is heavier per bushel than dent corn,

turning to consciousness, he often
INDUCES in absurd remarks.

lady, opening her eyes after some time
spent in a dentists chair, $50 | can't

Another, sober matron. was so de-
lighted on returning to consciousness
at seeing the kindly face of her phys

been floating off into space. that she
exclaimed excltedly, 80, doctor, love
you!'
Eyes, yes, know it." he replied
sOothingly, and she has since declared
that she was so angry with him for
under estimating the Importance Of
her statements that she kept on wildly
insisting, 'tBut you don't understand:

One young girl, compelled TO go
through a painful surgical operation,
began laughing immoderately as soon
as the ether affected her. After her
recovery, she was asked to recall the
cause Of her mirth, and in doing so she
laughed as heartily again.

ether, in common with hashish and
opium, has the power of investing the
simplest objects and imaginings with
some absurd characteristics.
a gentleman who had inhaled esher
for the purpose Of having his teeth ex-
tracted, says there was some delay In
the course Of the operation, and when
the last teeth were pulled he had De-

The Oldest Timber.

Probably the Oldest timber in the
world, which has been subjected to the
use of man, is that found in the ancient
temple of Egypt in connection with
stonework, which is known to be at
least 1900 years old. This, the only
wood used in the construction of the
temple, is in the form of ties, holding
the end of one stone to another. When
two blocks were laid in place an exca-
walton about an inch deep was made in
each block, in which tie shaped like
an hourglass was driven. 1t is, there
fore, very difficult to force any stone
from its position. The ties appear to
have been of the timarisk or Shittim
wood. of which the ark was construct

A HONEYMOoNING PROFESSOR
1t was In Waukesha last summer that
d Chicago woman became acquainted
with distinguished professor from the
East. He was man Of grave and dig
nifed demeanor, and inspired the
somewhat flippant Chicago woman
with no little awe. With the professor
was his young wife,a particularly quiet
young woman. who seldom spoke. The
Chicago woman, being left alone with
them. undertook TO furnish the chat.

last night" said she, latter every one
had left, and chanced to overhear a
scrap of conversation from one of the
windows. I don't suppose serious
gentleman like yourself, Professor, will

floating out were those OF man and
