A singular birthmark is to be seen on
negro woman employed near Athens, Ala,
on the Darlington plantation. Her left ear
is shaped like bunch of grapes, and pen
dant from the side of her head by fila
ment of flesh, presenting a most remark
able appc~v..,-. 4.cg hearing oA tndC size
is of course very defective, but otherwise
she suffers no Inconvenience from her pc
culiar mark, which, as negroes always do,
she attributes to witch's malice. When
in health the oblong balls of flesh which
represent the grapes are firm and plump,
but are shriveled by sickness.-Cor. Phila-

In the Roman Campagna, at the sepul
cher of Metella, the wife of Sulla, there is
an echo which repeats five times in five
different keys 1t will also repeat hexa
meter line, or any other sentence which
can be spoken in two and half seconds
An echo which repeats seventeen times
is to be found between Bingen and Cob
lentz, on the banks of the river Naha. A
popularity of this echo is that although
the speakers voice may be almost inau
dible yet the volume of sound apparently
Increases in the echo.
In the chapel of the Abercorn family at
Paisley the shutting of the door produces
an echo which sounds like distant thunder.
The echo of the Eagles Nest" at Kill
larney is said to repeat a bugle note at
least 100 times. The effect of firing can.
non is to give the impression of thunders
of artillery which die in the distance.
Between the two wings Of the castle OF
Simonetta, two miles out from Milan, the
report of a PISTOL is repeated sixty times.

Few people realize the Importance of
knowing how to swim. Swimming is
taught to the cadets at the Annapolis
Naval academy, but not to the West
Pointers, and the statistics of tbs late civil
war show how important it is that soldiers
should know how to swim During the
war the number OF men killed in action
was o., 0JS. while the number drowned was
1O6 officers and 4,S3S men, the majority
being drowned under such circumstances
that a few strokes would have been suf-
ficient to save life.
Some object to swimming on the ground
that it is productive of colds, that it may
cause heart failure, and that when in.
dulged in at the seashOre there is danger
from sharks. An expert claims that there
is little danger of taking cold. OF course
there are many weak people whose lungs
and heart are in such condition that they
should not venture to swim, but at the
same time the neglect to learn to swim in
early childhOod-the neglect of this emf,
nently hvgicnic exercises probably large
ly responsible for many fabby hearts and
weak lungs. swimming Is tonic and
braCing exercise. II assists in the develop
ment of the muscular system, and eXerts a
favorable influence on the bodily functions,
such as digestion, nutrition, respiration,
circulation and innovation. 1t is excel
lent for getting the body in what sporting
men call condition" Aside from the
physical advantages swimming gives moral
courage.-Forest, Stream and Farm.

II Cost. Money to Die In France.

After your demise your late residences
will be drapcd with black inside and out
by the authorities, and your relatives will
be permitted to have no control of any,
thing save onlya choice as to whether your
body shall be embalmed or not. For this
service $500 is charged. Ia this country
the cost of embalming is from S25 to $50
but over there they pretend to understand
processes approaching in effectiveness
those of the ancient Egyptians, No private
individual in France is permitted to en-
gage in the undertaking business. 1t is
the same way in Italy, where burial is also
a government monopoly, and in Russia al
the embalming is done by he government

When the spectators assembled in the
forenoon Curio was chaffed, no doubt, on
the issue of his attempt to excel Scaurus.
But the audience returned in the after
noon, for these entertainments were de-
voted to the names of Curio's father and
lasted month. In the place of two thea
tres back to back they found an amphi
theatre holding $4,000 persons, wherein
gladiators and wild beasts contended until
dewy eve. The two great buildings had
been swung round and united; and day by
day for the month following this colossal
trick was repeated.-St. James Gazette.

.-.smarck's strategy.

