Heather Gods In Her Ears.

A physician OF my acquaintance was
called in recently TO see an old lady who
resides in her own house in the Third
ward. 1t was his first call. and he had
never seen the lady before. She lay on a
couch, neatly attired, with her gray hair
in a cluster of small curls at each side of
her head.
Doctor" she said, al have sent 10 con-
suit you on a very serious matter. have
for a long time suffered from pains in the

clans without receiving any benefit. Yes
terday l accidentally swallowed q fish

singular sensation in my left ear. | put
up my hand and drew this from my ear"
She extended toward the doctor a small
leaden statue Of Napoleon, such as used
to be sold on the streets years ago in a
little glass bottle.
"You drew this from your ear?" asked
the doctor.
Yes. doctor. / did" was the reply,
land I have been much easier ever since"
The doctor examined her ear and
found it perfectly natural. lie didn't
know what TO say, but he thought a good
deal.
II want you to do something for me-"
she continued, ''for ! ana satisfied there
is another heather god like this in the
other ear; for it is q heather god, ! have
no doubt"
"How do you suppose it got therey' the
doctor asked.

heather gods in my ears when l was a

A strange natural phenomenon 10 the
pampero, a South American storm wind,
which is described by the author Of
Hearts of Oak" who first made its ac-
q~uaintance during a stay at Montevideo.
A light breeze had been blowing from
the northeast, but had steadily increased
in force, and brought with 1t the heated
air of the tropics, which, passing over a
treeless pampa country, exposed to the
burning sun rays of a clear sky, so
warns up the atmosphere on the shores
of the Rio de La Plata that its effect upon
human beings is exceedingly bad.
This state OF things generally lasts for
a week, or longer, until the sitting heat
becomes unbearable and the inhabitants
are seen resting In grass hammocks or
lying On bare floors, incapable Of exer-
ton. However, relief Is close at hand.
A little cloud mo bigger than a mans
hand" is first seer TO rise above the
water, then the heavens grow black with
clouds, and the battle of opposing winds
begins.
The pampero advances with its artil-

lightning, followed by peals of thunder,
bear down upon the foe, who, quite up
to the moment of attack, is fiercely dis
charging its fiery breath on the surround
ing regions. The inhabitants now climb
on the azoteas, or fat roofs, to watch the
struggle and to be the first TO participate
In the delicious relief BROUGHT by the
pampero to their fevered bodies.
Far out on the river a curious sight
may be seen; the opposing waves, raised
by the rival winds, meet like a rush of
cavalry in wild career; their white horses
with foaming crests dash themselves
against each other and send clouds of
dazzling spray high in the air; this being
backed by an inky sky renders the scene
most imposing.
Gradually the northeaster gives way,
followed closely by its enemy, the pam.
pero, which throws out skirmishing cur.
rents Of ice cold wind in advance Of its
final onslaught. Then comes the roar of
the elements, and a deluge such as no
one would willingly encounter, and
cooler weather is established for the time
being.

LITTLE BROWN HANDS"

They drive home tho cows from the pcstufe
Up through the long shady lane,
Where the quail whistles loud in the wheat Geld
All yellow with ripening grain
They find. In the thick waving grasses
Where the scarlet Tipped strawberry grows
They gather the earliest snowdrops,
And the first crimson buds of the rosa
They toss the hay In the meadow,
They gather the elder blooms white,
They find where the dusky grapes purple
In the soft tinted October light
They know where the apples hang ripest,
And are sweeter than Italy's wines;
They know where the fruit u the thickest
On the long. thorny blackberry vines
They gather the delicate sea weeds.
And build tiny castles OF sand:
They pick UP the beautiful sea shells
Fairy barks that have drifted TO land.
They wave from the tall. rocking tree tops
Where the orioles hammock nest swings
And mt night time are folded In siumber
BY a song that a fond mother sings-
Those who toll bravely are strongest;
The humble aud poor become great;
And from those brown handed children
Shall grow mighty rulers OF state.
The pen Of the author and statesman,
The noble and wise Of our land;
The sword and chiSel and palette
Shall DO held In the little brown hand.

why He Wen Ont.

A good housewife at the Highlands
wished TO surprise her husband by Civ
ing him some Of a particular kind Of
cake Of which he was very fond. She
took great pains with the mixture, meas

most care, for she was determined TO
produce the best loaf she ever made.
When the good man came in to tea and
saw the handsome loaf, his heart went
out towards his wife in renewed affec-
ton. The cake was finally cur, but the
first mouthful he took made him look
puzzled. and soon he left the table. The
wife was curious to know why he went
out, and noticing that he had left his
cake almost untasted she broke OF a
little piece and put it In her mouth.
Horrors! cayenne pepper! where did

kitchen. Going into the pantry she
looked at the box where she got her Gin
