The s,ant. and Noah.s FLOOD.

Among the many queer stories related,
IN the old Jewish Talmud and copied
into Barring Gould's "Patriarchs and
Prophets" and works of similar import.
Is one concerning the action taken by
the great race of giants at the time Of
the deluge. At the time Of the food the
giants were not all drowned Their
leader, Og, planted his foot upon tho
fountains of the deep, and with his
hands he stopped the windows Of hear-
en-. According to Rabbi Eliezer. when
the flood broke upon the earth the giants
exclaimed, "If all the. waters Of the
earth be gathered together, they will
only reach to our waists. and if the foun-
tains of the great deep be broken up we
will stamp them down again. This
they did as they had declared they
would. Then God made the waters hot
and boiled-th flesh from their bones.
The Taygu1n Of Palestine also says the
waters of the food were hot. Tho Tai
mud then goes on to relate the story Of
the escape Of Og, declaring that he went
into the water along with the rhinoceros,
clinging to the side OF the ark. The.
same authorities which give us an. 60
count Of how Og saved himself tell us
that all the waters Of the deluge were
hot except that which Immediately sur
rounded the hull Of the ark. One rab-
binic authority says that Og climbed
upon the top Of the ark, and that when
Noah discovered and attempted to dis
lodge him he swore to be slave to the
patriarch,s family forever If permitted
to retain bis seat.-St. Louis Republic

Character In the Bell Ring.

Doorhells are pretty good indicators q
character. Probably you have not been
conscious Of it, but every time you pull
doorbell you register what manner OF
man you are. Your ring will not tell
everything about you. .from-the color OF
your eyes TO your taste In flowers. but
to those who know the signs the doorbell
is as good as title page.
Any one who has had occasion TO an
swer bell pulls knows how much diffey-
ence there Is In them. One persons
method varies very little from time to
time, though the difference between that
method and somebody else, while slight,
will be sufficiently well marked. It is
seldom that two rings are exactly elike.
The housewife recognizes each-the
impatient man. who pulls the bell twice
in quick succession andsdoes not wait
long before trying IL again; the one Of.
more phlegmatic temperament, whose
ring Is slower and more substantial; the
hesitating woman. who draws the knob
out in succession of nervous Jerks; the
seedy Individual with matches to sell,
who stretches the wire carefully to its
full length and then allows 1t TO- relax,
with faint. apologetic t,nkle. and the
jolly friend who knows he Is welcome
and therefore grasps the knob with 9;
hearty swing that is fairly eloquent With
good nature and sets the bell to shaking
It's sides with such peals Of echoing
laughter that 1t positively caunot stop
at once, but subsidies gradually with.a
merry, irrepressible little litter. Adoor-
bell has as many voices as visitors

Tho End Of One soothsayes

In ancient times every monarch and
prince, great or little, kept his soothsay-
ers, or at least had recourse to some per-
son who pretended to read the future In
the stars or somewhere else We have
still persons who assume to be able to
foretell the future, but the great differ
ence between past ages and the present
IN this regard Is that then the great and
often wise men Of the earth believed IN
the soothsayers. while now only the fool
ish and feeble have any confidence In
them.
The decline In the credit and honor Of
soothsaying dates in a considerable meas
ure perhaps from q certain performance
Of John Galeazzo, duke of Milan. He,
too, had soothsayer. One day the
reader Of the stars came to him and said:
"My lord, make haste TO arrange your
earthly affairs.
"And why shall | DO that7 asked the
duke.
because the stars tell me that you
have not long to live"
"Indeedl And what do the stars tell
you about your own lease of lifey asked
Duke John.
"They promise me many years more
Of life"
"They dor
$50 have read them, my lord.
swell, then.' said the duke, eft ap-
pears that the stars knew very little
about these things, for YOU will be
hanged within half an hourle
{ he sent the soothsayer to the gallows
with promptness and lived many years
afterward himself. Star reading fell
into disuse in Milan from that time

A Remarkable Diet.

All that appertains to food for invalids
comes naturally under woman's prov
ince; therefore it sounds very strange to
folks who are experienced in the dietary
Of invalids to hear what Senator Stan.
ford's food had been restricted to fog SIX
weeks previous to his death Unless
there were complications that rendered
other foods impossible It would seem
that the last thing to give man with
heavy apoplectic tendencies would be- a
diet of beef. Meat, and especially beet,
Increases the pressure Of the blood on
the arteries, which have already, very
thin walls in sufferers with such tenden-
cies. A diet Of fruits or vegetables or
skimmilk suits most people under such
conditions. when beef only makes mat
tiers worse. There may have been cir-
cumstances rendering fruit improper. or
milk indigestible, but there faems hard
ly anything man could take that would
make more danger to his circulatory aysr
tenn then fresh hasEed meat.

Mayor 6ilrOy H IhInktnE Up q ttcmcoy
Different from the ComPtrolier's.
Mayor Gilroy said Yesterday that he thor

the city should not be q borrower Of money.
and as such at tho mercy Of Wall street money
lenders. He says. though. that he would
find q different way out Of the dilemma than
that suggested by the Comptroller.
III We should gradually change the time OF
collecting taxes 30 that the money would be
received for tho city's administrative needs
and not to pay old debts" said he. Tho same
change would have to be effected In the time
for making up the budget by the Board OF
Estimate and Apportionment. in the time for
making assessments. and in the times set for
tho Board OF Aldermen to make the tax levy
and fix the rate. These changes would have
