Russian Superstition.

Ignorance is seen in its true colors
when it interferes in the practical af-
fairs of life, and strikes a death-blow
to prosperity and happiness. A.
traveller in Russia writes, in the En-
glish Illustrated Magazine:
One village through which we
passed was the embodiment of filth
and squalor. A destructive fire was
raging at one end of it, and round
this all the inhabitants were gath
cred. One house was already burned
down, Il second was one mass of
flames, and the fire was rapidly
spreading to a third, yet not a hand
was raised to arrest its ruinous o
ress. Oaths, prayers, the wailing of
women and whining of children filed
the air.
why on earth don't you put out
the flre?" shouted my companion to
n of the peasants, who approached
with a servile and wistful look, as if
he expected an Offering of money.
"Havc no buckets?"
Surely your exccllcncy deigns to
know that it isn't buckets we need."
"Well, it isn't strong arms, either.
l fancy. Why don't you go to work."
"Your grace wouldn't have us fly in
the face of heaven! We've sins
enough on our souls without
adding that black crime to them.
Wasn't it Gods own lightning that
set Hetroff's house on fire, a couple
of hours ago? And bad as we are,
there's not a man in the village that
would raise his hand to undo Gods
holy work."
My friend raised his hand, waved
it despairingly, and we drove on.
"It's a mere waste of time to rea-
o with them," he said. aThey
would as soon commit suicide en-
masse as put out a fire that God had
kindled with His lightning"

During the s%corching weather of

where in the region of the eyes. Why
is this? Did you ever stop to thinks:
One who has studied the physiology
Of the case says that it is caused in
the following manner: The frozen
mixture, coming in contact with the
nerves Of the throat (larynx, pharynx,
etc. temporarily paralyzes them.
The sensation shoots to the center
OF those nerves, which is the brain,
but finds there q side connection in
the shape of the great facial nerve,

and extends its branches over the
sides of the face. One branch of this
facial nerve, extending across the
temple. is a s'nerve Of sensation, -

to govern the play of the mouth.

Price was born in Alexandria on April
IL, 1882, making Monday his Goth
birthday.
Having been in business at his
present stand for twenty-seven years,
he is full of "reminiscences of great
Americans who patrOnized his flyers.
Among these was General Grant, who
came in one day and said:
"Price, / want to take a spin over
the road to-day. Let me have n Of
your fastest trotters."
When the General returned he was
profuse In his praise of the horse he
had driven, and said:
price, that fellow was chain-light-
ming itself"
General Grants Arabian steeds,
presented to him by the Sultan of
Turkey, were placed in MI. Price's
care when they first came here, as
we're President Harrison's coach
horses.
President Cleveland was afraid o.
runaway or skittish horses, and all
ways asked for a gentle animal. MI.
Price met ex- President Cleveland at
the depot upon his arrival here with
seven carriages for himself and party.
President Arthur's favorite was .

PAGER attached to a carriage produced
the most delightful sensation.
He only furnished President Hayes
with one horse for an early morning
horseback ride in the country beyond
the Soldiers Home. Dir. Hayes asked
for a gentle horse, and would not
make his tina! selection until he had
e e several tried by the stable boys.
General Sheridan always asked for
an equine full of life and fire. HI
