How to Read q Jury.

Officials in criminal courts who
take trouble to make a study of ju-
rors can usually tell just what sort
Of verdict a jury will give as soon
as it's members return after delib-
Grating upon a case, says the New
York Times. There is always some
thing in their faces which indicates
to the experienced eye whether the
verdict is guilty or not guilty.
"This man is going to be acquitted.
sure" )" said an old court officer in
general sessions as a jury came in
with verdict in an important case
a few days ago. "You see, about
every man in the box turned his
face to the defendant as soon as he
took his seat. That's always sure
sign. never knew it to fail. When
the verdict is for conviction the ju-
rors invariably keep their eyes on
the Judge or on the ceiling. Men,
bers of . convicting jury often seem
to 6nd it very difficult to look upon
the prisoner, even when the clerk
instructs them to do so. / suppose
the explanation of it is that with
most people it is a hard matter to

Forty Winka.

Sleep is closely connected with
the question of diet: Good sleep
ing" was a noticeable feature in the
large majority of DR.. Humphreys
cases, writes DR.. Robson Rose to
the Fortnightly Review. Sound,
refreshing sleep is Of the utmost
consequence to the health of the
body, and no substitute can be
found for it as a resterer of vital
energy. Sleeplessness is, however,
often source of great trouble to
elderly people, and one which is
not easily relieved. Narcotic rem
edies are generally mischievous;
their first effects may be pleasant,
but the habit of depending upon
them rapidly grows until they be-
come indispensable. When this
stage has been reached the sufferer
is in a far worse plight than before
In all cases the endeavor should be
made to discover whether the Sleep
lessness be due to any removable
cause, such as indigestion, cold,
want of exercise and the like. In
regard to sleeping in the daytime,
there is something to be said both
for and against the practice. A nap
of ''forty winks" in the afternoon
enables many aged people to get
through the rest of the day in COM
fort, whereas they feel tired and
weak when deprived of this refresh
ment. If they rest we'll at night
there can be no objection to the
afternoon nap, but if sleeplessness
be complained of the latter should
be discontinued for a time. Most
old people find that reclining pos
ture, with the feet and legs raised,
is better than the horizontal posi-
ton for the afternoon nap. Diges-
ton proceeds with more ease than
when the body is recumbent.,

SPOKE TOO LATE

We had gone into Winter quar-
iers near Richmond, said an old
soldier to reporter for the Hart
nett (Ga. } Sun. Every day an old
lady would drive to the camp in a
wagon loaded with cake, pies, etc.,
which she disposed of to the half
famished soldiers at exorbitant
prices. One day she came out, and
among other edibles was ''squirel"
pie about the size Of a cheese. Sew
eral of our boys clubbed together
and bought it. The woman pock-
eted the money and was waiting on
some other customers. The men
had the pie about half consumed,
when the old lady's little boy, who
accompanied her, began to cry as
if his heart would break. The lit
tie fellow was a favorite with the
soldiers, and, of course, We tried to
pacify him. He would not tell US
what he was crying for. Finally
the old lady's patience was ex-
hausted, and she told the boy if he
did not tell the men what he was
crying about she would take the
wagon whip and wear him out.
With the tears still streaming down
his face, he said, between his sobs:
"M-mamy-s-s-said if Id l-let her
kill dem pup-puppies to make dat
pie she'd gi-give me de money, an
she done g-g-gone and put it in her
own pocket-boo-h !" This in
formation came too late, as by this
time the pie had vanished from
sight. Although there were several
attempts made to cause that "squir-
rel pie" to reappear, they were all
Intellectual. The old lady mounted
her wagon and drove away, and we
never saw her again.

The Congregation Smiled.

A story that goes back to the
meetin' house in Wrentham is one
of a worthy man named Habbakuk
P., a resident of the town and a
faithful attendant upon worship,
who had been blessed with four
wives, one after another. Habba-
kuk was rigidly orthodox, as his
name seemed to demand, and was
always in his pew on the Sabbath.
He sat there in his conspicuous
pew with No. by his side ON the
first Sunday after their marriage.
1t was a balmy June day, and the
zephyrs FROM the open window
toyed playtully with the brides
white satin bonnet ribbons and the
groom's silken locks. There was a
stranger in the pulpit who had ex-
changed for the day with the ven
erable Mr.. F., the pastor of the
church. After reading few Scrip
ture passages the stranger proceeded
to read a notice which he had found
in the Bible, and which was as fol-
lows:
"Mr. Habbakuk P-desires the
prayers of the congregation that
the death of his wife may be sane
tilted to him for his spiritual good"
Then, when the congregation was
between stupefaction and explosion
the clergyman went on with the
services at rapid rate. He was at
a loss to know why the congrega-
ton seemed to be throughout the
remainder of the service on the
point of laughter, but at dinner
Mrs. p, the pastors wife, ex-
planned to him that Habbakuk P
sat three rows from the front in
the broad aisle with his brand new
wife, and he had read an old notice
that Mr.. F. had probably been
using for book mark ever since

GOOD MANNERS.

