One of GOralon's Men,

"Gordon," said Plunkett, after a short pause, "had CT fellow in his old brigade that haven't heard of since the war and I'd like mighty well to know what became of him. 'Gordon's Bull,' he was called.
 ''I think he belonged to the Thirteenth Georgia regiment, and if I were to tell you how that man could holler you'd not believe it; but you know it is seven miles ercross to the East Tennessee railroad, and I'll bet you might put Gordon's Bull over there and let one of the big engines blow it's whistle, and let him holler, and you could hear his voice above the locomotive"
 ''I've heard of that fellow," said Brown, speaking for the first time, land he was red headed"
 "Yes," continued Plunkett, taking no notice of Browns Interruption, 'you could always tell where Gordon's brigade was by that fellows holler, and think that after Gordon got up higher he exempted him from duty, just on account of his voice. He could call the brigade together any time when they'd got scattered, and it was always joyful sound to the broken down straggler that had fallen behind during the day and, overtaken by darkness, footsore and hungry, found his way to camp by the guidance of this wonder full mans voice."-'Sarge" ill Atlanta Con- StitutiOn

The Rule of Thumb.

When, during the late war, a story was told of contractors wife having been seen with big diamond ring upon her thumb it was thought to be malicious invention of the enemy, few people knowing that 300 years ago it was the fashion to wear ring upon the thumb. Several of Queen Eliza beth's rings that are still extant and we'll identified are so large that there can be no doubt that they were thumb rings. It was at about the same era the custom, indeed, not only to wear ring upon the thumb but to wear the wedding ring there.
 The customs in relation to wedding rings have, however, always been as strange as countless, ever since there have been wedding rings at all. Mary Stuart was married to Lord Darnley with four rings, one not being sufficient. Twelve wedding rings were not considered an extravagant number among the early French nobles. The Greek church still uses two in it's ceremonial, and in some parts of the peninsula three rings are used, each being put on with an adjuration to @ separate member of the Trinity. We do not know that this is any more singular than a practice prevalent anywhere among ourselves for woman who has been twice married to wear the wedding rings of both husbands, quite regardless of the possibility of the first husbands apparitional return to claim her by means of the sign manual he had once placed on her finger, and by which he might still hold her as bound to himself.-Harper's BaZar

AnecdOte of the Crown Prince


 An old soldier contributes to The Pots damer Zeitung this story: "One morning in May, 1859, l, then serving in the First Regi- ment of Foot Guards, was marching with my comrades along the road between Sans Souci and the Orangegebaude toward the village of Eiche. We had just arrived at the broad avenue which leads from the new palace into the road, when the crown prince and his family appeared in sight, little Prince Wilhelm ill a panier donkey, led by a nurse, the crown prince and princess arm in arm, about twenty yards behind him.. When the crown prince perceived us he called out 'Lebanau, let your company halt a moment Then he stepped up to the don key, lifted the little prince out of his panier, and came toward us Good morning, kin der,' said tht crown prince to us and we shouted back in unison, Good morning, your royal highness' I want just to show you my little son., and he made the little prince shake hands with his tiny fist with every grenadier.
 "The crown princess stood by, smilingly watching the scene. When we had all been shaken hands with the crown prince again wished us good morning. and continued his walk; we went on in capital spirits to our field duties Second Lieut.. von Liebenau, who was then in command of our company, is now well known court chamberlain to Prince Wilhelm. Only a man, who in his soldier days, has been an actor in a scene like that, can feel how bond is formed thereby between prince and people which nothing but death can break."-New York Tribune

Growth of the Catalpa Tree.

A curious example of the rapid growth of the catalpa tree is to be seenin Independence square, Philadelphia Several years ago labels bearing the scientific and common names of the trees were affixed to all the trees in the square. The labels are rectangu- lar metallic plates, each attached to staple driven into the tree from which it was sus- pended. As the trees have increased in girth the staple has been gradually buried and the plates tilted up. Many of them are at an angle approaching the horizontal, but the plate on catalpa tree is buried an inch or more under the bark. and is firmly fixed in that position. The astonishment of the arch eologist of one of the future centuries who, ill seeking for traces of the cradle of liberty, comes upon tree with its scientific name inlbedded in it's trunk may be imagined Chicago Herald.

Facts Concerning Inherited Diseases.

