PLOW DEVISED BY ABRAHAM
University of Pennsylvania Has Pic
ture of Probably First Ma
chine of It's Kind.

The University of Pennsylvania
has Just discovered that it owns what
is believed to be the first picture OF
the plow invented by Abraham cen
turtles ago. According to the Egyp-
tologists at the museum, their trans
lations of the hieroglyphics show
that Abraham was the progenitor of
the harvester trust
While plows undoubtedly we're used
before the time Of this invention, the
Abraham plow is a combination seed
er and planter, and, according to the
inscription on the picture, three men
were necessary to operate it.
The picture was made upon Baby.
lonian brick, which was the custom in
those days. The apparatus had
tube-like attachment, into which the
seeds were poured. A vessel above
the ground facing the frame of the
pillow was used as a receptacle for the
seed, and then the harrow was at
tached to the back of the plow.
The Babylonians sowed and titled
according to Abrahams commands,
and with his invention they feared
neither the ravens nor any other
birds that devoured their grain.

COCA COLA HABIT, A GHOST.

We have all heard of ghosts, but none
of us have ever seen one. It's the same
way with coca cola "fends;" you can
hear about them but you might search
for them until doom's day and you
would never find one. Physicians who
have treated hundreds of thousands OF
drug-habit cases including opium, NOR
phine, cocaine, alcohol, etc, say that
they have never seen case where the
use of Coca-C Cola has so fastened itself
upon the individual as to constitute
habit in the true sense of the word. Al
though millions of glasses of Coca-Cola
are drunk every year, no Coca-Cola
fiends have ever made themselves WIS.,
ible at the doors of the sanitariums Tor
the treatment of drug habits.
The Coca-Cola habit is analogous to
the beefsteak habit and to the straw
berry habit and the ice cream habit
People drink Coca-Cola first because
they see it advertised and thereafter
because it tastes good and refreshes
their minds and bodies. They drink 1t
when they can get 1t and contentedly
do without it when they can't get 1t.
If you had ever witnessed the rawlings
of a real drug fiend when deprived of
his drug, If you had ever observed the
agony he suffers, you would never
again be so unfair as to mention Coca
Cola in the same breath with the
"habit-forming" drugs.-Adv.

SLIGHTLY Adulterated.

hsandre de Fouquieres, the celebrat

a group Of reporters. before his de
parture for France, about the Ameri.

1T is a mistake to suppose that
the question of money plays an i'm
portant part in American marriages,
said NJ. de Fouquieres. The love
match is not rare. Indeed, it is much
more common here than with us.
Smiling. the Frenchman added:
II believe there are few American
girls who would answer as the candid
New York debutante did when asked
if she was marrying for pure love.
pure lover said the debutante,
with a roquish smile. We'll, not alto
gether. Pure love, adulterated with

They WANTEDADOG
But Got a Baby Which Beats

BY C. 3. CRAWFORD.

They were a lonely old couple.
Seth Earl was sixty and his wife,
Ada. fifty-fve. II they had had chill

future more hopefully. But the lone
illness that had always encompassed
them since their only boy, Arthur,
had died in babyhood, seemed 10 De
closing in around them more tightly
from day to day, like tangible thing
They owned their house in the vii
lage and Earl's pension from the cor
poration that had employed him for
80 years, small though it was, pro-
yided them with the necessities OF
life. Since Earl had retired he had
mooned aimlessly about the garden
plot. He had always looked forward
to his long holiday, to a life of leis-
ured ease, and now life seemed TO
offer nothing.
Once, five years before, they had
discussed adopting a child. But Seth
had never returned to the subject.
The look upon his wife's face har-
rowed him, and he knew that no

the only picture in the neat little par
lor.
I guess I'm too old to start caring
for child now, Seth" said his wife.
Besides, we'd be in our graves, as
like as not, before it was grown old
enough to shift for itself"
Both of them had always been
somewhat afraid of life, and both
shrank from new enterprises. The
narrow round of their days had be-
come rut along which they travelled
aimlessly.

be company. He'd come to wake me
mornings, barking and wagging his
tail, and then what walks we'd have
together. Well. why not? Why
shouldn't have dog? Other men
have one"
AS he expected, Ada offered strong
opposition to the suggestion. But
Seth was insistent over his tremen-
dous plan, and gradually his enthusi-
asm won his wife over.
He'd muss up the house and
scratch things" she protested. But

IL you've set your heart on a dog l
suppose you must have one. But
where'd you get a dog, Seth? A good
dog would cost $40 and we haven't
a dollar to spare. Nobody we know
has dogs to give away-leastways,
not good dogs"
20, yes, we can get a dog, an
swered Seth promptly. The Society

reading something about it in the
paper yesterday. 1t says they pick
up stray dogs that nobody wants, and
lost dogs that no one claims, or that
have got turned adrift, and give them
away to anybody that will guarantee
them a good home. Ada" he contin-
ued firmly, I'm going into town to-
morrow to see that society, and I'm
coming home with a dog"
We'll. / suppose he can eat the
scraps" said his wife grudgingly. The
imminence of the event startled-al-
most terrified-her, but her husbands
eagerness quenched all further obJec-
tons on her part. She even began
to picture their neat little home with
it's new occupant
81 hope he won't be noisy, ill-tem-
pered dog, Seth" she said. And
don't you get one that's going to
bark all night, unless there's burglars
round. And mind he isn't biting
dog"
They discussed all manner of dogs
that night and finally settled upon a
fox terrier as likely to give the most
satisfaction. When Seth had depart
ed next morning Ada found. to her
establishment, that she had become
almost as eager as her husband. She
paced the floor nervously in the inter
walls between her duties, and once she
caught herself in the act Of polishing
the chairs, as though some human
visitor were expected. Il wonder
what sort Of dog Seth viii bring back
with him" she unused.
And when at length Seth stood at
the door. detected and dogless, a great
discomfort settled upon her.

Seth Earl put his wife aboard the

was gone upon their errand And as
the hours rolled by he, too, was over
taken by the same iTnpatience that
had overcome his wife on the preced-

busting the furniture and straighten-
ing the chairs as though human oc-
cupant were expected. And when at
last he heard tinkle at the bell he
could hardly open the door, he felt so
shaken.
Ada stood at the door, basket in
her arms, and her eyes were bright
with happiness, and the look on her
face was almost like that she had
