A Sad Case.

There were several brothers. They
are all dead but one. It is curious fact
that they all went insane at a certain
age-all but the one now living. They
were all we'll off in every respect, so
there was nothing about the condition
of either to undermine the reason. The
living one knew the fatal curse which
had followed the family, and looked for
ward to his fate with a GOODNESS akin to
desperation. A year ago, knowing that
the time was near at hand when he
would be of the same age as that at
which the calamity had fallen, he sold
his property. divided the money among
his relatives, wound up his business.
which was prosperous, settled with all
those with whom he had had dealings,
and retired to quiet place near where
he had always lived, and there he is now
awaiting his turn to go crazy.
Only few of his friends knew the
reason for his action and they tried to
dissuade him from the act. An eminent
specialist on such cases made him a
study and told him that he would no
doubt escape the malady if he would
continue in business, and thereby keep
his mind engrossed. He shook his head,
thanked his friends and the physician,
and retired, saying as he did so, Il shall
go mad" mentioning the year, the
month and almost the day. And he is
nearing the month now. He is an intel
igent and has always been an honest
man. 1t is sad case.-Interview in

Artificial Honeycombs.

An interesting east side street vender
of the German quarter is stout. clean
shaven, neatly dressed man who bears
upon his head shining tin pan filled
with golden honeycomb. A spotless
white head cushion receives the bottom
Of the pan, and knife handle shows in
air above the honeycomb. The latter,
as we'll as its sweet contents, looks gen.
uine, and doubtless east side Germans
are tempted by the sight and are in COM

Color Weddings.

The color weddings in which the bride
sacrificed even the traditional bridal
white of her own gown to the prevailing
hue of the decorations have not become
popular ut all. They had some vogue
last season in London. but were only
read of, not copied. over here. There
are some things whose changelessness
is positively unassailable, and one of
these is q white wedding gown.-Ex-

Snake Charming.

A snake charmer can, by simple mo-
ton of his hand, make moving snake
stop instantly. The reason is this:
The snake is most timid animal. His
eyes, while dull to color and form, are
quick to motion, especially if it is rapid.
If any large thing moves very quickly
too near him, he gets frightened and
scurrie off. while at certain distances
the motion stops him if he be moving.
He stops from establishment, fear or
the wish to see what it is that moves.
Hence he glides on unconscious of the
charmers presence near him SO long as
the latter remains quiet: the snake does
not know him from a tree or a rock.
But when he gives sudden evidence OF
life the snake is astonished and immedi-
ately remains stock still.
In India and Africa the charmers pre-
tend the snakes dance to the music, but
they do not, for they never hear it. A
snake has no external ears, and perhaps
gives evidence of sound only through its
skin. when sound causes bodies in con-
tact with him to vibrate.
They hear also through the nerves of
the tongue. but do not at all comprehend
sound as we do. However, the snakes
eyes are very much alive to the motions
of the charmer, or to the moving drum
sticks of his confederate, and being
alarmed he attempts to strike.
A dancirg cobra land no other snakes
dance) is simply cobra alarmed and in
a posture to attack. He is not dancing
to the music, but is making ready to as
sail the charmer.- Family
