MARVELOUS SPEED OF DOGS
Greyhounds' Travel at Swift aa tho
Flight of Carrier Pigeons? necord
of lukimo Animals.
Few people realise of what remark?
able speed dvge are capable. Some
statistics In r gard to this have boen
lathered by M. Dunoller, a French
iCtiDttflt. IwertJIm to Our Dumb An
imaia. After pointing out the mar?
velous esduasuce ahown by little fox
terrier a, who follow their masters pa?
tiently for hours, while tho latter are
riding on bicjoles or m carriages, he
says that even greater endurance ii
shown by certain wild animals that
htm akin to dogs Thus, the wolf can
run between Ifty and aixty miles in
one night, an I an arctic fox can do
(tulte as well. If not better.
Kokimo and Sit erlan dogs can trav?
el lorty-ftve iiilen on the ice in (Wo
houre, and taore la a ease on record
in which a team of Eskimo dogs trav?
eled sig and ik half miles In twenty
eight minutes According to M. Du
aolier, the speed of the shepherd dog*,
and those use! on hunting ranges, is
from ten to fifteen yards a second.
Rntftah setters and pointers hunt at
tho rate) of eighteen to nineteen miles
aa hoar, and they can maintain this
speed for at least two hours. Fox
bounds are extraordinarily swift, as
is proved by the fact that a dog of
this breed once beat a thoroughbred
horse, ooverhur four miles In six and
a half minutes which waa at the rate
of nuarty eighteen yards a second.
Oieyhounda see the swiftest of all
fouisoeted creatures, and their speed
mal' be regarded as equal to that of
rarrfce* e4geori?. English greyhounds
waiea are asssl for coursing, are able
to dawar at full gallo?, a space be?
tween eighteen and twenty-three yards
every second.

Pig In Society.
Here Is a picture in a newspaper of
a dUnty damsul leading a little pig
alone* the at reel., as she would her lap
dog. And why not? A clean little pig
la ati nice as s clean little dog; and
what is more. It Is a very interesting
animal. There Is no prcttlor sight
anywhere than a little family of three
or four months' pigs gamboling about
in a stable yard, chasing little snuffs
of wtad and to;.sing Imaginary straws
hither and thither. We commeud the
young lady's Judgment In choosing
pig for s comptnlon along the streets.
One lalng that is effectual about it is,
It will tend to keep young men at
their distance. We do hope the pig
will become aristocratic enough to
make Itself alaiost a social necessity
among the aristocracy. It would cer?
tainly Improve them, which the dog
has tailed to do. Htm. the dog ie the
hyper ion of animals; but the little Big
?he is all grace and beauty, Just like
the damsel, who is leuding him with
a silken cord. Welcome the pig to our
aristocracy.?Columbus Journal.

Just Likv the Real Ones.
Artiaeial eari are so skillfully made
that they may with difficulty be dis?
tinguished from natural onos. When
the person who has lost an ear applies
to the manufacturer for a subbiltute.
there Is made a mold of the remaining
ear. If there to left any part of tho
other, a mold of that part also must
be taken to assist in the fitting of the
artlMeleJ. Manufacturers assert that
no two eara are alike, and that It takes
a skillful workman to prepare an ear
from the mold or molds.
When finished tbo new ear is pasted
on the stump, ur simply set in the po?
sition of the lost oar. It Is really only

