SNAIL'S TRIP ON RAZOR EDGE
Scientist Makes Interesting Discovery
While Studying MoIIusk's Method
Of locomotIon.

when photographing the SNAIL"
writes Professor Ward in the Strand,
Il was surprised at the fact that even
the rough cut edge Of a sheet Of glass
presented no difficulties to It's loco
motion; its even pace was continued
In spite of the fact that the sharp cor
ner appeared to be penetrating its
body. There, too, we have exhibited
the animals delicate sense of touch,
and this led me to make a further ex-
pertinent.
After l had placed the snail on the
butt Of a razor's blade it slowly moved
along the back Of the blade and then
climbed completely over the sharp
edge, the razor being in excellent con-
dition. AS the successive waves
brought the fore part of It's foot near
the edge Of the blade it's head was
held low down, and the lower and
shorter pair Of feelers nearly touched
the blade, as IL feeling the way.
AT the moment when the sharp
edge was reached the small feelers
were fully extended toward it, and
just at the very instant when l ex-
pected to see them cut off they were
both instantly retracted. They were
little more than a hair breadth away,
and though the lower feelers possess
no eyes, yet by their sudden move
ment | was quite convinced that the
snail at that instant recognized dan
ger.
Still the foot travelled on, and
slowly the snail dragged its whole
weight Of exactly n and a half
ounces yer the edge, later moving to-
ward the butt and remaining perfectly
unframed. The species experimental
with was the Roman or edible kind,
which accounts for Its comparatively
large weight, 1t being the largest of
British snails."

THOUGHT TIN WAS SILVER
Chinese Pirates Meet Bitter DIsap.
poIntment After RIskIng Their
: Necks for Loot.

II was q surprise to the Chinese
pirates who looted the Pacific Mail
liner Asia. wrecked in Oriental wa.
ters sometime ago. when what they
believed to be slabs of silver turned
out to be nothing but tin. They were
more than disappointed in view Of the
fact that they had risked their necks
to get the supposed precious metal
and had conveyed 1t a great distance
In sampans to dispose of It.
According to w. w. Pipkin. con-
nected with the Chinese maritime u 4.
toms service. who arrived the other
day of the liner Persia. there were at
least 100 small Chinese fishing boats
that put In at various places laden
with tin. In their haste to get away
with the cheap but shining metal the
pirates had overlooked the more valu.
able silks and other rich far eastern
products which were in the Asia's
cargo.
There IL nothing now visible OF the
old Pacific mailer. according to pas
sengers on the Persia. which passed

1t is amusing on what grounds
g. II. Dillon of Yankton, candi-
date for congress from the first
district, is attacked. He is put on
record as being at one time against
a law designed to curb the destruc
tive action of the rich lumberyard
owners in forcing an individual
out of business. But anyone who
wishes to 60 deeper into the text
of it, will find that it does not
deliver the goods and if put to a
test, it would be declared uncon-
stitutional. Since Mr.. Dillon's
enemies have failed to show where
he did not, in his public career,
try to do the most good for the
most people and had not support
ed sane measures, they might as
well make his name of gray hair
the leading issue and see if they
can't defeat him on that.

The Yankton May Festival of
Music occurs Monday and Tues
day, May 9th and 2Sth. The
Yankton Choral Union, Professor
l.. n. Daily of Yankton Conserva-
tory conducting, with the Minnea-
polls Symphony Orchestra, Emil
Oberhoffer conducting, assisted by
able soloists, will give three grand
concerts, a choral program, a sym
phony concert, and an operate
program. This festival has come
to be an annual event in Yankton,
the result of a notable example of
public spirit the benefits of which
reach not only her own citizens
but the people of a large circle of
towns about, many of whom are
not slow to avail themselves of the
rare musical opportunities ffered
on these occasions.
1t is not a mOney-maklng
scheme. Last year citizens of
Yankton pledged the necessary
guarantee fund of $500, making
up the deficit of two or three hund
red dollars which occurred. Again
this year .guarantor have given the
enterprise financial backing neces-
sary to bring forces together for
a brilliant festival season. This is
a sort of a civic pride and loyalty
worthy of emulation.

IS ALWAYS SOME CELEBRITY
Nobody Ever Recalls That In Previous
incarnation He Was a Hum
BILE Person.

DR.. Julia Sears, head of the New
Thought School," says: There are
enough people on the planet today who
remember one or more of their incar-
nations to make It a certainty that re-
incarnation Is a positive fact"
All right, doctor; we'll add this to
our list Of positive facts, which Is al
ready become somewhat unwieldly.
Still, there Is a question which has been
puzzling US a good while, and we now
make bold to ask: Why Is It that,
among all those people who remem-
Der one or more of their incarnations,
not one a remember being an hod
carrier, an undertaker's assistant, or
an office boy In a soap factory? There
Is a strong tendency to run toward
royal families, court musicians, and
philosophers. Two or three persons
can distinctly remember having been
Joan Of Arc, and the number of rein.
carnated Napoleons and Louis Four.
teenths Is growing all the time. But
the man we are anxious to meet is
the chap who can remember with
pleasure his incarnation as the
brawny white wings" who pushed tn
scoop around the arena of the Roman
Coliseum after the show was over and
the animals retired, or the employee of
the Imperial Health Department
whose duty II was to descend into the
Cloaca Maxima when It got clogged.
Another New Thought which comes
at this moment Is in connection with
the statement Of DR.. Sears that she
was the italian singer Marsha 400
years ago, was bitterly discontinued,
and now she longs to sing and cannot.
There's matter for rumination in this.
We shall hurry away now to tell the
young woman in the apartment ad.
joining ours that the reason she longs
to sing. or thinks she al sing, and
cannot, Is because she had q sweet
pipe several hundred years ago and
didn't make tho most of it.-Puck.

Alien property Holders

The law Of the land respects the
right Of citizen and alien alike to have
and to hold property. The alien res.
ldent in the United States may dis
pose of his property by will with the
same feeling of security as the Ameri-
can. This is equally true Of the
alien who has taken steps to make
himself a citizen Of the country.

II IL impossible 10 gauge a ewes

FIRST indices OF her condition and the
ono most commonly adopted by sheep
growers. In general a eve ought to
be gaining about six pounds a month.
II she was uncommonly thin to begin
with she should be gaining even more.
while II she was fat. she ought TO be
gaining pound or two less.
To be In good condition a eve ought
also to be enjoying an easy and thor.
ough digestion and an active circula.
ton Of blood. These things depend In
part on the amount OF exercise given
her also. A pregnant eve ought to be
given some succulent food which helps
to keep her digestion In good order
and her feed should contain a goodly
portion OF the protein elements which
are necessary in tissue building and
in the growth OF the foetus. She ought
to have plenty OF exercise every day
as this keeps the muscles Of her d.
gestive apparatus in good play and
her circulation active.
