UNAPPREclATED BANANAS.
Some superstitIons About Haddocks and
Fern Roots.

Some Superstitions About Haddocks and
Fern Roots.
The banana possesses wonderful sus-
tanning properties, and yet years ago,
in the warm countries where it flour
ishes, the banana was thought of so
lightly that it was allowed to waste If
not eaten by the cattle.
The plant itself was valued simply as
a shade for coffee trees, between rows
of which it was planted.
Somebody once told me, says writer
in the Gentlcwornan, that the Span
iards used to regard the banana as a
forbidden fruit, because they detected
in its heart the transverse section of
the cross.
remember, too, how one of my early
governesses used to delight me by
showing me the cross and the apostles
in the center of the passion flower; and
the other day a friend told me of some
curious symbolical marks to be found
at the back of the neck of the haddock,
indentations similar to those that
might be caused by the finger and
thumb, the supposition being that the
haddock was one of the fishes picked
out of the net on the occasion of the
miraculous draft of fishes.

THE VAMPIRE BAT.
A Dread Creature That Is Common
India.

A Dread Creature That Is Common In
India.
have always despised bats, said a
Cleveland man recently, and it always
sends a shudder over me whenever one
of the hideous creatures approaches
me. The bats of this country, how
ever, are not to be dreaded in compar-
ison to those of the vampire species
which abound in India. just imagine
big mouse with a horn on his head
like rhinocerous, furnish him with a
pair of demon-like wings, and you have
very good picture of this latter kind.
The natives dread the vampire bat on
account of his blood-sucking propensi-
ty. In the sultry nights he fans the
heated sleeper with his wings while
his needle-like teeth are being in
serted into the veins of his victim,
quenching his thirst for blood with
such gentleness that it is only by some
fortunate chance that he is discovered
before the mischief is done. 1t is a
Observation-Disclosures fact that if an indi-
vidual is once bled by vampire he is
invariably chosen, in preference to all
others equally exposed for a subseqent
attack, and even if he were to move
ten or twenty miles away, no i'm
munity is gained thereby, as the bat is
sure to follow him and keep up his
blood-thirsty attack until his victim
succumbs or the animal is discovered
and killed. Cattle and horses, from
being more exposed, are more frequent
1y chosen as the subjects of attack by
these loathsome creatures.

CHAMPIONS IN THEIR LINE.
Absent-NIInded People Who Were Simply
Wonders.

Wonders.
They are telling story of Dutch
man who presented himself at the reg
istar's Office recently to obtain license
for his approaching marriage, and who,
on being asked the name of the bride,
was compelled to confess that it had
quite escaped him, and he had to re-
turn home for the necessary informa-
tion. It's a pretty good story of ab-
sence of mind, but there are others on
record that are even better. There
have been cases where persons have
even forgotten their own names.
Lessing, the historian, was subject
to the most wonderful fits of abstrac-
ton. One night, returning home late,
he rang the front door bell, and when
a servant called out from an upper win
dow that the professor was not at
home, he said: 'sAll right, I'll come
again" and walked away.
There was an English clergyman,
Rev. George Harvest, who was engaged
to a daughter of the bishop of London,
but on the day of his wedding went
fishing, and forgetful of the appointed
hour did not appear at the nuptials.
The lady broke off the match.

THE NEWFOUNDLAND DOG.
He Is the Nobiest species Of the whole
Canine Race.

He Is the N0blest Species OF the Whole
Canine Race.
The Newfoundland dog takes his
name from the island where he is sup
posed to have originated. Many, how
ever, believe that the Norsemen, who
discovered America in the year 1000, in
troduced this dog in Newfoundland
He is by some classified among the
wolf-dogs, while others, on account of
his large pendulous ears, say that he
should not belong to this family, but
that he and the St. Bernards should
occupy place by themselves.
The Newfoundland, says Harper's
Young People, since his introduction
in England, has improved in appear
ance, and is now larger and heavier.
In Newfoundland and Labrador these
dogs are used as beasts of burden,
drawing considerable loads of wood
and provisions on sledges. Their feet
are partially webbed, and therefore
they are most excellent water dogs
The scent is not strong, and as the dog
is slow and clumsy, he is not valuable
to the hunter, except as a retriever
when speed is not required.
In the island of Newfoundland this
dog is almost totally black, but the
English varieties are usually black and
white. AS a watchdog the Newfound-
land is-only second to the mastiff. He
is amiable to children and small dogs.
Kept in confinement he often gets cross
and ill-tempered, and flies at those for
whom he has previously shown the
greatest regard.
Where dog cannot be allowed to
run, and must be chained up, the New
foundland should not be kept This
dog is great life-saver, and by in
stinct will jump into the water to save
even an enemy from drowning.

Steward oF AM OCEAN LINER.
A Position of Responsibility with an Army
of Subordinates to Oversee.

A Position of Responsibility with an Army
of Subordinates to Oversee.
It may surprise SOME old globe trot-
ters to know that the big ocean grey
hounds running between New York
and the European ports carry on an av
erage nineteen thousand pieces of
sterling silverware for their table serv-
ice, and that this large amount of plate
is handled during the voyage by from
two hundred to two hundred and forty
walters or stewards, ''as they are called
on shipboard. The chief steward is
responsible for every piece, says the
New York Mail and Express. He must
be a man of quick powers of observa-
ton, student of human nature and be
up to all the little devices of a small
army of subordinates usually keener
and quicker witted than those found
ashore in the same calling. 1t is a
busy day for the steward twenty-four
hours before the time set for departure.
He has purchased or contracted for all
the supplies and an assistant sees that
the contracts are fulfilled. But his per-
sonal attention must be given to silver
ware. He keeps regular debit and
credit account and can tell to tooth
pick just what he will start away with.
Oh GAc wy age passengers 1rS dpO W
lose spoons or forks or other ware by
accident, and occasionally gay blade
may think it amusement to toss sugar
bowl or half dozen knives through
port hole. 1t is needless to say that he
furnishes quid pro quo before he
goes ashore. When the other side is
reached the chief steward spends day
in balancing accounts. He started with
so much, and SO much should be on
hand. If there is difference he seeks
to find it, and if he can't find it he
''makes good himself. The response
bility of such a position naturally COM
mands a high salary, and every chief
steward on every ocean steamship rum
ming from this port is, without excep-
ton, a man of unimpeachable integ-
rity. The extraordinary record is that
in thirty years there have been but
two accusations of a betrayal of trust.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local rem
edies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh, manufactured by F. j.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure in the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to teaspoonful. It acts directly on the
blood'and mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
