When a dog was unlawfully killed in
countries differing so widely as Ger
many and Arabia the owner of the ami
NAL used to be Unidentified in the fol
lowing manner: The dog was hung up
by the talk with the point of its muzzle
touching the ground, and the man who
had committed the offense was obliged
to pour over it corn or -four until the
carcass was completely hidden by the
heap. This heap then became the prop
erty of the man who owned tie dog.
In Syria there was Il specially ciiri-
GUS variation, for if it We're street
dog that was killed the flour was made
into bread and given to its fellows.
No doubt this arose from the value at
tached in those old parts to street dogs
as scavengers. BY the old Welsh laws
of Howell the damages for killing an
animal belonging to another were as
sessed in the same odd manner.

N5ilE and AppIes,

Though no one would think so from
looking at fluid glass of milk and a
solid apple, the percentage of solids
and water.in apples and in milk is al
most the same, apples being So per
cent water, and milk SO per cent.
There is more sugar in apples and
more acid in milk. A diet of both APP
pies and milk is one of the most whole
some and well balanced. The potash
contents of both are high. They are
the best for brain, bone and muscle
nourishment, and in their effect upon
the nerves they are soothing.
IN skinming milk the cream remov-
ed lessons the fat percentage, and for
older people or fat children the skim
milk is equally desirable, in some cases
better. In eating apples the Skin, too,
should be eaten. Pared apples are not
so nutritious, as the ash contents Of
the apple skin are valuable to the hui
man system.

Two Ikinas 81 Reading.

If we make tie pages OF our books
merely a sort CT pleasant maze in
which to set our minds to wandering
during idle hours we in reading shall
have acquired pastime that is usually
harmless. But there is vast differ
'ence between such way of spending
our time and the reading that teaches
us to think as the greatest and wisest
men ard women have thought. Words
stand in our, minds for certain ideas
or images. From what we read we
learn to make these plain or hazy, clear
ly drawn pictures or carelessly execut-
ed sketches, and thus our powers of
thinking are directly trained by our
method Of reading.-St. Nicholas.

The wedding Ring Finger,

The wedding ring was placed on the
left hand as nearest the heart and on
the fourth finger because that finger
was supposed to have it's own ''private
wire" lin the. shape of a delicate nerve)
to the heart. That finger, too, was call
ed the medicine finger, and the belief
was that by virtue Of the little nerve
it could detect dangerous poison if
simply inserted in the liquid. From
that belief the idea that wedding rings
the rings worn on that finger-had
special curative qualities had its rise
To this day wedding rings are rubbed
over an obstinate sty on an eyelid.

The value of New IDEAS.

The recognition of the value of new
idea in regard to>a business point is
leading employers to encourage criti-
cisms and suggestions from employees
in respect to the details of the bust
ness, thus utilizing their microscopic
view rather than depending solely on
the birdseye view which is taken by
the manager A friendly feeling re-
suits from this attitude, and the en-
ployee takes a deeper interest in his
work, developing his own capacity and
helping the business. To see his idea
carried out by his superiors puts new
life into him and adds new enthusiasm
to his efforts-Success.

Position In sleep.

According to DR.. Fischer of Berlin,
the most effective position of sleep for
obtaining intellectual rest is to keep the
head low and the feet slightly elevated.
Failing this, the body should at any
rate be horizontal, so as to irrigate the
brain WELL The habit of sleeping with
head low and feet high is, according to
the doctor, a remedy for brain troubles
and some internal maladies. 1t can be
adopted gradually.

A PICTORIAL DRAMA.
How Tweed Was Identified In Spain
by a Mast Cartoon.


No very strenuous effort had been
made to find Tweed, but it became
known at last that he was somewhere
in Spanish territory. AS early as Sept.
80 Mast cartooned the. boss as Il
tiger appearing from cave marked
Spain" Now, suddenly, came anoth-
er report-a cable-that one ''Twid'
Tweed had been identified and cap
tured at Wgo, Spain, on the charge of
kidnapping two American children"
This seemed a curious statement for
whatever may have been the boss sins
he had not been given to child stealing.
Then came further news, and the mys-
terry was explained Tweed had been
identified and arrested at Vigo through
the cartoon "Tweedle-dee and Tilden-
dum," drawn by Thomas Mast. The
sstreet gamins''-to the Spanish Office,
who did not read English-were two
children being forcibly abducted by the
big man of the stripes and club. The
printing on the dead wall they judged
to be the story Of his crime. Perhaps
they could even spell out the word ''re-
ward" in an upper corner.
Absurd as it all was, the identifica-
ton was fawless. Tweed, on board
the steamer Franklin, came back to
America to die. When his baggage
was examined it was found that he
had preserved every cartoon Mast had
drawn of him, save the few final ones
published after his escape, one of
