that our stock of children's
clothing is a reliable, honest
one, and that it gives the pur-
chaser dollar for dollar of wear

superstitIOns About waves.

The Arab sailors believed that the high
seas of the coast OF Abyssinia were en-
chanted, and whenever they found them
selves among them they recited verses
which were supposed 10 snbdue them.
An old traveller tells me IN a voyage from
Messina 20 Malta he saw the captain, an
experienced sailor, standing at the bow
mutterinR and pointing with bis finger.
On being asked what be was doing he
replied that be was breaking the force
Of the fatal ware by making the sign Of
the cross and saying prayers proper for
such an occasion. The Perians believe
that the waves Of the Persian Gulf are
caused hy air entering caves which have
subterranean outlets under the ocean.
But one Of the most curious beliefs Of ell
--one closely akin 70 q certain ancient
Oriental bell belief--is that Of the South
Sea Islanders. According to their no.
ton, the rolling Of the sea Is caused By
q thunder god" In old times this
thunder god" killed the chief deity Of
the islands and was confined under the
ocean a. q punishment. His rolling with
rage caused the waves. list Louis Re-

A Caucasus Cheyalier.

The Caucasus is full of highwaymen,
who make the roads unsafe. But there
are also knights of good order there, of
whom the highwaymen are in terror.
The Listok of 1itiis reports an interest
ing illustration: A merchant of Tillis
made his way to neighboring city to
purchase horses. He had a large sum of
money with him. In the district of
Bortchalinsk he was assailed by three
Tartars, who tied him to tree. One of
them held dagger over his head, while
the other two unbuttoned his garments
aud made ready to steal what he had.
But suddenly man on horseback ap.
peared from behind hill. As soon as
the robbers sighted him they called out,
"Sha 'au halir!" (Satan comes), and
mounting their horses, disappeared in 0
moment. The man on horseback freed
the unfortunate merchant and told him tc
mount and resume his journey. The
merchant offered hundred ruble bill tC
his liberator, but the latter disdainiully
declined TO accept 1t. 'If thou hast
many of these things" he said, "endow
the poor aud hide the rest. Shatro does
not want thy money. Go thy way, and
include Shatro in thy prayers to Allah.

Another is a small cylinder, into which
one blows through two small reed tubes,
three balls of pith being kept bobbing
in a bit of cage over the cylinder by the
breath, while a cut in one of the tubes
produces a shrill whistle. Another is a
little man that is made to jump up long
stick by a bamboo spring, and still
another Is a wooden gentleman who rides
along between two wheels, being at.
tached to the axle with heavy base
A toy jinricksha is one of the more ex-
pensive paythiugs, showing a foreigner

The doctors are fond Of telling pa.
tlents, asserts the San Francisco CAroni-
Gle, that any particular symptoms which
they describe are the work of their i'm
agination, but recent case has shown
they are liable to error. A woman who
has just died in Bridgeport, Conn, want.
ed the hospital physician two years ago
to recover set OF false teeth which she
declared she had swallowed. An opera.
tion showed the stomach to be empty,
but the doctors told her the teeth had
been found. A post-mortem eNamiua-
tion showed she had lived two years
with the false teeth in her gulet.

