HOW AN AUNT WAS FOUND.
Lost Child Whose KnowIedoa =
Rntanv Cana L.. q. ~,

A Lost Child Whose KNOWLEDGE Of
Botany Came Into Good PLAY.
Colonel W. D. Moore tells a story which
would, could it be given in print as Mr..
Moore tells it, produce a great effect.
Ex-Sheriff Cluley was accosted a day or
two since at the corner of Sixth street
and Liberty avenue by little tot, girl,
too young to talk plainly, who pulled at
his coat and asked do 90 know Aunt
Tatie?'
Somewhat surprised, Mr.. Cluley re-
piled that he could not say unless he
knew "Aunt Tatie's" last name. The
child opined that the wanted party
didn't have any last name; she was s'dist
/ Aunt Tatie." The little one then ex-
| planned that she was lost, and she was in
great distress, her lips quivering so that
at times she could scarcely speak.
/ Mr.. Cluley thought with all his might
for few moments, when an idea struck
| him and he asked the child for descrip-
| ton of his aunt The little maiden re-
/ piled that aunt Tatie' was rather tall
and wore nasturtium flowers in her bon
/ net.
Now, Mr.. Cluley would hardly stand
a creditable examination in botany. He
/ knC'- cabbages from potato vines. and
/ knows the nasturtium when he sees it
on the table in the shape of pickle, but
to save his soul he could not tell what
| its flower was like. Again he rubbed
| his dome of thought until he rubbed
into 1t fresh suggestion and acted upon
1t at once. AccOsting a lady who was
passing, he asked her if she knew a mas
! turtium flower when she saw it She
was at first disposed to resent the uues-
| ton as an impertinence, when Mr.. Gu
| ley FASTENED to explain, and begged her
| to take an observation and ascertain
whether there were any ladies in the
| neighbOrhood with that familiar flower
/ in their bOnnets.
The lady glanced into several MILL
merry and dry goods stores, and finally
called out that she had discovered a
lady with bonnet bearing the flower
wanted She pointed her out, and i'm
mediately the little one cried out Joy
fully, That's Aunt Tatie."
Aunt Tatie" was disposed to be cross
with her charge for wandering away
from the spot she had designated to wait
until her aunt did some shopping, but
Mr.. Cluley's feelings were aroused, and
he wouldn't hear the little one scolded.
Instead he proceeded to reprimand the
woman for her thoughtIessness in leav-
ing her charge exposed to the danger Of
being kidnapped.
"Aunt Tatie" had become 50 interested
in her shopping that she had forgotten
to note the flight Of time Had the little
one not been bright enough to recoIlect
the name of the flower in the bonnet she
would probably have been crying her
eyes out, guest at the central station.
and her aunt would have been frantic

An interesting point is the cause Of
the different shades of color we see in
the eyes. On a certain membrane in the
interior are numerous cells, called pig
ment'' cells. When these are present in
very great numbers they produce that
deep black color of some eyes, and in
proportion to their numbers decrease
also the depth of color, till finally a light
blue is reached. In certain eyes these
pigment cells do not exist at all, being
wanting, indeed, all through the system,
hair and skin. a person of this descrip-
ton is called All albino. and among ami
mails we find a parallel in the case of
the white abbit-Chambers Journal.

A Sensible View of the Seat Question


The question of relinquishing seats to

come to my place of business at the

A dozen meu who were in the habit Of
loafing away their Sundays outside of
the old Penobscot meeting house, while
their wives attended service, were gath

day the lesson was upon the death of
Moses, and the teacher, having located

Generally speaking, inventors, like
poets, are born, not made Nearly every
boy can become a good mechanic or
tradesman by diligent study and perse-
verance, but not every one can become
a good inventor. IF he has a "knack"
for invention, study and hard work will
greatly help him, and he stands fair
chance some day of succeeding as well
IN his chosen line as his brother play-
mates do in business or professional life.
Invention is no longer a spasmodic work,
but a legitimate branch of industry,
which has its rewards and remunera-
lions for those who follow it faithfully.

The Palouse City News says that
Wednesday afternoon young man,
VIM. Etkinson by name, began to cause
a disturbance at the Woods saloon. As
he was armed with a wicked looking
knife the marshal was notified. He sRc-
ceeded in taxing away the weapon and
then inquired OF Etkinson what he was
doing with it. The prisoner replied that
he had purchased the knife with the in
tention of killing two men, who he claim
ed had robbed him Of $75. AS his story
was disjointed and Improbable the mar
shal decided to lock him up. But this
proved no easy task. Etkinson fought
desperately and seemed endowed with
the strength OF three men. He was lit
erall carried to the Jail by the marshal
and several assistants Daring the
struggle he raved and cursed like mad
man, and after being locked up, threat
ened to commit suicide and tore his
clothes into shreds. 1t has been learned
that the prisoner was sent from Colfax
to the insane asylum at Steilacoom about
year ago. At that time he was affllct-
ed witty the same idea that he had been
robbed and must kill some one in re-
venge.

The Ecumenical Conference OF the
Methodist Church will be held at WASH
ington, ID. O., October 7th to 21st, 1891.
The Baltimore & Ohio r. r. has arranged
10 carry delegates and others at q
rate of a fare and one third for the round
trip. To secure this rate parties must
purchase first class limited tickets to
Washington via the B. & o. Road, taking
receipt or certificate from ticket agent
and on presentation of this certificate
properly endorsed by the authorized Of
ticer OF the Conference, return tick eta
will be sold from Washington back to
original starting point at one third of the
first class limited fare.
The express trains of the B. & o. r.. Il.
are vestibuled throughout, thus entirely
overcoming the swaying motion of the
cars while rounding curves at high speed.
Trains are also heated by steam drawn
from the locomotive. The Road crosses
the Alleghenies at high altitude and
the mountains at this season of the year
clad in their autumnal tints are most
beautiful. After crossing the mountains
the Road winds its way along the Po-
tomac, passing through Harper's Ferry
where Old John Browns Fort and other
points OF historic interest may be seen
from the train.
An illustrated Guide to Washington
and complete time table and map of the
line will be furnished upon application
to the Central Passenger Agent OF the
B. & o. S. W. r. R., Cincinnati, Ohio.
