QYerladen Emit Trees

1t is rule in fruit culture, that q
tree should not carry any greater
weight of fruit than its branches can
sustain. Still, with some rapidly
swelling fruits, peach and plums es-
pecially, however thoroughly thinning
may have been done, it is often found,
as the fruit ripens, that the weight is
too great, and the branches, unless they
are supported, will break down with
the load of fruit. The usual method of
supporting overladen fruit trees is to
place long stakes, with fork at the
top, beneath them. A much better and
more simple method of effecting the
purpose, is suggested by DR.. S. Mease,
of Lebanon, Pa. Instead of using sew
eral stakes, one to each principal
branch, he places a single strong pole
against the trunk of the tree. The
lower end of the pole, if desired, may
be sunk few inches in the soil, for adj
ditional support, but usually it will be
sufficient TO secure it to the trunk by
means of straw bands, or other ties that
will not bruise the bark. The pole be-
ing secured, the dropping branches are
relieved by means of ties made fast to
it. DR.. NJ. states that this method of
tying up the branches of overloaded
trees is especially useful in storms, the
support being central, and more natur-
al than where several props are used

In a New York Saloon.

There is nothing cheap here, and few
kings have taken their teddy in better
quarters. You walk up brown stone
steps under blazing lights into room
as bright and beautiful as any in New
York. If at night the blaze of light
dazzles you, and you might think you
had stumbled into a palace. A knight
in plated armor stands before you,
bronzes and statues look at you from
different parts of the room. The most
elegant Of paintings hang surrounded
by rich velvet upon the walls, and great
mirrors of heavy plate glass reflect the
many-colored lights Of the cut-glass
chandeliers. Everything is elegant
here. There is no shoddy and no We
neering. The room is paneled with
carved mahogany, aud the tables scat
tered here and there over the mosaic
floor are of the same polished wood. If
you take chair, it is of the bent wood
Of Austria, and if you call for drink
you will be served in cut-glass COB
let, and your change will be handed
you by gentlemanly waiter on silver
platter. A silver cuspidore, shining as
bright as Vanderbilt's spoons, stands
beside you, and if you ask for pretzel
to eat with your beer, it will be brought
you on a piece of porcelain decorated
as beautifully as that on the Presidents
table. Cleveland Leader.

Superstition Regarding Mole Spots.

A mole spot on the armpit really
promises wealth and honor. On the
ankle it bespeaks modesty in men, but
courage in women. When a mole spot
is found on the right breast it is sure
sign of honesty; if on the left it fore
BODIES poverty; on the chin it promises
wealth, on the right ear respect, on the
left ear dishonor. If it is seen in the
center of the forehead it bespeaks
treachery, sullenness and untidiness.
If it is on the right temple it foreshad-
ows that you will enjoy the friendship
of the great; on the left temple it fore
BODIES distress; on the right foot it be-
speaks wisdom, on the left rashness.
When it is on the right side of the heart
it denotes virtue; when on the left side
wickedness. When it is on the knee Of
man it denotes that he will have
rich wife. When it is on the left knee
of woman she may expect large
family. A mole on the lip is sign Of
gluttony and talkativeness; on the neck
it promises wealth. A mole on tho
nose indicates that man will be q
great traveller; on the thigh it forobodes
poverty and sorrow and on the wrist
ingenuity.

She Took the Div One.

''Single ladies' said the Captain of
an ocean steamer, soften cross the wa
ter under the special care of the captain
of the ship. A very fascinating young
lady was placed under my care, and
three young gentlemen fell desperately
in love with her. They were all equally
agreeable, and the young lady was puz-
z1ed which to encourage. She asked
my advice. Come on deck, said l the
first day when it :, perfectly calm-the
gentlemen will, of course, all be near
you. l will have boat quietly lowered
down; then doyou jump overheard and
see which of the gentlemen will be the
first to jump after YOU A calm day
soon came, the Captains suggestion
was followed, and two of the lovers
jumped after the lady the same instant.
Between these two the lady could not
decide. .'Take the man that, didn't
jump" said the Captain, she's the most
sensible fellow, and will make the best
husband" And she did.

Sunday School Picnic.

"A day in the woods" A realistic
sketch in black and white. It is glad
picnic party. The Sunday school has
gone out into the leafy forest. The dark
object in the heavens 800 miles wide
and 1000 miles long is cloud 1t got
to the woods rs soon as the picnic, and
is there yet. Under the great oak you
can see the dinner. The large water
proof mound in the middle of the table
sullenly laughing at the storm is fruit
cake. The teacher of the infant class
made it herself for the little ones. But
the storm saved them. See, the light
ming struck the cake. 1t will never
strike anything else. There stands the
cake without dent, and under the ia
BILE, shattered and blighted, lies the
thunderbolt. Under the cedar tree is a
dying dog. He got in the way and the
superintendent felled him to the earth
with one blow of biscuit. The tall
figure wrapped in the ghostly drapery
of water-soaked linen buster, leading
the way to the cars, is the teacher of
the young ladies' bible class. His in
fuence with that class is gone forever.
The young ladies will never be able to
look at him again without thinking how
he looked on this occasion. Up in the
hickory tree you see grief-stricken
face peering down. 1t is the superin-
tendent. He climbed up there to fix the
swing, and before they could throw him
the rope the storm came up and the
picnic adjourned sine die and sine mora.
And he is waiting for the last straggler
to disappear before he comes down. He
has officiated at Sunday school picnics
often enough to know better than slide
down a shell-bark hickory before an
audience. The man with the umbrella
under his arm is the treasurer. He is
getting drenched, but he does not raise
the umbrella. He knows there is name
painted on the inside of it, but for the
life of him he can't remember whose
name it is. He is watching his chance
to give the umbrella to a stranger. r.

