An Angry Elephant.

A sentinel in the menagerie at Paris
has had curious experience with one
of the largest elephants. The sentinel
was very conscientious and always re-
quested the spectators not to give the
animals anything to eat, which seemed
to displease the elephant in question to
such: an extent that he several times
sprinkled the sentrys head with water
from his trunk. One day bystander
offered this particular elephant a large
cake The sentinel interfered, as
usual, and the elephant promptly dis
charged in his face violent stream of
water. A general laugh ensued, but
the sentinel, having calmly wiped his
face, stood on one side and continued
as watchful as before. Soon after
ward he found it necessary to repeat
his admonition, but no sooner was this
uttered than the elephant laid hold Of
his musket, twirled it round his trunk,
trod it under his feet and did not re-
store it until he had twisted it into
nearly the form of a corkscrew. Then
he gave a snort at the discounted
sentinel, as if to say, 5Now 1 hope
you'll mind your own businessw

Woman the TOUGHER Sex.

Although men, as they run, are per-
haps muscularly stronger than women,
their inability to Withstand the ele-
ments and their reliance upon clothes
place them considerably below the so
called weaker sex in the matter Of un-
clothed toughness. Women wear clothes
for ornament. Men use them as pro-
tect1ve covering: A group Of men ma
rooned clotheless on an island in the
temperate zone might be expected to
die off in a month from drafts and
colds and rheumatism. The health Of
women similarly placed would suffer
little from the enforced exposure. The
fact appears to be, therefore, that In
everything but muscle-in vitality, rug
gedness, character, disposition, brain
power, etc.-woman is the tougher, not
the weaker, sex.-Kansas City Journal.

A Neiqhinq Cock.

Camden says the Thames was once
called the Cockney, and therefore a
cockney means simply one who lives
on the banks of the Thames. Wedg-
wood says a cockney, or cockerney, is
one pampered by city indulgence, in
contradistinction to rustics hardened
by outdoor work. There is, however,
legend, almost too good to be true
namely, that Londoner who had
never before slept out of sound Of
Bow Bells had occasion to go into the
country and was detained all night
he was much disturbed by the lowing
Of the cattle, the grunting of the pigs
and other sounds of country life, which
he could not understand, and in par
ticular he was frightened by the crow
ing Of the cock. In the morning, in
response to the farmers inquiries, he
said the sound Of the wild beasts had
kept him awake. Just at that mo-
ment the cock crowed again, and the
Londoner said: "That's the one! He's
been neighing like that for hoursw
Since then Londoners have been called
cockneighs or cockneys.

The Pvthon.

Contrary to general belief, the py-
thon or boa constructor rarely attacks
people and is looked upon very differ
emily by the people from the hama
dryad and cobra. The python will
take up his abode in a neighborhood
and will not disturb anything except
the henroosts. These he disturbs very
much, as he has a great fondness
for chickens; also for a stray dog or
small goat. I know of one case, how
ever, In a floating house where a py-
thon attacked woman and, contrary
to the preconceived idea, did not crush
her in his folds, but attempted to
swallow her, commencing with one of
her feet. When she was rescued her
foot and ankle were badly lacerated
by the snakes teeth. The Chinese kill
the python to make medicine from the
liver, which has a high repute among
them. They also use the dried skin
for medicine. Any Chinese drug shop
In Siam will have number Of python
skins for sale.-Medical Journal.

LOWER COURT REVERSED
Railroads Must Treat All Shippers on
Equal Terms,

Richmond, Va, Sept. 1S.-Declaring
that a railroad must give all shippers
the same transportation treatment
whether it owns all or only part of
the cars it carries the United States
circuit court of appeals reversed the
decision of the United States circuit
court of Maryland in the suit of the
Pitcairn Coal company against the
Baltimore and Ohio Railway company,
the Cumberland and Pennsylvania
Railroad company, the Fairmount Coal
company and thirty other coal COM
panies.
The complainants alleged that they
were Disseminated against in the dis
tribution of coal cars by the defend
ants, especially the Baltimore and
Ohio. Judge Pritchard, delivering the
opinion, held that the interstate com.
merce law "casts upon the carrier the
plain duty of furnishing fair and
equal distribution of car facilities and
this duty cannot be evaded by the car
rier claiming that it is not the owner
of a portion of the cars carried over
its lines" ~. ~
The case was remanded to the Mary
land circuit court. -~

Sallyis Iron.

In describing some of her assotiates

Holland. She had an extraor rdinarily
open mind, writes Miss Terry, and
was ready to grasp each new play as
it came along as a separate and entire.
ly different field Of operations.
She was extremely methodical and
only got furried once in a blue moon.
When we W ent to America and made
the acquain tance of that dreadful
thing, a zone night stand" she was as
precise and particular about having
everything nice and in order for me
as if we were going to stay in the town

of white drugget. All the lights in

1 wished. Everything was unpacked
and ironed.

Sally nearly in tears.

Telephone Manners.

Do telephones lead to politeness or
otherwise? When they first came into
use the answer to this question would
have been emphatically in the mega
tive, but now that they are almost uni
versally prevalent an era of good
manners and ''thank you's" seems to
be in full swing. In some communities
it is not even possible to quarrel over
the telephone, although the two women
who took part in the following CONVEX
sation came near it:
''Hello! Is this Mrs. Weston?" --
"Yes."
.'This is your next door neighbor,
Mrs. Lawrence. 1 thought you might
be interested to know that at the pres
ent moment your son Thomas is sitting
on one Of the sheets which are bleach
ing on my lawn and is building large
pile of mud on it,

claimed the mother. "And may I re-
turn the favor by informing you that

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.
Don t Mistake the Cause Of Your Trou-

How to Cure Them.

Many people never suspect their
kidney. IF suffering from lame,
weak or aching back they think that
it is only a muscular weakness;
when urinary trouble sets in they
think it will soon correct, itself. And
SO it is with all the other symptoms
of kidney disorders. That is just
where the danger lies. You must
cure these troubles or they may lead
to diabetes or Bright's disease. The
best remedy to use is Doan's Kid
ney Pills. It cures all ills which
are caused by weak or diseased
kidneys. Bemidji people testify to
permanent cures. -
Mrs. E. E. Hanks, living at 223
Park Ave-, Bemidji, Mimi, says: Il
have used Doan's Kidney Pills and
the relief I received from their use
was very great. There was dull
pain in the small of my back, which
caused me much suffering and L
became so dizzy at times that dark
objects would float before my eyes.
Hearing about Doan's Kidney Pills

Store and felt much better in every
