Henry James Learns a Lesson.

-Four barrels Of whiskey, which the
police said Henry James, international
Falls, had bought in st. Paul for
$4,000, contained only quart Of liquor
in each. James came to the twin cities
with $4,000, the police said and drew
enough liquor to make test. II was
"102 proof"
"1'm perfectly satisfied" James re-
marked, handing over $4,000.
He had the barrels stored in St.
Paul warehouse. With friends James
decided to tap the barrels. The bung
was started and the liquor dubbed
forth. After q quart had been drawn
off the foo suddenly ceased.
Investigation proved that quart
container was attached to the bung
and that the rest Of the barrel was
filled with water. s 5.95

Irish Saints Loved Animals

Irish Saints Loved Animals.
DIR. Douglas Hyde recently delivered
a series Of lectures the Margaret
Stokes lectures in the Alexandra
college, Dublin, dealing with medieval
Irish lore. He told anecdotes about
the Irish saints and their love Of birds
and beasts. He traced the love Of
animals by people in different periods
and in different countries. Even the
Irish pagans had their pet animals.
He took the three Irish saints, St.
Patrick, St. Brigid and st. Columcille
and spoke Of their affection for their
pet animals. st. Patrick's kindness
to the fawn was we'll authenticated,
and the fawn returned the love to
his master.
st. Brigid had her pet dog, a most
faithful animal. She also loved birds,
especially domestic fowls, and they
loved her in remarkable manner.
The crane was St. Columcille's pet,
although his love for all dumb animals
surpassed that of other saints. It was
recorded in the life of the saint that
dumb animals, too, were in love with
him, especially birds, and that some Of
the latter followed him from Ireland
to the island of Iona. There was, in
proof Of the love of animals for the
saint, the story of how the horse
wept on the bosom Of the saint the
night before he died.
DR.. Hyde mentioned a large number
Of other saints, Irish and Latin, about
whom he told stories, showing their
love for animals, making special ref
erence to st. Kelvin, st. Comgall, St.
Molina, St. Moling, who had made
friends of wolves, foxes, cartridges,
and herons.- Dumb Animals.

Interstate Trunk Highways.

The federal government has quar-
ter of a million dollars to put into
state highway systems within the
next three years. 1t would be directly
contrary to the spirit of this appro-
priation if several states should ex-
pend this money in building up state
markets with state highways regard
less of interstate connections. For the
greatest good of the country at large
the highway system should be laid out
so that traffic can follow natural ways
to market.
A most effective movement, fore
stalling any such misapplication Of
federal road funds is seen in the lay
ing out of through motor trails, named,
blazed and organized. While those
routes have been mapped primarily
for tourists they are just as suitable
for freight routes. When developed
they will offer trunks to which may
be joined local branch systems, and SO
finally form system that will carry
freight to market on the shortest
lines. In planning these routes fore
sight and impartiality are needed, fol
the new highway system to be laid
! out in the next five years will be fin
ished in such durable material as to
stay where it is put for many genera
tons.
Federal, state and county funds now
in view for use during the next three
years aggregate about billion dol.
liars. And to this will be added, if the
Townsend bill is passed, four hundred
and twenty-five million more within
five years for construction Of a dis.
tinctively federal system of roads tt
link up with every state system

Thus the church has nearly tho
not quite reached the goal of the

contribute to city and rural problems
as well as educational moves in this
country and foreign mission work in
general, while about one-fourth will be
used for War Reconstruction Prob
