JEFFERSON AS A WIT

One of the stories revived on the oecsslou of the recent birthday anni- vsrsary Of the author of the Declara- riop of Independence reveals Jefferson Al, one who vas not incapable of enter r,iping h.s friends with a ready wit. The light it throws on the great states man of a century ago, whose writings which were coplouS and covered 8 6sld as wide as tho whole range Of literature. science and politics. were all insvein so serious that one can hardly imagipe tho authour as iu any other mood than one of profound concern, is rather ,tr sngs than orthsrwiSe to the ordinary reader oi American history.
 The new JeHerbon story is told by Frr4srick J. Ha,kln, the newspaper ,orrssDondsnt, and is AS follows:

Hunting the Chamois.
From the Cutters Book

Exciting sport, the more exciting because
of the hardshps connected with it. is Of
fered by chamois hunting in the mountains
of Europe. The channels are found every
where in the highest mountains of Ger
many, Austria. Switzerland, in Transylva-
MIA, in the Carpathians, also in the Alps,
and these extremely shy animals are re-
garded by all true huntsmen as the most
desirable Of all game. The channels belongs
to the antelope species. but. unlike it's kin
of the broad plains, 1t prefers the barren
wilds Of the high mountains, and, like the
mountain sheep, the ibex and the mouf1on,
it selects in this territory full of chasms
and canyons the most impossible regions
as its lair During the summer months the
chamois roams in the higher attitudes, Nut
in the winter time Ii must descend to find
it's feed. After feeding it returns to Its old
impossible hooks. where 1t feels secure. AS
in the case Of the deer, the male is called a
buck and the female doe. but, unlike all
other animals of this kind, both sexes are
antlered. the horns being called ''krick-
elor." but those of the doe are somewhat
lighter than those of the buck. The doe
brings forth one fawn every year. some
times two. but very seldom three, which are
very dearly loved by the mother and which
she protects against all dangers. She has
her offspring with her always until breeding
time comes around again. the fawn leaving
only temporarily, In rutting time, to return
afterward.

PHILIPPINE. woMEN's CIGARS.
The "Tabaco Grande," Smoke That
Lasts Day-Rich Cagayan Valley.


From the Scientific American.
The greatest consumers of Philippine to-
bacco are the Filipinos themselves. With
a population of 100000, practically all of
whom even the non-Christian tribes, are
incessant smokers, usually including women
and children as well as men, and with many
districts where tobacco Is not raised for
family consumption, the consumption of
tobacco must be many times the value Of
the export.
In the Cagayan a most unique custom pre-
walls among the women, who smoke huge
cigar, the tabaco grande, which reaches a
length of from thirty inches to three feet
and is several inches in diameter. These
huge cigars are smoked off and on Tor a
day and half or two days. Sometimes a
tabaco grande is suspended in the middle
from rafter in the dwelling, and all the
women folk of the family puff in turn. The
men smoke the cigarettes or the ordinary
sized cigar.
Nine-tenths of all the tobacco raised in
the islands. and practically all that is used
commercially. is produced in the vast Caga-
yam valley of central and northern Luzon,
a region of which even many Americans in
the islands have little first-hand knowledge
The valley Is out of the general line of
travel, and attention was not directed to 1t
during the insurrection; its people were
pacifcos.
Yet here is one of the most fertile valleys
In the Philippines. Perhaps it is among the
richest in the world. For q period of more
imam l4O years TOBACCO mas been raised on
the OVERLOOKED lands of the valley without
artificial fertilization. 1t is the custom of
the Cagayans to raise one crop of tobacco
and one crop of corn on the same land in
one year. In two succeeding years two
crops of tobacco and three crops of corn
have been produced from the same SOIL
The bulk of the tobacco in the Cagayan
Is raised like so much hay. Little attention
is given to the details of curing and har-
vesting, which in the case of so intricate
crop demand both scientific and expert
enced treatment Most of the good tobacco
land is the overfiowed land, which consists
mainly of small pockets. belts and patches,
with occasionally greater areas of level
land lying along the bed of the Cagayan
river and its tributaries. and which doubt
less formed the bed of the river IT an
early period.

