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 a com
mon striped squirrel, not daring to
move a 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 o. 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 its branches.

Maginnis had been i'll for some time,
and, like a great many invalidS, he
was somewhat irritable, and when
things failed to meet his approval the
next unfortunate who came within
range was pretty apt to be reminded
of it in a way far more fOrcible than
polite. He fingered in this condition
for several weeks, daily growing weak
err, but still holding his own sufficient
ly to make things lively and more or
less interesting for those about him.
Finally n day when the family doc,

Snuff as Medicine.

"Oh, yes" said the ~tobacconist, as he
tapped a jar filed with a cinnamon col
ored powder, Il sell an ounce or two of
snuff occasionally-to the old, as Il
rule. The young will seldom look at
snuff. And those who do use it i'm
pute medicinal virtues to it. Thus old
fashioned watchmakers, gem cutters
and tailors think thai a pinch of snuff
now and then improves the eyesight.
They think it refreshes and fOrtifies
weary eyes as Il cup of tea refreshes
and fortiies a weary brain. Others
think snuff cures a cold. Others take
it for the headache. Others still be-
lieye that it wards off contagion. Per-
sonally l believe that snuff taking is
less harmful than smoking. Its effect,
too, is pleasanter than the effect of
smOking-it is a most soothing and
fascinating effect once you get used to
it-but the habit is untidy and there
fore it can get no hold upon us in this
aesthetic age."-LOs Angeles Times.

THE GRASS FENCE.
Thrilling Irp;ident of the Battle Ct
Bunker Hill.

Bunker Hill.
The battle Of Bunker Hill gave the
occasionsfor many deeds of valor, and
since that day we hold a list of names
Illuminated in our memory. One OF
these names belongs TO the Knight OF
Derryfield. DO you remember who he
was, and can you recall the song OF his
bravery? Read of it once more and
have impressed again on your heart
the implicit obedience and perfect
courage of the New Hampshire farm.
ers and their captain, John Moor.
When the forty-fiye men Of the little
town of Derryfield, n. H., left their
homes to fight for the great cause each
knew that no men were ever led by q
Drawer man than their beloved Captain
Moor. His courage had inspired many
of them in the French and Indian war.
So, eagerly, when the alarm came in
1895 they marched with him and his
drummer boy son to Cambridge, where
he was entered a captain in Stark's
regiment.
And now comes the battle of Bunker
Hill. Behind a fence, piled thick with
grass, Captain MOor's company lay as
still as death. An order had come from
Colonel Stark that not a shot was to be
fired until the British passed Il stake
that was driven q short distance away.
With perfect confidence in themselves
and their captain, the farmers waited
waited mOtiOnlesS while that beauti-
full, death dealing pageant of British
warriors swept grandly toward them.
With the GOODNESS and wonderful pre-
cision of a dress parade the old world
came to meet the new, the grenadiers
and light infantry marching in single
file twelve feet apart, the artillery ad-
%vancing more slowly and laundering
out an inSolent defiance to the con-
ceited little rebels, while on each side
five battalions formed an oblique line
to the fence breastworks. The very
flower of the English army, full bios
somed in learned maneuvers, resplen-
dent in shining arms and waving ban
ners, advanced to meet a little group of
men unframed in tactics of warfare,

hiding behind a breastwork of grass.
The dead line was crossed. Bang!
Bang! Bang. The little rebels were
awake at last. Now, not the stake,
but a line of fallen bodies marked the
dead line. Thunder and lightning
belched forth from that breastwork.
A fire, intense, steady, killing, and the
brave march of the Britishers was
checked. A slight recoil, and the Off
GERS, dashing up, again urged the line
forward. Not for one moment did the
grass fence cease its voice of fire and
shot. One by n the brave grenadiers
and their dashing. gallant officers fell
to the earth. The ranks broke and the
proud host fled before the meager
handful of New Hampshire men. All,

The boy declined and soon left the

A Wasp's Mistake.

1t Is generally supposed that Instinct
unerringly teaches birds and insects
The lest way in which to build their
homes or nests and also to provide for
their offspring. The following Incl
dent will show hat instinct is not al
ways infallible:
a naturalist placed three small emp
ty walls in an open box on Il shelf IN
III upright position in close contact,
and they were uncorked. A short time
afterward II was a matter of surprise
to find that these had been apprOpri-
ated by Il female mud wasp. She had
placed n goodly number of spiders In
the center vial, doubtless intended to
serve as food for her future brood,
then proceeded to deposit her eggs in
those on either side. She next closed
tightly the mouths of all the recepta-
cles with a hard lime cement. Having
finished her work, she her doubtless
went on her way, satisfied all had been
done for her offspring that a thought
full mother could do. But just think
of the sensations of those little wasps
when they come into existence, for,
while starving in their sealed cages,
they can plainly see through the i'm
p~snetrable glass walls the bOuntiful
supply of food which was provided for
their use.

pretty we'll how to get into telegraphic
touch both with land and with other
vessels at sea. Not only from the great
Marconi stations at Cornwall and
Nova Scotia and Massachusetts, but
also from other vessels on the trans
atlantic passage, the liners are kept in
formed of the latest events. The Mar
conf telegraph communication chart
shows the operator the moment when
he may expect to get into communica-
ton with any other vessel on the route.
The latest news is printed on board ip
a little paper and is discussed in the
smoking rooms in mid-Atlantic almost
as soon as it is commented on in the
clubs of London and New York.
Up to the present time the wireless
system has proved of greatest prac-
teal value in communicating with YES
sells at sea-. But now Mr.. MarcOni
says that the time has come for the es-
Enlistment of 4 regular commercial
wireless service across the ocean. For
four years the inventor has been able
to send communications to and fro
across the big pond. and by means of
the experiments made and the i'm
provement in instruments effected all
obstacles have been overcome, 50 that
now the establishment of regular trans
atlantic wireless service on a CONNER
cial basis is feasible. The average
speed in sending messages will be
twenty words a minute, and the rate
will be 10 cents Il word for ordinary
commercial messages and ; cents Il
word for press dispatches. These rates
may be cut in two later. The mes
sases will be sent from the new sta
ton at Glace Bay, Nova Scotia. and re-
ceived at Clifden, Ireland, where n
new plant has been established, fitted
with the latest apparatus. much more
powerful than that of the older sta
ton ct poldhu, Cornwall.

tic directs attention to the marvellous
progress made within Il few years IN
putting into practical use his discov.
cries and inventions.
The record breaking trip of the new
Cunard liner Lusitania, which excited
SO much interest and was the subject
of SO many articles in the press, served
TO call into notice the value of the
wireless system of telegraphy. 1t was
due TO such n service that those on
both sides of the Atlantic who We're
following the course of the vessel were
able to learn each day of the progress
the steamship was making, Of the
number of knots steamed per hour or
day and all other important incidents
of the trip.
The voyage of the Atlantic fleet into
Pacific waters is another thing which
calls into special prominence the fact
of the great value of the wireless tele-
graph and Of that newest thing in
science, the wireless telephone. Not
only are all the battleships which are
to participate in the much talked Of
cruise to have full wireless telegraph
equipment, but by order of Assistant
Secretary Newberry they are all to be
equipped with wireless telephone in
struments. The sixteen battleShips
participating IN the cruise and also the
six torpedo boat destroyers are to be
fitted with two sets of wireless tele-
phones. The Virginia and Connecticut
are to be thus equipped first, to test
the merits of the device. The instru-
ments to be used are guaranteed for