FactS EOncern1nS- inherited Diseases.
 In the realm of disease, the facts of in- heritance are most numerous, and are daily accommodating. Here they are no longer, alas, curious and amusing, but terrible, fate full, overwhelming. No fact of nature is more pregnant with awful meaning than the fact of the inheritance of disease It meets the physician on his daily rounds, paralyzing his art, and filling him with sadness The legend of the ancient Greeks pictured the malignant Fures pursuing families from generation to generation, and rendering them desolate. The Furies still ply their work of terror and death; but we have stripped them of the garb which superstition threw around them, and they now appear to our eyes in the more intelligible but not less awful form of hereditary disease. Modern science, which has cast illumination into so many dark cor ners of nature, has shed new and still more lurid light on the words of the Hebrew Scrip ture: ''The sins of the fathers shall be visited upon the children unto the third and fourth generation"
 Instances of hereditary disease abound on every hand Fully 50 per cent. of cases of gout are inherited. The proportion is not much less in that fell destroyer of families, our national scourge, consumption Cancer and scrofula run strongly in families. In- sanity is hereditary to marked degree, but, fortunately, like many other hereditary dis eases, tends to wear itself out, the stock be- coming extinct. Nearly all defects of sight are occasionally inherited. Sir Henry Hol- land says truly that mo organ or texture of the body is exempt from the chance of being the subject of hereditary disease" Probably most chronic diseases which permanently modify the structure and functions of the body are more or less liable to be inherited.

Studying to Be Veterinarians.

Throughout the United States at the present time there are probably 800 persons studying to be veterinarians; fifteen years ago there were not twenty students in the whole country, and there was but one college. There are few men who have not graduated from any college who are competent veterin- arians. They have read, studied and prac- ticed until they are quite competent; just the same as in the early days of this country a certain number of men studied medicine by themselves and became good physicians without the aid of collegiate training. But there are very few competent veterinarians who are not graduates of some veterinary college.-D. c. Comstock, M. D., in The Epoch

 of Dealing with Refractory Pupils.
 Nothing seems to have been more charac- terlatlc of MT. Frederick w. Gum as a school master than his punishments. They were so original, so good humored they never wounded self-respect. They taught their lesson, but they left no sting of humiliation behind. A boy who had been guilty of rude- ness was told to put on his best clothes in the evening and make call uron family of gentle ladies in the village They were i'll the secret and would entertain him graciously. and he would go away, after a delightful evening, feeling the softening influences of good breeding without having been lectured by anybody. A too noisy boy would be sent off to take five mile walk, ordered to hold a chip in his mouth for an hour, or to run a dozen times around the church on the green, sounding the tin dinner horn at each corner. If two small boys were caught fighting they were made to take turns sitting in each others laps for one or two hours. If a boy were too lively in the sitting room he was sent out to pound a log with a heavy club.
 Once MT. Gum caught boy sprinkling dogs face with water at the tank behind the "Gunnery." He was very fond of dogs, often having one on his lap and the other at his feet as he sat at the head of his school. He seized the boy and duczed him, just to let him know how the dog felt A boys birth day was always holiday for him. When MT. Gum found that one of the scholars had been celebrating three birthdays within a year he kept his counsel, but the next time the genuine anniversary came round the boy celebrated it by hugging tree for several hours. Once one of the scholars was found hugging sign post at the fork of two roads, and saying in response to all questions: "pm poor, miserable sinner" Everybody knew this was under orders from the ''Gunnery"
 Some boys who had been robbing the apple trees of the neighbors were compelled to draw up a formal apology, bear it in proces- sion to each owner and read to these as- tonished people on their knees A boy who had stoned COW was made to deliver apeni- tential oration to the whole herd in the barn. yard for half an hour. One day was very lazy one in school. Finally the laziest boy com plained of being sick. ''Any boy who's sick hold up his hand" More than half a dozen of them did it Gin fun," which ended when he master sent them down to Mrs. Gum to receive strong dose of boneset tea One Sunday morning one of the boys could not go to church because he could not find his shoes One shrewd glance from the masters eye told him the whole story. s'Take off those stockings" said he; Ego down stairs and blacken your feet and go to church at once." The boy went to church-in his shoes New York Tribune

forthcoming American Rooms.

Americans are too often credited with originating booms, but enterprises of that class have always existed. Even take Ger many, that home of conservatism, you will find times when the people were crazed over all sorts of bombastic schemes Strassbourg, the famous European railway builder, swim dled his countrymen out of $SO,0O0.O 900 in lines of railway that he projected to gridiron Roumshia and Austro-Hungary, connecting with the German-Turkish and Russian system. American daring was surpassed, and construction gangs were pitched into a naked wilderness without population, savage or civilized, and no prospect of ever raising enough food to sustain the smallest hamlet. Strassbourg built for the sake of building, as every mile represented greater issue of stock and bonds. How far he would have gone can never be estimated. His methods were exposed in tue reichstag, creditors clamored for money, bonds couldn't be given away, and the crash came. The respective governments then took the lines, which have been operated ct e loss evv @uca-GiUbe. OaabctaH:
