Animal Food.
Animal food does not appear to be
necessary to the sustenance of life.
Many animals (including some of the
human species; are strictly vegetarian.
The three principal constituents of the
human body that are derived from ani
mal food are fibrin, albumen and fat—
the first two forming muscle and
nerve, and the last, by a species of
tameless combustion, producing the
necessary temperature of 98 degrees,
without which the function of respira
tion would he Impeded or would alto
gether cease. But it Is clear that the
equivalents of these are all to be found

The Flight ef Birds.
To the average observer of the Bight
of birds everything is deceptive. To
compare tbe flight of a large bird With
t .nialler one Is especially so. The
cormorant of tbe seacoast seems to
tc t alow flier, yet he does a mile in
coe minute and ten seconds. The hon
eybee seems (o travel like a ballet yot
K takes him two minutes to fly one
mile. The bumming bird does not fly

get away more rapidly than does the
mallard, but be does not do it—Bx

Guardians of the Wilda
The United States government main
tains a curious little force of police
men who do not patrol posts in tbe
cities or towns, but may well be called
the guardians of the wilderness, for it
h their business to look after vast
foreats where few human beings live.
It may seem odd that it is necessary
to have nature's police to go here and
there In tbe forests and amid tha
mountains, but it is very necessary in
order to protect one of the great re
sources of America. Some of these
rangers of tbe wild have "beata" so
extensive that one man may be the
sole protector of a miniature empire,
comprising 200,000 acres of primeval

Mounting a Horse.
"Mount your horse on the left side,"
aald tbe riding school teacher.
"Why? What difference does it
•nuke?" aald the pupil.
"It's the rule."
"®°t why should It be the rule?"
Because in the past horsemen wore
hwotds. They wore them on the left
hip; hence had they mounted on the
tight side the sword would have got in
the tray. So they mounted on the left,
and we still mount on the left Horses

get up from the right you are liable to
be kicked."

Rudysri Kipling as a Preacher.
On one occasion Kipling proved him
self a capital preacher. He was cross
ing the Pacific on an Empress liner
when a seaman died, leaving a widow
•nd a large family. On the ship's no
tice board next day there appeared the
announcement: "9 p. m.—Sermon by a
layman." At the appointed time a cari
ous crowd discovered Kipling standing
on an improvised platform, from which
he preached a fifteen minutes' sermon.
How eloquent it was may be gathered
from the result—a collection for the
widow of over £70 from a congregation
of fewer than 200.

The Runlo writings.
In the Scandinavian land*—Sweden,
Denmark and Norway—thousands of
inscriptions have been found in tbe
ancient characters of the heathen
northmcb, and it to these that am
known aa the "Runee" or "Runic Writ
ings." Similar records are scattered
over other parts of Europe, but it is
largely In 8candinav!a that they am
found. Learned opinion Is still in
doubt aa to the origin of tbeee writ
ings. For a loag time supposed to be
of Phoenician origin, it Is now quite
extensively agreed that tbe Rune*
must have been derived about the
sixth century B. C. from an early
form of the Greek which was employ
ed by tbe Greek traders around the

When John Taylor Gilman, a mem

which chiefly constituted Saratoga tn
its early history, be was accompanied
one day on a hunting ramble by a
young son of tbe woodsman with
whom be boarded. When they return
ed to tbe cabin tbe boy enthusiastical
ly shouted. "Oh, ms. we've found a
new spring!"
"Who found It?" be was asked.
Turning to tbe distinguished law
maker. tbe little fellow admiringly ex
claimed, "Why, the congress!"
And to this day tbe name has clung
to one of the most celebrated of tbe
springs which made tbe place a sani
