FRENCH TIN SOLDIERS.
Tho Snrdine Box Rivals of the Nuremberg
 Toy Hordes.

Nuremberg mobiliZcS whole regl- ment of soldiers, baggage and artillery (Krupp mode), included, at tho same price for which a battalion of t:,:sseurs d dAfriuue is set on foot by the toy ar senal of Marais. The situation IS gloomy; the French toy retircs from ev- cry position. But France will mover De annihilated. And if the depths of the French tin soldiers soul were to be sounded, there would be found below the control which discipline exacts the same glorious dreams of revenge which animated the volunteers raised by Gam betta from the earth. The French tin soldier looks to the east; he knows that he is powerlcss to stop the invasion or the German toy hordes-he is bound by art. in the Frankfor treaty of peace and he bides his time. But vengeance is at hand, and this time also the first signal for raising has been given at Belleville by Gambetta of the toy | world. Some years ago an idea suggested itself to an obscure | workman of Belleville, an idea that | since then has engendcred an army, | amply qualified, were it question of number alone, to realize the dream of eternal peace, by keeping in check the assembled armies of Europe. He sets l on foot 5, 900, 900 soldiers a year. Th csc soldiers are of humble origin, but so was Napoleon. They sprung from old sardine boxes. Relegated to the dust hole, the sardine box is preserved from l destruction by the dust man, wlAo sells | it to a rag merchant in Belleville or in l Buttes Claumont, who in his turn dis poses of it to specialist, by whom it is l then prepared for the manufacturers. The warriors are made from the bottom l of the box, the lid and sides are used
 for guns, railway carriages. bicycles,
 etc., etc. All this may seem unimportant at first sight, but the utilization of these
 old sardine boxes has resulted in the
 foundation of an enormols manu factory,
 at which no less than 200 workmen are
 employed. I went there the other day,
 and no one suspected me of being a
 political correspondent, I was admitted
 without difficulty to view the great
 arsenal and its 5000, 900 warriors.
 The poor workman, out of whose head
 the armed tin soldier sprung-via the | sardine box-is now rich man, and,
 what is more, an eager and keen-sighted
 patriot who. in his sphere. deserves the
 gratitude of his country. After retreat
 ing for years, the French tin soldier
 takes the offensive again-every veal
 the German spiked helmets retire from
 positions conquered in French nurser
 ies, and tho time is not far distant whcr
 the tri-color shall wave over the Berlir
 toy shops-a slight revenge en attend
 ant the at.-Blackwood's Magazine

Strangely Changed by Time.

It Is rare source of interest to the collegiate of a retrospective mind to sit down some evening before a glowing fire and through the wreaths of smoke from the curling pipe recall the old classmates as they were and as they are now. The brightest boy iii my class, one whose future any one would have discounted on leading to fame and for tune, is to-day dying in hospital, g hopeless, mental and physical wreck, and has for years been a reproach to his family. The dullest, sleepiest, all together the most unpromising one of the lot, whom we picked out for a career as a teamster, is one of the leading architects of the country. Our best Latin and Greek scholar is to-day pork. packer. The most pious boy of our crew, who seemed destined for church, is successful actor. One whom know very well, was intended for Q lawyer, and is now quarryman and con- | tractor. Another, who could not address | ten words to the class, without stan. mering in confusion, is one of the most eloquent of our public men. And so il runs-the twig gives but slight indica tions of the tree.-St. Louis Globe | Democrat.

LUNAR INFLUENCE.
Curious Expectations as to the Potency of
 the Moon.

Curious Superstitions to the Potency of
 the Moon.
 The potency of lunar influence in worldly matters was at one time almost universally acknowledged, and even now many of the errors and superstl- tions connected with the moon still hold their ground among the rustic popula- tion of the country. Not only is the restless ocean governed by the palo lu- minary of night, but a kind of tidal ar- rangement was supposed to exist in tho bodies of animals, their marrow and brains fluctuating with the increase and waning of the moon. It is popular be- lief that the rays of tho latter. falling upon a sleeping person, cause his face to become distorted, and, as somo aver, even deprive him of his senscS-in fact, lunatics were so named from their sup posed susceptibility to lunar influence, and ''moonstruclk" is a common term for | a state of mental alteration bordering | on i'm mbecility.
 Tho phases of the mooh are supposed | to exert marked influence over tho | growth of mushrooms, and formerly, in l order that their flesh might not waste | in the cooking. the best time for killing l pigs was considered to be when the moon was on the increase or near the | full. One sometimes meets with the superstition that when the moon comes in and goes out on Sunday seed plant ed during that month will not grow Hair, it is said, should be cut at the new moon, otherwise it is liable to fall off corns, on the other hand, should be cut during the waning of the moon in order that they may gradually diminish and ultimately disappear.
 It is customary with country people to bow or curtsy with the new moon and by some it is also supposed that wish made at such time will be grati fed. It is held, too, that the money il ones pocket should be turned for luck To see the new moon through glass however, is considered unlucky. Whel the moon is on it's back-that is to say with the horns of the crescent pointlnI upward-it is thought by some to indi cate frost. Sharp horns of the ne1 moon are supposed to presage wind, an when the outline of the entire plane can be traced it was, in Scotland, look cd upon as a sign of bad weather.-Lon don Graphic.

