INTELLIGENCE OF THE FOX.
Apparently Able to Distinguish Be-
tween Real and False DANGERS.

The intelligence of the fox is often
shown by the way he refuses to be
headed when he has made up his
mind as to the safe course to take.
The West Somerset have an excel
lent fixture at Kilve, but il has one
drawback sea is not far of, and
foxes naturally often make for the
cliffs, a secure refuge. n fox can be
easily headed at times, but that Is
nearly always when TO be seen would
betray him to his enemies, the hounds
and give them an advantage; but when
If he makes his point the advantage
Is on his side, then nothing will turn
him.
To return to the West Somerset at
Kilve; they found fox, and the whip
perrin. seeing that the fox meant TO go
to the cliffs If possible. started to head
him off. The ground was open, ana
for half a mile the whipperin and fox
were taking parallel lines, the fox
clearly meaning to slip by and ind a
refuge in the cliffs. The man turned
the fox away at last, but in short
time the hounds lost him, and l be-
lieve he got back after all.
Again the master ranged up some OF
the field to prevent another fox going
back into a certain covert. In vain
whips were ratified against saddle
fans: the fox went right through the
watchers and made his point. 1t is
thing | have often noticed both with
stag or fox. that the quarry seems TO
distinguish between real and false
dangers. rs.-London Globe.

OverWeiqhts.

The excessive mortality OF over
weights has been published by life in
surance stausticians, and the pheno'
menon must be considered in football
discussions. 1t is now proved fact
that the men who are barred from
the game are the ones who live the
longest, and though mere length of life
Is no criterion OF its usefulness, yet it
is a fair assumption that the longest
lived are the most vigorous and, there
fore. the best brain workers.
The colleges are then spending the
most money on the students who will
give the least returns. Every now
and then some ingenious fellow pub

The Rare Gift Of Courtesy.

Courtesy includes not merely social
kindness, graces Of speech, absence OF

MOVING FOR
A STATE ROAD
Both Parties and Auto ASSO-
ClatiOn Now Advocating
Good Highway
CONSTITUTION MAY
PROVE AN OBSTACLE

While the Delaware Automobile AS
sociation has begun an agitation for
an improved highway the entire
length of the State. and while both
political parties have declared for
good roads in their platforms, It is
evident from an experience i'm the
last Legislature that a State High
way cannot be built directly by the
State.
The principal obstacle to the build
ing of a State highway by the State
is the provision of the constitution
that prohibits the State laying out or
building roads. This obstacle was
pointed out In the last Legislature
when a bill for the construction Of
State highway by the State was un-
der consideration, and It resulted
in the bill being withdrawn The
construction of a State road will have
to be undertaken by the counties,
through and from the State for gem
eral road building purposes, it is be-
lieved by persons who have studied
the situation. The section of the con
stituion quoted during the last Leg
islature as prohibiting the State from
constructing a State highway is Sec
| Ntbit Ahf VI AaAAi'AN do AOAluMHs
THE General Assembly shall not
pass any local or special law re-
lating to fences; or the
laying out, opening, alteration, main
tenance or vacation, in whole or in
part, of any road, highway, street,
lane or alley"
It seems TO he the opinion of many
good roads advocates, however. that
the State could provide money for the
! construction of State road in a man
ner that would not conflict with the
constitutional clause. For instance,
IL is contended, the State could ad-
vance money for road building pur-
poses to each county with the stipu-
lation that before any other road or
highway could be improved with the
appropriation the State highway in
that county would have 10 be COM

ATONEMENT
DAY At HAND
YOm Kippur to be UShered in
This Evening With PiCtur-
eSque Rites

The most sacred of the Jewish holy
days, Yom Kippur, or the Day OF
Atonement, will be ushered in at sun
set to-day. Every place of business
will close down before o'clock and
men, women and children will invade
temples and synagogues. The SER
vices will be of a most impressive ma
ture. The reformed Jew will observe
only one day, while his orthodox
brother will indulge in two days
prayer.
This holy day is to atone for the
sins they have committed during the
past year. II is the old Jewish Gus
tom to cast the sins into the water
while muttering prayer. From sun
set on Wednesday until sunset on
Thursday, not a morsel Of food or
liquid must pass the lips of the devOut
Jew. The time of fasting is over
when the head of each household
blows the shofar or ramshorn at the
appearance of the first three stars in
the heaven. Before this is done the
head of each family swings a live
chicken over the head of the indi-
vidual members of his family at the
same time saying a prayer. What
ever sins the members of the family
have committed are invested in the
swinging chicken. After this cere-
mony the family partakes of a special
feast.
