Magic Of the Quail Feather.

Science Is newly indebted to the California
university professor who learns from an old
Indian sage ot,the sierras that the long tail
feather Of mountain quail possesses the same
proberties'as ourmodern X-ray. and. indeed, for
ages has been used by the aboriglnes for locat-
ing broken, bones. This is done simply by hold

lens OF the. feather, which We are told acts ex-
actly as does a divining rod.
: But when Il comes to magic manipulation
with bones we would stake the old southern
darkys rabbit foot against the Indians quail
feather any day, Any devotee OF the dice on

no magic more mysterious or mighty than that

EUROPEAN STRUGGLE SAID TO

LONDON Writing from Rerne. the
Morning Posts correspondent in
switzerland describes the manner in
which mobilization was carried out in
that country.
When the fiaring orange placards
appeared ordering mobilization says
the correspondent. "alI the old spirit
OF the confederates seemed to revive.
The Swiss then showed their very
best side. their finest qualities. Every
man, from the highest officer to the
humblest private. received His march
ing orders, and every man obeyed
them quito quietly, but instantane-
ously. and with an entire absence or
fuss indeed, with minimum Of COM

Mobilization has come at a most

Germs to be of much use, and the extra
work has fallen chiefly on the Swiss
women, who, with the help of boys,
are tending the cattle on the summer
pastures. II is hoped that soon the
Landsturm or last reserve will be
allowed to help with the harvest.
The distress attendant on war is
already being felt In Switzerland, for, .
as the correspondent of the Morning
Post states. there are not merely the
families Of Swiss soldiers to be cared
for. but also those OF many Germans
called to serve in the army, and OF
numerous factory workers who are
now either voorhees, or only partly en-
ployed.
