They had been married three months, and
the odor of the orange blossoms was still
sweet in their nostrils. 1t was all lovely
dream. She was so kind, and he was so
kind. She was 'angel," and he was all the
dear names she could think of. Never
frown, never a cross word had broken the
soft, even echo of the marriage bells. Thus
they believed that they had come to live in
Ethiopia forever and ever, and they went
and told all their friends about it, especial
ly those who were single.
He came home one evening with the news
that he had bought tickets to the theater.
To see her thank him was to behold beau
tiful illustration of the poets two souls
theory. After supper he went out and did
not return until few minutes before the
time to start She was just putting on her
hat
MY dear" he said, II wish you would
not wear that hat. l do not like you in it,
Won't you wear the black one?"
why, certainly, dearest" she cooed in
reply. II will do whatever you say, though
the black hat is not suitable. You know
had the white hat made especially for the
theater. 1t is suitable at no other time"
II did not know that. Wear the white
one, of course"
mo, want to please you. l don't care
if people do say | am 'tacky.'"
"Then wear the white hat. That will
please me-
You know it won't You are simply
making a self sacrifice"
ibid l say sop
mo, dear, butt
But nothing. Wear the white and say
no more about it"
"You needn't get cross" the cooling all
out of her voice. I'M wear the black hat. 7"
Gross? Do you think really want you
to wear the black hat?"
"Yes, or you would not have talked so
much, was her crisp reply. I'm goingto
wear it too"
"Wear the white one."
~ won't"
you will" And so on until they barely
reached the theater in time. Now, which
hat do you think she wore?-Louisville

Effects of Exercise.

Muscular contraction exerts a pressure
upon the veins and lymphatics, thus push
ing forward and facilitating the flow of the
venous blood and lymph to the heart. In
this manner the excretion of the products
of tissue waste is enhanced. These mat
tiers are washed out of the tissues by the
blood and lymph, and after their return to
the heart pass through the lungs where
the carbonic acid is given off. then through
the general circulation, the remaining sub
stances being eliminated by the skin and
kidneys.
When these matters, some of which aMt
highly poisonous, collect in abnormal
quantities in the system, they become
more or less dangerous: even such mild
symptoms as headache. drowsiness and
general lassitude in those who lead Sc
dentary life may probably. in many in
stances, be traced to their toxic effects.
By muscular exercise, which hastens the.
elimination of these substances, therefore.
many slight ailments which, however. are
sufficient to make labor burdensome and
rob life of many of its pleasures, may be-
avoided.-Dr. j. NJ. Rice in Popular
Science Monthly.

English and American Land owners.

English and American Land Owners.
There is a constant feud between the
suburban residents and the Sunday ex-
cursionists. The suburban resident goes
to New York in the morning and goes
back in the afternoon, except on Sun
day, when he stays at home. 1t would
suit him if the Sunday train service
were almost entirely stopped, except one
morning train out into the country and
one evening train back to let his per-
sonal friends go out and spend the day
with him. The Sunday excursionist
represents to him concentration of the
destructive forces of mankind so he
goes to Tuxedo or Wave Crest or some
reservation where excursionists are not
permitted to go, and when he gets
rich enough he builds a place in the
midst of grounds wide enough to hide
him from the road, and puts out watch
men to prevent people he does not want
from coming in and tramping on the
grass.
This is more an American than an
English feeling. In England almost all
of the show country places are open to
visitors under restrictions which are
generally observed. 1t would be re-
garded as an improper and unsocial
thing for an Englishman with a fine
country place to drive people off the
grounds. Instead of that he welcomes
visitors and provides guides to take
them around and look after them.-New
York Sun.

KILLED by a skyrocket.

