A Blind Bridal Couple.

Every pleasant evening, In that hour Just
before twilight which We all love to idle
away with inconsequential thoughts and OBJ
servations, there passes my window q couple
that greatly interests me. The lady Is but q
young girl, it seems, and she has such a pret-
ty face, 50 white and peaceful, with some
thing of sadness In 1t, something of joy.
She has great eyes that stare strangely at
you, and, at the sound of her companions
voice, their lids are dropped, and tho long,
graceful y elashes fall upon her cheeks. The
man reminds mo Of one of the old Saxons.
He is big and strong, and has the curly golden
hair and the big blonde beard of that race of
men. Bis companion hangs on his arm, and
yet he seems to depend upon her as much as
she ON him, for they cling very closely indeed
together, while be carefully picks their way
out wftha light cane.
Both are blind. Inquired about them the
other day. Neither ever saw the Light of day.
Neither can ever know how glorious the sum
light is, how prettily blend the beautiful hues
Of the flowers, how grand all nature looks.
Neither ever saw the otheri and yet they are
a bridal pair.
They only live In a world of darkness and
In each other. They met long ago, became
devotedly attached to each other and were
married And 30 now every evening, when
tho weather is fine, they go out for q little
stroll, and as they slowly, carefully walk post
my window 1 think: at Is q sad and yet
pretty sight-a blind bridal pairm-Toledo

After long and diligent search In q queer,
dark, second hand booth kept by n swarthy
Mongol, l WINS rewarded by the discovery of
n product of American genius that partly
satisfied my patriotism and served as n tangi-
bio proof that New England marks the time
to which all humanity keeps step. 1t WINS an
old second hand clock, mnde In Providence,
r. l., tho battered and somewhat grimy fnce
of which still bore In capital letters the
characteristic American legend, Thirty
Hour Joker" Mongolia might know nothing
Of American literature or Of American maga-
zines, but 1t had made tho acquaintance of
tho American clock; and although this par
ticular pieco of mechanism had lost its hands,
its Thirty Hour JOKER was q sufficiently
pointed allusion to the national characteristic
to satisfy the most ardent patriotism.
An American joker does not need hands to
point out tho merits of his jokes, and this mu-
tilated New England clock, with its empty
key hole eyes and its battered but still hu-
morous visage, seemed to leer at mo out of
the darkness of that queer old second hand
shop as If to say, "You mny come to Sfberia,
you may explore Mongolia, but you CAN'T got
away from tho American JOKER / was. a
little disappointed not to find In this bazaar
some representative masterpiece OF American
literature, but l was moro than satisfied a

Edlaon's Lahorafnry.

Among the materials stored In Edison's
laboratory arc samples of every substance In
the world; the thousands of pigeon holes and
drawers contain skins, feathers and furs of
the whole animal creation, bones and tusks
of all sorts of creatures, minerals, barks,
grasses, drugs, fruits and gums in bewilder-
ing completeness. Some of the species are SO
rare that they are kept like diamonds, in little
Of the materials there collected prompted the
inqutry'
How can you ever want such things as
sharks' teeth or rhinoceros' hornT'
THAT shows that you don't know what
queer things electricians use" replied our
modern Virgil. During the progress of the
experience with tho incandescent electric
light, for instance, nearly everything one can
hin of was tried as a primary material
from which to form the delicate carbon fila
ment whose incandescence Is the source of the
light. Finally, as perhaps you know, shreds
of one particular variety of bamboo were
found to give the most gratifying results;
and there, by the way, you can sec O few
bales of the very reeds from which those
strips are cut. Again, the delicate needle,
which, affixed TO the under sideof the vibrnt-
ing diaphragm of the photograph, indents
the smooth, revolving surface of the waxen
cylinder, had to be formed of some material
possessing peculiar properties of elasticity
and rigidity. Scores of the most unlikely
substances, both organic and inorganic, nat
ural and artificial, were tried before the right
one was hit upon. And SO 1t goes with all
the details of electric appliances. n1Cosmo-

