His General Eject.

During y trial which took place In q
New England city some years ago, the
plaintiff was undergoing a rather sharp
examination from the defendants at
toracg. The case was one of damages
claimed on account of severe bodily iu-
juries received by the plaintiff on a
railroad, due, thc.plaintiff claimed, to
the negligence OF the defendant rail-
road company's servants.
MI. C, the railroad company's
lawyer, was noted for his nervous
name in examining witnesses, and
cndcavoring to discomfort them. This
witness, however, determined not to
be sqnelchcd or confused by his oppc-
ncnt's counsel.
After becoming thoroughly provoked
by the attacks of the lawyer, he re-
monstrated.
MI. c." said he, II am an in

Whether out Of gratitude for this
tribute to his remarkable powers or
from a feeling that the general senti-
mont was against his method of ques-
tioning on thai occasion. it is said that
the lawyer was %noticcahly mild in Ills
further treatment of the witness with

neighborhood. This woman he de-
clared, had succeeded in getting hold
of a part of Susan's spirit and had put
1T in Il bottle, which was thrown into
the fire.
The only thing to do under the cir
cumstances wa to procure some of the
ashes from the fire, which were to DO

So Susan did as she was bid--got the
ashes by stealth. gave them to the
wise man, and paid him to remove the
spell from her and put it on the en-
envy. lie did SO, and, rs Susan told
mt, the person who bewitched her
hasn't had q well day since.m
"Ridiculous!n
Poor Susan had to pay the wise
man 800 for removing that hoodoo. and
she V feels any confidence that she
will not at any time be assailcd by the
mysterious influences which may be
invoked against her by ill-disposed
persons. As well rs | can find out,
such wise men and wise women make
their living in Washington bv going
about among the most ignorant Of the
colored people and informing them
that they are the victims Of magic and
spells, which can be counteracted and
removed for a money consideration.
During the talk ] had with Susan yes
tefday she dlscotfrsed ut great length
on the subject of luck, opposing what
she regarded as practical experience
to my incredulols theories"
What did she speak of in particu-
lar:?'

She called sharp luck She told me
that the best way TO fetch was to take
two pins, two nails and two needles
and stick them in the ground-the
needles with their points up and the
nails and pins with their points down.
Next | must name The two needles
after myself and the friend of whom I
was most fond, at the same time nam
ing the pins and nails after four Of my

ed. A Gay street merchant got off his
little snake yarn, which happened
when he was younger and lived in a
little state. He or some other fellow
was going along near a stone fence
when the tail Of a snake was observed.
The tail was grasped, but there was
another end to that snake, aud the
other end was evidently the business
and. 1t rose right up and came over
from the other side of said stone wall
and proceeded to interview whatever
1t was that it found tritling with its
tail, says the Westchcster Record. The
snake proved an immense black one,
and it at once wound itself around the
body of its assailant and trouble en-
sued then and there. The fight was a
prolonged one, and had not 4 man

snake would have squeezed the life out
of its victim. So fine y specimen was

Do You Wish
the Finest Bread
and Cake?

1t is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder is
the purest and strongest of all the baking powders.
The purest baking powder makes the finest, sweet
est, most delicious food. The strongest baking pows
der makes the lightest food.
That baking powder which, is both purest and
strongest makes the most %digestible and wholesome
food.
Why should not every housekeeper avail herself
of the baking powder which will give her the best
food with the least trouble?
Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift
or prize, CT at q lower price than the Royal,
as they invariably contain alum, lime or sui
phuric acid, and render the feod uawIolesome.
Certain protection from alum baking powders can
be had by declining to accept any substitute for the
Royal, which is absolutely pure.
