A Surprise.
It was pouring rnln, but tho twins
did not mind It ono bit, becntixo they
always liked over ho ninny rainy ilnyH
when tlioy wcro inaking n visit nt
Krnndum'H.
Grandma liml n big attic, filled full
of tho most wonderful things that you
over saw.
Thero wcro lnrgo trunks full of queer
milled coatH and volvet kuee-brcocheo.
And thero wcro bouncing tmndboxm
that held funny green cnlnshes and tho
biggest oko Iwiincts Imnglnnblo. And
then thero was tho North's nrk I
It wns not ltko your pretty painted
one, which Is full to the very top with
a wonderful mcnugerle.
It wax only n little old black box
without any cover. And tho uultnalsl
Undo Jacob cut them nil out of some
pieces of wood with his Jnck-knlfo,
over ro many yearn ago, when ho wns
not much older thnn thu twins.
And these nnlmala were Just ns
funny-looking ns nil tho rest of tho
things up lu that queer old garret
Thero wero blue cows and pink lions
and rcd-nud-black leopards, and when
Undo Jacob had Mulshed them he dis
covered that all tho nnlnmls looked
very much alike, so he wrote the nnmo
on tho back of each ono In great black
painted Ictotrs.
Polly and Pnfty lied this Noah's nrk
hotter thnn anything clso In that whojo
attic, und they thought It wan every
bit as wonderful ns Undo Jacob did
when ho had finished It so many yean
ago.
So this rainy morning, aftor thoy
bad finished their breakfast, these two
little girls hurried up to tho attic and
ran straight to tho corner under the
oavos to got their precious treasure.
Patty got here first, but when she
looked Into tho box she said, "Oh I oh I
oh I" very loud Indeed.
"Why, what's tho matter?" exclaim
ed Polly, breathlessly.
"Thore'B a.llvo ommal In Itl" whis
pered Patty. "There's a honp of baby
mlcol A wholo neat of them I And
thoy'ro pink, 'stead of gray nud furry.
Peep In and see them, quick, Polly I"
Polly shivered. "I don't dare to,"
alio said. Ami then situothlng happen
ed that mndo both children scamper
down thoso stain In n terrible rusf
Tho mother mouse came homo I
"I guess we can't go up In the stile
over eguln," said Patty, woefully,
'cause I'm not 'specially fond of mice,
'leas they're In tnpa."
Hut when Uncle Jacob went up Into
the attic with her after ulnner. there
stood the Noah's ark Just when Polly
hnd left It. The mice were gone, Et
ery oue of them I And the twins are
till wondering It the big yellow pussy
cat could tell them a secret, for she
was washing her face, nnd she looked
so 'knowing aud wise. Youth's Com
panion. The Mother Bird.
It has beea said by observers ot birds
that some ot them will feed their young
if they are caged, and It they rail, after
a time, to release them, they will bring
them a poison weed to eat so that death
may end their captivity. This Is sari
to seUsTS, bat sa apparently well as
thwntlcated Incident Is cited to prove It
Three young orioles wero captured nnd
wcro Immediately caged and tho cage
was hung In n tree. Tho mother soon
came, calling to the llttlo ones, and In
a llttlo whllo sho brought them some
worms. She continued for several lnys
to feed them, without paying much at
tention to tho persons who wero nbout,
but ono day Alio brought them n sprig
of green In tho morning, nnd dlpnp
pcared. In less than an hour tho young
birds wero dead. An examination of
the sprig showed that It was tho deadly
lnrknpur, which, It Is Bald, will kill
full-grown cattle. Thoro Is, of course,
a possibility that tho mother brought
them the sprig by mistake, hut to be
lieve that would bo to doubt tho pro
tective Instinct that naturalists attrib
ute to birds and animals.

How to Walk Upstairs.
Perhaps It has never occurred to tho
boys nnd girls that thero Is a good wny
and n bad wny to walk upstairs. Hear
whnt n well-known physician snys
nbout It "Thoro nro few persons who
know how to walk upstairs properly.
Usually n person will trend on tho ball
of his foot In tnklng each stop, spring
Ing himself up to tho next step. Thin
In not only tiresome, but Is wonrlng on
tho muscles, ns it throws tho entire
suspended weight of tho body on tho
leg nnd tho feet In walking upstairs
the feet should bo plnccn Baunroly down
on tho ntcp, heel nnd all, and then tho
ascent should bo inado without hurry.
In thin wny thoro will bo no ntrnln
on nny particular muscle, but each will
do Its work In n natural manner.
GERMAN HEART TOO LARQE.
Doctor of That Conntrr Telle of Ob
serrations nt Olympian 3ntnee.
A Gorman medlcnl man publishes
Roino Interesting comparisons mndo nt
tho Olympian gnmes respecting tho
nlzo nnd ntninlnn of tho heart of tho
English, American nnd German com
petitors respectively. Dr. Smith says
that an soon as ho oxamlned before tho
games tho hearts of German sportsmen
ho could prophesy that they would
provo no formidable rivals. Tho aa
of tho heart was so abnormnlly great
that In contests requiring strength, en
orgy nnd ondurnnco It wns physically
lmiosslblo that thoy should succeed.
HauiltH proved tho truth of this. fore
cast, and It In notablo that tho few
German athletes who did win places
wero In possession of tho minimum
sized hearts.
In tho American sportsmen tho heart
conditions were In striking contrast to
thoso of tho Germans. Many of tho
American athletes wore found to pos
sess henrtn wnaller In dimensions than
the smallest heart over measured In
a Gorman hospital. An Invincible
sprinter possessed tho smallest heart
among tho American competitors. A
German-American nthloto, rnthor sig
nificantly, was found to have tho
largest
Among the Englishmen examined tho
hoart was found to bo slightly larger
thnn that of tho Amorlcans, though
smaller than that shown by nny other
nntlon. A parallel enso which occurred
at tho gnmes strikingly Illustrated tho
difference In form between the English
and tho German athletes. In splto of
an Indisposition n German nthloto took
part In a certain contest Subsequent
examination proved that his henrt hnd
Increased at the end of the struggle
to double Its previous size. An En
glishman, suffering from tho same In
disposition, returned from tho contest
as winner and his heart had becomo
smaller. Tho writer points out that
by a wrong system of training nnd In
judicious living German athletes are
doing much to cultivate heart and
nerve complaints on a serious scale.
