How Leap Year Started.

Ham SOB, in his "Medii CGVI. Kalan-
darium," quotes the following quaint
tradition from an old Saxon treatise:
Some assert that the bissextus or leap
day comes through this, that Joshua
prayed to God that the sur might stand
still for II days length, that he might
sweep the heather from the land that
Cod had granted him and his followers
It is rue that the sun did stand still fos
one days length overthe city of Gebaon.
but the day went forward in the same
anne as other days. And the bissex-
tus is not through that, as some do
THINK" In France and some parts of
Spain ana Portugal there exists a ira
dition known as 1.-THE ghost of leap
year" Believers in this say that a mar
vellous monster annually appears on
leap day and disarranges human affairs
for the remainder of the year.-St. Louis
Republic.

Cash Girls.

While talking with James Miller, who
has beer a floor walker in one of New
York's big emporiums, but has set up a
store in a neighboring town for himself,
he said to me: "The newspaper which
will take up the cause of the immature
children who are engaged a cash girls
in the large stores of New York will be
doing a great work for humanity. Ihave
no means of knowing how many cash
girls there are in New York, but l should
say about 90, 900. Fully one-half Of them
are under fourteen years Of age, and
many ever under twelve. They are not
governed by the factory laws of the
states which prohibit the employment of
children below certain ages in factory
work, and they are subjected to drudgery
that is sometimes terrible.
''If l was obliged to make a choice for
my own children of such ages, between
a factory and one of the big stores, /
should choose the factory, where their
labor would be of SUCH character as to
keep them busy all the time. In the
stores they have idle moments, when
they learn all sorts of wicEedness New

The Wills of Noah and Jacob,

The origin of testaments is lost in OBJ
security, but doubtless they followed soon
after the first institution of private prop
erty. Eusebius says that Noah made a
will soon after the food wherein he dis
posed of the whole world. He was GER
tainly possessed of a considerable landed
estate, but Eusebius' story of the tesla
ment in writing and witnessed under his
seal needs confirmation.
In the forty-eighth chapter of Genesis,
however, we do find mention of a will,
wherein Jacob ~bequeathed to his son 10
seph twice as much as to his other chill
dren. This was not a testament in writ
ing, but verbal or ''nuncupattve" tesla
ment, declared by the testator sin ex.
tremis" before witnesses, and depending
upon oral testimony.
Such ''nuncupative" testaments were
at one time recognized in English law,
but in the eighteenth century Black
stone says they were fallen into disuse
and hardly yer heard of.-All the Year
Round.

A Tanners Strange Infatuation.

The incident in reference to the wheel
wright's infatuation for Miss Gabrielle
Greeley, even after she decided to marry,
led to the publication of a similar story
in Halifax, N. S. When Professor
Schurman was dean of the Dalhousie
college a Pictou county tanner conceived
the idea that Mrs. Schurman was in love
with him, and would desert her hus-
bard to become his wife. When DR..
Sckurman became dean of Cornell uni
versity the tanner visited New York
state every few months to fondly gaze
upon the lady on the street or in her
pew. The tanner even went to the ia
ther of the lady, George Munro, the
New York publisher, and declared his
conviction that his passion was recipro-
Gated, and asked him to interfere in his
behalf.-Cor. Chicago Tribune.

4 Desperate way to Raise Money.

about the most desperate thing | ever
heard q u the way Of money raising
cane to my professional notice some
years ago" said a detective to me.
Compliant wasmade at the Office that
q diamond stud, valued at over a thou
sand dollars, had been stolen from a GER
tain up town house. I was detailed on
tie case, and after a few hours found the
stone, which had been pawned for 500.
When stolen property Is found at a
p2wnbroker's the amount advanced on it
is returned to him, either by the owner
o. the thief, if his resources will allow
Of such a thing. The law protects the
broker. and it is proper that it should,
but the capture and conviction Of the
thief is a necessary factor in such cases.
"This time no trace of the burglar
could be found.
THE owners proved property and the
brilliant was returned to them. It rep
resented at this stage a clear gain for
the rascal and a dead loss for the pawn
broker.
1T was not long before we had our
man, though, and then there was prompt
conviction, a sentence of one year in the
EInira reformatory and a vain search for
tae owners of the property.
The matter dropped from my mind in
the rush of other business, until one day
[ learned the secret of the whole opera
ton. The theft had been the deed of the
son of the robbed family. They were
sorely in need of money, and had resort.
ed to this way of getting it. When called
on to reimburse the luckless pawnbrokel
they were apparently penniless. The
thief had then gone free, and all the par.
ties interested had dropped from sight.
THAT fellow was paid, or rather paid
himself, at the rate of three dollars pei
day during his stay in Elmira."-NeW
York Herald.
