AfphaniStan Wind Mills.

A clipping from the Milling World
says that Thomas Stevens, who recent
ly bicycled around the world, has given
the following description of peculiar
wndmils used on the frontier OF
Afgbanistan. in Asia: High noon
finds us at our destination for the day.
the village of Tabbas. famous in all the
country ronnd for II peculiar windmill
used in grinding grain. A grist-mill or
mills consists of n row of one storied
mud huts, each of which contains n
pair of grindstones.
Connecting with the upper stone is a
perpendicular shaft of wood which pro-
trudes through the roof aud extends
fifteen feet above it. Cross pieces run
through at right angles, and plated
with rushes transform the shaft into
al uprig four. bladed affair that the
wind blows round and turns the mill
stones below. So far this is only very
PRINT We and clumsy method of har-
Messing the W nd, but connected with
it is Il very ingenious eontrivancc that
redeems it entirely from the common
place.
A system of mud walls is built,
about the same height or little higher
than the shaft, in such manner as to
concentrate and control the wind in
the interest of the miller. regardless of
which way the wind is blowing. The
suction created by the peculiar sposi-
ton of the walls whisks the rude wat
tie sails around in the most lively man.
ner Fort of these mills are in opera
ton at Tabbas, and To see them all In
full swing, making a loud ''sweshing'
nose as they revolve. in a most extra
ordinary SIGHT. Aside from Tabbas,
these novel grist-m lis are only to be
seen in the territory about the Seistan
lake

Rest Would Save Him

DR.. Hammond says in an article on
"Overworked Brains:" As rule, the
American never wants to retire. He
has an idea that it is his duty ito die
with the harness on" Accordingly he
keeps himself in the traces. he works
day and night, his hours OF recreation
to a min mum, he doesn't even give
himself sufficient time to eat his meals
in such way that his food can be most
easily digested, the tension of his ncrv-
Gus system is rarely if ever entirely re-
laxed. He has his wish--he dies with
the harness on" but his death takes
place eight or ten years earlier than it
would If he had known how to do his
work without excitement. and to give
himself the repose which advancing
years require. -Eoeaiag Wisconsin.

"'Why," asked the fat passenger, "does
an engineer always call his engine 'sheY"
There was a moment of embarrassing
silence, when the man on the wood box
said something about cher head-lg /"
which was followed by hollow groan
all along the line.
Because" ventured the tall, thin pas
senger 1.-The more you throttle her the
faster she goes"
But this was barred out under the
rules. The man with the Gample case
suggested because she runs the mail, )"
but everybody said "Ah, there" so sar-
castically that he apologizcd The cross
passenger said because there was so much
hustle and bang about her." and he was
fined cigars for the crowd on the spot
The bashful passenger said maybe it was
because she pulled the smoker" and he
was Kissed off the stage
And longer had they sung, but the
woman who talks bass closed the lodge
by croaking: Because we couldn't get
along without her."

Place Your Hand in Mine, Wife.

Ills five and twenty years to-day
Since we were man and wife
And that's tidy slice, say,
From anybody's life.
And if we want, in looking back,
To feel how time has flown.
There's Jack, you see, my baby Jack,
With whiskers of his own.
Place your hand in mine, wife
We've loved each other true,
And still, in shade or shine, wife,
There's love to help US through.
It's not been all smooth sailing, wife--
Not always laughing May;
Sometimes it's been a weary strife
To keep the wolf away
We've had our little tiffs, my dear:
We've often grieved and sighed;
One lad has cost US many a tear.
Our little baby died.
Place your hand in mine, wife,
We've loved each other true;
Aud still, in shade or shine, wife,
There's love to help us through.
But, wife, your love along the road
Has cheered the toughest spell;
You've borne your half of every load,
And often mine as well.
"l'ye rued full many foolish thing
Ere well the step was taken;
But, oh I'd haste 10 buy the ring
Aud wed you ore again.
Place your hand in mine, wife
We've loved eacl other true;
And still, in she e or shine, wife,
There's love TO help us through.
Twas YOU that made me own the hand
That's working all along,
In ways We cannot understand,
Still bringing right from wrong.
You've kept Inc brave and kept me true,
You've made me trust and pray;
Ny gentle evening star were you,
That blessed the close of day.
Place your hand in mine, wife
We've loved each other true;
And still, in shade or shine, wife,
There's love to help us through.
