ON HER ANNUAL RAMPAGE
One Day of the Whole Year When
Hard Worker of the Family
Stops Work.

A meek little woman lives near At
Gibson. She does her duty by her
family 364 days out of the year, but
on the other day she goes on the RAM
page. Instead Of getting up at $50
in the morning, hurrying into her
clothes, getting breakfast, doing the
dishes, cleaning up the house, feed
ing the chickens, skimming the
cream, putting away the milk, get
ting supper, doing the dishes, put
ting away the milk, sewing and 60
ing to bed she goes on a strike and
begins by staying in bed until some
one in the family gets breakfast on
the table, says the Atchison Globe.
Then, dressed and ready to go down
town, she appears and says, evidently
to her man folks: 81 would like a
horse and buggy today
The man folks do not sa. a word
they know mamma is going on the
rampage. They hitch up the family
driving horse to the shiniest buggy
on the place, and mamma" walks
out of the house, in a dignified way
climbs into the buggy, and, sitting as
straight as an arrow, says, "Get up,
Prince!" to the horse and drives off.
That's the last the family sees Of
her until after dark, when she comes
driving back, steps down from the
buggy and goes into the house and
visits with the family until bedtime

ITS FISH, SNAKE OR A LIZARD

Breathes Through Its GiIlso
Bicknell, Ind-A strange cceature.
presenting anatomical characteristics
which might be attributed to fish
snake or lizard, has been placed on
exhibition in a business house here
No one has found a name that seems
to fit the animal, or reptile, which
was caught by Grant Hooper and Carl
York, fishermen.
The body Of the creature Is twelve
inches long, and in shape resembles
the old-fashioned four-cornered dart
kite. The head, in form, is like It
snakes, but the resemblance ENDS
there, for four sharp tusks protrude
from the mouth. Apparently the crea
ture breathes through gills similar to
those of q fish. The horns and ears
which follow closely the form Of the
human ear, give a peculiar appearance
to the head. The skin or hide is BLACK
and white in, color.

Curious hlmsl1ouse,

The most curious alnshouse is Eng
land is st. Mary's Hospital as Chich-
ester. There eight old ladies live ac-
tually in the church. which is fine
Old building, dating from 1880 1t was
originally a monastery, but when
Queen Elizabeth came to visit there
she turned it into an almshouse, to
endure as long as almshouses exist.
The old ladies have two neat little
rooms each down the sides Of the
main church, with windows looking
out on the garden. They have each
, coal supply, kitchen range, water
and gas. At one end of the church
is the chapel, where daily services are
held The choir stalls are beauti-
fully carved old oak, the original
seats that the monks used. The church
stands in quiet little square.-Ex-
change.

MANY FAST rRoTTERs ARE GONE
Thirty-eight Died in 1914, Including
Some Famous Ones.


Washington, C. H., Ohio.-Were it
not for the fact that there are lots of
others just as good or a little better
coming on right along, the loss by
death of 3S trotters with marks better
than 2:17, and 46 PAGERS with records
Of 2:15 or better during the year 1914,
would appear as startling loss to
light harness racing OF course all
good race horses must Gle sooner or
later, but had such a thing as this
occurred a few years ago in single
year it would have meant much more
to the racing game than it does today
The fastest trotter in the 1914 death
list is Colorado e., (2:G5%), and the
foremost PAGER was Sir r (2:031a).
In the list are many great race horses,
one of the most famous and popular
of which was Effie Powers (2:0S 1-8).
A lot of fellows would go into the
business Of driving race horses if they
were convinced that they could pro
duce as great a record as Ed Geers
has In the last 25 years-from 1890
to 1915-this veteran driver has won
$1,17S,452 in races, his greatest harvest
being in 1902, when he raked in $116,-
$40 Last season he had to be salts
fed with only $45,3S5. There are
very few Ed Geers.

Newton, N. C.-After carrying a bull

Catawaba County, N. c., has sneezed
from his nose a leaden pellet common

to be troubled many years by what
