rnhaooo nnd lin Foil.

General Winfield Scott was rcsponsi- ble for tin foil being wrapped around tobacco. That fact came out iu the legal contest over the win of the ec- centric millionaire tobacco dealer, John Anderson. Early in the forties of the last century Mr. Anderson kept q pop ular cigar store on Broadway. Felix McClosky. for many years the tobac- conist's salaricd companion and agent, testified that one day. in 1S43 he thought, General Scott came into the store and asked Anderson if he couldn't devise some way of keeping tobacco so it would not be affected by age and changes in climates. Ander son thought about it and shortly after hit upon the plan of wrapping cigars and chewing tobacco in tin foil, there by keeping the tobacco moist for a long time. His tin foil covers became popular, and his preserved tobacco was much in demand during inc Mexican war and the California gold rush. swelling his business to enormous pro- portions and soon making him multi millionaire

The Ponr Ensinn.

The following story of German miIi-
 tary ofhcialism is published in Lon don. One Ensign Fiugge claimed com pensation for damage to kit caused by a mouse having gnawed a hole in his best tunic. The officer who had to de eide the point dismissed the claim and ordered the ensign to be severely pun isned on the ground that. contrary to orders, he had hung his best tuHic on nail when going on guard at night in an inferior garment instead of pack ing it in his knapsaek. thus enabling mouse to gnaw a hole in it without baving to overcome the slightest i'm pediment." Ensign Flugge appealed, and on further hearing 1t appeared that the officer who first dealt with the case was mistaken in the facts. the tanic. haviDg been slowed in q kosfsack at the time when tine mouse defaced it and not hung upon nail The first decision was therefore set aside by higher authority, and Ensign Flusge was ordered to be severely punished for having slowed his tunie in his knapsaek instead of hanging it on nail, thereby giving opportunity to the mouse to knaw hole in Il '-un- der cover of the darkness The senti- ments of Ensign FluSge are not re- corded

A comprshensixs Word.

The word "yermin" seems to have become exceedingly comprehensive in scope now that the society which is devoted To the destruction of such creatures has included not only rats. mice. coclroacsics and such small deer among them. but even cats, dogs, spar rows and eanaries. on the ground that all these transmit disease to man. By derirations d.atin .-ycrmis''D yerInin ought 10 mean only worms and the like. in which iiteral sense Tcnnyson writes of the @vermin in mt" But the term has constantly been loosely applied to all sorts ef objectionable animals from croeodiles to foxes.

In. Traces of the Beasts

On every side in the Malay wilds tAc traces of the beasts-which here live as scheduled. as safe from moles- tation, as did their ancestors In pre- Adamite days-arc visible on tree trunk. on beaten game path and on the yielding clay at the drinking places by the hurrying stream. Here q belt of mud nine feet from the ground shows that an elephant has rubbed his itching back against the rough bark of tree. and. see, coarse hairs are still sticking in tEe hardened clay. There long. sharp scratch re- peated at regular intervals marks tine passing of a rhinoceros. Here. again. is the pad mark of tiger barely an hour old. and the pitred tracks of deer nf all sizes and varieties surround the deeply punched holes which are the footsteps of an elephant Ccrnhill Magazine

The Arab Mare.

The Arab is regarded as the first of horsemen and the Arab mare as the perfect steed. The Arabs idea of horse tanning is of the simplest The colt is treated from the first as $ member of the family. 1t goes in and out of the tents and is so familiarized with the doings of that extraordinary creature, man. that there Is never any need of breaking it in. The Besiouin Is very careful of his mare. He does not mount her when he sets out to play his usual tricks upon travellers. He rides camel to which the mare is tethered. Not until the caravan is in sight does he mount the marc and give chase There is, by the way. an impression that the Bedouin is a bloody minded person who would as lief take your life as not This is un- fair to him. He is thief of very peaceful inciinations and much pre- fers to effect any necessary transfer of property with as little bother as pos sible London Graphic.

Lowell together Tennyson Fho was whimsical in his f,rejHdices. made va rious excuses and affected to believe that Mr. Lowell was poet of little importance and an after dinner orator whose graccs of style were ovcrrated- Onc day Mrs. Procter told Mir. Ten nys0n that Mir Lowell had written some lines on her birthday and that she must insist upon reading them to him. The English poet looked at her askancc and submitted with bad grace Mrs. Procter did not go further than the opening line.

Mrs. Procter perseveFed in her efforts to bring the two poets together. and they finally met and became intimate friends.

TORTOISE SHELL.
The Way the Plates Are Removed
 From the Animal.

The comb of tortoise shell has a very pale and translucent yellow. the only really valuable kind of shell.
 Many people think this pale. m mottled shell the cheaper kind" the dealer said. Do you know why? Be
 ause the limitations are ell made like -his.
 That Is one vulgar error about shell. Another k that the tortoise is killed 10 get its shell casing. That is as absurd an error as it would be to say a sheep was killed to get its wool.
 What is done is this: The fisher men. having caught tortoise. tie him and then cover his haef with dry grass and leaves. They set fire to this stun. it burns slowly. and the heat causes the thirteen plates of the shell to loosen at the joints. With 4 knifc the plates are Iiried of. and aftcrward the tortoise is set free. The base. or root of his shen Is intact and will grow again. If tortoises were killed to get their shell they would long since have become extinct.
 ''No, no. Every tortoise is. as it were. t 9arm-a shell farm. Fishermen catch him regularly and with heat and knife gently remove his shen."- New orleans Times Democrat.

WASHINGTON. Jan. I5.-AdmiraI Dewey. president of the general board of the navy has sent to Secretaf Newberry of The navy. a letter in which he cordially approves Of the withdrawal of the marines ,from the ships of the navy recently ordered by che president.
 He says it is the policy of the de partment to employ these men as an integral part of the navy, and war plans are worked out accordingly, but when embarked they will be on the ships and especially to carry expe- dienary forces and advance base ma terial. If there had been 50,0o0 ma rines under his command at Manila bay. the admiral says, the city would have surrendered and there would have been no insurrection.

The Care of ooIdhsh.

The secret of success fin caring for goldfish is to keep the water they are in fresh and sweet. Their globe should be emptied and its water renewed as often as every second day. Lift each fish out gently in a giassful of water.
 empty the globe. wash it ouf. then put in fresh water and put the fish back again. Clear sweet rafnwater should be used, and its temperature should be raised to e or so degrees by warming part of it. Sparkling we'll water is too cold for the fish to thrive in and foo pure. for the animalculae of rain water form an important part of the food of these fish. They need no other sustenance than a very few bread crumbs sprlnkled in their water daily. for oyerfccding win kin thsan vs-v
