"The pralrlo dog migration from Oklahoma to southwestern Texas dur ing July, 187-1, eclipsed anything of that sort witnessed by white men In this country," said Matt Duhr last week. "Millions of tho frisky little barkers must havo been In quest of new pastures or perhaps smelled that tho approaching legions of homcseck ers would surely exterminate the dogs and plow up the dog towns. "Tho pralrlo dog migration from tho north to the southwest lasted six lays, during tho month of July, 18T4.

A Scarborough gentleman was sur prised recently to find thirty-eight pins In his bresgfast egg, and most other people would have been surprised, too, under tne circumstances. There ought to be n collection of miraculous eggs somowhere. It was only two years sgo since a hen laid sn egg at Bed ford with a penny In It There Is no doubt at all as to the fact but the question, "How did the penny get In side the egg?" has never been qulto satisfactorily nettled. A comparison puzzle Is afforded by a market gardener, well known at Spltalflelds market, who once lost and found a half crown under almost In credible circumstances. He was In specting bis crops when he dropped the half crown on the ground, and though he searched long and diligent ly, be searched In vain. A year passed and the Incident was being forgotten, when, as he was selecting some pota toes for the market, Mr. Smith came across one of a very curious shape. Cutting It open to discover the cause of Its eccentricity, the gardener found Inside It the half-crown piece he bad lost twelve months before. The po tato was seen by hundreds of people, aud the truth of the story Is well vouched for, Itcmarkable as they are, there Is nothing unique In Uiesc cases. One of the romances of money-making Is the story of a man who found a news paper Inside a shark when fishing In Australia in 1870, and who learned the news of the Franco-German war In this way esrly enough to make a for1 tune out of It. The story may be true or not; everybody In Australia knows It Another after the same kind Is that of tho Milford Haven trawler which, while fishing off Carllngford Lough a year or two ago, caught up In thS net n packet of papers, tied together with red tape and carefully sealed. The skipper of the boat handed the docu ments to a lawyer, and It was found they were a missing link which stood between a woman and her fortune. They proved the right of a Miss Mscdonald to certain estates In Ire land, which she bad claimed ten years before, but which she had failed to win because the will could not be produced. It was this will which was brought up from the sea. Pearson's Weekly. Oroyon Dlood PurlUor is rightly named, becauro It purifies tho blood and tones up the body. Muscles In Tension. The, Itcvuo Sclentlfique has been asking what muscles tire soonest, with tho conclusion that It Is not the mus cles In use, but those under tension, al though doing no work. The writer urges us to use the arms and legs less and the back and neck more, for on them comes the greatest strain. He has been asking men of nil occupations the same questions: When you have worked much, where do you feel tired? Before you were trained did fatigue show Itself In the same regions? All the answers point to the same conclusions. Tho baker who kneads dough all night complains of fatigue In his legs. The blacksmith Is tired, not In his arms nnd shoulders, but In bis back and loins. The young soldier, after a march. Is especially tired lu tho back of the neck, even if he has carried no knap sack. The oarsman who Is In perfect train ing after prolonged exercise gets tired In his calves and Insteps. These facts point to the conclusion that In any continued effort we should try to niter the habit of contraction. That Is to say.'the body, like the nifnd, needs change ot work. Cltr Country Folks.