bitches seemed, and how fearfully deepl
The machine, to the tailor's apprehen-
sion, seemed insanely bent on plunging
over the brink. His arms were pulled
almost out of their sockets. Perspira-
tion blinded his eyes. More and more
wildly with each rut swayed the crazy
bicycle, and whirled Old Hundred dizzy
brain. He came to the brow of the little
hill, which seemed fearful declivity.
Old Hundred clinched his teeth and
pushed back hard on the pedals, throw
ing on the brake with all his might.
just then he struck loose stone, lost
control of the wheel, and with closed
eyes rau directly toward the side, and
upset. The little tailor rolled over and
over down the hillside gully, and lay on
top of his wheel at the bottom.
Slowly Old Hundred rose, and found
to his intense relief that he had broken
no bones. To his equally great relief he
discovered that he had broken the bicy-
Gle. One pedal projected from the
crank at most astonishing angle.
A gay laugh rang out few yards
farther down the ditch, aud lol there on
its bowldery side sat the stout-hearted b.
c.; at her feet her tricky wheel!
A happy light shone in her eyes.
"My wheel is brokenl" said she, point
ing to handle-bar bent back some forty
degrees.
"And mine, too" said the smiling
tailor, showing the disaffected pedal.
'Isn't it too bad I'm afraid we'll have
to go home"
With sGme toll they hoisted their BIZ
cyles to the road again, and set out for
the town, truudling them happily.
And then it was that the tailor spoke
these memorable words:
"Susy," said he, and Miss Benefits
brave old heart knew what was ap-
preaching. "Susy, you see how very
unsteady these bicycles are, separated"
every" said b. c., trembiingly.
"But suppose, Susy, one were to take
two bicycle, like yours and mine, anu
put couple of axles across, and box
on top, with two seats and cover, what
would that be, Susy2"
"a family carriage" said B. c., look
ing downward with smile.
Eyes, Susy, and it wouldn't tip over,
but would run smoothly and safely, and
wouldn't it be nice, Susy2" and Old Hun.
dred tried to trundle with one hand, that
he might use the right arm for another
purpose, but it wouldn't work.
"Wouldn't it be much nicer, Susy"
Yes, Susy thought it would.
And so b. G. and Old Hundred walked
happily back to town along that Middle
ton Road henceforth blessed to then
both, trundling the fateful bicycles
which alone had been equal to the ending
of that long courtship.
Near town, Spoketire whirled smartly
up, and dismounted at sight of them.
"Had accidents, I see Too bad
However, l can soon straighten tina
out"
"We have decided, Susy and I, Mr.
Spoket,re," said the bold tailor proudly
"to sell our wheels, aud we want you tc
act as agent. Wen leave them at youl
shop. You see, Mr.. Spoketire, we have
decided, Susy and 1, to set up a family
carriage. - Yankee BLADE.

A waterproof paper has lately been in.
vented that will even stand boiling.
Metals are found to corrodo much

otherwise.
The metal in five cent nickel piece is
worth about half cent, and fifteen
cents will purchase copper enough to
make 50 worth of cents.
The Frankfort Germany Electrical
Exhibition will be furnished with lights,

distance of 107 miles.
The first known weather record was
kept by Walter Merle for the years 1897
to 1874. A few Photographic copies of
the original Latin manuscript-now in
the Bodleian Library-have just been
made.
Among the anomalies reported con-
cerning the past winter is that the
weather in Iceland was the mildest re-
membered. There was not, we are told,
flake of snow, nor a single hour Of
frost.
A new spool factory in the town of
Alpena, Mich, turns out $4,000 spools
daily. Last year the twenty-three mills
in the town put out 202, 900, 900 feet Of

There was recently exhibited in Dub
lin, Ireland, a new burner for lighthouse
use, possessing twice the illuminating
power of the largest burners now en-
ployed. 1t is calculated that this new
burner, in connection with specially
devised system of lenses, will transmit a
light equal to about eight millions of
candles, which far exceeds the most pow
erful light at present used.
Iron pipe is now welded by electricity
at the Columbus (Ga.) iron works. Co.
lumbus is the first city In the South in
which this new system has been en-
ployed. The managers of the iron works
expect to effect a considerable saving
over the old method, each weld taking
about seven seconds. From the tine OF
finishing one weld until the completion
of the next takes about one minute. This
includes clamping the two pipes, ad-
justing the position of the machine, weld
ing and taking out the pipes.
An ingenious machine is used in Eng.
land for preparing telegraph post arms.
| These arms are usually made from the
best selected English oak and vary il
length from two feet to four feet. They
are in the first case planed on the -four
sides by means of special planning ma
J chine, and then sawn to the exact length
required by means of double cross-cut
saving machine made specially for the
purpose. The arms are then passed on
60 the shaping machine, which rapid!
and effectively does its work. The ma
chine is quite self-contained aud has the
driving shaft placed overhead and sup
ported upon standards fixed to the mair
bed. The arrangements for dealing will
the various lengths of arms have beer
carefully worked out. At tho officia
test of the machine the wooden arm
were finished ut the rate of three pc
