PHOTOGRAPHIC PEACOCKS
Procedure of the Artist Who Makes
the Gaudy Birds His
Speciality.

The peacock paced the green lawn
before the house of white marble, and
the photographer had his costly camera
ready, but the bird would not spread it's
tail, relates an exchange.
Out of his overcoat pocket the artist
took two strips of cherry-colored silk.
Taking peacocks," he said, lis my
speciality. | use this silk to make them
spread their tails with
He and the gardner then pursued the
peacock over the lawn wildly. They
caught it at last. The gardener, kneel-
ing, held its legs, and the photographer
bound its feet up in the cloths of cherry
colored silk. In the process both men
got several ugly nips in the face.
Now, then" said the photographer
rising with grunt of relief, now he'll
spread his tall
And, indeed, no sooner did the pea
cock become aware of the handsome
trappings on it's ugly, scaly feet, than
a great complacency manifested itself
in its strut, and the birds tail gradually
began to spread
Up with her! Up with her!" he
called, focusing busily through the
fine German lens.
And in little while the tail was
spread in all its superb splendor and
the photographer made some beautiful
photographs.
At the end he said explanatorily:
"Peacocks are very conscious of their
exceedingly ugly feet. They think OF
their feet great deal, and at such
times they feel too humble and good
for-nothing to dream of spreading theil
tails. Now and then they forget their
feet and let their tails go up. But
this is rare Cover their feet with rec
cloths, though, and their tails go ur
all the time. A peacock only spreads
his tail when he is pleased with him
self and nothing gives him more pleas
IRE than fine red cloths upon his hideous
feet"

MICROBES IN WHISKY
i.---l-e Germs, It Is Said, Produce
Fusel Oil in the Red
Liquor.

Nearly 20 years ago the diseases OF
Wh!s y, wine and beer were brought tC
the attention of the great PaSteur, says
the New York Press, who put his Wig
orous nina 10 WORK 10 learn what were
the causes of fusel oil, sour beer and
vinegar cider. He discovered that ma
ture intended we should have from the
natural process Of fermentation a soft
Ire vine that would not go sour, a
cIG1r that should be like champagne
and never be vinegar, and a whisky
that sho3ld contain practically no fuse

- Produced by diseased germs. whereas
il aithy ones produce pure alcohol.
After many years Pasreur was able
70 find on the grape. pear or other fruit
the healthy microbes which produce
pure alcohol. These he gathered in
separate tanks and with the increase
made a ferment that has given in
France nearly perfect wine. Very lit
tie whisky is drunk in France, but Pas
teur disciples have discovered that
when the ardent spirit is treated with
pure or healthy microbes it becomes
aged almost at once; that is, instead of
having to be laid aside for five or ten
years 10 get rid of the fusel oil, the
elimination OF the oil by means OF the
healthy microbes is equivalent to five
or ten years of aging.
The process Of aging whisky IS so
expensive thai the cheap producer and
cheaper retailer have sought all kinds
OF combinations to make pink ele-

can only be made with chemicals which
will Kill germs, and it happens that
the slaughter is most terrific among
the germs in the stomach which are
necessary for the digestion of our food.
The death of these not infrequently
results in the death of the person swal-
lowing the chemicals It is the activ-
ity Of the stomach micrObe that causes
n yearning for food or gives us what
We call appetite. Men who drink on an
empty stomach all sorts of bad whisky
hardly understand the deadliness of
the habit. Topers who live long al
ways take a bite of something with
each drink.

OLD BAcKWOODS SCHOOLS.
Interesting "reminiscences of an In
diana Lawyer, a Pupil of Sew
enty Years Ago.

Curious and interesting details con-
corning the earlier years Of American
educational life come now and then to
the surface, says Youths Companion.
When l went to log cabin school
down in Harrison county, said an elder
ly Indiana lawyer, I'VE had no regular
reading books, or readers as they are
now called. | learned first to read at
home, by the log cabin fire of pine knots,
lying on my breast on the floor, with my
elder brothers, pouring over the gro
tesque print and hair-raising pictures Of
Davy CrOckett's almanac. In school
afterward, when we got older, we read
from the Life of Daniel Webster Life
of Daniel Boone and the New Testa-
ment.
Every child who came to school had
to bring reading book Of some descrip-
ton. When my wife first went to school
she carried a small dictionary. Some
of the older scholars laughed at her for
bringing dictionary. and this wounded
her feelings so that she returned home,
and did not go to school again for six
weeks. When 'Murray's English Read
err came into vogue, all classes alike read
from it; and small boys who should have
been in the Primer stumbled painfully
over the big words, but could not under
stand them.
Grammar was almost unknown terri
tory then; but when it came into the
log cabin school curriculum l did three
days work On mans farm to earn
money enough to buy myself Kirk
hams Grammar
Before | was 20 years old myself
was log-cabin school teacher. My pu-
pills all brought Testaments to read in
The print was too fine, therefore trouble
some-and l bought the school McGuf-
fey's Readers with my own slim earn
ingS.
In 1848 first saw blackboards in the
schools of larger settlements, then went
back to my own school and had one
made. 1t consisted of boards planed
smooth, nailed to the wall, and painted
black. This curious innovation was
hooted at by my pupils, large and small,
duu CAME W my SC0OOl one morning
to find the door broken in, and my
precious new blackboard chopped into
kindling wood. My hair was red in those
days. l had another black board made
at once, and told my school that if it was
destroyed l would shoot the person who
did it, if | did did not find him out for
ten years. This sufficed; the blackboard
was not molested.
''In those days, when a boy began to
cipher, as they then called it, he was
given broken piece of slate, with piece
Clipped off the corner for a pencil. |
never owned any other kind of slate. My
first 'ciphering,' or figuring, as it was
also called, was done on our rough,
wooden log-cabin f1oor-a puncheon
f1oor-by cutting marks with my jack
knife. The problem was this, which l,
a quite small boy, heard my big
brother and another boy trying to solve:
How many heads, tails and legs would
IL dozen dogs and no-tail pup have"
My answer proved correct; and my
father, who was then the log-cabin
teacher Of the district, decided that If
could do SO well 1 was big enough to quit
play and go to school,"

forger succeeded in getting $50 from
one Of our merchants, but when the
check was presented as deposit Mr..

In the Congo Valley,

A popularity of the southern part OF
the Congo valley is that one side of
the hills is usually bare, the other COW
cred with thick vegetation. This diff
ference is due to the fact that one side
gets little moisture while the other is
dampened by fogs blown against it ev-
cry morning, The natives often shave
off the hair from one side of their
heads, the effect presenting the same
appearance as the hills of the coun-

Reasons for self-destruction are often
very curious. Men have been known
to put an end to their lives to escape

disease has been known to affect the

has destroyed himself rather than face
it. WEAKNESS of money and good things
to eat have been the cause of suicide as
