Essex county, Mass, has been noted
not only for its legal lights like Rufus
Choate, Caleb Cushing, Judge Story
and others, but also for its deputy
sheriffs, some of whom have served
many years.
OF one of these men, Daniel Potter,
many amusing stories have been told,
At one time he entered newspaper
Office in Salem, and addressing the only
scribe who was in sight said
II thought l would tell you that to-
morrow shall go where never went
before and can never go again"
The scribe, knowing his caller,
promptly gave it up" and then Mr..
Potter said:
at is into my eightieth year"
Some years ago these old deputies had
gathering at the home of q certain one
of their number in Gloucester. While
they were roaming about the house the
host called the attention of his guests to
an old clock. great favorite Of his.
He told his friends of his great attach
ment to this ancient timepiece and grew
quite pathetic at certain points in his
remarks, which he brought to close
by saying in voice full of emotion:
Gentlemen, / have wound up that
clock every night for more than forty
years"
He had evidently made an impression
on his visitors, when one old deputy
who had been carefully examining the
clock, turned the tide of feeling evoked
by the story by saying dryly:
"Well, l always did think you were
something Of an idiot! That's an eight
day clockr'-Youth's Companion.

In the greater concerns Of life there
are wonderful illustrations of the con-
fiicts of opinions. There are something
over 1900, 100000 of human beings in
the world. Among these are six va
rieties of religious belief; three of these
are said by one class to be false, and by
others three are said TO be the true re-
ligion. And yet every religionist, every
scctarian claims that he and she alone
are right. What our Chinese neighbors
say is true we say is false" We call
them "heathens'-they class us as .'out-
side barbarians."
What we English speaking people
think is the right and the true religion
is in a startling minority in human be-
lief or religious creditor there are
only some $50, 600, 600 Christians in all
the world. There are some 5000, 000
Jews, and they lave chung with singular
persistency in all ages to their religious
belief: it is seldom jew renounces his
faith; it is more seldom that a Chris
tian embraces Judaism There are
more than 400,000,O00 people who arc
pagans and Mohammedans.-

The scarfpin should always be worn
with the fiat, madeup scarf. There is
u place for its insertion, and by seeming
to hold it together ii attains a utilita-
rian phase, in that it is an aid in gloss
ing over the percentage of madeup sug-
gestiveness that is always more or less
associated with the initiative article.
The madeup fiat or puff scarf, if worn
without n scarfpin, discloses its arti-
ficiality in all the badness of it's me-
chanical inferiority. 1t is a curious
paradox in the fashions, therefore, that
the scarfing that does not actually need
the scarfpin in reality requires it most
of all.
In the self tied De Joinville, or its
madeup reproduction, the scarfpin must
pierce the cross folds at the intersec-
tion.-Clothier and Furnisher.

Rerztoue riding on the iron Hofsos

you sometimes run SO close to bottom
less chasins that you could drop your
hat into them, and make turns 80 short

spinal vertebre. The master mechanic
was an old friend Of mine and gave me
permission TO ride over the road on the
engine Of the Lightning express. The
Engineer did not appear to fancy my
presence much, but treated me civilly.
We were behind time, the night was
black as Erebus, and terrific thunder
storm was raging. The engineer was
determined to go in on time, and the
way no rushed around those curves and
across canyons was enough to make o
mans hair turn gray.

miracle you have been saved. The
trucks take the curve in the orthodox
manner, but the superstructure is so ar
ranged that 1t consumes more time in
making the turn. With the lightning
playing about the mountain peaks and
half disclosing the frightful gorges and
swollen torrents, the great iron leyiathan
swaying and plunging along that slip
perry, serpentine track, first realized
the perils Of railway travel and the re-
sponsibility of the sullen man who kept
his hand on the throttle and his eye on
the track. l stood with my heart in my
