He Rose to the Occasion.

Nowhere excepting in this free and
beautiful country Of ours could an incl
dent combining the humorous and prac-
tical have occurred like the following:
1t was between Mr.. Bliss, conductor
on the Chicago and Rock Island rail
road, whose height is five feet, and Mr..
Henry, q passenger, who stood seven
feet in his stockings. Mr.. Henry put
his ticket in his hat band, and stood
himself up when the brief conductor
came along. Mr.. Bliss could not reach
the ticket, even when standing ON his
toes, and his unavailing efforts to do SO
made all the passengers laugh con-
sumedly." But he rose TO the occasion.
Without changing countenance, he
brought step-ladder, leaned it against
the elongated Henry, climbed up to and
picked of the ticket, and went on as
though nothing had happened. Rather
good, and very American.-Harper's

A curious though awkward accident
happened to q clergyman Of this city
who was being shown the points of in
terest around the city by one of his
parishioners. Among other places they
visited q wharf commanding o view Of
our grand old river. The reverend
gentleman became absorbed in contem-
plation of the prospect before him, and
forgetful of the broken plank behind
him in the dilapidated wharf. Suddenly
stepping backward, he found himself
falling, and instinctively grasped his
friend by the shoulder with one hand
and threw his other arm around his
waist, and both fell into the opening,
which proved to be too small to let them
into the deep and rapid current beneath.
United they filed the mouth of the
yawning abyss, which gaped wide
enough to swallow either Of them alone.
The union of pastor and people was
never better illustrated under any cir
cumstances; the two clung together
like Damon and Pythias, and formed
q suspension bridge across the horrid
chasm with their interlaced bodies, un-
til, by the exercise of herculean efforts
and acrobatic contortions. they struggled
out of their perilous position and re-
gained their perpendicular, when the
minister complimented his companion
with the remark, "Well, You are . good
man to cling to. Are all the members
Of the parish like your" "Oh, yes"
was the answer "we are all bound to
give our pastor good support. ."-Ports-
mouth IN. H. States and Union.

THE New Orleans waterworks have

A GOOD joke is related on one of the
most prominent bankers in Lynchburg,
Va. While marketing several days since
he inquired of an old negro woman the
price of Strawberries. She informed him
that they were fifteen cents per quart,
but, "bein' twas him, if he'd take three
quarts they might 60 for half dollar
he decided to take the three quarts, and
it was some time afterward that the
thought struck him that he had been

Tenacity Of Vegetable Life.

The duration and tenacity Of public
life, a. seen in the length of time during
which the seeds Of certain plants will re-
tain their vitality, are truly wonderful.
We may cite the following example:
Lord Lindsay states that, in the
course Of his wanderings amid the pyra-
mids Of Egypt, he stumbled ON . mum
my. proved by its hieroglyphics to be
1900 year old. In examining this
mummy after it was unwrapped he
found in Of disclosed hands Q tuberous
or bulbous root. He was interested in
the question how long vegetable life
could last, and he therefore took that
tuberous root from the mummyis hand,
and planted it in . sunny soil, allowed
the rains and dews of heaven to descend
upon it, and in the course of q few
weeks, to his astonishment and Joy, the
root burst forth and bloomed into o
beauteous dahlia.
The roots Of many plants retain their
vitality under intense temperatures.
Certain plants, also, may, by their
roots. absorb some poisons which would
be destructive to others. The seeds on
which birds have fed will retain their
power Of termination during long Pc
rod Birds that feed on the seed Of the
castor oil plant have been known to
bear them in their bodies from one
country TO another, where they have

Thanks to some singular statisrcs
just published, for the authenticity Of
which, however, I should hesitate to
vOuch, a mystery that has long hung
over our dinner tables is cleared up.
English travellers or residents in France
must, like myself, have often wondered
where all the fowls that figure daily in
menus at every hotel, restaurant and
private house in the country, at no mat
ter what season of the year, can possibly
come from. The supply appears to be
inexhaustible, and that it is 80 prncti-
cally is proven by the announcement
that France contains no fewer than 4O,-
OOO, 600 hens, which are followed by a
train of 100, 600, 900 chickens, about a
tenth part of these latter being destined
for the duties of propagation. The 4O,-
0O0, 600 hens lay annually four milliards
of eggs, which, at the rate of 6 centimes
each-a trile over halfpenny-the
price paid to the breeder, realize sum
Of 240, 900, 900 francs. If to this amount
be added the proceeds from the sales of
fowls, whether lean or fat, and taking
into consideration also the surplus vrlue
attaching to eggs and birds by reason of
city tolls, the total arrived at is set down
at the almost fabulous figure of $50, ,OOO,-
600 francs, or more than half a milliard,
produced annually by French poultry
yards. Neither ducks nor geese nor
turkeys are included in these calcula-
tons; If they were the gross sum would
have been increased by several hundreds
Of millions Of francs. So, accepting this
census as tolerably near the mark, we
may henceforth cease to he surprised at
the vast amount of chicken bones daily
picked IN France.

The Cucumber.

The extent to which this vegetable is
consumed by the inhabitants Of Egypt
and the Southwest of Asia, and also In
European Russia and Germany, would
scarcely seem credible to this country.
You never see q Russian peasant at din.

certainly q singular dish to be 20 ma

that of Russia. Some writer's say tina,
there used to be great annual fair al
Leipsic for cucumbers, when the streets
were heaped up . story high with that
precious element of German cookery.
