Plenty of Water Necessary to Health.

As the waste in animal food in those
who lead indolent lives is carried off 10y
the kidneys, it is very desirable that
they should be kept we'll flushed with
plenty of water, for pure water is to the
kidneys what fresh air is to the lungs,
and taken in the early morning, prefer
ably as hot as it a be slipped, it washes
away the unhealthy secrctions thathave
accumulated in the stomach during the
night. and stimulates it to healthy ac-
ton, and then. passing on through the
system till it reaches the kidneys, carries
away 10y their aid the uric acid. govt poi

have no fixed habitation in the body at

English Boys and the Public School.

In England, while a boy is still in the
un~reasoning age Of childhood, good ma
tured people will ask him playfully
what he is going to be. At a little later
stage the inquiry takes another and
more serious fOrm-"What school are
you going to-" There is no playfulness
in the question now. Hereby hangs a
whole social history. In II family the
tradition is for Elton, in another for
Rugby; and to these traditions father
and Sol are as a rule absolutely loyal,
except under especial emergencies Of
typhoid or scarlet fever. In after life
he meets with the question, "What
school were you att And here again
he is apt to feel at a disadvantage if he
cannot fasten upon me of the important
public schools the credit or blame Of his
youthful training.
1t matters nothing that he was only
there for half a year, that he never rose
above the lowest form, that he was
logged half a dozen times in as many
weeks, that he was promptly expelled
for outrageous Observation-Disclosures was
at a public school, he has the cachet Of
an English gentleman. TIC have been at
the university IS as nothing compared
with this. Many a man is compelled
by army examinations Or by business
opportunities to foregO the pleasures Of
the alma mater. With the public school
it is otherwise; to this they must all

Appealed to His Vanity.

During the agrarian riots, which dis
turbed England in 1882, a mol Of rick
burners and machine breakers appeared
at the old mansion of two elderly maiden
ladies. The walls of the hall were deco
rated with suits of armOr and antique
weapons-pikes, halberds swords and
b~attlcaxes. The mob clamOred for the
weapons. The ladies refused their de-
mands, and when the mob seemed ready
to resort to violence Miss Betty, the
elder of the ladies, went up to the lead
er, a hideOus looking man, and said:
You, too, of all the people in the
world? I'm not surprised at these poor
misguided creatures. But that such a
good looking, intelligent man as you
should attack two defenseless women
does astonish me! You are the man
should have looked to for protection.
But YOU are not the man | took you for!
Never again will | trust to good lOOks!!'
There as no standing up against that
compliment. The man took off his hat,
and said: Come, old lady, we amt SO
bad as all that! We would not harm a
hair of your head!'
NO; | know that" retorted Miss
Betty. You can't; | wear a wig
The mob roared with laughter and re-
tired without another word.-Yoqthis

The French and Thirteen at Table.

Among the French every precaution
is taken to avoid the seating Of thirteen
at a dinner. In many cases the host has
been known to dispatch messengers to
bring in a fourteenth friend to dispel
the supposed fatal charm. when by some
inadvcrtence or accident the original
number Of invited guests was reduced
to thirteen.
As an instance of the hold this super
stitiOn has on our Gallo friends it is re-
lated that several years ago a dinner was
given by a fashionable club in New York
to the officers Of a French frigate lying
in the harbor. Upon sitting down to the
table it was discovered that the company
numbered but thirteen. Another person
was vainly sought after to break the
spell. T~hcreIpon Il Of the officers
arose and left the room, thus leaving his
friends in the security of a safe dozen,
although denying himself a most enjoy
able and tempting repast.-Detroit Free
Press.

The Monkey Puzzle Tree.

At Il meeting Of the Royal Botanic so
ciety DR.. r. c. \. Prior presented ripe
seeds Of Arancaria imbricata, the mon
key puzzle tree Of Chill. collected from a
large tree growing in the open air at
Corsham, Wits. He mentioned that in
England the plant, though common, sell
dom ripens its seeds. 1t was first intro
duccd here 100 years ago by Mr.. Men
zies, a Scotch bOtanist, who accompa-
MED Nancouver's expedition III search
of a passage between the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans. In returning from their
attempt they put i'll at Valparaiso and
were Hospitality entertained by the vice
roy of Chill.
While dessert was on the table Men
zics observed some nuts lie had not seen
before. Instead of eating his share he
saved them, and taking a box of soil
back with him on board ship succeeded
in raising five plants, which he brought
to England, and these formed n stock
from which most of the large trees now
growing in various parts Of England
have Observation-Disclosures Ledger.

