II years been totally blind, awoke one
morning about two weeks ago and be-
gan peeripg about the room, remarking
to her friends that she believed she

since then her eyes have constantly
grown stronger and her sight is now re-

TIE amount of labor performed by
bees in collecting honey may be seen
from certain calculations made by Mr..
Andrew Wilson. He finds that 125
heads of clover yield approximately one
gramme of sugar (about Isl grains),
and that 125, 900 heads yield one kilo-
gramme (2.2 pounds. Now, As each
head of clover contains about 60 florets,
it follows that the bees must suck T.
500, 600 distinct fiorets in order to OBJ
tain 2 LIS pounds of sugar. And Is
honey roughly may be said to contain
Is per cent. Of sugar, we have one kiio-
gramme, equivalent TO 5000, 900 low
ers in round numbers, or say 2,50O, 900
visits for one pound of honey.

Not Deservingo OF Pitv


Beggared spendthrifts, to whom
money has no exchange value but
pleasure.
Persons who will persist in dying
by inches with dyspepsia and liver
diseases, when DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery and Pleasant
Purgative Pellets are unfailing rem.
edies for these maladies.
Parents who spare the rod and
ruin the child. Fast young men
and women are generally spoiled
children to begin with.
People who suffer with catarrh.
when DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy
is a safe, reliable, and well-tested
remedy for this loathsome disease.
People who marry for money
and find too late that the golden
glitter is all moonshine.
Women who suffer death every
day of their lives, when DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription will effectu-
ally remove those painful weakness
ses and impart healthful tone and
strength to the whole system.
People who live beyond their
means and find that style and pride,
like everything else in this world,
unless placed upon a secure founda-
ton, are subject to the law of grav-
itation.
Invalids who do more toward fos-

Every physician knows how much
recovery depends upon good nurs-

the sick room. Chronic diseases are
especially subject to these condi-

BaYard Taylor.

Edmund c. Stedman, speaking of
Bayard Taylor, says "NO man in
the country could do so much Jour
nalistic work, and do it SO well in a
given time, as could Mr.. Taylor.
He was remarkable in brilliant off
hand feats of literary criticism. As
an illustration he mentions that
about a year ago two large octave
volumes, containing poems by Vic
tor Hugo, in the French, arrived by
steamer and were placed in Mr..
TaylOr'S hands on Thursday eve
ming. For some reason it was desir-
able that the criticism should APP
pear in the Tribune on the follow
ing Saturday, and of course the copy
had to be in the printers hand ear
ly on Friday night. Mr.. Taylor's
health was bad at the time, and he
also had in the meantime to deliver
a lecture in Brooklyn, and another
in New York. He finished his re-
view in time on Friday night, and
it appeared in the Tribune the fol-
lowing morning, covering more
than twO-thirds of page. 1t was
equal" says Mr.. Stedman, "to any
of his literary criticisms, and sur
passed any analysis of Hugo's ge-
MUS that / have ever seen. One re-
markable feature of the review was
over a column of translation into
English poetry from the original,
including several lyrics and idyls so
beautifully done that they seemed
like original poems in the English.

Like MiraRe.

A very perfect and beautiful
mirage was seen in st. Thomas,
Ont, recently. The town is twenty
miles from Port Stanley. The
Journal of the former place says:
The On-Iookers could see the lake
as it were only a few rods off, and
the waves rolling in regular success
sion towards the shore. Three
steamers were speeding towards the
East, the smoke from their tunnels
steaming behind them, while a
couple Of vessels under sail were
pursuing their steady course. They
could see the lay of the land for a
considerable distance along the
coast, but it seemed As if some banks
interviewed TO prevent a view of
Port Stanley. The opposite coast of
America was so distinctly visible
that they could perceive the inden-
tatiOns and formations Of the shore,
the very trees, and a town away to
southeastward, the buildings of
which were plainly discernible. Mr..
Cook was of the opinion that the
town was AShtabula. The meridian
sun was shining brightly all the
time, and an Opaque cloud, fringed
with pink, stretched along the
southern sky from east to west.
Under this cloud the mirage ap-
peared, after for some time present
ing the scene described, faded and
gradually dissolved away in the di-
rection of Buffalo.

Amother.svo,ce.

