Wanted to Arrest St. Paul.

There is a Greek benevolent society in
Constantinople which recently had oc-
casion to publish a pamphlet on its work,
and on the title page there was put a
quotation from Paul's epistle to the Gala
tians. Very soon after it appeared a po-
lice officer came to the printing office
and demanded of the editor that he
should give him information as to who
this Paul was who had been writing let
tiers to the people of Galata Zone of the
suburbs of Constantinople), as he had or
ders to get a copy Of these letters and to
bring the aforesaid Paul to headquarters.
The editor explained that Paul could not
be broughtto headquarters; he was dead.
But tho functionary retorted that his
orders were to bring Paul, and if he
could not bring Paul to bring the editor.
II was of no use to protest that Paul had
been in heaven for eighteen hundred
years; and the editor was taken to head
quarters and put in prison for several
days, until finally tho Greek patriarch
interfered and presented the bureau Of
censorship with a copy of the letter of
Paul, which he showed was addressed
not to the people of Galata, but to a
province of tho ancient Roman empire.
This having been at last made clear, the
editor was released.-San Francisco Ar
rOnaut.

Chcap Morning Dre,scs.

There are innumerable ways of getting
q morning dress for almost nothing.
Take for instance Il wardrobe Of ten
or twelve dresses out of which there
may be but two that are la mode. With
a skirt the toilet is half complete. It
may be bright and light, plain or lavish
ly trimmed, but so long as it is neat it
will be pretty. If there is no available
waist a blouse of silk, flannel or cam
brio can be bought at from 80 cents to
S., or fashioned at home for half the
money.
A wide awake lady in West Twenty
sixth street, who has pupils as well as
small children to care for, wears a cast
off brown silk skirt shorn Of its former
glory and q boys shirt waist of sprigged
muslin, belted in at the waist. These
waists cost her 80 cents each, but before
wearing she is obliged to buy material
and make new sleeves.
Instead of looking queer, as you may
imagine, she looks neat, fresh and pref
ty, for the waist is well starched and at
her throat she wears a sailor knot of soft
silk.-New York World.

Prompt Adhesion of Dcnta, Plates,

l.. G. Bryan gives m excellent plan for
securing immediate suction in q new
dental plate or q newly repaired one.
The plate is moistened, and then simply
sprinkled with fine powder of gum traga-
canth. Theplatei is then pressedinto place,
and nc matter how good or bad a fit, it will
hold firmly for a day under almost any
use OF abuse. The advantage of this is
apparent; for the first half hour after u
plate is put in makes Dr. mars the reputa-
ton of the dentist, for the timo being, in
the estimation of the patient, whose eff
forts to "suck up" a plate, if not im,nc-
diately successful, are at once discon-
tinued, and the plate pronounced a
misft.
1t is said that a thin coating of traga-
canth will even up all irregularities, pro-
venting the plate from wounding the
sensitive membrane Of the mouth, and
often leading to u satisfactory fit where
otherwise the plate could not be worn.
If the dentist is of opinion that time
and use will improve the general adapta-
ton of the plate it is recommended that
q small box of tragacanth should be pre-
sented to the patient with directions for
use whenever the variation in the Sue
ton of the plate from atmospheric causes
should render its employment necessary.

.DiSDat,cll.

Affected dispatch is one of the most
dangerous things to business that can be.
It is like that which the physicians call
predigestion, o: hasty digestion, which
is sure to fill the body full of crudities
and secret seeds of disease. Therefore
measure not dispatch by time of sitting,
but by the advancement of the business,
and as in races it is not the large stride
or high lift that makes the speed, so in
business the keeping close to the matter,
and not taking of it too much at once,
procures dispatch. It is the care of some
only to come off speedily for the time, or
to contlive some false periods of bust
ness, because they may seem men of dis
patch; but it is one thing to abbreviate
by contracting, another by cutting off,
and business so handled at several sit
tings or meetings grows commonly back
ward and forward in an unsteady man
ner. We knew a wise man that had for
a byword, when he saw men hasten to a
conclusion: "Stay a little, that we may
end the sooner."-New York Ledger.

FOREIGN Postare stamn.

"Are not postage stamps forged to a
great extent"
"There is not much of that sort of
business done in this country now. A
few years ago there was a big dealer in
New York who prosecuted a fraudulent
trade IN a large scale. He advertised
enormously and sold millions of forged
stamps, eve going SO far on one occasion
as to invent a certain foreign stamp in
order that it might be sold as a great
rarity. But the law against obtaining
money on false pretenses is applicable to
that sort of swindling and very little of
it goes on at present.
at is scarcely possible to deceive q
collector of experience with a forged
stamp. The first thing he examines is
the engraving. If that bears scrutiny,
he inspects the paper, then he looks at
the post cancellation, and finally at the
gum on the back. If no fault is found
with any of these particulars, the stamp
is surely good. The question as to
whether the paper is wove or laid and
how water marked is incidentally OBJ
served in connection with the record as
to date of issue ."-Washington Star.

