In a great city like Paris there are thou
Iands Of persons who have no trade or pro-
fession, and who are obliged TO resort 10 all
sorts Of tricks to get their daily bread.
Some managete accomplish this feat hon
sstly, while others work unscrupulously
lpon the credulity Of their fellows. Vau-
ievillists and caricaturists repeatedly exer-
Use their wit at the expense Of the unfor-
Sunate ones whom necessity forces ilto
strange and improbable callings. Doubt
less these wits often exaggerate the reality,
but the fact remains that there are quanti-
ties Of poor wretches here who really get
their living by pursuing the queerest and
most ingenious occupations.
II you question one of these tradeless in
divlduals upon his manner Of living he
will reply, ''0h, have a dodgeg' IL is
very rare that he will consent TO give you
more ample explanations. For common
mortals his way of procuring food, clothing
and lodging is decidedly enigmatical.
These men who invent "dodges" generally
live in furnished lodgings, where the
chambers contain several beds.
A "dodger" divines, so to speak, a man
who is in the same line of business, and the
similarity OF their characters unites theal
on a common footing. They club together
to get rid Of thestrange merchandise that
others have invented. The one whs creates
does not reveal his manner Of inventing to
his partner, and this one in his turl con-
ceals as well as he can the profits obtained
by the sale. The mistrust is reciprocal.
The principal dodgers are the street ped
dlers who hawk about the thousand and
one ingenious toys that are constantly in.
vented in this great city, who sell newspa.
pers when they have few francs in their
pocket to buy stock from the wholesale
dealers in Rue du Croissant, or who traffic
in theater tickets during the evening"

The Greatest Strike,

Among the great strikes that of DR.. Miles
in discovering his New Heart Cure has rroven
itself to be one of the most important. The
demand for it has become astonishing. AL
ready the treatment of heart disease is being
revolutionized, and many unexpected cures
effected. 1t soon relieves short breath, fut-
tering, pains in side, arm, shoulder, weak and
hungry spells, oppression, swelling of ankles,

The Caves of Corsica.

Travellers and scientists are greatly in
terested in the recent discovery of wonder
full caves on the island of Corsica. A miner
who undertook to explore them few
weeks ago found it impossible to do so. He
discovered various small caves close to-
gether which led to mammoth cave some
distance from the original openings. The
roof of the mammoth cave was between
sixty and seventy feet high. After travel
ing underground for some time he came
upon an immense lake, which made fur
ther progress impossible.
According to his estimates, the lake Is
situated under the mountain chain La Re-
vellata, near Calva, and gets its water
from the ocean. In support of his theory
small grotto was discovered on Cape Re-
vellata, on level with the sea, which is
believed to be connected with the caves.
The length of the caves along the coast is
estimated at thirty miles. A society of sa-
wants has been formed to explore the place
thoroughly this summer. - Philadelphia

The "Pig of the Rushes.n -

In Ireland the lizard is called "aire
luichair," which, literally translated,
means 'the pig of the rushes." 1t is held
in great esteem for its curative powers.
When caught the person who is anxious to
receive the curative power takes the aire
luichair in his hand and licks the creature
all overhead, feet, belly, legs, Sides and
tail-and the tongue Of the person who
thus licks the aire luichair is said to ever
afterward possess the power of taking the
pain and sting out of a burn.
The aire luichair crawling across the
throat of one suffering with quinzy, or the
hands of person who has licked or even
recently handled one of the little creatures,
is thought to be sovereign remedy for
that disease. There is also prevailing
idea that the aire luichair is always on the
watch to crawl down the throat of any per-
son who happens to fall asleep out of doors.

Now swell our national song;

But, take your time Miss Long

Has marrying on the brain,
Browns gray mare can't be beat,
While coming through the rye:
Let me kiss him for his mother,
Said the spider to the fly.

Oh. Susannah, don't you cry,
For we're all nodding through the world,
So then root. hog or die.

For Johnny stole the ham,
