INCIDENT POINTS A MORAL
Happening of the Middle Ages Which
Should Give Food for
Thought Today.

Because they chatter a great deal,
the people of ancient days said that
magples were women changed into
birds That was not very gallant
thing to say, but magpies do not live
In Canada, and there could have been
no reflection ON our ladies'. They are
pretty white and black birds, shaped
like crow, and about half MS big.
They are fond Of pretty things, and
sometimes pick up articles they fancy
to beautify their homes. In Florence,
Italy, there Is lofty monument on
top of which stands, or did stand, a
statue of Justice with pair of scales
In her hand. Once the Duke Cosm0
lost pearl necklace which an unfor-
tunate little girl YVES accused of steal
ing They put her to torture and
racked her poor little limbs almost to
pieces, until, unable to bear the pain,
she said she would plead guilty to
anything. Then she was hanged. That
day terrible storm visited Florence.
The lightning struck the scales in the
monument and down fell magpies'
nest with the pearls In it If you ever
visit Italy, be sure you look for Stazzi
monument with its broken scales, and
remember ii is very wise to be SLOW
to Judge" e."-Montrea Family Herald.

DANCES TO ENTlcE HIS MATE
In the Spider World the Male Of the
Species Must Be a Master
OF jazz"

There is a certain little spider, we
are told by G.. G. Clark in his Tiny
Toilers and Their Work." who has to
exhibit his proficiency as master of
jazz in order to charm the creature
with whom he would mate. If he is a
bad dancer he goes minated. He Is
called the zebra spider because of
white stripes that run along his black
abdomen.
In setting forth upon a matrimonial
quest the zebra spider does not anoint
himself with the special perfume which
some insects use in like circumstances
nor does he, as the cricket Is supposed
to do, rely upon his ability as a maker
of music; he simply appears before
the object of his desire and begins to
dance--hrst a jazz and then waltz,
alternating them, 1t would seem, with
the idea that one or the other must
captivate Miss Spider, who sits and
watches him critically with all her
eight eyes
She frequently 1t is said is hard to
please, and a male zebra has been
known to repeat his jazz and waltz
as many as III times for the entertain
ment of an obdurate insect with which
1t would mate. However, few court
ships" are as long as this the wooed
one usually making up her mind after
a few minutes Of his dancing. If her
decision be favorable, she soon Joins
the suppllcant in mad whirling waltz.
IF, on the other hand she Is no,
charmed she either turns away in con-
tempt, or savagely rushes upon him
with intent to murder.

IN THE LAND OF ROMANCE
Commonplace Couple Only Joking
When They Compared Their Diff

They were sitting in the half-dark-

Then he had his say:
"Ain't she wonderful queen? I?
That's the sort | like-the tall, stately
woman that can look you over like "a
worm and go trailing them silk robes
round and granting her fayors with "a
cold. proud smile upon her beautiful
lips"
Really, Jack!

And they held each others hands
little tighter, and the screen lost its
interest for at least two more in. the
crowded picture house.

THEN SHE AROSE SUDDENLY
Elderly Lady Discovered She Had
Made Wrong Choice of Her
Resting Position.


1t is hard sometimes for the old and
the young to arrive at common point
of understanding. The old lady ana
the Sunday school boy in this story
did finally arrive at an understanding
but not until the boy had suffered
damage to his feelings, if not to his
possessions.
A picnic was in progress and the
Benevolent and elderly lady took much
enjoyment in witnessing the delight of
the children who were disporting them
selves in her grounds.
She went from one to another, say

plot beside Dicl1ie, little boy with

asked, anXiously.

Increasing Worlds Food Supply.

Col. K. ]. Stordy who was chief
veterinary surgeon of the British
armies during the war; has taken to
the pastoral life now--but ON very
large scale. He is raising sheep and
cattle on the high pampas of south
ern Peru. under the aegis of the
Peruvian government and the Peruvi-
an corporation. His experimental and
survey work he finds absorbing, and
he expresses the opinion that some day
this region will become one of the
richest grazing territories in the world
through expert breeding of the coun-
try's valuable native wool-bearing ami
mails, the vicuna and guanacO.

CARPENTER TURNS
DOWN GREB MATCH
Descamps Tells Rickard That
Georges Has Signed for
Bouts in Europe.

NEW YORK, June 1o.-Georges
Carpenter will not box Harry
Greb nor Jack Dempsey in this
country this year. It is practically
certain. Francois Descamps. Car
pentier's manager, this morning
sent a cable to Tex Rickard In
which he declined, in behalf Of
Carpenter. "a handsome offer"
made by Rickard. for a Carpenter
Greb fight in Boyle's Thirty Acres
this summer.
In turning down the offer, Des-
camps indicated that Carpenter
would not be able TO fill any en-
gagement in America this year.
Descamps says Georges is signed
for a bout in Paris In September
and for another in London in Oc-
tober. This would practically
eliminate any chance of the
Frenchman appearing this year.
Rickard cabled Descamps an
offer shortly after Greb defeated
Turney for the American light
heavyweight title. On last Mon
day, having received no reply to
his previous message, Rickard
again cabled the French cham
pion's manager, and this morning
received the following cablegram
in reply:
Thanks for handsome offer, bu,
II comes too late. Have already
signed Georges for bout with Mills
In Paris In September and with
Beckett in London in October"
