The wind does not affect the ther mometer, as any one may hud out for himself by a simple test. Take two drv bulb th run m te s of exactly the same kind and hang one of them where it will be exposed to the wind and the other where it will be shelter ed—say, on two sides of the corner of the house —and after allowing them to hang thus for a few minutes you will find {that they register the same. And yet the person who stands near the thermometer that hangs in the wind will feel the ci Id mor smsib'y than the person who stands near the sheltered one. The wind is simply air in motion, and air in motion is no colder than the same air in a state of rest. We feel colder in the wind simply because it's blowing over us takes the heat away from the body by causing a more rapid evaporation from the skin. There is no evaporation from the dry bulb of a thermometer, and therefore the wind docs not affect it. PROFESSIONAL EATERS. Imlin n« Employ Suhntltutea to Con- MU nte Food For Them. One of the most striking customs of the past that are preserved by the In dians of today Is found among the tribes on tho Devil's Lake reserva tion In North Dakota. An official of the Indian service gives the following account of this peculiar practice: "From time immemorial the Devil's Lake Sioux have adhered to an old custom In regard to the treatment of a guest. According to their etiquette, it is the bounden duty of the host to supply his gucist with all the food he may desire, and as a rule the appor tionment set before the visiting Indian is much In excess of the capacity of a single man. "But by the same custom the guest Is obliged to eat all that Is placed be fore him, else he grossly Insults his entertainer. It was found that this practice would work a hardship, but instead of dispensing with the cus tom the Indian method of reasoning was applied, and what is known as the professional eater was brought to the front. "While the guest is supposed to eat all that Is placed before liiin, it serves the same purpose If Ills neighbor as sists in devouring the bountiful repast, the main object being to have the plate clean when the meal is finished. "It is not always practicable to de pend upon a neighbor at table to as sist in getting away with a large din ner, and in order to insure the final consumption of the allotted portion visiting Indians call upon these pro fessional eaters, whose duty it Is to sit beside them through a meal and eat what the guest leaves. The pro fessional eaters are never looked upon In tho light of guests, but more as traveling companions with a particu lar duty to perforin. "These eaters receive from $1 to $2 and even $0 for each meal where they assist. It Is stated by the agent of the Devil's Lake reservation that one of the professional eaters has been known to dispose of seventeen pounds of beef at a sitting. That they are capable of eating an almost fabulous amount 1 myself can testify."—Hy gienic Gazette. "SLEEPY" WOODCHUCK. The Little AnlntnU Are Far MOM Alert Thun They Appear. If there is any one of our native ani mals that looks slow, clumsy, lazy and generally unfit to survive In the struggle for existence It is the wood • chuck. After he has built, or rather excavated, his home—which, to tell the truth, ho does in a rapid and busi nesslike way—he does nothing but eat and sleep. Yet any one who sizes him ; up as an Incompetent is likely to get fooled, for he is a source of continual , surprises. When your garden Is not far from • the woods you may be awakened in ' the middle of the night by a series of I most alarming yells and howls, oe- cnsloned by some hungry woodchuck that has come for a nocturnal visit to the cabbage patch and met with a warm reception from your dogs. The woodchuck usually gets away appar ently unharmed, while the dogs are left to nurse their scratched noses and fore paws. The woodchuck. In fact, has plenty of courage and will always fight in preference to running away. Throughout the summer this little "wood pig" spends most of his time in the vicinity of his burrow, coming out early in the morning to take his break fast, returning to his nest for a morn ing nap, appearing again at noon and late in the afternoon for his dinner and supper, only to return again for an other snooze. Occasionally he makes a visit to some neighboring orchard or garden. By Oct. 1, when he is fat, he retires into his subterranean home for a long sleep, until, as we are led to be lieve, the proverbial "ground hog" day. —County Life In America. Took Hint For it Gentleman. A bookseller In New York city tells a story which admirably illustrates the tact and humor of Bernard Qua ritcb, the London dealer In books and manuscripts. The New York man vis ited Quaritch's shop for the purpose of obtaining a number of valuable scien tific works. After making his selection he stepped up to Mr. Quariteh and asked the price. As Mr. Quariteh be gan to quote the figures the American Interrupted him, Saying: "Hut I am a dealer myself. What are the trade prices?" "Oh," replied the famous bookman, "I thought you were a gen tleman." The American was taken aback for a moment, but only for a mo ment. for Mr. Quariteh held out his hand and said smilingly: "But I am delighted to find that you are not only n gentleman, but a dealer as well. The trade discount Is one-third off." i A Financier. Ethel—l know he is a financier, but he is not a speculator. Maude—llow do you know, dear?

