Marry Postal Authorities

Because the postal administration
has imposed a duty of Ave ~pfennigs
instead of two on postal cards intend
ed for urban delivery, the citizens of
Hanover have inaugurated a singular
strike against the postal authorities,
Instead of writing postal cards, they
all write letters, and, not satisfied
with sending their effusions in an en-
velope, they fill it with newspaper SO
as to bring the weight of the letter to
the maximum Of $50 grams. AS the
envelopes they now use are Of the
maximum size tolerated it is easy to
abstruct a letter box with only a doz-
en- of such missives. The postal au.
thorities are alarmed at this obstruc-
ton of the postal service, and ii is
probable that the former tariff of two
~pfennigs on postal cards will have to
be reestablished.

ELEPHANT AT THE TELEPHONE
Animal Took Much Time to Learn
ludicrous Trick.

So perfectly is this elephant broken
that he works by cues ~imperceptible
to the audience. The trainer merely
raises his shoulders and the young
bull strides toward the telephone box,
turn the crank, ringing the bell, picks
up the receiver in his long trunk and
holds it to his great, flap ear. Then
he hangs it up with the ~suddenness
of disgust, rings the bell a second
time, and again holds the receiver to
his ear, while he listens with the
sage, bland expression which only an
elephant can assume. When finished,
he hangs up the receiver and rings
off"
For something like two minutes
this performance lasts. Yet it re.
CURED a month Of steady, hard work
to break the elephant into this sim
pie, ludicrous trick. More than 1000
times, actual count, Barlow had to
grasp Toms trunk, apply it to the
the bell crank and teach the circular
motion of ringing the bell. by leading
the trunk just as you might lead the
hand of a young child when teaching
1t to wind a music box. More than
1000 times the trainer had to lead
the tip of the big receiver of the tele-
phone to teach the beast to hold it to
his ear and hang 1t accurately back
on its hook. And when these details
were mastered, 1t took more than 200
trials to teach the succession Of wind

Mrs. Craigie's Address.

the other day at the Authors club in

When Mrs. Craigie was In America
last year." said the editor, "she was
invited to make an address at a GER

tation, but her name, through some
oversight, was put far down on the
programme, and worse than that, the
chairman, a rather stupid person. in.
troduced before her some speakers
who were not on the programme at
all.
In short, 1t was close on to II
o'clock when the chairman, with q
pleasant smile, bowed and said:

A FOOD CONVERT.
Good Food the True Road to Health.

The pernicious habit some persons
still have of relying On nauseous drugs
to relieve dyspepsia, keeps up the
patent medicine business and helps
keep up the army of dyspeptics.
Indigestion - dyspepsia - is caused
by what is put into the stomach in
the way OF improper food, the kind
that SO taxes the strength of the d.
gestive organs they are actually Grip
pied.
When this state is reached, to resort
to stimulants is like whipping a tired
horse with a big load. Every addi-
tional effort he makes under the lash
increases his loss of power to move
the load.
Try helping the stomach by leaving
OF heavy, greasy, ~indigestible food and
take on Grape-Nuts-light, easily d.
gested, full OF strength for nerves and
brain, in every grain Of It. There's no
waste Of time nor energy when Grape
Nuts is the food.

Nuts and consider It an ideal food"

THE STORY.

GA MOTHER burial" Moses muttered
"A to himself, sadly, as he saw the
solemn procession passing on towards
the outer borders of the camp. Sure
ly the word of the Lord is being full
filled, and the graves of the children
of Israel are filling the wilderness"
|. The aged leader turned and let his
eyes follow the somber little group
meditatively. There was the shroud.
covered form lying so cold and still
on the stretcher borne between the
four. behind whom came the mourn.
ers. their heads covered and their
garments rent in token of their grief.
1t was but n of many such scenes
which had marked the wilderness
journey during the many years they
had been shut in there. T%hirty-ive
years had passed since that tragic
hour when Israel had rebelled and
refused to go forward and possess the
land. God had spoken his Judgment

watched the burial procession, he

shall enter the land of which God
hath spoken"
Know you who 1t is who is being
borne yonder to his grave?" ques-
toned Caleb, who stood near. He
had gone that morning to talk with
Moses concerning matters which had
to do with the drilling and disciplin.
ing Of the people for the march, and
1t was while they were thus engaged
that the funeral had passed and
broken into their discussion. And
now Caleb, feeling the burden upon
his leaders heart, asked If he knew
