A Mournful Prophecy OF Woes.

Professor Grimmer, in a pamphlet
published in 1879, predicted seven
years of disaster and famine, beginning
with 1880 and ending with 1887, during
which the world will be hell of strife
and carnage. He said:
From 1880 to 1887 will be one uni
versal carnival of death. Asia will be
depopulated, Europe nearly SO. Ameri-
ca will lose 100000 of her people.
Beside plague, we are to have storms
and tidal waves, mountains are to toss
their heads through the choicest val
leys, navigators will be lost by the
thousands owing to the capricious
defexures of the magnetic needle, and
islands will appear and disappear in the
ocean. All the beasts, birds and fishes
will be diseased, famine and civil strife
will destroy most of the human beings
left alive by plague, and finally .'twO
years Of iire"--lSS5 to lSS7-wiil rage
with fury in every part of the globe.
In 1887 the "Slar of Bethlehem" will
''reappear in Cassiopia's Chair" the
immediate results being universal war
and portentous floods and shipwrecks.
North America is to be again involved
In civil war unless Napoleon"
arises to quell it, but during these terri
BILE days the Pacific States will be u
veritable paradise of peace, compared
to the no 'ish strife that will be wagcd
throughout the world. The people
that may manage to survive till 1887
will have reason to be thankful.

True Even Unto Death.

That was touching story told by
Mr.. Gladstone when announcing the
death of the Princess Alice in parlia-
ment. She had been cautioned by the
physician not to inhale the breath of
her little boy, who was ill with diph-
liberia. The little fellow was tossing
in his bed in the delrium of fever.
The princess stood by the side of her
child and laid her hand on his brow
and began to caress him. The touch
cooled the fevered brain and brought
the wandering soul back from its wild
delirium to nestle for moment in the
lap of mothers love. Then throwing
his arms around her neck he whisp-
cred, "Mamma, kiss me-" The instinct
of mothers love was stronger than
science, and she pressed her lips to
those of her child. And yet there is
not a woman in all the world but
would say she would not have had q
mothers heart if she had not kissed her
BARN. And so it will be to the end of
time. The mother will kiss her child,
the wife her husband and the lover his
sweetheart, though death in thousand
forms lay concealed beneath the ver-
million coloring of the pouting lips
st. Paul Globe.

Chickens and pills.

DR.. Jones, who practices In q suburb
Of this city has an elaborate machine
for making pills. The Doctors prao-
tice Is quite extensive, and when he
puts the machine in operation the re-
suit Is enough to scare nervous pa
tient into convalescence or fits. Not
long ago DIR. Jones made several quarts
Of pills and waited for bright day to dry
them. As soon as he had good look at
the sun he spread the pills carefully on
the roof of convenient outbuilding,
and drove off to see his patients. About
half an hour after the Doctors buggy
had disappeared Mrs. Jones heard an
unusually vociferous squawk from the
boss rooster of the backyard, but she
had not curiosity enough to investi-
gate the cause, being confident that no
colored brother would invade the
chicken reservation on such bright
day. II she had looked she would
have seen the rooster perched on the
roof Of the outbuilding eating pills as
though he was laying up for seven lean
years of famine.
Attracted by the ROSTERS summons
to the banquet, and his evident enjoy
ment thereof, one or two hens flew up
to the top of the shed and proceeded to
devour the pills. They cackled and
clucked little after satisfying their
appetites, and more hens came. Then
more hens cackled. Then there were
still more hens and less pills. The in
creased volume of the cackling in
dulged In by the hen convention finally
attracted Mrs. Jones' attention again,
and she went forth to learn the cause.
She didn't learn it just then, for the
entire cause was concealed within the
hens. Not pill was to be seen. Two
or three hens lay on the ground writh-
ing from the effects of blue mass. The
boss rooster sat grimly in a fence cor
ner laboring under q dose of podo-
phyllin. Two or three gay young pull
let's had been so highly benefited that
they were fighting out the disputed
title to pill that one of them had
swallowed. Other fowls staggered
about in dazed sort of fashion, won
dering what was the matter with them,
Two hundred and thirty-seven pills
were found in the craw of one of the
chickens which was killed for dinner
that day. Nobody could explain how
they got there till the doctor came
home. He examined the shed roof and
the pills taken from the slain chicken $
craw and said one or two little words.
The family dined that day on eggs
bought at the grocery store. Erie
