BELIEF IN THE MOONS INFLUENCES
Men are not supersiitious nowadays.
Oh, no. but some Of them kill their hogs
only in the light CT the moon. and plant
their potatoes when it is full. One Of
our citizens relates iemarkable instance
in proof of Luna's effect upou mundane
affairs. He says that in Pennsylvania,
before he left that state, two men put
new roofs upon their houses. One
house was rooted while the moon was
new, and the other while it was either
dark or full. Before he came away the
roof of the former house had drawn up
till a full story had to be put underneath.
while the roof of the latter had pressed
the building down till the lower story
was under ground!-American Maga-

SAVING THE BANK By A RUFF.

Cincinnati Telegram: General Mike
Ryan, III talking. of the Metropolitan
bank failure, told good story illustrat-
ing the power of bluff. 1t was In con-
nection with his assertion that with a lit
tie further aid from the other banks in
the city the Metropolitan might have
been saved, he said:
81 have q brother connected with
bank in Leevenwortb, Kan. There are
| two banks there, and the rival TO that OF
my brother was In shaky condition.
| The president came to Matt and told
| bin the circumstances, and that If there
was a run the bank would be unable to
atand il. Matt told him to keep stiff
| upper lip, for he knew that the failure of
| the other bank meant the failure OF his
own. He jumped on the train, went to
Kansas city, got $40, 600 IN coin-gold
| and siiver-in barrels, ran back TO
Leaveuworth with the specie, and got
half a dozen drays to the depot to take
| the barrels to the bank. Meantime the
| the crowd of depositors had begun to
gather at the bank, demanding their
money, and the cid man was talking to
them 10 gain time. All at once they saw
the drays coming up, loaded dowr with
these barrels. Matt was with the treas
ure, and shouted out to the crowd to
wait about five minutes and they'd get
| their money, as it was there in the barrels.
SIN unloading the barrels one OF them
dropped and broke, SO that through
crack the anxious depositors cOuld see
the shining gold, aud as it rolled up the
steps OF the bank So gold pieces kept
dropping out, and were picked up by the
janItor. When the coin was rolled III
Matt came ont again and told all who
| had money there 10 go In and get it, as
the bank proposed to pay them all off
| and start fresh, and didn't want snch
cowardiy lot of depasitors auy way. All
the time he was piliug on the indignation
| he didn't want to be taken at his word,
as the bank had only $4,000 cash on
hand, against 100000 of deposits made,
lie had brought $40, 900 but there was
| still shortage of $4,000. However,
the game worked. The people were
treasured by the sight of the barrels of
coin and went away satisfied. The run
WAS averted and the bank pulled through
all right.

How SEEDLEss RAIsINs ARE GROWN.
-"What is 'seedless' raisip, end how
is it prodGced?' was asked of an i'm
porter Of fruits. The next time you eat
d piece Of nincs pie" he replied, "you
will find seedless raisin in it, if the
meat has beer properly made. 1t is a
smallisb, cream colored fruit, about the
size of gooseberry, and is used with an
unbroken skin. Tt comes from Smyrna
and is called the 'Sultana.' 1t is grown
seedless simply by arresting one of the
laws Of nature. When the grape is
about half ripe the end of the vine is
bent and buried in the ground. This
prevents the formation of seed and the
full development of the fruit, but it
ripens all the same and has delicious
flavor. "-Philadelphia Times.
