Landseer and the Dog Tax.

On one Of Landseers early visits to
Scotland the great painter stopped at

tice Of the dogs, jotting down rapidly
sketches of them on n piece of paper.
Next day on resuming his journey he
was Mortified to find dogs suspended
from trees in all directions or drown
ing In the rivers. with stones around
their necks. He stopped a weeping
urchin, who was hurrying off with a
pet pup in his arms, and learned to
his dismay that he was supposed to be
an excise officer who was taking notes
of all the dogs he saw in order to prose
cute the owners for unpaid taxes.

Why Negroes Like WatermeIons.

The humorists always associate the
African with the watermelon. assum-
ing that the taste of the colored man
for his favorite dainty arises from his
life In the southern states. where the
melon vine grows like weed. AS a
fact, however, the African taste for
the watermelon is hereditary. The
vine is a native of Africa, where it is
found wild in the great central plains
OF the continent, and has also been cul-
tivated for many ages. In Egypt the
melons grown along the Nile rival
those of southeastern Missouri. The
melons mentioned by the Israelites as
being among the good things they had
in Egypt were undoubtedly watermel-
ons, for in the wall paintings about
the time Of the exodus the melon vine
is represented, and in one case a long
procession of slaves is depicted. each
bearing on his shoulder a huge, dark
green watermelon. - Washington Her.

knew an Indian, Yellow Eagle,
who in order to get his coup feather
dug hole in the ground on the open
prairie far from camp or habitation.
Over it he fixed a covering of brush,
upon which was laid the carcass of a
freshly slain antelope. In this trap he
lay for three days awaiting the eagles
coming. When at last. lured by the
bait, one did alight he seized it from
below, and despite its tapping and
clawing and peclling he plucked the
precious feathers before freeing the as

THE KOOKABURRA.
Australia's Laughing Bird and It's
Startling Cry.

AustraIia's Laughing Bird and Its
Startling Cry.
To the outside world the greatest or
astrological oddly in Australia is the
kookaburra. Though Australians take
little notice of it except occasionally in
hostile way, it's exclamation appeals
irresistibly to the newcomer. Like the
shrikes and parrots, the curlew and
the mopoke, it is a conspicuous figure
in the scenery Of a typical bush home
and therefore too common to be worthy
of notice. In earlier times it was
known as the settlers clock" from q
belief that it's joyful paeans were vent
ed regularly at morn, noon and dusk,
being quiescent through the heat Of the
forenoon and the wane of the after
noon. That belief has long been shat
tered. The kooka burra laughs just
when the fit takes it, particularly when
excited, and it laughs as readily at the
violent death of its mother-in-law as it
does at the enraged settler when he
falls off his haystack. A wounded bird
makes demoniacal row, which will
bring all others within hearing into
the neighboring trees, and these at
once set up an echoing cackle that Is
repeated again and again.
The kookaburra is also known as the
laughing goburra and the laughing
jackass.-Sydney (Australia) Times.
