Lost In u Small Town.

In his delightful record of Gan EN-
bassy Of Provence" Mr.. Thomas A. Jan
vier relates how he was lost in the may
streets Of the little town of Vers. The
place was strange to him. His pony, be-
ing tormented by flies, ran away with
the carriage or buggy. But ''the po-
nette' did not run too madly to respond
to the rein, so Mr., Janvier turned this,
that and the other corner and few past

hens, till he did not know his way back
to the main road. He says:
"a brave old man rescued us. While
held the ponette hard he seized her
bride, and when he had Gained her by
brushing away the tormenting flies and
I had explained that we were lost and
had begged him to guide us to the high
way he smiled gently and in moment
led us out from that entangling maze.

be less than twoscore yards, but then he
knew what turns to take In that marvel.

The soul Of her who trusted him; he knew

But all who love have relics; on my heart
There rests locket, and l never part
By day or night with one small tress Of hair,
Yet must tell tho world who placed it there
Within the locket; call on oil to see
Ny greatest treasure; say twas given to mo
By one love, who loves me not again,
And show to curious eyes my love Is vainG
And must own to all that when wake

Germany,s Royal Children.


All the children of the imperial FAM
lily have been baptised in water from the
Jordan, according to o custom long es-
tablished in the royal house Of Prussia.
The empress has Of late received innu-
merable requests to stand as sponsor to
the children of all classes OF people in all
parts Of Germany, so many in fact that
she has found it impossible to accede to
even q 1.-THE Of the applications. She
has therefore made it rule to act as
godmother only when one or other Of the
parents is personally known to her.
The empress always prepares some
kind of celebration for the birthdays Of
her children. One of these anniversaries
came along at the time of the Bismarck
episode. The kaiser, who was playing
with the children at the little family
feast, was astonished to hear from the
eldest Of his offspring this comment on
the event which had just astonished the
world: Father" piped out the crown
prince, "they say that you will now tell
the people what to do all by yourself.
You will like that better, won't you, fa-

How a Married Man Passed Very Unhap-
Ply and Improbable Day.
They had been married years and years,
yet never had he gone away from the
breakfast table in the morning without
a goodby kiss until friend came to visit
them-one of those cynical, time soured
bachelors who find fault with everybody
and everything and decide for them
selves that the whole scheme Of creation
is wrong.
The friend did not say anything at the
time, although the kiss Jared on his !
sense of the prophecies, but he waited
until he had his host by the ear, so to-
speak, then he said:
"You seem to keep the honeymoon
pretty we'll, George. Must be deuced
bore, too, when the romance is over"
Then good, weak George began to get
wabbly in his mind and had silly fear
that his friend was making fun of him.
"Yes," he said as he lighted cigar,
lit is rather bore, don't you know. but
the little woman expects it."
ST dare say" resumed the friend, ''but
wouldn't coddle her any more if I were
you. It's too-too domestic, you see, for
this ago. Makes man seem spoony and
weak"
Eyes, I've thought so myself. Guess
I'll turn over new leaf with the little
woman"
The little woman, who had more sense
in her least finger than George had in
his whole body, was greatly surprised
when her husband threw his breakfast
napkin on his plate, rose in haste and
with cackled "'Ta ia, DEAR" ran off
without the customary salute. But she
didn't say anything and bided her time.
It came sooner than was expected.
George went home at night without
the friend, who had returned whence he
came. At dinner George was silent and
morose, and the little woman asked:
Anything gone wrong today"
Eyes. Everything. Lost SEQ out of
my vest pocket"
"Too bad, but it might have been
worse"
"Then mislaid some valuable papers
that carried in the inside pocket of my
coat-it's just been one of ny worrying
days, don't you know"
George" said the little woman In
calm, sweet voice, "don't you think itall
happened because you went away with
out q goodby kiss? I've had a worrying
day, too, and laid it all to that"
'By Jove, little woman, believe you're
right. Queer, but really believe there's
something in it.
'And here is the money. You dropped.
it on the hall floor in your hurry. And
the papers are probably in your other
coat-you know you changed this morn
ing"
'That settles it, little woman" and
George gave her the kiss he had omitted
in the morning with interest, and If the
friend could have seen it he would have
CRASHED his teeth-but he didn't.-De-

Flushing Fresh water Pines.

