Or. Alexander Schaefer. a noted
scientist, says cattle have the sharp
est sight. the second place being by
man and the horse which have nearly
equal visual power. Sheep do not
see as we'll as cattle or horses. Owls
and buzzards possess great acuteness
of vision. Dogs have such poor sight
that. as rule. they are not able to
recognize their masters by sight
alone.

HOME HINTS.

To clean silver with deep engraving
use paste made of whiting and am
monia. Apply with brush.
To avoid washing the molding board
lay over it a sheet Of heavy glazed
wrapping paper. If well Toured,
doughs are less liable to stick to it than
to the board.
Never use soap in washing silk stock
ings. Bran in water is the proper fluid
to use-four tablespoonfuls to quart
of water. Rinse in several clear wa
tiers, pressing the water out. Dry stock
ings in the sun.
The housekeeper has often noticed
that cooking utensils and knives fire.
quently retain the odor of mackerel
and other fish after thorough wash
ing. Rub the utensils and knives and
forks with fresh earth.

The experiment was conducted on
 a small tract O typical wet lands that had been drained, located in the vicinity of Raceland. The first cutting has just been made, and the mint treated by distillation to secure oil of peppermint. the only shape in which the product of m. mt farm has commercial value. Mint experts declare the oil to be of the highest grade. and as two or three cutting are possible every year, 100 pounds of oil to the acre IS named as a conservative esti- mate of the yield. Oil of pepper mint sells today at $1.5O pound, but the declaration is made that it can be produced on Louisiana lands at profit of 50 cents pound, and any such price as that would drive all the other growers of the coun- try out of business unless they re- moved to Louisiana.

How to Know a Mad Dog.

Hydrophobia is in reality so rare and so terrifying that it's symptoms and treatment are little understood. As a matter of fact, the commonly accepted expression of madness in a dog is misleading. The real mad dog does not shun water, as it is said. On the contrary, mad dogs often rush to the water and drink eagerly. if they are able to swallow. The mad dog does not froth at the mouth. It does not run amuek. snapping at everything in it's path. What, then. are the indications of the mad dog? To those familiar with given dog the surest symp- toms ard the one which would ex- cite closest attention is a distinct and unaccountable change in the dog s disposition-a staid dog be- coming excitable and a risky one dull. That condition does not necessarily mean rabies. but it is suspicious. and if. in addition, the dog has trouble in swallowing as though it seems to have a bone in it's throat-beware!- Commercial Appeal.

S35,OO0 FIRE AT ffLSfNTHAL.
Big Bank Building Completely Destroyed
 tuesday Morning.

That it was the intention of some unknown party to virtually wipe the town of FeIsenthal off the map early last Tuesday morning is evi- dent from the occurrences which took place there.
 About 80 o'clock a. m. on that date Mrs. Johnson, who resides near the bank building, discovered the upper story to be on fire and gave the alarm which was taken up by J. H. Kistler. J. T. Harris. nightwatchman at the blaming mill, and the extra bridge gang for the E. & B. Ky. whose cars were on the planer track.
 As soon as the shooting aroused the residents a number of men were on the ground and succeeded in saving the mail and fixtures of the postoffice which was located in the rear of Basham & Cos. store, about $500 worth of furni- ture etc, therefrom and probably $4oO worth of clothing out of the Felsenthal Dry Goods company's store.
 While tn, bank building was burning word was brought that the residence of Ike Felsenthal was on fire and as nothing could be done to save the hrick the crowd went im- msdiately to MT. Felsenthal's .es- idenee which they found burning from a fire started on the rear porch from pile of oil-soaked ex- eelsior and wood. Quick and rap i'd work on top of effective work already done by the ladies of the neighborhood they saved the resi- dence after probably $l5o damage was done.
 A pile of oil-soaked excelsior was also found after the excitement subsided under the rear steps of pr. J. P. Pasham's new $5,OOO residence. just across the street from 1. .Felsenthal' which leads them to believe that slip in the plans of the fire bug is all that pre- vented it being fired also.
 Ths loss sustained is estimated at something like $55,OOO with probably $l8,oOO insurance. The following were the sufferers:
 Basham & Company, loss $6,- 900. insurance $5,OOO.
 Felsenthal Dry Goods Company. loss $12,ooo; insurance $7.O0O.
 Bank of Felsenthal $1,OOO, if the vault proved fire proof; insur- ance $1 ,OOO..
 Felsenthal Land and Townsite Company, owners of the building, loss, $15,OOO; insurance $8,OOO.
 L. B. Felsenthal and Theo. B. Milkey, who roomed over the bank, lost all their personal effects and room furnishings. Loss in each case about $50; no insurance.

 The perpertrator of the crime had no doubt been watching for a favorable opportunity to accomp- fish his work as Lee Felsenthal and Theo. Milkey, the two young men who roomed upstairs, were both out of town Monday night, Lee having been in Hot Springs the past week and Theodore hav- ing went to Bastrop Monday after noon.
 The postoffice was opened as usual Tuesday morning in the brick building used as an office by the Standard Tie company.
 Neither of the burned out firms or Cashier Adolph Felsenthal of the bank, know yet what will be done in regard to opening again. nor can they say until after their losses are adjusted by the .insur- ance companies.