GOOD DEAL OF A NUISANCE
Some of the tnoonvenienoes Rural Pa?
trons of the Telephone Aro
Subjected 1o.
In the American Magazine an indig?
nant writer objects to supplying free
telephone facilities to the eutire coun?
tryside. This letter given a good ex
ample of the outrageous demands that
thousands of country pepple make up?
on their neighbors every day.
"We don't object to paying for our ,
neighbor's telephone convenience/' re- >
marks the writer. "It's being roused
nut of our first sound sleep at night? |
or, worse yet, the last delicious snoozo
in the morning?that we seriously ob?
ject to.
"It's putting on our goloshes and
raincoat and wading a quarter of a
mile through slush just to ask Mrs. X.
to please step to the phone. It's com?
ing back and finding Jack, Jr., stuffing
Baby Betty with popcorn to toll Mrs.
Y. that Mrs. X. is not at home.
"Briefly, then, to cut short a tragic
story, 1 never put baby in her tub, pie
in the oven or lather my scalp with
tar soap that I do not have to enter*
tain a neighbor who just ran In to
phone and who remained hours to gos?
sip.
"But the proverbial 'last straw' was
added when a newcomer, a compara?
tive stranger to us, asked if I would
mind putting the key under the mat
when we went out so she could tele
phono her husband. Tho part that
rankles is that I did!
"Matters hive come to a crisis and
but one of two courses is open to us.
Tho firtt is to sell our home, since a
telephone is a business necessity with
us, and mcve to a telephone-equipped
neighborhood. The second and prac?
tically decided upon course of action
is to inclose with glass n small square
porch opening off the dining room and
turn it into a telephone booth for the
use of our neighbors."
EVOLUTION OF A SENATOR
Writer in Harper's Weekly Indulges
In Some Pleasantries at tho Ex?
pense of Our Statesmen
Prior to election a future United
States senator is meek and lowly. He
is not averse to holding babies or four
aces, as the environment may domand,
while campaigning for votes. One
may safely slap him on the back with?
out fear of rebuff. Before the last
precinct is counted ho seems to know
hin success, for the senatorial candi?
date stiffens, dons his black clothes
and a fresh collar and begins to prac?
tice n dignified stride for future use
on Pennsylvania avenue. Babies and
lUtjnli Iii i tarttt?r illyrtng ym>
iMHras; no longer does be tolerate
familiarity; he la as patronising as a
rooster who scratches worms for the
hens, and then eats them before his
Invited guests arrive.
Seated in a niche of the hall of con?
gress the new senator feels as though
ho should peer through a microscope
to make sure he is there; but confi?
dential letters, sent to the editor of
the Jumpoff Breeso, tell how he is pro
paring a bill advocating the irrigation
of Sagebrush Valley; also how he is
worked to death by other senators
asking favors of him. As a school for
fiction, writers the United States sen?
ate has all other correspondence
schools lashed to the mast.
Many senators fall to receive jest
reward at the conclusion of their
maiden voysge through the troubled
congressional waters, probably be?
cause the law is so strictly enforeM
against murder.?Harpes's Weekly.

Deadly Industry.
One of the most deadly callings, and
one of which very little is known, is
that of the workers In champagne cel?
lars. The work, which is light, and
without any obvious elements of risk
to health, consists in turning over the
bottles of champagne so that the wine
may be clear and transparent and ab- !
aolutely freo from sediment. The men
who do the work spend eight or ten
hoard a day in the dark wine cellars
turning over bottles by the thousand.
This monotonous d^ity they discharge
day after day in semidarkness, in a
high temperature, unhealthy at?
mosphere and absolute solitude; These
combined conditions affect the nerves
and health of the workers so seriously
that few of them can continue at their
pouts until middle age.
Stevenson's Kindly Criticism.
It takes a stylist to criticize a styl?
ist, and was the thing ever done more
gracefully than by Robert Louis Ste?
venson in a letter to Henry James?
?May I beg you, the next timo 'Rod?
erick Hudson' is printed off, to go over
the sheets of tho last few chapters and
strike out 'immense' and 'tremendous'?
You have simply dropped them thcro
like your pocket-handkerchiefs?all you
havo to do is to pick them up and
pouch them, and your room?what du
I say??your cathedral!?will be
swept and garnis!ied. I am, dear sir,

Second?Many Winners in Con
tests.
The winning of the prizes for tho
best individual farm exhibit was the
%
chief feature attached to the farm
tiroducts exhibits. Mr. A t, White
of Concord, who had abou: one hun?
dred and ilfty different varieties of
products raised on his farm was giv?
en first place. Mr. White is one of
tho hustling farmers of the county
and the excellence of hts exhibit cre?
ated a great deal of interest and fa?
vorable comment on the diversity of
his farming. He is one of the farm
ors of Stlmter county who can live
whether the boll weevil comes or
not for he does not depend solely on
cotton, as so many farmers do.
The second place was given Mr. T.
S. DuBose, another hustling young
farmer. Mr. DuBose lives in the
Mechanlcsville section of the county
and is well known for his energy and
up-to-date methods.
The third place was given F. W.
Andrews of Osweso, whose booth was
attractively and uniquely designed,
and whose exhibits were very pleas?
ing. There were quite a number of
other farmers who made most cred?
itable exhibits, but the judges decid?
ed that their products and display
wsre not sufficiently good to win one
of the three places for which prizes
were offered.

Waated Steam.
Kver since the Introduction of elec?

use of electrical meters, but it has
only been within the last few years
that reliable steam meters have beet
in the market, and these meters, with
the accompanying coal and water
weighers, have done more to demon?
strate the wasteful use of steam and
arouse the interest of the plaat owner
than anything else known. In one
large plant the newly installed steam
teeters unearthed leaks and other

year, and this is by no means an ex?
