Rarest Bird In Cuba.

The rarest of all birds in Cuba is
the ara tricolor, commonly known
as the Cuban macaw. Its habitat is
the swamps, and the following gen
eral description will illustrate its
beauty: Forehead, red, becoming
yellowish on top and shading into
bright yellow on the neck; back
feathers, cinnamon edged with
green; under parts, scarlet, with a
dash of orange on the throat; sec
ondary feathers, bright blue on the
upper surface, pale brown under
meath; legs, brown; eyes, yellow.
Seen in the dusk resting on the lily
pads Of swamp, the ara tricolor is
one of the handsomest specimens of
the bird life to be found in any land
or any cline.

Walkinq.

Firm, regular steps are said to
denote a steady, reliable nature,
while ierky, uneven movements in
dlcate the reverse, The energetic
person walks quickly and stops sud
denly. The dreamer saunters along
with slow, distracted mien. The
obstinate man goes straight ahead,
refusing to turn aside for anybody.
On the other hand, the person who
is ready to step out of any ones
way is not necessarily weak willed.
He may be afflicted with too much
courtesy. The long, swinging step
usually marks the generous, broad
minded person, while the small, pet
ty tread shows the walker to be of
a mean and narrow character. This
last rule applies, of course, far
more to men than to women"

Salt is a most necessary article
Of food says a we'll known scien-
tlst. "All races of mankind, either
civilized or in a savage state, have
the same regard for salt. In parts
Of central Africa the natives regard
salt as a luxury and will willingly
do much to obtain it. So much do
they like the taste of salt that the
ashes of the burnt yeldt grass are
used to season their meat. These
ashes contain saltpeter, which i'm
parts the coveted flavor to food.
Animals, too, are fond of salt. In a
wild state they will readily go to a
spring the water of which has been
salted. Sportsmen know this and
use it as a bait"

A GREAT GAME.
Walking Suits Every Mood, softsns
Trouble and Tempers Sorrow.

Trouble and Iempers SORROW
There is no substitute for the
art of walking. 1t permits no prox-
les. Books may be retold by the
reader, sermons repeated by the
hearer, pictures may be described
by the art critics or the humber
visitor. No one can portray the
pleasures of walking, nor can its add
vantages be secured at second hand.
1t must be ones own individual en-
ployment. Walking is game for any
mood. The sad, the downhearted,
the exultant, the serenely content,
all, and those in any other mental
condition, may find satisfaction in
wandering out upon the earth.
Walking softens sorrow, tempers
trouble and adds halo unto happi-
ness. 1t gives health and vigor to
body and mind. Many headache
GAS been chased away by walking
and many heartache lifted or
Ightened. The best thing for the
inside of a man is the outside of the
earth. Unlike other games, walk
ing may be played in company or
alone. 1t may be for one, two or
more. 1t is at its best, of course,
when played by two who are really
one. Yet a solitary journey is bet
ter far than d continual stay in the
house at toll or in company gay.
Better loaf and invite ones soul
than work or play oyermuch and
leave ones spirit atrophied. Sun
shine and fresh air are twin agents
in the promotion of happiness and
health and peace.
Every man who walks should be
a lover. He should be not merely
a lover of his companion, but of the
birds and buzzing bees, the burst
ing leaves and the blue ceiling of
the sky beyond. One may walk in
winter days full of frost and in
summer when the days are full of
fire. IT'S in the years rosy dawn,
when nature is robing in garments
of green and gold, that she gives
most of her beauty to him who
loves and worships her. The man
who slowly walks adown the street
or through the country fields may
then, if ever, look through the ma
ture up to the natures God.-Wal-
ter Williams in Columbia Herald

THE AGE OF CHIVALRY.
II Is Now Rather Than In the Days Of
Knights Errant.

