BELGIUM CURETTING AN ELEPHANT. When the Big Beast Has His Hide Combed With a Rasp. Once in every four montks every captive elephant, to be in good form, should have removed from its hide the hard flesh which grows there and the accumulation of dirt' which becomes incrusted and looks like a part of its skin. It is that superfluous growth which, from observation and touch, gives the impression an elephant's hide is tough, whereas the skin natural ly is so sensitive that the bite of a fly, a mosquito or any other in sect is irritating to it. The process of curetting an ele- Ehant is tedious to the operator, for e must devote several hours a day to the task, having four men as as sistants to hold the elephant by ropes tied to its legs. The elephant does not take kindly to the treat ment. It is necessary that it be done to keep the elephant in good health by opening up the pores. As there is danger of the elephant under treatment taking cold, the operation never is done in winter. The hide first is wetted thor oughly with water, and an ordinary rasp is used for removing all cal lous growth and other hard surface substances, the rasp being dipped frequently in water to keep the skin moist and soft. When the op eration is over the elephant's skin looks gray and retains this color a long time. Often oil is rubbed into the skin, and the dark and natural color is obtained. In their native state, if there is a river near by, elephants bathe daily and after, leaving the water nib themselves against trees, which removes the dirt and give the skin a healthy appearance. Circus ele phants never are treated in that way, and as a result they live and die with the growth of callous skin and dirt upon them and always look as if their hides were as tough and as hard as iron, which, they are. Exchange. Diplomacy. One day a gentleman was holding a conversation with his "wife in the presence of their five-year-old son, and among other things mentioned was "diplomacy." "Pa," said the youngster when a break in the conversation allowed him to interfere, "what does diplo macy mean ?" "Diplomacy, my son," said the fa ther, "is this doing exactly the right thing at exactly the right moment." "Then I suppose I used diplo macy when I got out of the pantry yesterday, dad, did I ?" "What do you mean ?" was the re ply. "Why," said the son, "I got into the back yard with that meat pie just at the moment ma caught the cat in the pantry and told you to drown her for thieving." Pearson's Weekly. Yawning. Dr. Nageli of Tromso, Norway,, says that yawning is one of the best of all breathing exercises. Says the doctor: The act of yawning puts into play all the breathing muscles of the thorax and the neck, and con sequently it is a natural exercise, probably instituted by Providence lor your welfare. .Every good doc tor should therefore advise his friends to yawn largely and to make a practice of "stretching" at every opportunity. There's no better ex ercise for the throat or the chest, and one good gape mouthed yawn is worth a dozen breathing bouts. It is one of the best cures for nasal and thoracic catarrh. Therefore, gentle reader, yawn aesthetically, if you can. Yawn proudly, yawn boldly, because it is good for you. ? Once Was Enough. While seated on the top of the stagecoach with the driver during a trip from Silverton to Ouray years ago a young easterner became ex ceedingly nervous. As they were traveling along a hillside, with a ravine several hundred feet deep within a couple of feet of the road, the young tenderfoot, suddenly turning to the driver, asked, "Do people fall over here very often?" A broad grin spread over the driver's face as he rolled his wad of tobacco from one cheek to the other and, looking up, with a merry twin kle in his eye, exclaimed, "Naw; OIllv gxu ' STEPS IN. -Thorndyk in Baltimore American. SPURIOUS COIN A LURE. Psychology of Counterfeiting a Puzzle to the Authorities. "Like the fly which lights on pa per carefully smeared with molasses for his benefit, the man who lets his thoughts dwell upon 'queer money is caught hard and fast un less he gets tlfe idea out of his head as soon as it enters," said a secret service official. "It is fun ny, though, how the game attracts a man who is otherwise honest. The man who is attracted at first by the prospect of making money in this way argues that he is doing no wrong. "He simply "says to himself that he will make a few thousand dol lars of spurious money and then shove it out in a safe way. He ar gues with himself that the money will be accepted by every one and that it really is the same as the money stamped as legal tender by the government and only the gov ernment will lose. "He begins to read about coun terfeiting, and the more he reads the easier the thing seems. Ten to one he has a. taste for mechan ics, and any man with a simple knowledge of metals, if he has the proper dies, can turn out a pretty fair representation of a dollar or other silver coin. "Most of the old time counter feiters have gone out of business or are serving terms in peniten tiaries, and many of the spurious coins made at the