1t appears that when the French prisoners
taken at Weissenburg arrived at Mayence,
the crowd received them very well, throwing
packages of tobacco and cigprS to their
beaten foes. At Erfurt wine and cigars were
also offered by the Gerc-ans to their prison
ers. 1t is the characteristic of true courage
to be humane and generous to the van
pushed. This treatmont by the brave Ger
mans of the French invaders of their coun-
try would seem to indicate that there is, in
reality, no intense hatred between the mass
es Of the people.

WHAT WE EAT WITHOUT KNOWING
Some Southerner on his summer tour to the
North has amused himself by following up
the large shipments of white clay, or "ka-
olin," which comes from the deposit near
Augusta. Georgia. and has partially discov-
cred what has become of it. The clay is
very fine in grain.f rec from silex. and OF a
pure white color. It's said to be valuable
in the manufacture of various grades of
earthenware. but as the tons and tons of it
which come North do not seem to 60 to p0r-
celain manufactures. our Southern friend
has taken the trouble to ascertain that it
has becume the standard substance for the
adulteraiion of soda. cream tartar, calomel.
and particularly the fancy candies with
which We are all accustomed to imperil our
lives. All this is very interesting. If the
American people have got that bankof clay
to eat before we can have pure groceries OF
confectionery, it will be we'll to keep in
| formed from time to time As to what progress
is being made. Now that the thing is
spoken Of, many persons will remember, nc
doubt. that in eating pulverized sugar. bon.
bons. and especially white candies. there i:
frequently left in the mouth something
clammy and insoluble, with a taste similal
to the slate pencils We used to uibole in ou
school days. That must be the ..kaolin'
we thear of. 1t is not a particularly haz
ardous diet. little heavy perhaps for del
icate stomach, but not poisonous The dis
couraging thing is tina. it is expensive. Th
] eating of clay should not be denied to thos
who enjoy it. but the rest of mankind shoul
not be forced to do so, at the rate of fron
ten cents to dollar pound. i

The number of human lives already de-
stroyed by the war in Europe can. as yet.
only be guessed at. 1t is within tho limits
of probability to say that at least 10000
men have been, up to the present time. sac
riiced in this contest. and many thousands
manned and mutilated, and it is likely that
before the conflict shall have been brought
to termination, as many more unfortunates
will be consigned to graves and hospitals.

WHAT IT CosTs TO KILL a MAN IN
WAR4We have some curious statistics
from French author, writing on contem-
porary wars, as to what it costs to kill a
man. He takes the whole expenditure for
each war. and divides that by the number
Of men killed ON tho field. or whose death
was owing directly to the war. In the Cri-
mean war, where many were congregated
in close quarters. he estimated that 65O-OOO
were killed. ut the cost of 81, l65 per man.
Putting the deaths in our late war al
16l QUO, whiclris rather low estimate. each
was purchased at cost of Sl6,725. Intne
late Mexican and South American wars, the
expense for killing a man was S4.5OO. In
the Danish war $500 lives were lost. at an
average of $4,000. In the Austria Prus-
sian campaign of 1866. which ended at Ss-
dowa. 81. 500 was the price per death. 1t
will thus be seen that it cost this govern
ment more to extinguish one life than any
Of the other countries mentioned, and that
the cost of killing man iG any of them
would maintain several in times of peace.

How TO BE NoBoDY.-It is easy to be
nobody. and we will tell bow to do it. Go
to the drinking saloon to pass your leisure
time. You need not drink much now; just
a little beer. or some other drink. In the
meantime, play dominoes. cheqaers. or
something else. to kill the time. SO that you
will be sure not to read useful books. If you
read, let it be the dime novels Of the day.
Thus go on keeping your stomach full and
your bead empty. and yourself playing time
killing games. and in few years you Win be
nobody, unless las is quite likely you
hould turn out drunkard or professional
gambler. either of which is worse than no
body. There are any number of young men
hanging about saloons. just ready. to gradu-
ate and be nobodies.

SWALLOWING SPIDERs.-A MISSISSIPPI
CUl:E FOR THE AGUE.-A singular death.
reported by a corresponding Of the Louis

Mr.. Pennington. stout, healthy farmer,
living about four miles from Iuha, had a
a slipht chill last Sunday. The day before
he was in excellen. health. Monday morn
ing he felt the approach of another chill and
Law down on the bed. After lying while.
he remarked to a member of his family that
spider webs were good for the chills. aud
that he believed lie wonld try the remedy.
Whereupon, he arose from the oed and gath
cred from the walls or ceiling of the room a
web in which were three '.spider balls" as
they are called, and swallowed them without
mole ado. Imme diately there vas heard
within his chest faint sound. as though the
balls had burst. and in ten minutes he was
dead. Very soon his lips, and the whole of
his face were greatly swollen by the action
