Ram Too Much for rIuer.

It is fact that the tiger makes nc pretense to invincible courage. as may be seen in the instance Of one kept in the Calcutta Geological gardens, which was butted to death by raa. A sol dier owned a fighting ram, which be. came so troublesome 1t had to be sent to the ZOO.
 There 1t caused so much annoyance that it was decided to give it to the great tiger of the collection. The tiger was so ferocious that its food was let down through sliding grating in the roof of it's cage. The ram was lowered down. The tiger, dozing in one corner, saw the ram descend and, rising, began to stretch himself The ram, not knowing he was intended to be food for the big beast, supposed the stretching was the signal for a fight
 Stepping nimbly back to the farthest corner of the cage. 1t put down its head and went straight at the tiger, and in @ few minutes butted 1t to death.

FAMOUS FOR MANY CENTURIES
Jewel Known as kohInoor, In the 5ritlSh Dladem, Has Most Re-
 markable History.

The first owner of the famous Koh- moor or Mountain of Light dia- mond, was, according to legend, the hero Karna, whose deeds are cele- brated in the "Mahabharata," and who is said to have carried the great stone some 5000 years ago. The Koh- moor, brought to England from India and presented to Queen Victoria, made it's first authentic appearance in his tory in the fourteenth century, when Alaed-din carried it to Delhi. At that time 1t is said to have weighed 793 carats. It appeared in the great dia- mond market of Golconda in 1850. The lack of skill of Venetian lapidary, Hortensio Borghese, reduced it's weight to 279 carats. After the sack ing of Delhi in 1739 the diamond went to Afghanistan, and it belonged in turn to several Afghan rulers. Thence it came into the possession of the Sikh chief, Runfeet Singh. Upon the abdication of the last ruler of the Pun- Jab, and the annexation of his do- minions to the British empire, in 1S49, the great stone became the property of the East India company, and was by it presented to Queen Victoria. It was recut soon afterward, and now weighs 1O2H carats. It is beyond price, although $10,00O,00O has been given as a fair valuation.

Beauty of Character.

There is a sweetness of the child, and 8 sweetness of the old. The sweetness of the child is largely inde, pendent of his personality, 1t is in his ways and in his looks. and the same thing is true, though not quite so much. of the young woman. But when sweetness comes at sixty 1t Is the i'm. pression of the very nature of the soul. J. M. Barrie, somewhere, we believe, has said that no woman is really beautiful until she is ffty-three. The beauty that is worth most is the beauty that is connected with the character itself.

The Bath.

George c. Boldt. the doyen of the bookkeeping world, said in New York:
 Tt is now the excellent fashion and this fashion will be permanent to build hotels with a bath for every bedroom.
 T remember the time-of course, I was then very young-when baths were not so necessary. In fact, once overheard a little boy say to his father in hotel corridor:
 Pa, what are Knights of the Bath ?
 Why. Saturday nights, of course the father replied.
 Another time we put a rich old lady from the country-this, too, was ages ago-in our best room. a room with bath.
 The room clerk asked her in the morning how she had slept. She hid a yawn behind her hand and answered.:
 The bed was good, and I'd have slept fine, young man, only I was afraid somebody would be wanting a bath, and the idea of strangers passing back and forth through my room wor. ried me so I just couldn't snatch a wink"

A local contributor cites a fresh ex. ample of the fashion in which the youth of today trips the unwary par. ent:

 "Son, when was your age I never had hot water to shave with. Did it when the weather wasn't too bloom ing cold out in front of the woodshed and made lather out of any old soap I could find"
 But, father" expostulated the son. didn't you say you sent me to college that might have the advantages you didn't have?"

The new German attack on the
Warsaw front has led to some OF the
heaviest fighting of the war i'm the
East thus far. An official statement
from Petrograd to-day admits that
the Germans succeeded in carrying
Russian trenches in the region of
SoichZew and Bolinow, near the Wis
tula and about 80 miles west of War
saw, but states that the German Sue
cesses were of small importance COM
pared with the losses they sustained
which are described as enormous On
the front less than a mile long, more
than 5000 Germans are said to have
been killed i'm a week. The Russians
charged the captured trenches and
Petrograd reports that they succeeded
in winning back u large part of them.
The battle for possession of Carpa-
THAN passes continues without def
mite success for either the Russians
or the Austrians.

ENGLAND OBJECTS To
j. s. SENDING FOOD
SUPPLY To GERMANY
Great Britain Gives Notice Ships
viii Be Seized and That There
VIII Be No Compensation
By Associated Press

Washington. Feb. Great Britain
notified the United States to-day al
though not in official form. that food
stuffs of any kind destined for Ger
many. Austria and Turkey would be
regarded as contraband of war.
The action of the British Govern
ment is based upon the recent German
decree whereby that government will
take over all grain in Germany for
common use.
Because the steamer Wilhelmina
sailed from New York for Bremen be-
fore the issuance of the decree it is
understood that her cargo of food for
German WILLIAMS will be paid for and
appropriated by the British Govern
ment and the ship allowed to go free.
But. hereafter, food-laden ships
sailing from the United States directly
for German ports or for neutral ports
in Europe where it appears that the
cargo may ultimately reach Germany.
will be subject TO seizure outright. ship
and cargo. without compensation.
The State Department now is con-
sidering this latest announcement of
the British Government but so far has
not committed itself to it's approval.
