HISTORY OF SHEEP. A«»orlafrd With Mankind From the Earliest Known Dn>«. Os all domesticated animals the sheep baa from time immemorial been ■Met closely associated with mankind, writes R. Henry Rew in Outtnx. An •endite author sixty years ago. havint laboriously collated an assortment of allusions to sheep made by sacred and profane writers, concluded that “’the history of these animals is so Interwoven with the history of man that they never existed in a wild state at all. Biblical history from the time of Abel is full of allusions to the flocks which formed the chief possessions of the Jewish people and their neighbors. The spoils of war and the tribute of vassal kings largely consisted of sheep. Thus we read that Mesha. king of Moab, was a sheep master and rendered onto the king of Israel a hundred thousand lambs and a hundred thousand rams with tl.e wool. Mases nftcr his victory over the Midianites obtained as loot no less than 675.000 sheep, and long before the Christian era sheep were cultivated in western Europe. Spain und Italy possessed them from ro unknown period, although long after Rome was founded the inhabitants had »>ot learned to sheer the fleece, and un ttl the time of Pliny the practice of plucking it from the skin was not wholly abandoned, so long that the bumble nlwphcnls of Syria prei-eded in their knowledge of necessary arts the future evuquerors of their country. A Tnla of “Tipping;.’* To tip or not to tip the person who tut does his or her duty is it question yecalling an incident set down in Wai lioie'a ■•Remlnlsceucee" of how a king once unwillingly encourag<*d the cue torn "This is n strange country." com>«untcl George I. 'The tirst mornlug sifter my arrival nt St. James I looked «>nt of the window and snw a park with walls. < ».,al. etc., which they told sue were mine. The next day Lord e’hetwyud. the ranger of my park, sent me a brace of enrp out of my canal. Sind I was told that I must give 5 guln*ti« to Lord Chetwynd's servant for bringing me my own carp out of my pwn canal in my own park!’* All the iiohd people the world has j.rotlnccil have lie'll workers Still, there are a few who do not fielleve Work Is respectable.--Atchison Globe.
