At Last!

There are few cyclists who, when
compelled to execute repairs to inner
tubes by the roadside, have not longed
for unpuncturable tires. This desid-
eratum now seems to have become an
accomplished fact in Sweden, where
the shortage of rubber has caused
great efforts to be made to find a sat
isfactory substitute for the pneumatic
tire. The new device consists of
thin strip Of hardened steel supported
on the rim by springs. the combination
being said to give results comparable
with those obtained by the use of rub
Der. Skidding is prevented by the
sharp edge of the steel tread, while
such tires are, Of course, quite I'M
puncturable. Whether the new device
will survive when rubber again be-
comes plentiful is perhaps doubtful,
but as a wartime measure it has
proved very useful.-From Chambers
Journal.

SOON WILL BE OF THE PAST
Georgia Wild Cows Seem to Have
Served Their Purpose, and Are
Fast Disappearing.

The piney woods cow. long chum
of the razorback hog, is fading from
the Georgia landscape. 1t is a poign-
ant thought. She is one of the last
links that binds Georgia to the past.
Thousands of her roamed over the
great plantations that would now be
condemned as undemocratic. She was
usually red and white-a "pided" COW
inclined to have poor figure, hump
backed and somewhat knockkneed and
her eyes were closely situated. in the
manner which psychologists shake
their heads over, because 1t indicates
the criminal bent But upon the .piney
woods cow Georgia in the old days
depended entirely for milk and but
ter. Many planters had hundreds of
them, but they all ran wild. and one
of the spring sports was to round
them up and mark them. If a choice
specimen should be captured, she was
hard TO feed, being unaccustomed to
civilized fodder, for piney woods cows
eat grass in summer and souse their
heads up to the eyes in ponds in the
winter, looking for water grass and
moss. They always have q forlOrn
air. Many of them still dwell on the
islands of Banks mill pond, which
covers thousands of acres, and butch
erS Of Valdosta hunt them with horses
and dogs.-New York Post.

They had never been trained, like
English mothers, to live through ordi-

heroism and nerve when the need

Thomas de Quincy, who knew how
to enjoy the good things of this world,
used to shut himself up for the win

then If he failed to get a winter of

Monkey as Labor Possibility.

The pig-tailed macaque or brok OF
the Malays is highly intelligent an
imal, and the Malays train them to
pick coconuts. The modus Operandi is
described by r. w. G. Shelford in "A
Naturalist in Borneo." A cord is fast
ened round the monkeys waist and it
is led to the coconut palm, which 1t
rapidly climbs. 1t then lays hold of a
nut, and If the owner judges the fruit
to be ripe for plucking he shouts to the
monkey, which then twists the nut
round and round till the stalk is bro
ken and lets it fall to che ground. If
the monkey catches hold of an unripe
fruit the owner tugs the cord and the
monkey tries another. have seen a
brok act as very efficient fruitpicker.
