They had been enemies for three long
years They passed each other on the
street with stern faces, their wives made
fun of each others dresses, and the child
rem climbed up on the back fence and
called each other shoddy aristocrats. Oh
no, there was no dove of peace around
there, and lots of people predicted that
case of assassination would grow out of it.
Last evening whole neighborhood was
astonished beyond measure. These two
families who had thirsted for each others
scalps were seen in sweet convention on
the lawn. The men exchanged cigars, the
women admired each others latest pur-
chase, and the blessed little children hug
ged each other all over the grass. How
did the change come about? Well, neither
man ever owned horse in his life, and
neither knew a case of SPAWN from

decided, however, to buy horse. He was
looking one over at his hitching post when
Smith came along. LIZ moment of for
getfulness Jones remarked; "Say, Smith,
you know all about horse How old is
this animal?" In the jerk of comets
tail rancor and bitterness were forgotten.
The fattery hit Smith plumb-centre and
ripped all the buttons off his pent up soul.
He obeyed the request, pointed out all the
rlngbones, stiff knees and splints, and
advised Jones not to buy. They went off
arm arm, and the dove of peace now

Wonderful Inrention.

The "Antiphonen is said by its inventor
"a Prussian officer-to be destined to
prove a real blessing to literary and scien-
tific men-to all, in short, whose calling
or occupations require quiet, and who are
forced to live in noisy cities where quiet
cannot be secured The name of the new
invention indicates its nature. 1t is a
little instrument, in metal, fitting into the
orifce of the ear, which may be used in
sleep or study, and permits the employer
of it to slumber or to concentrate his
thoughts undisturbed by sounds from
Prussian officer has told the reporter of a
French paper, destroy all sense of hear
ing, for ordinary conversation can be car
ried on by two persons, each with an anti
phone adjusted to his ears; but it dead
ems all the noise of the streets, renders
sawdust OF straw superfuous, and effectu-
ally does away with the nuisance occa-
stoned by brass bands or barrel organs.
The inventor, requiring great quiet for
himself, and suffering from weak nerves,
set to work to discover some method by
which the noise of the street traffic and
sound generally could be deadened. The
result was the "antiphone," the practical
utility of which he has thoroughly tested,
as well as others have tested it. It is not,
however, universal instrument. 1t has
to suit every individual using it-just as
spectacles do, the sense Of hearing vary
ing considerably; indeed, very often the
antiphone for the same person will have
to be of two sizes, the dimensions of the
two ears rarely corresponding. If the
antiphone has really all the advantages
claimed for it by its inventor, more will
probably be heard about it.-0UerlaRd Mail.

A simple cure of sleeplessness has been
advised by Partisan physician for an
American travelling through Europe who
suffered from wakeful nights. The
remedy was cessation Of mental exertion
in the evening and the formation of a
habit of retiring at the same time each
night. No letter-writng, no reading of
exciting books was allowed, and the
mind was placed in as passive mood as
possible. The American, who had been a
victim of sleeplessness for years. returned
home cured. The man who must work at
nights, however, viii still have to 60 on
getting his sleep as best he can.

A third time the water was agitated in
the same spot, the deep hiss again resound-
ed, and with his head turned away from
us in the direction of the land, where,
perhaps, he was about to seek his prey,
Houilie slowly appraised its length from
under water There was something 'un-
canny" in the situation, and for mo-
ment we felt incapable of acting-until at
a word from Antonio we aimed and fired.
There was a wild spring in the air, a
series of enraged misses, convulsive strug
giles in the water dashed into foam for
some distance round, and the Houille rea-
red with menacing aspect as if to dart at
our boat and annihilate usl But we were
ready for him. Our second volley went
off like a single shot, and the monster
dropped loosely on the water. His dying
quivers and the force of the current
brought him against the bank, where he
became entangled in the submerged roots
of some over hanging tree. We approach
ed him cautiously, and after firing a
quietus shot in his brain, set to work to
haul him to land. He was a fine speci-
men, twenty-six feet long and twenty
four inches round the thickest part. OF
our shots two had penetrated his brain,
and three the vertebral column; the latter
probably contributing most of all to dis
able him. His color was a dark brown,
resembling that of the bark of an aged
tree. His eyes, about the size of $50
piece, but almond shaped, were fixed in a
stony and hateful glare. Pittsb1vg Dispatch.

The census taken in Tennessee shows
that there are 100000 worthless dogs in
the State, which consume food enough. if
fed to hogs, to make 100000 pounds of
bacon, or enough to give meat to an army
OF 100000 able-bodied men whole year.
To carry the calculation still further, the
bacon, at TO cents per pound, would be
worth S3,0O0,0OO. This, if paid in silver,
would load down ninety-four two-horse
