Owing to its obstinacy and seem- ing stupidity the pig is usually classed among the dull animals. This, how- ever, is not a just estimate of its in- telligence “Learned” pigs that could pick out letters of the @&iphabet have been exhibited zt fafis. Throw a pig ! into deep water, whd it will begin swithming ashore at once, which is {| more than most ¥en are able to do In France they have been trained to hunt for fFuffies (which are hidden anderground) and to draw the plow. They hawve ven been taught to act as pointers. In most cases they are trained by means of reward for suc- cess. In pointing, for example, when they spot the bird, they drop their tail and ears ama sink on their knees and do not rise until after the bird {as risen they are rewarded with pud- ding. Fear of the Law. The fiteral striciness of German rules and wegulations has always been a matter of amusement to other ma- tions which do not imsist so rigidly on the letter of the law. A writer im the Washington Star recently told a story illustrating this point. Two men, Schmidt and Krauss, met one morn- ing in the park. “Hawe you heara,” “the sad news atout Muller?” “No,” said wrauss. “What is it?” “Well, oor Muller went boating on the river yesterday. The boat cap- cized and he was drowned. The wa- ter was ten feet deep.” “But couldn’t he swim?” “Swim? Don't you know that all persons are strictly :orbiddem by the pelice to swim in the river?” said ‘Schmidt. Fenholders Made from Packing sox. Doth ingenuitv and economy are represented by a practice reported from Calcutta, India. A firm in that city imports drugs in wooden boxes from the United States and England. It then works up good material from. the packing cases into penholders. Both the city and provincial govern- ments buy these products, but the penholders are said to be rather crude. Labor is sc very cheap in In- dia that it would be hard to compete with any manufactured article there, but inexpensive penholders made in large quantities in America migat have a chance of selling in that far- off land, nevertheless. A great saving in cost always results from the use of machinery. Slang in England. Hotten’s division of slang terms for inebriety would be useful in police courts if fashion did net so quickly change in this respect. The following were classified as denoting mild intox- cution: Beery, bemused, boozy, bus- Ly, buuy, corned, foggy, fou, fresa, wasy, elevated, kisky, lushy, mooncy, Liuggy, muzzy, on, screwed, stew. d. .igut and winey. In an intermediate “1a58 stood podgy, beargered, blued, cut, primed, lumpy, muddled, plougu- .d, obfuscated, swipey, three sheets in the wind and topheavy. Farming. “Farmers Raise Money” is the head- ine of an article in the Mexico .dger. No trouble nowadays to ‘alse money. All he has to do is to mich up a chicken or a dozen eggs «r . stick of cordwood or a peck of curn yi walf a dozen potatoes and bring ‘vin i» town and sell 'em and his fortune > wade.—Louisiana Mo., Press-Jour- nal. Drives Away Fever. An eminent Spanish scientist has nude the recent discovery that the sLutiower yields a splendid febrifuge ..«t can be useu as a substitute :or {..uine. Accordingly, the sunflower ,..ouid not only, by its growing, exert ...at fever-dispelling effect, but also sic.d a product which is used advan- .wseously in all fevers. Wasps Capture Flies. Wasps prey on flies—a fact which s well known in Italy. On any suw- wer or early autumn day in the Tus can country parts, when the luncheon table is blackened by flies, one may see a wasp sail in at the open win- dow, select a fly, roli it over, curl it ap and carry it out into the sunshine and soon return for another. Ballasted with Gold. A section of the Canadian Northern Railway running northwest from Sud- bury and crossing at Vermilion river, is unique in that it is ballasted with gold. Every yard of the gravel used for ballast has been found to contain from 50 cents’ worth .to a dollar's worth of the precious metal, in the shape of fine dust. Government Runs Bars. In some parts of Russia the bar- rooms are run by the government, ac- cording tc a recent law. It is the ule for all males remove their hats when in a government building, and it is ludicrous to see the patrons of the barrooms standing, hat in hand, while waiting for the barkeepers to serve their toddy. A Sharp Answer. “] am not happy with my husband. Can I get a separation?” asked a lady of a lawyer. “His life is insured in your favor, isn’t it?” “Yes; I made him do that before we married.” “Well, dcn’t separate. He'll live long er away from you!” Educated to Housework. Housework and marketing is part of the education of a Belgian girl.

