MUsIC-LOVING COWS.

Music pleases man and beast. The author of the book of Job records the effects of the trumpet on the horse, and a writer in the American Nat uralist tells of a herd of cows that was greatly moved by the music of band. Twelve or thirteen cows in herd were grazing in large field op- posite a dwelling house. One day German band began playing on the road dividing the house from the field. No sooner did the COWS hear the music than they came from the farther end of the field, and standing with their heads over the dividing stone fence quietly listened to the music. On the departure of the mu- sicians, the COWS followed them as far as they could on the other side of the wall. When they could go no farther, they stood lowing piteously. Some of them became so excited that they ran round and round the field, seeking to get out. Finding no out let, they returned to the corner where they had lost sight of the band, and remained there for long time.

PAINTERS LUCKY ESCAPE

With grappling hook fortunately caught in the seat of his trousers, James Donahue, painter of Brook lyn, dangled from the Williamsburg bridge over Delaney street, his body swinging to and fro 150 feet above the surface of the water near the big pier of the span. Hundreds of persons watched him horror-stricken, but un- able to help. The man was left in that position when a scaffold on which he had been working gave way and Owen Finnegan, another painter, was dashed to death against a stone abut- ment for below the bridge.
 The painters were adjusting the scaffold against the pier when Finne- gan accidentally let rope slip from his grasp. One end of the soaffold plunged downward and Finnegan fell to death. Donahue had no warning, and he, too. was falling, when the graphing hook, dangling from another rope attached to the bridge overhead, caught in his trousers. The man was falling with such momentum that as the hood caught he almost was jerked cut of his clothing. He swung against

Why all this fuss and controversy as to whether it was Cook or Peary or either of them, or both, that dis covered the north pole? Surely the center of the earth is as important as either extremity; and the Zuni Indi ans have the center safely corralled and appropriately upon their reserva- tion.
 In the Zuni cosmogony, the earth is conceived of as flat and shaped like a pancake. Being a chosen people of the gods, they were commanded early in their tribal career to go to the ex- act center of the world, and there build their homes; and one of the most interesting legends of the people relates the story of their wandering in search of the Middle Place." and tells how they knew it when they reached it. It is about 200 yards south of their village, in western New Mexi- co, 8 miles south of Gallup, on the Santa Fe route. It is marked by a crude shrine, built like a bake oven. out of fiat stones. Two large remov- able flagstones close the entrance. which faces the rising sun. On the top are number of concretionary for nations, known to the Indians as thunder stones" In the interior are large numbers of feather-t -tufted prayer sticks, and several earthenware yes. sels filled with sacred meal.

SKEPTlC SON LOST FORTUNE

Because his son Joshua could never be induced to believe in the Bible as Divinely inspired writing, but looked upon it simply as the work of a good ancient novelist, the father, David Ba- ker of Collins, Miss, cut him off in his will with five dollars, while to each of his other children he left fortune.
 David Bakers last will and testa- ment adds the final chapter to the his tory of unique character. Two years ago he began making cement blocks. and as each one dried he laid it with elaborate ceremony on the walls of a house. A few weeks ago the last one was put in place and roof added, and siX-room bungalow was ready tos himself and wife. Then in a few days his wife died, and Baker heartbroken over her death and the uselessness of two years spent in building home, followed her to the grave.

HAPPINESS IN ONES WORK
Only in Proper Employment Can There Be Found the Real
 Joy of Life.

The joy of life is the joy of work well done. Husbands love their wiyes,. but, oh, their work! Wives, notable, for housekeeping, for wise mother hood, or the particular kind of social helpfulness in which women so shine, burn incense of affection to their lords, yet have constant delight in their duties.
 Many fortunate men fall into work from the start which gets the warmth of their heart as much as their strength and muscle and activity of brain. But there are far too many who snatch at any employment and find themselves condemned to it.. They sweat and groan and so add tc their unhappiness. They butt their, heads against stone walls and then wonder at the bruises.
 Let's preach a bit. If the work is, not to ones first liking try to make it so Complaining will do no good; sulking embitters. Put the best that's in you in the job, and it's dollars to. doughnuts that the job will pay you back. It will grow easier and more agreeable. In time genuine liking for it may be developed. And then will come the best of happiness.

What Shoes They Wear.

It is easy to tell visitors to the city who visit the theaters by their shoes, particularly the shoes of women, says the New York Press. They come in taxis, these visitors, all of them, and spare no expense, but the women in- varitbly wear, thick, heavy shoes if the night happens to be rainy, and ov- ershoes, while the New York women, stepping out of their carriages and taxis in the daintiest O. high-heeled slippers, come from warm, steam-heat- ed apartments in warm carriage to a warm theater, never once thinking of preparing for rain or cold by heavy shoes even, to say nothing of over shoes.

QUEENS USE TYPEWRITERs

It is related that in passing through her husbands library, the attention of the empress of Japan was attracted by peculiar looking machine. On learning that it was a typewriter and having it explained to her she became interested and began to hit the keys. Now, it is said, she does good deal of correspondence for the emperor. It is further reported that Queen Alex andra of England, Queen Maud of Norway, the czarina and the queen of Portugal are all fond of using the typewriter in correspondence with their intimates. It is probable that all of them put together do not use the machine as much as Carmen Sylva, the queen of Roumania, who rattles off her poems and stories on 8 typewriter.

