A PrOfit able Hand Shaking.

1t was some years since. In the Ozark
region. where was riding circuit.
that saw a minister enjoy most sub
stantisl and-shaking. Shaking hands
was bis peculiarity. He believed in
the potency Of cordial grasp to win
men TO the church. And though sue
cessful in winning souls, he was unfor-
tunate in the matter Of getting dollars
In fact, poverty continually stared him
10 the face. He owned . little farm and
mortgaged it ss long As IL would yield
. dollar. The mortgages we're falling
due, but there was no prospect OF pay
ing them. But it did not bother him
. bit. He shook hands moro heartier
than ever. II have unbounded faith
in hand-shaking to bring everything
out right" he often said. until bis
penchant came to be the talk OF the
town. At las. came the day when the
mortgages must be foreclOsed that
would deprive him OF tho little home
that sheltered his family. On tho eve
OF that day knock at the door Of his
house. which was little way from
town, called him. When he opened
the door q whole crowd rushed in and.
without saying . word. commenced
shaking hands. He felt something
cold in the hand OF the first man, and
when the hand was withdrawn 1t stuck
TO his own. That 10 the most SUBJ
stantial shake l ever experienced" he
said. as he held up q Is gold piece.
But the next man stepped up and asil-
yer dOller was left in the preachers
palm. No one would say word in
explanation. but pressed in on him a.
fast as he could stick tho metal and
bills into his pockets. The house was
not large enough for the visitors,
each one OF whom deposited from 81
TO go in the outstretched hand. Eacn
left the moment his little errand was
accomplished. and not word could be
had in explanation. except the last
one, who. as he turned to 60. remark
ed: I'VE wanted TO play little joke
on you. and we have" The several
Jokes" netted just t7Sl. His home
was saved and = neat balance was left
besides. The minister maintained that
he had ontracted habit that night
that for q year afterward when he
shook . hand prompted him to look
into his own palm. half expecting TO
see piece OF metal there.-Rev. B.

Monster Spiders In India.

Far up in the mountains Of Ceylon
and India there IL q spider that spins
= web like bright yellow silk, the cen.
tral net of which is five feet IN
diameter. while the supporting lines.
or guys. as they are called, measure
ten or twelve feet long; and riding
quickly in the early morning you may
dash right into II, the stout threads
twining round your face like q lace
veil; while. az the creature who has
woven 1t takes up his position in the
middle, he gen orally catches you righ,
on the nose. and though he seldom
bites or stingA the contact Of his large
body and long legs is anything but
pleasant II you forget yourself and
try to catch him. bite he will, and,
though not vcnomous, his jaws are AZ
powerful as birds beak. and you are
not likely to forget the encounter.
The bodies OF these spiders are
gold or scarlet underneath, while the
upper part IL covered with the most
delicate slats-cOlOred fur. So strong
are the webs that birds the size Oi
larks are frequently caught therein.
and even the small but powerful scaiy
lizard falls victim. Often have sat
and watched the yellow or scarlet
monster, measuring. when waiting for
his prey with his legs stretched out.
fully six inches, striding across tho
middle Of the net. and noted the rapid
manner in which he winds his stout
threads around the unfortunate caD-
tive. He usually throws the coils
about the head, till the wretched VIC
tim 10 first blinded and then choked.
In many unfrequented dark hooks Of
the jungle you come across most per.
feet skeletons Of small birds, caught In
these terrible snares, the strong folds
which prevent the delicate bones from
falling to the ground after the wind
and weather have dispersed the fesh
and feathers. Rare Bits.

Playing . Joke on Q Doctor.

DR.. A. Ford told me a good story
. few days ago OF how friend of bis
had got the best OF two young men
who thought they could play practi-
cal joke on him:
my friend" said the doctor. sis
also a physician. and he advertised
very extensively that he could dag
nose physical ailments and prescribe
for them efficaciously by simply ex.
amining the hair Of the patient The
two young men above alluded to called
on him and handed him some hair. IL
was SO rough that the doctor came to
the conclusion that 1t belonged to .
horse instead Of . human being. They
remarked that the person who desired
to be treated was some miles out OF
town, and could not call personally.
Tie doctor decided not to allow them
to have the best Of the joke. aud he
scrawled out q prescription. The
young men asked him how much he
wanted and they were told t25. They
paid the money and left the Office with
their faces wreathed In smiles. A
nearby drugstore was visited, and the
prescription for the supposed distant
friend handed to the clerk to be filed.
As soon as he read it he began to laugh
aloud, and so did the young men.
When the clerk recovered himself he
told his two visitors they had better
take the prescription to feed store.
a. that was the only place where II
could be filled out They demanded
an explanation. and were told that the
prescription called for one bushel OF
oats. two quarts Of bran, four quarts
OF water. and that all was to be stirred
we'll and given three times . day. The
two young men stopped laughing and
left the store. much surprised at tho
result OF the joke they had attempted
to play. That goes to show how smart
physicians are when anyone tries 70
impose on them." concluded Dr.. Ford.

Crime and Punish ment.

IL am not sure but that We punish
too much," remarked w. Alexander
Johnson. secretary of the state board
Of charities, while talking TO reporter
about prison methods.
"Bishop Robertson. of Missouri. ip
. speech once described justice as like
. pair Of huge iron jaws that opened
and closed with mechanical regularity.
Nearly every man at some time In bic
life does something that brings him
within reach of those jaws; but IL hap.
pens with many that Il 10 not when
they are opening and closing. while
others less fortunate, but no more
guilty. are caught He illustrated the
inequalities Of Justice by . parable.
taking two boys who were truants, and
went to farmers orcbsTd TO steal
apples. One of the boys was caught,
while the other ran away and escaped.
The one who was caught was turned
over TO constable and was placed In
Jail. where he was thrown among
criminals long enough to fall under
the influence OF his evil associations
When released he was much worse
than when arrested, and he got deeper
and deeper into crime. The other boy,
with whom he had gone out to steal
apples, remained ia school. was looked
upon a. respectable, acquired an edu.
cation. became . lawyer, and finally
became judge.
twenty-five years after the apple
stealing the boy who ran and escaped
punishment was the judge who sem
fenced TO death the boy who had been
caught, and whose punishment had
started him In career OF crime."--
