Advancing Civilization.
If you do not believe that the lover
nnimals have done their share in pro
moting civilization, read a very inter
esting article on "The Economic \ nine
of Animals," by Charles Frederick
Holder, in the Popular Scit nee Mot thly.
in which the following paragraph ap
pears: "The influence which the lower
animals have had upon mankind has
never been appreciated; had it been
they would have received more consid
eration at our hands. They not only
provide us with food, raiment and a vast
array of industries, but they have been
factors in the physical and intellectual
development of mankind. The beauty
of the birds and insects, the splendid
coloring of the fishes and reptiles, the
quiet harmonies of nature and the prob
lems they suggest have insensibly had
a refining effect and aided in the evolu
tion of the higher and esthetic senses.
In a word, the so-called lower animals !
have beeu important factors in produc
ing the high civilization which marks
the Caucasian of to-day." And now the
ladies who wear in their hats the bodies
of birds slaughtered for their beautiful
plumage can plead good scientific au
thority for the claim that they are thus 1
advancing "high civilization."
Less than two years ago a man and j
his wife in Baltimore borrowed SSO froni >
a loan company, giving their household
goods as security, and a number of in- j
terest notes which obliged them to pay 1
as interest S2B for every six month.
They have already paid $85.50 itn in- j
terest, but as they still owe $49.50 in
terest, as well as principal; the creditor ;
threatened toseize the furniture.. There- j
upon the hopeless debtor invoked the |
courts for some redress:, but the judge j
was compelled to say that he could do !
nothing. And in order to have their
furniture they will have to pay back the
original SSO and $135 for two years' use
of it. And this is permitted by our laws.
Poultry is high in Arizona nnd feed
is cheap in the Mexican state of Sonora.
These two facts set the wheels in a
lively Yankee's head ut work, with the
result that there is now a big chicken
ianch down on the international boun
dary line, some miles west of Xogules.
one-half of which is in the republic of
the United States and the other half in
the republic of Mexico. At feeding
time the Yankee drives his egg pro
ducers into Mexico, and when they have
had their evening meal they come back
across the line and go to roost under
the stprs and stripes.
A curious outcome of the "carnival"
festivals that are being held in so man;
western towns is the heartburning
caused bj* the selection of "queerus."
Several otherwise eligible young wom
en who were at first chosen were after
ward rejected because they worked for
their living. So it seems that the. great
democratic west is guilty of the very
thing which it has been criticising tlu
"effete east" for doing, a fact which
shows that there is a good deal of hu
man nature in every part of the country.

About the house, from room to room.

And willful ways;

Scarce any days.

To wipe her tears.

To give them wings.

