The Process of Making Them Known TO

Youths Companion.I
In villages among the mountains of Vir-
ginia and Pennsylvania, where habits of life
and thought have remained almost unal-
tered for two centuries, an odd custom
still prevails which may be new to our
readers. Prescriptions for the cure of diff
ferent ailments-weak eyes, scrofula, con-
sumption, cancer and hydrophobia-have
been handed down in the same family from
one generation to another.
These prescriptions are never known to
more than one person at time, and it be-
comes his duty to make the remedy and give
it away. According to popular superstition,
If he imparts the secret, or takes money or
any recompense for the medicine, its virtue
is gone. Many of these lotions and cor
dials possess undoubted efficacy, having
been originally distilled from simples and
earths by men who were forced to 90 to
nature for cure, and who came to under
stand some of her resources better than we
do.
A similar superstition exists among the
hungarian peasants, with regard to the
amulets which they wear to protect them
from lightning, poison, or sudden death.
The amulet must be given; as soon as it is
sold it becomes worthless.
The same idea formed the basis of the
custom among the ancient Irish of baking a
cake at every meal for the possible guest
who might chance to come in. When the
meal was finished, too, few crumbs were
thrown outof-doors and on the hearth for
any invisible creature, whether good or
evil spirit who might be hungry.

Some Absurd Actions of American TrayeIe
Across the Atlantic.

Some Absurd Actions of American Trav veIers
Across the Atlantic.
Springfield (Mass.) Union.I
A story that would be ludicrous but for
the disgust that an American must feel upon
reading it is going the rounds of two Young
men from Western State who are doing
Europe. Not that they had the remotest
idea of gaining any benefit from the trip
or that they really saw anything worth
looking at the second time, for the paint
ings in the Louvre and the galleries of the
Luxembourg were no more to them than
chromos given away with packages of poor
tea. They could not understand even 1.-THE
Last Supper"
An intelligent New Yorker took them in
hand and every morning arose early and
laid out route for the day, but the Expo-
sition made them tired and they saw in the
Champs Elysees only place in which to
sit down and talk over thier comrades at
home. The New Yorker finally lost
patience and said that he was tired of hurl-
ing the glories of France against the 'tjelly
fish souls of these two galvanized mummies
from the West" He said that he had asked
them why they came to Europe and they
did not know.
Another story is told of General from
Maine who was doing Europe with his wife
and daughter few years ago. At the door
OF st. Peters at Rome he met an acquaint-
ance from his native State who offered him
copy of the Bangor Wing. St. Peters
had no charm for the American after that.
He took the paper eagerly and sat upon the
steps reading while the wife and daughters
inspected the cathedral
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-08-25

that be would not allow her to be
married until her ugly sister was
provided for. Then the lovely
young lady was called into the
room. When the Prince saw her he fell at
once in love with her, and he realized that he
could notreturn home unless the beautiful girl
accompanied him. But the same feeling of
love had also been awakened within the
heart of the Princess. No sooner did she
behold the handsome youth than her love
few out to him and she resolved then and
there that she would either become the
young mans wife or else die.
Tb, Prince stayed around the castle for
several days thinking and scheming how be
might get to see and talk to the beautiful
lady. But as the Princess was equally
anxious to meet him, his suspense was con-
siderably shortened, and one night while
the young man was fondlv gazing up at the
Kings daug hter's window, he suddenly
noticed a piece of paper falling right in
front Of him. Picking it up the Prince read
these words: go to the Wizard of the
ClOudless Sky and do as he bids your
The ardent young man Immediately went
his way and inquired where the wizard
could be found. After a long search he
found cave at the very summit of high
mountain. Here the wizard lived. The young
Prince at once explained how he happened
to come there, but the wizard had evidently
expected him.
Here, my friend, is horse for you," he
said. Take it and lead it down the hill
into the town where the King and his daugh-
tiers live. In the rear of the castle is an old
oak tree; tie the animal to that tree and
leave it there until II o'clock at night But
when the clock strikes the midnight hour be
prepared to mount the horse and ride three
times around the castle walls. If YOU can
get around the castle three times before the
II chimes from the big clock of the castle