In 1913 Professor Espy was given n position
in tho war department, where he could pur-
suo his Investigations In atmospherical cur
rents and disturbances and receive reports
from distant points of observation. He in
st1tuted n service of daily weather reports.
out of which our present signal service system
hns grown; and on tho basis of this enter
prise, rs Mrs. Morchead relates In her book.
Professor Henry once remarked to her that
there WINS no question In his mind that PRO
fessor Espy should DO regarded as the father
Of the present signal service of the United
States, his Theory of Storms having led the
way to Its establishment and present success
Professor Horny added that the charts now
used In the service were Identical with some
notifications with those that tho "Old Storm
King constructed for use In the meteorologi-
cal bureau of tho war department when no
was at its head.
A similar acknowledgment was mnde to
Mrs Morehead by Gen. Myer. Professor
Espy wa for several years a regent of tho
Smithsonian institute, and was brought into
close relations and friendship with Professor
Henry. On the occasion of HIS death Profes-
scr Bacho pronounced his eulogy In the board
of regents, and tho regents passed tho custom
airy resolutions in honor Of his memory. One
of these resolutions describes him rs "onc of
tho most useful and Jealous of tho meteorolo-
gtsts cooperating with the institution, whose
labors In both tho Increase and diffusion of
knowledge of meteorology have merited the
highest honors of science at home, and have
added to tho reputation of our country
abroad-"-Popular Science Monthly.

Training Boys for oontortion.

What, then, is a contortionisti In the first
place it appears that q contortioaist is q per-
son who has preserved In his spine, and In
some cases In bis joints, the i~nfantile condi-
ton which In most persons Is merely tran
sient This implies q great ~hexibility of tho
spine in all directions, great powers of twist
ing it 1t Is also very likely that there arc
many small Individual peculinrities all favor
ing uncommon freedom Of motion If q
young boy without any Of this special fitness
should DO trained for contortion, l hin he
would probably meet with some success, but
never achieve distinction. So far as I am
aware, children are not educated for this
profession from their tenderest years, as they
are for several kinds of acrobatic perform
anoeS Their capacity makes itself known by
accident, from which 1t Is fair to infer that 1t
rests on an anatomical basis-Scribneris

GOLD WATCHES.
The Reason Why They Can BE Bought for
So Much Loss Than FormerIy.

The Reason why They Can BE Bought for
So Much Loss Than Formerly.
"Gold watches arc 50 common nowadays
that men don't take as much pride In wearing
them as they did q few years ago. said n
Fulton street jeweler the other day. 1.-THE
individual who could sport a gold watch and
chnin a dozen years g was considered a
person of wealth and property. But he isn't
now. Why, you viii find gold watches in tho
pockets of our street car conductors and l have
even known them to wear handsome diamond
ringA Did you ever notice tho ostentatious
manner in which a young man handles his
first gold watchf It is rather amusing.
Usually he carries It In a chamois leather
pouch, and is very careful not to breathe on
II or touch tho case with his flngers He con-
suits 1t every fifteen minute for the first
month, but be soon tires Of It, and then con-
siders 1t a horrible bore to be asked for tho
time III demand for gold watches was
never greater than IL Is today. Watch COM
panies are kept very busy filing orders, and
we retail jewellers do a good business In this
line.n
"Why "a it that watches are so much cheaper
now than a few years agoF'
well, for one thing, the watch movements
are n great deal cheaper. Gold Is just exnctly
the Same price per pennyweight The re-
ducton In price is confined to the movements.
The watch movements of the standard Amer
lean make arc very cheap. Those In common
use In gold witches OF the cheapest grade arc
from $40 to eco ench, and some of the best
movements are worth at wholesale sos or $50.
There is, however, n high priced, fine Ameri-
can movement which may cost you say S75,
but they are not put In ordinary cases. A
watch that you paid 800 for a few years g
you can get today for 2GO. and this AGO witch
viii hnve n $40 or S15 movement in it. For
$50 you should got a movement cased In solid
l+carat gold, Weighing from IS to 80 penny
weights II purchaser will get more service
out of a 14-carnt case than no will out of an
IS-carntH
How can dealers offer the public solid gold
watches for $50 and S35r
They aro not solid by my means. There
arc some unprinciplod makers who win mark
a case of 10 carnt outside and 8 carat In
sido IA carat, and n 10 end IA carat would
DO marked 10 carat. There is no Inv
In America to prevent this, The caso is
mado Of a composition which holds a gold
plating finely. This composition is some
times very heavily plated, and will wear
for several years without showing tho bose
metal There Is little difficulty In dlsposing
of them rs solid gold cases, md In this why
tho price is surprisingly low. There is moro
opportunity for deception In tho movement
and case of a witch thnn in almost any other
article Tho amount of money invested In q
witch offers much inducement to expert
mont Tho case manufacturer is not neces-
sarily Obliged to know much about the move
mont of n watch He makes his cases to fit
tho standard American sizes of movements,
md most makers produce u uniform size. ~"

