part of the refreshments. Just be-
fore the assemblage was about to dis

bearing two glasses Of wine. He

himself; saying significantly, "l.et us

ing dentist, who in due time was ena-
bled to supply the deficiency from the
dental store Of a handsome but inn
pecunious Spaniard. The tooth took
root and made itself at home in the
lady's mouth. From the hundred
dollars he received for the prize the
foreigner was enabled To establish a
prosperous business. In the meantime
the minds of both young penons had
been busted in wondering, the one
over the origin and the other over the
destination OF that tooth. One eve

smiled aud casually mentioned the
cause of the vacancy in the front row

Getting ouf Of q serape.

The doctrine of metempsychosis, or
transmigration of souls, is still taught
by the Brahmins of Malabar, and an
English Captain had nearly fallen a
victim to its effects. Trading along
the coast, he one day went ashore,
when he unluckily shot bird called
perumel, which is supposed to carry
one Of their gods Of the first rank. A
Malabrian saw it, and accused him of
the enormous crime; the people in the
neighboring villages Immediately as
sembl ed. seized the sacreligious Eng
lishman, and would have sacrificed
him on the spot had it not been for
the presence Of mind of a jew who
CHANGED to he present. He advised
the Captain to confess the crime. but
to assign as his reason for committing
it that his father. who had been dead
some time, was thrown into the sea,
and had become carp; the perumel
was going to devour the carp before
his eyes, when the recollection of his
father rushed upon him and he shot
the bird. The judges we're struck
with the apparent justice of the plea,
and instantly pardoned the criminal.

lost his wife and two children in the
Princess Alice disaster, and was des-
perate. His wife was produced in

sympathies were so exercised that he
got confused, and thought il was his

says the River Falls Gdzettc w,
suppose many people think that th,
newspaper men are persistent duns
Let a farmer place himself in a simi
lar position and see IL he would do the
same. Suppose he raises 900 bush
els of wheat and his neighbor should
come and buy a bushel, and the price
was a small matter Of 81 or less, and
he says, 81 will hand you the amount
in a few days" AS the farmer does
not want 10 be small about the matter
he says all right, and the man leaves
with his wheat. Another comes in
the same way until the whole 81 900
bushels Of wheat are trusted out to
one thousand different persons, and
not one Of the persons concerns him
self about it, for il is n small amount
he owes the farmer and of course that
would not help him any. He does
not realize that the farmer has fritted
away all his crop Of wheat and that
its value is due him in a thousand lit
tie driblets, and he is seriously en-
barrassed in his business because his
debtors treat it as a small matter. But
if all would pay him promptly. which
they could do as well as not, it would
be a very large amount to the farmer,
and enable him to carry on his busi-
ness without difficulty. The above
comparison is too true a statement Of
the difficulties that the newspaper
man has to contend with.

One of the largest establishments for
the manufacture OF lampblack is at
Petrolia, Pa. The method Of produc-
tion is remarkable. The flames of sew
eral thousands gas jets are made TO
impinge against sheets of slate, on
which the smoke Of fine carbon is de-
posted, just as a piece of glass is
smoked when held over a candle flame.
When a sufficient deposit of the smoke
has formed on the slates, it is scraped
of, packed and sent to the market.
The gas which supplies this lampblack
comes from the ground near the works.
Besides its oil wells, Petrolia is cele-
brated for its wonderful gas wells,
which furnish inexhaustible supplies
Of fuel for steam engines, heating,
cooking, etc. From Petrolia to Pitts
burg there is an oil pipe line by which
oil is driven to market by force pumps,
operated by steam power; the boilers
being heated by gas supplied by one
of the gas wells. We almost wonder
that the Petrolia people do not intro.
duce the use of gas engines and thus
dispense with the use of steam boilers.

A drowning man from the Princess

A drowning man from the Princess

"could not do it for that price"
"Tll give you el0" screamed the
half-drowned man.

but without avail, and all he could

man, who said he might, if he liked
take the law on him." The bOatman
means IN go TO law, and he has com
menced an action against the man foI

There is some reason for young girls
going crazy over a clergyman, but
there Is none for the married women.
Yet few of these would ruin them

a chance. Especially is this the case
where husband is careless and makes
little of his wife at home. II he will
not consent to be the home idol, the
minister is exalted to that position,

Preachers should "boil down" their
sermons. A mass of verbiage to ex.
press a few facts will always tire and
weary the most patient Christian list
ener. To have moral AMI spiritual
effectiveness a sermon should be strong,
and to be strong il should be brief.
Brevity is not inconsistent with grace
and elegance. A valuable idea, ex-
pressed with a super-abundance Of
words, from that very fact will lose
its value, and its essential qualities
will be made invisible by its prolixity.
Church-goers are always attracted by
the preacher who "boils down" his
sermons.
