WORLD or HIS OWN CREATION
Great French Writer In His Absent
Mindedness Lived Far Apart From
His Fellow Men.

A writer in the st. James Gazette
tells us that Theophile Gautier's alb
sent-mindedness amounted to actual
somnambulism. He so identified him
self with his mental pictures as to
lose all consciousness of time and
place, and for the time he would actu'
ally live in the scene that he had ere
ated. We are told that rarely, IL ever.
has a man had such gift for getting
out of himself. He would enlarge on
his magnificent golden tea and break
fast service, when the most humdrum
china lined his shelves. And though
his servants were all treated in the
most fatherly way, Gautier would tell
you that he never permitted them to
utter a word in his presence, that he
only employed negroes. Il give my
orders by signs. If they understand
my signs, we'll and good. If they don't
I kick them into the Bosphorus." And
there is no doubt that he actually
heard the wave closing over the head
of a black slave. He actually meant
what he said. The street outside was
actually for him the Bosphorus.

COST THE LEOPARD HIS LIFE
Balloons Had Revenge for the Seizure
of One of Their Number, Though
Many Were Sacrificed.

The leopard likes the meat of GER
tain monkeys, but the indulgence o.
his taste sometimes costs him dear.
A remarkable battle between a leop

by a traveller in Africa, is described In

flying himself that all was safe, ut.
tered few deep notes.
Reassured blythe call, the others
quickly followed; a mother, with an
ever-watchful eye on her two young
ones, brought up the rear.
Suddenly, like streak of lightning,
a leopard sprang from behind a rock
and with one blow of his paw, felled
the little baboon nearest him. But be.
fore he could make off with his prey,
the furious mother attacked him. The
attack had come so quickly that the
rest of the company hardly realized
what had happened. But at the moth
er's cry of rage they all at once turned
and fell upon the robber.
In a moment the leopard was sur.
rounded and almost covered with fur
ious balloons. The battle waxed hot
Although numbers of balloons went
down before the powerful paws of the
cat, their places were Immediately
filled by others. 1t was not long be
fore the leopard began to tire; he
could make no noticeable impression
upon his assailants, and his strength
was sapped by their sharp teeth. He
struggled bravely, but in vain; slowly
he sank out of sight beneath the
fercely chattering foe that he hac
despised. The baby baboon was
avenged.-Youth's Companion.

RESERVED FOR THE EMPEROR
Fish of Remarkable DeIlcacy Had
Place Only on the Tables Of
the Highest. .aH

Now that China is republic It
would be interesting to know what
has become of the sacred fish which
In the days of the empire could be
eaten only by the emperor of China
and his folk and the emperor of Rus.
STA and his folk.
This fish Is an exquisite delicacy
SO delicious and rare that 1t has been
reserved for royal palates from time
immemorial. The fishermen whose
duty it was to take it from the only
stream in which 1t has been known to
exist---a small river lying between
Russian and Chinese vdomains-zhave
had orders to let none of 1t beN d.
verted from its noble destiny. Wheth-
er the fishermen themselves ever
yielded to what one can imagine as
an overmastering passion and in
dulged In a secret midnight repast OF
the glorious little fish of course none
can say. But certain 1t is that the or
binary Chinaman would have turned
shudderingly away from a banquet in
which the prohibited fish was an item,
no matter how his mouth watered for
the dainty.
One Of the things which makes the
fish such rarity is that it breeds only
one at time, very extraordinary
condition among fishes.
The Chinese-the mobiles, at least
have been a nation of epicures, and
there are no greater delicacies to be
found anywhere than those which APP

Doctor of Agriculture.

The time is coming when every
ural community of sufficient size will
have one or more agricultural experts
men professionally trained to serve
in an advisory way all the farmers OF
the community for fee. III. Af..
These men will understand the
chemistry of the soil and plant
growth; their laboratories will be
busy with soil analysis and the study
of local plant diseases; they will be
entomologists and psychologists, and
their value will be obvious to the en-
ightened farmers of new age.
These farmers, no longer content to
depend on the free clinic of the state
experiment station, will seek the ad'
vice and prescription of the local doc
tor of agriculture. The dignity and
the rewards of this profession are
ound to increase, for 1t Is founded up.

Minri-Readinu.

A young man and his wife, accom-
panied by their two children, boy
and girl, entered a street car and
sat down on one of the side seats
The girl was beauty, while the little
boy, with strongly marked features
and freckled skin, was quite the op
posite.
Directly across the aisle sat two
ladies, evidently a mother and daugh'
ter. The younger Of the two looked
critically at the children. Then she
scrutinized the parents. Then she
turned to the elder lady, smiled, and
made a whispered remark. The young
man, who had been watching her
leaned forward.
Madam" he said, you are quite
right. The girl fortunately looks like
mother, and the boy looks like me-"
That he had guessed accurately
what was passing in her mind, heI
look of confusion left no doubt

TEST HOG VACCINE.
Agricultural College to See If Hog Can
Transmit Disease.

Manhattan, Kan, April ia test
begun at the Kansas Agricultural COL
lege this week will show whether a hog
vaccinated with anti-hOg-cholera serum
can transmit the disease to a sus-
ceptible animal-one that has not been
vaccinated. When a hog is vaccinated
by the Simultaneous method it I'M
dergoes a light form of the disease. 1t
hasn't been proved to the satisfaction
of veterinarians that an animal in this
condition is not capable of transmit
ting cholera
The experiment will show, it is hoped,
whether it is advisable to bring sus-
ceptible pigs on a farm and place them
in a pen with animals that have re-
ceived the Simultaneous treatment. 1t
should prove or disprove the assertion
sometimes made, that animals under
going the effects of Simultaneous vac
cination should not be exhibited at
fairs because of the danger to other
animals The question also of vacci-
mating, simultaneously, only a part or
a herd, doubtless will be settled by this
test. Sixty or seventy hogs Will be
used in the experiment.
