Gilliam &. Bisbee
Experts of the bureau of ani
mal industry believe they have
discovered a new cross breed of
horse that will prove as tough
and useful as the mule and yet
have the intelligence and speed
of the full blood horse. Experi
ments were made by breeding a
Greavy zebra to a Morgan mare.
The resultant foal has been high
ly praised by horsemen and breed
ers are urging that the govern
ment import as many more zebras
of the same strain as can be pro
cured for the purpose of estab
lishing the new breed.
What a blessing it is to be able
to admire things without always
speculating what they represent
in dollars and cents. Some peo
ple can never gaze on waterfall
or cataract without computing

how much horse power they could
be made to generate, nor upon a
landscape without figuring out its
commercial value. Such people
in their commercializing of every
thing miss the best of life. All
poetry and sentiment are stifled
by the ledger, and all music by
the ring of the dollar.
Some men succeed in life by
minding their own business.
Others manage to draw large
salaries for neglecting other
people's business.
The man who is most charita
ble in his judgments of others is
the man who usually is most cor
rect in his estimate of others.
The man who makes little or no
allowance for conditions and cir
cumstances, is more often wrong
than right.

''Lustra Hoy.idji! Lustra T5oy
ndji !" is the cry of the Cormtuntino
ple bootbhiulv as he sits in the (ihmle
of the Vein" Djanii mosque. "Ouzel
boya elTendiin" (a good (shine, m),
he cries us you catch his eye and
prepare to try your luck. The shoe
box on which you place your foot is
a work of art. It is adorned with
extravagant designs in pressed sil
ver and mother-of-pearl. A case
about four feet high, with an orna
mental clock on top, stands at his
right hand side. It is filled with
bottles, of different polishes in vari
ous hues.
With deft celerity Achmet takes
out a bottle of benzine and care
fully removes stains from your tan
shoes. Next he washes youi shoes
with soapy lather to remove the
grease. While he fans them to
hasten the drying Achmet never
fails to compliment you on the ex
cellent quality of your shoes, even
if they are in the last stage of di
lapidation. It is now time for the first polish.
Out comes another bottle, and the
liquid is applied. With his brushes
the bootblack works, gaining speed
as the shoes gain luster. Another
polish in paste form is rubbed care
fully into the leather with the tips
of the fingers. A spot of sunlight
strikes your shoes. That will never
do the paste will dry too quickly.
An umbrella shade is adjusted and
the polishing continued, only this
time with a silk cloth.
You are growing impatient.
Twenty minutes have passed. "Iki
takiga effendim" (two minutessir).
Achmet says as he notices your im
patience. Tie is now rubbing wax
on the polish which has already daz
zled you. "What is that for?" you
ask. '"To preserve the luster," is
the answer. The final rub with the
silk cloth is over. You are more
than satisfied. But, no. As you take
your foot away Achmet produces a
bottle of varnish and while your
hand goes into your pocket for
change applies it to the heels and
edges of the soles.
"How much?" you ask. "Yirmi
para" (2 cents). You are astonish
ed. Two cents for a half hour's
hard work! It is impossible. But
that is all he cares to charge, and
he expects no tip. You hand him
a piaster (about 5 cents), the bal
ance as "baksheesh." He is delight
ed and wishes you all the joys that
Allah can give you on this earth
and in the world to come. New
York Post.
Desert Plants.
Plants of the desert, as a rule,
possess few leaves, the cactus, for
instance, being mostly spines. There
is a very good reason for the lack
of leaves in desert plants. The ob
ject is to check the transforation
of moisture by offering as small a
surfase as possible to the dry air.
For the same reason the roots of
desert plants usually run deep into
the soil so that they can suck up all
the available moisture. In some
instances the leaves assume a verti
cal position and thus avoid the di
rect rays of the burning desert sun.
On the other hand, the leaves of
trees in very wet countries are pro
vided with points such as the ma
ple from which the rain drops off.
Were the leaves flatter the rain
would collect and make them rot.
Dentist-Barbers.
Although extinct in this country,
the race of dentist-barbers survives
abroad. The Cr,i de Paris quotes
an advertisement from an Algiers
paper: "The undersigned begs to
announce that he has now been es
tablished for seventeen years as
hairdresser and dentist at 17 T?ue do
la Marine. He is endowed with
faculties which enable him to ex
tract teeth with the utmost celerity
and without inflicting the slightest
pain. He is warm hearted, public
spirited and thoroughly proficient
in all forms of dental work."
Sensible Preference.
In one of Miss Mulock's stories
sire says that "a cheerful heart seeth
cheerful things" Hnd gives this in
cident in proof of it:
A lady and gentleman were in a
lumber yard situated by a dirty,
foul smelling river. The lady said,
"How good the pine boards smell!"
"Pine boards!" exclaimed the
gentleman. "Just smell that foul
river!"
"No, thank you," was the reply;
"I prefer to smell the pine boards."
And Quickly.
Mr9. Newbride came hurriedly
into her husband's study one morn

hosband, "if you do sit on a hot j
stove I think you will find that y I
will stir constantly." Cleveland .
