GIRLS AS vETERINARIEs.

They Have Established Free Dfspen-
saries, Where Animals Are Treated.
1t hasn't taken long for the story
of the free dispensary for animals to
get noised abroad. To the headquar.
ters recently opened in this city now
goes daily, according to the Philadel
phia Record, stream of visitors, some
with sick cats and dogs, others with
injured or ailing horses and seeking
professional aid for their family pet
or their four-footed fellow worker. AT
the new dispensary, known as the
Caroline Earl White Free Dispensary
for Animals, all the dumb invalids
are given a welcome and in their turn
ministered to by the veterinary sur
geon who is in attendance.
But the most interesting feature of
this new work is that the services OF
the regular veterinary who is in at
tendance are not essential, for the wo-
men themselves are ready to play
doctor to the sick animals and some
of them are as well qualified to do
so as any diploma veterinary from
the halls of surgical learning. Mrs.
Caroline White, the founder of the dis.
pensary, has made a life study of the
ailments of animals and during her
attendance at the dispensary she is
ready at any time to treat a horse or
dog or cat brought there sick or in
jured.

at the dispensary, ''but l can think
Of few vocations that are more suit

When we women see a horse brought
limping to the dispensary our hearts
go out to the poor thing and we are

er to help the wounded one. What
could be more appealing than the look
in the eyes of a horse or dog or cat
suffering agony and unable to help
itself? If we have any horror of blood
and wounds we soon overcome it when
those appealing eyes are turned upon

CriminoIogist Took No Thought OF
ey-Amusing Adventures.
One side of the late Prof. Lombro
SOS character little known to outsiders
made him adored by his children, es-
pecially his two daughters, who looked
after him as though he were child.
His two greatest domestic character
istics were disregard of appearances
and ent-mindedness, says a London
letter to the New York Sun. When
he was invited out in the evening 1t
was the work of two or three days to
get him keyed up to putting on his
dress Clothes and even then he was
capable Of weakening at the last mo-
ment and going out just as he hap
pened to find himself.
Once when going to Rome he lost
his overcoat, but was not in the least
discouraged, as he entered the first
shop of ready-made clothing and
bought the top-most warm thing which
came to hand without even looking at

to his heels and in which he looked,

His Observation-Disclosures was so great
>Aat when under the care of the home
circle he never attempted to look after
the money and would even leave the
house to go shopping without ever
looking to see If he had his purse with
him. Naturally when he travelled the
consequences for his pocket were dis
astrous He invariably arrived home
without a penny no matter how much
he had taken with him, having either
lost 1t or had 1t stolen.
In Vienna once he lost his purse,
which frightened him so that when he
recovered it he resorted to the eXpe-
dient of dividing his funds into vari-
Gus small sums, which he concealed
about his person in all kinds of un-
likely places, so that at least he would
not lose 1t all at one time. There was
a note in the lining of his hat, another
in his boot, several pinned to his shirt,
and so on, but, notwithstanding this,
he arrived home in his usual penniless
condition.

The Midnight sun.

The midnight sun Is not visible
south of the polar circle. 1t is above
the horizon throughout the twenty
four hours at Bodo from June 3 to
July 7, at Tromso from the 10Th OF
May to the 22d of July and at the
North Cape from the 18th Of May to
the goth of July. There are corre-
spending periods during December,
January and November when the sun
is not seen, but the darkness of the
winter is by no means 80 great as
might be imagined. The whiteness Of
the snow and the glimmer of the
northern lights make a sort Of per.

IF there is one thing 1 hate" said
the determined young business
woman as she sat down to lunch in
a down town restaurant, "it's the
hinter. If someone wants to borrow
an umbrella or some money from you
let her say so right out, not come
shambling into your office, take away
all your valuable time beating around
the bush and dropping fool hints on
the way. l don't take hint. I'm not
dense, but l want to discourage the
habit l think it shows cowardice.
"Take the man who wants to come
to see you. Why can't he say, May
call? No, he hasn't the courage of
his convictions, but he has to hem and
haw, look sheepish and hint for dear
life. / won't have a man like that in
my house. Same thing with girls.
Don't you hate the kind that suggests
to a man that taxi is so comfortable
and she does loathe the street cars, or
the one who asks him If he's seen the
lovely display at certain candy store
or the cute little boxes they send
with Thorley's flowers. 1t would be
safer for her If she kept off the sub
iect, for the chief fun in doing things
lies in planning them, and nothing is
so maddening as to have others make
the suggestions. The hinter only
makes herself unpopular. and the
sooner she knows it the better. Keep
quiet or say right out what you want.