STORIES OF DANIEL DREW.
The Innocent Little Package He Sent to n
wavering Legislator.

wavering Legislator.
The seats In the smoking compartments Of
the Lansing car the other morning were all
filed, and the air WINS odorous of cabbage
leaves and odoriferous of burning Havana
tobacco. Each smoker had some stories to
tell, and from the lot q few samples are
given below;
"My first experience said W. R. Bates,
twas in the New York legislature. 1 was a
boy then and / held a clerkship in the docu-
ment room. Those were the days when
Daniel Drew was one of the princes of the
state. One day Mr.. Drew came into the
room and said to mei
"Boy, can you writer
81 said 1 could.
"'Wen, / want you to I'LL out these passes
and he threw down a handful of the paste
boards, which / filed out according to his
List, while he slowly and laboriously put in
the signature that made them good. When
the work was done, 1 said;
"'Mr. Drew, You haven't got another of
those passes, have your

81 told him.
my secretary he continued, will be
here at noon and will bring you a pass
81 supposed that Mr.. Drew would forget
all about the matter, but he didn't. 1 got
the pass"
THAT reminds mo of a little experience 1
had with Mr.. Drew" said Capt. Joe Nichol-
son.
81 had q cargo consigned to him with or
ders not to deliver it without taking Mr..
Drew's personal receipt. When l went to
get the paper he stepped up to sign it and 1
asked him to have some one Identify him, as
1 had never seen him before, and l did not
know how big a man he was. He readily COM
piled, and then l applied for $500, as 1 had
authority to do, to buy supplies.
"'Certainly, certainly he said. But first
get some ono to identify you
in vain / suggested That he had just given
mo a receipt as the captain of tho vessel.
That wouldn't do, and you can believe 1t took
me some time to find a person who knew both
Daniel Drew and myself"
well, sir" began Mr.. Bates, promptly
taking up the thread of the discourse, 'fMr.
Drew came into the document room one day
and asked mo II there was a bright young lad
about 1 called a sharp little chap. Mr..
Drew pulled from his pocket a big roll of
bills. BE took a pieco Of tissue paper, such
as chewing tobacco was then rolled in. Then
he wrapped the roll of bills neatly and twist
ed the ends until the package looked exactly
like a roll of fine cut He gave 1t to the boy,
saying;
"'You know Representative Blanki CThe
boy said he didl Well, you go up pretty
near him and just as the man who Is now
speaking starts to sit down, you give this
fine cut to Representative Blank and tell him
Daniel Drew sent it,
1.-The boy obeyed his Instructions to the
letter. Representative Blank pocketed tho
package and when the honorable member
had finished Mr.. Blank arose and made a
learned and eloquent speech against the bill.
Mr.. Drew listened with satisfaction and then
gavet the boy $40 and told him to keep quiet.n
