British Army's First Trousers,

Perhaps the army revolution Of deep est interest to the soldier himself was that effected in 1923, when for the first efme he was put in trousers. The an nouncement from the horse guards Cook the following remarkable form ~His majesty has been pleased to ap prove of the discontinuance of breech es, leggings and shoes as part of the clothing of the infantry soldiers and Of blue gray cloth trousers and half boots being substituted" In order to indem r2ify the clothing colonels' for any Hardship which the new order might cause 1t was decided that these gentle snen should no longer be called upon Go provide the waisteoat of Tommy. but that Tommy should himself supply 1t out of his shilling day. To reas- sure him it was pointed out that he was in a position to do so with com rort, because he would no longer have to buy gaiters. Chronicle.

The First Gas Tubes.

William Murdock, Scottish mining engineer employed in the Redruth mines, Cornwall. appears to have been the first to suggest that gas might be conveyed in tubes and used instead of lamps and candles. He made a very E lious gas lantern for himself, with w,..ch he used to light his way over the Cornish moors at night. This Ian tern consisted of bag filled with gas and fitted with tube, at the end of which the gas could be lighted. Carry ing the bag under his arm, Murdock used to light his way home at night. On meeting any one 1t is said that he Wour give the bag squeeze and thus send out long tongue of flame. This led to his being looked upon as the demon of the Cornish moors.-LondoL Telegraph.

The Onion Eater.

Most of us," said man who eats plenty of onions, "eat too much meat and grease and butter and bread and not enough vegeta bles, and the conse. Quence is our systems get clogged up with grease and starch. our flyers get out of order and we grumble at our wives, and scold our children, and fuss when the baby cries, and quarrel with the street car conductors, and get into rows at the office and lose our jobs, not because we are naturally sulky or quarrelsome, but because we are bil- ious. Why are we bilious? Because we don't eat onions. You never saw a dyspeptic man ea.ng onions. He thinks they are poison. bat, In fact they are the medicine that he most needs. Whenever you see an onion eater you see Il whole souled, open hearted, jolly good fellow. who knows what he ought to eat to keep him good humored. Talk about the staff of life, why. bread is only crutch. There is more nourishment ia an onion than there is in roll: The onion lovers keep the world moving, to say nothing of providing it with much of its fun." St. Louis Globe Democrat

A PecuIiarity of Criminals.

Policemen, in spite of their trouble Gn solving what appear to be E-~re or less simple problems, are fond of as- eerting that the ordinary criminal be- trays an amazing lack or originality. Da support of this they point out that when a criminal is arrested after do. ang one stretch the second charge against him is generally for the same sort of crime. They explain this by saying that each failure or each loss shows the "croo's" some point of which S,e had been ignorant, and it is easy Cor him to convince himself that next time he will "vod ;hat mistake and Je successful. when hc fails and is ar Eestel t,ln l1W shows i!.ln just where ele bun%l VI ;s:';! t!Ir ga!Mhla'''> love oI taking .s:!Dt H.y l!A to tr! his Buck at Ii,, game ttace !1orr.

Elephant Life In the Juneles.

Without elephants jungles would be virtually impossible. The great beasts are a mixture of strength and weak ness, of craft and simplicity. The paths through the jungle from village to village are merely tracks from which the intellacing foliage has been cut and thrust aside and the virgin soil trodden into a black mud After Il rain this mud is many feet deep, and no living creature except an elephant, buffalo or a rhinoceros could labor through it. The elephant makes his way by lifting one foot at time a.!l inserting it deep into the s.;"@h ia front, withdrawing another M.,.4 d sound like the popping of a huge cork Nothing but a ride on an earthquake 6 could be compared with the sensation of being run away with by an ele- plant. As for stopping him. some one has we'll said that you might as well try to stop q runaway locomotive by pulling with your walking stick o1 the funnel as seek to check an elephant at such a moment with Il goad.

The First Woman Whip.

Who was the first femme cochere?'

For in the days when the woman whip was 8 very rare spectacle indeed this daunt less dame was frequently to be seen driving her phaeton through Paris One day two facetious youths took 1t Into their heads to signal to her. "Pst, cocherew The princess entered into the spirit of the joke. She drew up. "By the hour," said the two. seating them. selves. "Where?" "Bois de Boulogne." She whipped up without another word and drove off to the Bos. After a sj- lent tour of something over an hour the merry twain began to tire and asked to be put down.

Castle Garden.

Castle Garden was built by the Unit ed States in 1907 from the plans of Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Williams, Q. E., and was called Fort Clinton. In 1922 it was ceded to New York city. In 1924 1t became place of amusement and about 1926 got the name of Castle Garden. In 1845 there were Ethiopian minstrels there, in 1S4749 theatrical companies played there, and in 1850 Jenny Lind sang there. In 1855 it was closed as place of amusement, and he commissioners of immigration took 1t as an immigrant depot. In 1870 it suffered from fire, and on July 9, 1876, It was burned to the ground. It was rebuilt at once. In 1892 the depot was moved to Ellis island, and Castle Gar den reverted to the city, which in 1896 opened an aquarium there

One day as Mir.

He was over eighty at tie time. Mr. Glad stone wept fuently on, expounding the merits of rabbit farming, but after I time even he noticed the rain and the umbrella. Turning to Mrs. Gladstone
 he said, Il will put my own up. my dear" and he did so. Again the elo

Rickshaws and Dandies.

In the mountain districts of India the principal vehicles of passenger conveyance are the rickshaw and the dandy, with which Rudyard Kipling has made us familiar. The rickshaw Is pushed and pulled through the streets and on the roads leading out Into the country by four coolies, and the dandy is carried on tho shoul ders of four and sometimes six coolies Saddle ponies are also used to some ex. tent, but most of the inhabitants and quite all visitors use the rickshaw and dandy. The latter is constructed on the plan of sleigh box, but longer. A pole is attached fore and aft, which is long enough to give a springy motion when the coolies are walking and trot- ting. A crosspiece rests on the shoul- 1ers of the coolies and is shifted uow and then from one shoulder to the oth- CT for rest. By the command of the cooly in charge this shift is made si- simultaneously.