..VOOOCOC-OOCOOO-OOC-OOOOOOOOON/
WE DIDN'T like it at all at school.
They say boys never like school,
| anyhow. Maybe that's so, and maybe it
isn't. All 1 know is, we diii't like it.
Why? Well, 1 can hardly tell you.
There was plenty to eat —such as it was
—and we. didn't have to study over
liard, but then, you see, it was school,
and that's all about it!
Watched all the time, you know, tak
ing walks two by two, trunks gone over
every now and then, and the things you
like must be taken away—especially
books and papers. Some of us had
taken books and papers to school —
Cooper's and Marryatt's novels, and
story papers, no end. They took them
all away as soon as they found them;
but we'd had time to read them ull first,
and pretty well learn them by heart,
too.
We were mad enough when we found
that they were all gone, you'd better
believe! We knew t here was no use ask
ing for them back, so we didn't do it,
but we held an indignation meeting in
i stead.
! There was lots of talk and fellows say
; ing what they would like to do, but
when we came down to the point, we
couldn't see but one thing to be done,
j and that was to run away.
Of course, we meant to go to sea.
; Dedhara was not a seaport town, and
j we'd have to walk 30 miles to find any
' sea to go to, but we thought that would
be easy enough. Only we ought to get
some provisions together first, and we
| had to wait a bit for that,
i There was one little chap that didn't
| seem, much set up at the idea—Ralph
| Way land liis name was. He didn't want
j ,o go—up and said lie liked the school
i well enough, nnd didn't like the sea at
! all. Said he'd been on it once, and lit
made him awful seasick.
But we told him we wouldn't leave
him behind, for they'd be sure to wormi
out of him where we'd gone. We told
him he'd be a sneak if be didn't go, after
hearing our plans and all. We shamed
him so that at last he said he'd start
with us. but lie wouldn't go to sea, he'd
go home. So we said that would do,
only we called him a coward. He ;
laughed, nnd said maybe he was; he was j
afraid of being seasick, anyway.
We waited a long while, before a good !
lime came. At last we'd got quite a lot
of things together that we'd saved from
our meals—bread and cheese and meat
and such. To be sure, the bread was
pretty dry and crumbly, and the cheese
hard, and the meat—well, we should
have made on awful row about eating
it at table, but we thought when we got
hungry we shouldn't mind it—much.
Then there eanie a night when the
principal and most of the teachers were
to go to a party in the town, nnd we
thought that would be the best time to
We didn't have very hard work to get
Off. So many of the teachers were
away that the rest couldn't-keep a very
strict watch. There were six of us, and
first one and then another slipped away,
till Ralph and I were left.
".Vow's our time, Ralph," I said, at
last.
And Ralph got up with a kind of sigh
and came along.
"I'm not going to sea with you, Jerry,
you know." said Ralph, when we were
safe outside. /'l'm only just going—
Hello!" exclaimed he, stopping short
all of a sudden. "What's that?"
We wore just passing the house of the
principal. 11 stood quite near the school
building; but the trees were so thick
ill around it that, a little way off, 3011
couldn't see it at all.
Ralph was staring up at the windows
-o hard that 1 stared too; but I didn't
see much—only lights moving about up
stairs, and now and then a shadow pass
ing between them and the window.
"Come along. Ralph," I said. "It's
only the servants having a frolic while
their masters and mistress are away.
"They don't, keep any servants," said
Ralph, in n kind of whisper. "Mrs.
Minor's a New England woman, and
-he dors her own work. Besides, Jerry,
1 saw the shadow of a man cross the win
dow. What does it mean?"
Mean? Well, I felt sort of cold; but I
put on a big air. and replied:
"I don't know what it means, Ralph;
but it's none of our business, anyhow.
Come along. We're to meet the fellows
at Cross! roe's Oak, you know, and we
haven't any more than time."
"The other fellows may go," said
Ralph. He spoke low. and his face had
1 queer, set sort of look', as the light
hone 011 it. "I'm going to see what
this moans before I stir another step
Inrther. Will ,vou come, Jerry?"
We had got to the front steps by this
time, and Ralph was trying the door,
which Hew open at onee.
Somehow I didn't quite like it. Run
nine a" ny to sen was one thing, but
J.uutir.g burglars in u dark house was
(mother, and I didn't know what to d>.
I had a bright thought in a minute, I
though.
"I'll tell you what, Ralph," I said. ;
"Better go tell Mr. Minor, lle'll know ;
what to do about it far better than we
would."
Ralph hesitated just a moment; then
he said:
"He's a mile off and more. By the
time he got here the burglars would be 1
gone with all their booty. Maybe we
can scare them off. It's worth trying,
anyhow."
I felt ashamed when I thought that
this was the little chap we'd all called a
coward. So I never said a word, but fol
lowed him.
It was all dark and quiet downstairs t
—and upstairs, too, as far as we could
' see—at first.
"I say, Ralph," I whispered. ;
"Wouldn't it be a jolly go if that was
Mi. and Mrs. Minor come home early
end gone to bed? What fools we'd
feel!"
"With their front door unfastened?"
said Ralph.
Then he didn't say any more, nor I
either, for a door opened just in front ;
of us, and there stood a man.
The man hadn't any light, but we !
could see him well enough to be sure |
that it was not Mr. Minor—nor Mrs.
Minor, either, for that, matter.
What did we do? I'll tell you what '
I did. if you'll never, never, never tell, j
I'd never have believed it of myself be- ■
fore, but I'd believe most anything <
now. T just gave one yell and scooted
downstairs, through the hall, and out I
of the door, and ran like mad through
the village, shouting "Fire!" and
"Help!" and "Murder!" and "Thieves!"
till the way.
People turned out lively, you'd better j
believe, and, as soon as they could stop j
me, T told them what the matter was. \
So, then, some ran for the police and ,
some for Mr. Minor, and some got clubs ;
nnd pitchforks, and lanterns and guns,
and came back with me.
1 was ashamed enough of myself by !
that time, and began to wonder what
had become of Ralph.
The house was all dark when we got
back to it, and the frontdoor wide open,
just as I'd left it. The first thing we
did was to stumble over something soft. |
When they turned on the lantern, there '
lay Ralph, poor little chap! all tumbled I
down in a heap, with a big cut. on his |
forehead. Tie opened his eyes, and they j
found he wasn't very badly hurt, so j
they carried him in and laid him on I
the sitting-room sofa. I and one of the !
tnen stayed to take care of him, and the
lest went on.
Would you believe it? Not a thing
was gone. There were bundles and j
packages of all shapes and sorts — '
pretty near all the silver and jewelry '
in the house, and Mrs. Minor's silk
dresses and Mr. Minor's winter over
coat —all ready to take away.
The burglars had been so scared at !
the sight, of two scared boys, though,
that they'd just taken to their heels
and left all behind. That's what people
said; but, first, the burglar we met had
Hung his lantern at Ralph and knocked
him senseiess to the floor.
Of course we had to tell Mr. Minor
till about how we'd meant to run away
I NEVER SAID A WORD, BUT FOL
LOWED HIM.
—at least I had, for Ralph wasn't al
lowed to talk much. I told him nil—
how we'd bullied Ralph and everything.
He didn't say much; but when he
found the other boys were missing, of
course he put this und that together
and guessed it all.
They caught two of them that night.,
and cheap enough they looked when
they were marched back. I was glad
J wasn't one of them.
1 was gladder*yet when, along in the ;
next week, the other two came back of ;
themselves. If they weren't just the !
seediest, most sheepish-looking ens- j
turners you ever did see!
They'd been all the way to Gosport. i
and tried to get a berth on a ship, but j
'there wouldn't a captain look at them, j
All tliey spoke to justlaughed ,and told
them to go buck where they came from 1
nnd wait till they got more brains and j
Cliches. So they thought the best thing '
they could do was to take good advice;
but they had a pretty hard time of it, I
with no money and nothing to eat but j
what they could beg.
I suppose Mr. Minor thought that j
walk was punishment enough, for he I
didn't do anything to them. Besides.
Ralph begged for them; and, after what
Ralph had done and suffered for him,
be couldn't deny him anything.
So we all came off scot-free that time.
Whether we deserved it or not. Even j
the burglar did, for he never was J
rntiffht.
