A Justifiable Strategem.

Chatting idly with the druggist, my
attention was attracted to girl who
hesitated moment at the door, and then
came in with rush, as if desrous of en-
tering before she could change her mind.
Going to the dark end of the shop, she
beckoned the druggist to move toward
her, and then carried on with him an an
mated conversation in whispers. What
she asked he evidently at first refused to
give; then, though she tried to conceal
her face, it could be seen that she was
pleading with him-explaining, prom
ising; then, with apparent reluctance and
many injunctions, he made up and gave
her a little package of powder, which, af-
ter paying for, she thrust into her bosom.
Then she hurried out, still aVerting her
face, which was curiously red and pale
by turns. "That girl wanted arsenic,
said the druggist, in explanation Of the
singular scene, (which of course | did
not give her. She wants it to poison rats
with, she says. Couldn't understand why
she should be refused it without doc.
tors order, and wouldn't give her name
aud address. Finally, on her promising
to be very careful in using it, and not to
let it fall in the way of any human be-
ings, gave her what she believes 10 be
arsenic. When she takes it she will be-
come dreadfully sick; she will immediate
ly repent and want to live, and she will
live and not try suicide again. see two
or three women of that sort every week.
If | didn't give them something they
would go on and find some of the idiots
abounding in our business who would be
more credulous or less conscientious. All
she needs is the lesson that a severe fright
will give her. Woman shrinks from phy-
sical pain, and if she takes poison it is
usually in a moment of passion or de-
spair, and in the majority of instances no
sooner has she swallowed it than the love
of life reasserts itself"

What | Overheard.

One day last summer, at the great Cen.
tennial Exhibition in Philadelphia,
overheard conversation that interested
me very much. The subject of it was a
queer little animal called gopher,
which sat up in a case, with its comical
little head perched up in the air; for il
wasn't even alive, but was poor little
stuffed gopher.
In front of the case l noticed two
farmers, who were talking about my little
friend in very earnest way;So listened
to their remarks.
"Yes," said one, ~ tell you he is a
dreadful creature to dig. Why, he makes
us sight of trouble out our way can't
keep anything, that he can dig for, away
from him."
SIS that sol' said the other man.
eyes. Why, | pay my boys five cents
for every one of em they catch; and it's
lively work getting 'em, tell you. See
his nose, now! doesn't that look SHARPE
tell you, when that fellow gets hold of
a job he keeps right at it There is no
giving up in him"
"Dear mel" thought l., show nice of
little gopher Ugly as he is, quite fell
in love with him." And drew nearer,
and showed, suppose, my interestin my
face; for the speaker turned around and
addressed me.
"Yes, ma'am, he steals my potatoes,
and does lots Of mischief. Just look at
those paws ofhis! Doesn't he keep them
busy, thought
"Are gophers so very industrious, then"
/ asked
"lndustriOus, ,ma'am Well, yes; they've
got the work in them, that's true; and, il
they begin anything, they'll see it through.
They don't sit down discouraged, and
give up; but they keep right on, even
when there's no hope. Oh, they're brave
little fellowsl" And the honest old
farmer beamed in admiration upon the
stiff, little unconscious specimen before
US in the case.
at is very interesting" said, "to know
of such patience in little animal like
this"
ayes, ma'am," he responded; "you
would think so if you could see one.
Why, working is their life. If they
couldn't work, they die. know, cause
I've proved it. Once, we caught one,
and put him in box, and my boys and
threw in some sand. The box was con-
siderably big, and the little fellow went
right to work. He dug, and threw it all
back of him over to the other side; then
back Of him again, till he went through
that sand don't know how many times.
Well, he was as lively as a cricket, and,
to try what he would do, took away the
sand, and twas but a few hours before
he was dead. Yes, dead, ma'am just as
dead as this one, here!" pointing with his
finger to our friend in the case, who pre-.
served stolid indifference to the fate OF
his gopher-cousin.

tie gopher" with whom | felt pretty well

Turk and Locomotive.

Ihe Turks are superstitious, believing
IN genli and demons, to whom thew at,
tribute any physical effect which passes
their comprehension. An English enoi-
neer, engaged in building a railway in
Bulgaria, thus describes the effect of the
first locomotive in that country:
we often used to say, writes Mr.. Bark
ley, won't the locomotive astonisb the
Turks when it first begins to turn9"
At last the day arrived, and ais we went
up and down the first few miles, whis-
tling loudly, we cast our eyes up to the
town above to see the crowds rush out
Twenty or thirty slipshod rayahs came
loungng out, and fewTurkish children,
but not one full-grown Turk, and those,
we passed hardly looked at the train, and
showed no astonishment. After the trains
had been running for month, | asked
my servant Mustapha what he thought of
it. He answered.
"Tehellaby, | have not seen it; | am a
man, and don't go running after sights.
like child"
"Man or child, Mustapha, if YOU don't
go to see it tomorrow | will make YOU
eat pork, for won't live with such an
uninteresting fool"
He did go and lock next day, and not
only that, but afterward, over cup of
coffee at the khan, listened to lecture
on steam engines, delivered by Turk
who understood them.
"rhey may be very fine things, Tehel-
laby, and you English may make them
useful; but God defend Mu,sulmap
from having anything to do with them.
We don't like demons and their works.
even if we could catch one, and are
quite content with the means of locomo-
ton we now possess. Nothing can equal
horse, and a bullock cart is enough for
anyone"
"What do you mean about demons2'
l asked.
"Why, Tehellaby, is it not fact, as the
lecturer told us, that in England you trap
strong young demon, and shut him up
in that great tirebox on wheels, and pay
him for doing so by giving him cold wa
ter to allay his torturesE"
| afterwards talked to lots of villagers
about this, and found the demon theory
had taken deep root, and often | have
seen man stripped, scourging and rub
bing at his garments, because drop of
water from n passing locomotive had fall
en- on them, which he believed to have
been introduced by the demon splitting.
