Take. for Instance, the Drummer's Luck
 In Finding His Diamond Ring.
 "Talk about luck, guess l am one of the luckiest men living" said Mr. Henderson, drummer, at the Ander- son, Pittsburgh, to Dispatch reporter Here is sample of it: have been car rying valuable diamond ring wrapped in tissue paper in my pocket. Last evening I discovered it was gone, and searched a number of places where I thought I dropped it in vain. During the day was at the union station and bought a ticket for Cincinnati. A friend suggested that possibly had pulled it out of my pocket when paying for the transportation. I concluded at once if that were true that my chances were one in million of finding it.
 Well, about ten o'clock last evening decided to go to the station and look around. The first thing l saw below the ticket window was the little bunch of tissue paper with the ring in it. It had been lying in that public place six hours. Some one had kicked it against the wall, supposing it was only piece of paper. l offered odds on the Bos- tons and they won. believe I am a sure mascot. l wore an opal once for thirty days, and I had bad luck all the time. l came very nearly being killed in wreck, and then discarded the ring. have been fortunate, as usual, since that time"

Dangers of Fast Eating.

Americans in general are noted for the habit of fast eating While this practice of quick lunches usually ends in some form of dyspepsia, there is an- other result far more serious. The best medical authorities agree that sun stroke is far more frequent after than before noon, and there are two good reasons for this. In the first place, the heat is most intense during the early part of the afternoon; and, secondly, after meal the stomach and other organs of digestion are very much con gested with blood. The internal organs being congested, the surface blood vessels are comparatively empty and the function of precipitation is consid- erably interfered with. Sunstroke is apt to follow any interference with free precipitation, and the process of jliges- tion interferes by drawing off the blood from the skin to the stom ach.

NeM Word in Kansas,

An expressive phrase has been coined to meet the Kansas City situation. It is "a whereas" Somebody inquiries after the finSpcial standing of John Smith. "John Smith?' somebody else replies. "Oh, he is "a whereas The phrase is in common use. A stranger is not long ira learning the meaning, "A whereas" is man who has had piece of property sold out by the sheriff to satisfy lnortgage. One can readily trace the derivation by thinking for a moment of the form in which sheriffs' sales are advertised. "Whereas, John Smith, by his certain deed of trust, " and so on and so on. That is the way the official information starts off, and that is why John Smith is called Ia whereas"

WANTED THE BISHOP HANGED.
A Novel Wager and It's Lu6fcrous Out
 come.


 The use of names on petitions has come to be standing joke, and a long column of well-known signatures thus appended is little more than an un- meaning farce. We saw with our own eyes, says the New York Journal of Commerce, the well-signed document of which so much was said nearly forty years ago.
 gentleman made wager that he would procure at least a hundred we'll known churchmen to sign petition to hang the bishop of this diocese. He drew up the document, had it copied in a fine, clerliy hand and started out to effect his purpose. He did not utter any falschood or misrepresent the character of the paper,
 It began with: "Whereas, the best interests of the Protestant Episcopal church, etc, making a long preamble, and the request that the bishop be sus- pended by the neck came before the conclusion. The canvasser represented it as petition to the ecclesiastical au- thorities in matter that would deeply affect the welfare of the church.
 Having obtained one or two leading names the rest was easy, and he could have secured thousands instead of hun dreds if he had cared to persevere m the effort.

 Peter, a small boy, had been punished for disturbing things on the library table, where his father often sat to write, but his fondness for inspecting this table was so great that he could hardly refrain from taking some article which lay upon the prohibited spot One evening when there was com pany at the house Peter sat in corner in the library while his father and the guests cOnversed.
 A discussion arose among them as to the proper pronunciation of the word "bicycle."
 ! 'Let's look in the dictionary" said Peters father.
 He took the book from the library table and opened it.
 Why" he said, presently, "the word isn't in the dictionaryl How do you &C., count for that?"
 Peter, in his corner, heard the ques- ton and felt guilty.
 'I-I-I took it, papa" he exclaimed, but wont do it again-truly, wont!"

 -Four full tons of the purest gold is carried around in the mouths of Phila- delphia's one million inhabitants"
 It was well-known dentists supply man, says the Record, that r,.0ealed this forgotten asset of the Quaker City, and his formidable array of figures was suf- ficient proof that the estimate is nigh to the fact. "lt is not difficult" he went on. 'for us to tell about how much of the precious metal is yearly rammed into the aching teeth of Philadelphia. It is something short of 5000 ounces. Now the average length of human life we will say is thirty-five years. Null tiply the two together and we have an approximation to the sum total of gold that an army of dentists have placed in the molars and bicuspids of all those now living in this city. It is S,750 pounds, or about four long tons
 "As to the value of this unfortunately unavailable wealth it is over S2, 800, 0OO The gold used in the trade is worth about S25 an ounce, so that years con sumption costs S75,OO0. Such figures make one feel like unloading his worries of all their treasure and substituting some less valuable metal"
 "Your figures are all right" said n prominent Walnut street dentist in con firmation of the supplements estimate And just think" he went on, "what a gold mine some of our cemeteries are. There must be sl0O,O0O,OOO worth of shining gold in all the acres of burial ground about Philadelphia. But the veins are full of flaws, and gold-mining on the body-snatching plan would hard ly be a success"

SPECTAClES AND WRINKLES.

