Spot arrived in Chicago last night,

Mr. Rehberg went to Holland two
weeks ngo for duck shooting. Ho took
tlie dqg along; hut when he returned
ho left Spot behind. Country life did
not suit Spot. It made him sad. One
night, while tied to a tree, ho slipped
his collar and disappeared.
Spot kept no record of his trip, and
therefore Mr. Rehherg can only sur¬
mise. The conclusion is that he walk¬
ed all the way from Holland. To do
this he must havo made nearly thirty
miles a day. Furthermore, he had no

SPANISH 01
An Industry That t«
port ante*
The olive Industry in Spain is
creasing in Importance within
years, mainly owing to the
which have been made to use
processes, so ns to compete success¬
fully with the Italian industry. One of
the lending branches of the olive trade
Is the preparation of green olive*. Thi*
is carried out on a large scale at Bar¬
celona. There Is a large Internal con¬
sumption of the olives am) besides,
the annual exports now reach 7000
tons. The olives are put up in bottles
or kegs. To carry out the pickling
process, the olives are well sorted, n»
only those which show no faults can be
kept. They are then placed for several
days in cold water, which is renewed
frequently. Then they are placed in
n brine bath, which consists of a salt
and soda solution, and are covered
with the liquid. In some eases differ¬
ent aromatic substances are added to
the bath, so as to give a special flavor
to the olives. Ripe or nearly ripe olives
are but little in demand and are not
consumed to a large extent. As to the
extraction of olive oil this has been
carried out heretofore by a primitive
process. Each small cultivator ex¬
tracted his own oil by a press which he
hired, generally making payment in oil
or farm products. The olives were
ground up In a horse-mill before press¬
ing. The ground olives were then put
in a lever press, using boiling water
for the extraction. The presses are of
heavy build, but the process Is a slow
one and the olives need to he stored
on hand for some time. They are thus
likely to ferment and give an inferior
quality of oil. it is estimated that
there are some 3000 or 4000 of such
primitive oil presses in use in Spain at
the present time. The pomace which
remained was formerly used for fodder
or as combustible, hut now it Is gener¬
ally sold and more oil is tnken from it
by an improved process. Some of the
large producers saw the necessity of
working on a greater scale and com¬
menced to introduce large cylinder
presses and grinding mills, which gave
an increase in the quantity as well
the quality of tlie oil. The use of these
machines is now becoming general in
the large factories. As to the remain¬
der of the olive oil process, the oil is
placed after extraction in large eartli-
enware Jars or tin tanks and is then
filtered. In some cases the air is kept
from the oil by means of a layer of
alcohol which is placed on the surface.
The inferior grades of oil are used in
soap manufacture.—Scientific Amer¬
ican.
One Way to STake a Living.
Tho chief industry of Beth-lelicm of
Judea Is tlmt of the mother-of-pearl
workers.
The shells are brought from the
Red Sea, and in the hands of native
artisans are polished and carved, the
larger into elaborate designs; the
smaller are out up for rosaries and
crosses. The work is all done by
hand, and the methods are amazingly
primitive to a spectator from the home
of steam and electric power. But the.
results are extraordinary. The largest
shell we saw was carved in scenes
from the Birth of Christ, the Agony
in the Garden, and the Crucifixion,
and had the general effect of delicate
frostwork. Under the magnifying
glass every detail was seen to be per¬
fect in outline and In finish. It was
executed to order for a wealthy Ameri¬
can, and was to cost 81 GO.
About a 150 people make a living
by this industry, which is 500 years
old. In the shops the workmen sit
upon the floor, their benches in front
of them; the air is full of whitish
dust, and the light, admitted by the
single window and tho open door, so
dim that the exquisite, tracery of the
wrought shells is a mj'stery even be¬
fore tho visitor notes how few, simple
and crude are the instruments em¬
ployed.—Marion Havland, in Lipi^u-
cott’s.
•'Crape Pullers" Ho Well.
"Crape pullers got a twenty per cent,
commission,” said the conservative
florist. "That commission comes off
the flowers, though,” lie added, sneer¬
ing.
"Wliat is a crape puller?”
“A ej-ape puller is a man who, watch¬
ing the dentil notices in the news¬
papers, calls on all the bereaved fami¬
lies and solicits orders for flowers for
tilt' funeral. We call such a man a
crape puller contemptuously, pretend¬
ing that he gets indoors by yanking
the crape which bangs from the door¬
bell. A good many florists encourage
crape pulling—in fact, live on it. They
have booklets, illustrated with photo¬
graphs, that tell all about the various
designs they make. With these book¬
lets the crape puller can solicit orders
in an intelligible way.
“Wei conservatives don’t encourage
crape pulling. We consider it un¬
seemly and indecorous in the first
place, and In the second place, since
the big commission to the puller comes
not out of the pocket of the florist, but
off the order of the purchaser, we con¬
sider It a little dishonest. But death
is always with us. Florists must live.
The new guild of the crape pullers
grows by hundreds weekly.”—New
York Tress. -
The Obl-TImc Novel.
For is not tills tho day of problem
novels? And do not these old-time
stories bring to us all the problems it
is worth one's while to discuss—gener¬
osity. bravery, manliness and- sincerity?
And do they not solve them, too? Man¬
liness ami sincerity are sure to win.
Generosity Is repaid by kindness. Brav¬
ery will always carry off the girl.
Throughout the book is not the prob¬
lem irresistible, with Its inspiring clat¬
ter of horses’ hoofs, its ring of valiant
words, its rapidity of action and ad¬
venture, its romance, its excitement
md life? When the prince has taken
the princess’ hand and has kissed her,
then you know that the problem has
been solved, that they will live happily
in the end. And who's he who says
they will not, who suggests that Cin¬
derella was never happy after she left
her ashes and her pumpkins and went
to live in a palace? He is a very un¬
comfortable person and had better be
muzzled. For it is a good world, you
think. You take your feet from the
fender, put out your reading lamp and
tumble to bed, conviction in your mind
that “the world is so full of a number
of things. I'm sure we should all be as
happy as kings.”—Charles S. Brooks, in
the Critic.

