Some By-Gone Superstitions.

The ancient custom of whirling the
teacup and telling fortunes by the
dregs, seeing kiss here, ring there,
clear sky, or tears, is now known as
part of the old divination which even
the more enlightened of the heather
ridiculed ; the notion Of disaster with
thirteen at table has been exploded
long ago the idea that Friday is
day Of i'll luck, that any of Gods days
can be days of i'll luck, ranks one ad-
herring to it as among the low and
ignorant. That one must not trim
ones nails on Sunday, lest one do
something one is ashamed of before
the next Sunday; that the scissors
dropping into the floor, instead of up
on it, announce coming guest that
the rocking Of an empty chair gives
spiritual warnings that the baying of
a dog at night, the breaking of a look
ing glass, the putting on of another's
Grape, all prophesy death-the belief
in these and kindred superstitions, and
the expression of exercise of such be-
lief, gives one low caste, and is no
longer to be indulged in with safety
| BY those ambitious of social correct
ness and elegance. Enlightenment,

themselves to the idleness of belief
in any possible power over us inherent

have often wondered what tho -
ternal appearance Of Jesus was like
whether He was tall and slender or short
of stature, and whether He was emaciated
on account of His frequent fasts and the
great burdens resting upon Him. Espe-
cially have I wondered what His face was
Eke-whether 1t was q sweet face which
once seen could never be forgotten, or
whether, as some tradition says, there
never was q smile upon it.
Is there anything wrong in such
thought as thisI Does 1t not seem nat
ural that when one reads SO much about
the words and acts of Jesus, and knows
that nobler, kinder being never lived,
he should wonder as to the expression OF
His face, the color Of His eyes and hair.
and meeting Him upon the highway
would men be attracted by the beauty Of
His face or would they be impressed by
His homeliness? W'r
While going up and down the Holy
Land thought much about the external
appearance Of Jesns and wondered
whether anywhere in that country I
should meet face that would in some
measure answer to my idea Of the Christ.
In the crowded streets Of Jerusalem, In
the Garden of Gethsemane, at the Pool
of Sloan, at the supposed site of Calvary
north Of the Damascus gate, at Bethle-
hem, Nazareth, and as we wound along
the beaten paths Of travel among the hills
and over the plains, kept nay eyes open
for picture of the Christ
Leaving the camp at Nberias early
one morning for walk northward along
the sea I came upon man standing ap-
parently in deep meditation upon rock.
His hair was long, his figure slight, his
countenance sad, his eyes piercing and
yet full of tenderness. There seemed to
be something about him that aroused
strange feelings within my heart Had
/ seen the Christ? have tried to forget
that face and form, and yet it clngs to
me- Whatever the form of Jesus may
have been, know this-that there never
was one that came so near my ideal as
this.-Rev. Z. Herbruck, PHI. d.

1.-THE Blood is the Life.

Runs the old saying and everything
that ever makes part of any organ of
the body must reach its place there
in through the blood. Therefore, if
the blood is purified and kept in good
condition by the use of Hoods Sar-
saprilla, it necessarily follows that the
benefit of the medicine is impaired to
every organ of the body. Can any
thing be simpler than the method by
which this excellent medicine gives
good health to all who will try it
fairly and PATIENTLY

Society at the Capital.

The society of the capital that is
Immediately before our eyes is NOV
ing and breathing picture of the life
of the country. 1t is essentially re-
publican. The men and women who
compose it come from all ends Of the
land. Its chief interest hes in the
fact that it is not like the society that
is found at courts or in the charmed
circles of those who hedge in kings
Here we have the people doing as
best they may what is done by the Sc
lect of Europe. They may do it
crudely, inelegantly, even boisterously,
but will any one who has participated
in their pleasures say that they do not
do it generously, and with certain
nobility Of kindliness, that, unfortun-
ately for them, is stranger to many
who look at them through cynical
lorgnettes
From the Presidents dwelling down,
the houses of the official people who
care to perform the social function
are open to the public. 1t is absurd, Of
course, to speak Of the social inter
course carried on on such basis as
involving in any but the slightest de-
gree the element Of selection or of
exclusiveness. There was time not
many years ago when a few persons
were invited to the official receptions
at the White House, and placed be-
hind barrier of receiving women and
sofas. 1t was pleasant for those who
we're thus chosen, and they were peo.

Earth Caved in and Buried Him.

Lewis r. Hushebeck, well-known
mechanic, met with great misfortune
Yesterday. Mr.. Hushebeck was en-.
ployed by Contractor Morrison TO fit
together and put In place the joints Of
terra Gotta pipe, of which the new sewer
is being constructed Curious spec q.
tors lined both sides of the deep trench in
which the sewer was being laid,
although they had been warned TO keep
away by Foreman w. II, Morrison.
Finally a crash was heard and the cry
was heard Look out; its caving.
Everybody got out of the trench but
Mr.. Hushebecs, who had reached for his
cement bucket, and he was caught under
the falling bank. When it was seen
that man was buried in the
trench there was cOmmotion and
CONSERVATION for q moment. To Mr..
Hushebeck, every minute seemed like
an hour and il seemed that his life was
being crushed out as the pressure became
heavier and heavier. He cried out in
pain as the workmen dug him from hii
place of suffering.
When medical aid was summoned, II
was found that the unfortunate man haC
received compound fracture of the
right leg which will lay him up for som'
time. He is now resting easy and suf'
fering but little pain.
