The Earth In an Ague Fit.

There is a line in Shakespeare to the
effect that "Earth was feverous, and
did shake Certain it is, that during
the past six months this old globe of
ours has had chill. Not only was our
winter exceptionally severe and our
spring late and tempestuous, but the
same phenomena were perceptible over
the entire Northern hemisphere. Such
winter storms were never known in
England and France; and now the news
reaches US from Japan and Eastern
China that 80 much snow and ice have
not been seen in those countries since
the beginning of the present century.
Can it be that we have reached some
point in the interstellar spaces which is
unusually refrigerated, or has our sun
been shorn of some of his beams. Sci
entists say once in every ten thousand
two hundred years the earth loses its
center of gravity and topples over.
There is such an accumulation of ice ut
thel Pole that the earth tits sideways
and a new axis is made. 1t is in this
way that the glacial action, seen all over
the earth, is accounted for. What if,
while we are searching for the North
Pole, our little planet should capsize,
the plane Of the Pole become coincident
with that of the Equator, and some new
point, say Coney Island or San Francis
co, become the new center of the Arctic
circle! All this may seem very wild,
but such things have happened on this
globe of ours, and may again. Demon,

inmigrantrailroad tickets to Immigrants
to the West from Tennessee, and one of
his queerest customers was an old citi-
zen of White County named VIM. L.
Lewis, aged n years, the possessor of
the venerable tile above referred to. Mr..
Brown was struck with its antiquated ap-
pearance, and asked the old man. how
long he had worn it. The ancient i'm
migrant replied: I've worn that or.
hat now forty-five years." Mr.. Brown
desired to obtain it, and the old gentle,t
man readily consented to give it up If
Mr.. Brown would show him where to
get new ono, which vas done, and the
old citizen, with . new hat andga ticket
for : the iArkansss,.' has .journeyed
toward the setting sun. Mr.. Brown
has placed the old hat on exhibition 1t
the Exposition, where it will no doubt
attract curious and interested investiga-
ton. It is the most .dilapidated speci-
men Of old hat that has been seen for
many a day. During the period of near

weather-beaten features the wearer had
never seen railroad or . locomotive

When at home at Hawarden on
Sunday Mr.. Gladstone always reads the

hear the Premier perform this duty.
Lord Denman. a friend of the do
nestle quadruped creation, drives a
horse about the streets of London that
wears spectacles. The animal was
found to be near-sighted, and its owner
has successfully tried the experiment OF
remedying the defect in the same way
as is done with human beings.
Grown Prince Rudolph gave to his
bride wedding present of charming,
little pony.carriage ornamented with
gold and two uncommonly small ponies
of the most beautiful shape and color.

There is bit of romance yet in the
Austrian Empress heart, though she is
credited with being such an Amazon.
She cherishes in a beautiful jeweled box,
not 2 stone of great price, but little
faded nosegay of edelweiss, that noun
tain flower. white and delicate as q
snowflake, which Austrian peasants at.
tach to their button-holes as a sign OF
love. The little nosegay was given the
Empress by her husband the time they
were betrothed.
-Apropos Of the Royal Austrian mar
rage, it is related that when the Queen
of the Belgians, mother of the bride,
crossed the Belgian frontier at her mar
riage she wore a bonnet trimmed with
artificial grapes. Being tired with her
reception, she took tho bonnet off and
laid it on one side, when an officer of
the escort, anxious for souvenir Of the
day, surreptitiously picked off a grape.
A comrade followed suit, the example
spread, and soon all the trimming was
ripped off, next the strings disappeared,
and lastly the straw itself, bit by bit.
When the Queen looked for her bonnet
it had vanished, and she resumed her
journey with a very dubious opinion Of
her daughters future subjects.
The abolition of primogeniture has
had the greatest effect, within the pres
ent century, in emptying the chateaux
and castles in France. Fortunes have
so often been divided down that there
are fewer great incomes than there were
among the French aristocracy. 1t thus
happens that French nobleman who
inhabits a chateau may only have fur.
nished one nook of it, and his roomy
stables may have only one or two horses
at the stalls. TO withstand the effects
of the abolition of primogeniture, many
French families agree to enjoy their
revenue in common. But full chateaux,
with several generations of relatives in
them, even under the methodical life Of
Frenchmen, may not be permanently
successful. .,.'I.. .l..g.Go
