Domeatlc Animals Urine Infection.
Evidence that colds are infectious is
furnished by what we observe among
our domestio animals. Cats seem to
be especially susceptible. Probably
they often bring home from their noo-
tarnal rambles those mysterious ca
tarrhal attacks which so rapidly run
through the house. It is an old ray
ing "The cat is sneezing, we shall all
Lave colds." Sheep, too, are liable; a
whole flock may suffer, and may show
that curious eruption round the lips,
which we all know only too well as
oue of the most unpleasant accompan
iments of a bad cold in the head. On
the AuBtraliau sheep runs, when the
shearing season comes round, the
men who congregate at the Bheds are
frequently smitten with an illness of
a catarrhal nature, which rapidly takes
hold of them, and often affects some
ninety per oent. Sometimes it be
comes very serious, aud may even de
velop into a fatal pneumonia. To all
appearance it is caught from the sheep.

Remarkable War Widow.
One of the curiosities or the United
States pension service is the astonish
inp; survival of war widows. The re
port of the United States Commis
sioner of Pensions shows some re
mnrkable and interesting facts in re
gard to the longevity of the widows of
soldiers. For instance, while there it
not a single soldier of the War of the
Eevolution alive to-day, there are,
still surviving and drawing pensions
twelve widows and daughters of sol
diers of the Revolution. Of the Wat
of 1812 there are only three soldiers
still alive, but of their widows there
are now surviving and drawing pen
sions the astonishing nn tuber of 2407.
The War of the Revolution closed
in 1783 and a period of 115 years has
elapsed, and, while there are no male
survivors, there are still some of theii
widows alive. This state of affairs can
only be possible on the ground that
some of the soldiers, after they had
attained old age, married young wives.
The War of 1812-14 closed with the
battle of New Orleans, on January 8,
1815, eighty-three years ago. Sup
posing that the youngest soldier were
eighteen years old, a period of 101
years has elapsed since the birth of
suoh soldiers. - Evidently many oi
them, after they were old, married
young women, so that, although all
the men but three are dead, they have
left behind more than 2000 widows.
By the same rule of procedure it is
plain there will be widows of soldiers
of the Civil War on the pension rolls
in 1980, and even a few in the year
A. D. 2000, more than a century
hence, for if a soldier'eighteen years
old in 18G1 should marry when he
had reached the age of eighty years,
in 1923, a girl sixteen years old, she
might hope to live seventy-seven
years longer, or to the age of ninety
three, which would bring her np to
the year 2000. New Orleans Pica

A Twelve-Inch Wire-Wound Gun.
Our American cousins are not, onr
riymonth correspondent says, appar
ently to enjoy a monopoly iu the
manufacture of man-killing weapons.
Although it has been known for many
months that the British Admiralty
have introduced for tho navy a new
type of 12-inch brecch-loading gun,
few are aware of the enormous advan
tages the new weapon can claim over
existing ordnance of the same calibre.
The new gun, which is to be known
as the "Mark 8," is constructed of
steel on tho wire-wound principle, so
that the liability tofractnre is reduced
to a minimum. Cordite charges only
will be need, and a lenthy series of
experiments have shown that a charge
of lfu pounds of cordite is sufficient
to fire a projectile 850 pounds in
weight a distance of ten thousand
yards, whereas the existing 12-inch
gnns need a charge of 250 pounds of
powder to fire a projectile weighing
714 pounds the same distance.
The new gun has also a greater de
structive capacity, it having been
found that its projectile will ponetrnte
21.1 inches of wrought iron at a dis
tance of seventeen hundred yards,
while the penetrating power of the 12
inch gun at the same distance is 19.4
inches. At shorter distances the dif
ferences in the destructive capacity is
much more pronounced, the muzzle
perforation of the new gun being 38.5
inches of iron, as against 26.7 inches
in the case of the older type of weapon.
The first vessels to be armed with
these guns will be the battle-ships

