LEAP OF A KANGAROO.
Never Over Four Feet High, but May
 Be Thirty Feet Broad.

Never Over Four Feet High, but May
 Be Thirty Feet Broad.
 Precisely how far big kangaroo can jump is matter of some dispute. A writer in Cassell's Natural His- tory says that they can leap lover ten, fifteen or more feet" MT. H. R. Francis tells us that he has "known an old man to cover nineteen feet at each bound for full half a mile." and he believes that he does leap "an average of full twenty feet.'
 Mir. Lydekker is of opinion that the great kangaroo leaps mot far short of thirty feet" and MT. Thomas Ward gives it as "at least thirty feet" Prob ably Mir. Rudyard Kipling's twenty five feet to a bound" is near enough as general rule.
 But with this more than Olympic leaping power they seem commonly either unable or unwilling to rise any height from the ground. Their spe- cialty is broad jumping only. Mir. Ward says that they cannot clear an obstacle greater than four feet" and a five foot fence is commonly high enough for any kangaroo paddock London Times.

Memory In old Age.

Ways of the memory in later life ex- ercised the famous Dr. Jowett of OK ford when he reached it. but he found consolation. At fifty-five you fail to remember things-words. pictures, per. sons-after six months or years. in terval Yet the circle of objects which you recognize is ever becoming wider, and this power of recognition is a great aft if cultivated. There is the greatest value in forgotten knowl- edge Instead of the stores of mem- ory expressing you. with little trou- ble you can recall all that is useful or necessary" And to Lady Wemyss. re- covering from illness, he wrote: Hike you, l read book through and do not remember word of 1t. l think, how
 ever. that the reading of the book has an effect. and if 1 read it again un- derstand 1t better. believe that as we lose our powers of memory we may increase the power of reminiscence- that Is. of recalling what we want in small quantities for short time"

VERDICT OF THE AUDIENCE.
Ordeal Which Budding Actors In Nor

Ordeal Which Budding Actors In Nor
 mandy Must Face.
 It is not without fear that an actor makes his debut in the capital of Nor mandy. A debut in the French prov inces is by no means an easy ordeal to pass through. An actor has right to choose three different parts, says Mime. Rhea, which must be played inside of a month.
 The first and second debuts have no significance; he may be received coldly. critically or enthusiastically-it has no meaning: the third one decides his fate. That night after the play the manager, very solemn in his dress suit. appears before the audience and says: Monsieur or Mile. So-and-so has made his or her debut The management wishes to know the verdict of the pub lic."
 Then he produces placard on which is printed in large letters the word Accepted" If the actor pleases the audience applauds: if not, it misses until the manager produces another placard with the word Refused" Then the applause starts again. with out regard for the feelings of the poor. broken. hearted girl or boy who has been waiting in the wings for the yer dict of that inhuman jury called the public.-Argonaut.

Did the Romans Smoke?

"Why is it that smoking never crept into Roman literature?" 1 have asked To which correspondent answers that it has crept. It is mentioned by Plinv IN. Fl. xvi. 6-16,. He records the use of coltsfoot for smoking and recon. mends smoking the dried roots and leaves of this plant as remedy for ob- stinate colds and coughs. From this the botanical name of the coltsfoot (tussilago,. which means cough easer." has been derived British boys who have neither coughs nor colds still smoke coltsfoot surreptitiously and find that it makes them satisfactorily sick.

Game That Even New York
Fans Admit Is Sensation.
By SENATOR"

That final glorious victory of the Griff-

Shanks to establish a metropolitan repu-
tstion by stellar clouting and scintillat-
ing fielding, gave the big town folks an
opportunity to see a peppery. scrappy
outfit snarling throughout struggle
until the umpire lost all control Of the
combat. and then provided the Griffmen
with their first opportunity TO come
from behind and snatch victory when
all seemed lost. The fourth straight
victory on the Polo Grounds was landed
by an 8-to-4 score.

But the climax of Hank Shanks' Won

Wrangling Is Frequent.
The final clash with the Yankees was
marked by altogether too much wrang-

field than ball players. Bob Hart
stood for much that no other official

the fans began TO teer him for letting
