Hard Ernsf In Ohio.

SPRINGFIELD, O., April 26.-There
was hard frost last night in Central
Ohio. and IL was cold enough to form a
thin coating OF ice on standing water,
as reported from several points. With
peach, cherry and some pear trees IN
full bloom, there was great reason to
fear serious damage and loss, but so far
as can learned little damage has been
done. The best testimony from experts
is that it will require warm day or
two for the situation to develop as to
fruit. Wheat has not been damaged, in
fact. some cooler weather for few
weeks would be a benefit, as the grow
ing grain was likely to run too much to
straw.

Shaving Is Dangerous.

We have often heard that shaving
the face with a razor was bad thing
that it injured the nerves and caused
weak eyes; that it removed the natural
covering from the throat and neck,
and that altogether it was thoroughly
physiological. A writer in The Med
ical Classics has been looking into this
matter little more closely. By the
aid of microscope applied to close
ly shaven face he discovered that the
skin resembles piece of raw beef.
The razor removes not only the hair,
but also a portion Of the cuticle. The
blood vessels thus exposed are not
visible to the naked eye, but under
the microscope each little quivering
mouth holds a drop Of blood. The
nerve lips are also uncovered and the
pores are left unprocted. making the
skin tender and unhealthy, and the
person is liable to haye colds, hoarse-
ness and sore throat.

Onions And watercresses,

The watercress is "a plant contains
many sanitary qualities. A curious
characteristic Of it is that, if grown in
ferruginous stream, it absorbs into
itself five times the amount of iron
that any other plants does. For all
anemic constitutions it is, therefore
specially of value. But it also con
tains proportions of garlic and sulphur,
of iodine and phosphates, and is a
blood purifier, while abroad it is
thought most wholesome condiment
with meat, roast or grilled.
The odor of the onion, which is
what makes it so unpleasant, is due to
a volatile oil, which is the same as
that in garlic, though in the onion it
is milder and naturally does not last
SO long. There are, besides. easy
ways Of removing at once all unpleas-
antness from the breath. A little
parsley, or few grains of coffee, or
even swallow or two of milk, if taken
after eating proves an effective rem

The "Thirteenr Superstition.

lam superstitious by heredity, being
by French extraction, a creole Of
Louisiana, and my natural tendency
was no doubt fostered by my colored
nurse. In our country we are apt to
consider that,superstition goes hand in
hand with ignorance, but among the
Latins it exists among those Of the
highest as we'll as the lowest classes,
and there is great tendency to it
among their descendants, and indeed
among all people of representative
natures who are impressionable and of
excitable temperaments. No one can
deplore or combat superstition more
than myself, and had I children 1
should from their earliest years en-
deavor to eradicate any such tendency.
Although personally I should be
entirely willing to make one Of a party
of thirteen at table, it would cause me
discomfort for one shom l love to do
SO. My Unborn prejudice against thir.
teen was fostered by the following
painful experience birthday dinner
was given in my honor. Just as we
were about to enter the dinner-room,
two dear friends just from Europe
happened to drop in, and were per-
suaded to remain to dinner. When
the meal was half over, foreign
friend at my left whispered that we
were thirteen, but begged me not to
call attention to the fact, saying jest
ingly that no chance at that late stage
Of the dinner would break the spell.
Within three weeks one of the English
ladies was dead, and within as many
months the friend at my left lay in
his grave.
Another and very similar instance
happened at dinner which / gave a
year or two ago and l should certain
ly be unwilling again to aid " my
friends to a party of thirteen, or allow
any guest to happen in and make up
that uumber.-Mrs. Frank Leslie, in

A weste,.,, Romance.

In the center of Senator ingalls,
thirty.acre truck farm, south OF
Atchison, Kan, surrounded BY trees
and covered with blue grass. is a grave
which evidently received considerable
attention for many years. Il is sup
posed to contain the remains OF an
Indian girl and her palefaced lover.
Away back in the early part OF this
century, when what is now known as
Kansas belonged to the Territory of
Louisiana, there lived in lonely hut
on the bank Of the Missouri River an
old Indian and his daughter, who had
wandered away from some Southern
tribe. One day white hunter stop
ped at the hut, having been lost IN the
wilderness. He was taken sick the
day he reached the place, and was
nursed by the Indian girl for several
weeks until he recovered.
The girl fell desperately in love
with her patient. The man was al
ready married, and so explained to the
girl. She was crazed by her love, how
ever, and the night before the day set
for his departure she crept to bis
couch and shot an arrow through his
heart and then killed herself. The
father found the pair dead, and they
were buried togather.
The grave on Mr.. Ingalls, truck
farm is supposed to contain all that is
left of this couple.
