Victoria Morosini's Husband in Clover.

NOW fOrk Special.
Ernest Schilling, husband of Victoria
Morosini, has just been discovered in
Astoria. He has concealed his identity from
his neighbors, who know him only as John
Wilson. Altogether. Mr.. Schilling seems
to be much better off han when Mrs.
Notwithstanding was making him notori-
Gus. He earns good wages as a house
painter, he says, and is a member of several
yachting, hunting and fishing clubs. He
owns a house and a catboat, whereas he
owned nothing at all when his wife was
with him. He thinks Mrs. Schilling loves
him still. though he is rather anxious to
know who has supported her since she
abandoned him, three years ago. Mr..
Schilling is sure he can lick the man who
says that he ~relinquished Mrs. Schilling for
$1,000 of banker Morosini's money.

How Much a Frog Knows.
From Forest and Stream.

Toads, in the presence of snakes,
usually remain perfectly still. In
this is their only safety, for did they
make the least movement they
would Immediately be caught. /
have known a hungry snake lie wait
ing over an hour for a frog to move,
and even push with the nose to stir
him up. This has been called 'snake
charming and indeed it looks likeit,
but the toad is the charm er, the
snake the charmee.
remember one day 1 dropped a
toad in the midst of a pit of snakes
1 had in my back yard. He at once
became perfectly still, though sur
rounded by more than a dozen hun
CRY snakes. There was a circle of
fierce heads and glaring eyes around
him, and he would, not move. The
circle narrowed until the p%rotruding
tongue almost touched him, yet he
was immovable. just then [ was
called away for over an half hour,
but on returning found the toad in
grave dignity, still holding the fort
by most mastery inactivity. This
lowly helpless creature. strong only
by adherence to a natural faith, thus
battling enemies numerous and pow
erful, brought Daniel before the men,
tai vision, more wildly than Riviere's
celebrated picture.

How to Choose.

A clever woman was recently asked
who should be made president of a GER
tain association of which great things
were expected. II can not name her,
she said, ''but choose someone with a
big nos and a big mouth" There may
be no suggestion worth a row Of pins i'll
this, but none the less it is true that
many of the ruling men and women of
power have large features. This is spe-
cially so in the literary world. At q lit
erary gathering anywhere big noses or
big mouths, or both, will be noticeable.
The same traits are observable ut a spir-
itual seance. At the council of women
in Washington the noses of the women
were in the aggregate monumental. 1t
is the same at a meeting of Sorosis.
Miss Frances Willard has a big nose
and q good sized mouth. Mrs. Julia
Ward Howe has a big mouth, but very
fine and sympathetic. George Eliots
nose lacked nothing in size. 1t really
looks as if the big-nosed, wide-mouthed
people had the best of it in life, at least
from the public point of view.

every household in the land.
Sickness is one of the legacies OF life,
and yet every i'll that flesh is heir to has
an antidote in the laboratory of nature.
Hon. III. Fl. Warner, of Rochester, N.
Y, president of the chamber Of COM
merce of that city, was a few years ago
stricken with kidney disease, which the
physicians declared incurable. In this
extremity, a friend recommended to
him n vegetable preparation now known
throughout the civilized world as War
ner's Safe Cure. He tried it, and was
quickly restored to perfect health. The
incident led him to begin the manufac-
ture of the wonderful preparation, and
TO make its merits known in all tongues
and among all peoples.
He has now laboratories and ware
houses in the United States not only,
but in Canada, England, Germany, Aus
tria, Australia and Burmah. His prep
nrations meet the requirements and eff
feet the cure of a variety of diseases,
and are all compounded from medicinal
plants of the highest virtue.
Mr.. Warner is n man of affairs, of
wealth, culture and the highest stand
ing in his own city and throughout the
state. His character is the best gunran-
tee of the purity and excellence of his
renowned remedies, which may he found
in every first class drug store of Europe
and America.

A man who shaves three times q week
says he is convinced that the hair grows
on his face faster in bright weather than

ing between my visits to the barber"
said he yesterday, 'tare full of sunshine,

growth of whiskers than when the two
days are rainy and the sun is hid. After
convincing myself that the sun had q
very material effect upon the growth of
hair 1 determined to ask the barber
about it. why, certainly said he, the
sun has the same effect on your hair on
your head or face that it has on the
plants. While, of course, the growth
does not stop when the sun is behind the
clouds, yet the sun hurries it up won
derfully. Hair grows nearly twice as
fast in sunshine as when it rains. ~

An old gentleman of Glens Falls,
who is popular among the boys, and
by virtue of his intimate relation
with them often proffers advice, one
day a across a couple of lads
who were smoking claypipes.
swell, well, boys" said he, with an
impressive sigh and solemn manner,
intended to make the boys feel the
seriousness of the occasion. 81 am
seventy years old and have never
smoked a pipe in my life"
"Well, it's your own fault replied
one of the pair.
The old man was SO dreadfullytaken
ahaek that he couldn't say another
word, and lelt the pair to- enjoy their
smoke without hearing his intended
homily. He tells the joke himself
with evident enjoyment.

yIetorIn,s Hoop skirt.

The following anecdote is told to
illustrate the readiness with which Par
isian fashions are adopted, ven by the
most rigidly patriotic of princesses.
At the epoch of the arrival of Queen
Victoria in Paris in 1856, on a visit to the
emperor and empress, the latter had
just brought hooped skirts into vogue.
The queen forthwith sent off q messen-
ger to purchase one for her, and on the
next approach before her imperial host
and hostess her skirts were expanded
into the new and fashionable amplitude.
But her majesty had not comprehended
the necessary method of tying the tapes
that held the hoops in place, and, contin-
ues the Philadelphia Chronicle cores
pendent, her crinoline presented an ex-
traordinary and shapeless aspect. 1t
was the emperor himself who, with his
own imperial hand, set the rebellious
peticoat to rights, and gave to his royal
guest a lesson as to the proper method
of donning the new fashioned adjunct
of feminine costume.