tower have been struck the young Princess
will be with you ready to fly with you to the
end of the world; but if YOU fail to get
around In time she will be lost to you for
yer and you will die, because your enemies
will be on your track"
The Prince promised to follow the in
structions of the wizard to the letter, and,
taking the horses bride, he hurried down
the hill. Everything was done as the in
habltant of the cave had said. He found
the oak tree, and tied the animal to one of
the branches. Then he went away until
midnight. As soon as the sound of the
first chime resounded from the midnight
hour he commenced his race. Never was
such riding seen before. The young man
spurred the horse into gait, the celerity of
which bid fair to rival lightning. But the
wall around the castle was long, and haste
was necessary. However, just as the echo
OF the twelfth stroke died awav in the dis
tance he arrived for the third time at the
old oak tree, and behold there the beauti
nj Princess stood awaiting him. She i'm
nediately jumped up behind him, and an
other race commenced even faster than the
one around the castle.
But just before the fugitives started of
window from the royal castle was opeped
and the ugly face of the other Princess ap-
peared.
"Hahah!" she mCttered through her
teeth, my beautiful sister wants to escape
with the young Prince; but hold on, my
two doves, you will not get very far" Then
she closed the window again.
The ugly Princess, however, was a yery
powerful witch, who had a whole army of
demons, monsters and goblIns at her COM
mand ready to do her bidding at mo-
ment's notice. After she closed the window
she went into the middle of her room, and,
with her right foot three times on
the floor, an awful monster with claws and
wings appeared before her.

Photographinz Colors.

While endeavoring to obtain Photographic
films, which should approach in sensibility
that of the human retina, it occurred to
M. NJ. G. Lippmann that some success
might be obtained by a rational and system
attic arrangement Of colored glasses. He
carried out thorough investigation of this
idea, and at recent meeting of the Acade-
mie des Sciences at Paris he gave an inter-
esting account Of his experiments. NJ. Lipp-
mann operates with an Attout-Tailfer plate.
Before the objective pieces OF colored glass
are successfully placed for a long enough
period for the various tinted rays to impress
an image on the film. The final result OF
this exposure is to give clear photograph,
which green foliage, yellow or red draperies,
etc., instead OF giving dark tints and blurred
outlines, are rendered with a delineation and
color value surprising the finest engraving.
Whatever may be the ultimate value of the
methods, they indicate
work in the right direction, and all similar
research will be welcomed as tending
toward the production of an instrument by
the assistance Of which the mysterious phe-
nomena of light may be more satisfactorily
investigated. The results of NJ Lippmann's
successive arrangement Of colored glasses,
surpass anything that have hitherto been
described, and they appear to herald the
dawn of new era in photography-espe-
cially In landscape photography.

THE BABY AND THE BUG.
The Former Got What He Wanted and Still
Wasn't Satisfied.

The Former Got What He Wanted and Still
Wasn't Satisfied.
A Boston journal says: "Among the
passengers on the St. Louis express yester-
day, was a woman very much over-dressed,
accompanied by bright-looking-nurse girl
and self-willed, tyrannical boy of about 8
years.
''The boy aroused the indignation of the
passengers by his continual shrieks and
kicks and screams, and his viciousness to-
ward his patient nurse. He tore her bon
net, scratched her hands, and finally spat in
her face, without q word of remonstrance
from the mother.
Whenever the nurse manifested any
frmness, the mother chided her sharply.
Finally the mother composed herself for a
nap, and about the time the boy had slapped
the nurse for the fifth time, a wasp came
sailing In and few on the window of the
nurses seat, The boy at once tried to catch
it.
''The nurse caught his hand and said
coaxingly:
Harry mustn't touch. Bug will bite
Harry
Harry screamed sayagely, and began to-
kick and pound the nurse.
The mother, without opening her eyes or
lifting her head, cried out sharply:
Why do you tease that child so, Mary?
Let him have what he wants at once.'
But ma am it's a.

and handsome men could be seen vending
their way toward the Kings castle. They
all came to pay their respects to the King
and his beautiful daughter, and everyone
was anxious to marry the lovely Princess,
put the King refused to allow her to be
married before her sister.
What does it matter" he would say,
whether the girl is ugly; she is Kings
daughter, and as good as the other even if
she is not quite so nice looking"
Thus 1t happened that all the anxious
lovers OF the beautiful Princess made their
Journey in vain, because none of them cared
10 have anything to do with the ugly sister.
Affairs had gone along in this manner TOR

Sea Water for street Watering.

This is the subject of g paper recently read
before the Civil and Mechanical Engineers
Society of England. Inquiries sent to 80
coast towns which had been using sea water
for this purpose showed that % towns had
abandoned its use for various reasons.
Ramsgate and Folkestone stated that it de-
stroyed all kinds of road material except
wood. Some towns advised its use in sewer
flushing in sufficient volume, but others
thought 1t produced gases when brought into
contact with the sewage. The testimony is
in favor of sea water preventing dust on
roads OF flint or gravel, and Berwick-on-
Tweed highly commends it for this purpose.
1t is there found that one cart OF sea water is
equal to two loads of fresh water in lasting
effect.
