A LIGHTNING STORY.

Tho Remarkable Way in Which . French
Girl Lost Her Hair.
During a violent thunderstorm which
recently broke over a country town IN
France curious incident happened. A
young woman caught in the storm was
Fastening homewards, sheltering her
self as best she could beneath an um-
brella from the drenching rain. Sud-
denly she experienced a strange and
alarming sensation, the shock being
simultaneous with very vivid flash OF
lightning. She felt "quite upset.
greatly alarmed" but nevertheless
proceeded on her way, and it was only
an reaching her residence that she dis
covered what narrow escape she had
had. On removing her bonnet she
found that her hair had beeu literally
cr.t of, her head presenting, as the hair
fell, the same appearance as though it
had been shaved with razor. The ef-
fee* upon the girls mind of the dis
cotery was so great that she has been
con ined to her bed ever since the day
of the storm. 1t is not the loss of her
hair that affects her, but the recollec-

A Few Rules That should BE CAREFUL
Observed.


A Few Rules That should BE CAREFUL,
Observed.
Action has good deal to do with
ones inner thought, my young friends.
The mere practice of rules of etiquette
will carry with it an effect upon the
morals. Such rules as these should be
observed carefully by boys:
10 take off the hat whenever you
enter house or private Office.
To speak out distinctly but not
roughly when answering question.
To do the bidding of your parents,
teacher or employer cheerfully and
promptly.
To keep your face and hands clean,
and your clothing neat
To keep silent when others are talk
ing, and never to interrupt man or
woman who is speaking to another.
To resign your chair or seat to a
woman. wherever you may be.
Never to take chair when in q
strange house or Office, unless you are
requested to do so.
When YOU are addressed to be atten-
tive, and to look the person who ad-
dresses you in the face.
At the table to use knife and fork
quietly and decently, and to eat with
out making noise.
These rules will generally apply to
"our girls" too, and will assure you
that young people can not do such
things every day without rising ir
mental character. and becoming moro
and more worthy. chronological Jour

I'm try to find new place, she
said to herself. But every hay-mow,
every nook and corner of the barn,
seemed to have been used for hiding
places. Even the old dsleigh had served
its turn.

ute's thinking; there's the great ket-
tic! They won't guess that for ever 80
long" What Minnie meant was q
huge boiler, set in brick framework,
just outside the barn. There was a
fireplace under the boiler. Grandpa
used it to boil potatoes for the pigs.
Minnie managed to climb into the
boiler. 1t had a wooden cover. fas-
tened up against the barn. Minnie
was small for her years. As she
nestled down she was quite out of
sight, unless one looked over the rim
of the boiler.
"Whcop!" she shouted, and then
kept very still. Presently she heard
footsteps coming towards her. But
they were slow, and proved to be old
Peters, who was on his way to the
barn to feed the horses and cows. 1t
was almost dark. His eyes were not so
quick rs they had once been. As he
passed he shut down the cover of the
kettle.
Peter! Petere' called Minnie, again
and again, as she Knocked on the
cover. 1t was not fastened, but was
SO heavy she could not lift it, and Peter
was very deaf.
Soon there was great stir in the
house. The children rushed in, much
frightened, and still they could not find
Minnie. The whole family, from
grandpa down, joined in the search.
Grandma thought of all the things that
could happen and some that couldn't
At last grandpa came near enough
to the boiler to hear a noise inside. A
scratching and knocking, and-he
listencd-could that be Els darling's
voice? 1t seemed so weak and mufiied
and distressed. But it came from the
kettle. The cover was raised quicker
than ever before.
..Poor child! poor childr' said
grandpa, as he lifted her out in his
strong arms. He placed her on his
shoulder and gave her a ride to the
house.
"Well, well! I've found mice in the
kettle before, but l think this is the
biggest mouse that ever crept into it."

Inc tairy Palace OF Ludwig Where He
Posed as One Of the Immortal Gods.
A correspondent has inspected the
interior of the late King Ludwig's pal
ace at Chiemsee, where no one was
allowed to penetrate during the life
time of the King. The castle is built
of granite and other stone, and stands
on a broad eminence which slopes
down on both sides to the lake which
lies at its foot. The situation is pc
culiarly charming. In the interior of
this singular structure there is not a
single room that resembles any other
in the place. Each department is a
complete masterpiece in itself. and
each is 80 beautiful that the mind re-
fuses to believe that any thing more
lovely can follow" One of the floors
is of rosewood, inlaid with woods of
darker colors in curious designs The
tables are of malachite. apis 1azuh and

King 'ised to pace the mirrored hall
and the other rooms of this superb
palace in the light of six thousand
candles, and would spend the entire
night in this solitary walk. until morn

on the balcony overlooking the lake.

He had to do it that way, for he had

Indeed" said Reginald, growing
suddenly less madly enthusiastic.
''Yes, Reginald, papa is poor, and
we are proud of it, very proud, for he
is honest"
This was ''fresh news to the young
man.
..And a Congressman" said Regi-
nald, in q reflective tone.
Eyes, Reginald, but as poor as he is,
he will have glorious record to leave
to his child"
h Reginald picked up his hat and cane,
brushed the powder off his coat-front,
smoothed his tangled whiskers, and
drew himself up to his full stature.
Celeste" he said, coldly; "Celeste,
l regret exceedingly that l have been
mistaken in you. I, too. am like your
father. I have a record. Too much
record in the family is not beneficial.
If you could mortgage your fathers
