THE SHREW MOUSE.
Some Queer Superstitions About n
Harmless Little Animal.

Some Queer SuperstitiOns About n
Harmless Little Animal.
The shrew. or shrew mouse. as 1t is
commonly called. is found in nearly all
parts of the world 1t is distinguished
by an elongated, pointed muzzle. small
eyes, plantigrade. six toed feet and
glands that secrete a musky fluid Al
together it closely resembles a mouse.
but it is really not related to the mouse
family.
When at home it Is either under
pile Of rubbish or in hole which 1t
has burrowed In the earth. 1t is
nocturnal in it's habits. but perfectly
harmless. yet at one time it was much
disliked and prosecuted because 1T was
thought to be dangerous, mischievous
animal. Among the Italians the notion
was prevalent that the bite Of shrew
was extremely poisonous. The French
and the English believed that if a
shrew ran over an animals foot the
animal felt great pain and eventually
became paralyZed: hence II a horse. a
cowlf a goat became little stiff in it's
limbs the foolish people at once declar-
ed ii "shrew struck" and the poor
shrews had to suffer in consequence.
OF course the "shrew struck" animal
had to have something to cure 1t. so
an ash tree was selected. and deep
hole was bored into its trunk. Then q
shrew was captured. put alive into the
hole. the hole was securely plugged,
and the innocent little animal was left
to die Of starvation.
The ignorant believed that after such
an act the ash tree had power to cure
"shrew struck" animals. and whenever
an animal became inactive or a little
numb in its limbs its owner hurried to
the "shrew ash" cut switch from 1t
and switched the ''shrew struck" beast.
The smarting caused by the switching
naturally made the helpless animal
move about as much as it possibly
could and in a short time it was pro-
nounced cured.

Orange peel thrown on an open fire
gives forth pleasing odor in the
room.
Keep all the kitchen utensils in one
place, and small one at that. 1t will
save time and steps.
A weak solution Of turpentine
poured down the water pipes once a

When a cracked egg must be boiled
add teaspoonful Of salt to the water
and 1t will cook without losing any Of
the white or albumen.
Have a short piece of hose to at.
tach to the water faucet and extend to
the washtubs to fill them and save
time, lifting and backache.
For a sweet sandwich try chopped
figs and dates moistened with q little
lemon Juice. Chopped nuts added to
this make 1t very delicious.
When nnoleum begins to show wear,
paint the surface with good quality
floor varnish and allow 1t a longer
time to dry than would be necessary

Americans who seek to do business
in Cuba are confronted with peculiar
variety Of neutrality-suspicious. Of

merce and labor issues a warning to
all manufacturers who have any

IL they do not Immediately register

Spectators are using the trade
marks of popular American goods, and
the manufacturer Of the genuine arti-
Gle when he enters the Cuban market

he has a hold on the American manu-
facturer, and he may demand and col.

In winter the palm should be kent
in light place in the house, but
Should not have too much sun.
once a week the entire pot should
DO thoroughly immersed in a bucket
or tub OF water and allowed to soak
over night, giving the water ample
opportunity to soak to it's center.
Next morning take the pot out of
the water and allow it to drain a
while, and do not give ii any more
water for three days, then let it have
a drink every morning until time for
its next bath.
BY carefully following this plan you
Will be surprised to see the beautiful
ulster which the large glossy leaves
will show, and you will not be an
noyed with the leaves falling off.
II there are worms in the earth give
the plant a liberal soaking with soap
suds and you will see the worms come
weighing out in great hurry, when
they may be easily removed.
A little lime water will answer the
purpose just as well and will not in
jure the plant. The leaves should be
cleaned daily with soft damp cloth
and the dust not allowed to accumu,
late on them.
Nowadays, when palms are much
sought after, word as to the best
treatment of them may be needed
Palms are very easy plants to grow
They should have a soil of heavy
loam, moist but never wet. The drain
age must be good.
Few plants are happier under deep
shade, and in very humid atmos.
phere during at least eight months
out of year.
Palms should be kept entirely free
OF insects. Aphides will seldom trou-
bic them, but scales and mealie bugs
will They can be kept down by
washing once week in a strong fir.
soap suds bath.
Do not keep your palms away from
the light all the time. It is a good
plan to have several plants. Some
can be used in decorating the rooms,
while others are fecuperating at the
windows.
Palms and rubber plants demands
are very great in the growing period,
and fertilizers should be generously
used. AS the plants extract nutri-
ment very rapidly from the soil they
should frequently be repotted. The
secret Of the successful growth OF
the rubber plant consists in feeding it
well when it is growing, and never
allowing it to become root-bound. Rub.
Der plants also require great deal
of light, and It will not do well when
placed far from tie window.

First Airship Experlmenters.

There is little, except the method of
imitation, that distinguishes the bal
loon of the twentieth century from the
machine used by NJ. Pilatre de Rozier,
the first man to trust himself in a
balloon, in October, 1888. One of his
great triumphs was to hover over
Paris at the height of 800 feet for a
space Of nine minutes. NJ PlIatre
achieved all his efforts by means Of
hot air produced by a fire which he
carried in the balloon itself, and was
almost as daring as an Italian phil
osopher who took flight on a pair of
wings Of his own construction from the
summit of the castle of Stirling in
presence of King James ". of Scot
land. That courageous experimenter,
when picked up from the ground with
broken leg, accounted for the col
lapse of his wings by exclaiming to the
sympathetic courtiers that he had
made a mistake il taking some of his
feathers from the creatures of the
barnyard, whose inclination was to-
ward the earth. Had he selected them
from creatures with heavenly ten
dency like the eagle, the experiment
would have been successful He was
believed, and suitably rewarded.

The kitchen part of this house is a

the pantry with its double doors to

Vincent and the Vehicles.

Freight conductors, upon starting
out on their runs, leave with the tel
egraph operator a list of cars in their
trains. This list shows the destina-
ton of all cars and the contents of
loaded equipment" said T. ]. Carey, a
Kansas City railroad man. "The list
is called consist or 'sist,' for short.
Wick Vincent was conductor on one
of the preferred runs when I was dis
patching on the Pacific. Vick's weak
spot was spelling. One day his con-
sist' contained one item which the op.
orator insisted was I Veikles Pueblo"
When the train arrived and Wick
came in to register, I bantered him
about it, and, pointing to the word,
asked what it meant.
"What does it mean?" he Queried.
"Sure it must mean what it says
One vehicles, Pueblo!'
"eThat's a new way to spell We
hicles, Wick. said L.
Well" he returned, If that don't
spell vehicles what in thunder does it
speII?'"