A keen observer of young men
of the present day cannot be struck
with a tendency on a part a great
many of them to disregard the
small courtesies of life-the intang-
ible yet very perceptible little things
that make q man gentleman.
Many persons contend that outward
manner is very secondary consid-
Grafton if the head is we'll stocked
with knowledge, and that if a young
man has the faculty to get on
inthe world it is a matter of very
little Importance if his manners
do not model themselves after
a Chesterfield. That this idea is
prevalent is proved by the great
number of we'll educated men-men
of ability and power, who, clever,
and with no lack of brains, are
painfully deficient in good breed
ing. With no intentional lapses,
they are awkwad, presuming, vul-
gar. In most countries an educated
man and a gentleman are almost
synonomous terms. Educational
advantages are in reach of all classes
of people-people who have not the
benefit of home training for their
manners nor cultivated persons
among their acquaintances. One
fact is true all the world over, that
where, by some freak of nature, a
man shows himself superior to his
own class in intelligence and tall
ents, he is never content to remain
on the lower round of tle ladder.
Desirable as it may be for young
men to shun the extravaganza of
society or despise it's shams, they
cannot afford to neglect the cour-
tesies of life, and they do we'll who,
while devoting their energy to math-
ematics and the classics, pay atten-
ton to the cultivation in manners.
1t is while young that manners are
made; the most strenuous efforts
will not remedy or eradicate in
after life the Impressions and hab-
its formed in y outh.

The Rochester Herald gives the
following graphic history of the
flannel shirt, which will be appre-
ciated by many a miner who has
beheld with regret the comfortable
garment gradually grow smaller and
smaller: 1.-THE flannel shirt is a
atinstitution. When it is brought
home the proud husband and father
dons it and goes forth to defy the
sweltering heat Of q July day. The
next week it is washed and then 1t
is just the right size for the twelve
year-old son. Another week rolls
round and it is a perfect fit for the
baby. The fourth week it descends
to the baby's doll, and the ffth
week it vanishes altogether, disap-
pearing rather mysterionsly. It was
seen to 20 into the washtub, but
that was the last of it. Il never
came out"

Why the Egyptians Remain Poor.

It is no wonder they remain poor
They have been taxed for ages tt
such an extent that they coulc
barely live. Ismail Pasha, the last
Khedive would, am told, otter
collect taxes twice a year, comine
down upon the farmers for a second
sum after he had demanded the
regular amount. If they were not
able to supply it the tax.gatherers
sold their stock at auction, and he
had a right to make such as he
pleased work for him for nothing
At present there are about s, 600, ,OOO
acres of land under cultivation in
Egypt, and there is an agricultural
population of more than 4,OOO,OO
This gives less than one and one
fifth acres per person and the taxes
amount to from 81 to 50 an acre,
and this is only one form of Egyp-
tian taxation. Just outside of Cairo
there is government Office, through
which every piece of produce
brought into the city for sale must
pass, and every article is taxed.
The farmer who brings a donkey
load of grass to the city for sale
must pay PERCENTAGE on it's value
before he can 60 in with it. 1t is
the same with q chicken, q pigeon,
a basket of vegetables or anything
that the farmer raises. Then there
is q tax upon date trees amounting
to 100000 year, upon salt of
more than 81 goo, 900, upon tobacco
and slaughter houses, and, in fact,
upon everything under the Egyp-
tian sun. The donkey-boy here
pays tax, the storekeeper is taxed,
and there is, in addition to this, q
a general tariff of about 8 per cent
on all imports. There are taxes on
sheep and goats, which are paid
whether the animals are sold or not.
There are taxes on wells, taxes on
fisheries, and taxes paid for lands
which Egypt once owned but which
she gave up with the loss of Soudan.
It is no wonder that the Egyptian
people are poor. 1t is q wonder
that they exist at all-frank Car
pontof.

and they would seem to be equally
well adapted for containing a large
variety of articles. They are made
by rolling glued sheets of paper
into long cylinders, which are then
cut into suitable lengths, tops and
bottoms are fitted in, the inside
coated with a waterproof COM
pound, and all this done by ma
chinery almost as quickly as one
can count. They are cheaper and
lighter than galss, unbreakable, and
consequently very popular with
consumers.

