Men and Their Autographs.

An experienced autograph collector
can almost tell to what profession a
man belongs by the grudgingneSs or
otherwise of his response. Actors and
vOcalists never demur. They rather
seem to like it. Poets and authors of
fiction accede, but with a certain cold
dignity; metaphysicians and philoso-
piers either refuse altogether or COM
ply with bad grace; dramatists not
only send their autographs, but quo
tatiOn from their works as well; peers
sign, but with a stiff and formal hau-
teur; judges and barristers sign in such
way that it is not possible to squeeze
an l. o. L. over the name. In fact.

tiOnS-itS own way of dealing with the

Limited Command.

John Puryear of Richmond was one

when the woods and hills of northerD
Virginia made the picturesque back
ground for some of the hottest encoun-
tiers of the civil war. Puryear was q

put on his first long trousers as a wear

less, he fought like q veteran. He lack
ed veterans balance, for, althOugln
fearless, he had not the slightest judg

which serves equally we'll as a net with
which to scoop up fish and as a bag TO
convey food to its young. When not in
use the bird can contract its pouch SO

Bear Hunting.

Bear hunting, with the assistance of
guides supplied with we'll trained
pack of hounds, may be satisfactory if
merely the killing of them is desired,
but it certainly is no sport and de-
serves not even to be ranked with trap
ping bears, as in the latter case the
hunter must possess at least some
knowledge of the quarry's habitat and
habits. Unlike a fox, a bear, when
once found by the hounds, stands no
chance whatever of escaping, and
there would be just as much sport in
shooting the animals in a park or pen
as to kill run to bay bear. And,
while this truth applies to mountain
lions also, there is not even the eX
cuSe of the animals destructiveness,
which is applicable as far as the lat
ter is concerned.-Fielda and Stream.

Shark Worship In Hawaii.

The shark has been perhaps the
most universally worshiped Of all the
Hawaiian animal gods Strange as IL
may seem, the islanders formerly re-
garded the shark as being the friend
and protector of all those who pay him
devOut attention. Each locality along
the coast Of the main islands Of the
Hawaiian group formerly had its pa
iron shark, whose name, place OF
abode, history, etc, were all well
known to his superstitious worshipers-
The biggest and most celebrated OF
these shark divinities was q male
whose mouth was so large that he
could easily swallow any other shark
known to frequent those waters Ac-
cording to the Hawaiian folklore st0-
ries, the bulk of this god of the sea-
was so great that he could not pass
through the narrOwest channels which
separate the different islands, but
spent his time swimming around the
whole group and looking after the well
fare of the people.

The Poodle.

Why is a poodle, so called? Some
one says: Probably the natural an
Swer would recall the old lady who
said that no credit could be given
to Adam for naming the pig, since
anybody would have known what to
call it. Poodle seems so obvious a
name for this dog. And, in fact, this
is not far from the truth about the
origin of the word. 1t is quite recent
in English, not being found before
1864, apparently. 1t is the German
'pudel,' which comes from the Low
German, 'pudeln,' to waddle, and the
dog must have been so called, as Skeat
says, either because he waddles after
his master or because he looks fat and
clumsy on account of his thick hair"

Goodness of Ice.

1t seems strange to think that some
ice is colder than other ice. The term
ice cold" always seems to signify
definite temperature. All water under
similar conditions freezes at certain
definite Temperatures But when the
thermometer falls below that it con-
tinues to affect the ice, making it hard
er and colder. The test has been made
by placing piece of ice from the
north and piece of ice formed in the
vicinity of New York near a stove to-
gether. The former took much longer
to melt than the latter-New York
