A STORM ASHORE.
BY JAMES II. CONNOLLY.

nying that there is something in luck.
Every sailorman knows there are unlucky
things. such as sailing on q Friday, and
drowning a cat. and lots more, ami that
may be so. Well, l won't take any
chances Oh II. But I've thought OF you
Tor eleven hundred days and nights as my
little wife, and the words sprang naturally
TO my lips. Still I'll try not TO call you so
any r,ore until We are married"
And to prevent any harm from your
indlscretion | suppose / must use the
counter-eharm."
And that lie p"
go call you," and winding her arms
again about his neck she whispered in his
ear. my big husband"
And then, OF course. there were more
suitable ceremonials, endeArments and
caresses, and mutual proteetations of I'M
dying affection, such as young people so
circumstanced have always made. make
Yet, and doubtless will make 10 the end of
time.
How very short the time seemed to the
lovers from the moment of their meeting
until by a glance at the stars, the true
sailors clock. Dom saw that il was near
the hour for him To leave Elysium and
hasten to join shipmate. who was wait
ing Tor him in light sail-boat off Ma
peague Inlet to take him back TO New
London and the stern realities of life.
And so. after final settlement a. to the
probable time of his return from his first
West Indian voyage. and a little more
provisionary talk about the happiness OF
which they were so we'll assured the EN-
lopment in the coming auiumn, and con.
sequentlv more love making aud caressin q.
all of which could have no interest for
anybody bat themselves, the lovers
parted.

BABIES ON FIRE

Babies burning up, babies in
agony from itching and burning
eczemas and other torturing, disfig-
uring, itching, burning, bleeding,
scaly and blotchy skin and scalp
diseases. None but mothers realize
how these little ones suffer when
their tender skins are literally on
Ore. To know that a single appli-
cation of the CUTICURA RENE
DIES will in the great majority of
cases afford instant relief, permit
rest and sleep, and point to a per-
manent and economical because
most speedy cure, and not to use
them is to fail in your duty. Think
of the years of suffering entailed by
such neglect, years not only OF
physical but of mental suffering by
reason of personal Disagreement
Why delay a moment longer the
use of these great skin cures, blood
purifiers and humor- remedies
Cures made in infancy and child
hood are speedy, economical, and
almost invariably permanent

NOT trace remains to-day (writes
the Bazar's fashion correspondent
from Paris Of the threatened inva-
sion of crinOline which created such
a commotion only short time since,
not even the rolls Of hair-cloth which
were then being put into the hem Of
skirts, and were supposed to be only
a stepping to actual hOop-skirts.
Moreover. there is already reaction
against the exaggerated flare OF
skirts, or rather against the rigidity
of the flare. Round skirts are cut
amply wide at the bottom, and with
a certain spring outward, but the
fullness falls naturally into easy folds
over petticoat, which, while it is
literally hounced and rui1led, has no
bolstering of hair cloth, springs, or
anything Of a similar nature. While
the flare is comparatively moderate
for round skirts, it Is appreciably less
for full-drcss toilets, which fall quite
straight at the front, flare slightly at
the sides, and have the fullness
thrown into deep plaits in short or
medium train.

THERE are many ways confidence
men" have of playing on the credu-
lity Of the farmer, and thereby de-
frauding him Of his shekcls. They
all pass muster under the genuine
title of "lightning rod men," If the
farmer would only deal with people
Of good rcpute among his neighbors,
there would be little chance for such
sNindling. Indeed, a close study of
this class Of complaints develops the
Fact that nearly all OF them are di-
rectly due to the farmers attempt to
trade with strangers, the latter hold
ing out the temptation of low prices.
In the end the only thing sold is the

more credulous than other men, bat
from his comparative isolation the
slick swindlers can make him believe
that his whole object in life is to
give farmers something for nothing.

Little Chance OF Perjury.

Writers in the law periodicals are
advocating all sorts CT strange doc
trines at present. One correspondent
thinks that circumstantial evidence
should have scarcely any weight. Ills
argument is that when direct evil
dence is given there is only the per-
Jury of the witness to be guarded
against. while in circumstantial evil
dence there are both the possibility
of perjury and the liability toe wrong
inference from the circumstances.
The strength of circumstantial evil
dence, according to most writer's,
however, is that there is little proba-
bility of perjury, as the circumstances
frequently are slight in themselves
and not likely to be distorted by the
witnesses who do not know or their
full effect The New York Tribune
regards 1t as probable that many
more unjust convictions have taken
place from perjured direct evidence
than from mistaken differences from
circumstances. Ardemus Stewart, In
the American Law Register, belitJles
the value of expert evidence to an
even greater extent than most pre-
vious writer's. English lawyers, writ
ing to the London papers, have advo-
Gated to some extent strange plan
for doing away with all oaths in legal
proceedings, on the ground that per-
jury Is SO common that simple dec
larations to which the same penal
ties for incorrect statements might
attach, would be just as valuable as
testimony given under the present
form. Another new theory which
has found it's advocate is that in

ION few subjects is there more
nonsense talked than on love-" says
a writer in London Truth. "A girl
begins life with Il dose Of unattached
affection. Some one asks her &c
marry him, on which she concentrates
this affection on him. If some one
else had asked her, the concentration
would have taken place on the some
one else. Having become bctrothed,
she considers she is in that peculiar
condition which is called being in
love. The best guarantee, however,
for u happy marriage is not SO much
being in love "a certain fitness Of
things and a reasonable liking be-
tween the contracting parties. If
both are pleasant in their relations to
each other, the mere fact OF living to-
gcther and having identical interests
develops affection. ] know that this
view Of matrimony is contrary to the
IDEAS accredited ip novels. 1t is,
however, true. III France, where
marriages are generally arran red be-,
tween two families, they tuln out
we'll; better, in fact, than in English
love matches"

Caught II Fox by the Tail.

