Three-Story Jump Easy for Cat.

A pan OF grease that boiled over
caused a fire, panic among many
tenants, and record-breaking jump
OF black cat that was scalded by
The hot grease in 9 James street,
Members Of the eight families in the
house crowded out on the fire es-
capes and several women would have
jumped for safety had they not been
restrained.
When the firemen were taking the
tenants out Of the house over the roof
OF James street, Mrs. Carbo's black
cat ieaped from the window of the
third floor, landed properly on its
rect in The court and dashed off
through an alley as if jump of three
stories was an everyday occurrence
in It's pine lives. After licking the
hot grease from its paws the cat came
BACK in tho evening and joined the
Carlo family.-New York Press.

ouELs AMONG suDAnEsE ARABS.
Where Pastoral Life Doesn't Always
Lead to Peace and Quiet.

The country to the southeast OF
Tekar. in Africa, is the home of the
Hasas; the Hadendoas occupy the
khors to the south and the plateau to
the southwest. Both of these are
black Arabs. speaking different Ian
guages. ...
The Hasas live almost entirely on
sour milk. while the Hadendoas are
agricultural as we'll as pastoral. Their
dokhn and durra. milletlike grains,
were ripening in February and being
protected from countless swarms Of
small birds by men who stood on ele-
waited platforms, from which they
cracked loudly large whips with palm
leaf lashes 20 feet long.
The dress Of these Arabs is cotton
sheet held In by belt in which they
carry crooked knives. For other weap.
ons they use sticks, spears and
swords. Firearms are prohibited.
Judging by. the many scars borne by
the men the pastoral life is by no
means 80 peaceful as the poets would
lead us to think. Many of the scars
come from duels, in which the men
cut each other alternately in the back
till one cries Enough"

The Care Of the Eyes.

When one is using the eyes for
close work 1t Is wise to change the
focus at intervals and gaze off at a
distance; If the distant view is of
green mountains and fields it will be
most restful. If the air in the room
can be frequently changed that will
rest the eyes also. One should never
use the eyes for study or work before
breakfast or after the strength has
been reduced by disease or a nervous
strain. book should be held about
Ii inches from the eyes. The light
for work should be steady and for an
entire room diffused rather than
spotty.-Harper's Bazaar.

Women's Clubs in United States

Nobody knows how many women's
clubs there are in the United States.
The General Federation Of Women's
clubs was registered in the almanacs
of 1908 as having over 5000 clubs in
its membership, with 100000 women
on their rolls. But that was in Janu-
AIRY, 1908, and the federation grows
every year amazingly. 1t contains, too,
only few out of the numberless wom-
ems clubs in the land, since there are
small clubs, societies and circles every
where which do not affiliate themselves
with any state or national organization.
but exist simply for the pleasure and
profit Of their own membership.-tIar.
