THE GNU IS A PUZZLE. It Seems to Be a Cross Between thy Horse, Cow and Deer. Did you ever hear of a horned horse? It is called the gnu and is a native of South Africa. The gnu is a puzzle. We have called it a horse, but it is more like a cow. it really seems to be a cross between the horse, the cow and the deer. It has the head and horns of tt cow, the tail, the mane and with - ere of the horse and the legs of a deer. Altogether the gnu is one of the most singular creatures on earth. The gnu inhabits the hilly flIstrlets of South Africa, roaming all tamer the country In vast herds. As far as trav- elers have yet penetrated it is found, and it is fortunate that it is so, for the flesh of the gnu forms exceileat food. (inns are, however, extremely wild and, being very quick in their mc:ve- meats, are difficult to shoot. Upon the first alarm the whole herd scampers away in single file, following a Rade; When seen from a distance they look like a troop of horses. Their speed is very great, and when tirst disturbed they do not exert it, but kick out their heels and begin batting at anything that comes in their way, exhibiting the greatest fury. Unless hard pressed they seldom show fight, but when brought to bay they will de- fend themselves desperately. They dart forward upon their enemy with great fury, and unless he remains cool and collected lie probably will not es• ea pe. Don't fail to soak all new brooms in scalding hot, salted water before using; this keeps the straw from breaking. Don't forget the many uses of salt in household emergencies: Egg stains on silver may be removed if rubbed with moistened salt. Don't forget that'lemon juice and salt are harmless but certain removers of iron rust from all table linen and white clothes. Don't forget when a chimney is burn- ing that if the stove be tightly closed and salt thrown in the range, the moist- ure generated will help to put out the fire in the chimney. Don't forget that salt is excellent for cleaning marble or porcelain sinks. Don't forget, when using butter sub- stitutes in cakes, that a pinch of salt is needed. \ Don't forget to look over your potato bins or bags each week. One moldy potato will soon affect an entire barrel. Don't fail to air your cellar each day, if possible. This aids greatly in pre- serving vegetables and canned fruits. Don't fail to have a small brush at hand when washing cut glass. Scrub the glass well with hot soap -suds. Then rinse it thoroughly and allow it to dry without a towel. Don't forget that if silver not, in fre- quent use is rubbed with oatmeal it will not tarnish easily. Don't fail to sash all lemons before using. The black specks on their skins are the egg cells of minute insects. Troubled t. koGa.

No stranger theft was ever commit- ted than the "lifting" of an entire railroad, twelve and one-half miles In length, which once connected Birr and Portntnna. in Ireland. The line had cost $150.000, acid for years it did service for 'he Great Southern and Western It:'?.way com- pany until the year 1576, when the company, which had been running it at a loss. washed its hands of it. The line was derelict, Nobody wanted it. For a few years it stretched its use- less length through north Tipperary. Then its neighbors began to turn cov- etous eyes on it. Bolts and screws and other portable trifles began to vanish. A few prose cations were instituted, but the charge's were withdrawn. Nobody seemed to care. The thieves. thus en- cuuragcd, grew bolder. Farmers brought their carts and horses and loaded them with spoils of rails. sleep ers. switches and semaphores. One goodly station vanished, to its last brick and door, in a single night. They were great times for Tipper- ary. Boatloads of booty, hundreds of tons of rails. were sent away from I'ortamon by unlicensed "contractors.' and the work nt spoliation went on until not as mach as a turntable was left. -Argonaut.

The Arabs have two toutt uls of esti- uniting the height to which ft volt will grow, the first being to siretc•h a cord from the nostril over the ears awl down along the heck and compare this measarernent With that from the with- ers to the feet and the other method being to compare the distance between the knee and the withers with that from the knee to the coronet. In the first method it is considered that a colt will grow as much taller as the first measurement exceeds that of the second, and in the second method, if the proportion is as two to one, the horse will grow no taller. Pedestrians. A teacher in a primary school was endeavoring to make clear to her class the meaning of the words "egr.estrian- ism" and "pedestrianism" when she put this query to one small boy: "What is a pedestrian?" "He is one of those fellows," said the boy, "who makes an awful kick when an automobile runs him down." -New York Press.

Uric Avid Suffering Uric acid is an accumulation of poison which finds lcdgment in the system when the kidneys fail to remove it from the blood. In the kidneys and bladder it forms stones, in the joints and mus- cles it causes rheumatism. Iu any case the pain and suffering is almost beyond human endurance. Uric acid is prompt- ly removed from the system when the kidneys are kept healthy and active by using Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills. Some people make light of trouble; others keep it dark.