Some Monster Hon,mer,.

Sightseers in st. Louis always take a
lively interest in tho monster trip ham,
mers used in the various large iron
works, which, although as large as any
thing of the kind to be found within the
limits Of the United States, are but pig
mics when compared with those used in
the great rolling mills and gun foundries
of Europe. At the Tcrni works in Italy
there is a hammer which weighs fifty
tons. 1t was cast in 1878. and is said to
have taken ninety days tocool sufficient
ly to admit Of being set in position.
Alexandrovski, Russia, has one ten tons
heavier that was cast i'll 1874. At the
Crenstot works in France there is one of
eighty tons. It was made in 1877 and
sets on an anvil block of 100 tons weight.
The Cockerill works in Belgium have a
100 ton hammer, and the Krupp Gun
works at Essen, Germany. have oneof $50
tons. The last named hammer is the
largest now usedint the world.-St. Louis

Rational Arcb,tectur..

Rational Architecture.
The very art element of architecture
has been tho cause Of its degradation.
From the most useful of arts it has be-
come mostly ornamental. From mean
ing and expressing the utility of an edi-
fec it has come to refer to its appear
ance only. People have forgotten that
it arose from the necessity Of man for
shelter, and view it as a product of
the study or of the studio in which
beauty and aesthetic effects are the only
ends sought, while utility, convenience,
expression of intention, have all become
secondary considerations. Nothing could
be more erroneous, nothing more fatal
to the production Of sound architecture.
Architecture is not the product Of the
Imagination, but the result Of experience
and foresight. The painter in his studio,
or the sculptor in his, has nothing to die
tate to his thoughts or force them into
certain channels. His fancy is free, and
lie allows it to carry him where it will.
The architect, on the other hand, is lin
tied by innumerable requirements and
difficulties, all Of which are real and
physical, and all of which must be over
come before his work can be q success.
His creations are not intended for the
decoration of a gallery or to be preserved
under glass. but they must stand the
test of time and Of climate, must bear a
relation to the manners and customs of
the day.-Barr Ferree in Popular Science
Monthly.

Do Athletics Paw?

Although q man may succeed in plaq.
ing new records to his credit for rum
ming, walking, jumping. etc.. and derive
a great deal Of pleasure in so doing, the
question naturally arises, Does it all pay?
What benefit is it to q man in after life
if he wa in his youth able to v a
short distance of ground in less time
than any Of his rivals? Does it do good
to any man if he can walk a mile in o
few seconds less than it has ever been
walked before? Athletes who have done
these things say that it does; that the
habits of training inculcated in their
early athletic days still stay by them,
and physically they are in better con-
dition than they would have been had
they not gained the habit of taking care
Of themselves. A strong man is always
at a greater advantage in the world than
is a weaker one, and is apt to keep mp
his carly training all through his life for
that reason if for no other. -Scribner's.

The British house of commons is per-
haps the most powerful organization Of
men in the world, but its great authority
and dignity did not prevent it from be-
ing thrown into some confusion on a re-
cent occasion, by a very small enemy.
One of the members, Sir John Gorst,
had taken the floor to address the house,
when it was perceived by a number Of
members that a mouse had taken the
Hoo at the same time, and was running
exactly in the direction of the spot occu-
pied by Sir John.
Certain of the members could not re-
frain from cries Of surprise at seeing the
mouse make this movement. The cries
frightened the mouse and caused him to
turn back and run towards the benches
occupied by the members.
This threw the front bench into some
confusion, which only frightened the
mouse the more. He attempted to take
refuge in the trousers leg of an honora-
BILE 'member, and this gentleman imme-
diately began a series of leaps and bounds
in an attempt to free himself from the
mouse.
In an instant the chamber was in con-
fusion. The mouse, escaping from the
honorable member with whom he had
taken refuge, ran this way and that.
Numbers of the members jumped upon
the benches which serve them as
seats. The Question before the house"
became, "How shall this little animal be
got rid of"
All at once the mouse found his way
to the hole in the floor through which he
had entered. He disappeared, members
got down from the seats, and Sir John
Gorst resumed his remarks.-Youth's
Companion.

