Lizard SquIrts Blood From Eyes.

We have about fourteen species Of
horned lizards In this country, and
most people still call them horned
toads." Some of their habits are ex-
tremely remarkable, but none more
80 than their ability to send at will
q fine jet of blood from either eye.
This fact is very rarely touched upon
in literature, and the average reader
of the life histories of our animals has
never heard of this remarkable habit,
says a writer in Popular Science
Monthly, In an article entitled. "A
Lizard That Squirts Jets of Blood
From Its Eyes" BlOod-squirting Is
generally INDUCED in when the lizard
is labOring under certain states of ex-
element. The attack comes on sud-
denly, at a time when you have the
lizard in your grasp. 1t will suddenly
stiffen its neck and throw the head
upward, as the eyes bulge from their
sockets. In another second you can
plainly hear a peculiar kissing sound,
followed Immediately by the finest i'm
aginable jet of pure blood from one
or the other of its eyes. With such
force is this squirted that the tiny
stream, lasting a couple of seconds,
may be thrown to a distance of fully
five feet.

PoIitcness.

The popularity which is worth while
Is that which comes from a sincere
attitude toward all the world. This
sincerity should not show itself in a
critical frankness. 1t should. rather,
take into consideration the feelings Of
others. AS to the question of polite
ness to those above us and those be-
meath us, it would seem really more
necessary to give our best to those
who have the least.-Exchange.

Endurance THROUGH Faith.

Human beings have endured uncon-

grief, has detected behind whatever

The response of the farmers, says
Mr.. Wilson. to the demands OF the
present emergency has been in ev.

figures in proof OF the assertion.
These achievements, he urges. should

The President denies that the

to fix other prices which determine
the expenses of the farmer, stating
that the Government has successful

THE PRESIDENT
TO THE FARMERS

President Wilson in his message to
the farmers of the United States. of
January 81. voices q strong faith In
their loyalty and makes q strong call
for their cooperation in winning the
war.
It has been the fashion Of many
writer's to compare the production
per acre Of European farmers with
that Of American farmers to the det-
riment Of the American. The Presi-
dent. however. makes the assertion
that the farmers Of this country are
a. efficient ~ any other farmers in
the world. and that while they do not
produce more per acre. It Is not
only not necessary that they should
do so, but perhaps It would be bad
economy for them to attempt 1t. The
real test Is that they do produce ~
two or three times more per man
per unit OF labor and capital than
the farmers of any European coun-
try; they are more alert and use
more labor saving devices than any
