Wouldn't Keep or the Grass.

Two nice old ladies were walking in
Central park just when the grass was
in its first spring freshness, and, leav-
ing the path, they wandered off upon
the turf, where they were soon espied
by sparrow policeman, who bore
down upon them with dignity that
only policeman can display. "You
must get right off this grass, ladies, -
said he, severely. Then one of the old
ladies turned and faced him. II don't
mean to get off this grass" she said.
81 have been paying taxes in this city
for the last twenty-five years, and 1
have helped to pay for this grass, and
now I mean to walk on it, She
turned around placidly and continued
her stroll. The policeman turned
around to see if anyone had witnessed
this defiance of the law. and, seeing no
one, INDUCED in large and expansive
grin, and then went on his way, leav-
ing the old ladies to their own desires

Running Away of 3O-Month- old Boy.
Great precocity showed a boy OF
only 21z years. whose parents, residing
at Berlin, had taken him with them on
a visit to Potsdam. One morning the
little fellow disappeared Inquiries at
the depot found that the boy had
taken a train to Berlin, the conductors
believing him to belong to some pas
sengers and allowing him to pass. A
telegram was sent instructing the po-
lice at Berlin to arrest the baby on his
arrival, which was done. The mother
went by the next train and took her
little deserter back to Potsdam.

AMUSING EXPERIMENTS.
Tricks Which Apr""r Easy, but Are in
Reality i,:fficult.

Tricks Which Apr":r Easy, but Are in
Reality difficult.
1t seems very easy trick to sweep
q cent out OF the hand, but if done
fairly it is really difficult, says the
Youths Companion. Open the hand
naturally and place the cent on the
palm, then ask someone to brush it
out with whisk- broom.
After repeated efforts it will proba-
bly, be suspected that the cent is fast
ened in your hand in some way. In
order to prove that it is not, let the
sweeper place it on his own palm, and
he will find it remains as immovable
there as when he tried to sweep it
from the hand of the other person.
A few persons have flat palms. The
cent may easily be swept Off from such
palms. but they are not common.
1t requires not little patience to
pick up an apple with a spoon. Place
large, round apple. stem up, on a
smooth floor; then try to take it up
with spoon. The very effort of try
ing to get the spoon under the apple
starts it rolling, to the amusement of
the on-lookers. If done quickly
enough, the apple can be taken up
while in motion; but the proper way
is to wait until it ceases to roll. and
then carefully push the spoon far
enough under the apple to get the
center of gravity over the spoon. when
there is no difficulty in picking it up.
How to cut an apple and not break
the skin: Thread a needle with strong
thread. Insert the needle just under
the skin of the apple take stitch and
carefully draw the, needle and thread
through to within six or eight inches
of the end. Then insert the needle
again this time in the exact hole it
was withdrawn from.
Continue the stitches in this man
ner around the apple Withdrawing
the needle the last time through the
first hole made. The thread is entire
ly around the apple now. concealed by
its skin. Take firm hold of each
end of the thread and holding both of
the ends well together to prevent tear
ing skin. pull gently.
The thread cuts its way slowly
through the apple until it is in two
pieces, when the thread is withdrawn
through the tiny hole made by the
needle
If this trick is done carefully enough
the breaks in the skin will not be dis
cernible on the closest inspection. In
deed, the only convincing proof that
the apple Is cut in half will be to pare
a narrow strip of skin where the
needle and thread have travelled when
the apple will fall apart.

The Crucifix of Mary Stuart.

When Mary Queen of Scots, on Feb.
IL: 1887, was led to the scaffold she
held in her hands a precious crucifx,
which has changed hands many time
since that date. The last owner of the
greatly esteemed relic was the German
poetess, Countess Hahn Hahn, who left
1t at her death to the cathedral in the
city OF Mayence, where it has lately
been deposited. 1t is no longer perfect,
number of small pieces having been
broken off and lost, but the genuine
ness OF the relic has been proven be-

