How Scissors are Made.

Though no complexities are involved
in the making of scissors or much skill
required, yet the process of manufac-
ture is very interesting. They are
forged from good bar steel heated to
redness, each blade being cut off with
sefficient metal to form the shank. or
that destined to become the cutting
part, and bow, or that which later on
is fashioned into the holding portion.
For the bow small hole is punched
and this is afterwards expanded to the
required size by hammering it on a
conical anvil, after which both shank
and bow are filed into a more perfect
shape and the hole bored in the
middle for the rivet. The blades are
next ground and the handles filled
smooth and FURNISHED with oil and
emery, after which the pairs are fitted
together and tested as to their easy
working.
They are not yet finished, however.
They have to undergo hardening and
tempering and be again adjusted, after
which they are finally put together
again and polished for the third time.
In comparing the edges of knives and
scissors it viii be noticed, of course
that the latter are not in any way SO
sharply ground as the former and that,
in cutting, scissors crush and bruise
more than knives. s.--Moratreal Star.

The Nails from Jesus Hands.

The "iron crown" which worked up
the minds of the people of the middle
ages to such an extent as finally to be-
come an object of worship, is in fact a
gold crown, the secret magic of the
name resting on the tradition that the
inside ring of iron was made from the
nails which were driven through the
hands of Jesus at the time of the cruci-
fiXion.
But little is known concerning the
history of the iron crown until after
the coronation of Agilulf, king of the
Lombards. 1t is generally believed
that it was made for that monarch in
the year sol. 1t was used by Char
lemagne and by all the after emperors
of France who were kings of the Lom-
bards. Napoleon put it on his head
when he was in Milan in 1896, saying:
"God has given it to me-"
This celebrated relic is now in Naples
among the state jewels. 1t was cap
fured and taken by the Austrians to
Vienna in 1859, but was resumed to
Italy in 1866. Believers in the sacred
hoop of iron inside the crown point to
the fact that there is not speck of
rust upon it, although nearly two
thousand years old. - Philadelphia

dear, thank God! my name will be
cleared at last"

dear, thank God! my name will be
cleared at last"
The clearing OF his name was Charles
first thought, but after it came the
very satisfactory one of making Jonas
pay the principal and interest due him.
"And after that is done, Josie, 1 shall
sue him for defamation of character,
and make him pay for every inso-
lence."
This was no idle threat The next
morningCharies' lawyer confronted the
falsehearted scoundrel with his O o.,
and entered proceedings at once to re-
cover. Jonas at first tried to compro-
mise, but this offer Charles Indignantly
rejected. II want the world to see, -
he said, "that though punishment for
a cowardly. wicked deed be long de-
layed, it is sure to come"
And perhaps the social and CONNER
cial world in which these two men
moved never had more vivid illus
tratien of this truth. The business that
had been built upon fraud and a
wrong crumbled away as if touched by
some whitening blight. The court
awarded Charles Day principal and
full interest, and subsequent action
for defamation gave him in reparation
for his fifteen years slandered name,
$50, 900.
But by that time the firm of Jonas
Terry was unable to meet such claim.
He shut his doors in dishonor, and fled
in the darkness of night Srom the thou.
sands whom he had robbed.
1T is a great punishment, said
Josie. sorrowtu!ly; land he has four
little boys"
1T was great crime, Josie; and the
wrong to my purse was the least of the
wrong"
But Mrs. Terry, sitting in hel
wrecked home, took different view ol
the case. Charles Day is entirely tc
blame," she said; Ibis weakness anC
laziness threw the temptation in
Jonas way. It is the weak men who
make the wicked ones.'

SANG Ills OWN SWEET SONG.
1t Touched a Soldiers Heart and Payne
and His Friends Were Released.