oyster cocktail, because you won't get
one If you do. Sing out like a little

Recently at the Tokyo appeal court,
before Judge Miyamoto, farmer
named Gisei Haseba, 26 years old, con-
victed of numbering his parents-in-law
and severely injuring his wife at Osa-
togori, Saitama prefecture, in 1908, ap-
pealed from the judgment of the
Urawa local court, where he was SEN
fenced to penal servitude for life.
Since April last year, during the
public trial of the accused, he has not
uttered a single word. This attitude
led the Judge and the public prosecu-
tor to conclude that he feigned mad
ness as the last resort, hoping to
get released. He was medically OK
amined by DR.. Kure and DR.. Miyake,
and in this examination DR.. Miyake
adopted a singular method.
There is a belief that the blood of a
venomous snake is soluble with that
of an ordinary man, but not with that
of a madman. The doctor applied this
principle to the examination of the
suspected lunatic, and sure enough
the blood of the venomous snake did
not dissolve in the blood of the ac-
cused. Thus the doctor concluded
that he was really mad.
The other doctor also gave evidence
about the lunacy of the defendant.
The Judge ordered that the trial
should be postponed until the ac-
cused was recovered from his abnor'
NAL condition.-Japan Advertiser.

The Chinamnn's VILLA Puzzle.

A Chinaman, dying, left elevth
sheep and three sons and, making a
will, left one half of his estate to his
eldest boy, one-fourth to the next and
one-sixth to the third son. They wish
ed to divide without killing a sheep,
but could not see how to do it, so they
sent for a wise man. Sending to his
own fold for a sheep, he put it in with
tbe eleven. Now take your half-six,
said he to the eldest, and he did so;
the second, take your fourth-three;
the younger, take your sixth and be-
gone-two, and they all did so, when
the wise man drove his own sheep
home.
Was the division according to the
will?

allowed for every child under 16 from
incomes under $500.
All the demand notes are prepared,
addressed and ready for delivery. The
moment they receive the word GO,
the collectors will issue them The
surveyors will have neither the time
nor the inclination to allow much de-
lay in payment Somerset House may
decide to act instantly on the strength
of the House of Commons resolution or
may wait until the finance bill re-
ceives the royal assent tomorrow
week. The latter course is generally
thought to be the more probable.
This is the time of the year at
which the collectors give the first turn
to the screw in the case OF arrears,
and as there are now some e23, ,500,O00
to collect, instead of about tenth of
that figure, as usual at this period,
the turning of the screw will be en-
phatic. The powers of surveyor are
drastic. If man will not or does not
pay he will receive a curt demand for
the money within five or seven days,
with threat of the usual proceedings
in default. If that proves Intellectual
the brokers may be put in under a
distress warrant, and if there are no
effects which can be seized the de-
faulter will be marched off to prison
at once.
Mr.. Lloyd George estimates that
$3.50 900 has been irretrievably lost by
the delay in the collection of the tax
Many commissioners and surveyors
are convinced that this figure is very
much understated. Some of them esti-
mate the inevitable loss in their own
districts at nearly 10 per cent of the
whole. There have been failures and

payers, and, although the state is pa
tient and persistent in these matters,
it is hopeless (say these experts) to
think that as much of the money will
be recovered as the chancellor seems
to contemplate.
Nobody has yet received a form
which provides for the claiming OF
abatemenls in virtue Of children un-
der 16 years of age. When man en-
titled to such rebates receives his de-
mand note he must either pay in full
and claim the rebate afterward or go
to a vast deal of trouble to get the
rebate allowed before he pays.
Supertax Is to be paid not during
the year in which the income is re-
ceived, but in the year following it,
and persons liable to pay it for The
year ending March 81, 1910, must
make their returns by July 81. So
delicate and important will be the
work of adjusting this new tax that
the officials Of Somerset House charged
with it's management have been in
structed to complete their annual holf
lays before the end of May.
