Canine Recognized Office Call and
Would Awaken Matter When
Latter Waa Sleeping.
i Tony was a email scraggly-halred
Russian terrier that I had while working
as night operator at a New Hampshire
railroad station, writes F. H. S.,
In the Boston Olobe. In those days I
worked 12 hours and often longer
p, when we were short of men, and Tony
proved very useful to me, for I taught
a. Mm to read Morse signals and he
would wake me up when my office
was called If I happened to doze off
after working a long stretch without
natMy
office call was "Ux." Whenever
j* that call was ticked off on the wire I
would say "speak Tony!" and the little
fc doff would bark. In about a month's
time I had trained Tony to bark loudly
every time Ux was called on the wire.
One hot night as we sat In the little
?^office with the door open Tony growled

Forest at Qreat Height.
In his book, "The Real Algeria," quoted
lb the Christian Science Monitor.
If. D. Scott describes his journey
through a cedar forest. "The program
was to cross the mountains through a
fine forest of cedars by the Col de
Telmet, at an altitude of 6,000 feet,"
Mr. Scott says. "I came across a most
carious piece of hillside. Bare rock
as steep and smooth as a house roof
ran straight from the hilltop to the
bottom of the valley with a strike of
some 00 degrees. It shone like burnished
silver In the bright sun. Never
have I seen anything of the kind so
beautiful. In various crevices were
perched cedar trees, sometimes with
a rest so tiny that a miracle alone
held them apparently from sliding
down the chute."
Perfumes Defy Laundries.
The Arabs around Aden love powerful
perfumes and are highly skilled
In their preparation. Their favorite
Is called "oodt." It Is made from a
wood called "ood" and Is so powerful
that when burned In lncense-pots the
smoke will Impregnate the garments
of those present to such an extent that
the perfume will remain upon them for
, ' days, even after they have been laundered.
They often mix "ood" with civ
ei, MDDer^ris nnn musK, ana tnus per*
fame their clotlcs. The Germans tried
j, to sell their perfumes at Aden, bat
failed, as the best they could do was
about 43 cents &n ounce for perfume
not nearly so good as that which the
natives made for 8 cents.
What M8hlnnamu" Is.
Dyestuffs from leaves of tli * "Shlnnamu,"
a species of maple common in
Korea and known in parts of il- ?churia,
have given results so promising
as to be noticed in a British consular
report, says the Nebraska State
r Journal. Large quantities could be had
at about 12 cents a pound, and with
the colors produced cotton can be dyed
black, indigo, dark gray, gray or
khaki. In dyeing silk and pongees,
only black can be used, the chief value
of the extract being as a material add-w
lng 30 per cent to the weight of the
Hit Hard Luck.
"So you're coir.,; home?" said the
old man to the wanderer.
"Yes; tomorrow."
"I understand they are preparing the

"Just my luck. The doctor has made
me cut out nil fat loods."
