as did the widow of old John StoneceY-
pher. John was no account. he
wouldn't work, but LACED around home
and consumed what his industrious wife
and his boys and girls made on ! tile
farm down in Camden county. John
came up missing one day. Search was
made for him, supposng he was off
drunk. Finally, In the course of a
week, some neighbor suggested pos
sibly he had been drowned. They
dragged the creek for him and fonnd
him.
The remains were in sad condition,
Identification depending principally
upon his apparel, They brought him
home and laid him out on the floor OF
the one small room Of his late resi-
dence. The stricken widow set her
arms akimbo, and looking calmly down
upon him, remarked, swell, he's pref
ty dead, amt hep" Seeing something
unusual about his mouth she stopped
down, caught hold Of it and pulled out
an eel. The head of another took its
place aut so on until she had half a

THE LION AND THE SKUNK.
In describing what will become of the
Third party he gives this little allegory:
81 have somewhere read story of a
lion who lay asleep in forest. There
came along a pestiferouS little animal
whose name l will not call, who, with
an old grudge against the lion, thought
IL would be some salts faction to slip up
and bite him, for he thought he was
dead. The lion was not dead. he
awoke and simply placed his paw upon
this pestiferous little animal and all
that was left him was a greasy spot in
the sand and little stencil.
81 want to tell you, my fellow citi-
zens, that the Democratic lion In
Georgia is alive and awake, and in No
vember he will place the paw OF his
power upon this pestiferouS littls skunk
of Third party, and all that will be
left OF it will be little greasy spot in
the sand and little stencil"

in this or any sort of gardening.
An English woman Of my acquaintance in
America attributes her remarkable success with
house plants to her constant effort to provide
moisture for the part of the plant above ground.
She occasionally drenches the SOIL and daily
sprinkles the plants with cool water. and every
fourth or fifth day refreshes every leaf or
branch by dipping sponge into pail of cool
water in which is dissolved little CASTLE soap
and an atom of ammonia. squeezing it over them.
This she does so dexterously and quickly that it
is no trouble, but as she declares, a great
pleasure.
Her plant stands, one in the breakfast room.

blossom, and another in her own ''snuggery."

1t is to be hoped, says Henry Labouchere,
MP, in London Truth, that the Princess Marie
of Edinburgh will not try to live up to the nom
sensically written portraits which have been
given of her in French journals and repeated
in English ones. She is spoken of in one of
them as resembling strikingly her great father,
the Car Nicholas. l saw the princess. since
she was grown up, at Portsmouth. as she was
going to cross over to Osborne, and did not see
even trace of resemblance to him, but thought
her like both the Saxe-Coburgs and her grand
mother, the late Empress of Russia. who was
up to the age of forty very beautiful woman,
but took later a brooding expression and the
look chronic bronchitis gives. They, with ad-
vancing years to aid them, spoiled her, and she
was not even interesting when elderly. If the
Gar Nicholas was like his portrait he would
not now be thought handsome-the staring
eyes, pseudo-classical face and the buckram
personality that was proclaimed if face, figure,
carriage and belongings would not be to present
day taste, which prefers expression with irregu-
lar features to wig-block regularity and a con-
ventional physiognomy.

TO BRING THE MOON CLOSE To Us.
A French ssvant Proposes . Gigantic
Crystal Mirror.


From the London Daily Chronicle.
NJ Francois Deioncle, French savant. and
deputy for the Basses Apes, has a marvellous
project in hand which he hopes to see CON-
pieted IN time to astonish mankind at the Paris
exhibition of 1900. Though the moon is 2io.-
GOO miles distant from the earth, VI. Deloncle
thinks he can construct an apparatus which will
enable us to examine that luminary at very close
quarters.
Inc idea has been expounded by the author
before a French scientific society, and NJ. Del
oncle says. in substance. that the only obstacle
to close observation OF celestial bodies is the
relative imperfection of instruments, and that
all that Is required is an enlargement aud inn
provement OF the present instruments. A-tron-
omers. SAYS VI. Deloncle. have reckoned that
the image OF the moon can be brought quite
close TO the earth by means of a crystal mirror
eight meters in diameter. but which owing TO
the thickness required. would weigh about
eight tons. He has consulted various opticians
In Paris and they are prepared to execute the
work before the year 1900
There remains. however. the auestion Of the
structure which would be required TO hold this
gigantic mirror. and upon this point NJ Maurice
Loewy, distinguished French astronomer,
says that while in principle VI. peloncle's
scheme is possible. there are enormous difficult
ties in the way of its realization. the chief Of
which. so far as the exhibition is concerned, is
that the apparatus must be erected on a noun
tain about two miles in height in order TO se-
cure the proper atmospheric conditions. II
this and other difficulties were surmounted,
says VI. Loewy. there would be some very re-
markable results. for il would be possible to
clearly distinguish in the movement objects
about the size of four-story house.
