AN ALLEGED PROTOTYPE OF THE 
VENUS DE MILO 
GINCE Melos first yielded up its 
^ priceless treasure of the world-famed 
Venus de Milo, now in the museum of 
the Louvre at Paris, it has been the 
dream and despair of sculptors of every 
nation on the face of the globe to restore 
the arms that are wanting to the statue. 
It would appear that the problem created 
by the absence of these two arms is 
about to be set at rest through the dis¬ 
covery by the eminent French archaeolo¬ 
gist, Santorin, during the course of his 
excavations in Greece, of an antique 
statue, which, though wanting the head, 
is declared to be in other respects an 
exact replica of the Venus de Milo plus 
the arms.— N. T. Times. 
A NEW SWINDLE 
A NEW swindle is reported from 
Algona, Iowa, as being worked 
on the farmers there. 
A well-dressed chap, wearing glasses, 
went through the country, stopped at 
several places and stated that he was 
authorized to test cows for tuberculosis. 
He then went on with the test, or mock 
test, perhaps, and told the farmer that 
ten of his fourteen cows, the pick of the 
herd, were tubercular and that he should 
dispose of them. The farmer felt pretty 
badly over the matter and asked if he 
should kill them. The fellow said he 
need not kill them, but if he got a chance 
to sell them to some one who would take 
them out of the state he might do that 
and get something out of them. The 
fellow then went on to test other herds. 
It was the second day after this incident 
that an elderly man came along looking 
for cows that were for sale. He came 
to this farmer and stated what he 
wanted; the farmer was anxious to sell 
those ten cows and let the stranger have 
the cows at ^15 to ^16 a head. The 
buyer took them off, and then the farmer 
and his neighbors began to think that 
perhaps the young man and the old man 
were in some way connected with each 
other .—The Country Gentleman. 
In the japonica section of Hydrangea 
Hortensia, which contains those with flat 
heads of flowers, two of them, the Im- 
peratrice Eugenie and acuminata, are 
very good ones. The former is rose 
colored, the latter blue.
