A DELIGHTFUL POISON.
So Wine Was Called by The Persian who
Accidentally Discovered 1t.

So Wine Was Called by The Persian Who
Accidentally Discovered It.
Wine is reputed to have been dis
covered by Jemsheed, the founder of
Persepolis, the famous capital Of an
cient Persia. He was a great lover of
grapes and in order to have them all
the year round had large quantities
packed away in enormous earthen jars
After standing for some time one Of the
Jars was opened and the
grapes were found in a
state Of fermentation. Jemsheed
imagined that the resultant liquid was
poisonous and accordingly had placed
in other Jars which were labelled
'poison" and conveyed TO his bed cham
Der. One Of the ladies Of the harem
happened one day to be suffering from
a severe headache. So great was the
pain that she was driven to the verge
of distraction, and, spying one Of the
vessels containing the grape juice, i'm
mediately opened it and took a
copious draught of the supposed
poison. The wine mounted to her
head, overpowered her senses and she
sank into a profound sleep from which
she awoke greatly refreshed. The
remedy proved so enticing that she
INDUCED in it whenever an opportunity
presented, until at last the jars were
emptied, says the Detroit Free Press.
Soon after the King, being DESTROYS
Of examining his poison, was
dumfounded at its sudden dis
appearance and Immediately instituted
an inquiry as to who had the audacity,
not TO say foolhardiness. TO tam
per with the royal stores. This result
ed in the discovery of the culprit, who
confessed and after explaining the de-
lghtful effect produced by the liquor,
was fully forgiven by his majesty. He
ordered generous quantity of wine to
be made, and, with his court, revelled
in the delights of wine drinking for
many years thereafter. From that
time to the present day the Persians
call wine Zeher-e- Kooshom, which
signifies delightful poison" thus per-
petuating the story of its peculiar
origin

Apart from their usefulness in larger
things, they are peculiarly close TO
their rural constituencies by reason OF
the interest they take in those minor

Unfortunately this is not always the
case. High editorial aspirations are
frequently chilled and noble Journal

linquency OF subscribers VINO fail to re-
member that an editor has stomach

Worse almost than the total neglect

unload upon the country editor cords

potatoes and cabbages in lieu of the
dollar of his fathers, for which his
Journalistic soul is yearning. That
under such conditions he maintains
his sprightliness and does his duty
with undiminished eheeIfulness and
ability is "a remarkable evidence OF
his strength of character as well as of
his earnestness OF purpose.
No other class OF citizens do so
much for the development and up
building and general prosperity of the
state, and no other class OF men moro
richly deserve the gratitude and the
liberal material support OF the gener-
al public than the editors OF the coun-
try press.

ON A BROADWAY CAR.


4 Man With More Respect for Health
Than for a Corporation.
The rain was coming down in blind
ing torrents. according to the New
York Herald.
A gentleman in n light Overcoat
boarded a Broadway car which was so
crowded that the people seemed hang
ing on by their eyelids. The only
place where the gentleman could gain
foothold was on corner of the
front platform. where the water from
the roof poured down his coat collar
in a continuous stream. while the
slanting rain drove in upon him with
drenching fury.
So the gentleman raised his UNI
brella.
Put down that umbrella. said the
driver gruhly. The driver was en-
veloped from head to foot in rubber
coat which would have resisted
small Niagara
but am getting soaked, " said the
gentleman showing the water stains
all over his thin outer garment
Cant help that SAID the driver
It's the company's rule aud you will
have to put down the umbrella or get
off the car.
The gentleman had already given
up his fare
You have taken my money and are
bound to protect me against the
weather. If you fail to do so l shall
protect myself do not propose to
get pneumonia for all the rules Of all
the fat company directors in this
CITY,"
The other passengers on the plat
form, who were more o. less saturated,
murmured their approval Of these
common sense views but the surly
driver from inside his waterproof ia
sisted that the man with the umbrella
must get off the car or be put of.
Now. suppose you try putting me
off, said the gentleman hanging on
to the umbrella with grim deter
mlnation.
Yes suppose yen try to put him
of, chorused the other passengers
and the driver. recognizing that the
hour for discretion had sounded, con-
tented himself with swearing at his
horses and glazing now and then at
the obstinate individual who could
not appreciate or would not that it
was vastly better for him to contract
pneumonia, consumption, or anything
else and die of the same IN the hos
pital than that one of the arbitrary
rules of a soulless corporation should
be broken.
