SHE KILLED HER KEEPER Attempt to Separate Lioness From Her Young Ends in Horrible e - .Death, - She was a lioness, In spite of her being caught in the jungie where she. was born, and caged and carted around & strange country Hehind iron bars, she had become a mother. Two cubs nes tleéd against her hreasts, and the fierce passion of a wild maother's love guarded them from man's approach. It was In Woodbury, N. J., they trted.to separate her from them, says Our Dumb Animals. - She flung hersclf against the door of the compartment they hid put between her and her children, seized the “keeper by the neck and crushed him to death. ’Amu,-k_gel DY A score of attendants with irdn bars, tent stakes, hooks and elubs, she finully broke from her cage, escaping into the crowd, til, riddled with bullets, she dropped and died. Why shoalin't she have killed her keeper? It was the natural thing to do. Generally, after one of these outhreaks of anger when the last strand in the cord of patience snaps, the caged lion is again beaten and cowed into submission, and the keeper continnes to hold his prisoner In restraint through fear. Not often ‘does the strength of the caged eaptive triumph over the cunning and the cruelty of man. e A friend writes us: “I lack eloquence to exjiress adequately -my sympathy as well as my admiration for the magnificent: maternal counraze of the poor lioness, that, though righiled with bullets, still fought to her last gasp for her little ones. : 4 . “The pity is our small and defense less animals have not the size and strength of a lioness when croelties are practiced upon them, in order that they can perform for the laughter of Anhuman humanity.” R ~ Some day an enlightened public conscience will put an end to the cruel‘ties of the circus ana the zoo with their imprisoned victims doomed to that eternal pacing back and forth ‘that sickens thom atavery bu-

When Scot Meets Scot. The following Scotch tale is one of President Wilson’s favorites: A Scotch man was strolling through the mar ket place in Glasgow one day and close at his heels followed his faithful collie. Attracted by a fine display of shell and other fish,-the Scot stopped to admire, perhaps to purchase. The dog stood by, gently wagging its tail while its master engaged the fishmonger in conversation. Unfortunately for the beastie, its tail dropped for a molobsters. Instantly one of the largest lobsters snapped its claws on the tail, and the' surprised collle dashed off RS R

though dashed violently from side to side. The . fishmonger for a moment was speechless with indignation; then, turning te his prospective customer, he bawled: “Mon! mon! whustle to yer dog. whustle to yer dog!” “Hoot, mon,” retui ned the othier complacently, “whustle to yer lobster!” : Her Eyes to Blame. ~ Some.time ago I had my éyes tested, belladonna being dropped in them to enlarge the pupils. The eye doctor assured me I'd be able to see perfectly provided with a palr of dark glasses. My friend, who was with me, said she wasn't so sure about it. On leaving the doctor's office we bhoarded a crowded car, my friend going to the front and leaving me to take a vacant seat. in the rear. All of a sudden 1 could see hardly . anything, and in sitting down -1 sat on a young man's lap. I quickly removed to the vacant seat beside him amid the titters and laughing of a group of college boys standing in the back entry. My only relief was in the black giasses I wore, for I knew no one would know me agaln without them. ' ‘ :

Not an Il Wind. g Six bushels of apples for 50 cents. ~_ “Cheap enough.” says John Robbins, local real estate dealer, who is telling his friends how- he made the exchange. : Last Sunday he and his wife were eating .a country dinner with friends in Cumberland. The sfternoon was tranquil and a dainty little breeze was making it very comfortable. - “Kate,” says Robhins, addressing the lady of the house, “T'll just pay you 50 cents for all the apples that fall in your orchard this afterncon.” Within an hour Sunday's tempest broke into the orchard and when Robbins had cleancd aup, the back end of his car was heavier by six bushels of apples. ‘ : !

OIL SUPPLY WON'T LAST LONG Censumption Is Already Exceeding . Production, According to Last . v -.;Year's Figures. The future of petroleum supply of our country is being deservedly given an increasing amount of consideration. Last year our production was 844,000,000 barrels, against a consumption of 397,000,000 barrels. : ‘The consensus among leading geologists is that the total avaiable amount of oil underground in the United States is now very much less than is commonly supposed, and, taking into &ccouni the fact thit our consumption of ofl is Increasing at the rate of about 50,000,000 barrels each year the prac tical -exhaustion of our home supply is variously predicted by experts to be expected in fifteen or twenty years unless a very large production is obtained from foreign fields to supplement our own production. . -

For our future supply Mexico is generally regarded as the best hope, but Mexico has its limitations both in the quality of oil obtainable and in the vision of its existing government. ‘Hence Colombia and Venezuela, with their prolific seepages of highgrade petroleum and bhecause these countries have become generally rec--ognized among world oil operators as most desirable fields for exploration, may be fairly designated as the second oil reserve district of the United States, If not of the world.—Magazine of Wall Street. ; He Knew Donkeys.
