AN ANIMAL IN PAIN.
Il Suffers Less Than Man on Account
Of Its Low intelligence.

Il Suffers Less Than Man on Account
Of Its Low intelligence.
1t is a platitude that pain is as one
feels it," But that statement falls
considerabl way short of the truth.
The measure of pain undoubtedly de-
pends as much upon realization. COM
parison and constructive memory as
upon sensation. In other words, the
individual with the most highly devel-
oped imagination enjoys and suffers
most intensely, though not perhaps
most violently. Pain and death are
terrible in proportion as one is capable
of relating them TO experience. To
children they are not terrible in this
sense. because children have small
experience and even smaller powers
OF imagining relations.
In the case of animals the power OF
constructing memory picture and re-
lating the same to present conditions
is probably exceedingly low, II not en-
tirely absent Pain to an animal rep
resents an unpleasant experience
begun and ended sharply. 1t Is I'M
related. II has no social or moral sig
nificance II is not terrible in the wide
sense. An animal lives from moment
TO moment At any given moment its
happiness is a question in the main of
physical comfort. The Gagged skylark
Though il must not be supposed that
this is any defense of an Objectionable
practice) experiences none Of the
misery Of the Gagged man. II does not
know that its liberty is hopelessly lost.
II cannot relate Its present position
to past experience in the way in which
n prisoner can and must do. The cage
is merely an accidental obstruction
which may at any moment disappear.
Should the bird stop struggling 1t does
SO because struggling is unpleasant.
not because il is hopeless.

A HISTORIC BELL.
From the Guerriere to the Constitution,
Then to a Mill.

From the Guerriere to the Constitution,
Then to Mill.
One would hardly expect to find an
object of historic interest in so pro-
sale place as New England mill
an object Older than the Oldest title of
the English peerage. an object made
before the English parliament was
formed Yet such an object is in daily
use in factory at Saylesville, II. |. 1t
is a bell, whose history is Il most in
teresting one. Around the bell. about
four inches from the crown, is this SUI
prescription: Peter Secest Amsterdam,
Ammo 1868, me fecit."
The date. together with other well
authenticated facts. leads to the belief
that the bell was long used in a con
vent belfry in England and was taken
therefrom for public use during the
reformation But the connecting link
between its life in the old world and
its advent TO America is the famous
naval battle between the Guerriere
and the Constitution.
The Guerrierc, helpless wreck, was
rolling in the trough Of the sea, while
her brave but defeated commander,
| Captain Dacres of the royal navy. on
| the deck of the American frigate, the
Constitution. was Offering his sword to
gallant Captain Hull.
The two officers had been friends in
time Of peace. having often exchanged
hospitalities at the Mediterranean
ports. and now Hull's magnanimty
shone out.
'1'll not take your sword. Dacres,"
said he. Keep it,"
In the meanwhile the boats Of the
Constitution were busiy engaged in
Transporting the crew of the defeated
ship TO the deck of the victor. A mid
shipman reported to the first lleuten-
ant that the ships bell had been car
ried away by a grapeshot from the
Guerriere and that there was no way
of announcing the time to the ships
company.
At that moment the Guerriere gave q
succession of heavy plunges, and the
clear tones of fine bell rang over the
water.
"Go get the Englishman's bell" said
the lieutenant TO the midshipman
There will be no further use for 1t OF
board that craft"
The Guerriere surrendered at
o'clock in the evening of Aug. 10, 1912
and at o'clock the same evening Pc
ter Secest's bell in sonorous tones RAM
out the hour on board "Old Ironsides.
With the lapse of time the bell. amit
the confusion and debris common TO {
great navy yard. became misplaced
: lost its identity and was thrust care
lessly TO one side. 1t found its way +

Russell Automatic Gas machine. which
is intended to supply gas in rural
homes and even in city homes and in
business houses, if the owners SO de-
sire. 1t is adapted especially to sup
ply cheap gas in the homes not reach

any home may be furnished with gas
at a nominal expense, with only nomi-
nal cost for maintenance, according
to the tests made by the inventor
and by the company.
The gas is made from gasoline and
is absolutely automatic with the ok
ception that a weight which furnishes
the motive power must be wound up
at intervals. The turning of the gas
automatically starts the machine and
turning it off stops it. The gasoline
tank Is kept outside of the building
in which the plant is used, buried
underground so that there is abso-
lutely no danger from an explosion.
