Mr.. Millals tells how rabbits swim
when compelled to "They swim with
the head held as high as possible, while
the hooks Of the hind legs appear above
the element at each stroke. The Shout
ders and front part of the body are
buried beneath the water while the
rump and tail are high and dry"
Natural enemies Of the animal world
are sometimes found living together in
extraordinary communities. The same
writer quotes this experience Of an OBJ
server: ION one occasion when ferret
Ing l bolted fox, a cat, a stoat and
several rabbits and rats out of the
same earth. The fox bolted first, after
giving the ferret a nip across the back,
from the effects of which 1t died an
hour later. Next came the stoat and
then the cat, both of which | shot. Then
followed the rabbits and rats promls-
cuously. 1t was a large burrow on
the bank Of a deep dry watercourse,
and often held a fox when | ferreted
it afterward"
Interesting ngures on the relative
agility Of hares and rabbits are given

when running at ease" he says, "ths
length of the hare's stride is about
four feet; but under conditions of fear
Its leaps extend to ten and twelve feet,
while some authors claim that 1t can
jump ten bitches twenty to twenty-five
feet in width. Perpendlcularly a hare
can jump on to five-foot wall, but
seems to be nonplused by one If about
six feet. The stride Of the rabbit is
about two feet; when necessary 1t can
make leaps of six or seven fet hori-

LlNcoLN's FAIRNESS.

IL Was One of His Strongest Traits,
Governing Every Action of Life.
General Taylor was triumphantly
elected, and 1t then became Lincoln's
duty, as Wing member OF Congress from
Illinois, to recommend certain persons
to fill government offices In that State,
He did this after he returned to Spring
field. for his term In Congress ended Oh
March 4, lS49, the day that General
Taylor became President. The letters
that he sent TO Washington when for
wardlng the papers and applications OF
people who wished appointment were
both characteristic and amusing; for
IN his desire not to mislead or to dc
injustice to any man, they were very
apt to say more In favor OF the men
he did not wish to see appointed than
In Recommendation OF his own partlc'
ular candidates.
This absolute and impartial fairness
to friend and foe alike was one OF his
strongest traits, governing every action
Of his life. II II had not been for this
he might possibly have enjoyed another
term In Congress, for there had been
talk Of re-electing him. In spite Of his
confession to Speed that being elected
to Congress. though I am very grateful
to our friends for having done It. ha,
not pleased me as much as | expected,
this must have been nattering. But
there we're many able young men IN
Springfield who coveted the honor. and
they had entered into an agreement
among themselves that each would b,
content with a single term. Lincoln oil
course remained faithful to his prom
Use. His strict keeping Of promises
caused him also to lose an appointment
from President Taylor as Commissioners
OF the General Land Office. which might
easily have been his. but for which hi
had agreed to recommend some othel
Illinois man. A few weeks later the
President offered to make him Governor
OF the new Territory OF Oregon. This
attracted him much more than the 9th
er office. but he declined because hi,
wife was unwilling to live In a place AZ
far away.
His career in Congress proved Of
great advantage to him In after life
having given him a close knowledge o
the workings OF the Federal Govern
ment. and brought him into contac
with political leaders from all parts o.
the Union.-St Nicholas.

Brown to himself having by chance

Information, which. to Mr.. Brown, was

been buying salt put up in wooden

And yet there remained the fact,
mildly bewailed by Letitia, that there

say to Lefty, "Well, what of it? Not

any dishes to wash and we shan't want

for he didn't want to hurt Letltlas

nothing, but just kept these things to