Whitehead.] "Would you object to telling me your reason for wanting to marry me?" she asked 111 an aggressive tone that qua vered into pathos. Such an unexpected answer caused Barnard to rise from his chair some two or three Inches before he remem bered that It Is the unexpected that al ways happens. He sat down carefully, j having achieved a calm that implied that hers was the generally recognized | method of answering a proposal. I "\\ by—er—for the same mason that other men have asked you to marry them, 1 suppose—because I care more for you than for any one else." "The others," she said slowly, "have had various motives. There haven't j been so very many," she added, as if | constrained to be honest. "I have known you so short a time I could not be aware of that. I should never have believed It without your j assurance." The hardness of her face relaxed slightly. "You are the fourth," she said shortly. "Will you tell me why the other three J failedV" softly. She leaned back In her easy chair and grasped Its arms wlfh a nervous, awkward movement. Barnard noticed the strong, white hands, larger than his by far. "Do men ever love a woman that weighs 195 pounds?" she asked bitterly. "I have known one man that aceoui- j plished the feat." He smiled in her ; eyes encouragingly. "One couldn't feel an lucUnatlon to hold a hand of that size. It's uncom- i fortable In a 0% glove." She held the offending member before him as If she could cheerfully have amputated the left one and have overtaken the right with a similar fate before they com municated to each other any knowl edge of their various doings. "The man 1 mentioned feels a trou blesome inclination to hokl that very hand," he laughed. "You are old enough to have acquir ed better tnste," she retorted censori ously. "How old are you, by the way?" "Born exactly forty-nine years and 1 three months ago." "I don't object to that," leniently. "It makes me feel somewhat better, I think. A woman of thirty-live likes to feel young even by comparison." "I'm sure I'll never object to com- ; parisons in our family. If it pleases' you we'll turn down Mr. Shakespeare's opinion concerning them." "In all my thirty-live ytars"— she began. "You seem proud to enumerate them. You might knock off five without any one suspecting," eying her with the air of an expert. "Simple honesty shouldn't be caught embezzling," she smiled, with a sense of good comradeship. Her hands re laxed from their grip on the chair aud fell more comfortably upon her lap. "Didn't the other three think it would be rather nice?" He loolied meaningly at the hand nearest him. "I don't think anybody ever wanted to," she answered simply. "I look too much like the sturdy oak and have re ceived none of the tenderness that falls to the lot of clinging vines. Of course there are storms from which the oak might like to be sheltered. I don't like my masculine manner—l hate it," ve hemently—"but it gives a better effect than if I tried to he kittenish. A hun dred and ninety-five pound kitten would run such a serious risk of being mistaken for a giddy elephant." "Precisely," he agreed. "But even a feminine elephant might long to be admired occasionally and— l«yed." "Didn't the other three ever"— lie gently stroked the firm, white hand. "Thej' didn't want to," she blushed furiously. "But why, then"— he commenced. "Oh, one of them was a widower and said It was so expensive having all the sewing done out for four children." He frowned sympathetically. "The seeond wanted a partner to help run a boarding school." He nodded. "The third was a preacher and thought It was not good for man to live alone. He didn't seem to think dyspeptic tendencies and an insuffi cient Income obstacles to prevent his finding a companion with all ease. 111 fact, his manner was full of assurance that I would Jump at the chance. None of them, nobody In all my life, ever really cared for 111* They only want ed me to help them do something." Her eyes were full of tears. "1 would like some one to love me as they do the pretty little woman. I am just as affectionate and tender hearted as if I were little and dainty" —her lip quivered—"and—l—want—to be loved--and to be—like them." She covered her face with her hands. He sat down on the arm of the easy chair with an air that was Joyous and youthful. "Dear little woman," ho said, ignor ing the fact that the shoulders shaken by sobs were broad as his own, "the other three needed killing. I would love to slay them for you one by one, but unfortunately there Is a law against It. I will content myself re joicing that their lack of appreciation left a chance for the fourth one." He smoothed the hair gently from her forehead. "The fourth man loves you," he said, with a simplicity of words strong In feeling. She slowly raised her head and look ed in his face. In her eyes was shin ing the same expression that men have often seen in the eyes of thoss mors favored women she envied. The ama zon sank into Insignificance; the wo man came into her own triumphantly. "Sweetheart!" he said. TROY ALLISON. Special Fores h St. Louis via Lackawanna.

Did you ever take a day off ecouring ttie fields and plodding through high weeds and briars and thorns in quest of the nimble, fleet footed cottontails, ar.d get your hands scratched and pricked, and then return home hungry and tired and only too ready to accept a light n.eal and hurry off to bed? Well, that was the case with Mr. Harry Ritter, the clever compositor of The Intelligencer, accompanied by hii faithful dog "Pearl" and your humble correspondent. *We, the successful trio, boarded a I)., L.

The day was all that could be expected : the gentle rays of the sun were just warm enough to make it pleasent for bunny to be out, while the cool and invigorating breeze was just what could l>e devoutelv wished. Arriving at the "happy hunting grounds," Harry was soon engaged in "kicking out" the favorite game, and it was not long until our wish was gratified, for out jumped a rabbit, when bang went two guns, and as we were not expect ing the surprise bunny escaped into a honey-combed nest just as the reporter poured a volley of shot into the fleeing animal. Then meandering further down the river, we were more fortunate and succeeded in bagging three cottontails, which was considered a good day's work. We then returned; home perfectly de , lighted with the jolly, never-to-be-for gotten outing. COMRADE.