An impromptu celebration that was
held in honor of the arrival of delega-
ton of Turner's from Freeport, Ills, was
suddenly brought to close by the al
most instant killing Of man. A sky
rocket, supposed to have been set off by
a crowd of young boys, penetrated his
forehead, and part of the stick was
broken off and left imbedded in his
brain.
AS the procession reached the corner
of Blue Island avenue and Polk street
Philip Knopp, who had been watching
the parade from the sidewalk, was struck
by skyrocket. The mans head and
face were covered with blood, and
Officer Halle, calling assistance, carried
him into neighboring drugstore. DR..
Lahey was summoned, and Knopp was
sent at once to the county hospital. On
the way DR.. Lahey extracted part of the
stick, eight inches in length and three
eighths of an inch square. 1t had en-
tered just above the right eye, and had
gone through the brain until the end
was blunted against the back of the
skull. Knopp lived only few moments.

The SeasheIl DeIusion.

'They used to tell me when l was a
boy" said middle aged man, "that if
would hold up to my ear a seashell of a
certain kind would hear in it the muir
muring of the sea. have tried it many
times, and it never failed.
"Now comes my son, a boy of 10, who
holds up tumbler at the dinner table
and says:
"'Pop, do you want to hear the sea
murmurP
"And says yes, and then he holds the
mouth of the tumbler to his ear, and do
likewise with mine, and bless my hearth
there's the murmur, sure enough.
"And then the boy goes on to talk
about sound waves and to tell me just
what makes the sound in the tumbler
and all that sort of thing. And say to
myself it's fine thing, no doubt, the adj
vanced education that the boys of the
present generation are getting, and yet
am not altogether pleased to have one
of the pleasantest of old fancies disposed
of so summarily. like tumblers well
enough to drink out of, but think I'd
rather have my sea murmurings out of
a seashell. New York Sun.

A DAY DREAM.
IDAHO

When high above the busy street
Some hidden voice poured Mary's song.
Oh, then my soul forgot the beat
And roaring of the city's throng.
Then Boston bells and cries fell low,
Blent to a far and murmured tone
That changed and chimed in mystic fiow
Weaving a spell for me alone.
No more the towering blocks were there.
No longer pressed the crowds around.
All freely roamed a magic air
Within what vast horizons bound;
Beneath a sky Of lucent gray
Far stretched the circled northern plain,
Wild sunfowers decked a prairie gay,
And one dear autumn came again.
Before me trod a winsome maid,
And. oh, the mien with which she stepti
Her soft, brown hair without braid
Hiding the shoulders where it swept,
And glancing backward now she gave
To me that smile so kind and wise,
The radiant look from eyes SO grave
That spoke her Utmost paradise.
Divinely on my daughter went,
The wild flowers leaning from her tread,
Dreaming she lived watched intent
Till, ah, the gracious vision fed.
The plain gave place to blocks of gray.
The sunlit heaven to murky cloud,
Staring l stood in common day
And never knew the streets so loud.

Making a hin TO Tremble.

Curious and interesting is the fact that
the playing of children on the slopes OF
Flamsteed hill, on which the observatory
of Greenwich stands, sets the hill into
vibration to such an extent as to interrupt
observations which depend upon the mo
tionlessness of tray of mercury
Hundreds of children are accustomed in
the evening to romp upon the hill outside
the observatory walls Joining hands they
run headlong down the slope and tumble
in a heap at its foot. The result is that
the solid hill is thrown into such a state OF
tremor that the vibrations continue to be
felt at the observatory until long past mid
night and for many hours after the tired
children have been asleep.-Youth's Com

Naturally Lightheaded.

1.-THE war was responsible for many queer
things" said DR.. Eugene Hardcastle. St.
Paul surgeon. up in Northern Minnesota
lives man who entered the service in 1881
He was very dull fellow. almost fool.
During one of the sorties made by the Con-
federatcs at Donelson he received buck
shot in the head. The surgeon could not
find it and the wound healed. He returned
to duty one of the brightest men in his
company, and in time became second lieu
tenant. At the close of the war he re-
turned home, married a superior woman,
prospered in business and was elected
sheriff of his county. Three years ago his
head began to give him great deal of
trouble He came to St. Paul and locat-
ed the buckshot and removed it. He is
now as healthy as ever, but is the same
stupid dolt that he was before the fight at
Fort Donelson. st. Louis Globe Demo

Mr. arcNutt,s Speech.

