The Sympathetic Vine.

At certain place, which is mark
ed by river, furrow, a hedge, and
a range of hills, there dwelt prince
who made his people very unhappy.
A Brahmin, going into the forest to
do penance, had told the prince that
there was great supply Of gold ia
his dominions.
"How shall l get it?" the prince
inquired.
"Dig for it" said the Brahmin.
"Where shallI dig?" asked the
prince.
SIN the space of land" replied the
BrahmiD, @that is marked off by
river, furrow, hedge, and a range
OF hills.n
The Brahmin, after receiving the
kindest treatment, took his leave and
went forward into the forest. The
prince Immediately summoned his
subjects and told then that, as there
was to be great scarcity of food
the next year, the best thing they
could do would be to become farm
ers.
"You have little land" said the
prince, "but / have plenty. Go yon-
der where the land is marked of by
river, furrow, hedge, and
range Of hills. Dig there and make
the ground arabic. The mists will
rise from the river and help you and
the dew will fall from the hills and
make the soil sweet"
So they went, some gladly, but
others with bad grace
slow shall we begin 2" asked one
old man.
"Dig,n said the prince.
"When We have dug. what then p"
ASKED young man.
"Continue to Dig" replied the
prince.
Now, the prince, being afraid that
the people would find the gold and
hide it, took his stand by a tree on
the range Of hills and watched them,
and at night when they could no
longer work he caused the laborers
to pass near him, In single f1le, so
that he might question them. To
each he said, "What have you
found2" and the reply was, moth
ng but the trouble of digging"
This happened day after day. end
the workers got no rest except the
little they found at night. The
young men asked when it could end,
and the old men shook their heads.
Life is little span, but greed runs
from generation to generation. So
the people dug and dug from day to
day, and the prince sat by the tree
and watched them.
At last, one day, an old man, while
digging YEARLY, turned up a lump
OF gold. 1t was dingy and dirty,
but he knew it was gold because it
was hard and very heavy. After
this, it seemed that the field was full
of gold, and when night had come,
each took lump, intending to give
it 10 the prince who was watching
by the tree. So they came TO him,
and an old man said, aYour high
migbtiness, we have found some
thing"
But the prince answered not
word. He sat there still and cold.
A ck.growing vine had wrapped
around his body, crushing his bones
and strangling him. The Brahmin,
coming out Of the forest, saw the
people gathered together. He went
to them and said, .'What you have

The highest Velocity attained by can
non ball has been estimated at ,622 feet
per second, which is equal to a mile in
80 seconds. The velocity Of tho earth
at the equator, due to its rotation ON its
axis, is 1000 miles per second, or mile
every $50 seconds. Therefore il has been
calculated that if cannon ball were
fred due west, and that it could main
tain its initial velocity for 81 hours, it
would barely beat the sun in its ap-

NEW WAY TO COLLECT.
1t Brought the Money, but Was Rather
Severe All Around.

Quite a novel suggestion in the way Of
bill collecting was made the other day
through the mistake of a man mailing
two letters in this city, saws the Wash
ington News. He had had considerable
difficulty in persuading young woman
that his goods had not been sold to her
for the mere pleasure OF selling, and
finally she had dismissed his messenger
with the statement that she did not
want to hear from him again. Nothing
was left Tor the merchant TO do but
to resort to the United States
mails. He accordingly sat down and
wrote 10 the young woman a let
ter which was characterized rather by
terseness and vigor than by any terms
OF affection. Fortunately or unfortu-
nately for him he had a social acquaint-
ance with another young lady in the
same house, and while he had his pen
he thought he would write to her,
too, personal letter. When he came
to direct'his envelopes, though, he sent
the Cunning letter to his personal
friend and his personal letter to his
debtor. 1t II needless to say that the
mistake was corrected within a few
moments after the receipt Of the let
tiers, but the debtors cLagrin at the
revelation Of her position to another
