rushing into his mothers room, "a

Where the Rule Failed.

A gentleman was explaining TO his
little boy the other day how it was that
the present century was called the
nineteenth instead of the eighteenth
century. "Now," said he, "your ninth
birthday occurred last month, so that
you are in your tenth year now. Don't
you see?'
"Well, then" said the boy, ANXIOUS
to try it for himself, there's Aunt
Sally. She had her twenty-ninth birth
day last winter, and now she must be
in her thir-"
mo, interrupted the father, shak-
ing his head, mo, the rule doesn't
work there. When Aunt Sally passed
her twenty-ninth birthday she was ex-
atty twenty-five years old. You may
not see just now how this can be, but
you will understand it later in life.
Now you can go ont and play bal" and
the lesson in mathematics was sus-
pended indefnitely.-Chaf.

The Last Words of Great Men.

The physicians narrative of Mr.
O'Conor's death is of singular inter
est to scientific spectators concerning
the myst%g of future existence. Miss
Frances Power Cobbe, in one of the
English reviews few years ago, sug-
geSted that, if 1.-THE of the attention
bestowed upon the vagaries of spiritu-
alism were to be devoted to careful
systematic observation of symptoms
attending death, it might be possible
to draw some scientific deduction On
that subject from the mass of well at.
tested facts which would be collected.
Mr.. O'Conor's physician. Dr. Roth,
testifies TO fact of the nature of those
which Miss Cobbe evidently had in
mind. He says that, after a long
period, during which Mr.. OConor
''made no answer to questioning" he
opened his eyes. and, with extended
arms, as though seeing something or
some one plainly said, My Godp and
fell back and died without struggle
in few moments"
Some famous mems last words are
too plain to be mistaken; for example,
those of President Garfield, ''Oh, that
paint" or those of Alexander II. Ste
phens, Doctor, you hurt me-" But
there are many who have gone into
history perverted by omission of a
part of the phrase or by suppression OF
the circumstances. Daniel Webster's
and Emmanuel Rants are cases in
point. 1t is well known that Mr.
Webster's II still live" was accompan-
led with request to the physician for
stimulant which had been promised
to him that he might retain conscious.

A Fossil Pnrn-oI.

A most remarkable discovery was
made in Elkton, Neb., short time ago.
Some workmen employed in a sawmlll
found the handle of parasol lmDedded
in the heart of an OAK tree. Ii is esti-
mated that the tree in question was
fully four hundred years old, ana from
the position of the parasol handle IL
was evident that nearly the same length
Of time had passed since the OAK tree
began to grow around and to swallow
UP, so to speak, the parasol. Storlesof
toads imbadded in rocks and trees are
by no means rare. They, however, are
not as wonderful as the parasol story.
The toad has the power of motion, and
we may assume, if we are sufficiently
reckless, that he sometimes slowly
bores his way into the heart of tree
and then cunningly closes up the hole
after him. No such conduct can be
predicted of a parasol. There can be
no doubt that the Elkton fossil paraols
was accidentally left in the fork OF
an oak tree, and that its disappearance
from human view was caused by the
gradual growth of the tree. The most
wonderful feature of the story is, how
ever, the proof which it affords that
paraSols existed on this continent west
of the Mississippi river before the
landing of Columbus. This is, indeed,
the most surprising piece of knowledge
which paleontology-if a parasol can
indeed claim a place in paleOntOlOgy-
has yet revealed to us. The existence
of parasols implies the contemporary
existence of civilized girls. 1t need
not be argued that a parasol handle
implies a parasOl. Although the oak
tree has completely assimilated the
frame and the silk of the Elkton para
sol, leaving only the handle for our
editication, there is not the slightest
doubt that the frame and the silk
formerly existed. In it, original and
complete state this parasol must
have been carried by fashion
able young lady of highly
civiliZel race, and it is extremely
probable that she lost it in an oak
grove during Sunday-school picnic.
1t is understood that the parasol han
die is to be given to General eli Cesnola
VIII VIII promptly IcSCOic, llOt only
the frame and the cover, but the
original young woman who owned the
parasol. OF course, ne will not restore
her in flesh and blood, Tor even his
skill does not extend so far, but he
will make an original statue of her SO
closely joined to the parasol handle
that no doubt will exist but that the
two were found to2 ether in the heart
of the oak tree. 1t is pity that this
story comes from the other bankof the
Mississippi. Sad as it may seem, trans
Mississippi journalists do not always
tell the truth. and there is, a bare
possibility that the entire parasol-
handle story is the invention of some
wicked editor who does not believe in
a future state-NeC York Times.

A Monkey and Dog Time.

Moore had big fighting stump-tail
dog by the name of Rather and one
day little Italian came along with an
organ and monkey, and as the crowd
gathered around, he asked the man if
his monkey could fight. "Oh, yes he
fight" said the Italian. "Wil he
fight dog?" said Moore. oh, yes,
he fight dog-he whip dog quick, " SAID
the Italian. Moore pulled out five
dollar bill, and said, "Ill bet you this
that I've got dog he can't whip"
The little fellow covered it with an
other five, and the money was handed
over to a stakeholder. and they went
through to the back yard, followed by
half the folks in the little town There
lay the dog on the grass asleep, and at
the word the Italian tossed the monkey
upon him. In less than a jitfey the
/ little brute had his teeth and his claws
| fastened like wise in the stump of
that dogs tail and was screeching like
hyena. The dog gave but one as
tonished look behind as he bounced TO
his feet and made tracks for another
country. The monkey held on until
Rather sprang over ten-rail fence at
the back of the garden, when he sud
denly quit his hold and sat on the top
rail and watched the dogs flight with
chatter of perfect satisfaction and
danced along the rail with delight The
crowd was convulsed. They laughed
and roared and hollered tumultuously,
all but old man Moore, whose
voice could be heard above
all others as he stood upon the fence
and shouted: Here, Rather; here
hefel Here, Rather. here. Here,
Rather, herer' But Rather wouldn't
hear. Rather ratified on and on
across field after field, until he got tc

The latest theory is that the inn
ported foreign human hair is finer than
the hair of native Americans, partly
because it is cut from the heads,0f the
peasantry of Europe, who wear caps
constantly, which keep the hair smooth
and clean. The American Indians
have hair as.coarse as straws, and there
is a much greater infusion of Indian
blood in the old American families
than we, with cur imperfect knowl-
edge of and interest in genealogy,
usually imagine, says an alleged expt ut.
People with any faint of Indian Blood
are apt to have long, heavy heads of
hair, and they, like Indians, keeps their
hair always. Who ever heard of a
bald-headed Indian brave?
