Town Without JIors<‘» or Wheel*.
The tow if of Funchal, in the Ma¬
deira islands, is a town with no horses
and no wheeled vehicles. In traveling
a.bout one either drives in a sledge or
is carried in a hammock. The streets
nnd adjacent roads are paved with
small and curiously smooth cobble¬
stones, uud from the lirst it was found
that runners were better than wheels
both for speed and comfort. For in¬
stance, when you come to a hill the
oxen draw your sled to the top and
are then unhitched. Tour driver then
proceeds to toboggan your conveyance
gently down the other side, while the
team trots on behind. Horses are not
available in Funchal, as the nature of
the cobblestone roads would soon ruin
their feet. This Is why the ox, with 1
his flexible hoof, is the draft animal of
Funchal, For expeditions into the
country the hammock is used. This is
on a pole, carried on the shoul¬
ders of two men, and ls^perhaps the
most comfortable conveyance In the
world- no jar and no need to guide it.
A City on the Clftffn.
Precisely why the town of Bonifacio,
tn Corsica, is built to the sheer edge
of the cliff which forms the sea front
nge of that part of the island is a ques¬
tion always asked by the traveler who
views Bonifacio for the first time, and
lie reiterates ids question when he ob¬
serves. upon visiting the environs of
the place, that there is plenty of room
for tlie town to have spread out In an
Inland direction. The early Corsicans
apparently thought that farm land was
worth more than city real estate and
so crowded their dwellings to the dizzy
edge of their 200 foot precipice, tine’s
first -impression is that these houses,
with their walls on a vertical plane
with the cliff, were purposely so silu
ated that tlie body of a victim of a
dark vendetta murder might be con¬
veniently dropped out of tlie window
tnto the sea beneath, with no one the
wiser. Certainly there is a suggestion
of romance and mystery in the aspect
of the town. It forms, at any rate, one
of the oddest sky lines In the world.

Bear hunting, with the assistance of
guides supplied with a well trained
pack of hounds, uiny lie satisfactory if
merely the killing of them is desired,
bill: It certainly Is no sport and de¬
serves not oven tn lie ranked with trap¬
ping bears, as In the latter case the
hinder must possess at least some
knowledge of tho quarry's habitat and
habits, Unlike a fox, a bear, when
once found by tlie hounds, stands no
chance whatever of escaping, and
thore would be Just as much sixirt In
shooting the animals in a park or pen
as to kill a run to bay bear. And,
while this truth applies to mountain
Ilona also, there is not even tho ex
Citse of the' animal's destructiveness,
which is applicable as fur as the lat¬
ter-la concerned.- Field and Stream.
The Foodie,
Why is a poodle, so called? Some
one says: ' Probably the natural an
swer would recall the old lady who
sijRl that tm credit' could bo given
to Adam for paining the pig, since
anybody would have known what to
call. it, 'F.iodle' seems so obvious a
urtriie (of this dog. And, In fact, this
ls„not' far from the truth about tlie
origin of the 1 word; It is quite recent
!q English, not being found before
1804, apparently. It Is the German
,‘pudel,’ which comes from the Low
German, 'pudeln,' to waddle, und the
dog must have been so called, as Skeat
says, either because he waddles after
his master or because he 1 >->ks fat and
clumsy on account of thick hair-,"

It seems strange to think that some
ice Is colder than other Ice. The term
"ice cold" always seems to signify a
definite temperature. All water under
similar conditions freezes at a certain
definite temperature. But when the
thermometer falls below that It con
Unites tq fjffoi't tlie lee, making it hard¬
er pud colder. The tost has beep made
by placing a piece of ice from the
north and a piece of ice formed in the
vhduJty of Hew York near a stove to¬
gether. The former took much longer
to melt than tho latter.—New York
