Morbid Craving After sympathy.

Curious instances are related of this
peculiar attitude of mind. A young lady
once waited upon surgeon for treatment
of wound upon the arm. He gave her a
lotion and an ointment, neither of which
had any beneficial effect The origin and
the obstinacy of an apparently trifiing
injury puzz led the doctor. At last he had
the curiosity 10 take piece of the black
matter that covered the wound and sub
NIT it to analysis. To his establishment
he found 1t nothing more than licorice
or Spanish juice. Once upon the right
scent, he made inquiries tuat confirmed
his theory, and was soon able TO inform
the mother that her daughter made the
wound by scratching the skin deep enough
TO draw blood and then rubbing in Span
ish juice. The lady, naturally indignant
that her child should seem an impostor.
wrote the surgeon down fool, and con
suited n specialist. She came soon after
ward to apologize to the local practition-
er, and to await with patience the result
Of firm course of treatment, which
removed her daughters craving for sym
patty, and with it any reapp earanee OF
the self-inficted wound.

SOME years ago one of the prese nj
Congressman from New York State and
his brother were exam ming the stock OF
a pawnshop in London in tine hope OF
picking up some curiositie7. They came
across a necklace Of green glass beads,
which the New York man purchased foi
$3.50, intending to bring it home to his
little daughter. The brother was sur
prised to fiOd in the shop the counterpart
of tho necklace, which he brought home
10 his little girl. Two months later the
latter showed her gift to jeweler, who
pronounced the glass beads to be emer-
aids, and who sold them afterward for
several thoGsand dollars. The member
of Congress, upon hearing this, took his
necklace to the same dealer, who pro-
nounced it &c be composed of glass beads.
The London awn-dealer had purchased
them of thief who had stolen them
from a wealthy woman. The latter kept
the emerailss in a safe and wore their
glsss counteIparts. OF coarse no one
could tell the difference when the neck
lace encirclot her throat.

What Becames OF the God.

II was gIewsome suggestion that n
Filbert street dealer in old gold and sill
yer made In chat with a customer at
his store yesterday. They were talking
about the average yearly disaDpearances
of the precious metals, and the Gus tome r
confessed that he could not understand
why the percentage of the loss should be
so large. Maybe, insinuated the dealer,
'yog have never counted up the total of
the oliver and gold that are pat away in
the cemeteries. Take, for liz stance, the
40, 600 interments in Laurel Hill. l
judge that at the lowest estimate 50 900
of those corpses had had their teeth
filled with gold at cost of SIS each.
There is Sl5O, 600 accounted for and we
may say that another thousand nf the in
habitants OF the city of the dead had paid
to their dentists 81 or SO each for silver
hllings. There is several thousand dol
lars more TO be added TO the account. This
Is merely an estimate for one cemeteryin
the city. Multiplying it by the recog-
nized places of interment in all the
Christian counties, aud add Go it the
calculation as to the gold and silver Or
n ments that are buried with the men and
women who wore them In their lines, the
total will amount TO millions, and will
convince you that We are putting in the
ground almost as large a quantity O6 rahe
precious metals as we are taking from
1t. "-PhilddeiphtG IRQuirer.

Monkey Stoves.

Keeper Ravens, of the Zoo, crawled on
to the Fair street dummy with two big
gray two-gallon jugs in his hands yester-
day.
Going to start blind tiger?" he was
asked.
No; these are monkey stoves"
"Monkey-what?"
"Stoves, man, stoves. Don't you catch
on? Everybody has been =ondering how
/ would keep the MONKEYS from freezing
during the winter. These are my stoves.
I'll just fill these two jugs full of hot
water, wrap some hay around them, and
set them in the monkey cage"
will the monkeys take to them?"
Trust a monkey for that. They'll sit
around those jugs and hug them worse
than a tramp around a caboose stove.
Next morning when l so in there they
will be as warm aud as snug as you ever
saw. Talk to me about keeping animals
from freezingl Why, give the monkeys
warm milk and tea, and put the jugs in
there, and they are as happy as kittens.

What Is COrtlOYan ,

But very few people who wear Cordo-
van shoes have any idea where the leather
bearing that name comes from, hence the
question is often asked, What is Cordo-
yan?"
"Cordovan. the name by which leather
made from the hides of horses is now
known, was first finished in Hamburg,
Germany, under the name of Ross

The popularity of the horsehide is tn at
part known as the Shell" o formation
found only in the eQuidal family, con-
sisting Of the horse, ass zebra, gnu and
quagga. This shell is muscle in fat
sheet spread over the horses rump be-
tween the hips and tail, extending down
TO the legs, making piece of oval form
about two feet long and one and & half
feet wide it the widest part. This muscle
grows firmly to the groin. Below il is q
hannel-like tissue.
In combination with il the hide has
four layers of muscular skins which, with
the shell, give 90 the horse the great
and tremendous pulling power that make S
the animal SO serviceable TO mankind
This shell" if properly tanned and
shaver clean of its sinewy matter--a
most difficult task-makes the best wear

theory of old-time shoemakers - that
only leather of long fiber will wear-to

Seven ladies and eleven gentlemen
~ere landed from q Pullman palace-car
IN Cincinnati few mornings since with
out shoes to their feet, and this is how
1t happened: On the Pennsylvania west :
bound express out Of Pittsburgh IN the
evening there was an unusually heavy
travel from New York, and at Pittsburgh
ii was necessary to attach an extra sleep
or. The porter selected for the run was
an Eastern route man, and he discovered
soon after the train left the depot that an
old friend of his was running on one OF
the regular cars ahead. The darkies met,
exchanged salutations, and agreed, after
getting all their people to bed that il would
be n good scheme to polish the passen-
gers shoes together in the forward car,
and spend the balance of the night in a
social chat, with intervals devoted TO liba-
tion from pocket flask.
The porter of the extra gathered his
peoples shoes together in a pillow-case
three Partisan petite pairs owned by
Young ladies of Cincinnati en- route home
from Europe, four pairs OF matronly
CATERS. and eleven heavier pairs of vari-
Gus styles and sizes belonging to the men
in the car. He took them forward to his
chum's car. each shoe carefully chalked
with the number OF the berth, and the
two guardians of the slumbering passen-
gers had n gent time together, so pleas
ant time, in fact, that it was nearly day.
break when il occurred to the potter OF
the extra that it would be we'll TO take up
his peoples shoes and get back to his
own car.
He went back, but his car had vanished!
To say that he turned white with aston
ishment would be no exaggeration. The
Cincinnati car had been switched at Co.
lumbus, and the Cincinnati passengers
shoes were spinning along at fifty
miles an hour toward Indianapolis, on
the st. Louis section of the Vandalia
express. The porter felt the gravity Of
the situation, so far as he was concerned,
and at the next stopping station he dis
appeared rapidly toward the East with a
a pillowcase full of shoes over his
shoulder. The passengers did not dis
cover their loss until the reakfast hour.
and the comical surprise can be better
imagined than described. They reached
their homes in carriages with slightly
Soiled hosiery. Philadelphia Record.
