When the French government was
transferred to Bordeaux, and the start
OF President Poincare and his cabinet
was to be made in automobiles, Girls.
Girls, the presidents favorite cat, was
right on the spot and waiting to go.
though there was a great deal OF lug

thought of. She was irresistible and,
her qualities as a traveller being we'll
known, she formed a part of the dis
tinguished party.
Gris-Gris is a Misunderstanding
Siamese cat, who understands French
and knows her France well, as she has
often made Journeys with her master.
During the past winter she made the
journey with him by train to Nice,
and when the train stopped at Cannes
the mayor, on entering the salon to
greet the president, was much aston
ished to find him caressing the purring
cat, who had just finished her break

War Makes Changes.

A curious coincidence Is reported
from South Africa. where Genera
SHUTS, as minister OF defense, is ar
ranging for the defense OF Port Mol
10th and the copper mines at 0okier
against a possible raid from German
Southwest Africa. II was In this dis.
trict that General SHUTS himself led
a most daring raid In the last weeks Of
the Boer war. He suddenly appeared
out OF the desert country to the east
at the head>of mounted force and
summoned Ookiep to surrender. Colo
mel Shelton successfully defended the
little town, but the Beers destroyed
the railway that connects It with Port
Nolloth and did some damage to block
houses. A relief force from Port Mol
10th raised the siege and few days
later the dashing Boer leader himself
at Port Nolloth to join in the
negotiations for peace.

Only Literature That Stimulates
Thought, He Considers, 10
Worth Consideration.

Lord Bryce. speaking In London on
popular occasion Just before the
war. said what the schools and uni
versities ought to do was to cultivate
the habit OF thinking. They spent a
good deal of time on reading, espe-
cially on reading newspapers. but that
did not mean thinking. They spent a
great deal OF time on business. but a
great deal of business effort was com
paratlvely mechanical and rule Of
thumb.
What he meant was something diff
ferent-that they should apply their
minds to questions which did not con-
Germ their business, but In which, as
good citizens and intelligent human
beings, they ought to be occupied,
Public Opinion says.
There was good deal of fiction well
worth reading, but no work of fiction
was worth reading IL II did not set
them thinking, and unless 1t was
book which contained vivid character,
reflections and suggestions, which
were worth bordering over, and pic
lures of manners OF society, whether
OF old times or of today. Anything
which stimulated their thought was
worth reading. II one cultivated the
books which stimulated the habit of
thinking one had a source of pleasure
that went on continuously throughout
life.