THE SULTAN'S POSITION.
Like That of Other Oriental Rulers It Is
 Decidedly Unsafe.

His Majesty, the ruler, leads by no means happy life, notwithstanding his income of SIC, ,000, 900 a year, and that he has his wives by the score. His prede- cessors lived in Q great palace on the banks of the Golden Horn, or rather of the Bosphorus at the point where the Horn commences In front of this pal ace stands the yacht of the Sultan, and there is usually gunboat or two sta tioned near by to guard 1t. The las t Sultan woke ono morning to find the guns of these ships sighted on tho pal ace, and Q set of Turkish rebels de- manded his surrender. The present Sultan has palace away back on the hills The grounds which surround 1t contain many acres, and there are watch towers built here and there among them. In these guards arc stationed, who keep the landscape ever before their eyes, and who would at the least hostile demonstration inform His Ma iesty. He has thousands of soldiers con nected with his own body-guard, but he trusts very few, and like one of the former Sultans, he places implicit con- fdence only in his mother. He has had a number of revolutions during his reign, and if you look over the history of Turkey you will find that assassi- nation is a very common fate for Sul- tan. Isaw the Turkish monarch several times while I was in Constantinople. He is a sallow, nervous little man, with a Roman nose, with a pair of bright, black eyes, which sparkle as they look out under his red fez cap. He wears a suit of black clothes, much like those of a preacher, and his coat is buttoned high at the throat. He does not look like healthy man, and there is more timidity than braggadocio about his bearing. It is said at Constantinople that he dares not move about unattended through the streets of the Turkish quarter, and his home is on the European side of the water. When he takes ride through his capital the whole army at Constantinople turns out to guard him. Yellow sand is sprinkled over the road in order that his royal bones be not jolted, and he has a couple of the most noted of his Generals in the carriage with him. l am told that he is really fond of his subjects, notwithstand ing the dangers of his situation, ant that he would do much for the betterinl of his kingdom if it were not for th' plots and plotters which continually sur round him. His situation is practical, the same as that of the other Asiati' monarchs of the courts which visited
 Not one of them felt secure and saf, upon his throne, and all of the countries of Asia have their political factions ant their political. intlisues.-F. G. CaRpen ter, in National Tribune

WHERE MAN ThRlvES.
A Maryland Town in Which Nearly All Aro
 Giants and Methusclahs.

A Maryland Town In WhlCn NeAEAy All AkO
 Giants and Methusclahs.
 "Back in Montgomery County, eleven miles from Laurel, on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, is the little village of Sandy Spring, a Quaker settlement, whose population is but seventy-five persons, yet which is noted for the length of time it's inhat itants live and the stature they attain" said Robert h. Moran day or two ago.
 ''Now, I am not what you would call little or young man. l am " years old, six feet tall and weigh 200 pounds, yet can not hold a candle to some Of the chaps who live there. The old people there are dying off, though. Now, there was the Penn family. Mary lived to be 1O9 years old. Edward died at 1O4. Lizzie was 1O3 when she died, and Joseph was 1O1. Joshua lived to be go and 10 months. Mary No. was 9s, and another Mary was S9. Will jam Thompson was one of the oldest men in town. He died at 113 years. The Bell boys were triplets. They were Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Every one of them was over 100 years old and the smallest of them was feet inches high. Both the others were feet 5. Then there were two men, one named Davis and the other Thatcher, both of whom were over | 100. Isaac Moore lived to be 1O2. Mrs. Russell died at 1O4. Mrs. Kirk was 101. Billy Matthews and Will Mccormick were each 1O1 when they died. Billy Simpson was 100, and Mahlon Chandice is now living at 100. Cornelius Sullivan was 94, William Brown was 92 when he left us, and Jimmy Whiteside is still liv- | ing, hale and hearty, at 96. Now there is a raft of men over 80 years. Among those who are dead are William Thomp- son, Randall Thompson and Joe Thomp- son, Joshua Lewis, Ephraim Murphy, Henry Stabler and Edward Stabler. Caleb Stabler, Richard Tucker, Perry Lizear, and Jeff Higgins are still living. There is such a raft of boys over so that it isn't worth while to mention them.
 "Now for the big fellows: Ed Penn was 6 feet 4, and Josh was feet ?. Robert Sullivan was 6 feet 5. He had two sons, Will and George, who were
 feet and 6 feet 3 respectively. Mahlon and Nelson were brothers, and each was 5 feet inches high. There was Richard
 Sullivan, whom we used to call Long
 Dick He was 6 feet 4. He had two
 sons, Ed and Perry, who are still living both feet ?. Dr. Artemas Riggs was g daisy. He was 6 feet inches tall weighing 26O pounds, without an ounce of superfluous flesh, and was one of the , best men in the county. There were three men who were named William Brown, and we had to nickname then to distinguish them. There was Big Bill Brown, 6 feet 3. Long Bill Brown was
 feet 5, and Little Bill Brown was fee
 2k. Isaac Moore was feet ?, but hi:
 son Nathan went him one better ant was 6 feet 8. Perry Lizear is still liv ing. He is over 80 years old, is fee :. ? in his stockings, weighs 220 pounds V is straight as an arrow, and one of tn best men in the county. Itell you what <, if you have any children and want then ! to live long and grow big, just send then '. to Sandy Springs. ."-Baltimore Sun.