The observance Of Old World ami

The occasion of the greatest street dem

and the streets were scenes of turbulence

CURED in those days. OF recent years
all that sort of thing has disappeared.
The annual St. Patrick's Day parade
has dwindled down here to mere formal
tiles and lacks the element of enthu-
siasm. In many American cities it is
nc longer even formally observed by the
mass of Irishmcn. IN other respects the
same thing may be said of other nation
alities. A few dozen persons will make
q pretcxt of the queens birthday or the
Bastile day, or something of that kind,
to help out a pleasant evening, but there
is no longer any seriousness to it. All
we usually see is some signs Of a holiday

French or some other nationality, most

hoods. The fact is this country is get

flames Whitcomb Riley never will
forget his first experience as a platform
lecturer" remarked an old Hoosier at the
Grand Pacific the other day. 1T was a
good many years ago. Jimmy was eking
out an existence as a painter at that
time, and when times were dull and he
was out Of a job he spent his leisure mo-
nents in stringing together verses. Some
Of these were 50 good, in his own esti-
nation at beast, that he sometimes re-
cited them at little gatherings about the
ncighborhOOd.
But, unknown cven to his friends,
the embryo poet had rather lofty aspira-
tiOns and burned to launch out as a pub
lie entertainer. SO he began quietly
casting for an eligible opportunity to
try it on the dog
He was poor then-pOOr is no name
for it. In fact, he was generally in
debt, and though he worked hard never
seemed to have any money or a fair pros
peCt Of getting any. 1t will readily be
seen that il was not an easy matter for
Riley to realize his hopes under such
circumstances. At last, however, he
raised a little money! on a Job Of paint
ing and with it invaded a n~eighbOring
hamlet, where his fame had not preceded
him.
After considerable red tape he Sc
cured the privilege Of using the school
house for his entertainment. In fact,
the school house was the only available
J,l1cn ~, +bn yi1l1Crl FOR Cv1nl, n ,r.+lCrirr
Then he hung up a lot Of posters an
nouncing that James Whitcomb Riley,
the HOosier poet, would give one Of his
unique and inimitable entertainments at
the HamtOwn school house on the fol-
lowing Saturday night. These posters
were blank paper, decorated with char
coal instead Of printers ink, and Riley
spent n whole day in printing them.
Eat the last moment, however, a per-
feet delugc Of cold water was thrown
oyor the young poets aspirations by an
unexpected announcement from the
Hamtown school board. On the after
noon Of the eventful day the president
Of the board waited OH Riley, who was
nervously pacing his room at the little
excuse for a hotel, and informed him
that by an agreement entered into when
the school building was erected no en-
~tertainments were to be given in it I'M
less they were Of a public character.
But mine is to be a public enter
tainment, insisted Mr.. Riley.
ooh, no., it isn't asserted the town
dignitary. You are going to charge an
admission fee. That doesn't look like a
public aifair-dOeS it:
"'It isn't u free entertainment, to be
sure; but it is certainly to be public
maintained the poet.
"'NOt as we understand the term,
said the official. IN short, the only
way you can go on with the show is to
throw the doors OPEN
Here was Il pretty state of affairs,
but the question must be settled at once,
and Riley promptly accepted the horn
of the dilemma nearest him, and said
that the entertainment should be given
at all hazards and that no admission fee
would be charged.'-ChicagO Mail.

HOMESTEAD. Pa, Oct. 21.--At 2:3t
o'clock q. IN. Deputy Sheriffs Ferguson
and Cunningham discovered flames issu-
ing from the basement of the largest
boarding house in the town, conducted
by Mrs. o Neill, corner OF Third avenue
and City Farm lane. One hundred and
twenty live non-union workmen at the
Carnegie Homestead mill were sleeping
in the house at the time. The deputies
gave chase to a man who was seen rum
ming from the rear of the building
and fired several shots at him
but without effect. They then re-
turned and extingnished the fire.
They discovered that a quantity Of
oily waste, such as is used in packing
car journal boxes had been placed under
the rear end OF the house and was burn
ing fercely. A few moments would
doubtless have placed the fire beyond
control. Chief Deputy Sheriff Ritchie
from now on will place special guard
over every non-union boarding house in