When we speak of the age of
chivalry we are apt to imagine the
existence at an earlier period of a
finer sense of honor, of loftier
ideals, of subhmer courage and of
more devoted unselfshness than are
found in the practical workaday
world of today. AS a matter of fact,
every gentil parft knights such
as Chaucer describes, who rode
about with squlres, rescuing dis
tressed damsels and redresslng
wrongs generally, were very few
The age was comparatively harsh
and cruel one. Oppression and ylo-
lence prevailed, and human rights
and justice were little regarded.
Poverty was more general and the
condition of the poor more abject
than anything we know, and the
richest enjoyed little Of the comfort
which is today well nigh universal.
People were supposed to bear the
ills to which they were born, and all
the efforts of a dozen knights in
mail and plumed helmets did not
go as far toward alternating misery
in month as do the mlnistrations
of a single visiting nurse now. We
live in an age of chivalry vastly ex-
banded Where there was one work
er for others in the knights days,
there are a hundred now, and
chivalry permeates the spirit of all
the good causes which enlist so
many willing hands.
Between the tenth and four
teenth centuries it was but in the
bud. Now it is in flower, and later
on the full harvest of fruitage will
come. There never was time when
there was such universal war against
oppression of the weak and helpless,
when every form of cruelty was so
Indignantly frowned upon, when
womanhood and childhood were
more sturdily championed and pro-
tected, when the poor and sick were
SO tenderly regarded and cared for
or when the lower animals were
made the object of such solicitude
and shelter from harm and suffer-
ing. There never was a time when,
at peace as we are with all the
world, there were more constant ex-
hibitions of quiet, modest courage
and splendid heroism than are con-
stantly occurring in the records of
our daily lives. In all sorts of acct
dents-by fire and flood, by the
forces of nature, by travel and by
the operation of great industries
there is always some one ready, gen.
orally some unknown, unheralded
person, to risk his life in order to
save others. If that isn't chivalry
there never was such a thing. We
do not yet by any means possess all
the virtues, but courage and I'M
selfish devotion in times of stress
are very good to build on.-Wash-
ington Post.

a total altitude of 480 feet The
biggest are the mammoth trees of
California, some of which are 276
to 376 feet in height and lO8 feet
IN circumference at the base. From
measurements of the rings it is be-
heYed that some of these trees are
from 1000 to $500 years old. The
Oldest tree in the world is said to
be on the island of Kos, OF the

A sharks egg is one of the most
odd looking things imaginable and
has no more resemblance to an ego,
strictly speaking, than it has to a
paving stone. In one variety it is
pillow shaped and has long "horn"
or "feeler" at each corner. 1t is
about two inches long and the color
almost pure black, 1t is unprovided
with shell, as we understand that
word, but the contents are protect
ed by thick, leathery covering
which has almost as much elasticity
about it as a covering of rubber
would have. The "feelers" men
toned catch hold of and wind them
selves around pieces of seaweed and
other floating objects and hang un-
til the egg is Matched. One variety
of the shark lays eighteen eggs dur
ing the month of April. These float
about until early in December,
when the little sharks emerge.

Ihe Cotton Plant.

So far as we know, the cotton
plant originated in India, probably
IN Mandalay The earliest writings
Of that country, dating back as far
as 600 B. c., speak of the manufac-

speaks of trees in India that bear
a white fleece like wool" He had
IN mind the cotton plant. Cotton
was cultivated by the Peruvians and
Mexicans before the discovery of
America, as the records clearly
show.-New York American

Cash In Advance.

An order of the post-ofice depart
ment promulgated on December 4
denies to publishers the privilege of
sending copies to subscribers as such
after specified term following the ex-
piration of the subscription.
Hereafter publishers of weekly
news papers cannot carry subscribers in
arrears more than one year; semi-week-
lies more than nine months; tri-weeklieS
longer than six months, and dailieS
longer than three months For each
violation the publishers will be fined /
cent for each four ounces. Since the
average newspaper weighs four ounces
or less, each paper sent to subscriber
in arrears for a longer period than in
dicated will cost the publishers cent
fine.
The law is good one The Enter
prise has never inforced the cash system
but it ought to be enforced, and now it
seems Uncle Sam will enforce it.
1t will cost So cts. year more to
send weekly, $1.52 year more to
send thrice weekly and 1912 more for
the paper published 6 times per week
and $3.65 per annum on the daily lin
Guiding Sunday publications.
Of course no paper will stand for
that, no subscriber will be willing to pay
the difference.
THE RESULT THEN is INEVI-
TABLE: CASH IN ADVANCE is the
remedy.
What are you going to do about it?
Dear subscriber!
