'The tail of a dog, says the proressor, is, as we all know, an index of his psychological state; he raises und wags it, under the impression of joy, lowers it when afflicted and trails it between his legs when frightened. Why, then; may we not believe that dogs have a caudal language, and that the various movements of the tail form a method of communication between them? ' . The professor points out that among -cattle and beasts of burden the tail is a weapon of defense against inseects which, in the undomesticated state of these animals, may often have meant Ele saving of their lives. He says that in the early struggle for existence in cattledom and horsedom the question of survival of the fittest was purely a matter of which had the strongesi. tail. This resulted in the development of the muscles of the cow and horse to a remarkable degree. When a horse is struck on the back ‘'with a whip it switches the spot with its tail. The horse knows it is a whip and not an insect, but the reflex muscles of its tail are so highly developed that it instinctively switches before the horse has time to telegraph to his brain and put in a stop order. A cow finds it less fatiguing to keep up a perpetual side.to side motion of its tail than to indulge in the nervous, energetic one which the horse upon occasion employs. ¢

STRENUOUS KIND OF SPO

Angiing With Rod and Line for Swo . fish Can Be Guaranteed.to |~ Furnish Thrills, Swordfishing for broadbill swor with rod and reel no doubt heads thie list of the most strenuous kinds of angling. This remarkable form sport has been practiced for a number of years on the Pacific coast in the neighborhood of Santa Catalina island and to a less extent, and more recently, along our own Atlantic seaboard. In many respects it is the most fascinating of all forms of fishing, C. K, Stillman writes in the Health Builder. There is considerable difficulty in finding the prospective victims as they swim or float solitary near the surface of the sea, and more yet when found In persuading them to bite. Once hooked, the swordfish is a very resourceful antagonist and hard to keep on the line. The angler never knows what is going to happen next and is never entirely free from apprehension that the fish may attack his boat. No fishing is more productive of super thrills and of grievous disap-:% pointments. To the swordfish angler the landing of one fish is a season's: triumph. Many have gone out year: after year for swordfish without suec-: cess, but they keep on doggedly in the’ knowledge that a lucky turn of events may at any moment bring achievement. . : o

PERIOD WHEN WOMEN RULED

By Far the More Important Sex in Early Days of the World, Is Re- ’ cent Statement. Recent research, by some FKrench professors, into the ways of women of 2 hundred thousand years ago, have given an unexpected jolt to preconceived ideas. Now the professors declare that woman, in the ‘days of our cave-dwelling ancestors, was regarded as of the more important sex. Men held a- secondary position, tolerated for the sake of the food and skins provided. Women ruled, and were the inventors of the earliest arts' and scienced. It was the woman’s ingenuity which devised snares for animals and made plans for storing food against times of scarcity. Women taught ways of making clothing from skins of animals, and by the efforts of their brains improved the lot of all the human race. Woman’s cunning and wit were the outcome of her lack of physical strength, which obliged her to resort to strategy rather than force. On the ‘whole, the prehistoric woman apparently held the same position and ruled man in the same manner that she does today, according to these gentlemen, who may however have a different opinion for us tomorrow, ’

Love of Trees.

Love of trees is almost.a religion fo the Jugo-Slav peasant. The new king-, dom of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes boasts some of the oldest forests in the world. During the Middle ages wood from the provinces east of the Adriatic was exported to Venice, where, it was made Into ships, and furniture, and cablnets—some of the far-famed works of art that hyve survived the early renaissance. v - One of the native plcturesque customs deals with the choosing of a tree for a yule log at Christmas time, says the Detroit News. Without this yule log, or “badnjak,” as it i 8 known in Clovenia, no' Christnias Is . complete and no family is too poor to have one. The first chip that flies when the tree is being felled is placed in the milk, the beehive, the hen roost, anywhere that the housewife especidlly desires prosperity. In some regions the chips of the badnjak are all gathered up and presented to members of the family and to the animals of the farm. President Tyler's Love Affairss John Tyler, tenth President of the United States, was married twice, and in each case it was a marriage of affection. His first wife was Lititia Christian, daughter of Robert Christian, one of the best known men of Virginia, It might almost be called a boy and girl affair, but they were, married and lived happily together for 30 years. The second wife of the President was Julla Gardiner. She married ‘the President while he was still in office, and after his death went to Richmond, where she spent the remainder of her-life. £ ‘ Most,Ameﬂcan&regfrd}ng him in a superficial way—think of Tyler as one of the prosaic, matter-of-fact Presidents of the United States, yet in ‘the wooing of Miss Christian he gave proof that he possessed an ardent temperament—the temperament of a lovestricken and romantic young man,
