Coming across the Revere Beach fer

younger would step around to the
right side of his companion, and with

corresponding shift. At last the elder
became irritated.
"Say. what are you trying to do,
shifting around like this?" he demand

"1'm deaf in my left ear and was
trying to get where Id hear WE'LL" the
younger replied. "
"And I'm blind in my left eye and
wanted to see what was doing" said
the other.-Boston Journal.

LIFE BANISHMENT FROM PERAK
One Hundred and Seventeen Persons
Forced to Leave Country.

One Hundred and seventeen per-
sons, chiefly habitual criminals,
We're banished for life from Perak
last year. OF these ninety-nine were
Chinese, twelve of whom had been
convicted of participating in unlaw-
full societies. It was discovered that
the number of prison offenses varied
in indirect ratio with the price of
tin. When tin was high and the in
dusJry accordingly prosperous, in
mates of jails were few, and visa
versa.

Loss Of Cows Milk.

A cow that loses her milk between
milkings is hard to cure. Some
times it can be checked or stopped
by using one or more rubber bands
around the teats. Milking a COW
three times a day will avoid some of
the loss. Some COWS seem incurable,
and about all that can be done with
them it to keep them to feed calves
with. The frequent removal of the
milk by the calves will prevent
enough milk accumulating to leak
out.

lily In Scotland.

Seattle, Wash.-one Of the most re-
markable cases of forgotten Identity
was disclosed In Pierce county when
Jane Patterson Scott began divorce
proceedings against George Scott. The
young woman. whose home was in Al.
legheny, Pa, came west a gear ago.
She met Scott, a wealthy lumber man.
ufacturer, in Vancouver, b. c., and
married him. Later he became I'll.
She nursed him back to health only to
have him remember suddenly that he
was married IS years ago in Scotland
and that he had a wife and children
there.
He declares his name is Scott, the
complaint says, but cannot explain
how he came to forget his first wife
SO long a period. He does not recall
any fall or illness that would have
tended to impair his memory. His sec.
ond wife was obdurate that there was
nothing for them to do but to separate
and she would secure a divorce.
Meantime Mr.. Scott will return to
Scotland and institute search for his
wife and children. The agreement
with the second wife is that II he finds
them he will atone for his long alb.
sence by settling in his native land;
II he Is unsuccessful in his search he
will return and will again marry his
second wife.

Americas Great Redwoods
In Age and size.

Bsbon-when Madeira island 10
mentioned, people usually associate
with It the name OF the wine which
was made from It's luscious grapes, be-
fore the blight practically destroyed
the vines. They have given little. II
any. thought to the real meaning or
derivation OF the word Madeira.
The Portuguese were the first OF the
white race to c%olonize the picturesque
island northwest OF Africa, and the pi.
oneers found the mountains and val.
leys covered with forests OF giant
trees. So pronounced was this fea.
ture that they gave the island the
name Of Madeira. which means timber
In their language. Some Imposing
remnants of the great forests still re-
