BIRDS FIGHT THEIR IMAGES.
But So Do Fish, for That Matter, According to
Darwin.

A correspondent for the Scotsman recently re-
ported what he described the curious freak" Of
a blackbird flying against parlor window many
times at the same spot continuously Such an In
cident is not uncommon. Birds have been known
to fight for hours at time day after day. with
their own image reflected in pane of glass, peck
ing and futtering against the pane and quite ex-
haustfng themselves in their fury to demolish the
supposed rival. 1t is another instance OF how the
arts of our civilization corrupt and confuse the
BIRDS
It is the same with fishes Darwin tells q
story of pike in aquarium separated by plate
glass from fish which were Its proper food. In
trying to get at the fish the pike would often dash
with such violence against the glass to be COM
pleteiy stunned. 1t did this for more than three
months before it learned caution Then when
the glass was removed the pike would not attack
those particular fish but would devour others

SWlFTEST GLOBE GIRDLER

The latest .globe-trotter and the
swiftest who has ever sought to girdle
the world against time, Andre jaeger
Schmidt, wound up his trip in Paris
with a 'round-the-world record in 80
days and 18 hours.
Jager-Schmidt Is newspaper man
and one day was foolhardy enough to
tell the editor-in-chief of his paper
that the world could be girdled In 40
days. Then go and do it." said the
chief.
The young newspaper man made
preparations for his 'round-the-world
tour and completed his trip in less
than 40 days. He landed at Cher
bourg, France, and at once entered a
waiting aeroplane and flew to the,
French metropolis. Among the noted
cities he has visited are Moscow.
Omsk, Irkutsk. Hardin, Valdivostok.
Montreal and New York
After first leaving Paris he did not

EDUCATOR WHO WAS OUsTED

Although only two months had
elapsed since his first wife committed
suicide. Prof Charles w. Minard,
principal of the Marquette school in
Chicago, was secretly remarked to
Mrs. Bessie Belenger, and the couple
are now living on a Wisconsin farm
belonging to the much-discussed school
principal.
Minard has been formally suspend
ed by the board of education. He was
first called before the committee early
in June, following the death OF his
wife, Mrs. Matte r. Minard, who
committed suicide June 1, during an
unexplained absence of her husband.
At that time the schoolmaster made
an explanation and was retained in
his position.
Among his associates. the school
principal had a reputation for domes-
tic perfection. His personal habits
were described as ideal. He was
never known to smoke, drink or
gamble. From the outside. the life

ieanlng out OF the tOnneau to bay at
passing vehicles if his master has arrived at the
luxury of an automobile And in nine cases out
of ten the farmer and his family could not drop
contentedly off to slumber at night without the
assurance that one dogs are on watch to
give quick warning of anything out of the
binary.
The dog on the farm helps in a variety of ways,
but it is question after all whether his great
est value does not lie in the companionship he
affords. The farmer and the farmers wife, par
ucuarly if they live in isolated locality, would
be mighty lonely at times for the faithful
dog and lone child a farm, with play
mates within several miles, might be hard put
to it for amusement were 1t not for the self-same
anmal-proyerbially patient under childish ty-
ranny and ever ready to join in any dtverting
project. And, since most people consider big
dogs the best companions the farmer is fortu
nate in his ability to choose with reference to
such preference. The city man living In house
in row or, worse yet, cooped up in fiat, finds
the term house dog" synomous with small sze
but ia the country where the average home has
large lawn and the dwelling has wide porches
there need be no line of discrimination drawn be-
tween the house dog and the "out doors dog"
Closely linked to the sentimental value of the
farm dog companion Is the worth Of the serv
Ice he renders as guardian OF life and property
on the farm. 1t is not merely, for instance, that
such dog can serve companion for the farm
er's wife when she is left alone, but better yet
he is able to offer very tangible protection from
annoyance by tramps other unwelcome Wis
itors. Similarly the intelligent canine can exer
else almost human watchfulness over the chill
dren when they out of sight and out OF hear
ing of their elders, and in proof of the dogs ca
pabies in this role it is only necessary to point
to the very frequent rescues from drowntngs in
which dogs play the part of heroes.
At night when the farmer and his family are
asleep this vigilance on the part of alert CANNES
is an almost invaluable safeguard and under ideal
conditions 1t affords the farmer AS good or better
protection than can be claimed for his city cousin
residing street patrolled by policemen. 1t is
because of the diverse responsibilities of this
night sentry work that many a shrewd farmer
thinks it wise to keep not merely one good dog
but three four. With one dog inside the house
and another outside the building and with other
dogs inside and outside the barn the farmer need
have little fear that he will lack for warnings
should anything out of the ordinary transpire
These dogs can be depended upon, moreover, not
only to give warning OF the approach OF trespass-
ers but they are equally serviceable as aarmists
should fire break out should any of the stock
get loose in the night or invade the feed bins
Such canine services, tangible as is their value
are by means all the responsibilities that
grateful Digs assume in return for thar modest

conscious prominent place should
be accorded to "the farm dog,"-or
probably 1t would be better to say the
farm dogs, for it is rather unusual for
a farmer to have only one canine
helper and he may possess half a
dozen, without giving any more
u thought to the subject than the aver
age city man would have to bestow
upon one small four-footed servitor

~ted farmer accepts the presence of

living in New England village who
lost horse one day, and, failing to
find him, he went down to the public

dollars to whoever could bring him
back. A hale-witted fellow who
heard the offer volunteered to dis
cover the whereabouts Of the horse,
and sure enough he returned in half
an hour leading him by his bride.
The owner was surprised at the ease
with which his half-witted friend
had found the beast, and, on pass

horse?" To which the man replied:
