The Discovery Of LithOgraphy.

A writer says: After the first triumph
ant performance of Mozarts opera of
"Don Juan at Munich the theater was
deserted by all except one man. Alois
Sennefelder had still much to do. After
seeing carefully around the stage that no
sparks had ignited about the theater he
retired to his room to stamp the theater
tickets for the following day. AS he en-
tered the room he had three things in
his hands--a polished milestone for
razors, which he had purchased, ticket
stamp moistened with printers ink, and
check on the theater treasury for his
weeks salary. He placed the check on
a table, when gush of wind took it,
swept it high up in his room for a mo-
ment, and then deposited it in a basin
filled with water. Sennefelder took the
wet paper, dried it as we'll as he could.
and then to make sure of it weighed it
down with the milestone on which he
had carelessly before put the printing
stamp. Returning the following morn
ing he was surprised to see the letters of
the stamp printed accurately on the
damp paper. He gazed long at the
check, sudden thought flashed through
his brain; he wondered if by some
such means he could not save himself
the weary trouble he continually had
copying the songs of the chorus. That
very morning he went out and purchased
large stone, and commenced to make
experiments, and, as we all know, finally
succeeded in discovering the art of
printing from stone-lthography.

The Wolf and the Lamb.

A wolf one day, drinking from run
ming stream, observed q lamb also drink
ing from the same stream at some dis
lance from him.
81 have yet to learn" said the wolf,
addressing the lamb, with dignifed Sc
verify, "what right you have to muddy
the stream from which I am drink
ing
"Your premises are incorrect" re-
piled the lamb, with bland politeness,
"for if you will take the trouble to ex
anime the current critically you will OBJ
serve that it flows from you to me, and
that any disturbance of sediment here
would be, so far as you are concerned,
entirely local"
"Possibly you are right" returned
the wolf, "but, if I am not mistaken,
you are the person who, two years ago,
used some influence against me at the
primaries.
impossible" replied the lamb; "two
years ago I was not born"
"Ahl WE'LL" added the wolf, COM
posedly, 81 am wrong again. But it
must convince every intelligent person
who has listened to this conversation
that l am entirely insane, and conse-
quently not responsible for my actions. "
With this remark, he at once dis
patched the lamb, and was triumphantly
acquitted.

been greater blessing to the masses of Ameri-

century. Nothing else has done 30 much to
save the lives and health of the wives and

the land, Who as class most needed relief

Freaks Of a Mad Horse.

While son of Mr.. Perry Pearsall was
blowing with double team on Long
Island, one of the horses became unman-
ageable. The boys father and mother
went to his assistance. The horse sud
denly made plunge at the boy, and bit
his arm in frightful manner. The
horse then jumped upon the mother and
broke two of her ribs, and trampled her
80 that her life is despaired of. The
horse was got into the stable and tied
with a rope, which, however, was soon
broken, and the animal jumped and
plunged about the stable until he broke
his neck.
