WOMAN BREEDS ESKIMO DOGS tteama Qgter Occupation, but Haa Mad* ? Ramarkabia Suo caaa of tha Work. At Qrov# Park, ?do of tha auburba of lx>ndon, Mf* Scott conducta a very interesting dog farm. Her specialty la Ksklmo dogs, which ah? breeds and train* for tha market. The market la not vary large, but It la sufficient to make It worth her while to ralae and train the beat poaalble Kakimo doga. It la not the food market, nor the or dinary dog market. It la the market for Ksklmo dogs which are trained for Arctic exploration. If you decide to make a journey to one of the poles, you know that Kakl mo doga are absolutely essential You can get good Kakimo doga in Greenland, or In Alaska. Hut the good doga In Greenland may not be ?xported except by apeclal permission of the Daniah government; and the good doga In Alaaka are not so good. One trouble with ordinary Kakimo doga la that they have no breeding and no dlacipllne. They will obey the maBter with whom they have been brought up, but when they atart after flah or other game, even their maBter can control them only by the exerciae of brute force. For the purpoaea of your exploration you need dogs that will obey ordera given by a white man, dogs that are broken to the har> neaa and are not afraid of work, doga that have learned team work. ? It la this kind of dog that Mrs Scott raiaea for the market. Her ken nela have only pure blooded animala of carefully selected atock, and from earlieat puppyhood she traina them In how to eat and how to work. When ahe geta through with an Eakimo dog the animal 1b not nearly ao ferocious aa one that Juat "growed up" In the Burroundlnga of an Kskitno vllfcge. They adapt themselves quic^ly-to new maatera, and they have acquired good eating mannora, ao that they are not so likely to attack the cupboard, or freah game. Mra. Scott feeds her animals no meat except pemmlcan and dried flah brought from Norway; a large part of the diet Is a specially prepared biscuit. She has aupplied trained dogs for a number of Arctic and Ant arctic expeditions.? Scientific Amer ican. * ^ ? SEEM TO HAVE LONG LIVES Politicians, In England, at Least, Find It Ona of tho Healthiest of Professions. Politics would appear to be among the healthy professions, Judging by the number of members of both houses of parliament who have passed the age of three score and ten. The lords, whose legislative duties are less stren uous, have, however, a larger number of veterans in. their ranks than the commons, as there. hre 23 peers who have reached eighty and over^ while only 19 members of the lower house have seen their seventieth birthday. The oldest peer is "the earl of Wemyss, who is ninety-four years old, Lord Strathcona and the duke of < Grafton following with ninety-two and ninety-one years respectively, to their credit Mr. Samuel Ydung, who is ninety, in spite of his name, is the doyen of the commons, Mr. Thomas Burt, the "father" of the house, being, only seventy-flv^and junior in regard to age" to Mr. Joseph Chamberlain,- kfr. Jesse Codings, Sir Henry Kimber, Mr. Robert Cameron, Sir John Baker and 3ir Thomas Btoe. ? London Qlobe. Le Petit Caporai. Las Cases, the biographer of Na poleon Bonaparte, thus describes the origin of the title Le Petit Caporai; A singular custom was established in the army of Italy, in consequence of the youth of the commander, or from some other cause. After each battle the oldest soldiers used to bold a council and confer a new rank on their young general, who, when he made bis appearance in the camp, was received ^ by the veterans and saluted by his new title. They made him a corporal at Lodi and a sergeant at Castigllone; and henoe the surname of "Pbtit Caporai" which was for a long, time applied to Napoleon by tbe soldiers. How subtle is the chain which unites the most trivial circumstance to the most Important events! Perhaps this very nickname contributed to his miraculous success on his return in 1S15. While be was haranguing the first battalion, which he* found it neo essary to address, a voice from the ranks exclaimed, "Vive nqjtre petit caporai J" We will never fight against him!" Hand Mirror of Brass. Now only Egypt's first ladles ever indulged in the luxury of a hand mir ror. Time, they were not made of the heavy plate glass that Is used in those in present use. Before this mirror became oxidized dt? was in a highly polished state, and J>rass, when polished, can reflect- a face to all intents and purposes as well as glass. The body 1b round, or as round as it could be made with an Egyptian hammer, and the handle has the same graceful curves of thoso of today, 5 r" ^ ? . ? f French Mschlhs to Mplsten Stamps. -French postofficfcs will' in future 1m provided, officially, with stamp moist enlng ap?tta?eeer aa-4?nevation which Is hailed by the press as a hygienic reform. ?