Larry Hughes, son Of Joseph
Hughes, residing in East Whiteland,
while eating his midday meal day
or two ago, heard dog barking in
the yard, and fastening outside saw
large fox In corner of the yard
and in front Of 1t dog. The animal
was fairly trapped by the two fences
behind and the dog in front. A
brilliant idea suddenly ran through
the brain of Larry. fastening to
the outside Of the fence he reached
through and grasped Reynard by the
tail. The fox squirmed and tried to
bite the man, but could not reach
him on account of the fence. Larry
was in quandary. He had the
game within reach, but could not
capture it. He yelled for assistance.
and his father came upon the scene
and secured a large box, into which
the fox was quickly placed West

THE SAIS OF CAIRO.
Runners in Front of Carriages to- Keep

Runners in Front of Carriages to- Keep
People Out of the Way.
The sails is a runner who keepsln front
of a carriage and warns common people
out of the way, and who beats them
with a stick if they do not hurry up
about it. He is a relic ofthe days when
the traffic in all of the streets was SO
congested that he was an absolute
necessity; now he makes it possible for
a carriage to move forward at trot,
which without his aid it could not DO.
1t is obvious that to do this he must run
swiftly. Most men when they run bend
their bodies forward and keep their
mouths closed in order to save their
wind. The sails runs with his shoulders
thrown back and trumpeting like an en-
ragged elephant. lie holds his long
wand at his side like musket, and not
trailing in his hand like a walking stick,
and he wears Il short shirt of white stuff
and sleeveless coat buried in gold lace.
His breeches are white and volumlnous
as a woman's skirts; they fall to few
inches above his knee; the rest of his
brown leg is bare, and rigid with mus
Gle. On his head he has a fez with
long black tassel and a magnificent SILK
scarf of many colors is bound tightly

of color and movement, and as
he runs he bellows like Il
bull, or roars as you have
heard lion roar at feeding-timc in q
menagerie. 1t is not a human cry at
all, and YOU never heard it, even to the
last day of your stay in Cairo, without
Il start, as though it were cry of help
at night, or the quick changing bell OF n
tire-engine. There is nothing else IN
Cairo which is SO satisfying. There are
sometimes two Of them running abreast,
dressed exactly alike, and with the
upper part Of their bodies as rigid as
the wand pressed against their side, and
with the ends of their scarf and the
long tasseI streaming out behind. AS
they yell and below, donkeys and
and carriages and people scramble out
of their way until the carriage they
precede has rolled rapidly by. Only
princesses of the royal harem, and
consuls-general, and the heads of the
Army of Occupation and the Egyptian
army are permitted two sails; other
people may have one. They appeared
to me as much more autocratic appen
dages than troop of life guards. The
rastequaire who first introduces them
in Paris will make his name known in
day, and Lord Mayors show or a
boxseat on a fourin-hand will be
modest and middle-class distinction in
comparison.-Hdrper's WeeklV.

the brave foreigners whom sympathy
with the cause of American indie

G. +. Browne, was aware that his
nom de plume, "Artemus Ward, J"
was the real name Of one Of the
major generals Of the revolutionary
army: and the name of w. Wilmot,
captain of the Second Maryland Reg
iment, who was killed by a foraging
party of British on Nov. 4, 1882, at
St Johns Island, S. c., reminds us
that his was the last blood spilled in
the long war.
The first legislation in the interests
of the brave soldiers who riSked their
lives in the struggle to throw off the
yoke of foreign domination occurred
as far back as 1916. In that year the
Continental Congress, recognizing the
debt of gratitude owed by the nation
TO her brave defenders, turned it's at
tention to the subject of military
pensions. In long series of resolu-
tions, passed the Goth of August IN
that year, 1t was provided that every
officer, both commissioned and non
commissioned, as we'll as every pri-
vate soldier, who should in the serv-

such pension to commence from the
date that his pay as soldier ceased.
1t was also provided that in case the
injury should not be so serious as to
cause total disablement, the invalid
should receive such compensation as
might be agreed upon by the legisla-
ture Of the State in which his resi-
dence was located; the compensation
never TO exceed his half-pay.
This act was supplemented in July.

the acts extending the payment OF

rules and conditions, to the widows

THE charming young lady of New
Albany who recently married the
man of her choice in spite of a codi-
Gil to her fathers will cutting off a
nequest Of $500, 600 If she should do
so, has been much praised for her
noble devotion. From all accounts,
she is lovely young woman, and
doubtless deserves all the nice things
said about her; but it is Just as well
to remember that she did not marry
the man Of her choice until she had
the very best of legal advice that the
codicl was invalid. This shows that

AMONG the apparent inconsistent
c.es of human nature is the coupling
in the same person, of abilities in
music and mathematics. Nearly all
the great composers were apt at fig
uyeS, and now and then one finds an
arithmetician who is good musician
as well. Such one is a professor in
one OF our Eastern colleges. He
seems almost to live for geometry
and calculus, confesses that he takes
little pleasure in romance or in Wis
ual beauty, has no eye for color but a
keen one for line and form, and, in
fact, would seem to be man who
was incapable of the emotional force
required for the performance OF
music: yet, next to mathematics,
music is his greatest delight, and not
only does he play correctly, but he
plays with remarkable expression.
