SIGNING THE DECLARATION.

Bothersome Flies Expedited the Impor-
tant Proceeding.
Jefferson was fond of telling story
which illustrates in forcible manner
the Importance that absurdly insig-
nifcant matters may sometimes as
sumo, says the Philadelphia Press
When the deliberative body that gave
the world the declaration of indie
pendence was in session its proceed
ings were conducted in hall close to
which was situated a livery stable
The weather was warm, and from the
stable came swarms of flies that
lighted on the legs of the honorable
members, and, biting through the thin
silk stockings then in fashion, gave in
finite annoyance. 1t was no uncommon
sight, said Jefferson, to see member
making a speech with a large hand
kerchief in hand and pausing at every
moment to thrash the flies from his
thinly protected calves. The opinion
of the body was not unanimous in
favor of the document, and, under
other circumstances, discussion might
have been prolonged for days, if not
weeks, but the flies were intolerable.
Efforts were made to find another hall
free from the pests, but in vain. As
the weather became warmer the flies
grew worse, and the Tapping of hand
kerchiefs was heard all over the hall
as an accompaniment to the roices of
the speakers. In despair, at last some
one suggested that matters be hurried
SO that the body might adjourn and
get away from the flies. There were
few mild protests, but no one needed
them, the immortal declaration was
hurriedly copied, and, with handker-
chiefs in hand, fighting the flies as
they came, the members hastened up to
the table to sign the authentic copy
and leave the flies in the lurch Had
it not been for the livery stable and its
inmates there is no telling when the
document would have been completed,
but it certainly would not have been
signed on the Fourth.

OF HUMAN KIND.

The True Story OF q French Conv1ct At
No criminal is altogether hardened;
springs of kindness and feeling for his
fellow-beings still exist within his
nature, if one could but find them. The
author of s.Secrets of the Prison-1ouse''
tells a true story of French convict at
Toulon.
Among the free laborers, who work
side by side with the prisoners, was an
italian who always treated them with
great kindness, and became in con5c-
quence very much beloved. One day,
however, the Italian seemed to be much
depressed. and he confided to his fell
low-laborers the fact that he was ter
ribiy in want of money. Not many
days after, one of the convicts escaped,
sought the Italian out at his home, and
said to him:
Snow 1 give myself up to you. My
capture will bring you the reward of
hundred francs, and that will help you
out of your difficulties"
For a long time the italian refused
to take advantage of the fugitive's self
sacrifice, but at length he yielded and
led back the prisoner.

alone in the house, by sounds which
convinced her that burglars must be
below. The courageous old lady rose
and went downstairs into the dining
room, where she found a man in the
act of rifling the sideboard He
promptly. knocked her down, but as
soon as she could recover herself she
got up and quietly took a seat. Then
she addressed the BURGLAR
81 suppose you have been driven to
these evil courses by WANT she said;
''but why add cowardly violence to
your crime? You see am an old
woman-old enough to be your mother
Is your mother still alive? Do you re-
member her? What would you say or
do to a man who struck her in the face
and Knocked her down?''
Her words had marked effect on
the housebreaker. He was evidently
moved to the heart.
I'm sorry, ma'am," he said, E'and
I'm ashamed of what I'm doing. 1
won't take anything belonging to you
except this fve-pound note. But
really am in desperate straits, and
want money badly"
he emptied his pockets of the silver
he had taken, but with the full con-
sent of the old lady made off with the
five pounds. Some time afterward an
envelope reached her, addressed in a
strange hand, and in it was a FIVE
pound note

suBJueATIoN OF WILD CATTLE.
How 1t Was Accomplished by Primitive
Europeans.

How 1t Was Accomplished by Primitive
Europeans.
The first and simplest use made of
the animals from which man derives
strength appears to have been brought
about by the subjugation of wild cattle
the bulls and buffaloes.
Several wild varieties of the bovine
tribe were originally widely dissent
mated in Europe and Asia, and these
forms must have been frequent objects
of chase by the ancient hunters. Al
though in their adult state these ami
mails were doubtless originally intract-
able, the young were mild-mannered
and, as we can readily conceive, must
often have been led captive to the
abodes of the primitive people.
AS is common with all gregarious
animals which have long acknowledged
the authority of their natural herds
men, the dominant males of their tribe,
these creatures lent themselves to do
mestication.
Even the first generation of the cap
tives reared by hand probably showed
disposition to remain with their mas
ters, and in a few generations this ma
tive impulse might well have been so
far developed that the domestic herd
was established affording perhaps at
first only flesh and hides, and leading
the people who made them captives to
nomadic life, that constant search for
fresh fields and pastures new which
characterizes people who are supported
by their focls and herds.

TOLD eY THEIR pREss.
The Women of Different Nationalities
Easily Distinguished.

The Women of Different Nationalities
Easily Distin guished.
You can tell at glance the French
woman from the American, the latter
from the English woman, and yet, says
the Paris-New York Herald, each wom-
an is perfect type.
The well-dressed Frenchwoman
wears a very large hat or exquisite
toque; her chiffon blouse has short
sleeves, and is made with rundown
collar; her gloves are very long, reach
ing far above the elbow, and, although
white, are perfectly clean and fresh.
She has waist at whatever sacrifice,
also hips. She wears white veil,
which she never puts on, under her hat,
and when she walks, which is seldom,
it is on the tips of her toes.
The well-dressed' English woman
wears in the morning a mans colored
shirt, with white collar, a mans neck
tie. a tailor-made white drill or holland
jacket and skirt, pretty hat with flow
ers, with veil plastered over the face to
keep the fringe in curl.
She has good figure and is very tall
does not wear high heels and uses her
whole foot when walking.
The American woman is a combina-
ton of these twq. With great acute
ness she selects the best points of each,
but you would never take her for any
body but herself. She is rather inclined
to the enormous hats of the French,
but she does not wear short sleeves
and low necks with them.
She is always appropriately dressed
and has costume for every occasion
which always seems the very best
thing that she could have chosen. She
seems to have calculated all weathers
and all occurrences with an eye to her
dress-hence her success.
