TOY BILLY GOAT BUTTS HARD
Novel Device, Invented by Georgia
Man, Intended to Cause Much
Amusement for Children.

An amusing toy for children has

The toy comprises a base with a fig
ure elastically mounted at one end.
The figure normally stands erect, but

when the pressure is released. Facing
this figure a goat is mounted on a
platform, through which the animals
forefeet pass to a slide, which is also
elastically operated. BY means of q
projecting button the slide is drawn
out. When 1t is released the elastic
makes It fly back and the goat pitches
forward, raising his hind legs in the
air and butting the mannikin full in
the chest or face. The mannikin there

ANIMALS WEEP FROM GRIEF
Horses Cry From Thirst, Mule From
Injured Foot and Other Beasts
From Pain or Annoyance.

Travellers through the Syrian desert
have seen horses weep from thirst. A
mule has been seen to cry from the
pain of an injured foot. and camels.
II is said, shed tears In streams. A
COW sold by its mistress. who had
tended It from calfhood, wept pitiful'
ly, says Harper's Weekly. A young
soko ape used to cry with vexation II
Livingstone didn't nurse It in his arms
when It asked him to. Wounded apes
have died crying, and apes have wept
over the young ones slain by hunters.
A chimpanzee. trined to carry water
Jugs broke one and cried, which
proved sorrow, though It wouldn't
mend the jug. Rats, discovering their
young drowned, have been moved to
tears Of grief. A giraffe which a
huntsman's rifle had injured, began
to cry when approached. Sea lions
often wep over the loss Of their young.
Gordon Cumming observed tears trick
ling down the face Of dying ele-
plant. And even an Orangoutang
when deprived Of its mnngo was so
vexed that it took to weeping. There
is little doubt, therefore, that animals
do cry from grief or weep from pain
or annoyance.

TWO AMUSING PARLoR GAMES
Pastlmes Which Have Been Carried
Out With Success and Are Some
times uprOarIOusIy Funny.

Two parlor amusements which have
been carried out with great success
are as follows: Send q person out OF
the room, decide upon an object or
some simple performance, recall the
person and have q member Of the par
ty place his fingers lightly upon a per
sons shoulder while he and all the 9TH
ers think intently Of the object or act
decided upon, says Home Herald. The
results sometimes are almost uncan-
ny. A lady went straight and drew q
scarfpin from q mans necktie, just as
he wiIled, found q key hidden in q
lady's slipper, and 30 on.
The other trick" is to draw upon .
sheet Of paper q square, with dag
onal lines between the corners, the
only opportunity Of the artist to watch
his own progress being a mirror held
I'D before his hands by a second per-
son. A newspaper Is made to screen
the sheet and the hand which Is doing
the drawing. The results are some
tines uproariously funny.

A aNrnharrft Trick.

Mime. Sarah Bernhard who is sup
posed to be something Of an artist as
well as an actress, was recently called
upon In one of her marvellous crea-
lions to enact the role Of a sculptor,
and to model q certain bust In view Of
the audience. This fairly electrified
the critics, but when going into rhap-
sOdies over the technical skill In ham
ding the clay which Nine. BerAhardt
exhibited they showed that they knew
little Of the artistic tricks Of actors
and actresses; as q matter Of fact, she
does nothing Of the kind. The bust
is modelled and baked. and over 1t Is
placed damp clay Of the same color.
This the talented actress merely pulls
on, exposing the beautifully modelled
head underneath.
