The Sting of the Nettle,

The leaf and stem of a nettle are lit
orally clothed with erect hollow hairs.
If one of these hairs is viewed under a
microscope, it will be seen that its free
end, after tapering to very fine degree
of slimness, finishes as little knob,
while in the other direction, after grad
ually becoming more robust, it suddenly
expands into large bulb, corresponding
with the poison gland of the adder.
The point of the hair is very brittle,
and contact with our skin causes the end
to snap off, leaving hollow needle point
which readily pierces our cuticle, and
pressing upon the bulb at the other end
the poison is forced through the central
channel and infames our blood. The
tender handed who stroke the nettle are
stung for their pains, because their gen.
tleness has only served to break the brit
tie points and rendering them fit for
piercing, but the rough handed break
the hairs at their thickest parts, where
they are too stout to prick.-Good

LOST IN A STORM.

he Terrible Experience of Young Hunt
er In the Mountains.
Harry Hardinot, resident of York
vile, Mendocino county. had an expert
ence last week that will probably result
In his becoming deranged He was hunt
ing in the mountains on Wednesday, and
becoming confused lost his way and
wandered over the mountains for three
days and two nights in the storm with
out bite to eat or shelter.
The severe cold and snow which pre-
vailed made his suffering most intense.
The first night out he succeeded in build
ing fire and kept watch during the long
weary hours. The next day he started
again in his fruitless search for a trail or
anything to indicate the way to civiliza-
ton. The rain drenched him through
and through.
AT this time, he not returning home,
the neighbors were notified, and search
ing party of 81 mountaineers was organ
lied. All the adjacent hills, mountains,
gulches and creeks were secured with
out the least discovery.
Thursday night 81 ow fell on them
tains to great depth, and the cold was
terrible. The unfortunate wanderer was
driven before it, his mind almost unbal-
anced by the hardships he had endured.
His travels were through the roughest
country-in places never before visited
by man. Friday morning found him al
most exhausted, yet the spark of life
which was left gave him hope, and he
kept moving. At last he saw fence
and followed. He was now so exhausted
that he was compelled to lie down and
rest every rod of the way.
At last he was rewarded in seeing the
house of Rodney Lowery on the Rock
pile ranch, a sheep range of many thou
sand acres. Mrs. Lowery saw him COM
ing and ran to his assistance, fearing
that he was wounded, as he still clung
to his rifle. He could hardly tell his
name, he was so bewildered in mind.
He had been out in the elements 56
hours, and his emaciated condition told
too plainly of his keen suffering. Satur-
day afternoon two of the searching
party found him at the isolated home of
the shepherd, and the following day he
was conveyed to his home near Yorkville,
where he is now under medical treat
ment. 1t is feared that he will never re-
cover his health, and if so his mind will
be entirely gone, owing to the terrible
experience he passed through.-San
Francisco Chronicle.

THEY WILL BE MISSED.


eiers and Gourko Are Dying, and Wannow.
sky IL Breaking Down.
Nicholas de Giers is dying in st. Peters
burg. Joseph Gourko is awaiting his end
in Warsaw. Peter Wannowsky recently
sought to restore his shattered health on
the south shore of the Mediterranean,
but he has returned to his Russian home
as he left it, broken down man. Each
of these three remarkable men has been
half century in the service of his coun-
try. Each has exercised mighty influ-
ence on Russian politics since the Berlin
congress. Each approaches his grave,
his breast covered with decorations sig
nifying that he has enjoyed to the last
the full confidence and even the friend
Ship of his sovereign.
1t is trite saying in Berlin that Count
von Room forged the German sword,
Moltke sharpened it, and Bismarck drew
it from its sheath. In st. Petersburg it
might be said with equal truth that
Wannowsky forged the Russian sword,
Gourko sharpened it, and Giers kept it in
its sheath.
Wannowsky has prepared for war,
Gourko has threatened it, and Nicholas
de Giers has avertedit. On the CONT
nent the statesman without war policy
is usually condemned to the obscurity of
the virtuous woman. M. de Giers' eff
forts to preserve the peace have been so
evident and SO successful, however, that
the ebbing of his life is watched with
the keenest hopes and fears from Paris,
Berlin, Vienna and Rome.
Giers, Gourko and Wannowsky are
the last of the celebrated Russians who
survived the Bismarckian period of Eu-
ropean politics. They were contempo-
raries of Gambetta, MacMahon, Disraeli,
Gladstone, Moltke, Room, Bismarck,
Benedek and Andrassy, although none
Of the three came into his fame until
long after the names of those men be-
came household words throughout Eu-
rope. Of the famous statesmen and gen.
erals of their day, only francesca Crispi,
the Italian prime minister, is still in Of
fee. Of the sovereigns of great powers,
only Queen Victoria and Emperor Franz
Joseph still reign.-Exchange.

