The Game of the Sheen.

Among the gypsies of Bosnia there
is a curious game called "the game of
the sheep"
You know they skin a sheep or goat
in the east by dragging the skin off
whole over its head. This skin the
Bosnians drip and grease most care
fully. Then they tie up the four legs
and the neck and blow it full of air, so
that it looks like a very greasy, badly
shaped sheep. This is thrown in the
middle of a ring, and each man in turn
jumps on it with bare feet until n
succeeds in bursting it. The lucky one
then gets a purse. Such a funny sight
as it is to see them jump and sprawl,
for Of course if they do not strike it at
just the right angle they slip on the
greasy surface as if it were a toboggan
slide and go sprawling.

An Il Birds Nest,

The oldest Of all birds nests is the
one built by the tontobane, a South
African songster. 1t is built of cot
ton and always upon the tree produc-
ing the material. In constructing the
domicile the female works inside and
the male outside, where he builds a
sentinel box for his W special use.
He sits in the box and keeps watch or
sings nearly all the time, and when
danger comes In the form Of a hawk
or a snake he warns the family, but
never enters the main nest.

How Covnrds Were Punished.

Many of the devices by which mill
tary Indifference to life has been ma
tured and sustained are curious. In
ancient Athens the public temples
were closed to those who refused mill
tary service, who deserted their ranks
or lost their bucklers, while a law con-
strained such offenders to sit for three
days in the public forum dressed in
the garments of women. Many a Spar
tan mother would stab her SON who
came back alive from a defeat, and
such a man, if he escaped his mother,
was debarred not only from public of
fees, but from marriage, exposed to the
blows Of all who chose to- strike him,
compelled to dress in mean clothing
and to rear his beard negligently
trimmed. In the same way a horse
soldier who fed OF lost his shield or re-
ceived a wound in any save the front
part Of the body was by law prevented
from ever afterward appearing in pub
lie.

The First Electric Train.

The earliest public trial of a passen-
ger boat driven by an electric motor
was that conducted by Professor ia
cobb of st. Petersburg in the year 1893,
though for four years previously he
had successfully experimental with
electric traction in the privacy Of his
own grounds. The trial of Jacobs
vessel took place on the Neva and was
witnessed by a vast crowd of people.
The boat was twenty-eight feet long
and ten feet wide and carried fourteen
persons.
1t was not until four years later that
we find any record of q passenger car
rage driven by electricity on land, and
in this case the inventor was Alexan-
der. Davidson of Edinburgh. The car
rage was sixteen feet long by seven
feet wide and was impelled for a mile
and a half at the rate of four miles an
hour on the Edinburgh and Glasgow
railway.

Plates,

Individual plates for table use were
unknown to the %ancients, who held
their meat in their hands or employed
the fiat wheaton cakes then made on
which to hold their yictuals. They are
the luxurious on the continent, and in
the ninth century they had come into
common use both in England and on
the continent. They were made of
wood or some kind of earthenware, the
former material being preferred be-
cause it did not dull the knives.

Ether and Matter.

The densest matter is more or less
porous. Gold will absorb mercury as a
lump Of sugar will absorb water, show
ing there must be. intersticeS or inter-
atomic spaces in it, but the ether shows
no such property. If a drop Of water
could be magnifed sufficiently one
would ultimately see the different
atoms of hydrogen and oxygen that
constitute the molecules Of water. If
a small volume Of ether could be thus
magnif1ed the indications are that the
ultimate part would look like the first,
which is the same as saying that it Is
not made up Of discrete particles, but
fills space completely. This is express
ed by saying that the ether Is a con-
tinuous medium and is hence incom-
parable with matter.

No. 10 Kills John Nelson.

Tuesday morning, at Holbrook, No. Ii
struck John Nelson, a member of the
steel gang, killing him instantly. The
train was running at a speed of perhaps
30 miles an hour. Dead man was
thrown against a box car on the side
track. The men had been ordered to
discontinue work until No. Ii had pass
ed. Nelson had started up the track,
apparently toward the bunk car, and
why he did not get off the track remains
unexplained. He was a Swede, about
forty years old, a strong robust man, but
little is known concerning him. On his
person was a receipt from a Denver
hospital, and a pass from Fitzpatrick
Bros.

Shoes,

During the reigns of William Rufus,
Henry L. and Stephen all sorts Of ex-
%trayagant shoes were worn. The toes
were sometimes long and pointed and
made to curl like a rams
horn. Occasionally they were twisted
in different directions. as though the
feet were deformed. The clergy pro-
tested and threatened, but the fashion
continued in spite Of the maledictions.
Several persons were communicated
for wearing pointed shoes, but they
took the risk.

Where Rnhie Swim.

II spend my winters in Samoa said
a traveller. ut is always summer
there. There the babies swim. Can
you imagine 4 q%uainter, a more charm
ing sight than a host of babies, none
over two years old, laughing and
growing and swimming like fish in
pools Of clear sea water? You will see
this sight in Samoa. Samoan women
believe sea baths benefit babies, and
in that equable climate they battle their
little ones daily the year around. The
youngsters soon learn to swim. They
can swim before they can walk. And
to see these pretty brown babies SWIM
ming in the sea is well worth a 5000
mile trip to Samoa."-Philadelphia Bull

Hard Lines For bachelors.

"Korea's the wrong place for bache-

Korea are considered as children and
have only children's privileges. You. a
Korean bachelor, get thirsty. You en-
ter a rest house and call for palm wine.
The pretty little amber colored wait
ress says:
"'Married?'

"'Heraus, then,' says she. And out
you go unslaked.
you want to vote, but they won't
let you if you are not married.
you apply for a job somewhere.
How many children have you?' is the
first question you're asked.
"And as 500 as you say you're I'M
married they laugh in your face to
think that you should presume to apply
for work anywhere"

Of speech and action. All work was
