GREAT AT A FIRE.
The Way One Man Made His servic

The Way One Man Made His Services
Invaluable.
In Lisbon Falls lives a most estima-
BILE and levcl-heatled business man Of
wide experience and sagacity, says the
Lewiston Journal. He has one failing
and that is a lively one-he gets 'rat-
tied" whenever there is fire. This
has 50 often been proven by experience
that some mistaken folks have hitherto
wished that he wouldn't turn out when
the fire bell rings, but they don't do so
any more.
Some time ago they had fire. and
this business man was there. He
hustled into his clothes, prepared to
rush forth and save things, when he
found that some one had locked him in.
He made grand sally for outdoors.
and he got there, whether by stratagem
or force, we don't know. And now
comes the yarn the boys tell about him.
We don't vouch for it. They say that
as soon rs he appeared on the scene of
the fire he began to boss it, and the way
he made things hum was lively. It was
do this and do that" Here you,
give us some water here" "Here you,
what you wasting water for? Timber
up. Hooray. Tiger!"
Water was scarce, the boys say. and
about all they had came from well by
a pump. The Lisbon Falls man got an
AK and became SO excited. with the fire
and the crowd, and particularly at the
possession of the ak, that he cut the
pump down and kept the crowd at bay
while he did it. The boys have had
good laugh about it ever since, and no.
body was hurt. They had such lively
time at this fire that they can't get
along without him after this, and they
will feel it a personal loss if he doesn't
turn out at every alarm.

THE ROOEED LIZARD.

one of the Fierce Monsters of the Rem
lillian Age.
The names that have been invented
for some of the animals that inhabited
the earth in long past ages are almost
as extraordinary as the extinct crea-
lures that they designate, says the
Youths Companion. Yet these names
cannot be said to lacl, fitness. Take.
for instance, the "stegosaurus, an ami
NAL OF the Jurassic age which has been
described by Prof. o. c. Marsh, and of
one species of which he has lust com.
pleted an ideal restoration; the name
exactly fits the extraordinary beast
that bears it.
Stegosaurus is formed from two Greek
words siege, roof, and sauros, lizard
and means rooted lizard. These,
however, did not resemble the little
lizards familiar to us In our day, but
were huge creatures eighteen or TWEEN.
ty feet in length and dozen feet tall
at the center of their sloping backs.
They were covered with a dermal or
skinlike arnor of a tough. horny char
acter, very strongly backed with
massive bony plates and spines. Upon
the tail were four double pointed pro.
lecting spines of great strength, which
Prot. Marsh thinks were used for of.
fensive purposes.
Similar indications of the powerful
weapons and effective means of self
protection which nature furnished to
the enormous beasts of the reptilian
age are found in the remains of other
extinct animals of that time. They
were clearly cut out for fighters.

FAITHFUL DOGS.
The Story of Ono That Has been rmmor.
taIizetl

or
taIized.
Poets have always loved dogs, saws
Harper's Young People. In this poets
and boys resemble each other. Walter
Savage Landor was devoted to his dog
Giallo, and Byron's epitaph upon his
dog Boatswain we all remember:
To mark friends remains, these stones
arise;
lnevcr had but one, and there he lies"
Cowpcr was very fond of his dog, and
we know how Charles Lamb, who was
a prose poet, loved his Dash, and how
Mrs. browning appreciated the little
Flush to whom she indicted o poem.
The earl OF Shaftcsbury kept his noble
collie in his library with him at all
times, ard Samuel Rogers always
walked out with his dog. Scott declined
an invitation to dinner when his dog
died, saying that he could not accept on
account of the ''loss of an old friend"
Wordsworth and Scott both celebrat-
cd in their poems the farnous old
Gelert. This dog, II dccrhound, was
given by King John to his son-in-law
Llewellyn, who kept him at his hunt
ing lodge, in the ncighborhood of the
Welsh mountain Snow6on. Gelert was
missed one morning from the hunt by
his master. Llewellyn, upon his re-
turn to the lodge, SOW the dog, and dis
covered that its mouth was bes,neared
with blood. Concluding that the dog
had devourcd his child, the infuriated
master slew the poor animal. Upon in
vestigation, he discovered dead wolf
by the childs cradle, while the child
was safely and soundly sleeping. The
brave dog had saved Llcwcllyn's heir
from the wolf. A monument was erect
cd to the faithful creature, which bears
the namc of Beth-Gelert.

ORIGIN OF THE DIAMOND.
Geolocists Cannot Read tho History q
tho Gem.

Geolocists Cannot Read tho History of
tho Gem.
This is still one of the mysteries of
geology. When the South African
fields were discovered there was mucl,
astonishment to find the gem in a series
of minerals quite different from those
in which it had been hitherto found in
India and Brazil, says Good News. In
stead of lying beside tourmaline, an
atase and broolsitc it was mingled with
a breccia of magnetism rocks which
had evidently been pushed up from be-
low, and great variety of minerals,
such as diopside, mica, zircon, ,corundum,
were embedded along with it. Some
have supposed that the diamond was
originally formed where it is now
picked up, and the presence of carbu-
retted gas and carboniferous rocks are
in favor of the idea, but on the other
hand the broken condition of some of
the stones, and other facts, make it far
more probable that the diamond has
been elected from deeper source. Ac-
cording to M. Daubree, the well-known
French mineralogist, the diamond issues
from the infragrantic regions of the
earth's crust, where periodot is prevail
ent; for it arrives at the surface along
with that mineral and certain serpen-
tine masses which result from the
transformation of the latter. The imi-
eation of this gem has reached great
perfection A material named Strass,
after it's German discoverer, which is
made from rock crystal, broacic acid
and caustic potash, purified by alcohol
is now used for the artificial gems.
They are mostly made in Switzerland.
