Cold Storaue Cats,

Uncle Sam has thousands of cats, which he employs at a cost of aboGt $15 year each. The government maintains in the Philippine Islands d small army of "cold storage cats. At the immense cold storage depot at Manila, where great quantities of pro- visions are kept, cats are most neces- sary, and at the establishment of the post there were sent there some of the famous cold storage breed. This breed originated in the great warehouses of a cold storage company and has devel7 oped special qualifications for endur- ing extreme cold. These cold storage cats are short tailed and chubby, with long and heavy ,fur.-Argnnaut.

A Child Wondar.

The French Academy of Sciences in 1729 examined /the case of a French lad only seven years old who. in all respects save that of intelligence. was the equal of man of twenty. His re- markable physical development began when he was two years old. At four he could do the farm work of boy of fifteen or sixteen. and at seven he was fully grown man. Although his physique was thus remarkably devel- oped, his intelligence was no greater than that of children of the same age. He died before he was twenty. As Is usual in such cases of premature de- velopment, his strength faded away. and he became prematurely old before other men would attain maturity.

The Lifs Story of a Sow.

To get the full flavor of this anec- dote, which occurs in Watts "Edin- burgh and the LOthians,' you must know Edinburgh's Cowgate and it's GU rious buildings. It happened to Dr. Guthrie. after whom a street in the neighborhood, inclosing part of the Horse Wynd and College Wynd, is named. Dr. Guthrie had climbed to the summit of tall land one day on a charitable visit When he entered the room he perceived a SOW. of which the family seemed very proud. How ever did you get that great animal up stairs?" asked the doctor, panting after his climb. ''Ay, but it never was doon"' was the laconic and conclusive reply.

Beware of Cousins.

Cousins are not as simple as they
seem. The very fact Of being cousin
or having cousin is complicated The
laissez feire Of cousinship is both elud-
ing and deluGing. Cousins will be cous-
ms even If you did not choose them
They can borrow money from you,
visit you without being asked, tell peo-
pie they belong to your family, contest
your will, even fall in love with you,
and cousin once removed is twice as
apt to. Never completely trust q
cousin; never depend on his not doing
any Of these things; never take him
FOR granted. The ''cousinly kiss may
or may not mean what it means, and
cousins always do kiss. It's part Of
being cousins.
Not that cousins need necessarily
prove perilous Once in g blue moon
they invite sou to Europe or leave you
money, but that almost takes an aunt
or uncIe.-Atlantic.

GoathA,s Birthday.

In August. 1918, Goethe vent to

One morning when be rose he request
ed Charles, his domestic, to place a
bottle Of red wine and glass in each

window to drink . glass Of wine.
When be had nearly emptied the bot
ties the doctor arrived ''Ah," said
Goethe. you are come. Do you know
it is my birthday No said the
doctor. 1t is not your birthday. It
falls tomorrow"
Only the production Of the almanac
could convince Goethe that be was q
DAY out IN his reckoning. When he
discovered his mistake he gave vent
to a strong expression and, after q
long pause. turning to the doctor, said,
Then I have got drunk for nothing"

Meals In the Good OIG Days.

In the sixteenth century it was con-
sidered . sign Of efeminacy to eat
breakfast. Says Harrison in his ]'"'
scription of Britain" published in 1850:
"Of old we had breakfastes in the fore
noone, beverages or munitions after din
ner, and thereto reare suppers. Now
these old repasts, thanked be GOD, are
yerie we'll left, and each one, except
here and there some young hungrle
stomach that cannot fast till dinner
time, contenteth himself with dinner
and supper only. The nobility, gentry
and students ordinarily go to dinner at
Il before noon and to supper at 8 The
merchants dine and sup seldom before
y at noon or 6 at night, especially IN
London. The husbandmen also dine at
high noon and sup at I or S, but out OF
terms, in our universities, the scholars
dine at lO."-London Chronicle.

Eis Real Motive.

General F. D. Grant at Washing
tons birthday dinner in New YORK
some years ago told story about a
young Boston Tory.
This Tory" he said, fought during
the Revolution neither on one side nor
on the other. he took pleasure trip
on the continent, and he didn't come
back home again until the war was
over. he was treated very coldly by
society Oh his return, and this grieved
his good old mother to the heart The
dear old lady tried to explain the mat

perhaps the more arduous duty, Of pro

How to Walk.

There is no virtue in dawdline
saunter. The slow and languid drag
sing Of one foot after the other which
some people call walking would tire
an athlete. 1t utterly exhausts weak
person, and that is the reason why
many delicate persons think they can,
not walk. TO derive any benefit from
the exercise it Is necessary to walk
with light, elastic step which swings
the weight Of the body so easily from
one leg to the other that Its weight
is not felt and which produces q
healthy glow, showing that the slug
gish blood Is stirred to action in the
most remote veins

Noticing the look Of humiliation on

Wear Slippers In the House.


In England it is the custom not Only
Sor grown persons, but also for chill
dren, to wear slippers in the house.
English children as well as groTnups
wear shoes as we IN America wear
rubbers, only out Of doors This IS not
only a more comfortable custom with
regard to footwear than ours, but it
IS also more healthful. The streets
and sidewalks and even the yards are
dusty. This dust, full Of germs as it
Is, should not be tracked all over the
house. We would do well in the In
terests Of preventive medicine to pro-
vide slippers for our children and to
Insist upon the wearing Of them II

from shoes to slippers, even three OF
four times a day, than it is to cure an
Illness the germ Of which may have
