A DYED BEARD,
1t Probably Changed the History of
the Whole Human Race

1t Probably Changed the History of
the Whole Human Race.
The most striking case in history of
the Importance Of trifles is furnished
by the story of Musa, the leader of the
Moslem host which won from Christen-
dom in three and half years domin-
ions which it took the soldiers of the
cross twenty generations to win back.
He had red beard. This was trifle.
Musa, though very great general,
was a very vain man, and he dyed his
beard black. This was another trifle.
One of his captains chaffed him on the
subject, and Musa forthwith had him
stripped and scourged. For this, at
the very height Of his conquering ca
reer, Musa was recalled by the caliph
and disgraced. This made it impos-
sible for him to command the Moslem
army at the battle Of Tours, on the is
sue of which, as all historians agree,
the destinies Of Europe and perhaps of
the whole human race depended.
1t Is almost certain that If the genius
Of Musa had replaced the incompetence
Of the half dozen tribal leaders whose
Discussions made victory impossible

hands from the west to the east and
inclosed Europe in their grasp.-Lon-

The American Chameleon.

The American chameleon, small liz
ard (Anolis carolinensis), inhabits vari'
Gus parts of the southern United States.
The little animal has the remarkable
habit Of quickly and completely chang.
ing its colors, varying from brown to
yellow or pale green. It's food consists
Of insects. The little animal is perfect
~ harmless to higher forms Of life, Is
often kept as pet and has been worn
attached to a chain as an ornament.
The toes are provided with adhesive
pads, which enable the lizard to run
upon smooth vertical surfaces. - St.

The First Knitting Machine.

Historic mention of hand knitting Is
first found in the books of the time Of
Queen Elizabeth, though it Is known
that It was one Il the arts Of the Pom
peiians. The first machine for knitting
was the invention Of one William Lee,
who made application for patent in
England In 1889. On being refused a
patent by the English authorities he
forthwith departed for France and
soon afterward set up large factory
at Rouen. The Lee machine, which re-
main~- the same as it was 200 years
before, was introduced in the colonies
during the Revolutionary war. A
sharp Yankee improved on it and set
up the first United States stocking
factory at Cohoes, N. Y, in 1882.

The Fixing Lizard of Java.

The curious little animals known as
flying lizards Oraco volans) are only
found in Java, and their strange ap-
pearance is supposed to have been the
origin Of the dragon Of the medieval
eastern imagination. The reptile is like
an ordinary lizard. but Is provided with
folds Of extensible skin which are
spread out by the long ribs and enable
the animal to glide through the air from
tree to tree In pursuit of the insects on
which it preys. When lying prone on
the notified surface Of bough, it Is
an excellent example Of protective re-
semblance," as it is most difficult to be
seen unless it moves.

discovered, he was arrested, imprison

his trial and execution he composed
the words and music Of this song and

Heart and Lungs.

The action Of the heart, lungs and d.
gestive system is involuntary, for the
reason that it is Indispensable to life
and must be carried on under all cir
cumstances. If man had to think of
his heart or had to remember that he
must breathe or that his food must di-
gest he would have no time to do any
thing else, and If by chance he should
forget to keep his heart going or his
lungs in operation he would fall dead
on the spot.

freight service between Seattle and
Walla Walla, enabling the Seattle job
bers to compete with the merchants Of
Portland. Protest was made sometime
ago by the Seattle wholesalers that the
freight service between that city and
Walla Walla was unsatisfactory II
was operated only vice a week, and
there was no through service, Pascc

From Pasco on to Walla Walla the
freight was handled from the same
cars and distributed to the different
stations
The new service, which was estab-
lished February 1, makes about As
hours difference in the time of ship
ping from Seattle to Walla Walla. The
same service also applies to Dayton
and Pendleton, and the jobbers have
already commenced to increase the
trade in this section. The through
freight car for WalIa Walla leaves
Seattle on No. every night and comes
through direct, without stop.
The jobbers petitioned the Northern
Pacific about four weeks ago to estab-
lish such a service, setting forth that
it was the intention to invade the
Walla Walla territory as soon as ade-
quate means Of transportation were
provided.
1t is stated at the local traffic offices
of the Northern Pacific that the bust
ness has already commenced to show
an increase The service is pronounced
by the Northern Pacific officials to be
the best to the points affected ever
operated by the Northern Pacific.