A vegetable growth in the water mains
at st. Paul has been the cause of some
trouble The first case was discovered
by the superintendent in one Of two
service pipes in a single trench supply
ing double house. A complaint was
made of bad water, which flushing failed
to improve. One of the pipes delivered
pure water, and one supplied muddy
liquid that was of no use. These facts led
to the conclusion that one of the services
was foul, and the remedy applied on this
supposition proved effective. The boiler
Of portable engine was connected with
the faucet of the kitchen sink from
which the muddy water came and q
steam pressure Of 10 pounds forced
against the So pounds water pressure for
80 minutes--t thereby driving the water
out of the pipe.
Since that time the pipe has always
delivered clear water, and IL similar
cases have been successfully treated in
the same manner. Great care has to be
taken that there are no leaks in the serv-
ice pipes and that none Of the fittings
are open during the steaming process

Taking Down a Drummer.

A few years ago number Of us were
stopping at the Henry House in Abilene,
Kan. Among the guests was plug
hat-silk-umbrella clothing drummer
from Boston. He had no desire tomake
up or affiliate with the "boys," but
was crowd all to himself, so we con-
cluded to initiate him. About six miles
west Of Abilene was water station
called "Sand Springs" AS soon as Mr..

wish clothing man would come along"
Mr.. Boston" at once pricked mp his
ears, went into the ticket Office and asked
the agent, "Where Is Sand SpringsY'
The agent told him, 1.-The first station
west" He purchased q ticket and had
his seven big trunks checked to "Sand
Springs"
When the train arrived there, the bag
gageman rolled his trunks out on the
prairie. Mr.. B. inquired of the burly
Irishman who ran the pump engine,
"Where's the town, sir?" "Be jabers,
it's meself and this water tank is all
there ituv it. why" said b., SIS there
not Mr.. Jones starting a large store
here?" "Divil the Bit" said Pat. 1t
soon dawned upon the Bostonian that he
had been the victim of cruel joker.
He had to skirmish around and paid q
farmer 50 to haul his baggage back to
Abilene. When he returned. one Of the
boys gave him the grand bailing sign"
and told him why it was done. He "set
'em up" in fine style and said he would
ever after be ready to extend the hand
of fellowship to worthy brother when
ever he should find him.--Cor. st. Louis

Tho Fertilization of willows.

Some singular exceptions are found to
rules generally deemed absolute, and re-
markable ones have recently been noted
in connection with. theories recently
established in regard to tho relations
between flowers and insects Flowers
have to be fortified by pollen before
they can be productive. Most flowers
have stamens or pollen bearing organs
and pistils, tho reproductive organs, in
the same flower, but these separate or
gans maturing Mt different times the
wind or insects arc agents for carrying
tho fertilizing pollen to other flowers
than those which bear it. This is known
as cross fertilization.
Those flowers only which require the
aid OF insects have color or fragrance.
This is said to be an arrangement for at
tracing insects and insuring cross fer
tilization by their aid. But the exception
comes in the, case of willows which are
in bloom in early spring and often conn.,
monty known as pussy cats" Though
in the class fertilized by the wind, they
have bright golden color and q delight
full fragrance, and the philosophers are
at loss to understand what this excep-
ton means Philadelphia Times.

ncfore the Flag.

In a certain New York mission is
bright street fellow, who, if this Incl
dent may be taken as an indication, bids
fair to develop the brains and the patri-
otto sentiment of good American citi-
zen.
A gentleman announced his intention
of delivering an address on political re.
form in the neighborhood Of the mission,
particularly disorderly district. He
and his friends were informed on good
authority that if the speech were made
the speaker would be pelted with rstten
eggs.
It seemed that the proposed address.
which, it had been believed, would exert
an important influence, must be given
up. A small boy, between whom and
the speaker friendship had developed
at the mission, solved the difficulty by
an ingenious expedient.
II tell you what to do" said he; "hang
the American flag back of the platform,
and you stand before the flag. The
roughs won't throw eggs at the stars and
strines'

Will cure You, is true statement of the
action of AYERS Sarsaparilla, when
taken for diseases originating in impure

AYERS Sarsaparilla, as thousands can

has enjoyed reputation, and made

eases from the system, and it has, deser-
vedly, the confidence OF the people.
