ceased regretting that twice when
Lord Byron came to Abbotsford to
visit the author of "Waverly" she
was away and did not e him. There
was a long and interesting train of
these young poets who came to the
castle at Abbotsford for advice and
always got it.
Miss Bogie in her later life had been
a careful student of Scott and his life
and writings, and her collection of
relics, papers, ETC., is believed to be of
great value. 1t will probably be do
mated to the Iowa Historical society.
Miss Bogie's collection includes au-
tograph notes written by Sir Walter
to her father, her mother and one to
herself and a number of notes and let
tiers written by Anne Scott.

Divisions of the Drama.

Mrs. Cragie, better known to novel
readers under her pen name of John
Oliver Hobbes," has just come for
ward with a new dramatic ganeraliza-
ton, though she frankly admits that
in stating it she is but the self-ap-
pointed mouthpiece of a small girl of
her acquaintance who frequently ac-
companies her theaterloving parents
to the play. According to this nine
year-old authority all drama is to be
divided as follows:
Tragedy is where o wear fancy
dress and get murdered.
"Just plays is where you're like
other people and die of illness or COM
NIT suicide.
And comedy is where you go
through with a great deal and yet
live."-New York Times.

The Desert Shower

A cloud crept up DER the desert;
And none was there to see;
To long for the spray on that desert way,
Or pray its waters free.
No herb lay parched in the burning
To crave the cooling shower;
No withered blade, to bless its shade,
Nc eager, upturned flower.
Beyond, in the land of verdure,
Broad fields all thirsty lay,
And they sent a cry to the arching sky
To swing the cloud that way:
I'VE have fruits and grain that languish;
The desert needs you not.
She will drink your rain and will nothing
gain.
Cloud. shun the cursed spot"
The cloud swung low Ger the desert,
Nor heard the green fields call,
But upon the sand of the thirst-cursed
land
1t let its waters fall.
The sands, as the fields had uttered,
Drank deep of the potiGn cool,
Save one stony spot which drank 1t not,
But saved a tiny pool.
Next day a fainting, thirsting man,
Lost on that desert plain,
Voiced to the air a woe-fraught prayer
OF agony and pain.
And 10! his prayer was answered,
For there, just at his feet,
His life to save, the boon God gave,
The pool of waters sweet.

Good substltute for lobster.

A Damariscotta, Me-, man proposes
to save the lobster from extinction by
providing a substitute, This he finds
n the crabs which swarm the Maine
coast. This c%rustacean has not been
popular in the past solely. we are told,
because of the labor necessary to get
the meat from the shell. The Maine
man is going to put the meat on the
market "%shucked" and claims that the
present high prices of sea food makes
his work profitable. The lobster will
receive the benefit in both a decreas-
ed demand for lobster meat and in the
removal of the crab which consumes
much valuable lobster food.

cows Brave DEFENSE Of Fawn.

During a heavy rainstorm Wednes-
day one of Mrs. Lawson's COWS came
home without her calf, only two days
old. Yesterday the mother COW was
grazing when there appeared a beauti-
fdl little fawn, chased by three
hounds. Thinking, perhaps, it vas
her lost calf, the cow went to its res
cue, as the little fawn was nearly run
down. In the struggle for the posses
sion of the fawn between the dogs and
the % two of the dogs we're killed,
while the third was so badly wounded
it left the field of battle.
The COW brought the fawn to the
stable yard, and now tenderly cares
for it, nursing it as if it were its real
mother. 1t will be allowed to run at
large and will be raised with the cat

eourd Centuries Old.

Mrs. Elan, an old Cherokee woman,
living near Rose, Indian Territory, is
the owner of a gourd which, if ira
dition is correct, has been handed
down from generation to generation
in her family for nearly 400 years.
The family tradition says the gourd
was raised in the "a 1916 in what is
now Ohio, but, however that may be,
it is very old in any event, as it has
been in Mrs. Elam's possession for
forty years, and was esteemed an an
cient relic when given her. 1t is not
a large gourd, and is a very dark red
color and as highly polished as an old
violin, though Mrs. Elan says that nc
polish save age has eve been ap-
piled to it.
