Compliment. Ankr Death.

There Is German proverb which
says, "Man DART nur sterben UNI gelObt
zu werden" eve need only die In order
to get praised). This, we cannot help
but admit, Is fairly true in general
sense, and If we required any proof or
confirmation the epltaphs In ceme-
teries, churchyards and churches
would readily furnish It. Indeed If we
had no other testimony to go by than
these plous Inscriptions we might al
most fancy that men and women had
arrived at such a state Of perfection
that they were little less than angels.
Death, like time, Is great healer Of
wounds, a great soother of passions, a
great calmer Of turbulent thoughts, a
slayer of enmity. He Is the peace
maker par excellence, having caused
tho saying to gain general currency
that we should say nothing Of the dead
but what Is good. Among the laws Of
the "Twelve Tables" compiled by the
Decemviri, there was one which, In
fact, forbade to speak injuriously of
the dead. 1t Is in exchange for this
doubtless that we are always doubly
anxious and ready to vilify the living.

Where Animals Beat Men,

"Nature taking aside" said the ZOO
keeper, mice won't eat oIeo. It IS a
fact. Lay a pat Of oleo and pat of
butter side by side and in the morning
the butter will be gone, but the cleo
will remain untouched.
"Oh, yes, some animals are incredi-
bly, nice about their food. The otter,
when living wild, will only eat one
piece, one mouthful out of each fish
he catches. He will land beautiful
trout, but only one bite of it from the
back, just behind the neck, is good
enough for him. The rest he losses
aside. This epicure often kills dozen
fine, big trout to make one meal.
"Chimpanzees have very delicate
tastes. A banana or pineapple that
to you seems delicious to a chimpan-
zee may be revolving. His taste is
keener. Grapes grown in hothouses
where sulphur fumes are used as an
tnsecticide taste all right to man, but
chimpanzee will have none of them.

sudden impulse he threw it into the
fire. The wife found it and took it
out and discovered who had given it

warning him, and at length was the
means of saving him. He became all

Rescued a "Foxy" Squirrel.


A man in New York state who owns
several fine cats stepped out Of his
house one day to see two Of his feline
possessions crouched in the grass, and
eQuidistant between them sat com.
mon striped squirrel, not daring ia
move hair lest he invite the SHARP
claws Of one or both of his enemies
but the anxious brown eyes rolled from
side to side as he calculated his chances
Of escape between the two The man
walked on toward the squirrel, and
when he came within jumping distance
the squirrel seized his opportunity and
leaped upon the mans trousers and
ran nimbly to his shoulder. Then the
man backed slowly toward a tree at
no great distance from him. Again
when within leaping distance the
squirrel jumped into the tree and dis
appeared amid it's branches.

Her Purse and III. handkerchief.

1.-THE thoughts Of youth are long,
long thoughts" The other day young
woman who had dropped her purse,
full of pay money for the corps Of
girls under her charge. considered the
thoughts of youth to be rather too
"long."
She was in one OF the large depart
ment stores. and as her hands were
occupied she let her purse lie for a
few moments where 1t had fallen. But
her eye was on it. In the meantime a
bright little fellow not more than nine
or ten years old left his parents near
by and deftly covered the purse with
a handkerchief,
The woman, who Is perfectly self
possessed young person, could hardly
believe her eyes. but she waited to see
what the boy would do. Just as he
was STOPPING to his prize she placed
her foot quietly upon 1t. The young
ster slipped back without word to
the we'll dressed respectable" people
with whom he was.
Then the woman picked up her purse
and, taking the handkerchief over to
the lad. handed 1t to him. saying,
''There Is no reason why you should
lose your handkerchief just because
you didn't get my purse"-New York

How a Tree Grows.

Both earth and air are required for
the growth of plant or tree. The
roots absorb moisture from the soil,
which, in the form of watery fluid
called common sap, rises through the
fbers Of the last deposited annular
ring, traversing all the branches and
leaf stalks until it reaches the leaves;
there it undergoes a change by the
absorption of carbonic acid from the
air. It then travels downward again
In the form Of proper sap, just under
meath the bark, which is expanded by
the accession Of moisture and in the
cavity so formed new layer of ma
terial Is deposited which gradually
hardens and forms a new annular
ring. And so, from absorbing the
moisture and minerals of the soil and
the carbonic acid Of the air the tree
goes on until it finishes its cycle and
dies.-New York American.
