Paroxysm Of laughter.

Eight hours Of hearty laughter, with
scarcely minutes rest, nearly killed Miss
Barbara Barr, a member OF the Baptist
Church choir at Florence, n. j. Miss
Barr was visiting friends when some one
made a witty remark which aroused the
mir,h of all those present. Alter a few
minutes Miss Barr found il was impossl-
BILE to stop laughing. Her laughter
could be heard block away. All kinds
of plans 10 stop her were tried, but with
oui success. Two doctors were summon
I'd and the exhausted and semi-co0scious
girl was conveyed to her home. Until
10 O'Clock at night she continued, and
the physicians were unable to cope with
the case Miss Barr grew weaker every
minute, but still laughing she sank into
slumber and the spell gradually passed
away. When she swoke the effect Tor
some time rendered her helpless. She
does not remember the joke.

PIGEON POST IN CONGO.

News has been received of the suc- cessful results of the experiments with the pigeon post in the French Congo. The birds are found to afford much more satisfactory means of communi- cation than the telegraph, which is so frequently disturbed by natives or ele- plants that knock down the poles or even than wireless telegraphy, since the humidity and electricity in the air in Africa initiate against the success of this form of news sending,
 Some hundreds of pigeons and a pigeon loft were taken out to Africa last year by Maj Reynaud, member of the French Geographical society, who accompanied the mission of Dr, Martin to study the sleeping sickness. The pigeon home was set up at BrazZa- vile, and the post is now working with excellent results over a radius from this spot of 375 miles.
 Lieut., Gremillet, who has set up a station some 125 miles from Brazza- vile, sends daily communications by this means and other military and colonial officials frequently use the car rier pigeons. It is now proposed to es- tabish a series of pigeon posts about 12J to 200 miles from each other, and it is reckoned that by a system of re- lays a dispatch by pigeon could be sent quite 75O miles in one day,-St Louis Republic.

 are in physical control of their respec- tive properties, and Commodore Morse

A GOOD MANY BABIES
 VERY USEFUL IN EGYPT They Are Welcome and Appreciated in That
 Country. NO RACE SUICIDE THERE The Babies Do Not Cry Much and Begin Active
 Life Early.

There is no race suicide in Egypt, From Alexandria to Assuan, the coun- try is filled with babies, round faced, solemn little tykes, who look out upon the world with great eyes that are painted with kola.
 As in all Oriental countries, chill dren in Egypt are welcomed. The more the merrier, says Leslie's Week y. The wife is not even considered a true wife until She becomes mother. So highly are babies esteemed in that strange country of the Nile that in the days before slavery was abol- ished a slave who contributed to het masters family circle child which he acknowledged as his own thereby earned her freedom, according to the law; and in the majority of instances she was further honored by being talk l en as her masters wife, or one ol them, and becoming entitled to the luxuries of the harem.
 So frequently do babies come ant so numerous are their deaths that the Egyptian government has never beer able to procure a census that was a all satisfactory, and even the recen attempt made this year cannot be ac cepted as an official statement of thu countrys population, In Egyp
 births and deaths are not recorded except in the memories of those i'm medlately concerned.
 Three characteristics of Egyptian babies impress themselves upon tht tourist. The first is their beauty for, although many of them are bllnC or nearly so from uncleanllness ant Iophthalmia, they are all round faced and exquisitely modelled, their feat ures are classieally beautiful and thelI color is exactly like bronze.
 Self-control is the next most i'm pressive feature about these llttlt folk for it is most unusual thing t, hear an Egyptian baby cry. Noticea bIe also, is these little ones useful
 ness. It would take a very indiffer
 ent person indeed to fail to notice tn infant toilers in Egypt. Not so mucl
 in Cairo or in the other large settle
 ments, but in the stretches of coun try between.
 From the boat on the Nile or tn lrailroad one will see babies of two an
 a half and three years tending flock
 of goats, and tots that are too smaI
 to make known their wants in intel
 llgible language seem to be putterin
 about, assisting in their small way i