If Beauty Wants to Keep a Fall Round
 Face She Must Wear Glasses.
 If man or woman, particularly the latter, wishes to preserve good looks and avoid wrinkles in the face, he or she must wear glasses. noted score of faces on the street, says an optician in the St. Louis Globe Democrat, and each face was wrinkled very much, be- cause the suns rays poured down with blinding heat, and it was impossible to avoid it. The wrinkling of the face was an involuntary action of the mus cles to protect the eyes, and the squint- ing look that was apparent on each face was an indication that the eyes were suffering from the intensely bright rays of the sun. In each case the eyes were weak, not weak enough to interfere with the power of sight, but, neverthe- less, weak enough to be apparent. The constant blinking and squinting pro duced a permanent contraction of the muscles and corrugated the skin of the face, so that after awhile wrinkles would appear,
 There were three things to be done. To avoid wrinkles, and the puckered appearance of the face under the eyes, person with weak eyes should habitu- ally carry parasol or umbrella. This course is not always practicable. So, when it is not possil'e to carry par asol or an umbrella, a person should all ways keep the eyes closed when not in use, for instance, when riding in the cars. The third means of avoiding wrinkles and the contraction of the muscles under the eyes is to wear spec tacles. This latter means of protection is not likely to be adopted by many people, particularly by many of the foir

Republican Efforts to Absorb North Da-
kota Prohibitionists Unsuccessful
JAMEsTowN, N. D., Aug. 9.-There is a
division among prohibitionists regarding
the convention called at jamestown Aug.
q, to organize prohibition party in the
state and to prepare for the campaign in
1892. The committee calls attention to the
Importance of the gathering and urges a
full attendance throughout. state con-
vention is called by Chairman Dickie, of
the national executive committee of the
prohibition party. Charles Pollock, of
Fargo, leading prohibition republican, is
out with letter declaring no necessity for
a prohibition party, ss the republican
party and the administration have under
taken to complete the temperance reform
movement in the state and to enforce the
present prohibition law. which is the most
severe of that of any state in the
union. Great dissatisfaction exists among
many republicans at being forced
to swallow the prohibition law with it's ex-
cessiye penalties of imprisonment and con-
tiscation of property. They desire prohibi-
tion handled on it's merits, and not as a
piece of party machinery. and there are
numerous declarations of voting with the
democrats If q satisfactory state ticket. is
put in the field by them. Harmony is being
loudly called for by the republican party
leaders. but the attempt of certain leading
republican politicians to fasten prohibition
to the &. o. p. is not calculated to bring
about this desired end. There is a pros
pect of lively rumpus ahead, and no final
settlement until the re-submission matter
flu ther complicated by the farmers alliance
declaring for prohibition, and it is con-
ceded that the alliance movement is RAPIDLY
gaining strength in the state.

PARIS, Aug. 9.-The Gaulois publishes the
following dispatch from Berlin: Emperor
William arrived to-day at Kiel and is at
present unable to leave his yacht. The en-
peror's condition is much more grave than
will be admitted, for not only does he suffer
from his knee joint and ear trouble but
terribly severe rheumatic pains absolutely
nail him to his chair and will compel him
to remain utterly inactive for at least
fortnight without the prospect of stirring.
The doctors, while stating that the alarm
ing news circulated is exaggerated. say
that if the emperor continues to refuse to
submit to the treatment prescribed, his
rheumatism must soon assume more
serious aspect and attack the heart. For the
moment he quite unable to undertake any
work and it is thought his stay at Kel may
benefit him If he keeps to the regime laid
down. But they fear his ardent tempera-
ment will not resign itself to tho enforced
repose there. There is much anxiety as to
tho condition of the emperor and
VIII be the outcome should
his disease have fatal ending. These
thoughts are not remarkable az the emperor
does not husband his resources and will
surely continues his series of fatiguing
journeys and duties as soon as the first sign
of Improvement begins to be felt. 1t is
an absolute fact that the emperor
cried with pain when moved. His, ear
trouble is increasing and causes frequent
epileptic fits which are recurring at shorter
intervals and with greater intensity than
before, SO that the most serious apprehen-
sions are entertained as to the result
throughout the German empire.
