Making Rilliard Cnshions.

The making Of billiard cushions is an
important industry, but is carried on
by two or three firms alone, and while
the story of the difficulty which has
been overcome in preventing the ball
from sinking into the rubber and thus
destroying the angle desired to be taken
is an interesting one it has been told
before and will not be repeated now.
In the early days of the industry the
manufacturer employed valve rubber
and obtained a much better price for it
when it was worked up into the cush-
ion.
Then the cushion maker set his wits
to work to get the valve rubber cheap
Iy, but in those days it was strongly
held, and none was allowed to pass to
that industry unless it paid the en-
HANGED royalty. Finally the combina-
ton was broken by a firm in Pittsburg
ordering the valve rubber ostensibly for
ordinary use, but shipping it back to
New York for the intended purpose.
So skillfully and patiently was this
done that great quantity was accumu-
lated, and the valve rubber man threw
up the sponge. Now billiard cushions
are made of nodded rubber, an evolu-
ton which came along Iater.-Hard-

FLESH EATING HARES.
A skeptic was Convinced When He Saw
One launching Mutton

A skeptic Was Convinced When He Saw
One launching Mutton.
Hare is a dish never seen on q Spanish
table, because in Spain there is a super
stition that hares in the night go into
churchyards and dig up the graves and
eat the dead bodies. A writer who spent
some time shooting in Castillo, where
game is very plentiful, relates how he
was convinced Of the fact that the hares
do eat flesh. He had been told so by
the country people, but had treated their
assertion as a ridiculous fiction The
next time he found himself in party OF
sportsman he repeated what he had
heard as a joke, but to his surprise every
one listened quite gravely and assured
him that it was perfectly true. They
themselves had frequently seen hares
eating flesh. AS he still expressed doubts
on the subject, however, one of the com
panv offered to bet him 50 iiuers Of wine
that he (the GERMANY should see hare
eating meat. The bet was accepted.
Thenext morning, very early, the Span
lard, the German and two greyhounds
went ont to a great heath to look for
flesh eating hares. As they were sitting
waiting for the hares to appear, the
Spaniard, to the Germans amazement,
took little live crab out Of his pocket.
"What do you want that for?' said the
German ITO catch the hare with, re-
piled the Spauiard, 1t struck the Ger
man that perhaps the Spaniard had
brought him out merely to make fool
of him. But then he reflected that that
was not the Spanish way with. strangers.
So he held his tongue and went on wait
ing. BY and by a fine hare appeared.
In a moment the two dogs were after
him they were well muzzled, so that
they could not DO him any harm) and
in q few moments more the hare had dis
appeared again in his hole, and the DOGS
were barking at its mouth, The men got
up and hurried after them.
"Now," said the Spaniard, "this is
where my crab comes in" He pulled
out the crab and put it down at the
mouth Of the hole, and it, glad to hide in
the dark shade, crept in with all the ex-
petition it could manage. The Span
lard instantly spread q large coarse sack
over the entrance. and In q few moments
out rushed the hare, terrified by its I'M
expected visitor, right into the sack.
Home they went with their prisoner,
which they placed in a cage. When the
hare had recovered from his fright, he
ate before the Germans astonished eyes
several pieces Of the mutton which were
thrown -Muenchener Zeitung.

La Fontaine's Opinion of Himself.

LA Fontaine, said one of the most
brilliant critics and wits of the famous
fable writer's time, lis such fool that
he does not know he has more genius
than Esop or Ph@drus. s"
In truth, he was a severe critic of his
own work. He attended the first presen-
tation of his 'Astree, and sat near
some ladies who did not know him. AT
some of the important passages he ex-
claimed: "That is wretched! That is
absurd"
When they protested that it was
good, and that it was by the great La
Fontaine, he rejoined:
THAT makes no difference. The
piece is bad. [ know that La Fontaine
you are speaking of. He's a stupid fell
low. He's myself"
Then he went out, entered cafe and
went to sleep in a corner. Some of his
friends found him there and inquired
why he wasn't listening to Astree. -
oh, " said the author, rousing him
self and sitting a yawn, q just came
away. The first part displeased me
greatly. No one agreed with what said
about it. but l didn't care to hear more.
I admire the patience of the Parisians. "

