A secondhand bookseller had bought
at country sale some 200 or 300 vol
umes of handsome but unstable old SER
mons, books ON theology and the like.
Having placed a few Of these outside, a
stylishly dressed man entered the shop
and said, '.Pll take these books, and, say,
have you any more of this kind with
this shield on to themr pointing to the
bookplate attached, which bore the arms
and name Of q good old county family.
s'That box, sir, is full of books from
the same house." answered the book
seller.
Whats yer fgger for themY' inquired
the customer. .'See here, start back
to Chicago tomorrow. I'm going to
start libery thar, and these books will
just fit me, name and all. Just you sort
out all that have that shield and name,
and send them around TO the Langham
at Z sharp. I'll be around to settle up;
but see, now, don't you send any with
out that name plate, for that's my name,
too, and reckon this old hoss with the
daggers and roosters might have been
related to me some way. Waiter Ham

Kininr an Allirator wien Harpoona.

A small Indian village in South Amer
lea in which was staying was period
ically terrorized by one of its inhabitants
being carried off by q large alligator.
The natives became worked up to such
. pitch of excitement that it was re-
solved to kill the terrible visitor at any
cost. Accordingly two powerful men
were chosen to watch for it and destroy
it. One night they saw monster alli-
gator rise out of the river and climb on
a rock to rest.
Forgetting all about danger, they
waded in the river until they were only
q short distance away from it, when
they took true aim and thrust two har-
poons into its body. After struggle
they killed that terror of the village.
From the tip of his nose to the end Of
his tail he measured fifteen feet, being
one of the largest ever slain. The two
men who killed him were of course the
heroes Of the hour.-Interview in New
York Tribune.

1t takes patience TO succeed in estab-
fishing a foothold in the most desirable
combinations of men and women, and l
am often amused by those who tire of
the chase and seek to buy their way.
Such persons hire excellent cooks and
give dinners at which famous entertain
ers assist. They have cards printed,
with receiving days announced upon
them. They aim to leap into social rec
ognition with bound. Alasl the only
women who come to their houses are
the women who are in the same social
strait-women who smile upon one an
other and yet despise each another. It
does not work. They drink their own
wines and eat their own dinners, that is
all.
The surest way to succeed that know
of is to begin young and never rest or
marry until as q dancing man, or q
beau, or a wit, you have made your
self desired everywhere that your male
friends go. Then il you marry in the
best set to which you have the entree
you will start well on the road. Is it
worth the devotion of a bachelors life
and energy9 All, l don't know. judge
so from the scenes witness around me,
from the lives study daily. 1t must be
worth q great deal il it is worth the
anxiety and money and yearning and
struggle that men give to it wherever !

When young man marries his first

and for the longest number Of years.
Our homes ought to anticipate perma-
nence and have the common sense and
morals that win long continuance. There
can be no happiness like that of noble
home, no misery like that of merely
coupling together of man and. woman
for brief hard working and animal
existence. Every day should be lived
so as to add health, rather than TO en-
feeble and weary. You may be sure
that if you cannot rise in the morning
with clear head and pure heart, there
is little before you but disease and mis-
cry and discord. Mary E. Spencer in

Enrlishmen Arp Show.

Trains are not 30 punctual as in the
United States. The enormous traffic has
something to do with this, but am told
that the fault is somewhat due TO faulty
organization; that in fact the engine de-
partment is too entirely distinct from
the conductors department. There is
not on the engineer any great response
bility for being ON time, but there is on
him an immense care that his engine
shall show economical use Of coal, waste,
oil, etc. BY such return is he Judged,
and he is busy running an economical
engine while the passengers chafe and
the conductor is piacidly sitting IN the
"guardsvan," for he has no responsible
lty either for time. If station master
sends the train of Eve minutes late, It
b nobody's business to make it mp, and

that the desired tone is impaired by a

The Russians have made singular
discovery in Central Asia. In Turkes-
tan, on the right bank of the Amou
Daira, in a chain of rocky hills near the
Bokharan town of Karki, are a number
of large caves, which upon examina-
ton were found to lead to an under
ground city. built, apparently, long be-
fore the Christian era. According 10
the effigies, inscriptions and designs
upon the gold and silver money unearth-
ed from among the ruins, the existence
of the town dates back to some two
centuries before the birth of Christ. The
edifice contains all kinds of domestic
utensils, pots, urns, vases and so forth.
The high degree of civilization at
tanned by the inhabitants of the city is
shown by the fact that they built in
several stories, by the symmetry of the
streets and squares, and by the beauty
of the baked clay or metal utensils, and
of the ornaments and coins which have
been found. 1t is supposed that long
centuries ago this city, so carefully con-
cealed in the bowels of the earth, pro
vided an entire population with n refuge
from the incursions of nomadic savages
and robbers. Free Press.

PRICE ONE CENT



A. +. Walters, a young chemist and
electrician OF Jersey City, entertained
few OF his friends some nights ago with
= bit Of legerdemain that Hermann him
self might be proud Of. Seating one Of
the company in the middle of the room
the chemist produced mysterious look
ing black wand which he began to wave
about the head OF his subject. The face,
neck and hands of the subject, who was
Of very light complexion, instantly be-
gan to grow darker and darker until
they were very dark brown.
After the astonishment OF the specta-
tors had subsidized the young chemist ex-
planned that his magic was but the re-
suit of very difficult chemical reaction
that he had been working 20 obtain for
q year. He had washed the face, neck
and hands of the subject with trans
parent solution. Under his own arm he
had concealed small rubber bag of
gas, which was connected by rubber tube
with the black wand, itself hollow
tube, so that while waving the wand he
had elected the gas. AS soon as the gas
came in contact with the solution on the
skin dark brown compound resulted
from the reaction.
Mr.. Walters got the idea of his inven-
ton while watching the transformation
tricks in one of the Hanlon plays. His
first experiment he made ON the face OF
young German. 1t worked perfectly
as far as coloring the man was con-
cerned, but the black would not wash
off, and the German spent several un-
happy days trying to wear it off. But
now Walters has worked ON his COM
pound until it will wash off more easily
than cork black-New York World.

The wedding Finger.

How many women who fondly love
the golden symbol of their wedding VOW
know why they wear it on the third
finger Of the lefthand? That particular
digit was chosen because it was believed
by the Egyptians to be connected by a
slender nerve with the heart itself. And
these ancient worshipers OF Isis held
this finger sacred to Apollo and the sun,
and therefore gold was the metal chosen
for the ring. Detroit Free Press.