"BoiI Down. Eyerythinpi

The taste for short stories, in place of
the ancient three volume novel, has been
cultivated even in conservative England
and has become so widespread in the
United States that very few periodicals
which deal in fiction at all are without
their stories begun and finished in sim
gle issue. The talent required to pro-
duce fascinating and successful fiction
in this narrow compass is peculiar one,
and while there are rmerous failures
there are also surprising number of
successes. Well written, descriptive ar
ticles, too, are in demand, and special
cravings for personal gossip and lively
sketches of notable living characters are
manifest. That perennial interest which
mankind and womankind evince in ev-
cry individual whose name, for whatev-
r reason, has become familiar supplies
D basis for an inexhaustible series OF
light photographic articles.-New York

Paris 1orsue statistics.

That center of grewsome interest, the
Paris morgue, yields curious statistics.
The official report for 1893 shows that
900 corpses were received, a few more
men than women. Of these 215 died by
drowning, rs by hanging, IS by firearms,
Il by stabs and 62 by poisoning. There
had been 100 sudden deaths. Of other
fatal cases "a were attributed to suffoca-
tion and SO to falls. More bodies are
taken to the morgue during the summer
than at other seasons OF the year.-New

Not Tell Lie.

He Broke the Law of the Land, but Would
Not Tell Lie.
1t would be interesting to know what
the enemies of the red man have to say
about the case Of Nathaniel Jamison.
Nathaniel comes from down Lawton's
way, and Tuesday he was selling the
dark brown sassafras on the streets Of
the city. Now Jamison is thrifty red
man. Having disposed Of many goodly
bundles of sassafras, he went to dealer
in frewater and bought demijohn of
rare whisky. This he took with him to
the reservation at night, and to his red
brethren of the forest he disposed of it
at retail prices. So he made two profits
on his sassafras. The red man knew
that it was contrary to law for him to
sell whisky to hiS people, but in his own
heart he felt no sense of guilt.
Day before yesterday he went to the
firewater man again, and while he was
buying of him United States marshal
arrested him and took him before the
commissioner. Contrary to Christian
custom, he pleaded guilty. The commits
sioner, knowing him to be pagan and
believing him to be drunk, thought it
best not to enter that plea. But the In
dian cried out: 'Pm guilty! Any man
who pleads not guilty when he's gully
Is id liarr Of course there was no
answer to make to this, and fhe honest
Injun had his way for once.-Buffalo

LIP LANGUAGE.

A New Fad Which Is Now Under Discus
sion In England's Upper Tendon.
Lip language" is understood to be the
latest craze which will occupy the spare
time of society in the place of banjo
playing and skirt dancing. Somebody
once sang something about:
When meek gray eyes droop still more meek
And dimples play at hide and seek,
There's but one language lips can speak
'Tis brief, but rather pleasant.
Perchance we have all of us had some
experience of this kind in our time, but
1t is quite different kind of liplanguage
that / am now alluding to. tits reading
and understanding words shaped by the
lips without articulation.
That this is possible is we'll known by
the efficient manner in which deaf actors
have been able to take their part on the
stage, and if people become proficient in
the art it will be surprising how quiet
society will become. Doubtless life will
be somewhat dull, but at any rate we
shall be spared that perpetual babble and
cackle which ofttimes makes a dinner
party so wearisome, and we shall get rid
of the roar and buzz of overcrowded as
semblies.
If perfection is attained in the art,
with couple of good opera glasses peo-
pie will be able to converse when a con-
siderable distance apart. The male prac-
ticers of the art will undoubtedly have
to shave, and it will be a nice point of
law to find whether SANDER or libel con-
veyed by this silent system will be ac-
tionable or not.
Probably the only people who will OBJ
ject to the new pastime will be those
perpetual jabbers, those incessant jaw
exercisers, to whom nothing is so sweet
as the sound of their own voices.-Lon-
don Graphic.

Mrs. Langtry's father, Dean lie Bre-
ton, was the leading dignitary of his
church in Jersey, presiding especially
over the picturesque church at st. Saw
iour's. He was man of superb ply
sique and strikingly handsome. His
beauty descended to more members of
his family tan to his famous daughter,
for the brothers, of whom there were
several, all were splendid looking, Apol-
lolike fellows, notably Mrs. Langtry's
youngest and favorite brother, who was
killed in tiger hunt in India.-New

Caused an Epidemic.

Some municipal authorities declare
that the universal use of confetti in the
recent fetes was the cause of the prevail
ing epidemic of typhoid fever. The Paris
streets were not only covered as with
snow, but the trees were filled with paper
serpentines thrown by the jewellers.
Clearing away the fimsy ribbons cost
the city nearly $4,000, besides injuring
young foliage.-Paris Herald.

Cbicaco's Alleged Blarney stone.

Those who took the trouble to kiss the
alleged "Blsrney stone" in the walls of
the reproduction of Blarney castle, in
the Midway plaisance, will be delighted
to learn from an official report of Depu-
ty Customs Collector j. F. Ralph that
the object of their osculations was a
limestone paving block, dug out of the
streets of Chicago and palmed off on the
customs officers and public as a genuine
stone from Blarney, County Cork, Ire