Food for Babies.
From Harper's Bazaar.

from Harper Bazaar.
Do not at any time force or urge milk
OF solid food upon the child; If he should
refuse part or the whole of a feeding. let
that meal go, and do not give any food
until the next feeding hour comes.
For the first twenty-four hours after
birth very little food is necessary: feed the
infant about once in five hours. If II is
possible, the baby should be nursed by the
mother, as the nourishment it receives from
her contains certain ingredients which are
necessary to cleanse the stomach and in
testinal tract of the newly-born, as well as
to stimulate the digestive juices to ac-
tivity If for some good reason 1t is not
possible for the mother to nurse her child,
give as a substitute a little boiled water
slightly sweetened or thin cruel dextri-
nized. After, the first thirty-six hours milk
can be given in dilute form. Cows milk
can be diluted, plain. or in the form of top

MISSING FOR FOUR WEEKS
Cir! Who Was Held Up by Man
She Heard Talking OF Crime
Receives a Warning.
FATHER OFFERED HIS FORTUNE
When DR.. Marvin Realized What Had
Happened to His Child He
Published a Reward Of
$4,000.
FATHER OFFERED HIS FORTUNE

The missing Marvin child has
been found, according to the detect
ives employed on the case, and all
Dover is rejoicing. The father of'the
child has had a curious life of adj
versity, one misfortune following an
other with remarkable rapidity.
DOVER, Del, March 3O.-Detectives who
have been engaged in the search for Hor-
ace N Marvin, jr-. the missing son of DR..
Horace N. Marvin, announced late last
night that the child had been found.
This announcement caused a great SEN
sation in this city. Hundreds started for
the vicinity were crowded. Nothing definite
could be learned as all of the principals
were busy on the case.
Additional interest In the case that has
been the talk of this place for a month was
manifested when it was learned that Miss
Lucy Killen, the school teacher. who was
held up by two rough-looking men she
overheard discussing the crime, had found
note pinned on the door of her school
house reading:
Beware. You told"
She found that the schoolhouse had been
entered and something burned in the large
stove. She said:
All the ashes had been raked cut of the
stove and scattered all over the place. The
were torn and the outer vestibue door was
left open. L was not half so frightened
when those men stopped me in the woods,
and then allowed me to go, as when l saw
that school room. and l broke down en-
tireiy. l have not been able to eat or
sleep. and that caused me to give way
even quicker.

the authorities. and he also took the note
which he unpinned from the door, I was
almost struck down with terror II
Miss Killen's statement is corroborated
by two Of the children in the school, who
We're accompanying the teacher.
II saw at a glance that somebody had
| broken into the schoolhouse," said Miss
Kilen. They had pried open a window
shutter and had raised a window which
had been held down by a long nail On
the door they had pinned note which
l have been called upon to turn over to the
school commissioners. 1t said: Beware
| You told
The detectives and newspaper men did
not lose minute, after Miss KiIlen's most
| remarkable story came in. in setting out to
the schoolhouse, near DR.. Marvins home
stead. and laid plans to picket the clumps
of woods. and proceed without horses OF
carriages as stealthiiy as possible before
making their search of the rined school
room.

Alcohol the Future Motor Fuel.
Both those who ride In automobiles and
those who walk are watching with inter-
est the tests of alcohol as a motor fuel
The former because they see in it a more
eff Gle mt and less expensive fuel than gaso-
hae. the latter because it's combustion
pl oduces none of the choking odors hitherto
inseparably associated with the motor car
A prominent authority states that under the
lately adopted free alcohol law this is to
be the fuel of the future, at any rate for
low-speed commercial use.
Testing With a Hydrostatic Level.
A Massachusetts man who was having a
60x10O-foot shop erected wished to test the
accuracy OF the construction. At each
corner of the walls he placed a water pail
and also placed one midway of each 100-foot
wall. Then he placed 100 feet Of piping
midway between the two rows of pals and
ran branch pipes from it crosswise to con-
meet each pair of pals with the main line,
and, through this, with the other pals.
Water was poured into the system, and
when the liquid assumed its level in the six
pals. says the American Machinist, II was
found that one corner Of the building was

found to be slightly defective.
Cultivation of Rubber.
The cultivation of rubber trees Is on
the increase. and rubber may at no dis
tant time become entirely a plantation
product. 1t is said that there are in Cey-
Ion over 100000 acres which have been
planted in rubber, and in the Malay pen
Ursula about half as much more. 1t is es-
timated that Mexico has about 1000
acres planted in rubber, making in all
about 2T5, 900 acres, which should produce
before long about one-quarter of the world.
probable consumption. The results from
these plantations seem to have been so
successful that the work might be enlarged,
as this would not only render us less de-
pendent upon the natural forests. but
would stimulate the Brazilian rubber-pro-
ducing states to begin artificial cultivation
there.