Court House at Reno.

corroboration of the plaintiff and pro- cedure under court rules are so exact ing and irksome that the desired re- cred impossible of attainment, and the client, when consulting local counsel, is almost invariably advised that he has no remedy. In Nevada the appli cant without deception or fraud, upon almost any charge from which lack of harmonious relations may be req sonably inferred, may apply to our courts and secure prompt results by decree of absolute divorce, valid and binding in law"
 Upon the passage of the new law Nevada promptly succeeded to the easy divorce crown that formerly char acterized South Dakota, the people of which state one year ago made its requirements harder and the time of required residence one year. It need ed only the filing of suits there by such well-known persons as Nat Good win, Margaret Ellington (Mrs. Daniel Frohman) and others of stage circles, with the consequent wide advertising to cause a stampede in that direction of hundreds, many of whom married at leisure and repented in haste.
 Reno is city of 1S,000 population, acting as supply center to the vast mining areas of Nevada, and being the site of the State University, the Mac kay School of Mines, big Carnegie library and other institutions. It is known as the city of the finest churches and homes in the state. It has every modern equipment in the way of paved streets, traction service. waterworks, lighting, etc. Not only is it a center of intellectual attain ment and wealth, but it is railroad center and of climatic and scenic note Intersecting it is Nevada's most beau tifrn mountain stream, the Truckee river, on which the government is spending millions, and surrounding 1t is the richest agricultural land of that region.
 With all these and other advan- tages Reno immediately grabbed the larger part of the divorce industry.

SNAKES IN RAILWAY CARS

The railway station of Bragulia fServia) is so infested with snakes that special precautions are taken when trains stop there to prevent the reptiles from entering the compart- ments. An Englishwoman coming from Constantinople was appalled, to find a small snake coiled round the handle of her travelling bag The con. sequent search resulted in the discov. cry of several other snakes among the passengers rugs.

 As he hung helpless, a great crowd collected in the street below. Patrol man Bender of the bridge squad hur- ried to the place from which Donahue was dangling. The policeman swung another rope toward the painter and the man had strength enough to pull himself upright. He was hauled to the bridge as the crowd below cheered and the river craft wildly footed their whistles.

Noted Old Tavern Still standina.

The old Whitney tavern in Shelby vile, Tenn, erected in 1910, is still in a good state of preservation. It is built of cedar logs, which are chinked and pointed between, and with the exception of the renewing of the weather boarding and shingles it has undergone no change. The large stone chimneys. with their broad fireplaces, are still in as perfect condition as when Gen. Jackson and other noted personages were entertained there Later it was occupied as Q residence by Thomas Holland.
 In the days of overland travel com modious stables were kept in connec- tion for the purpose of taking care of the horses and vehicles of the guests, also the stage coaches which ran be- tween Nashville and southern points in Alabama and Mississippi.-Chris- tian Science Monitor

 My wife has gone to Reno
 Hooray; hooray!
 It is stated officially that upward of six hundred persons have establish ed residence in this city and have either filed divorce proceedings or will do so as soon as they have been here six months. Every train brings new applicants, and every part of the Unit ed States is already represented by those who have found marriage q failure.
 The new Nevada divorce law is, perhaps, the most elastic ever entered on the statutes of any state. It was enacted by the legislature to attract immigration and money to the state in the popular belief that every new arrival would make more or less of an investment in the vast mining and other industries of Nevada. The plain tiff must reside in the state for at least six months. He or she need not live there continuously, but may leave the state, at any time, returning and fil- ing suit when six months have passed after legally establishing a domicile.
 Here is what Reno divorce special ist says in a treatise on the procedure required While the laws in other states generally contain some provi- sion for the dissolution of the mar riage tie, it is obvious that in cases where extreme cruelty, desertion and failure to provide form the basis of the grievance, the laws in such states offer no substantial relief to the az grieved party because the require nents of proof, duration of offense,

 II CT, Albert, proposed a re- treat up the trail of five miles to high sugar-loaf mountain on the Tuya mountains, l consented. l meant to take some chances in second at tempt to get the big caribou. Soon we reached a point opposite the noun tain, and then the hard work began. I drove the horses and the Indians went in front cutting down trees, for we had to force our own trail.
 September 20 is one of the red-let- ter days of my life, so I must give it in full. At dawn we moved our outfit about four miles to the highest clump of wood. The walking for once was easy and firm, and as we forced our way through the last of the willow scrub, one of the finest landscapes in the world was spread before our won dering eyes Four thousand feet be- low was the Tanzilla, lost in great golden splashes of cottonwood, birch and poplar Successions of deep green fir woods rolled away to the west as far as the grand canyon of the Stikine, and looking beyond were huge mountains between that river and the Iskoot now covered with deep and permanent snow It was a glorious day for spying, and on every point of Ii,oo 0noinnnno Wn ct md worked the glass industriously. There were hundreds of likely spots for the great caribou, but not one could we find.
 "I guess wolves scare him right out of the country said Albert, as he closed the glass with an irritable snap.
 We had now walked about 12 miles, and I was feeling very tired and had great difficulty in breathing in the rarefied atmosphere.
 We will just look this last valley" said Albert. moving to the left I searched with the glass and then gave 1t to Albert, who had hardly placed it to his eye when he dropped it, excitedly exclaiming:
 "Caribou! plenty big bulls!"
 I tore the telescope from his hand and looking in the direction he pointed, saw herd of over 50 cari- bou. including at least 12 bulls. Our first move was to descend into the valley and hide the horse.
 The wind was blowing directly in our faces, so that all went well until we reached the last stick of cover From this point we had fine view of the caribou, many of which had by this time risen to their feet and were descending the hill. They stopped frequently to feed. and it was fully half an hour before the first stag, ac- companied by two or three minds, stood opposite our hiding place. What an immense beast he looked, and how keen l should have been to kill him had not seen something better.
 Presently another grand stag came by, but l resisted the temptation to shoot and kept my eyes glued on the big fellow who was still lying down. Finally, he arose. surrounded by five large females. l never supposed for an instant but that he would do aught but follow the others, but to my great disgust he turned and walked the other way My heart sank to the depths of despair.
