A. NJ. Lamb, market gardener in.
Pennsylvania, cleared $500 on five,
acres of cabbage and five acres of
onions. The reason of this, he says, was
because Salzer's seeds are so extremely
early and wondrously productive.
Lightning Cabbage aud King of the
Earliest Onions he had in the market
three weeks ahead of any other home
grown sorts, and consequently received
fancy prices. Salzer sends S5 packages

A Weird Love Story.

1.-The strangest test of will power and
endurance ever made" said E. D. Con-
sauls Of the City of Mexico, at the
Southern, twas in Mexico, the charac-
ters being Mexican girl and an Amer
lean man. They were lovers, and the
girls parents refused their consent to
the union, insisting that she should
marry wealthy Mexican sutton. At
the suggestion Of the girl they agreed
to die together, and to test the strength
and endurance of each others love
they chose means of suicide unlike
any ever dreamed of before. Food
and fruit were placed on a table in the
center of a room, occupied by both, the
girl having escaped from her home, but
being unwilling to elope with her lover.
1t was agreed that they should starve
to death with plenty before them, and
should either succumb to nature and
partake of the food then both were re-
leased from the bond of death, but there
should be an everlasting separation. For
10 days they endured the pangs OF hun
ger without murmur or thought of
wavering from their purpose to die to-
gether. The twelfth day the father of
the girl discovered her whereabouts,
and breaking the door they were car
ried out, too faint to stand alone. It
took them several days to recover their
strength, and when they did they were
married. This is true statement, and
the American is living with his Mex
lean wife today Louis Globe
Democrat.

Counterfeit Coins.

Within the last few years numbers of
forgeries Of extremely rare coins in the
British museum and in private collec-
lions have been sold by auction in Lon
don. So good is their execution that it
seems probable that means have been
devised for casting steel dies on plaster
casts or Of hardening electrotype dies.
The manufacture Of rare ''siege pieces, -
carried on in one of our midland towns,
shows far lower amount Of skill.
When genuine but defaced coins are
restruck with new impressions, it is
very difficult to discover the fraud.
Some genuine ancient coins are surfrap-
PEGS in this manner-as, for instance, a
whole class of Jewish coins which are
struck on Roman silver denarii. But
when the image and superscription Of
William III can be discerned underly-
ing the device on rare crown piece Of
Elizabeth. the question of it's authentic
ity is soon solved. Maya

The Law of the Jungle.

The law of the jungle, which never
orders anything without reason. for
bids every beast to eat man except when
he is killing to snow his children how
to kill, and then he must hunt outside
the hunting grounds of his pack or
tribe. The real reason for this is that
man killing means, sooner or later, the
arrival of white men on elephants, with
guns, and hundreds of brown men with
gongs and rockets and torches. Then
everybody in the jungle suffers. The
reason the beasts give among them
selves is that man is the weakest and
most defenseless of all living things,
and it is nsportsmanlike to touch him.
They say, too and it is true that man
eaters become NANCY and lose their
teeth. -Rudyard Kipling in St. Mich
olas.

"A Traveller Tells OF One He Found In an
Egyptian DomiciIe.
We went into the hut after some
hesitation the dragoman whispered
there were ladies there and found a
vigorous old man, telling his Mussul-
man beads crosslegged on mud bench,
and on the floor bent over the fire the
oldest looking human being ever saw
alive.
'Mummies I have seen, and wondered
not that they were dead, but in what
part of her withered desiccated frame
that old woman found space to keep the
stern vital energies that lined her grim,
carved face I can scarcely guess. She
looked no more living than seaweed
does dried and stretched on paper. Her
arms, her legs-thrust almost into the
fre-were so shrunk that the long
leathern flesh and faccid muscles hung
round them like dangling shreds on
sticks.
"Round her neck were beads of
wood, and round her wrists leathern
bracelets though, to be sure, I cannot
feel certain they were not folds of skin
and on her face lurked not only lines,
but gillies and passages, they seemed
50 deep and fallen. But for the occa-
sional upturned glance Of her cold, I'M
questioning eye I could not have sup
posed her anything else than one Of the
earliest and best preserved of the re-
hottest queens of Egypt.
1.-THE old man gave us lusty well
come and sent for milk and dates and
filled our pockets. He showed US his
long spear that hung against the wall
and told me with proud gesture that
he had often killed his man, but more
often with a sword, and taking me by
the shoulder showed me fercely how
he used to do it. He was 80 years old
and had never been farther from home
than Assouan, and then only once.
''All his sons sat and stood round us,
and in the background against the mud
granary white teeth glimmered and the
broad, black faces of the women shone.
I asked him what present he would
like, and he asked for little rice and
a little coffee. All the time he clutched
and fingered his Muslin rosary, which,
when l admired, he wanted me to &C.

the dahbeah and carried off the coffee
and rice in envelopes, to which I add

A BoROENTOWN MYSTERY
A Young Woman Found Ia Her Home
with 3 Fraotured sknII.

BoRDENTowN, N. j., May e5.-Nfiss Liz
Eie Holloway, 10 years old, was found ly
ing unconscious at her home on Park
street, with three CHASTITY wounds in her
head. She died without regaining con-
seriousness. The case is shrouded in mys-
terry, as the young woman's parents were
absent at the time. William Massey,
boarder in the house, is under arrest on
suspicion.
Latest developments only serve to
deepen the mystery BY the autopsy per
formed a motive for the murder Of the
girl was discovered The kull was found
20 have been fractured, and death had re
suited from the blows. A further exam
nation revealed the fact that the girl was
pregnant, and that she had been in that
condition for some time.
So far the police have been unable 10
find any evidence Of the guilt of Massey.
Massey stated that he was in the house at
the time the assault was committed, but
that he had seen no one or had met no one
when he ran to the assistance Of the girl
on hearing her scream. The police, after
a close investigation, have arrived at the
conclusion that IL would be impossible for
any one TO have committed the murder
without being bespattered with blood.
They believe that If they can find the man
who is responsible for the ruin Of the girl
they will have the man who committed
the murder.