Engineer Tow a Queer Craft.
It has been stated that one of the
leading qualities exhibited by eleo
trical engineers during the war was
readiness of resource. This is well
illustrated in a story told by one of
the officers of the corps, says the
Boston Transcript. There was a good
deal of uneasiness about that time
around Boston, as no one knew but
that the Spanish fleet was sailing
stright for the city, and shells might
be flying within twenty-four hours.
One Saturday morning orders came
down to a squad of engineers to set
np before night a complete isolated
plant for searchlight work on ono of
the fortifications in the harbor. The
men in charge of getting the boiler
down the bay could get no suitable
lighter anywhere, so they simply
plugged the holes in the boiler, rolled
it off the pier, hitched it to a tug, and
towed it down the harbor, kept afloat
by the air inside it. The men who
had to take down the engine and
dynamo managed to get their ma
chines lunded, but there they waited,
with apparently no purpose of going
further.
On the whole island there was only
ono truck strong enough to carry the
machines from the dock to the fort,
and that was in charge of an Irishman
in the employ of the city of Boston,
who doggedly maintained that betook
no orders except, from the city offi
cials, and the authority of the United
States Government was nothing to
him. It was already late in the after
noon, and there was no possibility of
reaching the office of the authorities
in time to secure the permit. The
men simply took the driver to their
barracks, got him dead drunk and did
their own driving. And the search
light shone down the bay that night.

reeding Ilia Calf.
The dairyman who raises his own
stock for the supply of his herd, as
should generally be the praotice, will
have more or less of heifers coming
one and two years old. It is usually
calculated to have the heifers com
mence giving milk at about two years
old.
To secure satisfactory size and con
dition at this age will require the best
of care and feed from calfhood up.
During tho last nine mouths before
commencing to give milk, these young
animals have a double tak to perform
in securing their own growth aud
development aud that of the nnborn
calf. In order that this may be the
more successfully accomplished there
should be in the first place comfort
able quarters during the winter and
plenty of feed that will go to the
growth of bone aud muscle, but not
largely to that of fat Still the ani
mals should be in good condition at
calving time, as this is an excellent
start for successful milking afterwards.
In addition to good bay and corn
fodder or ensilage, there should be a
moderate grain ratiou. This may be
composed largely of wheat-bran and
ground oats as very beneficial for the
purpose, and will supply the material
most needed at this time. Use straw
for bedding, but not for feeding.
VThoro theso heifers are kept in
stalls as they should bo, they can be
easily handled and in this way they
become quiet and dooile. Frequent
carding and brushing will bo much
enjoyed by theso animals, as well as
by the cows, and will be of benefit to
them.
There should bo plenty of water,
not too cold, and a short stay in tho
yard for sun and exercise when not
stormy or too cold. Treated in this
way those heifers will possess force
and vigor, keep np a thrifty growth
during the winter and come to mater
nity aud the milkiug period in the
finest conditiou with promise of mak
ing the best of additions to the dairy.
Farm, Field and Fireside.
The Small Farm.
The little farm mnst really be well
tilled. The owner must devise plans
that will enable him to profitably put
all the labor on it that is at his com
mand. Any farm is too large if its
owner oannot farm it more extensive
ly than the average of the community,
for be it remembered that iu farming
averages don't pay. The average crop
of corn doesn't pay, nor the average
dairy cow. Only thoBe who do better
thau tho average make money. Any
farm is too small that does not profit
ably employ all the labor the farmer
has at his diposal, it being under
stood, of course, that the farming is
to bo well and thoroughly done. One
does not want to see how much he
can "scutch over", nor have a lot of
waste places lying around here and
there costing interest, taxes, repairs,
etc, aud bringing in nothing to make
the payments with. Especially does
he not want a lot of this land with a
mortgage on it.
Young farmers, too, should get over
the idea that they must either remain
hired hands or renters or else have
enough money or nerve to run in debt
to buy a big farm. Men in other walks
of life have to begin in a small way on
their own account, and why should
the young farmer hesitate to do so.
The chances are that if he buys what
perhaps seems to him to be a small
place, and puts all his labor on it so
as to cultivate it a good deal better
than the average about him, ho will
have more money and will have had
more happiness and content at the end
of ten years than if he could have
started on a larger scale. Wisconsin
Farmer.
Poultry Nates.
A fresh egg has a limclike surface to
its shell.
Too much soft cooked food is not
good for fowls. They need some em
ployment for the gizzard.
Overfeeding is expensive. It not
only costs more for the feed, but the
Lens get too fat and lay no eggs.
If yonr space is limited, keep only a
few fowls and let the few be very fine
ones, as it costs no more to feed a prize
winner than it does a scrub.
If you wish to be successful with
poultry, do not undertake too much at
first. Begin with a few fowls and
study their habits and wants and then
gradually iucreaso their number.
If your hens do not lay, or lay
doubb-yolked or soft-shelled eggs,
they are too fat, and more wheat and
oats (ami no corn) should be fed; also
require them to scratch for all the
grain they. eat.
White guineas are profitable fowls,
and it pays to have a few on the farm.
The egg is not large, but it has a fine
flavor. The white guineas is not to be
despised as a table fowl, having a rich
yellow skin and delicate, fine grained
flesh.
If after purchasing pure bred fowls
they do not begin laying at once, don't
get impatient. All they want is a lit
tle time to accustom themselves to
their new surroundings. If they
don t begin you may make np your
mind that their feed is not right.
A small flock which receives tho
scraps from the table produces eggs
when larger flocks are unprofitable.
The fact is plain tnatthe smaller flock
receives better feeding. Table scraps
are not grains. They contain a variety
not found in the rations of a large
flock.
Trials on a Torpedo Uont,
In a recent trip on a torpedo boat
across the Atlantic it was found im
possible for days at a lime to light a
fire in the cook's quarters. The offi
cers were so cramped in their cabins
that they were forced to sit with thoir
feet propped tip against tho sides of
tho boat. Every one on board during
rough weather was hurled from side to
oids of the narrow steel tube until all
were a mass of bruises and contu
sions. To cap their troubles they
slopt with the unpleasant knowledge
that beneath them were stored ex
plosives sufficient to blow them be
yond the clouds.

