Judge Wilson, of Kentucky, is fine
lawyer, a purist in the use of English,
and withal very fond of joke, part, /
Iarly if it is not directed against himself.
Tom Roberts practices good deal be-
fore Judge Wilson, and rather prides
himself on being self-made man, and as
he has pushed his way to the front
without college education, he is apt to
look upon scholars as entirely "too fin
icky and theoretical.
Recently when pleading case before
his friend Mr.. Wilson said:
And now, may it please your Honor,
I'll conclude my argument tomorrow,
unless you will kindly consent to set late
enough to hear me out this evening""
Here was Judge Wilson's chance, and
he could not let it slip without notice.
Hens set, sir, and judges sit"
"Very well," laughed Roberts, NJ
stand corrected, and hope your Honor
will sit long enough to hear me out.
Not long after this the judge, whilo
giving an opinion, remarked:
"Under the circumstances, as stated,
do not think an action will lay"
Il beg your Honor's PARDON" said
Roberts, quick as a flash, "up in the
mountains whar 1 was ris we allow that
hens lay, and actions lie "
"And in saying so," responded the
blushing judge, "you have laid closer to
the truth than at any time since you
began this case.

Not Appreciated.

Like many other excellent things, the
inventive faculty may be sadly misused.
A skilful burglar is generally a mechan-
ical genius. An honest genius of an in
ventive kind invents lock; straightway
another inventive genius of a dishonest
kind picks that lock. A man, not burg
lar, but professed lock-picker, picked
subtle lock of bureau for me because I
had lost the key. The science the man
showed, the resource, the ingenuity,
formed study, and his efforts were soon
crowned with success. was struck by
the skill he displayed, but still more by
the philosophy. "They call the man
who invented that there lock, sir,
genius, and they say he's made a tre-
mendous fortune by it, but they give no
credit to them as has learned to pick it;
not bit of it! not they! and some of
them as can pick it they calls burglars and
gives 'em years of hard labor, though
they was just as clever as the lucky one
who set the thing a-going." While on
this subject. we will give hint how any
Que can make key fit a lock provided it
seems almost able to throw the bolt. If
he smokes the key in lamp and then
tries to turn the key in the lock he will
find when he withdraws it that some of
the lamp-black has been rubbed off.
These spots will indicate where the key
is too large, and repeated blackening and
filing will make it fit.

Among the birds which my children

more pleasure than ever expected. 1t
is blue jay, and he is the most cunning
plumed fellow you can think of. had
to clip his wings, because he would not
stay in cage, but likes to fiutter about
the house. He is not afraid of the dogs,
will hop around and about them, sit on
the head of big bloodhound and yell at
the top of his voice just for mischief.
He defies all the chickens if they try to
take some food away from him. l sus-
pect his terrible war cry scares them.
He will sit on our hands and shoulders
ard beg for food, but as soon as his ap-
petite is satisfied be takes what more is
offered him and hides it away in some
nook. Sometimes he will put it down in
my vest pocket OF under the collar of my
outing shirt. Water he likes exceedingly
we'll and shows signs of disgust if left
without his regular bath; and he will
jump in when the dishpan is filled with
fresh cool liquid-drink, dive, splatter,
and scream for joy. Then out he goes
to the sunny lawn and lies down on one
side first, spreading the opposite wing,
then he turns over to spread and dry the
other. He will also take dry sun baths
in the same manner.

There once lived in the City of Mexico
Frenchman known as Otavito Qittle
Octave), whose rogueries kept the town
in ferment. At one time he claimed to
have discovered a specific for the reju.
venescence of women, and, by means Of
sensational advertising, he succeeded in
gathering a clientele of forty or fifty
ancient danes, who were assembled, on
a certain day, tricked out with astro.
logical symbols, crucibles, alembics, and
all the paraphernalia of charlatanry.
The conjurer presented himself before
the ladies, and addressed them in fam
boyant language, ending as follows.
And now, senoras of my soul, it is need
full that the mystic ceremonies before us
be opened by the eldest one among YOU"
Then, addressing her whose appearance
seemed to indicate priority, he asked her
age. "Thlrty-seven years, senor," SIM
pered the beldame, who was, at least in
the seventh decade. And you, senora?"
"Thirty-six. And so on, until he had
got them down to a declared age of
twenty years, with maximum of thirty
seven. well, ladies all, you perceive
that, without further proceedings, the
miracle is accomplished, said Otavito;
"for the least gallant of men could not
call her aught but young whose years
are but thirty-seven-and you see for
yourselves that is the age of the Oldest
among you'll"

Electricity for Nothing.

A Frenchman has again come forward
with proposition for obtaining "elec-
tricity for nothing" 1t remains only
ior an American to improve this method
q little so as to throw in the usual
chrome in addition. The Frenchman's
proposition is, however, not unreasona-
BILE. Some years ago company was
started in France for obtaining electric
ity as by-product in the manufacture
of copper sulphate. They sold the cleo
tricity in accumulators. The present
proposition is to obtain sufficient current
for running few lights in private
house by means of the thermo-pile heat
ed by stoves used for warming the rooms
OF for cooking. AS such stoves must be
used in every house, he claims that the
electricity is obtained as by-product,
which costs nothing. If the miserable
little Paris stoves, which have a greater
effect on the imagination than on the
temperature, are sufficient to run an arc
light, an ordinary American stove ought
to be able to illuminate house as bright
as daylight by this method. One of tho
great difficulties experienced in thermo-
piles is in the melting of the solder at
The joints. To overcome this, why not
weld the two together electrically? This
ought to be far superior, and would
probably be quite as cheap, if not
cheaper, says Electrical World.