The Cost of Stamp Albums.

collectors, some of which cost as much
as $50 and are very elaborate, though as

want a be had for $3.50, with printed
spaces in outline for the stamps, contain.
ing descriptions of the stamps to be put

of the albums are printed every three
years to provide for fresh issues.-Ex-

PAID THEM IN THEIR OWN COIN.
Newspaper Men Retaliato on bushes,
Men Who Had ICnorel Them.

Newspaper Men Retaliatc on Business
Men Who Had Ignored Them.
At the celebration Of the arrival of a
new German steamship the other day,
cards were sent to the leading shipping
firms and tho newspaper offices. A jolly
lot Of men, almost entirely Germans,
turned the affair into a great merry
making in which they ignored the news
paper men-o so nearly ignored them as
to be very rude indeed. After the coffee
was served speeches were made, all in
German. When there was nothing else
to do and nobody left to talk, a German
remarked that there were some newspa-
per men present and that although he
supposed not any of them had understood
what had been going on the rest would
like to hear from them.
In response to that invitation a cult
waited young gentleman representing one
Of the dailies arose and made an elo-
quent addressin pure and brilliant Span
ish. The Germans stared at him in
a1nazement and could not understand a
word he said. When he sat down there
arose a mild hammered, studious looking
reporter of another of the morning pa
pers who proceeded to deliver a speech
entirely in Latin. The Germans stared
still harder, and rudo and discourteous
as they had shown themselves it was
evident that they began to have qualms
Of conscience. When the second reporter
sat down q third one, q handsome gray
haired man, somewhat famous in gen.
eral literature, found his feet and pro-
ceeded to express some interesting senti-
ments in thepure and scholastic German
which he had learned at Heidelberg.
AS he finished and was about to sit
down he remarked to the merchants and
steamship men that it was a mistake for
them to think that he had not under
stood them during tho course of their
selfish monopoly of the occasion; that,
as a matter of fact, in spite of their de-
fective grammar and clumsy diction, he
thought he had understood every word
they had said.-Julian Ralph in Chat

Jerusalcm,s Early Existence.

Professor Sayce writes from Egypt to
the Academy to say that he has exam
ined once more the letters from southern
Palestine found at Tel Ell Amarana, and
has GOMEZ to the conclusion that the place
mentioned in one of the letters is Urusa-
lin, or Jerusalem, and thinks that the
city already existed under that name in
the fifteenth century before Christ, when
it was a garrison of the Egyptian king.

When Senator Stanford Was Poor.

Leland Stanford once told me that he
made $12 the first year that he practiced
law in Wisconsin. He had one of the
finest law libraries in the northwest and
was doing well, when a fire broke out
and ate up this and the thirteen mort
cages which then contained the bulk Of
his accumulations. The result was that
he was reduced to $500, and rather than
rebuild he decided to go to California.
He there became involved in business
and railroads, and instead of being a rich
Wisconsin lawyer he has become the
hundred millionaire United States SEN
ator.-Washington Letter.

Water Lilies as Food.

The water lilyis said to be largely used
in some parts Of India as q food stuff.
The fruit of n species that grows plen-
tifully in the lakes Of Cashmere is rich
in starch, and has much the flavor of a
chestnut. If the nuts are dried they will
keep a long time, and, when ground,
may be made into cakes or porridge, or
they may be soaked for some hours and
boiled. The seeds of the lotus are also
much used for dietary purposes in India.

plant twenty acres of ground in corn,
and, taking the sack which contained his
seed corn, went into the field, put his
corn planter into operation and pretty
soon had the required number of acres
planted, 30 he thought, with seed corn.
But upon finishing his job, what was his
consternation and amazement to find his
sack of corn untouched. He had simply
forgotten to put the corn in the planter,
and was forced to do his whole work
oyer again.-Lexington Mo.) Letter.

He walked tho world with Bonded he'd;
There Is no thing" he moaning said,
THAT must not some day join the dead"
He sat whero rolled q river deep;
A woman sat her down to weep;
child lay in her lap asleep 81
The waters touched the mothers hand.
His heart was touched. He passed from land,
But left 1t laughing in the sand
That one kind word, TINT ono good deed,
Was as II you should plant q seed
In sand along deaths sable brede.
And looking from the farther shore,
He raw, where le had sat before,
A light that grew; grew more and mora
He saw a growing, glowing throng
OF happy people, white and strong
With faith. and jubilant with song.
1t grew and grew, this little seed
OF good sown in that day Of need,
Until It touched the stars indeed!
And then the old mar smiling said,
With youthful heart and lifted head.
mo good deed ever joins tho dead"