present time are manufactured by men who are respected in the communities In which they live. "Counterfeiting bank notes is more difficult than making spurious coins, but after a man has been successful with silver pieces he takes up the other and, with study and perseverance, can turn out a few bills. However, these makers of 'bad' money never last long. They are run to earth sooner or later. Then comes their realiza tion of the crime they have been involved in. The government is a relentless enemy, and the punish ment for making spurious money is severe, but the wrongdoers never realize this until they" are fairly caught. ''Every man believes in his own heart that he is sharper and shrewder than his neighbor. When he reads stories of counterfeiters who flourished years ago he sees what blunders they made and how they came to be caught. "1 can do better than that fel low did, and those dub detectives could never have caught me in the trap they laid for him is the way the amateur counterfeiter muses. He figures it all out to his own sat isfaction, but he fails to give the men in Uncle Sam's service credit for any brains or originality of thought. He thinks that thev work the same way on every case J -til l 1 . . anu xnai au ne nas to ao is to ob serve the pitfalls that the other men fell into and be careful not to walk into them himself. "This point settled, the deluded victim of the get-rich-quick craze has only a few more steps to take. The first thing that he does gen erally is to manufacture some homemade dies of plaster of paris. They are crude molds of silver pieces, and so our deluded friend experiments a little by pouring pure lead into these casts, and, to his surprise and delight, he turns out. a few pieces of metal which bear a resemblance to money." Chicago Record-Herald. Got the First Blow. An Irish horse owner . whose horse had been prescribed for by a veterinary surgeon ran into the lat ter's office and, with tears in his eyes and his face the "picthur of bad luck," cried: "Oh, Dr. 'Moriarity, I'm poorly! The powdher's kilt me entoirely!" "The powder!" cried Dr. Moriar ty. "Why, I didn't tell you to take the powder. I told you to place it in a paper tube and put one end of it in the horse's mouth and blow hard." "Yes, sorr," said Pat. "I put the powdher in the chube, and I put the end of it in the horse's mouth, with the other end in my own"; but, begorra, he blew first 1" Documentary Proof Required.

Harper's Weekly. 1l arm and Garden BLACK KNOT IN PLUMS. More Light on the Failure of Plums In the East. F. C. Sears of the Massachusetts ag ricultural college writes as follows about; black knot in plums: I have been iaterested in looking through the college orchard recently to notice the comparative susceptibility of the different varieties and classes of plums to black knot and in comparing present indications with past experi ence along the same lines. The tree agent who sells plum trees which are warranted to be "knot TREE WITH BLACK KNOT. proof" is undoubtedly a nature fakir, but if he selects the right varieties among the Japanese he will come much nearer than usual to the truth. In two rows in the college orchard of twenty two trees each, one of Red June and the other of Burbank, I f ound in a reasonably long search not a single specimen of black knot. And last year their record was almost equally clean. On trees in adjoining rows of Engel hart and Bradshaw, however, knots are all too abundant, though not nearly so bad as last season. They would probably average half a dozen knots to the tree this season, while last year the same trees yielded a couple of bushels of knots from the two rows. While this is a little discouraging to the man who wants. to grow the domes tic plums, as everybody does who wants high quality, still it is surpris ing how little time is required to keep down this disease if it is taken in time and systematically handled. And it is equally surprising how badly a tree can be affected and still be recovered satisfactorily. A few years ago the writer undertook to revive some old trees which would ordinarily have been cut down and put on the brush heap. They were a mass of knots from top to bottom. We selected a time when the snow was on the ground so that the knots could be easily gathered up and cut out every vestige of the dis ease, though in some cases this left a pretty small proportion of the original tree. In removing a knot we cut at least six inches below it, so as to be sure and take out the roots of the dis ease. That year the trees made a big growth, often three or four feet, but a good many new knots also came out which were removed that autumn, the trees also receiving two thorough sprayings with bordeaux mixture dur ing the summer. The following two years we did near ly all our cutting in the summer and found it much more satisfactory in its results than cutting during the dor mant season. To begin with, as the knots were removed as" soon as they appeared we saved the crop of sum mer spores which would otherwise have spread the disease. Then, the knots being young and soft, we could fre