THE CARRIER'S
SUGGESTIONS
1. You will be doing jour carrier a
great favor if you always stamp your
mail before putting same in box, or
use government stamped envelopes,and
always put return upon left hand cor
ner. This will guarantee delivery or
return of letter.
2. If you should not happen to have
stamp-, ur stamped envelopes wrap the
amount up iu paper,remembering that
in cold weather if the money is putin
the box loose, the carrier has to take
off his gloves or mittens to get hold of
these loose pennies.
3. Always put stamp upon the up
per right hand corner. If you should
spoil a government stamped envelope
your carrier or postmaster will redeem
it with stamps or postal cards at post
office.
4. When addressing a letter to one
who is not a regular patron of a rural
route or postoftico you should mark on
the envelope iu whose care the letter
or package should go.
5. In addressing your letters do not
write above the middle of the en
velope, as the address may be partly
blurred by being struck with the post
marking stamp.
ti. In regard to boxes help your car
rier by having a good one iu a good
easy place to drive up to.and always
have your mail ready.
7. If you have visitors who are ex
pecting mail, you should give the car
rier their names.
S. Any mail matter deposited iu
box is subjected to ordinary postage
rates.
it. Packages should be well wrapped
and securely tied,and all valuable let
ters and packages should be registered,
which costs 8 cents iu addition to reg
ular postage. This insures safe deliv
ery and return receipt.
10. The mail boxes are protected by
the government, any one tampering
with them not interested should be re
ported to your carrier or postmaster.
Zephyr, Cipher and Zero.
"Zephyr" and "cipher" and "zero"
ore words that come to the English
from the Arabic "slfr," which meant
literally "empty" and so "nothing" and
the figure that represents nothing. In
mediaeval Latin this figure was called
both "ciphrn" and "zephyrum," the lat
ter probably from association with "ze
phyrus" or something even lighter
than air; hence through the Italian
"zefiro" there is ttie word "zero" as a
doublet with "cipher."

for the first time that these children

IKE AWFUL BIG CATS
They Are the Most Dangerous of
All Wild Animals.
TIGERS MERCILESS DEMONS.
While Easy to Handle and Quick to
Learn, When Aroused They Are
Fiends Incarnate—Panthers, Jaguars
and Leopards Are Treacherous.
"Of all wild animals," writes A. W.
Rolker in Appleton's Magazine, "in
cluding the rhinoceros with his fright
ful charge and his dreadful horn, In
cluding the rogue elephant with bis
unbounded strength, his marvelous
cunning and his villainous trunk, and
including that gray shaggy rogue, the
American grizzly, with his rib crush
ing hug, his ponderous paw and his
hot, reeking maw, no beast is as dnn
gerous toman as any one of the big
cats.
"For, besides the mouth provided
with teeth that can crunch through the
leg bone of a man as if it were a
pipestem, each foot is provided with
five poniard-like claws, pointed like
needles and from three to four and a
half inches long. As the beast strikes
with these he draws the claws in,
keeping hold of muscles and tendons
and ligaments and tearing them out of
the flesh until they snap like rubber
bands, so that unless the victim suc
cumbs it will be months and months
and sometimes years and years be
fore he can regain use of an injure'!
member.
"But not only do these talons tear
viciously. Curious to say, although
the claws are needle pointed and
the edges are dull as the tip of a littlo
finger, a cut with one of these hooks
Is like the cut of a dagger. On one oc
casion in Bostock's trained wild ani
mal show a Bengal tigress made a
sweep at a European black bear, cut
through the six inch thick fur of the
bear and cut rtiree parallel strips two
feet long and six inches deep and
clean as razor slashes to the very
backbone of the beast.
"As a matter of fact, the dexterity
of one of these big cats' claws is as
tounding. Here is a curious accident
which Happened to Bostock when he
undertook personally to break in a
'rogue' tiger that had 'gone bad.' Pro
vided with sole leather guards worn
next the skin and covering the fleshy
part of the leg from the groin to the
knee, he entered the arena with Uie
bad one and was attacked and wound
ed. His trousers were slashed in otio
spot Just big enough to admit a single
claw, an undergarment showed two
similar and the sole leather guard
three similar cuts, while the flesh was
torn an inch deep In four places three
inches long.
"Still another instance showing the
marvelous quickness of claw happened
in the same show when the trainer in
charge of a leopard group was saved
in the nick of time from a rogue which
had tried to pull him down by climb
ing up on him. The arm of this man
showed between wrist and elbow alone
twenty-six wounds varying from a
quarter of an inch deep and an inch
long to one Inch deep and four inches
long.
"Of all the big cats, Including that
magnificent Jungle mailed monarch of
might, the lion, and Including those
beautifully spotted orange and black
villains, the Jaguar and the leopard,
and their cousin, that noiseless, light
ning swift traitor, tlie panther, train
ers prefer to handle the tiger.
"This is contrary to the popular be
lief which credits the tiger as the most
bloodthirsty of all wild beasts. The
tiger is, however, the quickest to learn
and the easiest to handle. Whereas
the tiger always remains a nervous,
high strung brute, after a time a lion
becomes phlegmatic and lazy and re
quires urging, which is apt to cause
trouble.
"Whereas the tiger is a demon incar
nate and merciless once aroused, he Is
at least an honest fighter that gives
ample warning when about to attack
and only as a rare exception attacks a
man front behind, unlike the jaguar,
the leopard and the panther, which are
treacherous and almost invariably at
tack when a back Is turned.
"Again, of all this dangerous family
the nature of the tiger comes nearest
that of any ordinary house cat, ami. al
ways comparatively, the tiger It is that
is most appreciative once the master
has succeeded in establishing his truce.
Then, like the domestic cat, he likes to
brush up against the person of his
trainer, loves to have his hack rubbed
and groomed and the top of his head
scratched to soothe the everlasting Itch
between the ears, while he emits purs
of satisfaction, forgetting that the
least tinforeseen accident may arouse
murderous instincts that would In a
twinkling convert the friendly uie*ting
Into a shambles."

