yvhen tho Lnmp Is1pIodes.

Policemen and firemen are fro
quently called into private hou es to
put out exploding lamps or clothing
that has caught fire from an accident
of the kind. When lamp is blazing
ceiling high it requires considerable
nerve to take hold of it and hurl it
out of the window, but that is the
simplest and best way to prevent dis
aster. If that is impossible, on if the
burning oil has got on the carpet on
table cover, a-shovelful of sand or,
failing sand, of common soil will gen
orally do all that is necessary.
The same applies to any one whose
clothing is covered with oil and on
fire. If he can lie down and have
some soil shoveled on his clothes the
the fire will go out instantly, whereas
a dozen buckets of water would hurt
him much worse than the fire. A
bucket of sand standing in a cup
board in room where a coal oil
lamp is burned is a good precaution,
and may check at the start what
might otherwise be a most disastrous
fire. Interview in st. Louis Globe
Democrat.

A Johe on The ..Tbupderer. ;.

The death Of Mr.. Catty in London
has called TO mind the amusing trick
that was played on the London Times
years ago. This obituary notice appear
ed in The Times:
Died, on the Isl rst., Mr.. Magog Gait, of the
town clerks office. Guildhall. Sincerely re-
gretted.
Now Magog Gait was beautiful and
we'll known tabby called Magog, at
tached TO the town clerks office. Magog
lad departed this life. More fun was
derived from The Times announcement
than the mischievous clerks who sent
the notice had anticipated. The Mr.
Catty who has just died was the head
clerk in the office, and hundreds of peo-
pie who read the notice of Mr.. Magog
Cats death confounded tabby with the
head clerk, and condolences began to
pour in. Many people called to inquire
what caused Mr.. Catt's sudden demise.
Others left cards without inquiry. Many
letters of sympathy, applications for the
supposed vacant post and circulars from
undertakers began to pour in. Monu-
ment makers addressed letters to the
executors of the "late Magog Gait, Esq. -
The joke continued in various forms
for weeks, and "Magog Gait, Esq
even received touching memorial para
graphs about his "services to the cor
poration" in the provincial newspapers.
All these tributes were carefully col
lected and placed in scrapbook, which
is still in the Guildhall library. The
funniest feature of all this confusion
was letter from gentleman Of anti
quarian procliyities who wrote that he
was compiling awork on curious nomen-
clature and inquiring if it was by acci-
dent or otherwise that an employee of
the corporation had been christened
"Magog." The English newspapers are
now telling of the kind obituary notices
Mr.. Catty read Of himself when he was
supposed to be identical with the late
lamented Magog Catt.-New ork Sun.

"Sidebmns" are what the English
call whiskers and the Americans
side whiskers. They were worn in
flowing and picturesque style during
the war by General Burnside, and
came to be called after him, first
Burnside whiskers, then simply Burn

The first man who used the ex-
preston, Don't be a clam, should
be credited with a Bit of advice chock
full of wisdom Somebody is after
the clam in season and out, day and
night. 1t is devoured in soft shelled
infancy by fishes, sea fowl and crows,
is sealed in cans, made into stews
and chowders, baked in big piles on
the seashore, boiled in free lunch
barrooms and dug for fishermen's
bait.
The clam furnishes food for many
men of many lands, and also for
seals, polar bears, the walrus, foxes,
crows, gulls and fishes, and there
never was a bait, with the exception
possibly of porgy chum-i. O., ground
up porgies-that equaled the clam
for sea fishing. The clam is at home
on the Maine coast, thriving in the
mud of sheltered beaches between
high and low water marks. Cor.

Flying Five Kites Together.

On May 9, 1891, at Bergen Point,
N. j., sent up five kites, from two
to four feet in diameter, all held by
one string at the surface of the earth.
The altitude of the highest kite was
probably nearly mile, as roughly
calculated from the slant and length
of the strings. 1t is therefore clear
that the number of kites to be flown
is limited only by the strength of the
string, it's length, and the force and
steadiness of the wind. The various
ly colored kites fly one above another
with a very pretty effect. They look
like colored disks floating irregularly
at a great height, because each kite
is held at a slightly different angle
from every other, making differences
of position in the sky. William A.
Eddy in ST. Nicholas.

The Head of the Family Thought II
Wasn't Just the Thing.
Some people readily forget that they
were ever young, and never recognize
the fact that history is apt to repeat it
self in individual humanity as well as
in wider senses.
The parents stood gazing with frown-
ing brows at their daughter, while she
was trembling and weeping. Their
frowns deepened as the mother wiped
her glasses preparatory to reading a
letter found in the girls pocket. 1t be-
gan:
"Angel of my existence"--

don't mean to say it begins like that?

swnIloms In a Chimney,

A Norwich man who notes the arrival
of the birds in the spring was surprised
Tuesday evening to see with what facil-
ity thousands of swallows packed them
selves away for the night. For the past
ten days he has watched the swallows
as they have circled in midair at nigh
fall over the center of the city. Tues
day night there appeared in one flock So
many that they formed a cloud of birds,
and after circling about awhile the
leader started for the chimney on the
northeast corner of the Broadway school
house and the whole flock followed, fly
ing into the chimney till the last swal-
low disappeared, H. relating tAe. Incl
dent the gentleman said; II was amazed
to see them all go into a single chimney.
They formed large flock, and | 90 not

Saved by His Horse.

The Indian papers give particulars of
the murderous attack made upon Lieu
tenant Robertson, r. E., by Ghazi at
Gullstan. 1t appears that the former
was out riding and was joined by the
Ghazi, who was also on horseback. Both
entered into friendly conversation, and
shortly afterward put their horses to a
trial of speed, in which Lieutenant Rob
ertson outstripped his rival, when the
Ghazi, being short distance behind,
suddenly drew his tulwar and inflicted a
severe cash 'on Lieutenant Robertson's
neck and otherwise wounded his hand,
which he had raised to ward off the
Ghazis attack.
Lieutenant Robertson was brought
into Quetta and taken to the station
hospital, where he is at present being
treated, and there is every hope of his
recovery. The young Ghazi was ar
rested and brought into Quetta to be
identified by Lieutenant Robertson, and
it having been proved conclusively that
he was the individual who attacked him,
he was in consequence summarily tried,
found guilty of an attempt to murder
and sentenced to be hanged and his
body afterward burned The sentence
was carried into effect on Tuesday morn
ing
II is stated that when Lieutenant
Robertson fell off his horse and was ly-
ing on the ground bleeding profusely
the faithful animal protected his master
from further injury by kicking at the
Ghazi and attempting to bite him. But
for this remarkable behavior on the part
of Lieutenant Robertson's horse, it is
supposed that the Ghazi would have
probably hacked Lieutenant Robertson

The Oneen,s Cnnnnest.

During the Russo-Turlish campaign
Of 1877 many Roumanian soldiers were
wounded, and Queen Elizabeth-Car-
men Silva-who constantly visited the
hospitals, found that some of the patients
died because they chose death rather
than Disagreement. 1t occurred to her
that if one yielded others would follow,
and one day, when the surgeon was turn
ing sorrowfully away from an obstinate
patient who could be saved only by an
operation, she approached and added her
own entreaties.
Still the soldier reiterated that, if his
leg were amputated, he should only be
taken for a mendicant, like the wretched
outcasts of the Carpathians.

The largest olive orchard in the
world belongs to Mr.. Ellwood Cooper,
of Santa Barbara county, California.

of it which are devoted to the culture
of English walnuts, japanese persirn-
