Flint.Stone Soup.

y good story is told Of two soldiers,
one of whom went without broth.
while the other made it OF excellent
quality Of a nint-stonc The FIRST
legged at every door Of a whole village
which they had just entered for all the
materials Of simple broth but the vii
layers told him he a,kcl too much,
and shut their doors in his face
His comrade, however. picked up a
stone, knocked at the nearest door. a-d
asked If they would be so good as to
ohlige him with pot in which to boil
the stone. Even niscr would have
granted SO modest a request They
lent him the pot, and soon the willy
soldier was boiling a large stone under
the curious eyes Of half dozen 10y
standers
Gould one Of you give me little
salt = the cook asked. The salt was
given.
4 minute later. he observed, "a
few herbs make a pleasant seasoning
for stone soup. but must manage for
once 10 relish without perfect flavor. :"
In tricc, one Of the spectators threw
bundle Of herbs in the pot. saying.
$50 clever a fellow should have soup to
his taste. when he shows us how to
make II Of stone"
\ few minutes later. the advcnturer
remarked, stone broth is good. but
there is no question that scrap OF
beef or Bacon brings out the flavor OF
the flint" Another kind spectator al
once supplied him with a piece OF
bacon.
Half an hour had not passed since
his arrival in the village when the
soldier was enjoying an excellent and
substantial repast made Of the materi.

The Popcse Indians.

4 gentleman II Montreal, Canala
on fishing excursion in the northern
part Of the province ~ New Bruins
wick. discovered a small tribe Of In
dians calling themselves Popese The
narrator describes them as differing in
important respects from the typical In
dian, yet ycritablo Indians Upon in
quiry Of the chief. man Of fine bear
ing. il was found that a tradition had
been handed down from father to son
that they originally came from the
coast Of Maine; that in ancient times
"a colony Of white men came from over
the seas 70 their former home and dur
ing their stay intermarricd with the
young girls Of the tribe Hence tho
difference between them and other
tribes OF Indians.
As singu' ar testimony TO their tradi-
tion. the chief brought from his tent a
sword Of English make. on the worn
scabbard of which was legibly in
scribcd the letter "P." and, more cu-
rious relic still. an ancient tattered
English prayer-book. Though no one
Of the tribe could read 1t, yet II had
been sacredly guarded. Upon the
narrator's return to Montreal no inn
mediately instituted inquiries and soon
was convinced that these were the de
scendants Of the noted Popham colony
Of 1607-S. that the sword was none
other than the sword Of their progeni-
tor, the illustrious Popham. and the
prayer-book was one in use by that
colony. Evidently tho tribal name
Popese is a contraction Of Pophamese.

Just as He Said II.

An excited gentleman. who took OK

the other day to demand a correction.

in newspaper apologies; that they
were generally an aggravation of the
original ofTense and 10 guard against
any such possibility he insisted that
iust what he would dictate should he
printed in contradiction and precisely
as he uttered it.
Perhaps the gentleman did not con
slider that. as he had very bad cold in
the head. his caution to print his re-
marks precisely as he uttered them"
would involve his name somewhat
ridiculous, for he was especially EN-
phatic in saving that he ''did dot wadt
ady dodscds about It," but having
agreed TO his demand, we feel in honor
bound to abide by our promise, and

An Odd Method Of Defense.

oldest OF all defensive methods is
that of snapping off the tail. The
blind-worm. or slow-worm, is a little
snake-like lizard common In the old
world. When alarmed IL contracts its
muscles in such manner and degree as
to break its tail of at a considerable
distance from the end. But how can
this aid it2 The detached tail then
dances about very lively. holding the
attention Of the offender. while the
lizard himself sinks away. And for
a considerable time the tail retains its
capability of twisting and jumping
every time II is struck. The lizard will
then grow another tail, so as TO be
prepared for another adventure. There
are other lizards which have a similar
power, though in less degree.

How Cold Waves Travel.

Cold waves, so called, name for
which We are indebted 10 recent mete-
geological science, do not appear 10
move in some instances much faster
than railroad express train. They
vary, however, in their rate Of motion.
Where do they come from: II IS not
easy 10 say. It might be found, If one
could travel at express speed from the
mountains Of Montana, and the frozen
regions farther north, that the cold
continued all the way 10 Eastern
Alaska, and on 10 Bchring strait, with
even greater degree Of intensity. In
fact, the coolest region is probably the
wide cNpansc west, and especially
northwest, of Hudson Bay. in the

Something That Nobody Knows.

Tho stars are spinning their threads,

And the suns are weaving them up
For tho time when the sloepors shall rise.

Aud the gems are turning to eyes;
Aud the trees are gathering souls
For the time when the slcepcrs shall rise.
Tho weepors are learning to smile,
And laughter to CLEAN the sshs;
Burn and bury the caro- and guile,
For the day when the sleopcrs shall rise.

'
A Philadelphia company is hav.
ing constructed a large street
car, with a patent spring motor
attached. This car will be pat
upon one Of the prominent city
passenger railways of Philadel-
phia within a month.
When all the springs are
wound and the car is in . con-
ditioa to start, tho calculation is
that there is stored . power ca
pablo of propelling loaded car
eight miles with ease, and that
this power can be increased or
entirely shut off, as may be dc
sired. The machinery by which
motor il controlled and applied
to the propelling Of the car is
very simple, and eaisly manip-
ulated by the operator, who
is upon tie platform above.
The power is in eight springs
shafts attached to the axle,
each shaft having ten ciol
sprins wound round it, and each
spring il three inches wide
three thirty-secends of an inch
thick, and sixty feet long. The
experimental car will cost %,

notwithstanding its 7,OOO,00(

Of tho old ones, is the mair