A disappointed aspirant to literary
honors asserts that even in the best pub
fishing houses manuscripts offered for
inspection are not read, unless the au-
thors are well known. This is pure nom
sense. How is publisher to pursue his
trade ENTHUSIASTICALLY, at all events
accepting manuscripts? AS for the well
known authors, the day must dawn on
which they cease to write, and if newer
writers are neglected meanwhile, there
will then be nothing left to publish. The
truth of the matter is that rejected con-
tributors can never acquiesce in the JUS
tice of their reflections they always at
tribute it to prejudice, or want of appre-
citation, OF neglect. Moreover, their
work has not had fair chance, they
think, unless it is read from title-page
to closing line" 1t never strikes them
that it is useless for the publishers to
wade further than the ordinary reader
will wade, yet he is a pretty good
judge of the limit of the public patience.
Some writers are conscious that they are
a little slow in developing the interest
Of their book "You will find" they
say, "my twenty-first chapter particu-
larly striking one." But how is one to
get through the twenty preceding chap.
ters? If the first chapter is hard reading
it may not unreasonably be taken IS
a sample of the whole, for it generally
contains the inexperienced writer's best
work, written before the flash of inspir-
alton has died out and left him in the
twilight of his own crude fancies.

A CURIOUS FIND,
a Large Quantity of Honey Discovered
in The Heart of a Tree.

Large Quantity of Honey Discovered
in The Heart Of a Tree.
A remarkable discovery was recently
made at the Cathays yard of the Taft
Vale Railway Company. A large elm
tree, grown in Worcestershire, was b3,.
ing cut up into timber, when. right il.
the very heart, cavity measuring eight
feet by seven and half inches in diam-
eter was discovered almost completely
filled with the comb of the honey bee,
together with squirrels skull. No
means of access to the hollow was dis.
coverable, neither was decay anywher
apparent, and around the cavity itself
no less than fifty "rings," each ring dc.
noting years growth, were counted,
the outer bark being, too, without a
flaw. The hollow was of uniform size
throughout, and presented the appear
apce of having been bored with an auger
and, great though its dimensions were,
it was practically filled with the comb,
proving that the bees must have been in
possession for several years. Empty
combs of the queen bee also showed that
they had been swarmed.
How the bees got there can only be
guessed, but it is surmised that squir-
rel once occupied decayed hole in the
tree, cleared away the decay, occupied
the cavity as its own, and there died
Then the bees entered into possession
and filled the hole with comb, when by
some means the entrance, which must
have been small, became stopped, the
large quantity of grub and fly being
taken as demonstrative that the nest
was not voluntarily deserted. Then for
fifty years the growth of the timber
went on. The entrance being absolutely
obliterated and the hole Theoretically
sealed, the comb was preserved from de-
cay for half century, to be atlast found
in the way described.

A FORsAKEN ROAD.
An Old Historical Highway Now in
Comparative Disuse.

An Old Historical Highway Now in
Comparative Disuse.
One of the most interesting links in
This country between the past and the
present is the old National turnpike from
Baltimore to the Ohio River Half q
century ago this was the great avenue of
travel and commerce between the East
and the West, but since the introduction
of railroads it has lost its importance,
and has gradually fallen, if not into de-
cay, at least into something too much
like neglect. In many places the coun-
ties through which it passes have disre-
garded its claims to attention, and it has
subsidized into state of dilapidation and
almost of ruin. The great flood of 1889
here and there did much damage, and it
is doubtful if some of these broken places
will ever be mended.
There is no longer the same practical
interest in preserving this majestic high
way which existed. although the care of
public roads is at all times one of the
most important civil duties.
Associations of deeply interesting char
acter relating to the early history of the
country cluster about the old National
Road. The most striking of these, per-
haps, is the story of Braddock's famous
and disastrous march; for his route to
the West, where his army met with mis-
fortune, and his own career came to so
melancholy close, lay almost directly
alongside the National pike, and the two
cross each other in number of places
The military student and the anti
quarian find pleasure in tracing the
course of the famous expeditions. There
is fascination in seeking to bring to
light again the nearly obiterated foot
prints of those who formed part of these
momentous undertakings, and in study
ing the vast difficulties overcome and OBJ
stacles surmounted. There has always
been among the Americans kindly
feeling for the memory of General Brad
dock, partly from the association of
Washington with the most melancholy
portion of his career. His faults were
those of hispeculiar education. Wrong
headed, obstinate and narrow-minded,
he was yet brave and warm-hearted and
strict as was his discipline, his officers
seem to have had a genuine liking for him,
For many years travellers have gone out
of their way to pay visit to the spot
where lie his remains.

Babies.

One "iving jewel" as the poet calls q
taby, "drops unstained from Heaven" at
every heart beat. They take wing and
fly back from whence they came one for
each minute of the day. From January
first to December thirty-first between
thirty eight and forty million living
jewels are dropped into this cold world.
There are more baby girls than boy
babies. The proportion of female births
to male births is as one hundred to
ninety. So that between two and three
million more girls are born into the
world each year than boys. There is al
ways surplus of women, and the extra
number of girl babies keeps up the sup
ply. If you are good at figures, get out
your paper and pencil and try this sum.
Here is simple problem in arithmetic:
A baby is born to-day Qs92). Now, sup
pose its ancestors had married at the age
of twenty one from the time of our Lord
-fifty-six generations - how many
grandfathers has that baby had? The
answer, in round numbers, will be three
figures, followed by fifteen ciphers. =,