Th* Way Judge Thacher Dodged a
Challenge to a Duei.
Documents in the Congressional li
brary at Washington show that when
the establishment of the mint was
under discussion in Washington's time
there were some amusing debates in
congress concerning the devices the
coins should bear. There is one ac
count of a squabble over the design
for the silver dollar.
It appears that a member of the
house from a southern state bitterly
npposed the choice of the eagle on ac
count of its being the "king of birds,"
und hence neither suitable nor proper
to represent a nation whose institu
tions and interests were wholly in
imical to monarchical forms of govern
ment.
Judge Thacher iu reply hud playfully
suggested dint perhaps a goose might
suit the gentleman, as it was rather u
humble and republican bird and would
also be serviceable in other respects,
as the goslings would answer to place
upon the dimes.
This reply created considerable mer
riment. and the irate southerner, con
sidering the humorous rejoinder an in
sult, sent a challenge to Judge Thach
er. who proudly declined it. The bear
er, rather astonished, asked, "Will you
be branded as a coward?"
"Certainly, if he pleases," replied
Thacher. "1 always was one, and he
knew it. or he would never have risked
u challenge."
The affair caused much mirth, but
was finally adjusted, cordial relations
being restored, the irritable southern
er concluding that there was nothing
to be gained in lighting one who fired
nothing but jokes.—Chicago Chronicle.
Torpedo Boats.
Torpedo boats and torpedo destroy
ers are thin skinned, unarmored craft.
Often the steel hull Is only about half
on Inch in thickness, but they travel
as fast as many railway trains, some
thirty or thirty-five miles an hour.
They discharge their deadly bolt and
run. A dark, st innv night is their
chance. Then, v.tthout a light show
ing, they <!n?h in and launch their tor
peilo, escaping, if they can, the hail of
rapid fire that is sure to deluge them.
—Frank E. Channon In St. Nicholas.
Force of Habit.
Realizing that Ie should pay her a
compliment, the chronic debtor hesi
tates before the beautiful woman. At
last he says to her:
"Just make a little tab for me. and
next time I'm down your way I'll tell
you how well you are looking."
But the look oti her countenance was
enough to make him realize that com
pliments must be paid on face value
and that beauty keeps no books.—St.
Louis Republic.
Friends and Reputation.
Ii who believes himself surrounded
by admirers and whose vanity Is hour
ly feasted with all the luxuries of
praise easily persuades himself that
his Influence will be extended beyond
this lil'e; that those who he thinks are
protul to be numbered among his
frleu Is will endeavor to vindicate Ills
choice by zeal for his reputation.—Dr.
Johnson In "Idler Papers."
Th« Cinchona Tree.
The cultivation of the cinchona tree
is one of the principal industries of
Java, and the chemical process adopt
ed by the 1 Hitch for the preparation of
the drug is said to produce the best
sulphate ol quinine procurable. This
is carried out in Holland, whither the
bark as stripped from the trees and
dried is exported. Cinchona planta
tions are frequent on the lower hills
throughout Java, and the trees are of
all sizes, from the mere saplitig up to
thirty feet high.
To Make the Job Complete.
"I wish you would see what is the
matter with this," said the customer,
handing his watch across the show
case. "It has stopped. Perhaps there's
a hair tangled up in the balance
wheel."
The jeweler opened it, screwed his
eyeglass into place and made the cus
tomary horrible grimace at the help
less watch.
"A hair!" be said. "There's a lock
of 'em."
"Well, give it a shampoo."
Rapidly Aged.
Client (to matrimonial agent)— You
showed me this lady's photo last year
and told me she was twenty-five, but
after making inquiries l find she is
over thirty. Matrimonial Agent—Well,
you see, her father died lately and that
aged her very much.
The Wife's Reasons.
One of the late Sir Francis Evans'
elections for Southampton occurred
when be was in America, and his wife
undertook to conduct the campaign.
Addressing a crowded meeting, she
said: "1 ask you to vote for my hus
band because I love liim and he can
not speak for himself. I know he will
keep all the promises I have made In
his name because he loves me."
"That's the right s >rt of home rule,"
some one shouted out. and the lady had
the gratification of seetng her husband
elected with a most satisfactory ma
jority.—St. James' Gazette.
An KlTfcllve Middle.
On one occasion when he was busy
President Lincoln received a delega
tion of men who were endeavoring to
hurry the passing of some petty bill.
When they entered, Lincoln looked up
gravely and said:
"If you call the tail of a sheep a leg,
how many legs will the sheep have?"
"Five," said the spokesman.
"No," replied Lincoln, "It would only
have four. Calling the tall a leg would
not make It one."
The delegation departed in discom

hear It, for I hope you will find a bet
