Frog Barks Like a Dog

A horned Brazilian frog which banks
like dog when it loses its temper,

The strange frog is FIVE and half
inches long and green-bronze in coll
or. The keepers were warned that
- animal was dangerous, but they
were finciine6 70 disregard THIS

saw it aroused. Apparently averse

Pig or Dog Price of
Mate for Young Papuan

When Papuan tribesman's eyes

sires her for wife, he first presents
his father-in-law with pig or dog,
after which he takes his bride to his
hut. The wedding ceremony over, the
bride joins other wives in taking care

toes, birds, lizards. fish and all kinds
of insects are eaten by them, but the
favorite tid-bit is a fat grub about
three inches long. Papuans differ az
to the disposal Of their dead. They
believe that each tribesman has two
spirits. One dies with the body while
the other remains with 1t to haunt
the relatives. Sometimes a body is
buried for a short time. Later 1t is

Solitary Meals Chief n
Cause of Indigestion

Unmarried men and women between
the ages of thirty and fifty suffer
more from dyspepsia than the married
folk Of similar age.
This discovery has followed Ber-
lin physicians laborious Investigation
OF cases Of stomach trouble. 1t Is one
that cheers the heart Of the young
wife, whose culinary efforts are often
made the subject of mirth. Her hus-
band, for all her novice cooking, will
be more likely to have good diges-
ton than his unmarried friends.
Bachelors eat alone, and consequently
eat too fast, owing to the fact that
they have no one to talk to.
The unmarried woman, says the pro.
fessor, usually eats the wrong things.
She will eat only what can be pre-
pared with the least trouble, or what
can be eaten unprepared. She, too,
like the bachelor, is apt to bolt her
meals. The solitary person, in fact.
male or female, just eats because he
or she must, and gets 1t out Of the
way as quickly as possible. Hence
indigestion and a bad temper. The
married have with their food the best

British Postal System
Has Manv Conveniences

The British post office officials are
capable and obliging and If anyone
should lose himself, he can go to the
nearest post office and mail himself
home. An express messenger Is some
times given charge of a person and
takes him to his destination, where he
obtains receipt. The charges, based
upon the distance Travelled, are quite
moderate. If you merely wish to prove
that letter has been posted, there
Is no need to register It. The post office
will supply you with a certificate Of
posting" for a cent. If you miss the
last collection of letters and have
an urgent communication to send, ring
up the head post office of the district,
tell them your plight, and dictate the
letter. It will be written out and sent
off with the night mail. The charge is
six cents for the first thirty words,
two cents for every ten afterward, and
the ordinary postage and telephone
fee. ..,i

How "Teddy Bears" Got
Their Well-Known Name

About 1883 Marguerite Steiff, Grip
pied dressmaker living in a little vii
lage in Germany, used some leftover
material to make a toy bear for a
child. The bear was popular and
other children in the community i'm
mediately wanted rag bears. Marga-
rete's brother, Richard Steiff, later
saw the commercial possibilities of
these toys and put them on the mar
ket. George Borgfeldt & Co. of
New York imported some in 1902. AT
that time, Of course, they were not
called teddy bears and nobody thought
Of associating them with Roosevelt. 1t
so happened, however, that President
Roosevelt went on a hunting trip to
Mississippi that same fall. The pub
lie was amused when a news dispatch
stated that "Teddy" had refused to
shoot small bear brought into camp
for him to kill. This inspired Clifford
Z. Bergman, the cartoonist, to draw
a cartoon picturing Colonel Roosevelt
in his hunting outfit with his back to
a man who is dragging in a small cub
with rope around its neck. Roose-
welt, with his gun in his right hand,
has his left hand raised after the FASH
ion of traffic cop to indicate his OBJ.
lection to the procedure. The cartoon
is labeled drawing the Line in Mis-
sissippi." 1t was popular hit and Ber-
ryman adopted the bear as his cartoon

World Roll. On

When I was a young fellow, pre-
dicted rather frequently that the world
was going to the devil; and the world
hasn't gone to the devil yet I
believe everyone may confidently plod
along with the comforting certainty
that the stars will not break loose and
smash this little old world into dust.
The world takes good care of itself /;
If you take as good care of yourself
as the world does, you'll be voted a
wonder. Every little while a human
skull is found thousands Of years old.
No doubt the skull was formerly worn
by a man who worried constantly
about the world going to the devil

Sheepherder Yarn Has J
No Foundation in Fact

There Is an ever-recurrent story that
the laws in certain states compel a
sheepman to keep two men with the
sheep all the time, one to herd them
and the other to keep the herder from
going crazy.
What would happen If the ovine irl-
fluence should upset the mental equi-
librium Of both of them at the same
time is a matter for conjecture. Speak
ing merely for myself, the sight Of
someone watching me from day to
day for signs Of incipient madness
would be the surest and quickest way
to call to life the germs Of that dis.
ease which is supposed to lie latent
in the herder's calling.
And If, in addition, had to do all
the work, while the other fellow con-
fined his labors to his optic nerve,
there would inevitably steal into my
consciousness the thought that insan-
ity is valid as well as popular ex.
cuse for several major crimes.-Arch-
er B. Gilfllan in the Atlantic Monthly.

DAYS of Slow Travel

Travelling certainly had its draw.
backs 1875 years ago. person desir-
ing to 60 from New York city to Buff
falo must first wait for several days
until sailing vessel left for Albany.
The trip required from two to five
days, depending on conditions. At AL
bany the passenger took stage coach
and rode overland to Schenectady, II
miles. where he could get an occasional
boat on the Mohawk river. The trip
required another week, sometimes
more. From Utica to Oswego it was
possible to get boat for Lewiston,
from where the rest of the journey
was by stage. The whole journey, with
good connections, required about a
month. IL
