Miss Muloch says: 81 have been

In an Oxford museum may be seen
strange stone. II Is composed Of car
Donate OF lime. and was taken from n
pipe which carries of drain water In a
colliery. The stone consists OF alter
nate layers Of black and white, 80 that
Il has a striped appearance. This was
caused in the following way: When the
miners were at work, the water which
ran through the pipe contained a good
deal Of coal dust, and 80 left black de-
poslt In the pipe. Bur when no work
was going on, rs, for Instance, In the
night, the water was clean, and so
white layer was formed. IL time ,6eso
deposits quite filled the pipe, and II was
therefore taken up. Then IL was found
that the black and white layers formed
quite a calendar. small streams. alter
nately black aud white, showed week,
and then came white streak " twice
the usual size. This was Sabbath, dur
ing which there was, Of course, no
work for tweDty-four hours. But In
the middle OF one week there came
white streak Of twice the usual size. On
inquiry, IL was found that on that day
large fair had been held In the neigh
borhood, and no work had been done st
the collIery. Every change In the
course of work had left it mark on this
strange stone, ~ which has been given
the title Of ''The Sunday stone"

Josh BiiIings' Dog.

1t Is told Of Josh Billings that once
trampIng with yellow dog as his com.
panion he fell among some Yale boys In
a Connecticut village hotel. They took
him for farmer from way-back, and set
out to have some fun with him. On
their inquiring with affected interest
after the health Of his wife and children,
Josh with counterfeited simplicity, gave
them graphic account Of his family and
farm. "Of course you belong to the
church" ?" asked one of the boys. Eyes,
the Lord be praised, aud my father aud
grandfather before me-" "Now, sup
pose you would not tell u lie, said one
OF the students. mot for the world"
"what will you take for that dogi"
pointing to Josh cur " hich WAS crouch
ing beneath his chair. III won't take
$40 for that dog" Twenty dollars !
Why, he amt worth 20 cents" 81 as
sure you ] would not take $40 for him."
"Come, my friend," said the student,
who, with his companions, was bent on
having some fun with the old man.
"Now, you say you won't tell lilo for
the world. Let me see II you will not
do IL for $40. 1 will give you t20 for
that dog" "l'll not take It." "You will
not? Here let me see IL this will not
tempt you to tell lle," added the stu
dent, producing a small bag Of half dol
lars, which he built up In small piles on
the table. Josh was sitting by the able.
with his hat Ia his hand, apparently un-
concerned. ''Tbere," added the student,
"there are $40, all Ia silver; I will give
you that for the animal" Josh quietly
raised his hat 20 the edge Of the table,
aud IA quick as thought scraped all the
money into il except Que half dollar, and
then exclaimed: II won't take your $40
Nineteen and half Is A. much as That

Ife Resigned.

A story they tell about Andrew Jack,
the veteran railway mail clerk, comes in
well at this time, when they are making
40 many changes in the postal service.
Jack is the oldest railway clerk In
Maine, and there are few, il any, on the
postal-cars If anywhere rs old as he !;
yet he is active, efficient, aud as sharp
as a letter of removal from Villas.
Years ago another fellow succeeded In
getting himself appointed TO I'LL Jacks
place. OF course Jack consented TO
make one or two trips TO show him the
ropes. 1t happened that on the first
trip they made together there was an
accident and the car was thrown from
the track. Jack caught firmly hold Of
his table when he felt the first jar and
came out of the accident unscaIheil and
not the least disconnected. The novice
was flung into heap In one corner and
badly bruised.
"Does this sort Of thing happen very
often ?' he asked Jack.
"Oh, yes" said Jack. "And | for
got to tell you that we all have place
to cling to when it comes. You must
have n holding place purposely fixed to
get stiff grip on with your hands,"
The top Of the car was much battered
by time, and the new man asked, before
they had gone much further on the
route:
"Mr. Jack, what has made these scars
In the top Of this carr"
"That's nothing" said Jack. "lt's
only where my heels have struck when
Ihave been tossed into the air by acci-
dents such as we have had this morn
ing"
When he had finished their run the
new appointee said he guessed he had
enough of it, and would go back to
selling groceries for living, and Jack
staid in the railway mail service then
and ever after.

whom the unfortunate man had never

her last illness. and, after her death,
did what she could To make the grief
stricken husband and his two little chill
dren as comfortable as possible.
Such devotion did not 20 unrewarded.
The man proposed aud was accepted.
He married the faithful girl. Two chill
dren were the result OF their union.
During his years of blindness the sight
les. man never lost hopes that some day
he might sgsin look into the beauties of
nature and see the loved ones around
him.
A physician was dnally consulted,
who agreed 10 attempt the removal Of
the cataract. The operation was sue
cessful, and he from whom the light Of
day had been shut out so many years
saw again. He was almost beside him

once recognized, came leading lady by
the hand.

At Eorty-Eight.

At twilight, vis-a-vis with fate.
She sat unhappy and alone;
Her milestones numbered forty-e!ght,
No other pathway crossed her own.
No tender voice robbed age OF gloom,
No smiling faces cheered her sight
There only glided through the room
The phantom Of dead delight.
"How dim and drear the pathway seems"
She said, "to me at forty-eight;
Long since l wakened from my dreams
seek for naught; for nothing wait.
"Im like one who blindly gropes
Toward fading sunsets in the West;
Behind me, like youth s.shattered hopes,
What can ask for now but rest?
"Some joys sought with heart on fire
Would find me now but all too late
l watched ambitions funeral pyre
Burn down ere was forty-eight.
with naught to hope, expect, or win,
This lonely lot remains to me:
To count the wrecks of what has been
And know that nothing more can be-
Too sad to weep. too tired to pray,
Alone she sat at forty eight,
While sunset colors paled TO gray
How desolate, how desolate!