"Her to Ho Business."
As I was walking down a certain street
lu New York City, writes Harry Green
smith, my attention was called to a largo
sign overhanging the sidewalk, which
rend "Here to Do Business."
I parsed on; but later la the evening I
returned the same way, and the same sign
still shown forth its message, "Hero to l)o
Business." This time the changeablo col
ored electric lights.whlch gleamed through
the letters, made tho slga all tbo more
noticeable.
My curiosity whs aroused: I tu'nod to
to investigate. A large plate glass window,
with Us colored elnctrlo shades, sent forth
its glow across the street. I pushed ankle
the mahogany scroen doors and entered. I
found mysolf in a New York fashionable
saloon.
As I walked down the aisle I walked over
sliver and gold dollars Inlaid in the floor.
As I neared the further end, I found small
rooms curtained off, aud furnished In
mahogany; chairs, tables and lounges, all
of the very be;t workmanship. For wains
coting they havo beveled plato glass mir
rors. On the walls were, what some might
term beautiful oil paintings; to mo they
were filthy, lewd, disgusting,
I went further and still these rooms con
tinued, lit up only by meagrs wax candles
the beautiful light ot heaven being com-
Iiletely shut out. I heard the song ot tho
inrlot and In disgust I turned from the
scene to pass out. But as I did so, I could
but stop and notice ths long bar, made of
solid mahogony, inlaid with silver and
gold coins, and choice pearls.
Behind tho bar was a loos plate glass
mirror. I noticed a flaw In one end of It,
and inquired ot the bartendor tho cause.
I was informed that some young men, hav
ing imbibed too freely, began quarreling.
Ono drew a revolver, to shoot the bar
tender, and, misslngblm, bad bit tho glass.
Tho owner of tbo saloon, standing near by,
heard my question, and In a rags further
answered: "Yes! I would to God It had
bit the man rather than have broken that
glass."
Upon further Inquiry, I heard that tho
interior of that saloon had cost a little
over $100,000. With a pitying eyo, and a
sorrowful heart, I turned from theseeno to