Since the prevailing Indian trOub-
les commenced an Indian camp was
captured, together with a number
of prisoners, including squaws and
some half-dOzen white captives,
boys and girls, from five to twelve
years of age. Word was sent through
out the country inviting those who
had lost children to come to the
camp and identify, if possible, their
children, as none of them could give
any account of who their parents
were, or where they were taken
from, so young were they when
they were taken captive by the In
dians. Numbers went to the camp
many more than there were chill
dren-and, of course, many of them
returned with heavy hearts at be-
ing unable to find their lost ones.
Among the number who went hun
dreds of miles to the camp was a
mother who had lost two children
a boy and girl, one three and the
other five years Old-years ago. Eff
forts were made to persuade her not
to go, and so long a time had
elapsed it was certain she could not
identify her children even if they
stood before her. But she could not
rest she must go, and go she did.
On arriving at the encampment she
found the captives ranged in a line
for inspection. She looked at them
first from a distance, her anxious
heart bounding in her bosom. But
she did not see her children-at
least she saw nothing in the group
that bore the slightest resemblance
to her baby boy and girl as they
looked when playing about her
doorstep. She drew nearer and
peered deep into the eyes of each,
who only returned her look with a
stony gaze, yet anxious One-they,
too, hoping to see something in her
that would tell them she was their
mother. She looked long and stead
lily at them, as her heart began to
sink and grow heavy in her bosom.
At last, with tears and sObS she
withdrew, and when some PAGES
off she stopped and turned about
quickly, as apparently a thought
had occurred to her. Drying her
eyes she broke forth into a sweet
hymn she had been wont to sing to
her children as lullaby. Scarce a
line had been uttered when two of
the captives, a boy and girl, rushed
from the line eXclaiming, "Mam-
ma mamma !" The mother went
home perfectly satisfied she had
found her lOng-lOSt children.

Accomplishment Of western


Two miners We're seated on a
bowlder alongside the road to Su-
trO, discussing the kicking powers
of the mules. One had just returned
from Sutro and the other was on
his way there, and having met near
rock they sat down for a talk.
Have you quit over there ?'' said
the one who was eastward bound.
"Yes.''
"Why?"
"Mules."
"'Fraid of 'em?''
"You bet. L saw one Yesterday
alongside an old boiler kickin' OF
the rivet heads one by one. Never
missed one. / was Just going on
shift, and when / saw the mule and
heard there was one of 'em inside,
threw up my job. I've got a wife
and three children depending on
me, and don't take no chances. /"
1.-THE worst mule l ever saw"
said the other was in Phoebe some
years ago. 1t was one l owned.
One day it rubbed against some
nails sticking out of a post, and it
turned around and drove in the
nails one by one, using d single blow
of the hoof, with the iron shoe on,
for each nail. 1t never missed it's
kick, and always drove 'ern just in
to the head. Then it saw few
tacks on the post a little lower
down, which were only half driven
in. With light taps of the hoof he
also drove them in, Just as gentle
and easy as could be. One day a
man came along and set out can
of nitrO-glyeerine and giant powder.
He wanted the mule to kick it and
get killed. / saw him about the
corral with the the can, and knew
| what was up. At first | was going
to stop him, but then / thought if
my mule was any kind of mule at
all no could take care of himself.
| So just watched. Well, the mule
saw the can, and, walking up,
| smelt of it, and then squared him
self for the kick. The man was
sneaking off, and just as the mule
was going to kick the can, he caught
| sight of the fellow and changed his
position so that his tail was toward
the man. He lei fly his right hoof.
The can went flying through the air
and hit the man square between the
shoulders just as he was gettin' over
a fence about a hundred feet away.
The thing exploded and / never
saw the man again. But next
morning Pat Halland came out in
| the Record and said that the town
| had been visited by a shower of
blood"

Beauty at the Bath.
PHILADELPHIA Item.

A funny incident befell one of
Philadelphia bellies last week,
which happened in this wise: In a
certain fashionable residence, upon
a fashionable street, the bathroom
adiOins an apartment which is used
as the family sitting-rOOm. The
charming Miss H, having con-
cluded her additions, rose from the
bath-tub as fresh and beautiful as
Venus from the waves of the sea.
Into the sitting-rOom she fluttered
for an article of toilet she had left
hanging in the closet, with but one
scant garment covering up the
shapely form, the dainty feet also
guiltleSs of shoe or stocking. What
was her surprise and horror as she
stood within that closet to hear the
voice of a servant ushering a live
man through the very door of the
sitting-room. Here was a dilemma
and no mistake. The young lady
hastily closed the closet door, and,
peering through, discovered to her
great horror that it was a young
man who had come to tune the
piano, and that the servant had
gone and the gentleman, sole pos
SCISSOR of the room, had opened the
instrument and settled down to bus
iness. To add to her greater dis
comfort, a window in the closet
stood wide open, through which
the afternoon breeze came in crisp
and chilly gusts. All unconscious
and alone, the young man worked
steadily on, humping the Eeys and
turning the wires, while the young
lady peeped and listened in an ag-
ony of suspense and intense discOm-
fort. A long mortal hour passed by,
and the piano-tuner worked away,
when, as good luck must have di-
rected, the young lady's mamma
entered the room, and, going to the
closet, ''opened the door. The man
at the piano was startled by a low
crv of establishment, and the next
moment was mysteriOusly invited
to step into the next room for a
moment. AS no reasonable excuse
was offered him, he returned to his
work wondering what kind OF
shelton that closet contained, which
had evidently caused the remarka-
BILE and seemingly uncalled-for pro-
ceeding on the part of the lady OF
house, When he reads this he will
he able to solve the mystery.
