sleepy Grass Of New Mexico.

While making a trip through the
southwestern part OF New Mexico
Herbert W. Wolcott Of Alamogordo,
\. NJ. found a grass from which he
believes a narcotic may be extracted
which will take the place OF those
now known 10 medicine.
The grass is known as sleepy
grass 70 the natives of New Mexico
near the Apache reservation" said
Mr.. Wolcott. Cattle and horses will
eat il the first time they see it. 1t
makes them fall 10 the ground in
their tracks and lie in state OF coma
for two days. When they wake up
they nave no i'll elects from the OPT
ate. But they will never eat it again;
in fact they will run away if it is Of
fered TO them.
This sleepy grass is not to be
confused with the loco weed. The
grass is a real grass, not unlike the
Kentucky blue grass in appearance
The loco weed is a plant and bears a
flower. Horses ana cattle become loco
fends and are worthless after tasting
the deadly stuff

New Anesthetlc Discovered.

A new anesthetic. which it is said,
will prove a great boon to the med
ical profession, is reported by the
American consul at Bucharest, ROu-
mania, to have been discovered there
by an eminent physician.
II is composed of strychnine and
storeine and is said to have prac-
tically the same effect as cocaine. eX-
cept that it can be used in major op-
erations and not applied locally.
The drug is infused into the system
by injection and causes the patient
to lose all sensation, but does not rob
him of consciousness. For operations
below the waist the anesthetic is in
iected at the base of the spine and
for operations above the waist it is
infused into the backbone between
the shoulders.

him and he went down stairs picked
up the lawn mower and the pruning

He did that while he was asleep?"
Indeed he did. and when I wax.

EnaIish Racing Story.

To an owner of racehorses there
are few more expensive luXuries than
an unsound animal, and therefore the
recent disappointment of a certain
Youthful noble lord who manfully gave
1900 guineas for bargain which
turned out 10 be wofully detected in
mis- understandings can readily be
understood.
Let me see; you are the rascal
who sold me a horse with only three
legs and a swinger,' he said one day.

horses late owner in the paddock at
Kempton. certainly" replied the late
owner gleefully; that is to say if you
are really the idiot | sold him to-

the prize of the victory of the Prince
of Peace
