ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE

The case of the German horse Hans,
whose fame was spread to the ends OF
the earth a few years ago. need not be
recalled to the readers memory. Hans
was not an exceptionally we'll trained
trick horse; he was a puzzle, command
ing the attention OF all animal psychol-
ogists. He could not merely count. he
could solve problems in arithmetic; he
could distinguish colors, read German,
printed and written, with the exception
of capital letters, which his owner had
not taught" him; he could spell not
only words and sentences given him, but
also the names Of objects in answer to
such questions as "What has this lady
in her hand?"
He recognized Photographic. C., con-
nected them with their originals-and
had n trained ear for music, including
an infallible feeling for intervals. where
fore he could determine whether two
tones, sounded simultaneously, composed
third and fifth. Still more:
Without difficulty he analyzed compound
clangs into their componentS; he lndi-
Gated their agreeableness or dissgreeable-
ness and could inform us which tones
must be eliminated to MAKE cohsohance ouo ~
of dissonance. C. d and were gwen given
simultaneously and Hans was asked, Does
that sound PLEASANT" lie shook his head
"What tone must be omitted 10 make 1t
pleasant" Hans trod twice-indicatinB
tone d. When the seventh ch9rd G-t,a,c'
was sounded he shook his head disapprov-
ingly He evidently was not agreeaply as
posed toward modern music. so he mol
Gated that the seventh, c, would nave 10
be eliminated.
IN Hans's system both letters and the
notes OF the musical scale were repre-
scented by numbers. He communicated
with humanity by means Of shakes and
mods of the head and by taps OF the
right forefoot, often emphasizing the
final number with a stamp of the left.
All this might have been explained by
the usual methods of signals in use
among animal trainers, but Herr Won
Osten made no perceptible signs Of any
kind. and, stranger still, Hans answered
as readily the questions of strangers
put TO him in the absence Of his master
as those OF that master himself. The
director OF the Circus Busch, one OF the
best known trainers of trick horses
could detect no evidence of the usual
means. however faint Here lay the real
reason Of the interest in Hans that led
to endless writings about him in the
press.
Herr Won Osten had been for many

The Principles
OF Scientific
Management
BY Frederick W. Taylor

This book-this wonderful.
epoch-making book-does ono
apparently impossible thing.
It shows how the worker gets
more money for the same hours
of work, and how, at the same
time, the ozcner gets more
money. too! And the product
costs less!
That is a thing the world has
declared never could be done
and never would.
But-here it is
And the way Of it is all told
right out-for the small CON-
Germ as we'll as for the big es.
tablishment, for skilled and un-
skilled operations.
If we are going to keep up
with the House next door We
have got to do it by Scientific
Management. And if we are
going to pass our competitor
this book has got to be our busi.
ness Creed.
It is a new invention or dis
covery like the typewriter or
telephone-and it has come to
stay. From now on it will al.

ANNUAL ASSESSMENT WORK.

Comes the time when the claim owner hunts around to do his work that results of his hachet and pencil prospecting be secured to him. Companies large and sma we'll individuals af

 Often hear of these people complaining of the uncer tanty of litigation but where such adopted ot cheating the law what they expect but litigation If the who paid the hundred dollars to do the work performs less apparently than that amount nasmuch the party paying makes bona de effort to comply With the law he would appear be far entitled to his er than the who pays $50 and expects that in return he will get the legal amount of work
 The lawyers skilled in dispute have injected inerpre taton into the law that there experienced difficulty showing old work to approximate in value one hundred oars and consequently the large association claim holders do not fear risk the payment of $50 for work that should cost $100.
 Perhaps it may be urged that the claim owner be blamed and to certain extent that is correct many anxious obtain batch of work for less than the value thereof that they willingly take upon themselves to for the work low rate The fact that they do not work anything like the required amount does trouble them They record the legal amount anyway and to it without compunction
