An Official Report on the Cat.

The commander of commiSSariat department in one of the large PruS- sian towns received from the board ot control the following official Inquiry:
 "Why was there daily expenditure of 3 pfennig about farthingsl for the cat of the military stores depot, while for the cat of the forage depot only 5 pfennigs were required for the pur' chase of milky
 Not such an easy question!
 The explanation officially furnished by the commander ran as follows:
 "The cat of the forage department Is nourished on the mice which have fat tened on the corn and meal, but the cat of the military stores department has only the mice which get a scanty hy- ing by guawing the leather straps. This is the reason for the extra ex- pense for milk for the latter"
 The explanation must have sutficed. for thereafter the milk ration for the depot eat remained undlsputed.-Lon' don Tit Bits.

American Restaurants.

What diSconcerts the European in the great American restaurant Is the ex- cessive. the occasionally maddening slowness of the service and the lack of interest in the service. Touching the latter defect, the waiter Is not impolite; he is not neglectful But he Is too of. ten passively hostile or at best neutral. He or his chief has apparently not grasped the fact that buying a meal is not like buying a ton or coal. If the purchaser is to get value for his money he must enjoy his meal, and if he is to enjoy the meal 1t must not merely be efficiently served, but 1t must be eff ciently served in a sympathetic atmos- phere. The supreme business of a good waiter is to create this atmosphere Arnold Bennett in Harper's.

An Ennlish Bellman.

Some occupations attain importance simply by surviving. The bellman was not held in much esteem when he was really useful, but now in such places as he still pursues his "calling" he is quite a parsonage In one fashionable west country health resort the bellman goes around in a smart uniform, mount ed on a pony and when he has cried his news, generally offers of reward for lost property. delivers discourse to bis hearers concerning himself as the only mounted bellman in England and then produces picture post cards with his photograph. which seem to have a ready sale.-LondOn Standard

Eyes That eeeoma Stars.

The most remarkable belief or super stltlon concerning the human eye is one that Is current in Australia. Among the natives of that country 1t Is the general belief that the left eye of every chief becomes star the mo ment the chief in question is done with it. The sun. they say, is the eye of the greater god" and the moon the eye of the lesser god" All the stars were once the left optics of human beings of high rank. Shungle, celebrated chief, once ate the eye of a valiant chief, thinking thereby 10 increase the brilliancy of his own eye star" But the eye burned through Shungle and killed him. whereupon his own left eye became joined to the one he had eaten, and the two may now be seen as beautiful double star lying just to the east of the Southern Cross.

As,kSnina Time.


 From the best information we have the calendar came into use 2330 B. O.. with a week of seven days and year of twelve months, named after zodiacal signs. The year consisted of 360 days. which probably suggested the division of the circle into degrees Astronomi- cal chronology was divided into cycles of GO years. 600 years and the star, or 3,600 years. The observation of Bel" the great Bahylonian work on astron- omy and astrology. gave record of eclipses of the sun and moon. conjunc- tons and phases of some of the plan- cts, the time of the new year and many other scientific problems. Many of the calculations made in this ancient as- tronomy are of the utmost importance even in our day, and to 1t Is due the era of Nabonassar. one of the most famous in the annals of chronology, the basis of all the computations of Ptolemy, and the dates in connection with Alexander and Aristotle. Since its epoch. Feb. 20, TAT B. C., 1t main tained it's ground till after the com- mencement of the vulgar era.-Ex. change

A Hundrnd Million Suns.

A peep into the heavens through a modern telescope Is a peep into the very depths of mystery. With such an instrument one may gaze upon lO0- 100000 stars, each of them a burning. blazing sun. From what little we know of creation we cannot but be- lieve that each of those suns is giving light and heat to Q train of planets, just in the same manner that our sun gives light and life to his little flock of worlds. Beyond those 100,Ooo,OOO suns there may be hundreds of millions more Thus they may continue "sys- tem after system and worlds without end"

Sneezinu.

Sneezing is the best brain clearer known. Mary persons conclude an attack of faintness or fainting with violent sneezG. Our ancestors took snuff from a belief in the efficacy of sneezing. But tobacco so taken is in part absorbed into the blood and hurts the system. Tickling the nOstrils with a feather or straw will act as well as taking snuff. Try 1t when you feel faint. It cannot do harm.

