AyerSions Of Appetite.

DIR. Oswald calls attention, in the
Popular Science Monthly, to the fact
that an antipathy to special dish indi-
Gates the presence of constitutional re-
pugnance, which it is not wise to disre-
gard. He says
knew Belgian soldier on whom
common salt, in any combination, and
in any dose exceeding ten pennyweights,
acted rs drastic poison, and thousands
of Hindoos cannot taste animal food
without vomiting.
Similar effects have obliged individu.
ais to abstain from onions, sage, parsnips
and even from Irish potatoes. DIR.
Pereira mentions the case of an English
boy who had an incurabls aversion to
mutton:
"Hc could not eat mutton in any form.
The popularity was supposed to be
owing to caprice, but the mutton was re-
pestedly disguised and given to him un-
known but uniformly with the same
result Of producing violent vomiting and
diarrhea.
"And from the severity Of the effects,
which were IN fact those of o virulont
poison, there can be little doubt that, il
the use of mutton had been persisted In,
it would soon have destroyed the boys
life"
We know q lady whose missionary
work in Burmah has attracted the atten-
ton Of English-speaking people, who
could not eat rice. Once when she was
visiting in England, her hostess, think
ing the aversion mere whim, put .
ble-spoonful Of rice in the soup.
Though the soup WAS strained before
being served, and not . grain Of rice was
10 be seen in it, yet the moment the lady
tasted it she exclaimed, ooh, there's
rice in this soup" and was obliged to
leave tho table.

Ruskin's Eccentricities,

Mr.. Ruskin is curiosity. He is sell
dom to be seen anywhere. Even in his
own beloved lake district he takes his
walks in the gray of the morning or the
dusk or the evening. He seldom goes
into society. He loves the theater, and
goes when he feels he can indulge him
self with such recreation. Perhaps not
fifty of these well-known people have
ever seen MI. Ruskin before. He comes
into the room in the midst of half
dozen gentlemen, not in the usual seem
~ fashion of the English procession on
such occasions. I saw him when he en-
tered the room, but who was before him,
behind him or beside him I could
not now say, for they ali came together
and the distinguished scholar and critic
was like the master in the great picture
of Veronesi, "The marriage of Cana"
He was Sin the midst thereof" Ruskin
is just 65 years old, and he looks and
acts like q man Of IS. He is not more
than five feet five inches in hight. In
deed he is petit His complexion orig
sinally, T should judge of what remains
Of a complexion, was fair, though now
his face nearly up to his eyes is covered
with an iron gray beard; the abundant
hair is unconveDt ionally long, and
though he was personally neat and
TRIM" his hair seemed to have had no
recent speaking acquaintance with a
brush. The forehead is low and re-
treating; the eyes gray and sparkling

"a Fireman's Act Of Daring.

Portland Dispatch in the Boston Globe.
The fire last night destroyed q block
owned by A. l.. E. Clapp. In the
midst OF the fire some men went into an
upper room and removed a key of pow
der, carrying it through the flames and
preventing an explosion. THE credit
Of taking the powder out Of the burning
building does not belong to me-" said
Samuel Thurston, fireman, to-day.
THAT was the act Of Elisha c.. Peter
son" Samuel Thurston was within
three feet Of the powder at the time
and kept his place at the pipe" said a
fireman "When Peterson went by Sam
he said: Theresa key of powder there
Said Sam: Get it out my placeN here, ,
and there he stnid. = Peterson saved at
least twenty five men," said Chief En-
gineer Cloyes. "There were fully that
number on the ladders front and rea,
and of pipeman in the building. Sam.
uel Thurston was at the end of the pipe
close by the key. The room was full Of
fire, and it was dropping down from
overhead at the moment when Peterson
performed his heroic act. Had that
powder exploded it is simply impossible
to say how great the loss Of life might
have BEEN"
Mr.. Peterson is about As. He said ::
II knew where it was, and, Of course, I
had to get it out. And I can't see that
l deserve any credit for doing it. "
Others think differently upon that point
however. Peterson rushed up stairs
and took the powder from the flames
himself, and carried it in his arms,
through room full of fire, to the open
air

DIR. John Hall and his Wealthy
Parishiouer, SO

Rev. DR.. John Hall is pastor Of the
wealthiest congregation in America
the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian He is
Scotch, and, therefore, uncompromis"
ing in his principles, which are regard
ed as always of the best. He gets $15,-
900 year and parsonage worth SIS, 900
more from the church. He is paid
S., 900 to write for Bonner's story paper,
and he draws salary as president
of an educational institution. There
fore you can see that he is fixed
comfortably for life, so far as income is
concerned. But there is widow, Mrs.
r. L. Stuart, possessing $7,0O0.O0O.
She is very old, and her decaining days
are largely devoted to benevolence.
DR.. Hall is her pastor and her adviser
in benefaction. Her residence is, in
some respects. as fine as a palace. It
contains wonders in Gobelin tapestries,
elaborate frescoing and massively rich
furniture. The venerable lady is not
in the least frivolous, and yet one Of
her diversions is the beautifying of her,
home. She will spread SIC, 900 on the
walls of a room, and, before the paint
is fairly dry, cover it with
something different but equally
expensive. The drawing room has just
been decorated in white, gold and rose
pink, with frescoed ceiling dotted by
vivid little Spanish pictures. Right I'M
der this layer of fresh art lies the paint
ing that was done no more than year
ago Atthe TOD of the house is an octag-
onal room, something like an observa-
tory, from which the whole of Central
Park can be reviewed. This is Mrs.
Staurt's place Of laziness. What I set
out to tell, however, WAS that she has
provided in her will for the giving Of
this remarkable property to DR.. Hall

Agricultural 1ta.ns.

Mr.. Nimmo's recent conclusions are
especially cited as "a damper upon the
trichinosis shriekers" :5 !.
He inquired of the Health Depart
ments Of the large cities, and the reports
cover not less than five years in any
case, and some Of them run back to
1884, and in all the vast aggregate Of
deaths in all this time in all the sections
only about ten have died Of trichinosis.
If trlchina cannot do worse than this, it
deserves no more censure than hunks of

death. =gs s.,s 81. n s .5l&

She Waited Forty Years.

The handsomest girl in Sylvanio
county, Ga, became engaged nearly &C
years ago, to John Gross, the son Of d
wealthy planter. Shortly after the en-
gagement was announced Gross went
to New Orleans on business, forgot his
lady love, settled in Texas, and did not
return home until two years later.
Though the lady had not heard q word
from him in all that time, she was still
true They renewed the engagement,
then quarreled, and Gross went off
again. He renamed away until a few
days ago, when he returned to the old
homestead to celebrate his 60th birth
day. He found his faneee still waiting
and promptly married her. She had.
refused man. offers Of marriage during
his absence. Three men whom she
had refused became respectively q cons
