TRAINING YOUNG CAMELS

Some young camels had been brought
into the market for sale, and it was
very amusing to watch their pur-
chasers breaking them in. The first
thing which an Arab does when train
ing a camel is to teach him to kneel
down at the word of command. He
seizes him by the throat with his left
hand, places his right hand behind the
bend of his neck, kicking him all the
time on the shins and crying 'Kh-h,
kh-h," which it is impossible to write,
and utterly impossible for any one but
an Arab to pronounce. The result is
a sort of wrestling match beteWen man
and beast, which, unless the camel is
very, very young, will frequently last
for several minutes. The crowd sitting
round applauds one side or the other,
while the camel gurgles and snarls and
the Arab tugs, curses "IAn-h's" and
kicks. The man sooner or later always
gets the best of the match, for by his
hold upon the camels throat he is
able to compress the Windpipe, and
eventually the camel is obliged to sue
cumb. When once a troublesome GUS
toner has been got down, one of his
forelegs is knee-haltered, and then,
when he rises again to his feet on
three legs he is entirely in the power
of his trainer.-From "a Search for the
Masked Tamereks."

as large rivers or high mountain
ranges, which would block the way of

Years war Germany served as the
great battle-ground for Spanish, SWed-

reduced the population from 100000
to 100000 and made the country an
almost uninhabitable desert. In Sax

$4,000 persons were killed or swept
away by sickness. In Wurtemberg
over 100000 lost their lives and eight
cities, forty-five towns, siXty-five
churches and $4,000 houses were burned.
The Palatinate, having at that time
a population of 100000, suffered a loss
of $4,000, and in some parts of Thur

THE PoLIcEMAN's FRIGHT

Yes, sir" said the big policeman,
Il dan say I've been in what you
might call some pretty tight places.
Every policeman is, sooner or later.
But the worst scare l ever got had
the least danger in it," The police
man was on duty, but duty at the
moment was not very pressing. A
procession was coming, sooner or later
that morning, along the thoroughfare,
but it was not yet in sight, and the
policeman had fallen into conversa-
ton with a citizen who was waiting
to see it.
"How did it happen?" asked the
citizen.
'"Twas this way" said the police
man. Il was young lad at the time,
new to the force, and swelled up with
my own Importance as a husky boy
who had just done himself credit in
the physical examination. Nothing
had any terrors in it for me, and l was
Just looking for adventure for the
mere love of it. Mebbe you've had
the feeling, sir?
Il was on night duty" continued the
officer, walking a beat in the busi
ness part of the city. and trying the
doors as l came to 'em, to make sure
everything was fastened. Presently L
came to a door down a side alley, and
when l tried it, it opened under my
hand and l stepped inside in the dark"
"Unlocked? ?" said the citizen.
Sure. Said 1 to myself, Here's
something for you to look into, and
mebbe an arrest of burglars at their
work, and a picture of the brave Of
ficer in the morning papers,
so l crept along in the dark, feeling
of the wall, and finally the wall end
ed, and l was out in a large room,
with no wall to feel of. 1t was so still
| could hear myself breathing. So L
went down in my pocket for my match
box and struck light.
'"Twas midnight, for l could hear
the clocks booming outside; and when
that match was well lighted l got the
worst scare I'll get this side of judg-
ment day. All around me were men
and women, standing quiet and staring
at me.
'"Twas the quietness of 'em and the
horrid, fixed way they looked that got
on my nerves, and when the match
went out l gave one yell and made for
the entry, feeling as if every one of
them was after me-"
But who were they" asked the in
terested citizen.
WAX figures" said the policeman,
tersely. The little door that l found
open was the back entrance to one of
those WaXwOrk museums, and the jan
itor had forgot to lock it after him.

ST. ANTHONY AT WORK

erary club of St. Anthony made its
way rather mysteriously to Sagehurst
a few days ago. 1t was handed in
at the door by an attractive little Miss
who was not known to the recipient,
later the messenger was identified as
Winifred Biethan, daughter of our
district president. There are man
well known club women in the cast
of characters, with music furnished
by the Industrial school orchestra,
which, by the way, is gaining quite a
reputation in southeastern Idaho. We
do not know what the proceeds are
for. but feel assured it is for some
good philanthropic purpose.

A NOVEL VALENTINE

The Courant is in receipt of an
unique valentine sent out by the
Woman's club of Cincinnati, Ohio. It
is leaflet of four pages; the outside
bears the heart message:
E"Just line to girls and boys
Will not make it long;
We offer without much noise
This rhyming little song.
Woman's Club ......... "Civics"
Send this Valentine
And ask all little workers,
Will you be mine?"
Inside is pretty story of what
little "Civic Johnnie accomplished
by cleaning up one back yard. The
back cover carries a warning in
rhyme of what a careless little girl
did by dropping an orange peel in the
street.
All such efforts add to the general
movement for the betterment of daily
life and make festal days educative
in measure.
