Americas Appalling Fire Loss.

Every man, woman and child in the
United States pays So a year for fire
waste. If on a certain day of the year
a government official should go to the
average family of five persons and pre-
sent bill for $15 as the annual fire
tax Of the family, there would be a
universal protest against the tax and
against the careleSSness which makes
possible yearly fire waste Of $780,
100000 in this country. Big manufac-
turers and big merchants know that
the fire expense to which they are SUBJ
jected is drain on all the people, but
because 1t is indirect the average per-
son is not conscious he is paying tax.
Let the masses once realize that every
time they buy hat, a pair of shoes
or suit of clothes or anything which
goes through the regular channels of
industry, production, distribution and
exchange, they are paying a part of
the country's enormous fire tax, and
fire prevention would become the order
of the day.-Leslie

Objections to Seriousness.

If everybody were able to see clear
ly, think straight and reach sound con-
clusions there could be no objection
to seriousness except its mortar mo-
notonousness. But, inasmuch as about
90 per cent of what serious people
think and know and say is incorrect,
the evil effect upon the social body Is
tremendous. 1t may be, probably is,
equally true that 90 per cent Of what
nonserious people think and know and
say is incorrect, but as nobody takes
them seriously, no harm Is done to the
community, and these nonserious ones
have at least added to the sum tota
of enjoyment. The people who take
themselves seriously ought to be care
fully selected by law and their mum
Der rigidly limited.-Life.

Browninq,s Peculiar Eyes.

Brovnings eyes were peculiar, one
having a long focus, the other very
short. He had the unusual accom-
plishment Gry it and prove) Of closing
either eye without "Squfnchfng' and
without any apparent effort, though
sometimes on the street in strong sun
shine his face would be n bit distorted.
He did all his reading and writing
with one eye, closing the long one as
he sat down at his desk. He never
wore glasses and was proud of his
microscopic eye. He often wrote mi
nutely to show off his powers. When
he left the house to go for a walk he
shut the short eye and opened the long
one, with which he could see an i'm
mense distance. He never suffered
with any pain in his eyes except once,
when as boy he was trying to be a
vegetarian in imitation of his youth

The Duck.

A little schoolgirl in Michigan has
written the following essay on the
duck:
"The duck is low heavy set bird.
He is q mighty poor singer having Il
coarse voice caused by getting so many
frogs In his neck and he likes the wa
ter and carries Il toy balloon in his
stomach to keep from sinking the Duck
has only two legs and they are set SO
far back on his running gears by ma
ture that they come pretty near miss
ing his body some ducks when they
get big curls on their tails are called
brakes and don't have to set or hatch
but just loaf and go swimming and
eat everything in sight if l were to be
a duck l would rather be drake they
have a wide bill like they use it for a
spade they walk like a drunk man they
bounce and bump about from side to
side if you scare them they will flap
their wings and try to make a pass at
singing. .'-DetrOit Journal.

The Spittino Snake.

A snake found in Africa is called the
splitting snake by the Beers. 1t is be-
tween two and three feet long and is
especially bold and active, readily at
tacking every one who approaches 1t.
In confinement it is very savage, open
ing its mouth and ejecting its fangs,
from which the poison may be often
observed to drop and even sometimes
to be forcibly elected, whence the
name given it by the Beers.

UNABLE To PASS
PHYSICAL TEST
Great Number of Reflections
Reduces Ranks of Arkan.
sas Militia.

Little Rock, July 12.-The physical
examination Of the troops Of the Ar
kansas national guard is deciminat-
ing their numbers most rapidly, and
many of the companies have been re-
duced to less than their peace
strength of 65 men, Some have been
cut down to as low as 43 men. The
percentage of reflections is averaging
about one-third. Officers and men
alike are feeling the effects of most
rigid examination.
The appointments to fill vacancies
caused by the rejection of commits
stoned officers will probably be an
nounced by Governor Hays tomorrow
afternoon. There is very large
number of these places to fill, and
great pressure is being brought TO
bear in the interest of various appli-
cants Efforts are being made also
to secure waivers on some of the Of
ficers who have been turned down for
physical defects.
1t is rumored that Maj w. C. Brad
ford, the assistant adjutant general of
the guard, will be given an appoint
ment as major of the First battalion,
Second regiment, in place of Leon R..
Smith who was rejected because OF
his light weight. 1t is reported also
that Harry Stewart the governors
former private secretary, will be
given a captaincy on the staff of the
Second regiment.

anxious to see more Of the country,
so obtained a berth as sailor on a
vessel plying between New York and
the East Indies, and that was the last
heard of him.
He has been in practically every
port in the world, and on one occa-
sion was wrecked in midocean, and he
and the captain fhis vessel were
