Th Tots War Short an Cash, but Mik Waa Long on Human Feeling. The children burst into their mother' room like a twin cvclone. "Oh, mamma,' the two shouted in one gasping breath, "what do yon think? We can get a puppy for f 1 !" The mother did not seem par ticularly impressed with this bar gain in dogtlesh. "What on earth do you want with puppy?" she asked. "And what sort of a puppy is it ?" "We want to plav with it an' love it an' teach it to stand on its hind legs," elucidated the little girl. Its a yellow puppy! exclaimed the little bov. "Mike McDonough down at the carpenter shop's got em. I here 8 six. "Well, ask your father," sighed the mother, turning again to her sewing. "If he says so 1 haven't anything to say." lhe children withdrew for a con ference. Here was a situation not to their liking. If mamma had promised her influence probably papa would have been easy. Since she put it up to them this way the purchase of that puppy was doubt ful. "How much money have rou got?" asked the little boy. The two were seated gloomily upon the back steps. "I ve got 10 cents," said the lit tle girl, "and mamma owes mo a quarter for workin' in the garden." "that ain t money, said her brother scornfully. "If I had all the money they owed me for work in' in the garden an' things I'd be rich." "Have vou got any?" asked the Utile girl. "Any at all?" I ve got 43 cents in my bank. said her brother, "but we'd have to break the bank to get it out." That 8 half enough to buy a puppy!" exclaimed the little girl delightedly. "We'll get the rest sure. The two went down to the car penter shop again to look at the puppies. "doing to buy one? asked Jlike McDonough, grinning. 'If we can get the money, said the little bov. "We've got 43 cents and 10 cents. That makes more'n half." "Now, here," said Hike McDon ough, for Mike McDonough was a kindly soul, "won t your pa buy you a pup J" The children shook their heads. "We're afraid to ask him," they admitted, "but we got 53 cents, and pretty soon we'll have some more." ow, Jiere, said Mike McDon ough in a burst of human feeling, "I've got too many pups. There's a little one in the lot 1 haven t got room for. .You can just take it homo." "For 53 cents?" gasped the chil dren jovouslr. "For"53 n'otliin'!" said Mike Mc Donough. "I'm givin' you a pup. Come on here; let's get it." And with a child clutching either hand the red headed dog owner made his way toward the stable, and every step he took carried him closer to paradise and carried tho little ones closer to an immediate heaven, peopled largely by little yel low pups. Galveston News. A Queer Tug of War. In Burma the inhabitants have a novel form of the sport thnt else where is commonly called tug of war. In the Burmese game are a rain party and a drought party, which pull one against the other, the victory of either party being considered to have immediate re sults as regards the weather. The drought party, however, obtains few victories, for the kind of weath er it represents is commonly not so much desired as rain. In the face, therefore, of a strong public opin ion the rain party is nearly always allowed to win, the palpable "rop ing" in the popular notion being generally followed by a fertilizing downpour. Th 8am Brick. One day a mother found her four-year-old Alice playing with a brick in the parlor. She threw it out of doors and, turning to the child, said, "If you bring another brick into the parlor mother will whip you." Shortly afterward she again a-aaaasaaaawan earn II as J J 4 tound the cmiu playing witti a brick and, looking at her reprov ingly, asked, "What did mother toll you ahont that brick, Alto?' "Well, this isn't another brick," naid the child. "This is the one had before." Har Royal Jok. A story is told aliont a certain European sovereign who paid a vis it to England two or three yeur ago.

HOMES FOR WORKERS. Novsl Plan of Construction Dsvlsad by a South American. I'rofesaor Pierre Roveda, an archi tect of Buenos Aire, has devised a special plan for the construction of whole districts of houses for the work ing clnswrs, sura the Scientific AnWl can. Instead of rniplorini; the usual square block as a ttult. Professor Ro veda adopts a circle tarring In din me ter from UK) to VM yards. Tills circle of ground is suMlvMcil into iiliictj nlne radial Iota converging to a renter. The circle U concentrically divided to form an Interior avenue four jrarda broad to permit of commtiiiicntiou with the renter of the circle. Kach av enue Icu.ls to exlerunl sidewalks and to longitudinal and transverse streets. In the center of the circle is a plot of forty yardt In diameter, where chil dren may be left to themselves with out their parents' tare. In charge of n specially designated peraon. In this garden a playnwin, a school, a hospi tal, a fire station and an administra tion room are to be found. Naturally this circular plot of ground will leave four corners free. In each of these corners Professor Hoveda In tends to erect four chalets, such as grocery shops, dairies, haberdasheries and the like, which are to be conducted oo a co-operative plan. In each of the ninety-nine radial plots a working man's house la to be built on tbe Eng lish plan. It is argued that tbe circu lar arrangement will give continuous sunshine at all hours of the day and plenty of light and air. Public Debt of Canada. Consul Frederick M.

It orotecta horses and cattle from attacks of insects, enabling them to feed and sleep in peace. It prevents loss of weight and strength from worry caused by attacks of insects, and from the irritation of their bites and stings. There is a satisfaction in the relief it attords domestic animals from the scourge of maddening parasites and flies, besides the profit in returns. Horses do more work on less feed and cows yield more and betteV milk when relieved from the frenzy incited by constantly fighting a swarm of voracious, insatiable insects. .
