10 be modern development of slang.
However. lobster was favorite term
Of abuse among Englishmen Of Queen
Elizabeth's day, and Shakespeare may
have denounced his callboy as a

tend to his duties. Some students of
the word think 1t probably was applied
first to men with red faces. AS signi-

the Roundhead cuirassiers because of
the bright iron shells with which they
were covered Afterward British SOL

Her Baby.

A rnusk-ox calf at the "Zoo" in New
York appeals by its helplessness IN
strange country. 1t may be homeslck IN
its new environment, so many miles from
IFS snowy home. That the infant musk
OK in its native wilds is we'll looked after
by IFS mother is shown in Otto Sverdrup's
"New Land" The explorer was out Tor
a walk one day when he came on herd
of musk-oxenlying down. They seemed
quite careless Of his presence. he says,
until he was within two hundred PAGES.
Then they rose totheir feet. There were
twelve of them. They looked at him
for a while, then hurried up the hillside,
on the top of which they formed square.
They were all cows.
When they started to run, noticed one
had baby calf. The herd went up
steep snow drift eight or ten feet high.
The calf made brave attempts to follow,
and almost reached the top, but lost its
footing and rolled down.
II fell so helplessly that thought 1t
was killed, but to my surprise it roSe'
and began to scramble up once more
The second attempt was no more sue
cessful than the first, and down it came
rolling again. 1t cried piteously, just as
a baby cries when ii is very unhappy.
| felt so sorry for it that was just
goingto help it up the drift when it occurred
to me that the old cow might msinter-
pret my motives, and what then? might
have to risk battle with her, and it would
be pity to have to shoot her in selt-de-
Tense. decided to remain where was
and see what happened.
AT last the mother heard the cries OF
distress, and came tearing down the
hillside, the snow flying behind her.
Heaven help the person who meddled
with her calf them She would have made
il hot for him.
1t was both amusing and touching to
see the two together. The mother Ca
ressed the calf as if to comfort it, smiled
il all over to see if il were still whole,
gave push now and then, and started it
gently up the drift, not the way the herd
had gone, but by an easier and less steep
way.
When both were across the drift, the
mother ran few steps, not quickly, but
too fast tor the calf to follow. She turned
back and pushed the baby gently with
her nozzle. Then again she ran forward
but the poor little thing could not keep
up, so the mother returned to the old
pushing methods.
This went on until the square was
reached. The mother took her place in
it, and the calf crept under her, and was
hidden entirely from sight by the long
hair.

A Cheese IFS Years Old.

In the cantonS OF Vaud and ValaiS,
Switzerland, cheese-makerS often pre-
serve their product for years before eating
it. They say that it grows better with
age. In some places it is the custom to
make special cheeses for family celebra-
tions, keeping them in reserve, properly
dated, for years. Sometimes such chees-
es are made and kept to be used at the
funerals of member OF the family, and Of
ten certain chosen cheeses are handed
down from generation to generation as
family heirlooms. Recently, at Ormonts,
in an abandoned house, cheese was
found bearing the date 1885. 1t had be-
come so hard that it was necessary to cut
it with asaw, but those who partook OF
if declared that il was still an excellent
cheese.
