Stonehenge is a famous ruin of great
but uncertain antiquity, situated in
the center of a plain near Amesbury in
Wiltshire, England. At present it is
merely confused mass of mosscovered
stones, which must be closely inspected
in order to trace out the original form,
which was two concentric circles of
huge upright stones, inclosing two
elipses, the whole surrounded by cir
cular ditch and embankment, the wall
being fifteen feet high and ], 010 in cir

There is much difference of opinion
among antiquarians as to what the
original building, monument or dixie
was used Tor. Many eminent scientists
believe it to be the remains of Druid

A Clever coun.srfeiter.

Becker at the end of the last CEN
fury, was the clever engraver of num-
Der of counterfeit Greek and Roman
coins. To give the requbite surface OF
worn age to his productions it was his
ingenious method to inclose his speci-
mems in box containing a number of
iron filings and then to take the box
out for drive or two on the jolting
roads of the day. After Becker had
supplied so large number of his coun-
terfeits as to almost glut the market
he cooIly turned around and confessed.
and turned an honest penny by pro
ducnag sets of his dies. so that now
there are few of our large collections
that do not possess specimens OF
Becker's dies. -Atheneum.

She Meant Business.

A few days ago as one of the even
ing trains on nearby short line had
neared the end of its run the coat
sleeve of the conductor, who was pass
ing down the aisle, was grasped by a
woman who told him that he had for
gotten to stop the train three stations
back, where she should have got of,
and where her ticket called for. She
demanded that the train be backed to
that station. He laughingly refused
her demand. She insisted and quoted
Blackstone in support of her rights
until the cold sweat stood out on his
conductorial brow. He argued, but
she was memorable, and finally he
backed the train to the required sta
ton, much to the disgust of the re-
mainder of the passengers, but to the
satisfaction of the woman.-Pittsburg

dumb barber. Not Popular.

A boss barber in Chicago declares
that it is all bosh about people not
wanting to be talked to in the chair.
He once thought the other way. but
after hiring dumb iourneyman he
changed his opinion. Nobody would
patronize the journeyman after discov-
ering he could not talk. and he was
therefore dismissed. Occasionally,
suppose" continued the boss, "a man
comes in who doesn't want to be talked
to, but my observation is that when
the average man comes into shop
and takes a chair he is much disap-
pointed If the barber doesn't entertain

of philosophers, who pursued it as a

The extent to which electricity is
being used in legitimate medical prac-
tice is rapidly on the increase, and
many of the new devices for applying
it have distinct merit. An apparatus
for the cure of deafness comprises a
battery, a belt, an electrode supported
on the belt and shaped to rest on the
ear, an opening on one side to receive
the ear and connections between the
electrode and the battery. This pro
vides "A convenient and efficient mode
of receiving the current. which can be
applied in currents of finely graduated
