Rats Are Ivory Experts.

The ivory dealer pointed to half dozen rats gnawing among the yellow heaps of tlIsks and ivory fragments in the garrct.
 "rhey are quite tame, you see, he said. "Why shouldn't they be so? The fact is, they are on my payroll. They work for me- Their wages are q pound of cheese and loaf of bread a week.
 "Iyory dealers like rats, for rats are ivory's best judges, and without their help we should often want a highel' price for bad tusk than for d fine one''
 He took a fragment of ivory from the floor and pointed to certain smaIi furrows in it's surface.
 ''The rats did that he said. ''Tho.e flrrows are d proof of the ivory's eE ceilence. Rats gnaw the ivory that contains animal glue, or gelatin, I substance of which they are fond. AnG this substance it is that makes ivory excellent, yet q mere man cant tell whether tusk contains it or n0t. The rats can tell They are ivory experts. " New Orleans Times Democrat.

To while away the time he walked out a short way in the envtrons, where the picturesque ruin of q castle met his eye.

The Worst of Education.

When the new and the old school meet, there is likely to be clash ot opinions, and so the miller, Brown found the other day when Farmer Jackson sent his young son across tc the mill with sack of corn which ht wished ground into meal. Like thc miller, the mill was of the old, leisure ly school, and only a tiny stream oi meal trickled out. The young mar waXed impatient.
 What q milll'' he said, with scorn "Why, I could eat the meal quicker than this ramshackle old concern oi yours can grind it"'
 Aye said Miller Brown. "but how long couldst keep it up, lad?
 ""Till I starved!" was the trenchan1 answer.
 And when Miller Brown had puzzled out the inwardness of the remark hf concluded that lads nowadays were 'gettin' a power too sharp wi theil tongues. .'-London Express.

Some young women in England have begun to dress out and out like men. They wear q long coat cut like hunt ing coat, a cap, riding brooches and top boots.

Brought a Blush to Her Cheek.

There was a story told of one of the worlds great yocalists singing as q young girl at private house. She was overwhelmed With praise. By and by, says the London News. she came and sat by an elderly lady, who congratu- lated her on the way she had sang, but ventured to offer one or two sugges tions. The young singer treated the hints with scorn and afterward asked the hostess who "the old lady" was who had dared to give her suggestions "Oh, that was Mime. Goldschmidt," re- piled the lady. And who is Mime, GoldschmidtT" was the next impatient query. Well, she's better known as Jenny Lind" said the hostess.

The Southern farm gazette. (Starkville, Miss.) 1895-1909, 1907-08-01

After a dairyman has as large
a herd as he desires he can sell
surplus heifers at good prices
provided they are high grades.
If they we're registered animals,
of course, they would sell for
more; and the cost Of growing
them would be very little great.

start with registered breeders.
Dairymen too often are con.
tent to let their CO vs. run on any
land where grass grows, with.
out giving much attention to
how luxuriant the grass is or
how many months in the year
the pasture affords grazing.
They should never lose sight
