The many sidedness of the domestic goat as a contributor to the satisfac tion of bnmai needs is perhaps less un derstood than the facts warrant The Importance of the goatskin in the leather trade we all know about, and most of us have heard that goat's miik Is a staple article of diet among some peoples. But It takes a trip to New Mexico, where herds of these demo cratic animals are an everyday feature of the landscape, to make us acquaint ed with the fact that goat's flesh is shipped east by the car load to do duty as mutton chops, that goat horn is a material out of which the Ingenious red man loves to fashion tobacco boxes ( and that the live goat makes an ex-i cellent thrashing machine. In New Mexico it is quite common to see a thrashing floor upon which wheat is being tramped out by a herd of goats. Such thrashing floors are made in the open fields by plastering a bit of ground with adobe mud, which dries in the hot southwestern sun to the hardness of cement. Upon this the ripened sheaves are spread. The goats are then turned in and driven rapidly round and round by shouting Mexicans or Indians, the trampling of the multi tudinous little hoofs gradually shatter ing the grain out of the heads. When all Is considered beaten out the goats are given a recess, and the drivers pick up shovels and pitchforks and start In to toss the broken straw and the chaff high In the air. The wind catches the light stuff In midair and carries it away, while the grain, by reason of its weight, falls to the ground and is ready for the sack. These thrashing customs, primitive as the time of the pharaobs, form one of the most picturesque sights of agricultural life in New Mexico, that easy going land of "wait a bit" where in ail the United States time is cheapest and hurry is least known. Philadelphia Record. DRESDEN POLICE. rfhey Are PermltteU to Impoae Small Finn on OCendera. One advantage accrues to the respec table member of the community from the minuteness with which the Dres den police look Into the affairs of every inhabitant of the city. If lie is a care ful man and always carries papers which may serve to establish his iden tity he is practically immune from the indignity of being arrested and march ed off to the police station unless, in deed, be commits some especially hei nous crime. Does he drive faster than the law permits, dots he cross a bridge on the left hand side, he is stopped by the guardian of law and order and re quested to give his name, if he has his papers with him the policeman may then and there Impose a fine of from Ito 3 marks. If then he admits that he is in the wrong and pays the fine the incident is closed. If, however, he wishes to appeal from the policeman's decision he may do so. Even in that case he Is not arrested, but a day or two later he is notified to appear in court and answer to the charge against him. But then if he is found guilty the lowest fine that can be Imposed is 3 marks. That this custom of per mitting the policeman personally to im pose small fines is little understood by foreigners is shown by a remark made to me by a gentleman who had lived in Germany the greater part of his life and in Dresden for a number of years. In reply to my inquiry as to whether there was ever any question of cor-_ ruption In the police department he re plied: "No; none whatever as far as the higher officers are concerned. The In dividual men, however, may be brib< d occasionally. For instance, If I wore to walk on the grass in the Gross"r garten and a policeman caught me at i w miiv I *' " r and that would end the matter."—Phil adelphia Ledger. The Tailor Bird. The brilliantly plumed birds of the tropical forests are exj>o»ed to many dangers, and if they were not gifted with peculiar yet useful instincts th'-y would fall ready victims to their ene mies. Chattering monkeys and big snakes steal and eat their eggs, while their offspring are preyed upon by foes on every side. But it takes a sly monkey or snake to get ahead of the tailor bird, a small East Indian sing ing bird. She hides her nest so skill fully that her enemies cannot find it no matter how hard they try. This she does by using her long, slender bill as a needle. With the tough fiber of a parasite plant abundant in the tropics as a thread she sews a dead leaf taken from the ground to a liv ing one near the end of a slender and hanging branch, and between these leaves she builds her nest, where nei ther monkey nor snake can approach, because the branch will not bear their weight The Literary Chap la Finance. "I know a literary chap, good writer and all that but with absolutely no business sense, who suddenly decided the thing for him to do was to start a bank account" said the secretary of a financial institution. "He came in to see me about it I asked him how much be had, and he said he had saved $59. I told him we rarely started ac counts on such small deposits, but would make an exception in his case to encourage thrift and school him lu business. "lie went through the preliminaries nervously, signed the signature card, put bis money in and got a nice new bank book. By that time be was all flustered. They gave him a check book, and be decided he would have to have some money for present use. The re ceiving teller Introduced him to the paying teller, and be inquired the procedure of checking out money. The paying teller explained at length. Then my literary friend went over to the desk and wrote a check for his entire SOO, got the money and went out." Comparative A(t> of Anlmala. Q.— What Is the age of (Tfleld mouse? A.—A year.

The effect of a do« on a oat's tall is well worth study. When a cat enooun j ters a strange dog the tall Immediately : assumes an upright position, the back ) becomes highly arcued, and the fur ! stands out straight all over the body. | This sudden change dismays the dog, i who brills himself to a halt, and tlie j two regard each other steadfastly. But if the dog should turn his gaze away for a fraction of a second there Is a swish and a bound, and the cat has disappeared over a fence or up a tree. Stimulated by the presence of a dog, cats have been known to climb to such heights that they were unable to d'> ■ceiul the way they went up. j The Butler County National Bank, j BUTLER.
