Quite Possible.

A physician had a presiding genius
in his culinary department Il negro
woman of a social disposition but Of a
somewhat irascible temper says the
Youths Companion. One night a
youthful adn.irer, who was accustomed
to make frequent evening calls upon
the ebony Maria in her Kitchen, pro-
longed his visit to a tiresome length.
After Maria had worn out every topic
Of conversation of which she was mis-
tress, she essayed to give him deli
cate hint as to her mental and physical
WEAKNESS by prodigious yawn.
Through some miscalculation as to the
stretching capacity of her mouth,
however, she dislocated her jaw in the
process. The doctor was hastily sum-
moned from above stairs by the dis
tracted young man, who stood diff
IDENTIFY in the background while Ma
ria's jaw was put into working order
again. The first use she made of her
recovered power of speech was to turn
wrathfully upon the trembling visitor
and say, in tone of whitening scorn:
"P'raps de mex time yo' goes a-callin, ,
an stays an stays till de lady gaps an
suffocates her jaws, yo'll TAX it for a
hint dat it's bout time to be a-gwine

Talking Heads Of BRASS.

Upon the authority of several pas
sages in history we are led to believe
that famous wizards and magicians
have constructed not less than six
brazen, human-shaped heads that pos
sessed all the faculties of speech. The
first of these was the work of Monk
Gerbert, who afterward became pope
with the title of Sylvester ii. The
head is said to have predicted that
Gerbert would be pope and that ne
would not die until he had said mass
in Jerusalem. After the first part OF
the prophecy had been fulfilled and he
had placed the papal tira upon his
head he resolved to live forever by
steering clear of Jerusalem. While
saving mass one day in Il small church
in the suburb of Rome Sylvester was
taken with sudden rigor. knowing
that his end was near he asked the
rector if the church had any special
name. Being informed that it was
popularly called "Jerusalem," he
closed his ewes and died with an hour.
The second "brazen-speaking head
was made by one Robert Grossetste,
an Italian bishop, who resided in En-.
gland between the years 1l75 and
1928. The third is said to have been
the result of thirty years labor on the
part of the astrologer Albertus Mag
nus. who was born in the year 1905.
Friar Bacon, who died in 1924, is
given credit of having made head
of brass which constantly repeated the
words: "Time comes, times here,
times past" The marquis of Vilena
.-13S4-14S4- also made a speaking head
Of sheet brass. A Polish disciple OF
Escotelo made the sixth and last men,
toned of the famous talking heads Of
brass. - philadelphia Press.

Coaching the Bishop.

The author of yorkshire Folk Talk"
tells an amusing story of an English
bishops struggles to master the Welsh
tongue. He had been appointed to
the Welsh see of St. David and upon
taking up his abode in Wales engaged
native Welsh scholar to give him in
struction in the language. The pro-
nunciation, and especially the ill,
bothered the bishop and the Welsh
man was almost at his wits end to ex-
plain the lingual process by which the
formidable sound was to be uttered.
At last a bright thought struck him
and, being very obsequious in manner
he thus addressed the bishop: "Your
lordship must please put your episco-
pal tongue to the roof OF your mouth
and then hiss like goose"

The Lightest Metal.

''Some people seem to think that
alniminum is the lightest metal in
the world" said a gentleman who
deals in all the fancy articles now made
of that commodity, "but that is a mis~
take. The specific weight of magne-
SUM is only one-third of that of alumni
mum, and is even more hard and dur
able. 1t is not as useful, however, as
it catches fire very easily, even at the
open hearth 1t is not destined to
crowd the popularity of aluminium,
although up to short time ago it
was even the cheaper of the two."-

Pilatre de Rozier.

The first @ronaut who fell victim to
his desire OF exploring the upper air
was Pilatre de Rozier who, few
months after the balloon was invented,
declared his purpose of ascending in
one and allowing it to take him
whittier it would. The French king,
however, frowned upon the project and
sent Pilatre word that the experiment
should be made by sending up two
condemned criminals. But Pilatre in
dignantly refused this offer. what"
said he, shall vile criminals have the
glory of being the first to navigate the
fields of the air? Never, while Pilatre
de Rozier draws BREATH"
He agitated the subject until the en-
tire court became interested in his IA
vor and then, at last, the king yielded
and PiAatre, in November, 1888, made
a perfectly successful ascent, Benia-
MIN Franklin was witness of the
spectacle and said, when some one
asked his opinion of it: Il have seen
child born which may one day be a
| man."
Two years after another aronaut
crossed the channel from Dover to
Calais and Pilatre, spurred on by ieal-
ousy, declared his purpose of crossing
it in the opposite direction.
His friends enaeavored to disuade
him from the project, believing that
the machine had not been sufficiently
perfected, but nothing could calm his
enthusiasm,
In June balloon was ready, but it
may easily be seen that Pilatre was not
very confident of success, since he
pushed back an army officer who would
have stepped into the car with him,
saying gently:
Monsieur, ia our present enterprise
we are sure of nothing. 1 cannot ac-
cept you if ] would have my conscience
| at peace"
The balloon rose majestically and
tended at once toward the sea. Pres
entity it turned but again drifted back
in the direction of the water. Then it
is probable that Pilatre endeavored to
| descend, in order to reach more fay
orable current of air. but in opening
the valve, according to one account,
he unfortunately made rent in the
balloon itself. Instantly he was dashed
to the ground, a distance of several
Thousand feet, and was found there,
dead and frightfully mutilated.

