SUPERSTITION OF VAMPIREs.-The
Pail Mall Gazette says: From Il case
now before the high tribunal at Berlin
we learn that the superstition of YAM
pires-corpses who are supposed to rise
from their graves at night and suck the
blood of those with whom they held
intercourse in life-is still general
among the Police and Magyars. A po-
fish gentleman died at his country seat
at Roslasin in February last, leaving
his family in excellent health. A few
weeks after his death, however, his
eldest son was suddenly and unac-
countably taken i'll, his short sickness
ending in death. Similar cases, though
not fatal, occurred among his near rel
atives. It was at once agreed that the
deceased must be vampire, and that
bis visits were the cause of their re-
-peated illness. TO save himself from
the fate of his brother, the second son
determined to apply the supposed only
remedy, viz: to exhume the body, cut
Off his head and lay it with the feet,
while another person was to collect the
blood issuing from the wound to give
to the remaining relatives to drink
He obtained the assistance of labor
er, naturally at a heavy price, but was
prevented on his first expedition by
the interference of the parish priest.
The next attempt proved more sue
cessful, the deed was accomplished.
1t had been observed, however, by
some person in the village, and was
thus brought to the knowledge of the
authorities. The absurd superstition
threatens to cost the desecrator of the
churchyard a three months imprison-
ment. That was the verdict in the
first instance, and, though the Court
Appeals has cancelled the sentence,
the High Tribunal seems resolved to
confirm it.

TALE OF A HANDKERCHIEF.-There
is one touching incident in the life of
William Writ. In his younger days he
was a victim to the passion for intoxi-
eating drinks. Alfianced to a beauti-
full and accomplished young woman, he
had made and broken repeated pledges
of amendment, and she, after patiently
and kindly enduring his disgraceful
habit, had at length dismissed him,
deeming him incorrigible. Their next
meeting, after his dismissal, was in a
public street i'll the city of Richmond.
William Writ lay drank and asleep on
the sidewalk, on hot summer day,
the rays of the sun pouring down on
his uncovered head, and the flies craw-
ling over his swollen features.
As the young lady approached in her
walk, her attention was attracted by
the spectacle, strange to her eyes, but
alas! so common TO others who knew
the victim, as to attract little remark.
She did not at first recognize the sleep
er, and was about to hasten on, when
she was led by one of those impulses
which form the turning points in hu-
man life, to scrutinize his features
What was hey emotion when she re-
cognized in him her discarded lover !!
She drew forth her handkerchief and
carefully spread it over his face, and
hurried away. When Writ came to
himself he found the handkerchief, and
in one corner the initials of the be-
loved name. With heart almost
breaking with grief and remorse, he
made q new vow of reformation. He
kept that vow and married the owner
Of that handkerchief.

A GALA DAY IN BERLIN.-The capt.
tai of the'new German empire witness
ed last Friday one of the most magnifi-
cent pageants of modern times. The
victorious army made its formal entry
in triumph, headed by the Emperor
and all the great generals of the war.
Vast crowds from every part of Ger
many lined the streets and filed the
public, places and received the vete-
rams with the widest enthusiasm. In
some instances the lines were broken
by the populace, and the soldiers were
crowned with wreaths and flowers.
The captured eagles and standards

sion, and two thopsanwcannon. taken
from the French, formed a part of the
great show. The Emperor's path was
streWEn with flowers rs he advanced by
a hundred maidens dressed in white,
When the march was concluded the
Emperor, in the presence of all the
dlgnitaries of the empire, unveiled the
new statue of his father, King Frede-
rick William III. He made a speech
in which he proclaimed that the peace
so dearly achieved should be lasting
one. Many decorations were distribu-
ted. Won Room was made o count of
the empire, and Won Moltke field-mar-
shall of the imperial army. At night
Berlin was brilliantly illuminated.

REMOVING WALNUT STAINs.-Slices
Of ripe pear or a green apple are re-
commended for the removal of walnut
stains from the hands, the stains being
simply rubbed with the slices of fruit,
The cleansing power is considered to
be due entirely to the organic acid con-
tanned; and it is, therefore,, suggested
that u little citrid acid or lemon juice
would frequently be much more readi-
ly obtainable. The great secret OF
success is to avoid the use of soap be-
fore thoroughly removing the stains
with the acid for the all1ali in the
soap acts as q mordaut and fixes the
color, which the acid would otherwise
remove, After the acid has been used,
nothing but pure water should DO en-
ploycd for rinsing.

Card Playing.

The Albany correspondent Of the
New York Sun, in a recent letter, re-
lates the following:
The present universal game of draw
poker was seldom heard of at Albany
or Washington 20 or 80 years ago
Brag was the fashionable play in those
days. 1t was Henry Clay's great
game, and two Of our old State Attor-
ney Generals-George p. Barker and
John Van Buren-had great passion
for it. George P. Barker was one of
the most accomplished orators that
Western New York ever produced, and
he played as well as he spoke. John
Van Buren's favorite expression when
tic went better, was "Come in now,
and III make you run like the cholera"
JOHN played the present Judge Peck
ham, of the Court. of Appeals, a game
of brag for the nomination for the At
torney Generalsllip in 1916, and beat
him. On the same night he laid out

Seward, did you ever hear that joke
that occurred between him and the

THAT was the Governors great game,
and Oh slis occasion he achieved great
victory. He was On his way by stage
from Albany to Cherry Valley, and oc-

country. Somehow or other the Gov.

and the Governor set to playing or

and as he was putting away the, cards
he said: 49,

The Governor hesitated, but. finally
made himself known as Governor Sew.

conqueror, and exclaimed: ~
"Look a here, you little cuss, yor
can't fool me in this way. Thurlov
Weed is Governor of the State of New
York, and you amt Thurlow Weed by

The Governor thought the joke was
such good one that he used to tell il

BE SoCIAL.-Men who isolate them
selves from society, and have no near
and dear family ties, are tho most un-
comfortable of human beings. Byron
says: Happiness was born a twin y
but the phrase though pretty and poet
ic, does not SO far enough. We are
generous, and not intended to march
through life either single or double
file. The man who cares for nobody,
and for whom nobody cares, has moth
ing to live for that will pay for the
keeping of the soul and body together.
You must have a heap of embers to
have a glowing fire. Scatter them
apart and they will become dim and
cold. So to have brisk vigorous life,
you must have a group of lives, to
keep each other warm, as it were, to
afford each mutual encouragement and
confidence and support. If you wish
to live the life ora man and not of q
fungus be social, be brotherly, be
charitable, be sympathetic, and labor
earnestly for the good of your kind.

u Mrs. Bella French lectured in a
Western town not long ago on "Cor-

respondence of the Chatfeld (Ohio)
Democrat says: "Her lecture has had
a telling influence on onr Inhabitants.
Every man in our village has left off
wearing corsets, and most of the wo-
men have quit chewing tobacco and
drinking whiskey."
