Not Wasted.

The Widow Jenkins lives in small
house at the edge of a Maine forest, In
the heart of which lies beautiful lake.
much frequented by summer tourists
The widow, assisted by her son Jake,
is accustomed to put up the visitors
horses. and to supply the visitors them
selves with meals before and after the
excursion to the lake. One day she saw
a party of four drive up with the guide.
and noticing that two of them were
ladies, she exclaimed 10 Jake quite au
dibly, Here's another lot o them eeJotsT
Mrs. Jenkins was a good cook, but
that day, for some reason. she set before
her guests plateful of cream Of tartar
biscuits which were of such leadhke
consistency that nobody could eat them.
She surveyed her guests with dark dis
approval as the meal progressed, and at
last swept the plate from the table and
saying, I'm sorry We can't make out t
eat what's set before ye," she left tho
room.
A slight gloom pervaded the rest Of
the meal, and Mrs. jenkins did not re-
appear. Ii was dusk when the tourists
reached the house again.
"Come night inI' called the owner
cheerfully from the kitchen door. "Set
right down to your supper; it's all ready
an waitin."
Much grstified by this change in the
demeanor of their hostess the party
seated themselves at once. The princi-
pal dish was an enormous Indian pud-
ding, and being exceedingly hungry
they ate it with thankful hearts. When
Mrs. Jenkins had seen the last morsel OF
it disappear she heaved sigh of relief.
There" she calculated as the COM
pany rose from the table, Il sh'd have

An Officers Tragic Death,

A lieutenant of the Twenty-fourth
regiment of Chasseurs, named Taverne.
met with most tragic death near the
port of Nice yesterday. His horse. q
big, fiery roam, which had been very
little ridden, became restive shortly after
leaving headquarters. While passing
the well known Chateau Smith the horse
took fright and bolted down an incline.
Some octroi officers saw this, but were
unable to arrest his progress. The Off
Ger managed to steer the animal around
the Nice port, but coming to rapid curve
in the road at a spot known as Rabau
Capen he lost all control The horse
rushed madly at wall, cleared it, and
both horse and rider were dashed over
the rocks into the sea below.
The admiral of the Mediterranean
squadron sent steam launch, four boats
and fifty men with grapnels to try and
find the bodies. They found key on
the rocks, which has been identified as
that Of the officers chamber in the bar
racks, and some hair of the horse stuck
to the rocks. Up to the present, how
ever, the bodies have not been recovered.
They have probably been taken out to
sea by currents. M. De Freycinet, who
is now in Nice, visited the spot to make
inquiries. The unfortunate officer, who
was only thirty years of age, was most
popular.-Pall Mall Gazette.

An Elephants Toothache.

The elephant in the Geological gardens
in Paris must be a very reasonable crea-
ture. He suffers from toothache, and if
in proportion to his size, he must suffer
a good deal; yet, while it is being stopped
and filled, we are told, he is exceedingly
patient, only "gently moving his trunk"
when the operation is particularly pain
full. A word of praise is also surely due
to the dentist. A man might have
earned the Victoria Cross and yet have
some misgivings when that trunk began
to wave. In the case in question it was
only employed ''to caress the operator" !"
by way of fee, when the proceedings
We're concluded; but it might have been
put to different use.
The report does not inform us whether
the elephant is placed in a chair with
his head we'll back, a position with
which most of us are only too well &C
quainted. There is little difficulty, it
seems, in inducing him to take laughing
gas, which he may think beneath his
dignity.-James Payn in Illustrated

Superstitious Wearers of Rings.

The use of amulets for disease seems
to belong to a past age, yet, in truth, su-
perstition is almost as rife today as in
the romantic times when people discov
cred fairy rings in the meadows and, by
every wandering stream, the footprints
of the water sprites. 1t hardly seems
possible that copper rings or inlaid rings
of iron or other base metal should be
worn today to ward off disease. Yet
there are wise people, men of affairs,
who would scorn to show superstition in
greater things, who are firmly convinced
that they owe immunity from disease to
some such token.-Exchange
