Cat,s Power to Balance.

"Did you know that If you cut a
cats tail off she can't catch mice any
more?" asked young woman Of
another.
II don't see why replied the
other, "and further, can't imagine
what occasion you have had for cut
ting off cats tails to see."
II haven't cut off any cats tails,
but an accident deprived our cat Of
its caudal appendage. The feline be-
came as helpless as ship without q
rudder When it tried to spring upon
an object 1t would alight far to one
side. The look Of panied surprise on
the cats features was pathetic. After
q while 1t learned to 3ump straight
again, but 1t was long and painful
experience for. the poor cat The bal
ance of power and the power to bal
ance seem to lie in the tail of the
cat"

aAlDinef Plants In america.

The Alpine plant worth growing
in America are chiefly hardy peren-i
NAL herbs that make tufts or rosettes
or carpet the ground with contiau-
Gus sheet of flowers, says the Gar
den Magazine. Examples are the
famous gentians. pinks and prim-
roses Of Switzerland. These plants
are not confined to the European
Alps, but come FROM all high noun
tains and, therefore, IN horticultural
literature, the word ''alpine" has be-
come so generalised that 1t Is no
longer capitalized.
Unfortunately some Of the choicest
alpines can be grown only in spe-
cial rockery. where they can have
cool air, plenty of light, but without
shade, with constant moisture but
perfect drainage. Yet there are plen-
ty that can be grown in the ordinary
border which are able to Withstand
the alternate freezing and ta1awiug
of American winters.

Honesty TN Apples,

The Canadian government Is try
ing to prevent shortsighted Canadian
exporters from making the mistake
Of misrepresenting the fruit they
send to English markets. 1t is re-
ported that some wholesale dealers
In apples have falsely marked infer
Tor shipments Of fruit to England,
and that the practice OF facing up"
barrels and cases Of apples with fine
fruit, putting inferior apples In the
center of the barrels and then brand
ing them as first quality, has been
frequent. To check this the Cana
dian authorities have imposed heavy
fines In each case IN which conyic-
ton was procured. The American
exporters have lost markets by the
same shortsighted methods. and it
will be we'll If they profit by these
energetic methods taken by the
Canadian authorities. A market once
lost by misrepresentation is more
difficult to regain than to establish q
new market.

How Baboons Dispose Of the Aged

How Baboons Dispose OF the Aged.
''In certain parts of South Africa"
said Thomas Asbaldistone Of johann
nesburg, there are balloons which
carry into PRACTICAL operation the
doctrines of Dr. Osler. These simians
have no earthly use for the aged Of
their own tribes and when one of
their kind gets too old to help him
self the rest ostracize him complete
iy, neither tolerating his society nor
helping to sustain life.
Never was there an exhibition of
such caIlous and cold blooded indif-
ference as these 'babyans' show to
their helpless old. One Of our scien-
tiflc men who had made study OF
this phase of their life told me that
in this treatment of the aged by the
balloons the theory of Darwin was
vindicated, and that there need be no
further search of the missing
link"

One of the interesting sights Of
London is the ivory market where,
during the periodical sales, the floors
Of the great warehouses; are fairly
covered with t'-sks Of all sizes and
qualities.
There is absolutely no waste in
the manufacture Of articles from
ivory, for the small shaYings from
billiard balls are used in making in
laid work. Therefore at an ivory sale
not only whole tusks are disposed of,
but various assortments Of different
sized pieces. The waste product of
one manufacture may be Of the
greatest value to another. The most
valuable ivory Is used for making
billiard balls, and to be perfect
tusk must be absolutely sound and
solid, without suspicion of flaw
or crack, and must measure only a