Among the famous men of Vicksburg
before the war, one of the most prominent
was Mr.. McNutt. Two qualities marked
him out as an individual type. The first
was his personal cowardice. Still more in.
dividual was his power of setting aside in
his own favor those prejudices of the pub
lie mind which would have crushed any
other man. He was at one time a candi-
date for United States senator. The OPP
posing candidate was General Quitman.
In speech McNutt said: Fellow citi-
zens, understand that General Quitman
is now in the eastern counties reviewing
his militia, and that he says when he meets
me he intends to whip me. Now | tell
him, at this far off distance, that if he
whips me it will be because he can outrun
me, for have great horror for the bar
barous practice of personal violence"
Such a speech from any other man
would have won him the contempt of his
listeners, but it was McNutt, and people
laughed and applauded.-"Re collections

ArtifciaIly Dyed Flowers.

Are artifcially colored flowers danger
Gus? This question has been submitted
to the Conseil d'Hygiene, Paris, by the
project of the Seine, and the answer is
that they are not. Most of the dyes used
are harmless. and in the case of zinc
greens or anilines containing a trace of
arsenic the quantity in the flower is so.
small that if it were sucked and swallowed
it would not harm any one. When the.
dye mounts by the stem the end is cut off.
and there remains very little in the flower
The Conseil expresses the opinion that
there is no reason to interdict the dyeing
of the flowers on the score of the public
health.-London Globe.

Racing ON Wooden Legs.

A race ON wooden legs from Bordeaux
to Biarritz and back, distance of 303
miles, was begun yesterday. Eighty
one silt runners entered for this race
left the Hotel de la Gironde at s o'clock
yesterday morning, being played off
by brass band. They were accom-
panied by party of bicyclists. whose
duty was to see that fair play was OBJ
served. Among the racers was the
Arcachon baker, Silvain Dornon, who
travelled on stills, or claimed to have
done so, from Paris to Moscow.
A quarter of an hour after the silt
racers had set out from Bordeaux a
party of eighteen women and young
girls, also mounted on stills. left Bor-
deaux for Cerans, having undertaken to
run there and back, distance of fifty
miles, in the day.-London News.

Old toys so very seldom survive the
rough work which their possessors give
them that if by any chance they do
weather the storm they become extremely
valuable. A collection of old playthings
many of which belonged to royal chill
dren, has just been sold at the Hotel
Drouot, and some of the articles fetched
prices which even their artistic merit
and their strange survival of the vicissi-
tudes would hardly have seemed to
merit. For instance, little doll. rather
less than foot high, but clad in pan
oply of steel, EARNED at all points ex-
actly cap-a-pie," but perfectly modelled
and made at the time when Louis XIII
sat on the throne of France. sold for els
francs; and even this price was eclipsed
by that given for tiny set of carriages
carved in wood and accompanied by
little wooden soldiers, made not consule
plauco, but when Napoleon was first
consul, which brought in neary 1000
francs. A miniature kitchen, interest
ing as being an exact model of that use
fal HOUSEHOLD apartment, tempo Louis
XVI, and little jointed doll, sixteen
inches high, dressed in a broche silk
Vatican dress, fetched $40 francs and
10 francs respectively. Many other
toys belonging to bygone epochs sold at
almost fancy prices. Mes

The Production Of Paper.

The production of paper is perhaps more
closely regulated by the law of supply and
demand than any other manufacturing
process In the earlier days of paper
making there was little demand for it, as
it was necessary to write books by hand or
to print them from engraved plates. The
invention of the printing press created the
first demand for paper which caused its
manufacture to become profitable indus
try. The hand method of paper making
was followed for many years and discon-
tinued only upon the invention of the
cylinder press.
This invention gave such an impetus to
the distributing of printed matter that
hand paper makers were unable to supply
the demand; hence a new order of things
was inaugurated and machinery for the
making of paper was perfected with great
rapidity. -Engineering Magazine.
