matter, found that the lady was the
daughter of a distinguished southern
statesman, the former Governor OF q
State.
Before the war Gov. c., accom-
panied by his daughter, had Travelled in
Northern Africa. One day, mounted on
rather fiery horse, who had been de-
prived of water fer some time, the anil
NAL had made for running stream, and
floundering in quicksand had thrown
his lady rider. 1t happened that some
Arab women were near, who, drawing
the young lady from her perilous cOnd1-
tion, carried her to their tent. Here she
was undressed, all her European clothes
were taken from her, and she was clau In
complete Arab costume. In the act OF un-
robing the frightened girl, "a woman she re-
membered, had struck her quite a smart
blow on the arm not far from the elbow.
while another Arab woman, with small
earthenware pot, had daubed some black
substance on her arm. Presently, when
her father and the party arrived at Tie
Arab camp, the young lady was returned
without difficulty, the natives insisting
that the whole performance was nothing
but joke. The American girl felt some
slight soreness of the arm for day or
SO, when 1t all passed away, but IN a
week big blue butterfly, almost enclr-
cling the white arm, came out, and 1t was
evident that the young lady had been

A Canadian Hermit.

The Carleton Place (Canada1 Herald
prints the following story, with the
statement that, "incredible as it may ap-
pear, it is an authentic fact, to which
hundreds can bear testimony" About
forty years ago young man named
Wilson, residing near the town OF Perth, :,
conceived the lunatic idea of leading a
hermits life. The youth had from his
early age showed symptoms OF derange-
ment, and this proceeding on his part
was not considered strange by his
| friends.
| The chosen place of his hermitage was
/ Of about thret-4uarters OF mile from
his parental homes tead, in the recess of
u dense bush, where he erected small
novel, and furnished it with an old log
canoe, which he used as couch to sleep
in. DIvesting himself of all clothing he
has ever since remained perfectly nude,
with the exception OF q tattered remnant
of shirt, which his fancy leads him TO
retain. In this nude state. for forty
l years, he has lived, walking in the dep Lh

How Minister Got His We dding Fet

Recently minister, residing near
Crescent, went three miles fIem home
TO perform wedding ceremony, and his
experience is thus detailed by the Troy
Times: "After the couple had been pro-
nounced man and wife, the happy
groom drew up chair, and, seatlng
himself, said, in voice loud enough
to be heard all over the room: |:
Well, how much is itr The clergy
mans surprise may be easily imagined.
AS soon as he had recovered from it suf-
ficiently to do so, he replied, "Oh, l
never set any price on such little mat
ters." "Well," replied the groom, "but
1 want to know: How much is it?"
Anything you like" replied the clergy
man. s'That won't do," said the groom /;
"Pm bound to know, so you may as well
tell me-" Seeing that things were get
ting desperate, friend Of the newly
married man called him aside and whis-
pered to him. This seemed to do no
good, for, returning to the vacant chair,
the groom again commenced CONVEX
sation with the remark, "Pretty hard
times, amt itW eyes," replied the
clergyman. "Ohl come now," said
| Benedict, sstell me how much it is, and
nave done with it," But the minister
didn't tell, and the father of the bride
relieved him just then by remarking
that he would attend to the matter. And
thus it stood for while, when, to the
dominie's great surprise, the bride ap,
peared upon the scene. She walked uI
and laid three one-dollar bills upon his
knee, one at a time, counting In loud
voice as she did so, "One, two, three

that she was the "moneyed man" of the
