Now there are boy scout stunts and boy; scout stunts, but It took a Terre Haute troop to put over the best one. It'was at a meet at the First Baptist church,*and they were Illustrating an early morning at their summer camp, ,Kiiineumapoose. The ecenerj, except 'for a small pjpp tent, was the regular church furniture. But still the audi? ence could stpstch Its lmcginatlon enough to make the scene effective. The first streak of dawn was an? nounced, and then slowly there emerged from the pup tent a yawn? ing, stretching scout. A wee Interval, and another followed him. Another Igpse of time, and another scout emerged from the tent. Then came others until there were 12 on the plat? form, and still others were coming. The audience was almost incredulous with amazement, for, as every one knows, a pup tent is so small that It cannot accommodate more than three boys at the limit. Then out started the thirteenth, and evidently he was too al??epy, for he jostled the tent so that it slipped away from its mooring, and there hack! of It was the entrance to the pool fof baptism. The,..youngsters lad been concealed In It and used the tent merely as an entry to the pi itforra.? Indianapolis News. MEANT TO CALL THEM QUICK Aunt Dinah Had No Idea of Allowing for Misunderstanding When She Rang the Bell.. Aunt Dinah, plantation born and reared, want to a nearby tow;i to "hire out." She was very promptly hired by a young housewife, who, seeing her 1 lack of familiarity with modern house- ' holds, started to train her. She showed Aunt Dinah her small silver-service bell?there wen no elec? tric bells In the old-fashione 1 house? and told her that when It was rung she mast come Into the dining room. Aunt Dinah aald she understood. A few days later the mistress vas seated on the broad veranda witli a friend when she heard a tremendous clangor from the direction of the kitchen. It came nearer swiftly snd soon identi? fied Itself as the sound of a large bell. Puzzled, the housewife eiitered the hall and there stood Aunt Dinah, swinging a large dinner bell vigorous? ly. "Why, what on earth is the mat? ter, Aunt Dinah?" she gasped. "Why are you ringing that bell?" "Well, Miss Mary. I thought dat was the way folks called each other in dls here house. Didn't you she w me yo* bell the other day? I found dls one in de cupboard and I wanted you right quick in de kitchen, so I rung bit" Labor Savers. At a home in North Delaware street the man of the house gathered two or more bushels of nuts last fall and put them in the attic. His wife spends most of her time at the office with him, so the house Is empty every day. However, recently the wife remained home one day and heard a terrific noise in the attic Investigating she found two squirrels rushing around like mad, trying to get out a closed window. They had gnawed a hole In the roof as large as a grapefruit and had disposed of the whole mess of nuts. The owner said they saved him the trouble of feeding them, for he iipd gathered the ntts for them.?In? dianapolis News. Superstitious Sleuti.

Kansas City Star. \ Twirling-Arme Dares. Many new dances were shown at the dancing congress In Paris recent? ly. Most of them, howeverj appeared to lack originality. An exception Is the "Tchega," which Is daiiced to the strains of Hindoo music. The "Tche? ga" would never meet w th the ap? proval of the British dancing masters, as It Is most unsuitable for the English ballrooms. It consists of fantastic movements in which the arms are twirled round the head while the dancer perfprms short hesitation.-? Daily Mafl, London. Measuring Distance in Turkey.

It was no secret to his Intimstes that King Kdward VII of England sub Jected his arms to the art of a tst tooer when he was prince of Wales, nor Is it a secret that hi* son,-the present king, was tattooed hy a skill? ful Japanese, when as a midshipman on board the "Bacchant" he visited Japan many years ago. The late czar of lltissts wore an Indelible India-Ink dragon on his left forearm, and quite a., number of other European royalties past and present, hiive received these indestructible "dec? orations." * But the experience of Charles XIV of Sweden and Norway, makes an in? teresting little story by Itself. It was always a puzzle to those most inti? mately associated with him, that he would never show himself anywhere with bared arms. It was not until his death in 1844 that the myst ery was ox plained. On his right arm were tattooed neither a dragon, an eagle nor an in? signia ol high authority, but instead the red cap of Liberty, ancl the mottet, "Death to Kings." As Jean Baptiste Jules Bernadotte, in his young repub? lican days in France, he had been thus tatteoed, never dreaming that later he would be called to the throne. SHEEP KILLED THEIR ENEMY Ordinarily Timid Animals Worked in Concert to Stamp Life Out of ' Big Rattlesnake. One summer morning a fanner in Virginia started out to salt a small flock of sheep that he lad recently put Into a hilly, overgrown field some distance from his home. At the pasture he called for some time, bat seeing or hearing nothing of the sheep he walked down toward the middle of the enclosure and mounted f tall stump at the edge of the brieT pa'eh. From this point of vantage he could see the flock on a piece of level gt ound scarce? ly 50 yards below him. The sheep were crowded into a sway? ing excited circle some 20 feet In di? ameter. ' Presently, while the sheep were standing still, a big we .her made a spring, landed with his feet in the very center of the ring and bounced away like a rubber ball. In a dash another followed his lead, and mother, until all had leaped on the same spot. Then away they swept down :he hill. Stepping down from his perch, the farmer made his way to the scene of this strange performance. By the side of the trampled brier clump lay the mangled remains of a hi i rattlesnake. Barb less Hooka for Anglers. A very commendable movement is under way among members of the Megantic club, and probably other sporting clubs, for the utie of the barb leas hook. The idea* m that true sportsmanship consists In giving the members of the "finny tribe" a fair chance for life and escape, and that to catch a fish with a barbiess hook Is more creditable than to use the old-fashioned barb. When trout or salmon are caught with a barbed hook, they are apt to be seriously in? jured, and even if thrown back Ihto the water do not receiver, in many cases; whereas, if the barbiess hook is used, as now advocated, they are, if returned to the water, in almost all instances revived and iaay be caught over and over again. This is true sportsmanship, and it is to be hoped that the barbiess hook movement will succeed.?Boston Post. Army Has New "Eyes." Army engineers are said to have de? veloped' a oew type of searchlight, mouuted on a rubber-ti -ed trailer that can be pulled great distances by a mo? tortruck which promises to be a great aid in anti-aircraft operations. It is a 60-Inch light of the "dishpan" type, yet weighs but 700 pounds a9 against the old light of this size, which weighed 6,000 pounds. The cost of the new light also has been reduced, being about a quarter of the cost of the first light, which had a glass mirror that was not only very heavy but also difficult to manu? facture. The new light has a mirror of thin metal with a backing of re enforced concrete. This construction Is said to "promise excellent results. Reduced Rates.
