Ii is fact well within common
knowledge that boys, when worthy of
the name, have an instructive aversion,
uneonquerable by anything less vn-
reasonable than force, to baths and
even to thorough washing of their
hands and faces. They consider these
rites unnecessary and uncomfortable,
resent them as grotesque waste of boy
hoods precious time and avoid the per
Torrance Of them as often and as long
as they can. This popularity is easily
enough explicable on vhe theory that
the child passes through the develop
mental stages Of his race and while In
the savage or barbarian stage has the
aptitudes and repugnances of savages
and barbarians. But quite as much as
the boy hates baths he loves to go in
swimming, which by the Oldsters is
also called bathing. That cracks the
theory all to pieces and leaves the mys-
terry right where 1t was before. Nobody
has marked the hour when bathing for
the civilized human ceases to be tor
ture and becomes pleasure, but certain
ly it is well beyond boyhood.

Facing the Camera.

When the wise ones go to be photo
graphed they resign themselves wholly
to the photographer, who pays as
much attention to every detail of pose
as would famous portrait painter.
At rare intervals women send some
picture sometimes 1t IL an illGstra-
ton from book or magazine-that they
have taken Il fancy to ahead of them
as suggestion; but, as rule, they
express few definite desires as to their
poses. The photographer studies his
subjects from every point of view, ac-
eentuates their good points by many
interesting devices, eliminates their
less favorab BILE aspects by others equal
ly so-in short. devotes himself to
them for the time being as If the ell
tire universe revolved only for the
benefit of the anticipated result. Wom-
en- often pose as long as two hours,
during which time they have frequent
ly been photographed in as many as
twenty five different attitudes.

The Ease of Normal Deatn.

According TO a scientist, the immedi
ate cause of death in all but very eX-
ceptional cases, such as accident, Is the
poisoning of the nervous centers by
carbonic acid, which accumulates In the
blood owing to the failure Of the ar
rangement for its removal This gas
is an anaesthetic," he explains, land
has, indeed, been employed as such
both locally and otherwise. This prop
erty of carbonic acid may be termed Il
merciful provision of nature. Normal
death is painless occurrence, usually
preceded by gradual loss of conscious
ness entailing no more suffering than
going to sleep. The accumulation of
this merciful gas often induces muscu-
lar contraction or spasms, which are
preceded by loss of consciousness, but
which may have suggested to uncritical
observers that their moribund subject
was in agony.

Is the Buzzard a Fraud?

DR.. Charles Keane, state veter-
marian of California, declares that
buzzards do vastly more harm
than good that they are partlcu-
larly injurious to cattle interests
because they act as conveyors OF
dieease, especially anthrax, black
leg aud hog cholera. DR.. Keane
intended to prepare bill for sub
mission to the California legisia
ture repeating the supposed state
Inv protecting buzzards, but it WIS
ascertained upon Investigation that
10 such law exists. and lbst iuz
card protection Is II matter OF local
option with the county authorities
The buzzard population of Louis
lana is quite large, aud the uu'ove-
ly bird has long been regarded as
an invaluable coadjutor Of our state,
parochial and municipal public
health departments, because of It's
services as Il scavenger; hence It
would seem to he in order to have
an authoritative scientific inquisi-
ton instituted with "A view of de IL
nitely determining II the repuia-
ton hitherto enjoyed by this foul
mouthed fowl Is really unJeserved,
and that Instead of being public
benefactor the carrion- eating Great
ure is fraud and a sham--a pest
bearing peril rather than an orni-
biological sanitarian.
Even its most partial friends
and defenders will not claim that
the bnzzard is ornamental. III the
allegation that it lacks usefulness
as well is established, the mat
tractive bird ought to go, and that
quickly. -Donaldsonville Chief.

Queer Matching Processes.

The Chilean frog, known also rs Oar
wins frog. is unique i'll its method of
Matching eggs. The female is not alb
normal bat the male has Il large pouch
which uuderli2S its Whole body and is
connected with its mouth by two open
ings. one on either side Of its tongue.
When his mate has laid her eggs this
devoted parent takes them into his fore
paws and places them inside his mouth,
whence they presently pass by the two
passages into the eXpcctant pouch.
Here they remain in warm and safe Sc
cluSion until they are Matched and
emerge as newborn tadpoles to the
light. The breeding habits of the mid
wife frog are not less singular. He
winds the strings of new laid eggs
round his hind legs and vanishes into
convenient hole till they are Matched.
The Surinam toad places eggs one by
one in hexagonal cells formed in the
back of the mother toad, whence in due
time they hop out, not tadpoles, but
perfect toads.
