A Story of the Cid.

A strange story is told Of the Cid. He
was considered inyinciblc by the Mo0rs,
and brave rs were the turbaned warriors
they never could withstand the redoubt-
able champion Of Spain. In the midst
OF campaign the Cid died. Grief and
dismay fell over the entire Spanish sol
diery, and IS an attack from the Moors
was imminent, the fear OF defeat in
creased their sorrow. At length it was
resolved to place the dead man, dressed
in complete armor, with helmet on and
visor down, upon his war mule, and thus,
following once more their leader, the
Spanish knights rode against the Zoe.
The dread Cid, though powerless 10 strike
q blow and cold in death, was 50 feared
by the Moors that they ned the Chris
tians pursued and gained great victory.
No lofty tomb marks the spo, where
the Cid found q grave. In cheap glass
covered case in the town hall Of Burgos
his bones and dust and Ximena'5 are ex-
posed to view. This little handful Of
bones and . bottle filed with small pieces
of the skeleton. are all that Spain las t.
remind her Of her once brave and formid-
able champion, Don Rodrigo de Bivar -

MOISTURE ~ HOUSES.
A Bit OF Scientific reformation for the
Hou-ckeepcr's Benefit.


4 i stated that the sudden change Of
the weather recently. from cold to warm
and damp, has caused thousands Of dol
lars Of damage to wall paper and other
articles in houses. OF course 10 has. and
it is so simply because many people do
not study the plainest common sense
principles in airing their houses.
one evening lately people went 70 bed
with a hunt for extra blankets because
Of the sudden and severe chill in the at.
mosphere. When they rose IN the morn
ing, their bedrooms, parlors, dining
rooms. etc. were yet chilly from the
cold Of the previous day, while the out
side atmosphere had suddenly become
not only warm, but hot and oppressive
with dampness.
Inconsiderate people opened their win
dows and doors because the weather was
warm, forgetting that the excessive
moisture in the atmosphere would rush
in with tho warm air and swiftly deposit
itself on the cold walls. furniture, etc.
aud penetrate wall papers, curtains, bed
ding, and everything within reach that
presented Il surface colder than the air
that carried it into the house.
OF course the moisture lOOsened and
discolored paper; made curtains as limp as
a wash rag; made beds damp and musty
and generally spoiled everything that
water could spoil; but all could have
been avoided by following the plain, COM
mon sense rule Of not opening houses
suddenly to suddenly changed atmos
phere. carrying an excessive quantity OF
moisture.
A pitcher filed with cold water and
placed in a room in summer viii sweat
at least that IS what it is commonly
called The pitcher does not sweat, be
cause it is not porous and cannot sweat
but the cold water inside Of It chills the
outer surface, and rs soon as the outer
surface OF the pitcher becomes cooler
than the atmosphere in the room, the
moisture of the air will be preciptated
upon the pitcher in drops.
This simple illustration should teach all
housewives 10 avoid suddenly opening
rooms in house when the outside at
mosphero is warmer than the Temporal
ture Of the rooms and full of moisture
I'm all such cases the wall paper furni-
tIre, etc, being cooler than the outside
air, will speedily have the moisture Of
the atmosphere precipitated upon them.
and it will require days 10 restore the
house 10 the dry condition that j. essen
tlal 10 health.
There are no arbitrary freaks in the
laws which govern the atmosphere sur
rounding rs. and there Is nothing alb
struse in mastering them. Warm, damp
air will over precipitate rs moisture Ia
houses or elsewhere whenever 10 comes
in contact with anything chilled by
cooler atmosphere, and that is the whole
story. The only thing to be added Is
that, when people have thus ignorantly
or negligently allowed their houses to
become damp, they should light fires
and dry them as promptly as possible

The date palms, which form the wealth
Of the Arabs of the desert. and one Of
which now waves It's long boughs in the
breeze before us, are all female; the male
OF pollen bearing flowers Of the date kind
always grow on a separate tree; and as
pollen is produced by them in vast guam
titles, it is not necessary in palm groves
TO have more than single male stem 10
some forty or fifty fruit bearing indiyid'
uals. The Arabs, therefore, never raise
their palms from seed, as they cannot
make sure Of the sex OF seedlings; they
take suckers from tho root Of a female
tree, already known to DO a good bearer
OF fine fruit; and these suckers not only
follow the sex Of the 50 called mother,
but also reproduce its special peculiari'
ties Of flower and seed in every respect
They cannot fail to Do so, indeed, seeing
that they are part and parcel of the origi.
nal palm, actual members Of the self
same plant; Just as the various branches
of an apple tree ell bear the same kind :
apples, or the boughs OF currant busa
all produce the self same currants. Pop

III visited Oxford and found some few
little short bright tObsccos (cutiers and
smokers), which WIRE selling outrageous
Is high. I also visited Henderson, N. G.,
where found exactly the same state of
affairs; all cOncurring in the statement
that there would be but few wrappers in
the crop, and a majority OF the people
with whom talked said the new crop
was far worse than they had thought II
would BE-. They also said in Henderson
and Oxford. n. G., that the farmers were
now selling the best OF the new crop. a.
the common to5accos were not bringing
any money Z. Mel.
