1t was during the progress of the pic
mic given in Jurnigan's Grove by the
Methodist Sabbath School OF Hawville,
Oklahoma.
Alkali Ike, who sings bass in the choir,
and Miss Lille Cusack, the soprano, had
wandered short distance from the scene
Of the festivities and seated themselves
on a moss covered log which lay at the
foot of tall tree.
The gallanps arm had strayed around
the malden's slender waist and fingered
there, apparently to the profound salts
faction OF both persons, and Isaac had
asked. for the sixteenth time:

Cling closer to him. II love you gooder
than any-oh, mercy, do believe there
is some kind OF horrid animal up in this
tree!"

at the same time drawing his revolver

Like Sweet Bells tangled Out of Tune"
Weak nerves respond harshly and inhar-
moniously to slight shocks, which would
produce no affect upon strong ones. The
shrill outcry of a child, tho slamming of
door, the rafting of a vehicle over un-
even pavement and other trifling dis
urbances effect weak nerves-sensitive
nerves, sorely. Nervousness is largely
attributable to dyspepsia and non-assimi-
lation Of the food, very usual concomi-
similation renewed by Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters soon begets nerve
quietude and sound repose. The great
Alternative causes the liver and bowels to
unite in cooperative harmony with the

Maurice Barr Is poultry fancier.
So are several of his neighbors. These
were having more success than Mau-
rice, especially those with the same
strain Of blood.
Maurice could not account for the
double fact that he was getting no
eggs and his neighbors were busy
with a couple of incubators on any
other hypothesis than that a neigh
Dor was collecting Maurices hen
fruit.
Maurice had had a fine dog, but this
had been killing chickens and eating
eggs. He could not afford to keep a
dog.
Goats are a grand invention, and
Maurice concluded to profit by the
discovery. So he bought a flock of
four goats from neighbor and
turned them into his barnyard. Two
of these were billies.
One evening Maurice was attracted
TO the barnyard by the cries of his
aged mother-in-law, whose rheuma-
tism is so bad she has great difficulty
in walking.
He rushed to her aid and found her
safely perched on stump nearly
four feet high with a billygoat on
each side of her and her apron full of
eggs. The conundrum was solved.
The poor old woman never had an
appetite to eat when the others did,
and the cause became apparent. She
admitted that she was the robber all
along of the hen fruit.-Indianapolis

Flrlnr Powers Of enc swallow.

Not only do swallows capture all
their insect food while on the wing,
they also invariably drink while fly
ing, and they even feed their young
on the wing, especially the house
martins, although it is very difficult
to observe them performing the feat,
so quickly is it done. AS the young
birds arrive at full growth they soon
become impatient of confinement
and sit all day with their heads out
of the entrance to the nest, where
the dams, by clinging to the nest,
supply them with food from morn
ing till night, and it is during this
period that the young are fed on the
wing by the parents. Then again,
the house swallow viii wash itself
by dropping into the water asst flies.

"soisnos" In Everrthinr.

There is much confusion in the
popular mind as to the application of
such terms as science, scientific, sci
entifcally. Ayoung gentleman from
the university lately assured me that
cricket is played more scientifically
than formerly, and that there is a
premium of per cent in favor of
scientific whist as compared with or
binary good play.
A writer in a recent number of a
chess magazine refers to the royal
game as "a science, and an exact
science too" In a match at drafts
the champion was said to have
brought so much science to bear upon
this play as to make 81 drawn games
before one won game was scored. In
the palmy days of the prize ring,
1.-The Pet of the Fancy" was said to
display more science than Ben, the

Arsenic Eaters.

The majority of the fashionable
beauties of Sydney, according to an
English observer, have peculiarly
delicate compilations, languid ex
pressions, fragile physiques and die
away look in the eyes, which are
more suited to the enervated temper
ament of an old civilization than the
active vitality of a new world. 1t
was easy even for a novice to detect
that these ladies owed a good deal to
their perruquier The mystery of
this curious combination of prema-
ture badness and unusual delicacy
of complexion was explained by the
fact that these women ate arsenic III
order to produce an aristocratic pal
lor and languor and found to their
horror that another effect of tho
drug was to make their hair drop
out. Valuing their compilations
above their hair, however, they sacri-
feed the one to the other. What
woman will endure for her complex
ion may be estimated by this, and
also by the fact that these arsenic
eaters rarely live past 45.-San Fran

Finnish Slave AIarts,

A regular slave mart still exists in
many country districts of Finland.
Once year such paupers, aged peo-
pie and lunatics as cannot support
themselves are put up at public auc-
ton and consigned to those people
who will board them at the lowest
price offered by the parish authori-
ties. The helpless creatures are made
to work as much as possible by the
owners, who have the right to chas-
tise them, and who are usually most
inhuman in their treatment of the
wretched lunatics.
The aged folk are physically unable
to perform much hard work, but the
lunatics, though mentally deranged,
are often bodily capable of undergo
ing a great deal of strain. Conse-
quently thefarmer shows little mercy
toward them, harnesses them to his
plows and thrashes them with his
whip as if they were oxen, while the
piteous appeals and driveling wan
derings of the idiots do not soften the
blows. -Pearson's Weekly.

A PACIFIC Ocean Basin.

Submarine soundings, which have
recently been made with extraordi-
nary care and precision, rendered
practicable by means of superior in
struments in hands most experienced
and expert, show the existence in the
Pacific of a trough or basin of extraor-
dinary depth and extent along the
east coast of Japan and the Kurile
islands, and under the Kuro Siwo,
or Japan or black stream, the basin
exceeding any similar depression yet
found in any other region of the
great ocean.
In a run of 30 miles after leaving
the coast of Japan, the surveying
officers for the proposed transpacific
telegraph cable found that the ewaters
deepened more than 1880 faUhOms,
and upon the next cast of the lead
the wire broke after some 4, SAB faith
oms had been run out without bot
tom having been reached. The depth
of the deepest cast, which was st
miles, being the deepest water yet
found, is remarked as sufficient to
hold two mountains as high as ia
pans great Fusiyama, one on top of
the other, and then the summit of
the highest would be nearly two
thirds of q mile under water.-New