4 WouAn's LOYALTY.
An Incident That Increases Respect
for Human Nature. u

| I we'll remember a visit to tn
New Hampshire state prison at Con
cord, which made few years agt
in company with several friends
One little incident of that visit
made vivid impression on my
mind. In the horse-car with US OF
the way to the prison sat quiet
sad-faced little woman. She was
neatly and plainly dressed, and had
a certain air of refinement about
her which showed her to be lady
She came into the prison guard
room with US, and was at once
shown to the warden's private Office
A moment later, as | stood looking
out through heavy-barred windows
across the stone-paved prison yard
at the plain, gloomy-looking stone
buildings containing the workshops
the door of one of them opened,
and an officer, holding in his hand
a heavy revolver, stood out on the
granite steps.
A moment later tall, finely
formed man, clad in the black and
red suit of the prison, passed out in
front of him. As he came slowly
across the prison yard l saw that
his face was q handsome and intel
ligent one. There was something in
his appearance and bearing which,
despite his prison garb, proclaimed
the training and instincts OF gen.
tleman. watched him as he came
up the steps to the guard-room, and
q moment later through the partly
opened door of the warden's office
l saw him clasp to his heart the
little woman who had been our fel-
low passenger, and who threw her.
self into his arms with a passionate
love. Then the door was closed to
shut out from curious eyes all fur
ther sight of that interview. I
looked again across the prison
yard, but there was a mist before
my eyes that seemed to shut off
everything. Later I learned that
the man was forger.
HE came from a good family, I
believe" said the guard, in answer
to my inquiries. "That little woman
is his wife. She has been true as
steel to him through it all. He's
one of the best behaved men in the
prison, and will get considerable
time off his sentence on that ac-
count. He has two years more"
Somehow / couldn't help feeling
that when that man came out from
prison he would 60 to that little
woman, and with her help lead an
honest life. Any community which
could deliberately add one pang to
those already endured by that wo-
man would be worse than heathen.

Stone Carving BY Machinery.

A machine has been set up in
the carving building of the Rhode
Island Granite Works, Westerly
r. L., which will probably revolu.
tionize all former methods of fine
granite, slate and marble cutting.
1t is called the pneumatic carver.
An air cylinder run by steam dis
charges into a receiver, where an
air pressure of from forty to fifty
pounds is carried. The air is fed
out in the carving-room through q
large number Of flexible tubes,
which in turn are attached to the
pneumatic carver" This tool con-
sists of a cylinder in which is a
piston with a transverse annular
valve. The latter controls the sew
eral parts of the piston. The COM
pressed air is admitted alternately
above and below the piston. The
piston is not attached to the spin
die or stem carrying the cutting
tool, but drives it outward. This
movement cuts the stone. The re-
return stroke is made by means OF
q powerful spring. The stroke is
short, but is made with marvellous
rapidity. The machine can be run
at Ii, 900 to 5000 strokes per min
ute. The workman guides the cut
ting tool with his left hand and
controls the pressure with his right
and is abble to turn this marvellous
stone chewer in all directions to
suit his work. The machines make
q noise like the summer locust and
in fact some of the workmen have
dubbed them "stone locusts."

THE OLD PIANO.

Back from the strange and marrow street,
Stands the old house hid by poplars tall;
Kissed by the IA their boughs and leaves.
Tracing odd shapes on its ivied walls.
In the wide garden flowers dream;
Proud royal roses and pinks so sweet.
Dashed In the sunlight's golden rays,
Lnlled by the zephyrs 10 gentle sleep.
Up In an old room, quaint and dim,
Haunted by dreamso Of departed days,
Stands the piano dusty, still
Far from the sunlght's pure golden rays
Out on the still and dreamy air,
Making the tear drops 10 quickly start
Echoes Of old time melodies,
wistfllly come 10 the aching heart
Years fading fast have rolled away;
Lullaby Baby" has swerter grown,
Since through the dusty twilight gray
Came the pianos Low peaceful tones.
Opening memly's caSket vide,
Visions Of chilGhyud loating free;
Vanishing years su quickly flown,
Clustering round is now yellow keys
Silently stands the PAST revealed;
Times misty clouds quickly fade away;
Far the pianos wistiui tones
Lima 'long ago" with the sad today"
