Tbe owoar of a Utter of Juvenile porkers, roosted to death by tbe caaoaJ burning of tbe fam ily sty, In picking about among the reins and sorrowfully handling tbe crisp remains chanced to burn his fin gers. Clapping them to pl$ mouth, be tasted a pleasure so exquisite that It made him at once forget bis pain and loss. Pouncing on tbe prise, be not only dispatched the whole barbecue at a sit ting, but licked bis lips for more. The story got wind, and the entire country was ablaze with burning pig pens, nor was It till many years after that some adventurous Innovator shock ed the adherents of conservative cook ery by proposing a new and lees expen sive process of preparing a favorite dish. It Is not for us lawyers to laugh at this. None has been more prone than we to roast pigs according to precedent. All of us can remember when in every action to recover the value of one man's property wrongfully appropriat ed by another It was necessary to al lege a flctltlc 9 losing by the former and finding the latter and all be cause the first case of the sort, bun-: dreds of years ago, happened to be one j of real losing and finding. Nay, I have ! even known the loss and finding of a j patch of cabbages to be solemnly aver- j red, and no lawyer thought of smiling atlt In the department of evidence we have been especially slow to learn.

"It Is always amusing to watch the rooks In the period of their courtship," says au English writer. "When the male bird first begins to seek a mate the fact Is soon made known to the world at large by a curious hoarsening of his voice. There Is no accounting for tastes, according to an old proverb, and to the female rook there Is no inu sic equal to the hoarseness that her lord begins to show about the middle af January. Then begin the violent tournaments of which she is a passive spectator. The two claimants for ber favor often begin pecking at one an other at the very tops of the trees, and as in the fury of their onslaught they lose foothold they drop and drop and drop till they bump against the ground, often at the very feet of some human onlooker who has been watching their proceedings with Interested curiosity. Darwin tells us of similar Incidents in the life history of deer aud cites as somewhat of an argument against the doctrine of the survival of the fittest that while two lordly and robust stag9 are fighting for the hind it will often happen that a timid and feeble third stag will come In and carry off tb prize. "But no such capriciousness as that is allowed the female rook. Probably before the battle begins he who aspires to be her future lord and master has selected the home In which they are to live, and should any other rook at- i tempt to share It with her he will fight him to the death. In this case the sur vival of the fittest is Insured. "When once they are mated the rooks seem to stick together and be subject 51 A A A A A A eft A A A 4 T T T T A r r t-v t -r-v & t .

WHY INDIANS PAINT. M.n Apache Learend Which Account For the Grotaaque Custom. Once an old Apache Indian, when asked the question why the people painted their faces, told this little leg end: "Long ago, when men were weak and animals were big and strong, a chief of the red men who lived m these mountains went out to get a deer, for bis people were hungry. "After walking all day be saw a deer and shot at it but the arrow was turned aside and wounded a mountain Hon, which was also after tbe deer. When the lion felt the sting of the ar row he Jumped up and bounded after the man, who ran for his life. "lie was almost exhausted, and when be felt his strength giving way he fell to the ground, c.'"ug on the, big bear, who, you know, is Ui grandfather of men, to save Mm. "The big Ik. : . nnl t' . call and saw that to save the Mar he bad to act quickly, so ne r-;r.r, od his foot and sprinkled .u WcV er the man. "Now, you ki.o that no animal will eat of rle ben or taste of his blood. So wi-en rh' lv; approached the man he smt'tlP'I of che blood aud turned away, bvt ps i.u did so his foot scraped tli face of I'm man, leaving the marks i 'ax clavs on the blood smeared face. "vnien the mn found that he was arm,1vTtKl he was so thankful that he feft the blood to dry on his face and never washed it kt aQ, but left It until it peeled off. "Where the claws of tbe lion scraped it off there were marks that turned brown In the sun, and where the blood stayed on It was lighter. Now alJ men paint their faces that way with Mood and scrape it off In streaks when they bunt or go to war." Valuable farm aud Outfit Offered for Sale.
