The screaming Walloon is a hard duck to kill. Its hide is very tough and is thickly covered with feathers and down. Besides, the bird Is a great diver, one of the kind that used to "dive at the flash" when hunted with the old arm that flashed when fired. It is of very little value for ta ble use. being so tough. The only way to manage it at all is to skin it and parboil It in a big pot with plenty of water. The negroes make caps of Walloon skins. "They are great ducks for diving,” says a well known Tred Avon river progger. “They can dive quicker, go down deeper, remain under water long 1 er and come up farther away than any other duck that frequents our wa ters. I remember once 1 succeeded in killing a Walloon, and, being short of game for the table, I determined to cook my bird. 1 got a negro to skin it. giving him the hide for his trouble. After being cleaned we put It In a great pot full of water and under it kindled a hot fire. After awhile 1 wanted to see bow the cooking of my i duck progressed and lifted the top off the boiling pot. but there was so much steam escaping 1 could not see into the pot and struck a match over It. The blamed Walloon, sir. dived nt tbe flash of tbe match. It disappeared and has never been seen since."—Baltimore Sun. To Start a Tight Screw. Diamond Scales.

There is no proof that it existed pre vious to the fifteenth century, and the oldest known pninting in which it ap pears Is a portrait of a lady in tbe academy nt Venice painted by Caspac- cio, who died about 1523. The legend | concerning tbe origin of the art is as follows: A young fisherman of the Adriatic was betrothed to a young and beauti ful girl of one of the isles of the la goon. Industrious as she was beauti ful. the girl made a new net for her lover, who took it with him on board his boat Tbe first time he cast It into the sea he dragged therefrom an exqui site petrified wrack grass, which he J hastened to present to bls fiancee; but war breaking out. the fisherman was pressed into the service of the Vene- tlon navy. The poor girl wept at the i departure of her lover and contem plated his last, gift to her. While ab sorbed In following the intricate tra cery of tbe wrack grass she began to twist and plait tbe threads weighted with small beads which hung around her net. Little by little she wrought an imitation of tbe petrification, and thus was created the bobbin lace. Lots of folks have tried to remove a i stubborn screw from a piece of wood, a screw that won't budge nt all. and have In tbe end given It up ns n bad Job. Well, if such a thing occurs again don’t give It up. don’t lose your temper I or exert yourself, but try this recipe for removing the screw: Heat a poker red hot and then bold it against tbe screw head for a little while; wait a few minutes for the screw to cool down, when it will be found that tbe screw can be removed quite easily with tbe same screwdriver that jus: previously would not perform the work. The explanation is quite sim ple. The red bot poker bents the screw, and tbe screw expands and makes tbe hole it is in just a wee bit bigger. The screw then cools down and re sumes Its original size, leaving the bole tn the wood a size too large—and there you are.—New York Sun. Too Realistlo.
