CAN TELL COMING WEATHER

Almost Universal Belief That Tabby Has Foreknowledge of Any : Approaching Changes. : “Cats have the reputation,” says Dunwoody, according to the Detroit News, “of being especially weatherwise, an old netion which has given rise to a most extensive folklore. It is almost universally believed that good weather may be expected when theé cat washes herself, but bad when she licks her coat against the grain, or washes herself over the ears, or sits with her tail to the fire. = = “As, too, the cat is supposed not only te have knowledge of the state of the weather, but a certain share in the arrangement of {it, it is considered by sailors most unwise to provoke a cat. Hence they do not much like to have a cat on board at all, and when one happens to be more frisky than usual they quote a ~saying that the cat has a gale of wind in her tail. A charm often resorted to for raising a storm is to throw a cat overboard; but, according to the HMungarian proverb, as a cat does mot die in the water, its paws disturb the surface—hence the flaws on the surface of the water are called ‘cat’s paws.’ In the same way, also, a large flurry in the water is called a ‘cat’s skin’; and in some parts of England a popular name for the stormy northwest wind is the ‘cat’s nose.'”

EXCELLENT MOTTO TO ADOPT

David Crockett’s Advice “First Be Sure You’re Right, Then Go Ahead,” Always Good. b David (Orockett was the author of the famous motto, “Be sure you are right, then go ahead.” It is said to have first aﬂ%)eared in print {n Crockett’s “Autoblography,” ' published in 1834—appearing on the title page in the following form, says the Detroit News: 1 io:.\'& this rule for others when I'm Be always sure you're right—then go ahead.” : 5 ~ The statement has been made that “Crockett wrote this highly entertaining history of his own life . . . full of blunders in grammar and misspelled words,” although it had been revised and corrected by his more scholarly friends, “but the Britannica speaks of it as ‘a so-called autobiography,” which l;f very probably dic tated or at least authorized published in 1884. A work purporting to be a continuation of this autoblography and entitled ‘Colonel Crockett's Exploits and Adventures in Texas' is undoubtedly spurious.” - : ~John Bartlett, in his “Familiar Quotations,” describes “Be sure you are right, then go ahead” as “the motto of David Crockett in the War gf 1812

When Mammoths Roamed the Land. j ‘Mastodons and woolly mammoths were once as thick in New York as bison were on the western plains a century ago, according to Dr. Sherman C. Bishop, zoologist of the'state museum. Although the mammoths were ‘more closely related to the elephants, ‘the only surviving members of the family, they were the first to become extinct and probably passed off the scene while the mastodons were still thriving. Skeletons of mastodons, more or less complete, and some of them suit- - able for museum mounting, have been found in about 100 localities in the state, the last one at Temple hill, ‘Orange county, in 1921. The first was found in Columbia county, not far from Albany, in 1705. These huge mammals are belleved to have flourished about the end of the last glacial period, some 20,000 years ago. Thelir skeletons are found generally In. the .marsh lands of those early days’

“How yo’ feelin’ now, Sam?' questioned his wife, entering the hospital ward nervously. “Liza, I'se a sick man,” moaned the patient. ‘“De: doctors says I's got berkolosis.” G “Dat’'s all right, Sam; well take keer of yo’ an‘é get rid of dat berkolosis.” The following day, however, when his wife returned SBam was more deJected than ever. - “"Tain't no use, Liza; no use. I ain’t never gwine git well. De doctors say dis heah mornin’ I got two berkolosis” . o o /Henry Hudeon. _ . Charles Barnard, an authority on the subject, says that the time and place of the birth of Henry Hudson appear to be lost. “We only know,” he says, “that he had earned, perhaps by the time he was forty, sufficient reputation ‘as a bold and skillful navigator to be placed in command of the ship Half Moon of Amsterdam. Barly in 1609 heé. made a contract with a party of Dutch merchants to act as captain” of their private exploring expedition, and in the written agreement between them he was described as ‘Henry Hudson, Englixshman.’” .

ERROR THAT WAS PITIFUL

Little Wife Meant Well, but Dyed Hair Almost Meant Death of : Her Husband’s Love. He bad gray hair and his wife wag a little blonde, bobbed-hair person whe looked scarcely mere than a child. Again and again they were taken for father and daughter. , She let bher hair grow and then she had it dyed gray. Her husband was horrified. Somehow his love seemed te have grown less, i “I always used to think it hurt him awfully when I was taken for his daughter,” the little woman told the Woman. “But it seems he loved feeling that this young thing was the woman who had fallen for him. I'm going to do all I can about having the dye bleached out. You see, I've bobbed my bair again—and as the new yellow hairs grow in his love seems to be coming back again. It's so hard to tell,” she ended. “I felt I was doing something so wonderful fer him and it almost broke his heart!”—New York Sun. .

