Moorish Cure for rheumatism.

In Fee there are fire doctors who Sit
in the more frequented streets waiting
for rheumatism patients. Each doctor
has little furnace, a pair of bellows
and number OF curiouslyshaped iron
rods before him. When not operating,
he solemnly and necessarily re DIS .
book of one sentence:
There is no God but God, arc
Mohammed is his prophet"
When a patient appears the ducto
lays down his book, blows up his FIR,
with his bellows and sticks into II {
Goals several of the rods, which ar,
about two feet long and have queel
knobs and hooks on their heated ends
While W iting for these to get hot he
constantly repeats his one sentence.
When all is ready the patient pay,
his fee, lies down on his face and draws
his clothing up on his back, 'ln the
name Of God" says the fire d ctor,
and passes red hot iron with great
deliberaton over various parts of the
back. 1t makes sizzling noise, .
smell OF burned flesh fills the air
Meantime a crowd Of men have col
lected to witness the operation. They
necessarily pass their finger through
their boards and praise God and Mo

Frequently the patient, after one
operation, lies still for awhile, rerhap,
waiting for another twinge of the dis
ease. 1t it comes he perceivcS that he
is not quite cured, and demands an.

LOVES SEASON.
whom hectic Pushes

In sad sweet days when hectic lushes
Burn led ON maple and sumac leaf,
When sorrowful winds wall through the rushesD
And al things whisper Of loss and grief,
When close and closer bold Frost approaches
TO snatch the blossom from Natures breast,
When night forever on day cnCroaches-
Oh then think that love you bestl
And yet when winter, that tyrant master,
Has buried autumn in walls of snow,
And bound and fettered where bold Frost cast
her
Lies outraged Nature in helpless woe;
When all earth's pleasures in four walls center,
And side by side in the snug home nest
We list the tempest that cannot enter,
Oh then say that love you bestl
But later on, when the siren season
Betrays the trust of the senile king,
And glad earth laughs at the act of treason,
And winter dies in the arms of spring;
When buds and birds all push and flutter
To free fair Nature so long oppressed,
thrill with feelings cannot utter
And then am certain love you best
But when in splendor the queenly summer
Reigus over the earth and the skies above
When Nature kneels to the royal conner,
And even the sun flames hot with love;
When pleasure basks in the luscious weather,
And care lies out on the sward to rest
Oh, whether apart or whether together,
1t is then know that | love you best!

How widow Made Use of What She

How widow Made Use of What She
Heard Railroad Directors Say.
A few years ago a widow and her
daughter were occupying section in a
Pullman sleeper on the Mis- oul1 Pacific
railroad The section next to this lady
happened to be occupied by a couple of
the directors of that railroad. The par
tition between the two sections was so
thin that it was not difficult for con-
versation carried on in one section to be
heard in the other The lady traveller
heard the two directors discussing plan
Of consolidation whereby the stock of the
Missouri Pacific was bound to be greatly
enhanced in value.
1t was then worth but or 8 cents on
the dollar. She was on her return trip
to her home in Hartford The CONVEX
sation of the two directors preyed on her
mind. She revolved it over and over
again until her home was reached. about
which time IS 900 note due her was re-
deemed. She sent for her attorney, de-
tailed to him the conversation she had
heard and said she was almost resolved
to invest the S., 600 in Missouri Pacific.
The attorney, installing her announced
resolution for irony, laughed, but the
woman of wealth persisted.
at is but $j,000," she said, and if
lose shall have just as much to eat as l
have always had and just as much to
| wear. If the plans betrayed by these
two directors work out, shall make a
good deal of money buying Missouri Pa.
cific."
The attorney obeyed the instructions
of his client, invested the 5000, and in
less than month the proposed consoli-
dation was consummated, and the Hart
ford widow realized for her $4,000 invest
ment $250000. At the first blush this in
cident is set down as proof of luck.
1t was simply an unexpected exhibit
ton of what in Wall street vernacular is
termed nerve" ON the part of a quick
cared and quicker witted woman. Not
one person in 10000 would have given
any heed to the conversation referred to,
and not one of a thousand who might
have heard and needed and who hap
pened to have the money as the widow
had it, would have dared invest it.
These incidents and illustrations might
be expanded until volumes were filed,
The evidence would be cumulative that
eyes and ears and brain make what
the thoughtless term luck.-Cincinnati

People Who Whistle.

'Most people look upon whistling as
nuisance" said Herbert G. Subtitle, "but
there is no doubt that whistling man
has a good deal to recommend him. /

long experience he never knew ha-
bitual whistler condemned to term in
the institution, and he says, moreover,
that although the rules as to quiet and
order are frequently broken he never re-
members to have heard an attempt at q
musical whistle within the terrible look
ing walls of the institution. Whistling
seems to be the natural safety valve Of
good spirits and satisfaction, and the
grumbling man couldn't whistle if he
tried.
Il had man to work for me once who
was model in every respect except that
he kept my teeth constantly ON edge by
a series Of whistling solos of anything
but cheerful character, although the
good man was evidently trying to repro
duce the latest operate hits. | broke
him of the habit by continuous scolding
but the man became so idle and indiffer
ent in consequence that was very GLAD
to encourage him to resume a habit
which at first had given me SO much an
noyance. | try to get out of the way
when the spirit moves him to announce
in whistling tones some important or 70

that as long as he whistles he will worl

Address as Above"

There is one lawyer in the city who
will never again make use of Latin
phrases in writing business letters. A
short time ago he had to write letter to
client in neighboring city regarding
an important lawsuit that was to come
up before the court in the course of a
few days. The information he solicited
was highly essential to his case. In writ
ing this epistle he made use of letter
head with his printed address at the top.
In closing his letter he signed himself
thus: John Langdon, Address ut supra. y
After waiting several days for the re-
ply, which did not come, he again wrote
his procrastinating client and asked why
he had not sooner answered his first let
ter. The next day he received reply in
which the client said that he had an
swered the letter and addressed it to