4 Mexican Eeud.

At the town of Cuantro Lios, Mexico, are

Sand God Defend the Right

The taxpayers of Kentucky are re-
quirnd to sign a printed oath after
naAing APP their tax lists. General Gas
sius Nj. Clay, of Whitehall, after erasing
this, wrote and signed the following of
his own: "The signer solemnlY swears
that the railway corporations of the
state and nation have taken possession
of the highways and exercise on him and
his lands and personal estate unlimited
power of taxation, when he has no rep
Tesentation, and their DEGREES are en-
forced by hireling army under the
name of detectives, using force without
orders from state or nation; that, on the
18th day of September, 1892, he had not
made dollar on his personal and real
estate, but, on the contrary, had expend-
ed several hundred dollars in the pay
ment of his laborers; that he has moth
ing that he can sell at profit, and, hav-
ing been reduced from affluence to pow
erty, while honestly working for living,
and paid all to the usurping railways
and their allies, the plutocracy of the
United States, he is unable and protests
against paying anything more to the
Commonwealth Of Kentucky, or to the
uited States of America. except under
1rcible compulsion, until the once re-
5ublic resumes the liberties inherited by
our fathers. And God defend the right. "

POINTERS ON THE GRIP.
A Description of the Disease by One Who
Has Suffered.


Ever had the grip? I will give you a
few pointers. You will imagine you
have a bad cold, and you can wear it
out, but you need not try it. The grip
has fastened his fangs onto you and will
not let 60 You have got to give up, go
home and go to bed. In a short time
you will realize Beecher' S dream of hell.
You will think your head has been re-
moved and an old beehive with the
empty comb left in its place Your
mouth will taste like pail Of sauer-
kraut. You have the grip.
The doctor comes, looks you over,
puts his thermometer in your mouth,
finds your temperature 104 degrees in
the shade, your pulse going at the rate
of two miles and three laps to the sec
ond. He orders you to stay in bed and
gives you medicine that is so strong, and
sour that simply setting the bottle on
the clock shelf stopped the clock. He
will tell your wife that she may give
you warm drinks and try to get you
to sweat and take his leave. Now, all
wives are family doctors by right of
their position in the house, and as you
have gone to sleep, delirious and ex-
hausted, she begins her treatment by
putting a belladonna plaster across your
lungs, a faxseed pouItice on one side
and a mustard poultice on the other,
a hot fatiron and a jug Of hot water to
your feet, and a sack Of boiled corn in
the ear, piping hot, to your back. You
sleep and dream Of being away to the
far north in search of the north pole OF
out in the center Of some beautiful
sheet Of water, like Lake Superior OF
the lawn tennis skating rink, helpless
and alone, with the ice breaking all
around you and you slowly sinking.
You finally awake, burned, blistered and
baked. The doctor calls, finds yOul
temperature about so degrees at the
north side of the house and your pulse
normal, not needing pacemaker. lie
pronounces you better, convalescing
orders beef tea, chicken soup, grue-
and toast as a diet. You take the big
rocking chair exhausted, tired, dis
couraged and ugly; you feel like lick
ing your wife, kicking the dog anc
breaking up the furniture, but yoU
won't do anything but sit there day
after day weak, helpless and tired

When Gen. Hugh Cameron returned
from the army he built of logs a one,
room cabin on his forty-acre farm, three
miles northwest of Lawrence, Kan. The
cabin stands there to day and Cameron
has occupied it alone all these years. He
is now nearly 10 years old and his hair
and whiskels are as white as snow. His
whiskers, when combed out loose, reach
his knees, while his hair, when hanging
down his hack, touches his hips. He
was never in a barber's chair in his lie,
never put razor to his face and his hair
has not been trimmed since he was a
babe three years old. He is native Of
Pennsylvania, and is related to the Cam
eron family of that state.

The Helpful Monkeys.

In annihilating prices and cutting,
pulling and slashing down clothing
the three Gagged monkeys on exhibition
in the show window of J. M. Gliding
& Co. took hand recently. By some
means they got the cage door open in
the absence of the proprietors and
they came out free as the air to inspect
things generally. Their chief amuse-
ment was in biting and pulling of
every price mark they found, upsetting
the dressed figures and arranging
things generally in the show window
more to comport with monkey taste
and fashion. If the window was not
the handsomest in town after a few
hours industrious effort on the part OF
the monkeys it was certainly the most
attractive, and prices were certainly
cut down, and so was every article OF
clothing. While the long-tailed monk,
ey's were the most industrious, and
displayed the finest taste in arranging
things, old brownie, the boss, took an
elevated position on the top of the
cage and looked on with an ovc..
seeing and supervising eye. He wa:
content to know the work before them
was being attended to all right by the
ringtailed monkeys, and he simply
appropriated to his own use about
everything they found that was chew
able or digestible. As an advertising
scheme monkeys will do, perhaps, i
you can keep them Gagged. No charge
for this ad. as Mr., Gliding still re
tains the monkeys for general edifca
tion and without regard to cost.
