When the Fairies Are Noisy.

Among the flowers which are said to be very popular with fairies are blue bells. harebells and wood sorrel. All these flowers are used by the fairies to attract the attention of their friends who are at a little distance. If you are ever out in the woods when the bluebeIl or wood sorrel begins to peal in delicate. soft tones you will know that the little flower is being sway ed to and fro by some visiting fairy. The foxglove. known also as the fairy bells. are also said to be used by the fairies for chimes. but when the little people wish 10 sound q real resounding blast that shall awaken from slumber some tiny friend In nearby flower bed or thicket they use not a bell. but a rose leaf rolled up into a very charm ing horn.-Lexington Leader.

WATCHD0GS TRAINED
 TO AID BURGLARS
Special from United Press.

Paris. Dec. s.-The injury today to a Paris postman by a watchdog" who was standing guard at a house while its master robbed the place and the approach of policemen, warned the burglar in time to make good his es- cape and the police are endeavoring to find a new way to fight this method of aiding burglars.
 ''Watchdogs" were introduced Into Paris six months ago. The only d.f- ference between them and Paris fa- nous police dogs" fs that they serve the law-breakfng element instead of the police. The "watchdogs'' are trained to fight the police dogs" and to give the alarm to their masters when the police approach a place where a job is under way. In many cases they have attacked the police with great ferocity.
 These dogs have proved of such aid to the criminal class that in six months time hundreds of them have been either imported or trained from the canine rank and file.