A half Told Story.

Captain" says he, as he found the
old weather-beaten tar summing himself
on the ferry dock, "you have probably
heard about Shylock and the pound Of
fesh.'
''Well, yes"
"Can you remember the particu-
lars?''
':Most of 'em, l guess. Yes, I'll take
brandy with you.
He hadn't been asked to drink, but
after the two had wiped off their chins
the captain sat down, got an elevation
for his feet, and began:
''This old coon of Shylock lived
over in Europe somewhere, and it was
some time ago. I've heard that he
once kept a pawn-shop in Buffalo. but
never tried to get him down very fine.
Nice man on the average, they say,
might have been little cranky in want
ing good indorser on note and steep
interest on loans, but reckon he paid
his way at picnic as freely as the
next. Yes, wouldn't mind glass of
beer with you"
Nothing had been said about beer,
but it was called for, and tucked away
out of sight, and the captain continued:
'.This merchant Antonio was no great
shakes of q teller. He was in the retail
business, and he hadn't enterprise
enough to advertise in the papers.
Probably kept a one-horse grocery and
notion store, and put in most of his
time on the cracker barrel. Some folks
try to make out that he was the biggest
rooster on the fence, but facts won t
bear them out. Thank you. So am I.
I'll take lemonade
The other hesitated, but finally order
ed it, and again the story went on:
''Ihis Antonio had borrowed various
small sums of money of Old Shy, and
it had been tight squeak to make him
pay up. There wasn't man in town
who would give ten cents on the dollar
for his notes, and his opinion on the
question of finance wasn't worth shucks
He wanted to enlarge his grocery, or
start a sheep-ranche, or take hand in
some such enterprise calling for cash,
and he goes to Shylock to raise the
greenbacks. Thank you"
''For what?"
''For the mint julep. I'll have mine
favored with strawberry"
''See here, Captain, can't afford
this. want to be courteous and lib
eral, but this is rather strong.''
young man." said the Captain, as
he drew himself up with great dignity,
''the story of Shylock, as tell it, con-
tains eight drinks and ends with 15-
cent cigar! Do you want the rest of
it?'
''Great Scott! No!'
''Then be a little more careful in the
future how you absorb my. valuable
time. My stories vary from three drinks
and a cigar to eight drinks and bottle
of ale to take home. Don't come to me
and try to get an eight-drink story for
three drinks, for you will get left every

Women as Indian Firhtsrs.

Dr. Edward Eggleston's important
historical paper in the September Gen.
tury, on ''Indian War in the Colonies
says of the heroism of the wives of the
pioneers: ''The women of those times
developed readiness and courage as
remarkable rs that of the men. The
Swedish women near the site of Phila-
delphia, while boiling soap. were warned
that the Indians were coming. They
took refuge, soap and all, in tho forti-
fed church, blew the conch-shell horns
to alarm the men, and when the Indians
tried to undermine the building ladled
the scalding soap upon them, and so
saved themselves from destruction un-
til their husbands arrived. The re-
nowned Hannah Bradley, of Haverhill,
in Massachusetts,, who had more than
her share of captivities and adventures,

WHOLE NUMBER 4I8
KINGS and Crowns

Can any one of us, who has, by rea-
son OF birth and residence in this Re-
public, been debarred from associating
with emperors and kings, think of those
rulers as human beings whose liyers get
out OF order as do the livers of ordinary
mortals, and who have the same trouble
with dandruf in their hair that we
have? With the exception of Colonel
not.'
We cannot imagine king in linen
custer, neither can we think of the heir
apparent to a throne with his suspen-
ders tied together by a string, and 3
sample of his hair sticking out through
hole in his hat. When we think of
kings we Immediately associate them
with crowns and royal scepters. We
picture to ourselves magnificent,
stern, no-admittance-except-on-bu business
specimen of humanity, with a crown
on his august head, sitting bolt upright
in gorgeous gold and pearl inlaid dem
lists chair, jewelled scepter in his
hand and a row of noble dukes bowed
to the ground before him.
Have we not seen such royalty on the
stage, and would it not be impossible
to imagine man with glittering dia-
dem on his head, and diamond-hilted
scepter under his arm trying to put an
old set of harness on sore-backed
mule? We have tried to conjure up
such a tableau, but it won't conjure.
The kings of the Eastern Hemisphere
do not 60 to the theater or to the circus
with scepters in their hands or crowns
on their heads. If king at q circus
put his crown under the seat, some ono
might spit in it or put his foot on it,
and if he should wear it on his head,
the people in the seats behind might
shout. 'Shoot the CROWN and that
would make the king angry, and he
would go out and demand his money
back at the door.
Editors do not wear crowns, although
the temptation is great, for crowns are
really cheaper than hats. The crown
that the Car of Russia wears has been
in use over 600 years; it has never had
to be repaired, and is yet good for
many years. service. The number of
hats that a man has to buy in 600 years
would cost more than two diamond-en-

The Modest Saver of 1853 Lives


A modest hero has been discovered
at Philadelphia in a stevedore, who

in humble frame tenement near the

ing work has been done. ''They are
always tumbling in about here" he re-
marked to q reporter; land it's my ma

Shannon seemed surprised that he

any of them, and sometimes didn't

been quietly saving lives for twenty
years Che is now but thirty, should
have lost his own little boy by drowning
while hundred men and boys were
looking on. Now that Shannon's hero