John Howard Payne, the author OF
"Home, Sweet Home" once saved him.
self and friend from Imprisonment
by the singing Of his famous song.
This is the story, substantially, as it
was related by John Ross. the Indian
chief, and published recently in the
H1diGsa ArvoG, printed at Tahlequah,
l. +.
When the Cherokee Indians were
being removed from Georgia to their
new reservation west of the Mississippi
river. Payne spent few weeks at the
home of John Ross, a lifelong friend,
head chief of the tribe. Several promi-
nent Cherokee were in prison, and
that portion OF Georgia was secured by
armed squads of militia. One day as
Payne and Ross were sitting before
the fire in hNt, the door opened sud-
denly and eight militiamen entered.
Ross and his presumed accompllce,
suspected of influencing the Indians to
cause trouble, were summarily arrest
ed and taken off on horseback. Rain
was falling. The journey lasted all
night. Just after midnight, in order
to keep awake, one of the soldiers be-
gan singing Home, Sweet Home"
"Ah," said Payne sadly, Il never ex-
pected to hear that song under such
circumstances as these"
Il guess not" his escort answered
indiferently, "but l wasn't singing
that for YOU"
"Do you know who wrote that
song?"
"No.. Do you?7
yes" said Payne. Il did"
"Of course you did," laughed his
companion with an oath. III bet you
don't even know the words.
Payne slowly began repeating the
words of the song, reciting the whole
of it.. Then he sang it. The surround
ings naturally heightened the effect.
AS the last words of the melody died
away the soldier said kindly:
IF you didn't write it. you can sing
it as we'll as the man that did write
it,"
"He really wrote the song" said the
Indian chief. THAT is John Howard
Payne"
The soldier was still skcptical, but
had, at least, been touched by Payne's
singing of the song.
"Whether you wrote it or not" he
said, you shall not SO to prison if |
can help it."
And, much to the surprise of both
Ross and Payne, they were released at
Milledgeville-then the capital of the
statement day, after brief examna-
nation. The soldier had told the story
of the song, and Payne was subse-
quently treated with especial respect
and liberality.
That song" the Indian chief often
declared subsequently, saved both Of
US from insult and mprisonment, or,
perhaps even worse treatment. | had
heard Payne sing it before, but never
as he sang it that rainy night on our
way to prison at Milledgeville."

Baron Rothschild's Business Maxim

The elder Baron Rothschild had the
walls of his bank placarded with the
following curious maxims:
Carefully examine every detail of
your business.
Be prompt in everything.
Take time to consider, and then de-
eide quickly.
Dare to 60 forward.
Bear troubles patiently.
Be brave in the struggle Of life.
Maintain your integrity as sacred
thing.
Never tell business lies.
Make no useless acquaintances.
Never try to appear something more
than you are.
Pay your debts promptly.
Learn to risk your money at the
right moment.
Shun strong liquor.
Employ your time well.
Do not reckon upon chance.
Be polite to every body.
Never be discouraged.
Then work hard and you will be
certain to succeed.

A Premium on Youth.

@ "Mamma, when you grow old, will
you look like little grandma" asked a
little boy Of or years Of his pretty
young mother.
Yes, dear" answered his mother,
"if you mean to ask if my face will be
wrinkled and thin and shall have lost
some of its fairness. Yes. I shall
grow to look as little grandma does.
Why do you want to know, Henry?"
We'll, mamma, I'll try hard, but I
am afraid can't love you then as well
as do now"
There is something in this trifing
incident that, in spite of all reasoning,
will sadden, for the child told frankly
that which those who have grown even
TO middle age must count as true
there is always premium on youth.->.

THIS NOBBY SUIT FOR 81.

