BEAR QUEERLY BUILT
EXPERT TELLS ABOUT STRUC-
TURE OF THE ANIMAL.
Nature Evidently Had Distinct Idea
in Mind When It Produced
Bruin In Such Radical
Form

4 was long curious to know" said
Pike county, Pennsylvania, bear
expert, why it was that the bear has
that peculiarly clumsy and apparently
painful gait, but | never found any
one who could give me a satisfactory
explanation OF it, so | went out and
killed Il bear to find out for myself.
The reason was a very simple one.
Il found, in the first place, that the
bear has no clavicles in the shoulder
to keep the shoulder bones steadily
apart, as is usual In animals, and con.
seQuently when the bear moves his
forelegs the shoulder blades work or
slide loosely on the sides
Then, again, the bear has the ankle
joints of his hind legs plumb on the
feet. That peculiar structure gives the
first joint OF the hind legs bend in
the opposite objection from that which
it has in the legs of other animals.
This loose and queer rigging of the
joints of the legs and shoulders of the
bear gives him that odd wabble or
shuttle with which he makes his way
along, although clumsy and retarding
as that gait appears, 1t can produce a
speed and agility on occasion that is
surprising. The broad base which the
foot of the bear forms, moreover, gives
the animal steady and secure foot
ing no matter what the appearance
may be to the contrary.
THE unique position of the hind
ankle joints as to the formation of the
hind feet is what enables the bear to
rise to his feet with such facility, and
to maintain secure position standing
erect, while he uses his forepaws in
grasping or striking with his we'll
known readiness and effectiveness.
The absence of clavicles In the
shoulders Is what gives the bear the
great hugging or COMPRISING power
in his forelegs, which is of the great
90. "orvico 20 him in climbing and in
dealing with his foes. In fact, IL he
had the shoulder formation character
IS,,, OF other animals he could not
climb tree at all, for he could not &C
complish il by his claws as the cat and
squirrel and raccoon and other animals
OF arboreal habit do, nor would the
bear dog need to stand in fear of that
terrible embrace OF his"

An interesting case or spntting
hairs has arisen in Ireland In the
administration of the national insur-
ance act as to whether tobacco Is
drug, a necessity or a luxury, all three
views being taken by different authori-
ties, says London Tit-Bits. 1t appears
that the experimenting medical OH
Ger Of the Dublin district recommend
ed that a consumptive patient coming
under the provisions OF the act be
given tobacco for smoking to comfort
him in his last days. Offering to pay
for the weed himself. but the insur-
ance committee decided that the to-
bacco was necessary to the patients
treatment and sent in the bill to the
insurance commissioners. Two weeks
later the local authorities received a
lengthy communication demanding an
explanation of their action in charging
the government with shilling's worth
of tobacco Their reply was that to-
bacco was recognized as drug in the
British codex under the title of nico-
tiana tabacium and that it had been
prescribed by registered practitioner.
Thereupon the commissioners consult
ed learned X. C.'s and they are still
wrestling with the subject. Mean
while the patient is dead, the tobacco
has been smoked and the expense OF
the disputation hes already reached
hundred times the cost of the original
tin of shag

His First Thouqht.

entering a Turkish bath one night he
found stranger struggling in the
swimming pool. There was nobody
near, and the man was evidently I'M
able to swim, having jumped in prob
ably without ascertaining whether the
water would be above his head. The
athlete swan to the assistance Of the
struggling man. Grasping him by
the hair, he towed him to the side Of
the tank and assisted him to hang
on until he recovered his breath.
What were the first words uttered
by the rescued one? Did he stammer
out thanks to his human preserver?
No. The human mind is a curious af-
fair. AS the half drowned man strug
gled back to consciousness memories
of an old jest seemed to fit through
his brain, for he said:

BUILDING CASTLES IN AIR"
Proceeding That Seems Foolish, II Not
ReprehensibIe, 70 Some, May
Readily Be Explained.

Those who build castles in the air
are occasionally spoken OF by more
matter of-fact persons with brutal and
noisy derision, but oftener with kind
OF tender pity which they find, not I'M
justifiably, far more exasperating. 1t
implies so complete misunderstand-
ing of the builders frame Of mind.
They are supposed to live in vale OF
disappointments. but II they be out
and-out workmen with love OF their
art they do, In fact, nothing Of the
kind. Long before one castle has
actually fallen, sometimes even before
SO much as a telltale crack has ap
peared in the walls, they are planning
the foundations of another on larger
and more gorgeous scale. When tho
crash ultimately comes 1t Is unheard.
for the din of cranes and hammers al
ready are hard at work again We
have it on Sam Weller's authority that
to take to building houses is "a med
zeal term for being incurable.' And
very fortunately that is, fortiori,
btlll True vi Cdollco IL 10 ioet
however, this implication of a life
made up of establishments that is the
most difficult to bear. Rather it is the
suggestion that those who indulge in
day dreams are so besotted as to be-
lieve that they will all of them come
true This is at once slur on their
intelligence and on their ability to play
their own game properly; 1t shows
that the sympathetic and stupid crea-
lures who make it could never acquire
the rudiments of the game II they
were to try for thousand years. AS
long as the player is trammeled by
doubts and wonderings whether any
thing SO beautiful could ever really be-
fall him, he must almost of necessity
curb his fancy and turn sadly back
from some glorious flight; but once
he has as much as half admitted to
himself that he is moving in che realms
OF fantasy, he can soar away 10
heights unknown.
Putting altogether on one side the de-
light that they give IN the making, 1t
may we'll be a question whether any
material profit is to be derived from
castles in the air.

Infantry Decides the Battle.

While there have been many dis
cussions as to the relative value OF
the different branches OF an army
there is little doubt according to a
writer in the Scientific American
that 1t is the infantry that wins bat
ties
While it is probable the success of
on the support OF the field artillery, 1t
is certain that the principal and most
important arm is the infantry, which
in practically every case must decide
the final issue. The cavalry may be
the first to be drawn into battle,
and the artillery may destroy the en-
emy's artillery. but n battle is never
won until the infantry has driven back
the enemy's lines.
The usual mode Of advancing for
line with long interval between each
soldier. This, naturally, is for the
purpose of offering a smaller target
for the enemy but makes it more diff.
ficult, however, for the leaders to
keep as good control over the men,
and for that re~on one of the objects
of field artillery is to make the en-.
emy's troops deploy early.

ENGLAND'S FOREIGN SECRETARY

Sir Edward Grey, Bart, knight OF
the Garter, Liberal secretary of state
for foreign affairs since December,
1906, has been recently Great Brit,
aims most outstanding figure. He Is
the closest confidant of King George
V among all his present ministers and
is marked out as Englands next Lib
eral prime minister. He was the first
statesman within more than cen
fury without the rank of noble to
have received the highest decoration
the king of England has to bestow,
when King George conferred upon
him the noble Oroer of the Garter.
Indeed, in the many hundreds of years
that have elapsed since the order was
created, there has been only one other
occasion when member OF the house
of commons has been so honored,
when Sir Robert Walpole, prime min.
lister, received it.
Sir Edward Grey inherited his IT,
tie of baronet from his grandfather,
Sir George GREY, who was one of the
