Brindle, hearing the old song, and
seeing Jacks familiar garb, bawled a
welcome. The apparent change of sex
worked like charm, and M'lindy soon

Meanwhile, Seth Morton was hurry
Ing up the lane. For three days he
had hung around In hopes of seeing
his sweetheart, each day venturing
nearer to the house. Now, seeing Jack,
as he supposed, he decided to send
some word to Mllndy.
Hello, Jack! thought I saw you

BEAUTIFUL CASS LAKE.

Geography of the Camper.

An Undiscovered Country I'm the
Geography of the Camper.
Beautiful Cass Lake, set In an emer- |
aid wreath Of 6,4Oo acres of giant Nor
way and white pines, contains an
island of 1900 acres known as Star
Island, because Its FIVE wooded points
jutting out into the lake give 1t the
shape of a star, says the st. Paul Plo-
neer Press. Here also the white pines
and giant Norways constitute bit of
the forest primeval. And within this
island is yet another lake, the crystal
waters of which reflect wildly the
evergreen forest that girts its shores.
This inner lake is varlously known as
Lake Helen and Lake Windigo. The
latter name was given to it by the In
dams and Is said to mean the place
of the evil spirit, though the fitness of
the name is certainly not apparent In
the quiet and peaceful surroundings Of
Its placid waters. This lake, which Is
about a mile In circumference, Is al
most circular and has no visible outlet
or inlet Its surface Is at all times
higher than that of the surrounding
lakes.
The forest on Star Island Is one Of
its greatest attractions. Many Of the
, trees are two feet through the butt
and are capable Of being cut into five
or six slxteen-foot logs. Norway pine
. predominates, although many white
: pines are to be seen.
There is little underground on the
, island, the surface of which Is COM

New ENGLAND Interpretation.

Cardinal Gibbons was facetious
when the Irish ladies' choir of Dublin
called on him. Turning suddenly he
asked:
(Which one of you is the oldest?"
None claimed the honor, and all
blushed.
The talk drifted around to Gilmore
and his band, and Cardinal Gibbons
told of how Gilmore, at Coney Island,
hearing that the cardinal was in the
audience, played Maryland, My Mary
land" and how it pleased him.
Gilmore" said the cardinal, was
famous for his playing of Mozart's
Twelfth Mass. Once he played it in
a North Carolina town, and next day
the local paper announced that he rem

comanche Counts oueerIy.

A peculiar feature about the Co
manche language is the method OF
counting. A Comanche will count UP
to ten in the 1, 2, 8, 4, 5, 6, Z, 8, 9, 10
method, but there he stops. He
doesn't use eleven, but instead he
counts 1t as ten and one more" and
so on, until he reaches nineteen,
when he pronounces nineteen. He
then pronounces twenty, but starts in
with twenty and one more" until he
reaches Twenty-Five, which he counts
twenty nine, then starts in with thir.
ty, like he did twenty, and counts to
thirty-nine, and so on all the way up.
Counting is the most difficult thing to
learn in the Comanche language. In
fact, by the time person has learned
to count in that language he has pref.
ty we'll mastered it. AS there is no
alphabet In the language the only way
to learn It is by word Of mouth.

rooe ALL CONTAIN A POISON
Action Of Gastric Juices and Bile Pre-
vents Bad Effects.

Paragraphs have been extensively
published in the daily papers dealing
with the researches Of M. Loisel OK
Paris on the recurrence Of poisonous
principles in eggs. 1t seems that the
yolk of the eggs OF hens. ducks and
tortoises contain a poison which. IL
injected into the veins or otherwise
inoculated into the animal body,
causes death from its effects on the
nervous system. The white of the tor
Soise's egg also contains toxic sub
stance.
Why eggs are not poisonous as Or
dinarily Used or even when eaten raw
may be explained on the ground that
the action of digestion alters the COM
position of the egg or at least modihes
1t SO that Ill effects are avoided. In
deed, 1t is easy to show that certain
foods at a particular stage of digestion
are "poisons" 1t is the action of the
Aver on such foods which robs them
of their power to do harm.
