Monkey Failed as Jockey.
John Bright, the horse trainer, used
to own a monkey when he ran a
stable and the racing waj> on a cov
ered track. The monkey either had
the soul of a jockey or had aa an
tipathy to dogs, because when one
happened by he would drop on his
back and sit as tight as the deuce
tray. A greyhound came along and
the monkey took the mount In alarm,
the hound made for the infield, with
the rider well up on his withers, and
cleared the Liverpool eadlly. Then he
raced for a hurdle, but In clearing tt
the jockey fell, hit his head and
passed away.

Pei Woodchuck Good “Ratter.”
A pet woodchuck at the home of
Johnnie Hughes of Cascade. Pa.,
catches mice and rats with the suc
cess and agility of a cat. It was its
association with a cat that taught the
chuck to become a “ratter." The eye
of the animal and its scent appear to
be more acute than even a cat’s, it
will He for half an hour at a rat
hole and wait for the rat to appear
It is generally sure death to the rat
when the chuck makes a dive.
Gravitation.
The great Newton himself did not
pretend to know what gravitation is.
He only knew that it existed and he
was able to prove how It acted, but
what it was in and of Itself he never
knew. Gravitation is a law of nature,
or a force acting In accordance with
a law of nature, and that Is all that
the wisest man Is able to say about
It —unless he Is prepared to talk non
sense. It is like electricity. We know
perfectly well what electlcity itself
does, but what electricity Itself Is baf
fles the prefoundest of scientists and
philosophers.
Show Spread of Education.
In fcdlnburgh, Scotland, a few days
since, there was presented a Masque
of learning, or a pageant of education
through the ages. It was organized by
Prof. Patrick Geddes and his col
leagues in celebration of the seml-jubi
lee of the university hall or residence.
The scheme of the pageant comprised
a presentation of the culture aspects
of all the great civilizations—eastern
and western, ancient and modern;
from the Egyptian, Indian and Chi
nese systems, through the Greek and
Roman, Celtic and Mediaeval, to the
Renaissance and encyclopaedic epochs,
and the ideal union of city and uni
versity.
Motor Bookcase.
Hagerstown's public library, a coun
ty Institution, is putting the automo
bile to what Is perhaps thq newest
use to which the motor car has been
put—delivering books from door to
door In rural communities from
shelves arranged on each side of the
vehicle. It is said that this is the
only "motor bookcase" owned by any
public library in the world. The sys
tem was Introduced by Miss Mary b.
Titcomb, the librarian, several years
ago. The horse drawn vehicle orig
inally used was wrecked in a collision
with a railroad train.—Hagerstown

Expensive Dowries In India.
The custom of extorting dowries
has grown Into the very fabric of the
social life, and is a standing disgrace
to the Bengali community, which has
no justification to plead or apology
to offer. The practice has now as
sumed alarming proportions of parents
of boys extorting costly dowrie r as a
condition of marrying their 30ns.
The marriage of a daughter among
Bengalis has become an expensive af
fair, and the amount in cash demanded
by the father or guardian of die boy,
and paid by the father or guardian of
th« bride varies with the education
attainments of the bridegroom. The
Indian Daily News published a few
days ago a piteous appeal from re
spectable Hindu parents of dowerless
ia.ugh.tere.—lndian Nation.

“Would you Ilk® to ®ee the kitchen?**
the wife Inquired. “It is very small
and very dirty." “Indeed, w® should,”
I replied, for rarely had I been in a
truly Japanese kitchen. The little
wife was half right—lt was very small,
being four by eight feet, but it was
not very dirty. In fact it was spot
lessly clean. There was no range and
no oven. In their place were two
plaster contrivances ot one hole each
Into which were poked short pieces of
wood or charcoal and on top of which
were placed the pots and pans. In a
small cupboard containing a few
shelves and a couple of drawers were
the cups, bowls, chopsticks and trays
used for Serving the meals and the
few pots, pans, spoons and knives for
cooking and preparing the food. There
were no chairs or table, as the Japan
ese sit on their heels when doing kit
chen work. The maid, squatting- be
for one fl re-pot, was watching the rice
boiling for the evening meal. When
the fire flagged she brightened it by
blowing through a bamboo tube or fan
ning it, and all the while she fed it
with faggots about as large as a lead
pencil.—Exchange.
Good piano Playing,
In a very Interesting article on piano
Jaylng in the Woman’s Home Com
panion the author reports as follows
the views of Leschetlzky, the greatest
teacher of piano In the world: “When
I was studying with the great master
he pointed out to me the importance
of musical expression tn the following
way: He called my attention to the
fact that one person, for Instance, may
tell you a tale in such a way that you
find little in it that Is interesting,
whereas another person may tell you
the same story tn such a manner that
you follow every word with the keen
est attention. The secret of interest
Hee not only in the story, but very
especially In the voice, the tone, the
expression—In the manner of telling.
All this is interpretation. A careless
or dull piano student may play even
some exquisite melody In such a way
that It does not attract you at all,
whereas an artist’s playing of it maj’
bring the tears to your eyes.’’
