How a Delaware Bow Had Fun.

The Rev. Mr.. Redman, pastor in
charge of the Nj. E. Church of this place,
some days ago called at house in
town and offered to pray with the fam
lily. Through a door in an adjoining
room the preacher observed stout boy
belonging to the family with an old
chicken hen under his arm. On being
urged by the head of the family to re-
lease the hen and join in the devotions
the undevout lad showed no signs OF
obedience, but stood stock still with the
old hen under his youthful arm while
the family, lead by the pastor, knelt in
prayer. When the devout members of
the family responded hearty amen
the attentive boy would pinch the old
hen, whereupon the tortured fowl would
utter Il mournful cry, to the great amuse-
ment of the boy. 1t is hardly necessary
to say that the prayer was "a short one
and unmixed with the faith that re-
moves mountains.-.SusScr (DeL) Jour-

Inherited Strength.

Prof. r. A. Proctor found at Reno,
Nevada, a man who claims to be the
strongest man in the world. His name
is Angela Cardella. He is an Italian
aged thirty-eight, and stands five feet
ten inches in height, weighing 1873 pounds.
His strength was born with him, for he
has had no athletic training. He differs
from others chiefly in osseous structure.
Although not of unusual size his spinal
column is double the ordinary width and
his bones and joints are made on SINH
lar large and generous scale. He can lift
"a man 200 pounds with the middle 'tinge.
Of his right hand. The man stood with
one foot on the floor, his arms out
stretched and his hands grasped by two
persons to balance his body. Cardella
then stopped down and placed the third
finger of his right hand under the man s
foot, and, with scarcely any perceptible
effort, raised him to the height of foul
feet and deposited him on table near al
hand. Once two powerful lrishmen
waylaid Cardella with intent to thrash
him, but he seized one in each hand and
hammered them together till the life
was nearly hammered out. of them. he
is of quiet and peaceful disposition
and his strength is inherited, for he
states that his father was more power
full than himself.

The Manufacture of Veneering.

The demand for fine woods" saio
the New York furniture man, lis in
creasing every year. The finest and
costliest is French walnut, which, by
the way, is not French at all, but is
product of Oriental countries. 1t grows
in Persia, Circassia and Asia Minor.
You have seen it in veneering upon
costly furniture, but you probably have
no notion how expensive it is, nor how
careful we are to prevent waste in its
use. Come into our work-rooms and

Every time this beam turns around

off the sheets of wood Is rigidly immov-

American humor."

A correspondent writes e long ex-
egesis to this periodical, analyzing
american Humor," and asks the pub
Usher (as If he knew ANYTHING about it)
to endorse his views. Stuff! There Is
no such thing as distinctively "Ameri-
can Humor" The people of the United
States are an over-worked, over-burden-
ed community, worn out with the cares
of business and ready to laugh at any
thing that does not entail business
loss to themselves or affect their i'm
mediate relations. Americans are hys-
terical by the nature of their habits, and
they will laugh at mans misfortunes,
or weep over his grief indiscriminately.
To make them cry, one has only to re-
late pathetic story of great fortitude,
under pressure of great suffering, while
to induce laugh, the author only needs
the audacity to make dignity ridiculous.
1t is the earnest way in which foolish
men do absurd things that makes wise
men smile. and it is by surrounding
wise men with comical inconvenience
that the unthinking man is tickled into
q roar.
There is great deal said about
"Amcrican Humor," as though one
class of people could comprise, either in
ability to write or capacity to enjoy, a
certain emotion. And there is great
deal said about american Humorists, "
a term as offensive to the sensitive ear
as that of professional Beauty. ~