As I pas;ed down tho street, that sign
weut ever before me; those words still
rang in my ears "Here to Do Business."
Yes; what kind of business? A business
that will debauch .nanhood, that will ruin
womanhood, that will ensnare the young
man, that will rob virtue from the youug

society, to walk our streets la despair, lie

Lincoln's Promise to Ills Mother.
While drinking whisky was the fashion
all about Mm, Abrahnm Lincoln never for
got his dead mother's request to close bit
lips against intoxicants. Once, when b
was a member of Congress, a friend criti
cised him for bis Beemlng rudeness in de
clining to test the rare wines provided by
their host, urging as reason for tho re
proof, "There is certainly no danger ot a
man ot your years aud haolts beoomtug
addicted to Its use."
"I mean no disrespect, John," answered
Mr. Lincoln, "but I promised my preolous
mother only a few days before she die!
that I would never use anything Intoxicat
ing as a beverage, and I consider that
promise as binding to-day as it was the
day I gavs it."
"There Is a great difference betwfen a
child surrounded by a rcuga class of
drinkers, and a man In a home of refine
ment," Insisted tho friend.
"But a promise is a promise forever,
John, and when mada to a mother it is
doubly binding," replied Mr. LIocoIl.
The Secret Drinker.
The secret drinker is no doubt injured in
the same way as others, and his foolish ef
forts to conceal this act intensifies the lu
lu ry, which after a time break out in some
unexpected form, ending fatally. The sud
den, unexpected death ot persons'previous
ly supposed to bo well, has in many caes
revealed the fact of secret spirit drinking
of many years' duration, with destruction
of vitality and general decadence. Life In
surance compauies are often awaro ot this
faot, and appoal tor help, put it lsexceen
Ingly difficult to eonvlct or prove secret
drinking in a man with a largo insurance,
and more difficult after death to bring out
this fact. Tho law In these cases will sel
dom allow presumptive evidence; It must
be direct and positive ot tbo use of spirits.
Unmistakable insanity Is present In some
cases, seen In the unusual cunning and
wise calculation to procure spirits and con
coal its effects.

The Dog lteporter.
Bob, a fox terrier that belongs to
the chief of one ot the Washington
newspaper bureaus, is generally
known along Newspaper Bow as "the
(log reporter." The correspondent of
the Detroit News-Tribune tells why.
There are some sanctums that the
ordinary reporter doe,s not dare to en
ter, unless especially iuvited; not so
with Bob. His nerve is supreme.
He starts out each morning with great
regularity to make the rounds of the
Trensnry Departmeut, White House,
and War, State aud Navy Bnildings,
nsuk'ly aooompanying one of the re
porters of the bureau. If they are
behind timo he goes on his own hook.
He is known iu praotically all the
departments, and when he comes
alone officials discreetly conceal all
letters or other documents which may
have news in them, because Bob will
never leave an office without some
tangible proof that he has called. A
few weeks ago ho was discovered by
Secietnry Oage calmly walking out of
his office with a bundle of letters pre
sented by a Western Congressman in
behalf of a constituent who wanted a
position. Bob was greatly aggrieved
when the messenger forcibly relioved
him of his "scoop."
Boo also frequently pays his re
spects to the President. Unlike most
callers, Bob always sees the chief
magistrate when the spirit moves him
so to do, and incidentally, iu his dem
onstrations of dolipl t over a Dewey
victory or some other little achieve
ment., he paws the creases all out of
the Presidential trousers.