The Same Idea,

It is recorded that Napoleon, when asked to summarize the art of war, an- swered briefly, "The art of war con sists in being strongest at a given point at a given time" This answer was terse and true, but that born but un' taught fighter, General Forrest ex- pressed the same idea. yet more briefly and forcefully. When the grim old Confederate was asked how to win in battle he replied, "Get thar fust with the mostest men"

True Art


 Critics had praised me, academies had granted me exhibition space" said the artist; "still was modest enough to think that wasn't any great shakes as a painter. The thing that finally convinced me that maybe was no dub, after all, was the remark of a woman who knew a good deal more about bar gain counters than she knew about art She studied a picture that had made critics overwOrk their vocabulary in praising it, and her only comment was: My! I'll bet the cloth in that wom- ans tea gown cost every cent of S2.JO a yard Just as a matter of curiosity I looked up my model and found that the dress she wore had cost just that yard. Then knew that l had been gifted with the divine fire. To depict values so faithfully that experienced shoppers can tell the cost of the cloth you paint seems to be hitting old art up at a pretty lively gait. York Press.

An Anpstizina Greek Dish.


 Whatever may have been the secret of ancient Greek culture, 1t seems prob able at least that 1t did not lie in the cuisine of the race, if the details of 1t that have been discovered by modern scholars are to be taken as &C., curate. A writer in Frazer's Magazine recently told of one dish that might have provoked a warrior to desperate deeds, but would hardly have inspired an artist or a poet He says they mix ed hogs lard and milk with thick gruel, making a paste of 1t and adding fresh cheese, yolks of eggs and beef brains. The mixture was wrapped in fig leaf and boiled In the gravy of a chicken or kid. Then they took ofr the fig leaf and soused the morsel in pot of boil ing honey. then ate it.-Steward.

The Fire Eatino Trick.

The first known fire breather was a Syrian slave named Eunus, leader in the servile war fin Sicily. l30 B. c. He pretended to have immediate communi. cation with the gods. When desirous of inspiring his followers with courage he breathed flames and sparks from his mouth In order to perform this mar. vel Eunus pierced nutshell at both ends, and. having filled 1t with some burning substance, he put 1t In his mouth and breathed through It. The same trick is performed today in an improved manner. The juggler rolls together some flax while 1t Is still burning By this means the fire is re- tained ln the ball for long time. He slips this ball into his mouth unper' ceived and breathes through 1t Ills breath revives the fire, and he sustains no injury so long as he inhales through his nostrils only.

one of them to appear near the con-
vention. What was the CONSERVATION,
then, in the Lincoln camp when 1t
was reported one afternoon that old
Abe" had been seen In town and that
he was calling on his Chicago friends
and swapping stories about everything
except the presidency.
Lincoln must be hustled out OF town.
1t would be ruinous to have 1t known
that he had been in Chicago. Teller
was sent TO eject him. He found the
presidential candidate at a hotel, en-
joying himself watching the crowds.
Mr.. Teller explained his mission. deli
cately as possible, but very firmly.
Mr. Lincoln protested that he didn't
have any chance worth bothering
about. Mr.. Teller insisted that there
was an excellent chance. and that the
proprieties would have to be OBJ
served in these little matters The
New England people were punctilious
about such affairs of form. AT last
Mr. Lincoln yielded.
"I'll CO." he said. III do it be-
cause l believe you fellows are right.

INDIANS AT POISON SPRINGS
Many Fighting Redskins Engaged in
Civil War-Sometimes One Tribe
Arrayed Against Another.

Many Indians were in the armies
operating in Missouri, Arkansas and
northern Louisiana in the Civil war.
Enlistment was begun by the Con-
federates in the early days of HOSTILE
ties, but not all the red nations would
consent to fight against the Union.
Thus tribes were arrayed against one
another. One instance of an engage
ment between Indians of victorious
Confederate army and three regi-
ments of Union soldiers is told by
William Ramey, a resident of Chicago.
On April Is, 1864, was fought the bat
tie of Poison Springs, Ark, by part Of
Gen. Frederick Steeles expedition, OF
which Mr.. Ramey tells as follows:
when General Banks was carrying
on his Red River campaign in the
