Captured by Blind Detective.

There used to be young blind man who
sold cigars at a stand on Winter street or
there abou,s. Ordinarily the sales were of
single cigars or small packages of cigarettes,
and the dealer, being expert in the handling
of coins, had no difficulty in making change.
Sometimes paper money would be given
him, and then the blind man had to trust the
honor OF his patrons not 10 give Counterfeits.
One day man came to him who wanted to
buy lot of cigars, and offered a So note in
payment. The blind man trusted his honesty,
took the 50 bill, and gave what change was
due him in silver. The bill proved to be
counterfeit Some time aflcrward the
swndler, secure in the inability of the dealer
to identify him, came back to the blind mans
stand and bought cigar.
81 should think" he said nonchalantly TO
the dOaler, "that you'd sometimes have
counterfeit money passed on you"
"Oh, no, said the dealer, nobody would
impose on poor blind man like me-"
sop said the sharper. His victim had
thrown him off his guard Evidently" he
thought, "ihe blind man succeeded in pass.
ing the bill, and nobody discovered that it
WAS bad till it got into the third or fourth
mans hands. So here's q chance to get him
again.
"O( course" said the sharper again aloud,
nobody would come such game on
you. BY the way, got lot of cigars Of
you awhile ago that were good. Got any
more of the samcY"
YES, sir"
"All right. I'll take another So worth"
The blind man got up like flash and
seized him by the arms.
80 you're the man that passed the coun-
terfeit 50 bill on me, are you ?" he exclaimed
Help! Theft
There was crowd on the street, and the
man had plenty Of help to secure the swind-
Ter, who was promptly marched off to the
station, where quite supply Of counterfeit
money was found on his person.

A Thistle for Scotland.

There is much obscurity as to the circum-
stances under which the thistle was adopted
as its emblem by the Scottish nation, but the
following is a tradition: Queen Scotia had
led her loops in n well-fougnt field, and when
the day was won, retired to the rear to
rest from her tolls. She threw herself upon
the ground, when, as i'll luck would have it,
an envious thistle had elected to grow at the
very spot selected for her repose. Whether
the fair Amazon fought in the national cos
tune, know not, but the spines of the Of
Tended herb were sufficiently powerful to
penetrate the skin in very painful manner
A proverbial philosopher mot Mr.. Upper,
l think has declared that "he that stteth on
netlles riseth up quickly" and the same re-
mark holds good OF thstles. Queen Scotia
sprang up and tore the thistle up by the
roots She was about to cast il from her with
amilitary, but unlady-ike expression, when it
struck her that the prickly plant would
henceforth be ever associated in her mind
with the glorious victory which she had just
gained. Her intention was changed. She
placed the thistle in her casque and 1t became
the badge of her dynasty.

Death of the Crazy Quilt.

1t will perhaps be gratifying TO many per-
sons to learn that the crazy quilt is thing
OF the past. The legion of insane bed quilts
that have been the aim in life of sewing
societies and invalid woman, and have fgur-
ed in church fairs, missionary donations and
country expositions for a few years back have
at last joined the silent throng of sweet
memories, and along with their "log cabin"
predt cessOrs, the alabaster vases and cone
baskets of our childhood, will soon be num-
bered with the semi-antique; they will be
relocated to the garnet with the macreme
table lambrequin, the tidy and the worsted
motto aud countless orther questionable in-
dlcntiOns Of a perverted feminine taste
The intentions of the inventor OF this affair
were good; in her bosom blossomed the flower
OF economy anu thrift; stray bits silk, stray
bits OF thread-stray bits Of time-the whole a
fascinating diagram, monument to memory,
memorial sacred to the past-to gowns and
d ar ones long since laid peacefully to rest in
the ashes of the past.
When, 10 Fashion winked at Folly, who
grasped it in her bill and flew, so wing ii
broadcast.
What is the result?
Nothing too sacred to be sacrificed at the
shrine OF the crazy quilt
Tapestries, furniture fabrics, altar cloths ;
aye, honor, truth, principle, cravats, all have
gone the way of this fell destroyer of mascu-
line comfort and human happiness.
Table spreads, tides, scarfs, banners, pin
cushions, sofa pillows, chair seats, shopping
bags, all ieartuliy and wonderfully designed
aud executed; terror-strlkers TO the unculliva-
ed taste of the unappreciatiye, have been
Haunted in the face OF man regardless.
But now the silk counter is no longer be-
sieged for samples; stern-hearted man has
taken the paddock Oft his cravats and his hat
lining,a woman pines for something that
will produce headache and hysteria with
greater speed than the loved crazy patch
work.
In country fairs they still hold good mis-
sionaries and cannibas are receiving them in
foreign lands and on the books of the Record
ing Angel they are registered
ITO the memory Of women who sold their
souls for bits of satin; women who expended
the last penny in the domestic treasury for
storks in applique; women who made fancy
stitches the study of life time who begged,
bought stole, or otherwise surrepttiously
acquired silks to cut up and sew together
again, to embroider, handpaint, applique, and
otherwise deiace in the service of the crazy
quilt; nerves, brains, health, happiness, all
offered at the shrine OF this horrible and
malignant affair
May a kindly fate copsign it to that bourne
whence crazy quilts never return.

the greatest of pleasure. In Latin it would
be, Ego ct mater mca." The whole point
turns on The fact, that in English, you put the
other person first and yourself second, while
in Latin that process is reversed. The his-
torical incident asked for is very old and
oft repeated story. Cardinal Wolsey wrote
a State paper in which he often used the
phrase, Ego ct Rex meus," and his king,
Henry VIII, remarked: 1T may be good
Latin, but it is very bad manners"

Try Not to Cough.

A physician who is connected with an in
stltution which contains many children, saws :
There is nothing more irritating to cough
than to cough. For some time had been so
fully assured of this that | recently determin-
ed, if possible for one minute, at least, to les
sen the number of coughs heard in a certain
ward in the hospital of the institution. By
the promise OF rewards and punishments /
succeeded in inducing them simply TO hold
their breath when tempted to cough, and in
a little while was myself surprised to sc @
how some of the children entirely recovered
from their disease.
Constant coughing is precisely like
scratching wound on the outside of the
body so long as it is done the wound will
not heal. Let n person when tempted to
cough, draw long breath and hold il until
it warns and soothes every air cell, and some
benefit will soon be received from the pro-
cess. The nitrogen, which is thus refined,
acts as an anodyne to the irritated mucus
membrane, alaying the desire to cough and
giving the throat and lungs a chance TO heal.
AT the same time suitable medicine will aid
nature in her effort TO recuperate. "-BaNi-

Asbestos for Filtration.

Finely picked asbestos is now said to he
the best method for facilitating the filtration
of viscd liquors, the superiority of this ma
terial over any kind of paper in use being
most decided. The method pursued for &C.
complishing this result is that of diluiing
with considerable proportion of water, and
then Incorporating with the mixture small
quantity of previously-ignited, finely picked
asbestos, and then thoroughly shaking after
about twelve hours, all suspended matters
easily removed by means of siphon. The
operation of washing and shaking isrepeated
once or twice with fresh water, and the
whole mixture finally passed through glass
funnel, the neck of which contains pellets of
asbestos, and, II The first portion ofthe filtrate
runs off cloudy, it is poured hack until it is
clear. Any description Of matter which is
found adhering to the funnel is easily wiped
off by means of small pellet of asbestos,
and added to the rest
