worked industriously at his post for ten
years. His honest ways attracted at
tention, he was promoted, and now,
gentlemen, he is one of the most trust

true, very true,'' responded the slim
passenger: II happened to know a
shrewd fellow on this line several years
ago who let no chance slip to put every
car fare he could into his own pocket.
He kept up his stealing for two years
and then stopped. Poor fellow

Of the so-called malaria is nothing but
laziness. A fellow practitioner once
told me of an old lady he knew in New
buryport, Mass. She had kept her bed
for three years, and, in spite of her
physicians assurances, she believed
herself hopelessly paralyzed. One
night her grandson got up ghost to
scare her, and the old lady run half
mile before they could catch her.
"lhe longer an hallucination is in

develops into monomania or delusional
insanity. DR.. S. Weir Mitchell per-
forms many of his most remarkable
cures of so-called nervous diseases
simply by his wonderful success in per-
suading patients that nothing on earth
ails them. Few physicians have the
ability to do this, and still fewer have
the discretion to adopt course Of
treatment adapted to the mental pecu-
liarities of each particular case. Some
times persuasion is necessary, but
frequently, little tonic combined with
good scolding, produces the desired
result.

That Keely Motor.

Inventor Keely was seen the other
day with reference to published inter-
view with Lieutenant E. l.. Zainski, of
the United States army, stationed at
Governors Island, in which the Lieu
iments at Sandy Hook with the etheric
vapor gun, ridicules the ''vaporic
force" theory, and processes to explain
that all Keely's ideas and methods are
based on legerdemain. Mr.. Kelly said,
referring to Lieut.. Zalinski:
Between you and me, this man is
jealous of me. He knows that am on
the way to great heights. He feels, as
well he may, that soar far above him.
The difference between us is even that
of the lion and the lamb. Now as re-
CARDS his opinion of me and my theory,
he is altogether wrong. He conflicts
my theory with that of compressed air.
There is where he is totally wrong.
There is where he does me gross in
justice. do not believe in the theory
| of compressed air. It's nonsense. "a
linski has faith in compressed air; I
have none. And, by the way, his ideas
never appear so small to me as when
think of that tube of his" (Here Mr..
Keely smiled an exultant SMILEY ia
linski, he continued, ''has sort of
tube into which he places rocket. At
the touch-hole he places torpedo.
Then compressed air engine of the
insignificant power of 25O pounds to
the square inch, discharges the torpedo
and elevates the rocket. Ridiculous,
tritiing, silly, boyish, preposterous.
And yet the believer in such an idea
seeks to criticise my invention! It's
sheer nonsense.

A Devoted Mother.

When Maj. Converse was laying out
the line of the Galveston, Harrisburg
and San Antonio railroad he spent sew
eral days in obtaining the right of way
through the little town of Kingsbury.
There was considerable opposition on
the part of some of the citizens to
granting the right at way unless they
received extraordinary remuneration.
Among those who regarded the rail-
road as nuisance was hard faced
widow of about 80 years of age, who
owned small farm. She said that if
she was not compelled to have 800
right off she would fight the company
until certain warm place froze over.
''That ERE road will run over some
of my cows, but I've got to have mon
ey," she said.
1T will not be as bad as you I'M
agine," replied Maj. Converse, sooth-
ingly. -

Major Converse handed over the

badly?" asked Major Converse, as he
folded up the document and put it in
his pocket.

"Flinging the Stockings"

An old time wedding freak was the
custom of "f1inging the stockings" at
which the bridesmaids took a promi-
nent lead, a ceremony to which no
small Importance was attached. 1t has
been made the subject of frequent al
lusions by our old writers, and one
rhyme, describing wedding, tells us:
s'But still the stockings are to throw;
Some throw too high, and some too low,
There's none could hit the mark"
Mission further informs us that if the
bridegroom stockings thrown by one
of the bridesmaids fell upon his head,
it was regarded as an omen that she
herself would soon be married.; and a
similar prognostic was taken from the
falling Of the BRIDES stockings thrown
by one of the groomsmen.-Cass
Magazine.

POe's Legendary Years.

His story, stripped of it's fabulous in
cidents, has turned out to the common
place one of runaway boy, who per-
sistently rejected and at last forfeited
tho honest kindness of his friends.
There is nowhere in it a generous, no.
BILE, or picturesque incident. If one de-
sires to build up Transforming legend
and to perpetuate the romance of a by
gone literary fashion, he can do so only
by suppressing the facts and elaborat-
ing the myth in the direction of taw-
dry and foolish sentimentality.
Whether or not, as Poe said, the truth
is everything in biography, justice
has supreme right there as elsewhere;
l do not mean the justice that is ex-
pressed in verdicts, but that ideal JUS
tice, which, however obscured, or lost,
or overborne, it may be, by the intru-
sion of extraneous influences, is never
theless discernible in human affairs,
and brings about certain consistency
in life and character. Shelley's youth
was full of error, and at his death his
name was held in dishonor; but, the
nobility of his nature always remaining
undefiled, ruin could not touch him nor
shame live beside his grave. If Poe,
on the other hand, was the victim, he
was also the servant, as he was the
poet, of the evil gods; and the same
consistency, the same ideal justice,
working itself out to different end, is
to be seen in his life as in Shelley's. It
is not the career of youth between
the ages of eighteen and twenty-five
that has been so infinitely examined in
this paper; it is rather the sowing time
of man of genius, whose harvest
proved 80 black growth that it is
deemed hardly natural. But so far
from learning to credit any part of the
legend that strives to turn Poe into the
object of an exceptional fatality, one
rises from the exhaustive study of his
days from birth to death, with only the
more profound conviction that nothing
but mans own acts can plunge him
into the worst of life. December Atla,a.
