GO TO WAR WITH TURKEY
Liberation Of Bulgarians, Servians and
Greeks Demanded.

Sofa.--The attitude Of Bulgaria is
such that war with Turkey, in which
Servia and Greece will join, is inevitable.
None of these three countries proposes
the annexation of Ottoman territory.
The war will purely and simply be fight
for the liberation of the Bulgarians,
Servians and Greeks in Macedonia, who
for the last four years, since the estab-
lishment of the new regime in Turkey,
have been so shamefully treated that
their position has become intolerable.

INDIAN NAME FOR WHISKY
Called "Fire Water" Because of Their
Method of Discovering If 1t
Was Diluted.

When the Hud6n's Bay Trading
company began it's trading among the
Indians it was found that by selling
the Indians liquor they could more
easily be induced to trade their pele
tries.
The first whisky or intoxicant of in1
ferior quality was distilled in England
and brought to America in large bar
rels, but in transporting it overland
it was found more convenient to-
divide it into small kegs.
The traders soon became aware OF
the fact that by diluting the whisky
with water more furs could be OBJ
tanned. This was practiced for some
time but the Indians learned that
good whisky poured on fire would
cause it to flame up, whereas had the
whisky been diluted the fire would be-
quenched. 1t was by this simple eX-
pertinent that the term fire water" be-
came a common word among Indians.
A chief who had experienced the
bad effects of whisky among his peo-
pie said it was most certainly distilled
from the hearts of wildcats and the
tongues of women from the effects
it produced.-From Bonfort's Spirit
and Wine Circular.

WAS DAZZLING IN THE PAST
Pilgrim Somewhat ResentfuI Because
He Was Mlsled Into Perusing
an Old Magazine.

Among the things I'd like to know
about" remarked the weary looking
pilgrim with the drab mustache, on
the Car, "is this: How does a doctor
or dentist come by his magazines?
Does he go around among his friends
and buy up old ones after his friends
have read 'em, SOS to get 'em cheaper?
Or does he buy new magazines and
then lay them away somewhere and let
them age by natural process before

TOO ELABORATE A SYSTEM
Mr. Spiegelhausen's Idea of Postal
Cards, However, Worked Very
Well for a Time.

Mr.. Spiegelhausen found it hard to
remember at home certain things he
had thought of in business hours, and
conversely matters that occurred to
him at night would escape his mind
before he reached the Office next
morning After trying various un-
successful methods of memory culti-
walton, he hit on the plan of writing
postal cards to himself and address
ing them to the other place from
which ever he happened to be in at
the moment Thus the last mail.
would bring to the house one or more
cards with such memo. scrawled
upon 1t: Remind Mrs. S. to give
my coat to cleaner" and vice versa
the first mail downtown would re-
mind him: See J. T. w. in re. thou-
sand lot umbrella canes"
For a time this served the purpose,
but presently his precise and farsee-
ing mind began to anticipate and
work more and more in advance, so
that on a Monday night he would
mail a card from home saying: BE
sure to send card from office tomor-
row to remind yourself of dinner en-
gagement Tuesday" Then he got to
jotting down appointments on postal
cards a whole week ahead, sending
other cards to warn himself when to
drop them in the letter box, land final-
ly his harassed brain refused to work
any longer on such a strain.
One evening his wife asked him
whether he had thought to attend to
the season tickets for the opera, and
he replied with a sheepish attempt at
laughter: 81 suppose that was on the
pile of cards on my desk this morn
ing. I saw the postman bring them,
but l forgot to turn them over and
see what they said"

DANGEROUS FISH TO MEET
Habitat of South American Waters
That Seems Particularly Fond
of the Human Body.

Probably one of the most dangerous
and least known of mans watery ene-
mics, says the Wide World Maga-
zine, is the candern, or canern. a fish
three to eight inches long, and guilty
of the extraordinary habit of diving
suddenly into the human anatomy by
the most convenient channels
There are two distinct species, one
eel-like in appearance, blunt-headed
and smooth-bodied. the other armed
with a sharp, bony snout. two to three
inches in length, swallow-taileu, and
barbs. 1t is particularly attracted by
the human body, into which it dives
suddenly and with great force, pro-
ducing a shock somewhat akin to a
powerful electric discharge
In the case of both types a serious
surgical operation is involved; but in
the case of the Benz variety the more
the fish or the victim wriggles the far
ther the fish penetrates-and it can
not get back. 1t frequently causes
death, for surgeon is a rara avis in
these wilds.

Riveralta, South America, where vic
TINS are common. The fish is a
bloodsucker and can be easily caught
with lump of raw meat, into which
it dives in a much similar way-the
proboscis being probably its usual
means Of securing blood.

Muscles and Brain.

Experiments conducted by Mosso Of
Turin indicate that physical educa-
ton and gymnastics serve not only
for the development of the muscles,
but for that of the brain as we'll 1t
is becoming evident, in the opinion of
this authority. that as much time
should be devoted to muscular exer-
else as to intellectual exercise, and
that children should begin reading
and writing only after thev are nine
years old.
Muscular fatigue exhibits pheno-
mena identical with intellectual ia
tigue. Nerve cells show tendency to
rest every ten seconds. 1t is probable
that only part of the brain is active
at time; the various parts relieve
one another. The more mobile any
animals extremities are, the more in
telligent, other things being equal, it
is.-Harper's Weekly.

Value of KNOWLEDGE.

Mrs. Featherton had embroidered a
gown for herself. Butterflies were the
design. and she had made them look
so natural that-so Mr.. Featherton
said-one would think they were ac-
tually alive. But Mrs Featherton's
little son was more critical. He re-
garded the decorative insects long
and earnestly, opened his lips to
speak, and then, with remarkable self
control for one so young, closed them
again without speaking,
"Well, frankie" said his mother at
last, tell me what you think of my
butterflies"
"They are very nice, mother" re-
piled he seriously, "but the next time
you embroider butterflies, would you
mind putting the antennae on the 9th.

Breathe Through the Nose.

Breathing through the nose is i'm
portant, not only for the purpose OF
filtering the air by removing dust and
germs, but in cold weather for the pur-
pose of moistening and warming the
air before it enters the deeper air pas
sages. The total surface of the nasal
cavity has been estimated to be on an
average of about Is square inches. The
mouth surface has an area of less than
II square inches, or only tbout two
thirds that of the nose. 1t has been
noted that runners who breathe
through the nose have much greater
endurance than those who breathe
through the mouth.
