nearly accurate is possible to make them but because
larger number of minor prisons failed report in 1917 than in

GIRAFFE USES HEAD
 TO FIGHT ITS FOES
Creature Swings Neck Like Flail and Brings It Down With a Trump
 on Antagonist.

New York Nov, s.---The giraffe has neither claws nor sharp teeth withwhich to defend itself or to at- tack it's enemies, so when it is out of temper with one Of its own kind it does not attempt to disembowel its adversary as rhineroceros might, or tear it as tiger would.
 But nature has given it long and pliable neck which terminates in a very solid head, and it uses the up- per part of itself like fail, swing ing its neck round and round and bringing its head down at each swing with thump on it's antagonist.
 The other combatant uses pre- cisely the same tactics, and the two animals, planting themselves as firm ly as possible by stretching out all four legs to the utmost, stand oppo- site each other and hammer away with their heads until one or the oth- CT has had enough.

ENCOURAGE REMARRLAGE.
Japanese Authorities Favor the Idea That Widows Should Wed Again.

Tokio, Nov. 4. - The traditional Japanese idea is that the real merit of chastity consists in the devotion of spirit and body to the husband in this as well as in the other world. This accounts for the number of widows in Tokio alone increasing annually instead of decreasing, according to the police authorities. Of the 110,- GOO widows of Tokio, 413 are below 20 years old, 7,500 below 30, and 2S,a6S below 40. Some of these are frequently victimized and the author ities think it well to encourage wid- ows of Japan to remarry.
