A French EquiPage.
Nav York Post I

a new style of equipage is to be in
troduced at Newport and Lenox this
year, called by the French char-a-banc.
1t is intended to accommodate a large
party, and is better adapted for country
drives than for regular avenue parade.
It's Distinguishing novelty is the three
horses abreast which drag it, and Rus
sian innovation of large hoop fastened
over the back of the middle horse, to
which small bells are attached, has been
introduced with those that have been
imported to this country. The effect
viii be novel and picturesque, no doubt;
but in country neighborhood the tink-
ling bells might call up memories of the
rag and bottle man, or the summer ice
cream cart.

An Army Of Benedicts.

The Itrlian army has for some years
been known as legion of benedicts.
For many years it was royal rule that
no officer holding his majesty's COM
mission should marry unless he possessed
a certain amount of private income. It
ally is not rich nation, and the subal-
terms of its army are not wealthy. The
consequence is that married officers have
been the exception, not the rule in Italy.
The grievance-for in this light the rule
has been regarded by its yictims-was
recently brought under the notice of his
majesty, and the king has now relaxed
the regulation, fixing the marriage in
come of his officials at point which will
enable gallant gentlemen to enter the
bonds of matrimony in the broad light
of day, as becomes the action of the
soldier, instead of marrying in secret
and repenting at leisure.

A Burial I'm Palestine.

IJaffa Cor. Kansas City JournaLI
The other day tomb was opened, and
/ had the surprise of discovering that
the Biblical method of interment still
prevailed. 1t was young man who had
died. His body was first washed and
then wrapped in new white linen, the
feet and hands being tied with the same
stuff, and napkin being wound around
his face, as in the case of Lazarus. Then
the bones of the young mans father
were taken out of the grave, and put
back into the new grave with the fresh
remains. AS this process is repeated
from generation to generation, of course
the dust of previous paternal ancestors
is mingled with the fresh consignments
of clay so that the dead may literally
be said to "sleep with their fathers"

man, as he saw car driver on Wood
ward avenue take q nickel from his
pocket and pass it into the fare box.

down with "Good morning, nanny" !" +

eyes"
aWhy?"
"Well, the story runs back for almost
two years" he said, as he picked up his
lines. II reckon you know Bill -?
sYes."
aWell, two years ago he was one of
the toughest men in Detroit. he drank.
swore, gambled, and had all the other
vices lying around loose. tell you,
he was terror when off duty and on a
spree. He was getting so bad on his
car, that another week would have
bounced him, but something hap
pened."
"What?"
sHe was coming up one evening, half
drunk and full of evil, and somewhere
about Davenport street he 1urched over
the dashboard. He caught and was
dragged, and the horse began to kick
and run. That old woman there was
the only passenger on the car, and
when she saw the accident she came
out, grabbed the flying lines with one
hand and the brake with the other,
and looking down upon Bill she called
out:
"Oh! Lordl help me to save himl
Hes wicked young man and not fit to
diel"
well, she stopped that car and held
to the horse until some one came along
and helped Bill out of his fix, and she
was all the time calling him poor boy
and my SON. and thanking God he was
not killed He had close call, though,
and it was solemn warning. From
that night he hasn't taken drink, and
no driver on this line has q cleaner mouth
or is taking better care of himself"
"And the old woman?"

daughter. Many's the dollar Bill has
sent after her since that night in the
way of clothes and provisions. and he'll
never forget her. The story came to the
rest of us after awhile, and we've sort
of adopted her as Our Old Nanny
We help her on and off, pay her nickel
out of our own pockets, and when the
car isn't too full we have a minutes
chat with her. She likes us all, and we
wouldn't trade her off for the whole line.
It's bit of romance among ourselves,
you see"
"Yes. Did she ever talk to you?"
@Did she? She sat right there on
that stool one day two months ago and
said:
My son, let drink a1onei Itrobs
the pocket, cheats the brain, and
leaves you friendlessl Don't swear !!
Oaths go with vicious soul! Keep
your temper. The man who can't con-
troll his temper is no better than q
Gagged wolff"
.'She said that with her blue eyes
reading my soul and her old voice
trembling with earnestness, and every
word went right to my heart and
lodged there. She's had something to
say to most of the boys, and ] reckon
each one is the better for it. Curious,
amt it, how We found our old nanny,
and maybe you'll believe with some of
us that Providence had hand In it.

The Boy with a watch.
Detroit Free Press

1t stands to reason that boy cannot have
a watch and retain that sweet boyishness
which is the delight of his parents, and the
terror of the neghborhood. How can he
tear through back alleys, aud over vacant
lots in "ni spy" with watch in his pocket, or
crawl under sidewalks and circus tents with
ease and ptopriety If timed down by an hour
handl How can he stand on his head, or
make wheelbarrow of himself, or do cart
wheels, or "wrassel" for the championship of
the crowda What excuse can he give for be-
ing late at school, and early at q fret No;
don't watch the innocent youth. Don't let
him begin in his early years to go on tick.

where nature Humps Her Back.


While on earth I never expect view
more glorious than on Gray's Peak,
Col No pen can describe it, and this
is merely the stub of 5-cent pencil. Ii
in some sphere of the future there is a
panorama more grand in its roughness,
more magnificent in its extent and less
adapted to general transportation, no
wonder that the inhabitants have wings.
How seldom we realize the massiveness
of nature when she really humps hez
back.

There is birch tree in York, Me-,

which have been able to lift some twelve
inches block of granite compated to
weigh twenty tons. The tree is still
growing, and the rock continues to be
raised and pushed sideways at the rate
of nearly an inch year.

A method of growing house-plants
without soil is claimed by Captain Hal
ford Thompson, similar plan having
been previously suggested by French
man named Dumesnil The plants are
reared i'll a prepared or 'fertilized' moss,
and are said to grow even more luxuri-
antly than in soil Specimen baskets of
plants cultivated in this way have been
exhibited in London.
