 The old idea of a tiger killing large game by a blow from his paw is non- sense; besides, in this country a tiger never faces his prey, but attacks him on the flank, unless charged. Anotn- CT curious fact that may seem very like a fairy tale, is that a tiger does not seem to mind a small lamp being tied over a kill about ten feet high, but will come and feed. I have known three occasions when this has been tried, and each time a tiger has come to feed upon the carcass.-London Field.

The skirt that makes the same effect at the back as at the front is one of the later developments of fashion and promises to have extended vogue. It is graceful, every generally becoming and allows of variations almost without number. This one is arranged to give triple box plaited effect with circular portions between that ripple gracefully and becomingly as they reach the floor. In the illustration the skirt is made in what is known as the round length, but it can be cut off to clear the ground if desired for street wear. The applied folds that give a tuck effect are among the favorite trimmings of advance model. but are by no means obligatory, as any banding that may be liked can be used, or the skirt can be

Why the Cabbage Was Stringy.

George Brown was very fond of cold
cabbage and one day, seeing that quite a
dishful was left after dinner, asked his
wife to save it for his salad at night.
About midnight George came home labor
ing under stress of heavy weather. Feel
ing hungry and thinking of the cabbage,
he asked his wife where it was. She re-
piled, Sin the pantry on the shelf"
Down he went, got the cabbage and ate
it all. In the morning his wife noticed
the cabbage where she had left it, and
asked George why he didn't eat it.
81 did," he said, "but didn't like it very
well; it was tough and stringy."
''But here is the cabbage" said his wife.
then with another look at the shelf, "Oh,
you have eaten go worth of lace collars
and cuffs that had put in starch; stringy
cabbage, indeed"

Bingen Colts Are Money Getters.
Are the descendants of Bingen money
winners? The returns from the Grand
Circuit in Lexington, KY, meeting GER
tainly seem to indicate that they have
been money winners the past season. The
summaries of those meetings show that
members OF the Bingen family won in all
1925. What stallion of his age fur
nished the winners Of a larger sum than
that? 1t is an excellent showing for the
progeny of a stallion that is only thirteen
years old. We do not recall any other

ever won a larger amount in single sea-
son, says the Breeder.

changes in Its tone from day to day The
conference was, in fact, at the outset work

by reason of these journalistic refiectors.
the public has been constantly speculat ng
upon the chances OF its ultimate succes,s or
failure. with a distinct tendency toward
pessimism from the start. At the end OF
the first month the prospect was very dis

said, about to quarrel over the police gucS-
ton All of this was antIcipatory, but the
people began to ask what would hqupen II
the conference broke up without reaching
an agreement and the diplomats them
serves commenced TO be impressed with The
Seriousness OF the occasion. The Gertnan
newspapers began to taunt the English
with servility to France. Then the French
newspapers tried to minimize the mischief
