Charged for Knowing How.

81 paid a bill the other day." said
a large manufacturer to me, without
a murmur, simply because Of the way
it was worded. My engineer found
his hot water pump would not work
and after putteriDg at it for an houl
sent for a machinist. He bothered
with it half a day and concluded il
must come apart. was much annoy
ed, for that meant the stoppage of my
factory for a long time. Before
gave the order to take il to piece:
some one suggested that Il neighboring
engineer be sent for, as he was sort
of genius in the matter of machinery
He came and after studying the pump
a while he took the hammer and gave
three sharp raps over the valve. 81
reckon she'll go now" he quietly said
and putting on the steam she did go
The next day ! received a bill from
him for $3.50. The price amazed
me, but when | had examined the
items drew check at once. The
bill read this way: "Messrs. Blank q
Co., Dr.. to John Smith. For fixing
pump 80. For knowing how $50.
Had he charged me $3.50 for fixing
the pump should have considered il
exorbitant. But 90 cents was reason
able, and | recognized the value o.
knowledge, so | paid and said nothing

MISCELLANEOUS.
WHITE LILACS.

A year ago, year ago
She stood beneath the lilac'tree,
Her face with light and life aglow,
And pulled the branches down for me.
The blossoms showed against her hair
Like fairy feathers, crisp and whito
She looked so radiant and so fair,
with flashing smile and Chances bright.
Now here the lilacs bloom again;
They crown the tall and branching stem;
Fragrant and pure In sun and rain,
A stately, spotless diadem.
But where is she who stood below
And bent the white plumes down 10 met
All, mournful question Wall and voc
Come signing through the lilactree.
Those eyes are sweet and bright no more;
They closed ere spring had brcathod IT,
balm;
That living smile that flashed before
Is cold In deaths eternal calm.
And now above her greening grave,
with other flowers by mourners strewed
The lilac feathers softly wave,
And perfume all the solitude.
For life has gone and love has fed;
And yet the year comes round again,
Whatever futile tears are shed,
Whatever hearts are broke with pain.
There is no grief in flower or field;
No memory hath the lilac-tree
Nor hope nor help the roses yield,
Nor weeps the dew for loves that flee.
Yet these themselves shall one day die,
When the wide heavens together roll;
And all this beauteous earth and sky
Shall perish like a flaming scroll.
But she who bent the lilac bough,
Who sleeps today beneath the sod,
Shall live with glory on her brow
And greet me when 60 to Cod

Take Care There is Danger.

In allowing inactivity of the kidneys
to grow through neglect. The deadly
shoals OF Brights disease and diabetes
will wreck the goodly bark Of health If 1t
is allowed TO drift rudderless upon them.
The bladder, too, ifinactive, and iudicious
medication does not speedily direct the
helm toward the port of safety, will be
whelmed by the quicksand of disease. In
selecting a idiluretic, let your choice fall
upon Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. which
stimulates the renal organs without ir-
ritating and exciting them, two effects to
be apprehended from the Immediate
stimuli largely resorted to. These have
a tendency TO react prejudicially. The
Bitters invigoratc the kidneys and blad-
der, In common with the nerves and the
digestive organs, and so aiord lasting
aid. IL also affords duel assistance In
preventing and curing intermittent and
remittent fever. Bllliousness, constipa-
ton and rheumatism II also subjugates.

GORDON LOCATES EDEN.
How tho Famous General Was Wont
Explain HIS Pet Theory,

How tho Famous General Was Wont to
Explain HIS Pet Theory.
The General was very talkative one
evening, explaining to us his pet theory.
viz, that the Seychelles Islands, which
are situated to the northeast of NADIA
gascar, are the site of the Garden of
Eden. He gave many reasons for think
ing so, one being that there was tree
found there that Is not to be found in
any other part of the world. This, he is
confident, is the forbidden tree, It is
called the Coco-de-Mer, or nut of the
sea, and has many peculiarities. The
nut is shaped like heart but with its
husk taken off IL Is like a mans body
from the chest to the knees. To raise a
tree, he explained, a nut Is laid on tho
ground and covered with leaves. BY
and by shoot comes out and runs along
the ground. and when about IL feet long
IL takes root. The root Is in the form
OF bulb feet in diameter The tree
itself grows to the height of 100 feet,
and is only about . inches thick. 1t is
forty-seven years old before 1t bears
fruit and its nuts grow seven in bunch,
from the end of the extended arm, each
weighing perhaps forty pounds. They
take seven years to ripcn. The leaves
are "a feet long and IA feet broad, and
can bear mans weight 1t must indeed
be wonderful tree.
Many times during the voyage, in
conversation during the evening, Cor.
don would revert to this pet theory.
But though he would sometimes become
quite eloquent over the subject his ar
guments hardly persuaded the other oc-
cupants Of the cabin. The captain, q
sound-headed Scotsman, thinking to
himself that II the theory was correct
one. then Eve must have experienced
considerable difficulty in getting the
apple conveyed to her husband

Charmed the Snakes.

Paul Keister, an Everton, Cal,

In the Sonoma mountains. Keister's
services as violinist sometimes take
him to the country, where the old.
fashioned parties are given. On
Saturday evening he played at farm
house back of Yalupa mountain. He
slept at the farm house. The trail to
his home leads through deep canyon.
AT one point the path winds around
sharp and narrow spur of the mount
ain. Keister had reached this point
when his attention was attracted by
the warning clatter of rattlesnake.
When he saw formidable RATHER in
his path he took to his heels. A few
feet furthur along still another RATHER
rose before him. There was not suffi-
cient room to pass the snakes without
running the risk of being bitten and
the frightened musician backed
against the edge and eyed the advance
ing rattlesnake. IL occurred to him
that in India magicians charm such
things with music, and pulling out
his violin he began desperately to
play. The music had the desired
effect. The snakes gradually uncoil-
ed, and stretching themselves out in
the path, glided slowly toward the
player. This movement of the snakes
was anything but pleasant to Keister,
who kept saving away at the fiddle,
trying to devise, meanwhile scheme
for escaping. Closer and closer came
the snakes and faster and faster flew
the bow over the strings as he CULVER
ed and shook. AT last the snakes
reached point within two feet Of the
terrified fiddler, and winding them
selves up, they lifted their heads
closely together and fixed their shin
ing eyes on the musician. With a
yell he grabbed his fiddle by the neck
and brought it down with crushing
force Oh the heads Of the snakes. The
blows stunned the reptiles and Keister
kept hammering away until they were
dead. He broke his beloved violin
into splinters, but he saved his life.
The snakes measured six and seven
feet respectively. One carried ten
rattles and the other seven.
