HER LOVE OF THE BEAUTIFUL
for Muff, and Man Fled to
Save His Soul.

A man and q woman once went
into room where a handsome black
cat lay sleeping before the fire.
The woman was fair of face and
richly dressed, and her large hat,
which was in the height Of the fash
ion, was covered with the distorted
bodies and tail feathers of birds
which had once been beautiful.
The man admired the woman and
thought she was the gentlest and
fairest thing he had ever met.
As soon as the woman saw the
handsome cat she went up to it, call
ing it "Poor pussyp' and fondled it.
Glow kind she is to everything, "
the man thought, "and how fond Of
animals
Dear pussy" said the woman,
stroking the cat not overgently, 81
would like your skin for a muff."
The cat swore at her after its kind,
for she had rubbed it up the wrong
way and disturbed its sleep. And
after struggle it ran away.
"What more does she want ?" the
man said to himself. "She has her
hat full of birds, and the skins of
beasts round her shoulders, now she
wants the cats skin to cover her
hands; next she will want my soul"
And he, too, fled before it was too
late.--F. G. Brunton, in the World.

ALL LIFE BUT ONE CREATURE
Component Parts Are Merely lndlVld'
usI Cells, According TO Argument
Of Samuel Butler.

Samuel Butler argues that, as au-
tomato expertness in piano playing
proves previous practice, so also does
the immediate expertness in pecking

question Of personal identity; and
again. This brings up the whole
m them), and can therefore do it
question: How can a newly Matched
chick have had any practice in peck
ingY Butler replies that the essen
tials of The chick once lived in its
parents bodies, and that it remem-
bers what they did Cor what it did
in them, and can therefore do it
again. This brings up the whole
question Of personal identity; and
Butler deals with it. We say that
an octogenarian is the same "per-
son" as he was when an infant; yet
there is no identity of matter. Nor
does personality depend upon any
consciousness or sense of such per-
sonality; it is not likely that the
moth remembers having been a
caterpillar, any more than we re-
member having been children of a
day old. And if the octogenarian
is the infant of eighty years ago he
is also the foetus Of a few months
before, and-chasing him still fur
Their back-he is identical with his
parents. This "involves the prob
able unity of all animal and vege-
table life, as being, in reality, moth
ing but one single creature, of which
the component members are but, a:
it were, blood corpuscles or individ'
ual cells" which would fit in rather
well with the similar augmentation
Of Fechner.

SNAKES FOR THE HOUSEHOLD
Giboias Are Welcomed by Brazilian
Families, for They Are
Rat Cstchers.

In certain parts of Brazil, where
the climate is intensely hot, and
where rats are a great nuisance, the
common cat does not thrive, but liz
replaced by a domestic rat catcher
whose presence causes a decidedly
unpleasant sensation to visitors from
the north, when first they come in
contact with this creature.
Giboias are a species of small boa
constructor employed very generally
in Brazil for the purpose above men,
toned. They are not at all VEN
omous.
They sleep in the house, generally
taking up their position at the foot
of the stairs. When nightfall APP
proaches they begin 70 wake up, and
during the night they glide swiftly
about the premises, looking for rats.
Giboias are offered for sale in the
markets of Bahia and Pernambuco
for prices ranging from 81 to SIS, ac-
cording to the size of the creature.
1t is said that they are so easily do
mesticated that, if removed from one
house to another they invariably re-
turn TO the house whence they have
been taken. Often when one is bar
gaining with a broker for the sale
or lease of a residence in certain
parts of Brazil the broker will eX-
patiate with great eloquence upon
the virtues and skill of the giboia
that goes with it.

DIDN'T WANT GREEN HORSES
rIck's Day Parade, Wanted
Them All Gray.
Of Fechnel

A florid-looking Irishman drifted
into the Office of big firm of horse
dealers. He came from a benevolent
association that is famous as one Of
the biggest aggregations of Irish
men outside of the Emerald Isle. He
asked for Mr.. Kearney, of the firm.
"Oi want twinty gray horses for
the parade st. Patrick's day." he an
nounced after exhibiting his creden-
tials.
Twenty gray horsesl" exclaimed
Mr.. Kearny, that's quite en- order.
l don't believe we have twenty gray
horses in the stables. We could Civ
you about dozen grays."
The Irishman shook his head ;
there were twenty officials Of the or
der that had to be mounted. Then
suddenly it occurred to Mr.. Kearny
that a carload Of horses was on its
way from the west; even then the
bill of lading was on his desk, and
the consignment could not be far
from Jersey City.
Hold on" said he, 81 guess 1
can fix you up. Pm expecting car
load of green horses, and"
"Greenp gasped the Irishman, as
he jumped to his feet; "green
horses Tn divil roast EN- !" But
he laughed just as heartily as did
Mr.. Kearny when it was explained
to him that green was not actually
the color of the horses.