But now all was changed. His head
was turned sideways.
The proprietor made an eXamina-
tion and pronounced that some of the
careless clerks chad broken Bob's neck"
for all tailors' dummies are named
to inGuish one from the other.
Nothing more was thought of the
thing at the time. But now Baxter
street knows Bob broke his neck him
self so he could bask IN the sunny
smile of the new conner.
When the time came around to
change the sign to --latest Fall Style,
$685." a change was made in the or
der of the figures. Then another sur
prising thing happened. Bob fell
down. 4, Every means at hand was
tried, but he could not be kept up
right on his pedestal until put back in
his old position near the Indian girl,
where, with neck awry, he gazed all
day, standing solid as rock, into the
the fair face of his charmer, and so it
was the clerks jested among them
selves that Bob was stuck on the cigar
sign.
And even the burly "barker" took
an interest in the inanimate romance
and refrained from humiliating Bob
by whacking his legs with his rattan.
Time passed. The infatuation was
known, but it was an old story and
hardly mentioned.
But two weeks ago strange thing
happened. 1t was late Saturday night.
A rain-storm had come up and the
Bowery seemed deserted. The bark
er" was joking with the clerks in the
store, for it was closing time and busi-
ness was over. Then the proprietor
ordered that the figures, safe from the
storm by an awning, be taken in. The
"barker" ran to execute the order. He
came back pale and frightened. "Bob's
gone" he blurted.
An investigation showed he spoke
the truth. Bob was gone, so was the
Indian girl. The first thought was
theft. But the policeman, under an
awning just above, laughed at this.
He had been standing there an hour.
he said. Besides. they couldn't have
been taken away save in a wagon, and
no wagon had stopped near the store,
he could swear to that.
Here was q puZzier. Baxter street
shook its head. "They've gone Off"
was the general verdict, and Mrs.
Cronhein, who told fortunes, gave
long account of a statue on 4 fountain
near Hesse-Cassel, in the old country,
that used to weep like a woman on
stormy nights.
Finally the cigar-store man, who
was much put out at the loss of his
sign, received word from Hoboken
that the police had found the figures
in an old canalboat lying there. The
proprietor of the clothing store went
over in the wagon to bring them back.
He started when he read the name
Emma d.. of Syracuse" on the stern
of the dismatled old boat. 1t was the
same one that brought the Indian girl
from Troy five years before.
In the old cabin lay the missing pair
close together, as if embracing. Bob's
gorgeous suit Of clothes was gone, but
Bob's face seemed smiling as he re-
posed in the company of the one he
loved.
And no matter what YOU you say,
bringing the fact of the 81 suit as evil
dence of theft, Baxter street still be-
lieves it an elopemeut planned by the
Indian girl. And Bob and his bride
now stand side by side the object of
superstitious awe to all that know this
tale.-N Y. World.

BOB AND HIS BRIDE.
A Strange Story of a Tailor's Dummy and
Cigar store Indian Maiden.

A strange story comes from the Bax-
ter street region Of the elopement of
clothing-store dummy with cigar
store Indian maiden.
Here is the story as it is told and
stitious residents Of Baxter street.
On Park Row, just above Baxter
street, there is an old established cheap
clothing store. 1t is the regulation
Bowery clothing store, with dark re-
cesses behind and vociferous barker"
in front. Then, too, there is the row
of grotesque papier-nache dummies
arrayed in loosely tapping garments
of startling style and colors. Next to
this store stands little old cigar shop
that has done business in this spot
since the days of Mayor Fernando
Wood.
The proprietor of this store happaned
to be in Troy some five years ago.
During his stay there he ran against
a cigar store that was being sold out
by the Sheriff. 1t was new store and
the New York tobacconist was struck
with the beauty of the radiant Indian
maiden, glorious in red and gilt, that
stood at the door of the dismantled
store and mutely appealed to the
passer-by to come inside and revel in
cigars, tobacco and cigarettes. He
bought the figure bargained with
canal boatman to bring it down for 81
and upon its arrival installed it at his
store door on Park Row.
Then a remarkable thing happened.
The dummy at the end Of the line, the
representative Of a pop-eyed young
man, with black mustache and an
impassive countenance, was seen to
turn his head and gaze wistfuily at the
new arrival on his right hand. Here
tofore the dummy had been we'll
conditioned representative of his class,
who had stood bolt upright and gazed
out straight before him, seemingly un~
conscious of the legend on his breasts