OPIUM SMUGGLERS,

Very Little Honor Among Thieves of
Any Kind.
-Four years ago an opium-smuggling
syndicate, founded in San Francisco
by Whaley & Gardner, was concerned
in Chinese certificate frauds, but
managed to escape the laws clutches.
They bought the yacht Halcyon, which
was the swiftest craft of her kind on
the coast They ran in much opium
near San Francisco, but when the
chase became too hot they selected
Hawaiian Islands as place for land
ing the drug. There, last year,
Whaley landed $50, 600 worth of opium
after narrow escape from shipwreck
on the Japanese coast. Then he took
the yacht to Victoria B. C.
Whaley returned to Honolulu, to
sell the opium, promising to come
back to Victoria and divide with
Gardner and other members of the
syndicate. After waiting several
months they sent Gardner down to the
island. A letter has been received
from him with woeful tale. Whaley
had sold all the opium for a good
price, but he is now engaged in squan-
dering the money at the Queens
Court and refuses to divide with his
partners. There is no law by which
Gardner can reach him. so that the
smuggler syndicate loses large profits
that they expected to handle.

HE HERo,NEs OF SCOTT.
Sixteen Out of Thirty of the Fair Ones
Under Twenty.

Sixteen Out of Thirty of the Fair Ones
Under Twenty.
Out Of thirty of Sir Walter Scott's
heroines sixteen are described as I'M
der 20. Of the other fourteen six are
undated. This leaves us eight, three
of whom are set down as over 20; two
start at one side of the line and are
carried over to the other; two are by
implication rather than by the inten-
zion of the author taken out of their
"teens," and one, Amy Robsart, is q
heroine ''of an uncertain age" since
she is historically q middle-aged ma
iron and fictitiously a youthful bride.
Of the six undated, the presumption
is altogether in favor of the earlier age.
A member once entertained the club
with the statement that. nearly all
Scott's heroines are motherless.
They are girls who had grown up in
the companionship of unclcs or
fathers, older men, and with an early
responsibility of thought and action.
They have had to plan their own
wardrobes and decide upon their own
conduct toward their lovers. Some of
them have been behind the scenes of
stirring political events. Nearly all
have been thrown into situations
where they had to think for them
selves, to act with decision and in
general to fulfill the whole duties of
heroines. The heroines of Scott are,
some of them, only lay figures, but,
at least SO far as they have character,
they are women, and they justify the
deeds which are done to them.

QQininG and Pe.rQ-la.
Two Great Malarial RemeT,,
Compared.

Nothing is more clearly demonstrate
ed than that there are two distinct
forms of malaria, which, for the want
of better names, may be denominated
acute and chronic. 1t has been recent
ly shown that the parasite which causes
malaria are different in the acute and
chronic forms. The acute form is
commonly known as fever and ague,
or chills and fever. This form of the
disease is too well known in malariou
districts to need description, and is
generally durable by large doses of
quinine, though this is not so favorable
a remedy as Pe-ru-na. The chronic
form of malaria is. by no means, so
we'll understood, us the symptoms are
hardly ever exactly alike in any two
cases, and it is rarely, if ever, durable
by taking quinine. Each case presents
slightly different symptoms, the most
common ones being dull headache, sal
low complexion, furred tongue, bad
taste, poor digestion, shivering feel
ings, hot flashes, cold feet and hands,
and constant, tired feelings.
Quinine will not cure cases of chronic
malaria as above described. Pe-ru-na
is the only specific for such cases. Pc
ru-na is sure to cure, leaves the system
with no arrangement, and produces
no drug habit hard to leave off, which
quine will do.
Pe-ru-na is for sale at most drug
stores, accompanied with directions
for use; but those who are using it
should send for the Family Physician
No. l, a treatise on malaria. Sent free
by The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company, Columbus, Ohio.

Rattan and Willow.

Strange as it may seem, many people
imagine that rattan and willow
furniture are the same. But visit to
the works will show radical diff
ference between them, as both rattan
and willow goods are made there.
The rattan is the Chinese Importation,
brought direct from Singapore, and is
reed susceptible of bending double
without even cracking. It possesses,
beside this, great frmness and strength,
and chair of rattan could be thrown
from an express train and picked up
intact. Rattan is therefore used for
such articles as baskets and lighter
ornamental furniture. Each has its
use, the rattan. however, being better
adapted for working up into intricate
designs SO eagerly sought in modern
artistic furniture.
