daughters, from royalty down, should
say, that isn't an artist in the wearing
Of diamonds. Many are we'll versed

In polishing and preparing them

The Marvel Of Notre Dame.

Often as I have seen Notre Dame,
the marvel Of it never grows less. I go
to Paris with no thought or time for it,
busy about many other things, and
then on my way over one Of the
bridges across the river perhaps I see
it again on its island, the beautiful
towers high above the high roofs Of
houses and palaces, and the view, now
so familiar, strikes me afresh with all
the wonder Of my first impression.
The wonder only seems greater If I
turn, as 1 am always tempted to, and
walk down the quays on the left bank,
the towers before me and with every
step coming more and more complete
ly together, by the Pont Neuf, to the
island and at last to the great square
where Notre Dame fronts me in it's
superb calm.-Elizabeth Robins Pen

woman, In a soldier, in a sailor, in a
clerk, a sense Of humor is help and
a blessing through life. At the same
time even a sense Of humor may exist
in excess. I, for my part, shouldn't

as a British soldier once heard about.
This soldier was ordered to be f1ogged.
During the f1ogging he laughed con-
tinually. The lash was laid on all the
harder, but under the rain of blows the
soldier laughed.
What are you laughing at? the
sergeant finally asked
Why the soldier chuckled, I'm

Buying Birds to Free Them,

Buying Birds to Free Them.
Birds are often purchased in the bird
market at Lucknow, India. In order to
be set free again. This is done by Hin
docs as work Of merit and by Mo-
hammedans after certain rites have
been performed as an atonement, in
imitation Of the Jewish scapegoat. It
IS essential that a bird used for this
purpose should be strong enough to fly
away; but that does not induce the
cruel dealers to feed the birds, or to
refrain from dislocating their wings or
breaking their legs. They put down
everything to good or bad luck, and
leave the customer to choose strong
bird, if he can find one, and to 60 away
If he cannot. The merit obtained by
setting bird free is not attributed to
Deity, but it is supposed to come in a
large measure from the bird itself or
from its attendant, spirit, and hence
birds Of good or bad omen, and es-
pecially kites and crows, are in much
demand and are regularly caught to be
sold for this purpose.

a Patented Plant

Zone plant at least has been patent
Cd" said an inventor. ut is the Abrus
precatorius, alias paternoster pea, alias
weather plant John Nowack took out
the patent. The weather plant is still
believed by many persons to foretell
the weather. John Nowack was sure it
did SO, and he put it on the market
along with an indicating apparatus,
guaranteeing it to foretell for forty
eight hours in advance and for fifty
miles around fog, rain, snow, hail,
earthquake and depressions likely to
cause explosions Of fire damp. Alas
for poor Nowack! The experts Of the
bureau of agriculture took up his pat
ented plant. They proved that the
movements of the leaves-to the right
foretelling rain, to the left foretelling
drought-were not caused by the
weather, but by the light And they
proved that the plants famous down
ward movement, which was supposed
to foretell earthquake, was caused by
an insect that punctured the stem,
causing the leaf, naturally, to droop.
That is the only patented plant
know Of. and Nowack lost money on
it."

IDA L. TAKES FIRST MONEY IN RACE
F. J. Nenno's Horse Distances the
Other Seven.

There was considerable local inter-
est in the races that took place at the
fair grounds yesterday because of the
entry of two horses owned by New
Ulm parties, these were Ida L. by F.
j. Nenno and Allen F., DR.. Vogel's
horse.
The former was entered in the 2:20
class and won three of the five heats,
taking first money. The contest was a
close one and exciting from start to
finish and the crowd on the grand
stand was keyed up to the most in
tense interest, the people remaining IN
their places until the finish of the
race.
The animal showed it's breeding in
good shape and it's running was excel

then rapidly recovering. It was driv-

that as driver he knew his business.
DR.. Vogel' horse was out classed
and while it made good time in the
PIP class, was practically not in the
race at any time. In both races there
were eight entries, SO it will be seen
that both horses were up against some
good running stock and the track was
not in the best possible condition.