While the Germans were laying siege to
Paris about twenty years ago NJ. Theirs
came out of the city to consult with Bis
marck about the proposed capitulation.
OF course it was the Frenchman's duty to
present cheerful front and TO seek to con.
vey the impression that things were not in
so desperate Il condition in Paris as the be-
segers might suppose. On the other hand,
Bismarck was pretty well satisfied that the
besieged Parisians were being starved out,
but of course he intimated no such thing
in the presence of NJ. Theirs. But after
the conference Bismarck invited NJ. Theirs
to dinner, and the Frenchman only toe
gayly accepted the invitation.
Then it was that the willy German no
ticed that NJ. Theirs ate voraciously of the
vegetables and breads, rejected the canned
and picked foods, and partook with seem.
ing avidity of the fresh meat. This con.
firmed Bismark's suspicions-Paris was
starving. After NJ. Theirs went back into
the city there was found in the lavatory
adjoining the apartment assigned to him at
Bismarcks headquarters part of Paris
newspaper, and from certain items in this
bit of newspaper it was learned that the
condition of things in Paris was even more
desperate than had been supposed Eugene

SHE WON THE BET.
But 1t Was Unfortunate Work and She
Won't Do 1t Again.

Won't Do 1t Again.
Pretty Fanny Beale, lively Cincinnati
bud, is visiting her cousin Nellie in Piqua
Young Mr.. Filley, of St. Louis, and his
sister Nina are also visiting at the same
house. Barnum's circus was in Piqua and
young Mr.. Filley took the girls to see the
show. In discussing the show afterward
the young man expressed his particular
wonderment at the feats of female con-
tortionist. He was especially amazed at
the highly accomplished manner in which
she twisted her foot around the back of her
neck and made a cushion rest for her head
out of her heel. The warmth with which
Mr. Filley expressed his admiration of this
act of the contortionist seemed to nettle
Miss Beale trihe, and she turned up her
nose and said:
"Pshaw That isn't anything to brag
about. can do it MYSELF
Cousin Nellie and Miss Filley screamed,
and assured Miss Fanny that she was ayr.
full, and young Mr.. Filley laughed at her
and pooh poohed. But the spoiled beauty
Cincinnati sporting blood was up, and she
turned to Mr. Filley and said in decided
tones:
'rll just bet you the price of a box of
kid gloves that | CAM
Young Mr. Filley promptly took the bet.
Then the delicate question as to how Miss
Beale's ability to perform the acrobatic
feat could be proved to the satisfaction of
the young gentleman arose, and it was
finally settled that Cousin Nellie should
be- present while the act was on as referee
for Miss Beale, and that young Mr. Filley' S
ciS oh .lS ln in IN int Z
of her brother.
The three girls retired to Miss Beale's
room, and young Mr.. Filley waited on the
piazza for an official report of the result of
the feat. SpaSmOdic bursts Of mirth from
Miss Beale's room reached his ears for a
time, and then there was painful silence
for few seconds. This was finally broken
by screams of laughter, an exclamation of
wonder and loud clapping of hands in the
room.
"Blinked il l don't believe the little tar
tar has won it! said young Mr. Filley to
himself.
Another period f painful silence follow
ed the outburst of wonder and applause.
This was followed by scream or two not
prompted by mirthfulneSs or wonderment.
Suddenly Cousin Nellie burst from the
room and ran out shouting in alarmed
tones for her mother. Young Mr.. Filley
arose.
Has she done it, Nellie?" he asked
"Oh, Mr.. Fillcy"' Miss Nellie sobbed,
"she has done it, but she can't undo it
Please run for doctor"
Fortunately a physician of forty years
practice in the town lived only two squares
away Young Mr.. Filley called hia: in a
hurry He was good while in Miss
Beale's room, but when he left it he was
smiling. When Miss Beale came out an
hour or so later she was trifle lame, but
she announced triumphautly to young
Mr. Filley that she had won the bet The
official report of the referees unanimously
sustained the claim, and it was promptly
paid.
II used to do it easy when was at
school," said Miss Beale rehectively "All
the girls did. My heel never once stuck