NATURES DYE WORKS.
T. Crystal Stream Blondines Hair and
Rouses Cheeks.

Had Fonoe de Leon, in his search
for the fountain of youth" wendell
his way to Little Sandy, Elliott coun-
ty, at a point about nine miles from
here, says; Greenup (Ky.) dispatch,
and plunged beneath the placid wa
ters of Red Spring, he might not have
had his days prolonged until now, bat
most certain it is his color would have
been changed to bright crimson.
On the Frese Hardin farm the Red
Spring is located, and for years has
been used by the old ladies in that vi
cinity to collar their carpet rags, by
the young ladies to color their dress
goods and rsbbons, and to blondine
their hair. The water of this spring
looks as clear as crystal, and is re-
markably cold at this season of the
year, much more so than the water of
wells in that vicinity.
This water is nauch improved at the
approach of Easter Sunday to color
eggs, and strange thing about it is
the difference in color upon articles of
different quality os substance. The
hair it blondines, coiSrs eggs, ribbons,
and dress goods a crimson red. The
color is permanent in both cotton and
silk goods dyed by The water. The
blonding of the hair generally lasts
about six weeks.
Soap applied to any articles dyed by
the water but strengthens the intensi-
ty of the color. People for mil es
around come and carry the water
away in bottles, jugs, and barrels, to
use in dyeing various articles. A
family by the name of Brand. whose
numbers are quite large, and whose
color has always been phenomenon,
is now explained, it is believed by
their always having used this water
for drinking and bathing purposes. So
long have they used it that it's quail
ties seem to have penetrated their sys-
TENS, and it's effects are seen in their
progeny to the fourth generation.
They have known of this spring for
years, and for a long time kept its
qualities secret, but it was divulged
recently by a young man who had
married into the family

THEY WALK ON AIR,
The Fakyahs Need no Solid Earth When
They Take Exercise.

The Fahyahs arc the greatest leg
erdemainists, necromancers and hyp-
notists in the known world.
One of their principal feats is walk
ing in the air. The Fahyah who per-
forms it lays fiat down with his face
toward the earth for minute or a
minute and half, then arises, and
forcing his arms against his sides,
standing very erect, deliberately
walks into the air as far as his power
of endurance will permit him, at times
reaching an altitude of from $50 to
400 feet, when he simply walks down
again.
At first, says writer in the Cincin-
natl Enquirer, could hardly believe
my eyes, and thought had indeed
seen miracle performed. 1t took me
over year to understand this feat, at
the end of which time | discovered
that it was accomplished by a thorough
knowledge of the electrical powers.
They understand thoroughly the
laws of changing their electrified form
from the positive to the negative by
inhalation, and by that means, just
the same as this universe is held in
place by a congenialty of those two
forces, SO they utilized them in the
performance of this feat.
To try and make it even clearer.
will 90 into the philosophy of the
trick; starting from the first principle
of electrical law, congeniality; two
persons are introduced to each other;
instinctively each party to the intro
duction knows whether there is feel
ing of perfect congeniality or not; il
there is congeniality, that proves
that one is the positive and the other
is the negative; if that feeling of CON.
genialty is wanting, then they both
possess similarly electrified forms, and
naturally are repellant.
Of course after associations may
ofttimes make two such similarly elec.
trified forms friends, but It's very rare
| ly the case; the same law precisely
| that governs the feeling of these two
men who have been introduced to eacl
other is that which controls and keep:
! the universe in place.
The world is supposed TO be 25,00(
miles in circumference, 5000 miles
more or less, in diameter; it revolve:
once around the sun in year.
That is a pretty rapid rate of speed
it must be admitted, and naturally
some force of electricity must bt
evolved; call it positive Then if the
world is positive space must be mega
tive; otherwise one would be repellan
to the other and we would not hole
| our place in the terrestrial armament.
Now, if the world does hold it's place
| by that law of electrical eoneenialty
why is it not possible for the man wht
possesses the knowledge Of changing
his electrical form from the negativ,
| (Which we who inhabit the earth are
to the positive by process ct inhalation
which he does when he lies upon tn,
ground, and then walks into the same
space, by the same laws, that hole
that tremendous globe and all thu
other planets and stars in their place
That is the way, and the only way
by which the Fahyahs perferm this
| most wonderful feat.