Drummer Boy’s Romance.
“I was a drummer boy In Sherman’s
army,” said L. J. Henry, of Chicago,
“and at the mature age of fifteen fell
desperately in love with a little girl
down in Columbia, Tonn., that I
thought as beautiful as an angel, and
who seemed to reciprocate my affec¬
tions, even though I was a hated
Yankee.
"All the time that my command
stayed at her home. I managed to see
her once every day. and at night
she was ever in my dreams. I thought
that death would be welcome if she
did not become my wife; and when
our force left for Washington all that
kept me from utterly breaking down
was her promise that she would ans¬
wer every letter I wrote to her. But,
alas; though I wrote often and loving¬
ly, never a word came in reply, and
for months I went about sick at
heart because of her supposed faith¬
lessness.
“Well, about six months ago I went
back to the South for the first time
In forty years, and though Columbia
i^’as out of my way I couldn’t omit a
visit to the scene of my first romance.
My wife and grown daughter accom¬
panied me, and I told them the story
and that I meant to see my sweet¬
heart of long ago if she still lived.
I had no difficulty in finding her and
we had a great reunion. She was a
fine looking matron and had a daugh¬
ter just the age of mine.—Washington

The Bells of England.
The metal tongue of the big bell
rings out many changes to our mod¬
ern ears. It speaks of disaster and
death, of rejoicing and devotion. In
England it often tells of old times
and quaint customs. Mr. Ditchfleld,
in a hook on Old England, gives some
of the traditions handed down through
the "tintinnabulation of the bells.”
In some parts of the country the
bell which tolls the old year out Is
called the "Old Lad’s Passingbell.”
In western England the bells peal
merrily on “Oak Apple Day,” to cele¬
brate the escape of King Charles at
Boscobel. Another bell, rung at the
beginning of Lent, is known as “Pan¬
cake Bell,” because, in old time
phrase, it "summons people away from
their pancakes to confession and fast¬
ing.”
A lively peal of hells Is often rung
at the end of the Sunday morning ser-
vice, and is called 'Pudding Bell.’
Perhaps is purpoe is to announce tc
the stay at homes that service is ever
and that the pudding may come out
of the oven.
Every night at five minutes past
nine “Great Tom,” the great hell of
Christ Church College at Oxford,
booms out its ponderous note one hun¬
dred and one times. This particular
number was ehclsen in accordance
with the number of students at the
foundation of the college.

been but few cases ot Its kind be-

used either, but has been a great eof-
fee drinker, and the specialists have
decided that the case has been caused
by this. Leach stated himself that for
several years he had drank three
of coffee for breakfast, two.at noon
and one at night. According to the
records of the specialists of this conn-
try this is the first case ever caused
by tlie use of coffee.

his case is iucurabie. The fact that
makes the case a queer one is that tlie

rest of his oigbt will folljw and the

Sunlight Kills Blond Races.
The book we spoke of some time
ago on “The Effects of Tropical Light
on White Men,” by Dv. C. E. Woodruff
of the U. S. Array, has attracted uni¬
versal attention. Dr. Woodruff take,
the position that the action of the
bright light even of q temperate coun¬
try such as our own is hound to be
harmful to the blon 1 races and Xhqt
in the long run these blond races wjll
he driven out of existence by ths dark¬
er-skinned races on this account.
"Light affects the nervous system,
producing nervous instability and Ir¬
ritability,” he says. This is now a
well known fact, and it is accepted
that the purpose of the pigment in the
skin of the natural inhabitants of
sunny countries is to act as a screen
to keep the aiiiuic rays of light es¬
pecially from penetrating the body and
irritating the nerves.
It took the climate of Greece only
7 centuries to destroy the blond popu¬
lation, according to Dr. Woodruff. It
is a fact that all the surviving peo¬
ples round the Mediterranean are
dark-skinned, in spite of large influxes
of people from more northern lati¬
tudes, with their fgir complexions.
In the great struggle for existence, Pr.
Woodruff intimates, the races in thjs
country which have come from the
cool and shady climates of northern
Europe are destined to burn out and
degentrate while the better protected
dark-skinned inhabitants will thrive.

may be attacked in one case and the
stomach in another, while in others it
may be kidneys, heart, bowels or gen-