quently shave them off and thus save the branch on which they grew. Last ly, when it became necessary to cut out a branch altogether, in getting rid of a knot, the tree, being still in growth, would at once fill in .the space thus made, so that by autumn it could hardly be seen. This work was done in a section where the black knot flourishes like the proverbial green bay tree, yet we found it by no means a serious matter to rid these trees of the disease and keep them reasonably free. Three cuttings during the summer, with an autumn clearing up (after the leaves were off) of the knots which had escaped thus far, combined with three application of bordeaux mixture, did the work. Our sprayings were applied one be fore the leaves opened, one after the blossoms fell and one about two weeks later. Lest some may think this a pret ty serious programme, I may say that the summer cutting the third season took just fc-ur and one-half hours for an' orchard of ninety trees. A MILITARY MARTYR. The Tragic Fate cf the Drummer of Castine. In 1779 the British built a fort, commanding the bay of Castine and the little village of Pentagoet and called it Fort George. It was constructed with four bastions, marking the four points of the compass, and with an elaborate labyrinth of cells far underground, where the only light that ever il luminated the moldy walls was that shed feebly by a sentry's lantern. In the hollow square formed by the bastions the gibbet was erected on which Ball and Elliott were hanged a few years later. Soon after the fort was finished it .was evacuated by the British, who did not again set foot within its frowning walls until September, 1814, when Gen eral Gasselin, with 3,&00 men, came sailing in from Halifax and again took the town after a half hearted defense. The invaders were not altogether unwelcome to the thrifty inhab itants of the Castine country, as they scattered the king's gold with a lavish hand and kept open port for the traders. But if they re warded generously they also pun ished severely, and when for the second time 'Fort George was evac uated the - following April the un derground cells were full of prison ers, many of whom were redcoats awaiting sentence for breaches of military discipline. All the prison ers were released on the morning of the evacuation except a drummer, who was confined in a cell at the ex treme end of the subterranean pas sage, and m the excitement of a hurried departure he was forgotten It must have been several hours before the silence, unbroken by the footfalls f the jailer or the songs and shouts of the other prisoners, made it plain to the doomed drum mer that the fort was deserted. His drum had been left with him, and, seizing the sticks, he began to beat upon it furiously in the hope that some loiterer above might hear and come to his rescue. How many hours or-how many days he drum med frantically away in the pitch darkness and gravelike silence of his living tomb can only be conjec tured, but villagers passing near heard the muffled sound of ruffle and reveille, tattoo, assembly, charge and retreat and the regular beat for columns to march by. The superstitious country people ascrib ed the drumming to supernatural cause and gave the fort a wide berth. The strokes, becoming faint er and fainter, soon ceased alto gether, and it was not until years afterward that the underground cells were accidentally explored and the skeleton of the drummer, still dressed in faded scarlet, was discov ered lying by his moldering drum. Long after the bastion walls crumbled and the siteof. the fort was almost obliterated with weeds and bushes the beating of a ghostly drum was said to haunt the place with its sound on each recurring loth of April, but as the surround ing wood was the home of hundreds of woodpeckers the mystery was easily explained. New xork Press He Went Up One. The teacher was giving a lesson in subtraction. It had taken the class some time to master the mys teries of addition, and in this rule she found them no less dull. Driv en to desperation by the stupidity oi their replies, she rashly promised three whole pennies to the child who save her the smartest answer. "Of course," she explained for the twentieth time, you can only subtract things of the same name. For instance, you can't take eight marbles from sixteen years or four horses from seven pence." A hand shot up at the back of the class, and the teacher broke off to inquire what was the matter. "Please, miss," squeaked a small boy's voice, "can't you take three pennies from one purse then?" Philadelphia Ledger, v Mary and the Kitten. Little Mary was playing with her pet kitten. The kitten scratched her, and she exclaimed, fYou is a darned old kitty!" Her mother told her she must never utter such a naughty word again and to be sure to impress it on her mind washed her mouth out with soap and water. The next day Mary was again playing with the kitten, and again trouble arose, when she was heard to remark : "You is just the same kind of a kitten you was yesterday I" Soothing. -"I wouldn't fidit. mv e-ood men !" said the peacemaker.

