Of course it is not likely -,that there is any burglan at all, but if there should be he has every advantage, being on the alert and knowing just where to expect you, while you are fuddled with sleep and do not know where he may be. To carry a light is Simply suicidal, for a man in pitch dar mess can aim as accurately at a light as ,he can e.t.a bullse e in the day- time. A revolver is the most dillic,ult of all firearms to master, and un ess you have fired thousan s of shots wi h one et tar- getstill you ave learned how to shoot straight you •ettet rely upot a club. The best w apon for ho se defense is a short barre ed cylinder bore repeating s 10tgUn, cos mon y called "riot With a charg of uckshot you are much more likely ti hit an object in the dark t ari with a ingl bullet, and it gives a p r lyzing, ki ock down blow, whereas a p st 1 bullet s Ido puts a man out of ac - ti n before h can strike back. • Fill'the magazine of the gun with shells 1 tided with bu kshot, but leave the c ainber of the uu empty. Then it is s fe to keep about the house, for if a c ild or ignorant person gets hold a it h cannot discharge the piece by snap- ping it, but 'must first throw- the lever, w ich requires some strength. The gun is always ready for instant use by sim- pl pumping a shell into the chamber fr m the magazine, and then you have se eral shots in reserve.

"ever use smokeless powder except strictly according to the maker's diree- tio s. There ate three distinct classes of sm keless powders -namely, shotgun ni- tr , low pressurel rifle nitro and high pressure rifle nitro. The first is intended for shotguns only.: It is quick burning, landon this account dangerous to use in ifis. Do not fancY that bec a use a rifle bar- rel is so much thieker th n a shotgun it offers much leas resistanc to the expan- aim,' that endangers its bursting. ,Smoke - les powder is piractica ly gun cotton ta •ed down, its eiplosive principle being nitt ()glycerin or a simile nitro product.

Do not try to make expanding bullet out of the ful the points to soldiers are at the Dum Du jacketed ones byfiling o expose the lead.- British Id to have done this before bullets were manufactur- ed, lsut it is hatardous experinjent, or the Following reasons: The teg lar soft point bullets nova I made by the artridge facteries have a jacket which covers the base of the bullet completely, leaving the lead exposed at the point, but the hard mantle of a full jacketed bullet is revers- ed, covering theePoint, but not the head. Consequently If you file off the point of a full jacketed bullet, nothing is left cif the mantle but a thimble covering the bear- ing surface. Now, when such a bullet is fired, the charge of high pressure powder drives it forward with tremendous energy, but the steel thimble is so hard and the bullet fits the bore so tightly that great friction is generated, tending to hold the projectile bach. Th result of these two forces is that the end core- Is likely to be driven through the thimble, • leaving the latter sticking in the bore of the gun, and if an- other shot is thee fired the rifle is likely to hui:st. This would scarcely be the case with black gunpowder, which exerts a fairly uniform pressure and would prob- ably only drive out the thimble, ringing, but not bursting the barrel. But smokeless ;powder is, as 1 have said. largely composed of nitroglycerin.

Down in Missouri lives a boy who likes pets. He began with a pair of pigecins that he got in trade for a dog that he had traded a knife for. His parents allowed hirrt -to keep the pigeons 'until they mu ti - plied so that there were pigeons all over the place. Then he sold the pigeons and boaght a goat that ate the clothes off the line every Monday. He was 'compelled to dispose of it, and traded it for a pair a game chickens. In a week there wasn't a rooster left in the neighborhood; the game rooster had killed them all. His fa- ther took the game chicken e for a ride one night and lost them three miles out in the country. Three days afterward the boy brought them home, but he never told any one how he got the . And so he fought for his pets one by ne-his dog wae lost, his lamb stolen, h1t rabbits an away. He has come down to one Old hen. Recently he bought a "settin" Of eggs, A. 4settin" of eggs is as many as 'a moth- erly hen can hateh into chicks. He had made up his mind that his hen was lone- ly and needed company, and what so coinpanionable eha hateh of little chicks , to scratch f or? The hem, however, had different views, and didn't want to it on the._eggs. But he was not a boy to be stemped by a hen -he had borne too many losses already. He put the eggs in te box in which he ha I made a nest -of hay. Then he plant- ed the indignant hen on them, put a board in which he had bored a lot of holes _Sever herand left her to come t� terms. -Tat night his big brother kicked off the box and set the hen free. The -next morning the boy put . her. back, and put seine brieks on the board, for he thought ,She had raised the board and released herself. The brother kicked both bricks and board ff thitt night. The boy replaced hen and oatrd again, and again- they were kicked ff,l, Then he got a board and mad ii a 1 ole in it for the hen to Peke her head' thrOugh and nailed the board to the ,box. One a day he takes the board offilMnd chases the hep around the yard for exer- cise, and twice a day he carries food end water to her. What'sthe use of trying to discourage a boy like that? 1 Why They Swapped:Pines. , Travelers in Europe are limited be the railroads to a small amount of bag e carried free, usually about 56 pound n a traits in 'Belgium recently two fellow travelers got into conversation, when one asked leave to measure the other's trunk.