An inst amee Showing That Hospital. ity is not Always Appreciated. Southern hospitality is proverbially generous. In “The Old Dominion” Mr. “Thomas Nelson Page recounts ah ‘instance showing that this hospi- t?.lity was not always appreciated. A guest asked the loan of a horse to carry him to his next stopping-place, a town which lay at a considerable distance. The host accordingly lent him his worse, and sent along a negro boy—it was before the war—to bring the horse back. After several days the boy was still missing, and some one was sent to hunt him up. The messenger found him at last, anc demanded why he had not returned with the horse “'Cause dat gent'man done sell de horse,” was the reply. “Well, why didn’t you come back and say so?” “Hi! He done sell me, too,” the boy. said Calling the Deaf. “To waken a deaf person who wishes to be called at a certain tiiue in the morning is about the hardest proposition a hotel clerk runs up against” raid a member of that fra ternity. “To ring the telephone is use- less because the man can’t hear. xnocking, for the same reason. is futile. Now and then a guest who has lost his hearing suggests that he leave his door open so we can walk :ight in and shake him, but even it Le does appear to be dead game there are so many chances of somebody less guileless than ourselves walking in ahead of us that we can’t consent to that simple expedient. “It seems to me the man who con patent a device for waking the deaf i: sure of fame and fortune, not to men: tion the gratitude of the brotherhoos of hotel: clerks.” A Substitute. Irish wil is as excellent as it is pro verbial. A writer in the. Mariner's Advocate tells the story of a ship doc: tor on an English liner wno notified the death-watch steward, a Hibernian. that a man had died in stateroom for- ty-five. The usual instructions te bury the body were given. Some hours later the doctor peeped into the room and found that the body was still there. He called the matter to the atten- tion of the Irishman, who replied: “I thought you said room forty--ix. I wint in there and sen wan of thim in a bunk. ‘Are ye dead? says I ‘No,’ says he, ‘but I'm pretty nex dead’ So I was getting ready to bury him.” A Few Things Worth Knowing. Cork will not rise if sunk twenty feet below water. The negro republic of Liberia has twenty-two species of rubber trees. Korea, with a population of 20,00". 000, consumes 840,000,000 cigareiies vearly. Sixty years ago the use of flint an: steel to produce a fire was not who'ly unknown. Vegetarian experts assert that on: acre of land will comfortably support four persons on a vegetable diet. Original New England. The original New England was o: the Pacific, and not on the Atlanti coast. When Sir Francis Drake land cd on American shores in 1779. bh« took possession of the country fo | Nueen Elizabeth, calling it “Nova Al Hion,” meaning New England. The “tates of New Hampshire, Massachn etts, Maine, Connecticut, Rhode T nd Vermont have, therefore, app: priated the name which should b ‘ong to California. Third Class Express. One of the most popular trains i India is a thira-class express on th rast Indian line. First and second class passengers are not admitted t it. Tts success lies in the fact that @ is strictly a third-class express. T" train is the pride of the general ma: ager, and pays well. It is alwa~-s crammed full, though no passenger has a ticket for a journey shorter than 200 miles. A Queer Fish. The mud-skipper is one of the queer: est fishes alive. It really is a fish and lives in the water, but it can climb out on to the shore and crawl. It likes to clamber up on to roots of trees and perch there. Another funny thing about it is that it breathes with its tail! The skin there is very thin, and the fish breathes through it qui easily. The Barrister’s Back Pocket. Old-time barristers in England did not openly receive fees for their s-r vices. An early method of collecting fees was the pocket which in mediaeva times a barrister used to have placed in the back of his gown, into which the solicitor would surreptitiously sliv the fee. Bad Memory. “It must be nice to be a hero,” re marked the quiet man. “It’is for a minute,” replied Senator Badger. “After that the hero wonders at the world’s bad memory.”—Milwaukee Sentinel. Protection Against Rabbits. Australian farmers imported last year, as a protection against rabbits, 1.500 miles of wire netting, which costs $122 to $145 a mile. Oyster Shell Records. The British Museum contains books written on oyster shells, bricks, tiles, bones, ivory, lead, iron, sheepskin and palm leaves. srr em TCR gn ER Eat What You want of the food you need Kodol will digest it. You need a sufficient amount of good wholesome food and more than this you need to fully digest it. ~ Else you can’t gain strength, nor can you strengthen your stomach if it is weak. You must eat in order to liveand maintain strength. You must not diet, because the body requires that you eat a suffic- ient amount of food regularly. But this food must be digested, and it must be digested thoroughly. When the stomach can’t do it, ‘you must take something that will help the stomach. The proper way to do is to eat what you want, and let Kodol di- gest the food. Nothing else can do this. When the stomach is weak it needs help; you must help it by giving it rest, and Kodol will do that.