It Didn't Come In Just the Way It Had Been Planned. Her great-great-grandmother had been an actress ami practiced dra matic situations. The old lady had also practiced walking home when the company stranded. The histri onic talent had therefore come down to Clara de Vere in a legiti mate way. Graduation day was at hand, and he determined to take a dramatic advantage of the occasion. She studied and thought and planned, and at length she nit it. Paul Ross more, the clerk in the music store at $10 per week, would be there and have a front seat, and at the critical moment he would spring upon the 6tage and Her essay was announced at last, and she appeared. She was a vision in white. Never had she looked more lovely. Never had she seem ed to have more nerve not a halt nor ''a tremor as she came for ward: and faced that large and en thusiastic audience. In a loud, clear voice she began. In a voice without a sign of timidity in it she read her essay almost to the last line, and then she wavered, stum bled, lost her pres'ence of mind and seemed about to faint. The audience blegan to applaud to encourage her, but it was too late. She swayed, tottered about and threw her Paul his cue and was about to sink to the floor when a man sprang upon the stage and clasped her in his strong arms and whispered in her ear to be brave. It was not her Paul. He was still sitting there like a bump on a log, He was a one horse grocer named Hogg. He was fifty years old and had red whiskers and a bald head. With a shriek of despair Miss Clara twisted herself out of his arms, called him an idiot and fled behind the curtain. The dramatic situation had been knocked into a cocked hat, and never again never more on this earth would she speak t the young man who hadn't got his wits and his legs united soon enough to play the hero to her heroine and end the graduation exercises with red and green fire and women fainting away all over the hall. Joe Kerr in St. Louis Republic. Giant Cranes' Minuet. Australia, the land of oddities, animal, vegetable and mineral, has few more curious creatures than the giant cranes often five and six feet in height, with beautiful blue gray plumage, which are called native companions. These huge birds mate ior nte and as mates are singular fy and touchingly devoted to one another. Among their practices that of dancing together is the most remarkable. To and fro and up and down, beneath a scraggy tree near a creek or water hole a pair of these curious birds may be seen in the hour of dawn footing it gravely in a sort of grotesque minuet. There is a strange sort of angularity about all their movements, but withal a certain grace, bizarre and notable Curious stories are told of the won derful human-like devotion one to another which is sometimes shown by these great cranes. St. James' u-azette. His Alternative. It is best to keep one's personal dignity at whatever cost. A be fitting sense of what is due one never comes amiss, even within prison precincts. This truth was appreciated by an Irishman whose expression of it is quoted by Michael MacDonagh in "Irish Life and Character. The prisoner, refrac tory and obstinate, flatly refused to worK m tne treadmill. The man was brought before the governor of the prison for disobe dience. The governor asked him what reason he could give for not tollowing out his orders. "Me so on the treadmill" ex claimed the prisoner, drawing him- seit up to his full height of offend ed dignity.

E Heart Strength Heart Strength, or Heart Weakness, means Nerve Strength, or Nerve Weakness nothing more. Pos itively, not one weak heart in a hundred is, in it self, actually diseased. It is almost always a hidden tiny little nerve that really is all at fault. This obscure nerve the Cardiac, or Heart Nerve simply needs, and must harye, more power, more stability, more controlling, more governing strength. Without that the Heaft must continue to fail, and the stomach and kidneys also have these sama controlling nerves. This clearly explains why, as a medicine. Dr. Shoop's Restorative has in the past done so much for weak and ailing Hearts. Dr. Shoop first sought the cause of all this painful, palpitating, suffocat ing heart distress.
