One way to offset this is to apply a coat of thin cement each season, sting it on with a brush. This requires ittle labor and time. = We raised a nice flock of Pekin ducks last year.

Panels of white stripes of alternating and floral designs are now used, sur- ed by borders of the same flowers on the stripes. They are cat out on edges, so that the separate roses, for in- stance, project over the Jose. Then there are panels of more im sive character, intended to be in drawing or dining rooms. In a small room effects of this kind may be created without a great expenditure of money.

In short, the Sardes are the Malays of the Mediterranean.” —London Chronicle. A Leopard Collar, “A leopard collar,” he said, taking up a dog collar studded with sharp spikes three inches long. Fitting the collar on his dog, he resumed: “This piece of armor—for that is what it is—illus- trates an oddity of the Himalayas— namely, the fondness of the Hima- layan leopard for dog flesh. In the Himalayas last year I found that all dogs wore these murderous looking spiked collars, The explanation was that the Himalayan leopards conducted an unceasing dog hunt, and that in at- tacking a dog they always fell upon his neck., This collar with its sharp spikes is a great protection. It has saved many a dog from a hungry leopard. Often in the Himalayas a dog comes trotting home safe and sound, though with smears of blood and yellow hairs upon his collar spikes.” Names and the Law. Speaking generally, the law of Eng- land allows a person to assume and use any name, provided its use is not calculated to decelve or inflict pecuni- ary loss. So the court of appeals laid down the law in Dockrell against Dou- gall, and this attitude of the law, the Law Journal remarks, is characteristic of our British love of liberty. French law is much more strict. It forbids any citizen to bear any name other than that which Is expressed in the registry of his birth or to add any surname to his proper name. German law is the same, only it goes a little further in imposing a penalty on any one giving a false name to an official.—Dundee Advertiser.
