Pussy's Ride In a Paddle Box.

Steamer City of Newport on her trip to
this city from Newport on Monday had q
passenger which escaped the notice Of the
purser and evaded the payment of fare.
On the arrival of the steamer here a pecul-
lar noise was heard in the paddle box,
and investigation revealed the presence Of
q very disconsolate and much bedraggled
cat, whose appearance gave conclusive evil
dcnce that it had made the entire trip Of
30 miles from the summer capital in that
rather unpleasant portion Of tho craft.
1t was so wet and discouraged looking
that it's own mother would not have recog-
nized it, but after it had been taken out
by removing some of the planks and had
been dried it was found to be the pet feline
of Agent Simmons of the Newport end Of
the line 1t didn't look very happy when
it was discovered, but was soon restored to
it's equanimity and rested contentedly on
the boat and made the return passage
down the bay in more comfortable quar-
ters.
The cat probably crawled into the pad
die box Sunday while the steamer was tied
to the wharf at Newport, entering through
the open space on the outside, and was
either unable to find its way out or was
caught mapping when the boat started. L.

ouestions Asked of oracles.

Dodona was the Oldest and one of the
most famous of all the oracular seats, and
M. Carapanos was fortunate enough to
bring to light a few very interesting In
quiries They were all written on thin
sheets Of lead, and in many cases tho in
scription has become in whole or In part
illegible, but there are few which arc al
most or quite perfect In many cases the
inquirers are anxious to know what they
are to do to please the gods or which gods
they are to try to please particularly.
A woman asks to which god she Is to
sacrifice in order that she may recover
from some unnamed illness. Eubandros
and his wife want to know Ito what gods,
heroes or divinities they are to pray and
sacrifice in order that they and their house
hold may do well now and for all time :"
Then there are parents who want to know
what they can do for the health Of their
child, another pair who ask If they are
going to have other children than the one
they are already favored with, while in
one or two instances putative fathers in
quired whether the honor Of paternity is
not being improperly thrust upon them.
Perhaps the most curious of all those
which M. Carapanos has given us is an in
quiry from man called Agis He is anx-
ious to find out whether some missing pill
lows and bedclothes were stolen or wheth-
er he had lost them himself. Macmillan g

Didn,t Like the Notice.

The author of Lorna Doone'" has q
decided repugnance to anything that
savors Of personal advertisement. Only
one portrait Of him, that which appears
in the cheap edition of his novels, has
ever been taken, and it was with the
greatest difficulty that he could be in
duced to sit for that. Not very long ago
an enterprising bookstall keeper in the
district where Mr.. Blackmore lives
pasted up notice announcing "A new
story by our local novelist. F" Mr.. Black
more, SO the tale goes, happened to pass
soon afterward and saw the placard. He
was furious and ordered it to be at once
pulled down. There was certainly some
justification for Mr.. Blackmore's action,
for, whatever else he is, he cannot be
correctly described as a "local novel;

Id snpports Avn Claims.

Ore OF the most remarkable cases brought
to the notice OF the public is that of Mr.. j..
8. Beach, Of Stone Ridge, N. T., who for
years suffered from stone in the kidney.
Early in August. he was induced to try DR..
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. By the
18th cf September he voided a good sized
stone, and he has been well man since. DR..
David Kennedy's Fayorite Remedy is not a
mere soother ofpain, but by its Alternative
action pnrfies the blood, dissolves and caus-
the expulsion of gravel and stone from the
kidneys and bladder. The testimony of hun
dreds vouches for this. It will build up q

THE advertising agency Of N. W. Aver &
Son. of Philadelphia, is unquestionably the
largest and probably the best equipped Of
any in the United States. 1t has more and
larger patrous than any other, and, taking
one thing with another, it is questionable
whether they are not entitled to the credit Of
securing for their patrons better service than
can be counted on from any other.
It should be, and doubtless is, = great
source of pride and satisfaction TO Mr.. Aver
and Mr.. Mckinney that they have been able,
while remaining in Philadelphia. to build up
large advertising business than has ever
been secured befor by any advertising
agency in New York or elsewhere.

The Cabala, or Kabbala.

The Cabala, or Kabbala, was the oral law
of the ancient Jews, which for thousands
of years was delivered from father to son
by word Of mouth only. The rabbinical
tradition Is to the effect that 1T was first
given to Adam by an angel. From Adam
It passed to Shem, and from Shem to
Abraham, and from the latter to the whole
line Of patriarchs. Some of the ancient
writers have produced proof to show that
the Cabala was not SO much Of a law as
has been claimed, but was simply a super
stition concerning the mythical properties
Of certain combinations Of letters and
words. ST. Louis Republic.
