But ore single animal claims
mans protection, shares his food
and hearth Wanders at will and un-
molested through human haunts
and does absolutely. no work in re
turn; obeys no orders and does not
even serve as food or clothing.
This only exception to a world of
servants and of sacred enemies is
the domestic cat.
Think it over. The, cat will not
work. 1t will not guard your
home. Its flesh and fur serve no
use. Its one useful act is the
catching Of mice and rats. And
these it Stays and eats because it
wants to: not to help out its own
er. For exampleft does not bring
its captured prey to its owner to
eat. Nor will it hun: rodents unless
it happens to feel like doing so.
The cat won't work. 1t won't
even learn tricks unless it happens
to want to. And no one can punish
or torture it into learning any trick
it doesn't want to learn
That is why there are almost no
trick cats /, animal shows and why
the few that are there do such
very simple tricks. A dog can be
tortured ihto doing tricks. A cat
can't.
When some animals became mans
slaves and others fed from him,
the cat did neither. 1t simply took
all the favors and advantages man
had to offer and refused to do one
lick Of work in ex change. Beat a
dog and he will fawn on you. Beat
a cat and it will attack you and
then desert you. You can't conquer
the cat. You can't make it work.

CONSIDER THE CAT

There is just one animal man has
never conquered, never can en-
quer. Centuries ago every other
beast became the slave of man or
else fled far from human babita-
ton. Ons and one only refused
to flee or submit.
The horse, the dog, the COW, the
sheep, the goat, the pig,--all came
into camp thousands of years ago.
They have ever since worked for
man or fed him, or both. They
have been his unquestioned and
,unquestioning slaves. The elephants
too has become a servant as have

WHAT INTERVENTION
WOULD COST

The war departments plans,
with the estimate of an army Of
100000 men contemplates such a
show of superior force that it would
sweep everything before it.. On
this basis, the actual invasion might
be completed within six months,
How much longer the occupation
Of Mexican territory would be nee.
essary completely to restore peace
belongs to the realm of prophecy.
An invasion by 100000 men, last
ing for six months, it is believed
would approximate cost of $780,
100000 almost 100000 day.
This is an allowance of little more
than 500 per month per mana
conservative per capita cost to put
such an army in active service and
keep it moving.
At the end of six months, if the
work of invasion were over, there
would probably be left of the in
vading force 800, 900 men. 1t seems
cruel to speak in such cold terms
of the toll Of death and wounds and
illness and desertion. But the war
department statistics record under
the head of deterioration" a per-
centage of between 80 and 60 per
cent for the first six months for
even such a force. Converting these
800, 900 men into a statistic army
of occupation in a foreign land, it
is estimated, would require an out
lay of about S150,00O, 900 for six
months-an average of about $500
per man. And if at the end of the
year it would still require 300, 600
men for another year, that would
mean another toll Of $500, 000, 900.
For occupation of a territory SO
vast as that of Mexico would re-
quire scores of heavy garrisons in
sll the capitals of the Mexican
states and in the stragetic points
that command the lines Of COM
municatinn between them. Oswald

TWO ANCIENT AUTOMOBILES

Last week marked the birth.
days" of the two oldest motor cars
in existence. The Oldest is a French
car which was purchased by the
mayor of Troye, in the Champagne
district of France on December 4 4,
1891, so it was twenty-five years
old last Thursday. The second old
est automobile in active service is
also French car, which was COM
pleted on November 80, 1898, and
so was twenty years old last Sun.
day.
The present owner worlds most
ancient motor car is the Able Ga
vols, of Renneville in the Somme
district Of France. He bought the
crude continuance from the mayor
of Troyes, its original owner, in
1894. The cure loaned his machine
to the British Motor association for
its exhibition, where it attracted
more attention than any Of the
newest models. The prelate was
given a modern car to use while
the old one was on display, but he
asserted that he much preferred
the ancient vintage automobile.
According to the cure, the oldest
car has required but one overhaul
ing since it came into his possess
ion, and had never been in the
hands of the repair man at the
time he bought IL. He asserts that
the car has been on the road every
day until it was sent to the English
-exhioition.
The relic of past age Of automo-
bile building has a speed Of twelve
miles an hour. which is quite suf-
ficient for the needs of a country
clergyman. Its tires are of steel, and
while this has it's disadvantages, the
cure hes never had to spend a cent
in upkeep. The motor is two
cylinder affair, and consumes COM
psratlvely little gasoline.
An English automobile journal
says of this patriarch among cars:
"a layer of grease was applied
to the gears; occasionally they
were washed out with kerosene;
but for twenty.one years they have
been turning in a bath of grease
and dust. When they were dis
msntled for the overhauling of the
car recently they were found still
to have several years of usesul life.
