How a Flea Jumps,

1t is said that a flea leaps 200 times
Its height, and, while 1t usually does
land on its feet, 1t often falls, especial
ly when 1t falls on a perfectly smooth
surface where the claws can get only
a slight hold. A flea has six legs,
whose great length and bulk make
them so heavy that they must be a
great help In keeping their owner right
side up when it makes one Of these
gigantic jumps, and when 1t lands up
side down or In some other way its
ability to kick is so great that not
more than one wriggle is needed to
set things right A iea's wings are
mere scales and Of no use; but, small
and worthless as they are, they tell
the entomologist something about the
proper classification of the insect. To
the flea itself they have no value.

Toothblacks,

"As we have bootblacks 30 they've
got toothblacks In the Sunda islands,"
said travelling man.
"What is a toothblack"
Don't YOU know? A toothblack is
an old woman with a pot Of black
paint, gold leaf book and a set Of
vegetable brushes. From hut to hut
she passes, and for small fee-a yam,
a bunch of bananas, three cocoanuts-
she paints the Sunda islanders teeth
a glistening blaek-all but the two
front teeth. These she gllds. And the
Sunda islander thereafter goes about
with a self conscious smile revealing
a truly knock-me-down dental display,
a black and gold symphony. 1t is q
common trick among the semicivilized
to color the teeth. In Macassar dark
brown is the popular hue, and in japan
among the unenlightened classes the
teeth of wives are always painted
black. In such countries the tooth
black is an institution. She goes from
house to house as full OF gossip as a
barber" - New Orleans Times-DsmO-

MUZZLING Of DOGS

Why Such an Order

The letter from the President 20 the
Commissioners suggesting that immedi-
ate action should be taken looking 10
the muzzling Of dogs in tho District OF
Columbia was made public at the
White House today The letter con-
nrms the statements repeatedly made
tn The Times that the number Of cases
of rabies Ga the District almost amount
cd 20 an epidemic The President said:
Gentlemen:
Il have just been consulting with Dr.
Iohler OF the. Department OF Agricul-
ture. He informs me that he has neyc-
In his experience here known of a.
many cases of rabies among dogs as at
present, and he regards the danger as
reaI-especIaIly to Children-in view OF
the fact that tomorrow the public
schools viii close and the children will
then be out on the streets.
1T is my judgment based upon the
opinion Of those most competent to eN-
press such an opinion, that what Is
needed is provision for the muzzlng Of
dogs while at large for the next six
months.
Il think your commission should
pass this resolution.
..Nviu YOU let me know ~ the com
mission consents to pass such a TesO-
luton, and If it does not, what are
the reasons which outweigh the reason
why It should be passed?
Action, in my judgement. should BIZ