GOT THE MESSAGE TWISTED

Carelessncss of Telegraph Operator _‘Made a Mixup of a Somewhat. ' Amusing Character. ~:An inspector of rallway property whose duties had taken him to Bridgeport, Conn., discovered that the foundation under the local freighthouse needed repairs. Without delay he filed this dispatch to the New York effice: ' “Foundation under freighthougse at Bridgeport unsafe—rush men at once.” ' In sending the message the operator on the New York wire apparently did not space the letters properly in the word “foundation” and also pressed too long to form the letter “t": for this was the message received in New York: o ; “Found a lion under freighthouse at Bridgeport unsafe—rush men at once.” The inspector was astonished a few hours later to see a special work train come into the yard with a flat car containing a ‘large animal cage and also ten men expecting to have an exciting time catching a lion that they supposed had escaped from some passIng circus.—Youth’s Cempaniona,

Reader Has One Guess.

Uncle John was an ardent supporter of the lecal football club. As a respected follower of the team he had his own private niche. Aunt Martha, long puzzied at his regular absence from home on Saturday afternoons, declded to investigate. . On the following Saturday Uncle John did not -turm up in the stand alone, Aunt Martha was with him. “John,” she asked, soon after the game started, “what are these elevonl fools in white doing?” | “They are trying to put that bit of -leather between those two posts there, my dear,” he replied. : : There was a short silence. : “Ard what are those eleven other fools in red doing?’ was her -next questfon. . : “They are trying te prevent the other fellows from putting the ball between the posts, my dear.” = - Another silence. _ “And what are these other 20,000 fools doing?’ was her next question. . “They are all enjoying themselves except one, dear.”—London Answers.

PLANT TREE IN RIGHT PLACE

Mueh of Natural Beauty May Be Lost if Proper Spot Has Net ) Been Selected. . It is a beautiful thing to plant a tree, but it is doubly beautiful to plant the right tree in the right place. . The deed loses half of its beauty when a tree is placed where it does not belong, and where it will be impoasible for it to add to the joy and comfort of those who may be near it in future years. A tree placed in a location where it will be in the way, and where it cannot-develop in accordance with its natural tendencies, is doomed to be a failure. The same is-likely to be true of the tree that is planted without thought as to the variety that is best suited to the situation. It is the tree planting that involves thought and judgment that is the real blessing to humanity. W : The beautiful thing in the planting of the tree is the attitude of mind of ‘the ene who does it. Those who are to receive thé benefits’' from the act appear long after the work is done; ‘those who do the work are. seldom di rectly rewarded for the labor. When ‘2 person plants a tree, he is contrib uting to the pleasure of generations to come, and if he plants the right"tree in the right place he bestows a blessing upon ‘others in the most unselfish "manner. If, on the other hand, the wrong tree is planted, the future generations cannot reap the full benefit of the work done years before by the well-meaning but uninformed tree planter, and the deed as measured by results becomes less beautiful. —lllinois Arbor Day Bulletin.

OWES SPEECH TO WIRELESS

Young English Woman, Dumb From ' Birth, Said to Have Become Pormal After Treatment. - A jyoung woman, deaf and dumb from birth, the first patient to undergo. treatment by a new_ wireless invention, articulated .several words in the presence of a crowded audience at-the Royal Medical college, Epsom, England. " ) Wireless, having brought hearing to the deaf, is now bringing speech ‘to the dumb. : ' This latest wonder is made possible by the inventlon of Mr. J. W. Theobald, a Sunbury garage owner, and a medical friend, Dr. Frank Thompsan. The dumb patient puts on ear receivers, and receives a lesson in phoneties ‘with the sounds magnified till they are deafening to normal ears, = Dr. Thompson prophesies that his first patient will soon be able to converse freely. A curious unexpected result has been that her deafness is also tending to disappear. - :

Moliten Lava Welds Volcanoes.

. George Gillman read a paper before the QGeographical society descriptive of an ascent a year ago.of Kilimanjaro, ‘which he alluded te as Africa’s highest mountain. The party which he led were the first to ascend after the mountain had become British territory. From wherever across the surrounding steppes one approached the {solated mountgin mass two outstanding features impressed themselves at once—the tremendous ' size, coupled with great height, and the almost incredible contrast between the tropical half desert below and the alpine desert above. Structurally, Kilimanjare consisted of three single strato-volca-noes, each of which'had had its own _origin and history. Through ‘mutual interbedding of the laval flows, however, all three had grown into one solid complex strato-volcano. Fighting Insect Pests. A new method of control of “scrowworms,”, “wireworms” and sod web worms which attack tobacco and sime {lar crops has been discovered by the tobacco insect laboratory of the United States Department of Agriculture. It has been found that these worms are very greatly attracted to nitrobenzine, and by flavoring poison with this “shemical a mortality of from 80 to 90 per cent of the larvae in heavily infested flelds is produced. These larvae - are ‘'very important pests of tobacco and a large variety of other crops, and up to this time fall plowing and other indirect methods were the only known _ways of combating them. 0
