The Captain Had No Wish That His Foe
 Be Bclitticd.


 There Is such thing as poisoning all the pleasant occurrences of life by drops of depreciation. 'Yes, your ex- animation papers are always marked high" said one schoolgirl to another. ''lt must be because your writing is so plain"
 When the Alabama was destroyed by the kears arge in 1864 there was, of course, great rejoicing in the northern states, and complimentary tributes were abundantly showered cn Capt. Winslow for his achievement X large oil-painting of the battle was presented to Secretary Seward. It represented the kearsarge. with flying colors. in the foreground; the Alabama, half-sub- merged in the middle distance
 One day when Capt Winslow went to call upon the secretary his attention was drawn to the picture. and he was questioned concerning its fidelity in matters of detail He replied that i, correctly delineated the state of the sky and sea on that day. and that the portrait of the kearsarge was a very good one. Here he paused. and some one asked:
 But what else, captain2 Is there anything wrongP"
 Yes said the veteran sailor. with emphasis. Il wish these artists would not always represent the Alabama as smaller than the kearsarge. She was as large as my vessel; she had as many guns and more men"

HORSE SNAKES.
The Popular Dciusion Concerning Them
 Is Widespread.


 Is Widespread.
 There is n current delusion in almost every community, especially in farming districts where people have better chacce to observe such things that horse hairs are capable of being con- verted into snakes The question has often been discussed but still there are some features about the matter that may not prove uninteresting. To begin with, the root of the hair must be with it or else it will not take on a diving. snake ike existence, as some claim it really does under certain con- ditions.
 In muddy. tepid water the hair. through its roots. in accordance with the law of life by the law of affinity, absorbs vitalizing elements. the same as it did when on the animal. And the substance of the hair being animal as we'll as vegetable life, it Is naturally more or less sensitive to the touch. For more than a quarter of century the evolntionist Las laid more or less stress upon this horse-hair snake phenomena; but the whole argument has but little weight from the evolu- tionists standpoint as there is no re- production among these snakes, without reproduction their whole faith is delusion.

The most precious wine in the world is that contained in a task named the Rose in the Bremen Town Hall eel lars. It is Rudesheim Rhine wine from the year l653, and the cask is replenished by degrees, whenever wine is drawn. with carefully washed and dried gravel. The wine has at pres ent the color of dark beer and very hard taste. but an indescribable aroma It Is never sold. but destined exclusive ly for the sick of Bremen. who receive very small quantity on tho produc- tion of doctors certificate. In the year 1653 stuck had the value of 800 gold dollars Ca gold dollar equals 9S marks).
