THE GRIEF OF ANIMALS.

Mental suffering is not an attribute
'confined alone to the human mind
Out at the Zoo a lioness weeps and
mourns for her lost cub. Her grief
is pitiful to behold No mother ever
suffered more. Her cub came, lived
two days, and died. 1t required
strategy to take it from her. Since
then she has been a subject of the
tenderest consideration, but refuses
to be comforted. Her grief is ex-
pressed in low means. She refuses
food. Nothing that can be done af-
fords any relief.
There are many people who do not
consider the possibility of animals
suffering. They admit that they feel
pain but contend that the suffering
in the animal world Is confined to
the physical, To those who doubt,
one visit to the cage of the lioness
will be convincing. The mother love
is pronounced in all animals, in birds.
and even in reptiles. The most COW
ardly of Gods creatures will fight for
her young 1t may be instinct, but II
seems something more than this. No
suffering COULD be more real than
that expressed by this lioness.
Rachael weeping for her children was
not more afflicted.
1t is remarkable how human it all
is There is mute understanding
that q tragedy has happened There
is taclt recognition that death has
taken her little one from her. To
strangers she looks with inquiring
glances, but she does not expect the
return Of the cub. which comforted
her for so short time 1t is natural
that she should feel its loss so keeniy
Like any other mother, she suffered
to bring it into the world and through
this very suffering her great love was
born. 1t is vindication of the world
worn principle. 1t Is also yindica-
ton of the fact that animals, like
human beings, have affections.

system is therefore a plain, honest
business proposition.

Some strong language was used by
Attorney General Stead in his letter
to the governor concerning the Cairo
mob. which was published in full In
Yesterdays Bulletin. His statement
that member of mob is worse
than the criminal who is lynched, mo
matter what the latter may have
done" is qualified by the words,
Judged by the injury done to the
state" and may be accepted as true
In that sense. In like manner, may
we be permitted to say that, judged
by the injury done to a community,
those men are greater offenders than
any member of mob, who, being
elected and sworn and paid to en-
force the law persistently fail or re-
fuse to do so, and thus invite or even
the people to take the law
into their own hands in order that
criminals may be punished. the law
upheld and life and property may be
safe?

The debates by the pupils Of the
Cairo High School which have been
going on for some time past may not
strike some people seriously, due per
haps more than to any other fact,
that such great questions of national
and international, even worldwide
politics or policies are discussed and
sought to be decided. But this is
not the proper point of view These
debates, while they do not determine
anything, do serve in a most admir-
able and effective manner the pur-
pose that underlies them, viz: TO de-
velop and cultivate taste for solid
reading, deire for research and a
capacity for expression among stu
dents OF the schools; and they are ed
ucational In the highest degree, be-
cause they impress upon the minds Of
the youthful debaters important facts
which the mere reading of books
could not do. The pupils have a rich
source OF information on all subjects
in the Cairo Public Library and have
found the most painstaking aid from
those In charge there.

American embassy any notification of
Roosevelt's final message that the

After being apprised of the con-

that his final message had not been

Water meters are being put in very
generally by citizens who feel that
the rates for service, a. figured up

This Is true especially Of those in

and they find that the meters are
good things, cutting the rates down
considerably below the figures given

nearer, noiselessly, yet quickly, dread

HOW TO CLEAN LACE.
Method Of Restoring Fine Handmade
Fabrics to Original State.

Method Of Restoring Fine Handmade
Fabrics to Original State.
Lace which has become soiled may
be restored to its original state and
rendered equal to new If proper care
and attention are bestowed upon 1t.
Very fine handmade laces should new
err be cleansed by washing in the
ordinary way. II they are only slight
" soied they could be very easily
cleaned by rubbing powdered chalk or
calcined magnesia we'll into them.
This method of cleaning Is credited to
the late Nine. Modjeska. The lace
should be neatly spread out upon a
soft white cloth or fine white paper
and thoroughly covered with the chalk
or magnesia: then this should be GOV.
cred by another cloth or paper of a
similar nature. and the whole should
be laid away for few days under q
heavy weight. At the expiration Of
the allotted time the lace should be
taken from its wrappings and should
receive gentle but thorough shaking
Another method is to take quart
or less of cornmeal. Put 1t into bowl
or pan; then dip and squeeze and
work the cornmeal into the mesh Of
the lace without straining any of the
threads. After this treatment and a
good shaking 1t will look as fresh and
attractive as new.
Very fine lace which has become
quite soiled may be cleaned by wash
ing 1t carefully In benzine. The lace
should be put into a bowl and covered
with the best and purest benzine that
can be procured and be allowed to
soak for short time. occasionally re-
ceiving gentle shaking. but 1t should
never be rubbed with the hands. If
necessary. when the benZine is poured
off it should be replaced by fresh
supply and the lace allowed to soak
again for time. After 1t has become
perfectly clean it should be pinned
while still quite wet OIL flannel COW
cred board to dry. 1t is important
that this should be done with great
care. Plenty of small pins should be
used for the purpose. Each point must
be fastened down securely with due
regard to the pattern of the lace so as
to keep it even and correct
If the lace dries before the task has
been quite completed it should be
moistened again with sponge wrung
out of benzine and then be exposed to
the sun, where the fresh air may play
upon it in order to dispel the disagree
able odor arising from the use of ben
zine.

How to Exercise For Cold Feet.

Ankle exercises will improve the cir

When sitting in a chair stretch the
foot out. extending the toes to the ex-

and down. sideways and around in a
circle. Then stand. supporting your
self by a table or chair, and, with one
foot Slightly raised. make it hang life
less-in other words, devitalize it,.
With a circular movement of the low
er part of the limb swing the foot
around many times. Exercise both
feet in the same way. When you have
stopped the exercise you will feel a
peculiar tingling sensation in the feet.
This is the blood rushing back to them.
Almost at once you will feel COM
Portable sense of warmth that will be
different from any feeling of warmth

And Thew pidn't Exercise.

William NJ. Evarts. who lived until
he was nearly ninety, said he Kept his
health by never taking exercise. Thu
celebrated DR.. William George Mead.
who lived to the surprising age Of AS
years, spent nearly all Of his time In
the open air and played little golf.
DR.. Mead used to drink two or three
quarts Of water every day, and perhaps
there is suggestion in that. Old Du-
bols, who lived in Canada for the bet
ter part of 10 years on the north
shore of Lake Erie; never worked and
never took exercise. He spent seventy
five years Of his life fishing with hook
and line and ate nothing but baked ap-

that long if you do nothing but fish
and eat what old Dubois did. But take
