They ought to know it, and try it. Every

VERY AGGRAvATiNG.

Plalnt of Boston Man Who Does Not
Understand Female Nature.
A Boston business man, who Is some
thing of q crank, met Globe man yes
terday afternoon, and, after exchanging
few words about the result Of the cleo
tions, said: "Did you ever notice what
aggravating creatures women are? Or
have been singularly afflicted in hav-
ing one of the worst of them for my
wife?"
"Why, what's the matter now?" ques-
toned the writer in return.
"Oh with sigh), my wife has tho life
worried out of me with her foolish ques-
tions and aggravating remarks. Now, for
instance, only the other day had
quietly sneaked upstairs so that Knight
shave myself without interruption, and
had sharpened my razor, fixed my glass
in the window, lathered myself and had
just commenced operations on my beard,
which is not one Of the easiest to shave
by any means. / was not in very
pleasant frame Of mind, you may believe,
and, to make it worse, just at that juno

and asked:

said: Are You shaving, dear2' turned

IRON FROM THE SKY.

Tho Raw Material from which the A.
tees Made Their implements.
When Cortez had completed the CON-
quest of Mexico, the Spaniards, among Q
great many other peculiar and extraodi-
nary observations which they made in
that remarkable country, were particu-
larly struck and puzzled by one fact.
They noticed that the Aztecs possessed
certain implements, such as knives, dag
gers, etc., made of iron, but 1t seemed
that only the most distinguished of the
natives possessed such, that iron was q
great rarity, and was priced higher than
gold.
At first the Spaniards believed that
the Aztecs extracted the metal in some
crude fashion from its ore, which
abounded in many parts of the country,
but they soon ascertained that this was
not the case. They found that not
single smelling furnace existed in the
empire, and their surprise was not small
when they learned that the Aztecs were
totally unacquainted with any method
Of extracting the iron from the ore,
which indeed they had never suspected
of any kinship with the highly valued
metal.
The question whence the Aztecs had
procured the little iron they possessed
became a perplexing problem to the
Spaniards, problem which they were
never able to solve. The natives do not
seem to have enlightened them much
on the subject, for when asked they
mysteriously pointed to the sky and in
dicated that they obtained their iron
from the regions above. Such asser-
tions no doubt the Spaniards received
with an incredulous smile, and they con-
cluded that the Aztccs received it by
way of traffic with some other perhaps
more civilized nation, which they sus-
pected to exist and kept looking for,
north and south, for more than hum
dred years.
1t was left to modern science to un-
ravel the mystery. The Aztecs were
quite correct. The iron of which they
had made their implements was not
fashioned from materials of this ter
restrial globe, but had come to them
from the unknown regions of space.
Their iron was, in fact, of meteoric
origin, like that Of the Mayas Of Yucca
tan and the Incas of Peru, of which
many weapons are still preserved in col
lections.

There Is great commotion among the
jewish population Of Boston, caused by
an order recently issued by the board Of
health forbiddins the killing Of fowl
within the thickly settled sections Of the
city. except In places especially assigned
for that purpose by tho board Of health.
The Jews put great reliance ON poultry
for their sustenance, and II Is probable
that they consume as many chickens rs
all the other people Of Boston put to-
gcther. The poultry that Is consumed
by others than the Jews Is generally
killed outside. but all tho fowls intend
cd for Jewish consumption have hith-
erto been killed In this city.
The reason for this Is to be found In
the Jewish law. The meat Of no animal
or fowl that has not been killed by n per-
son authorized by the rabbi to slaughter
such animal or fowl can be eaten by =
Jew, nor can 1t be eaten after having
been killed for over two days. Tho con-
sequence Is that the people Of this race
prefer to buy their own fowls or animals
alive and have them killed by the proper
authority. II Is calculated that some
thing like 5000 chickens arc brought into
Boston alive every week for Jewish con-
sumption alonc.-Boston Herald.
