which has to be cut away. One ani-
NAL taken was served as dinner to
the crews of two vessels, afording
meal to fifty men. One species OF
these shells is very common, and Is
used as an ornament, while others
serve as receptacles for holy water IN
churches and cathedrals. A fine spe-
cimen may be seen in the cathedral o.
Notre Dame in Montreal, and another
in the church of st. Sulpice in Paris.
The natives employ them as water
vessels, and circular piece of the
white shell, highly polished and worn
upon the forehead, is considered an
insignia of rank.
Among the largest bivalve shells
known is the geoduck, huge clam OF
the Alaskan coast, that attains weight
of FIVE or six pounds, one shell afford
ing food for whole family. The
conchs, especially those known asQueen
or trumpet conchs, are among the
giants of the univalve shells, weighing
in the latter instance sometimes twelve
pounds-ponderous objects, as they
move slowly along on the sandy bot
toms of the lagoons of their choice.
The method of locomotion among
these large conchs is singular, particu-
larly when observed from above. The
she'll reaches out its foot, which is
armed, in the case of the common
strombus, with sharp-poin:ed, saber-
like operculum, thrusts it into the
sand and gives powerful wrench,
which forces the she'll along in series
of jerks. The real giants Of the
molluscs are few and are confined
mainly to those described. AS the
converse of ali this are the liliputian
forms of shell life to be met with in
the sea. Some are 40 minute that
their great beauty can only be discov-
cred under the microscope. But, if
possible, their study is even more IN
teresting and reveals even greater
marvels OF exquisite loveliness than
their more gigantic relatives.

WHEN MAMIE MARRIED.

When Mamie married Charlie Brown
Joy took possession OF the town;
The young folks swarmed in happy throngs-
They rang the bells. they caroled songs,
They carpeted the steps that led
Into the church where they were wed,
And up and down the altar stair
They scattered roses everywhere
When, In her orange blossom crown.
Queen Maimie married Charley Brown.
Men, looking on her. dreamed they dreamed
And he, the holy man who took
Her hands in his so thrilled and shook
The gargoyles round the ceilings rim
Looked down and leered and grinned at hin
Until he half forgot his part
or sanctlty, and felt his heart
Beat woodward through his sacred gown
When Maimie married Charley Brown.
The bridesmaids kissed her left and right
Fond mothers hugged her with delight
Young men of twenty-seven were seen
To blush like lads OF seventeen
The while they held her hand to quote
Such sentiments as poets wrote.
Yea, all the heads that homage bends
Were bowed to her. But oh. my friends,
My hopes went up-my heart went down
When Mamie married Charley Brown!
James UhitcOmb Riley.

Here is new way for a girl to get
nd OF late beau who is impervious
to all hints. She gives him a paper
and pencil with one of her sweetest
smiles and says: Now make a row Of
eleven ciphers; now make perpendic-
ular mark downward on the right OF
the first cipher, upward on the right Of
the fourth, downward on the right Of
the fifth, upward on the seventh and
eighth, and downward on the tenth.
The marks should be half an inch
long" Ask him to read what be has
written. The effect is electrical.

What Great Men Ate.

Francis Bacon was plain in his eat
ing tastes. Splendid banquets were
provided for his guests, while he him
self ate of one or two simple dishes.
Cruden, the compiler of the Bible
concordance, delighted in roast beef.
''If you can get it cold, sir, with plenty
of mustard, it is fit for the gods"
Napoleon III was extravagantly
fond of the Stra,burg pate de foise
gras. They were regularly sent from
Strasburg for the imperial table in
Paris.
Kant, the German philosopher, was
content with the simplest food in
small quantities. A bit of fish or egg,
with a piece of rye bread, made his
meal.
Raphael lived principally on dried
fruit, such as figs and raisins, eating
them with bread. He had a theory
that meat diet was not good for
painter.
Gibbon delighted in toasted cheese.
Late at night he would repair to the
pantry, procure a supply, and, return
ing to his own room, would toast it
befor. his own fire.
Vitellius, the Roman emperor, was
the most noted glutton of his time.
He would eat all he could possibly
hold, then take an emetic and begin
over again.
Chopin had weak stomach and
any food taken in large quantities was
certain to disagree with him. For
several weeks he lived almost exclu-
sively on liquid diet.
Gray, the author of the "Elegy'
was fond of apples. He always kept
them in his room, and the fact that
they decayed and smelled badly
seemed to be no objection.
Claude Lorraine was fond of wal
nuts, and would spend half a day
cracking and eating them, laughing
and joking with his friends as he
picked the meat from his shells.
Auber's table was provided with
every dainty that the Paris market
afforded. He was a great eater, but
so thin that he once said "All eat
seems to go to appetite.
julius Cesar, when at home, lived
as luxuriously as other wealthy and
noble Romans; when in camp, on the
plainest fare, and not much Of that.
Pliny says that if Caesar overate he
fell into q lethargy, resembling faint
ing fit.
Marion, the American Revolution
airy general, once feasted an English
officer on sweet potatoes, baked in the
fire by darky and served on STRIP
of bark with log for table. 1t Il
said that the officer resigned and went
home, saying it was no use to try tc
conquer people who could live Oh
sweet potatoes.
Napoleon was not at all choice about
his eating. When seated at the table
he would begin at once on everything
that was nearest, and in ten or hfteer
minutes he had made his dinner. De
would eat anything, and if hungry, II
almost any quantity. The battle o.
Dresden failed Of results through al
attack of indigestion from an overdose
of mutton dressed with onions. Wher
at st. Helena he, for time at least
had a Chinese cook, who was excellent

The Sequachee news. (Sequachee [Sequatchie], Tenn.) 189?-1896, 1895-11-21
"GOOd Lawd!" she shrieked

This was evident when she entered
the cable car at Twenty-third street,
for her ebony face had huge, wide
open mouth with rows of cleaning
white teeth and two big brown eyes
starting with surprise. On her head
was a regular ''red and yaller" ban
danna, and the gown that enveloped
her ample and agitated body was
patchwork creation of long ago.
The big black nanny sat down,
clutching in her hand bit Of perspir-
ation-stained paper which was to be
shown to passers-by that she might
eventually reach her destination.
The conductor pulled the bell-cord
and the remnant of the picturesque
south started with the car, and for
moment or two gasped like fish on
a sandhill; then she shrieked: "Good
Lawd!'
The old woman finally became as
sured and when the conductor told
her she was to get off, with cumbrous
effort she pulled herself up and stood
in the doorway until the car should
come to a standstill. With selles
of short bumps the stopping process
began. ''Mammy" looked worried,
made a frantic grab with her right
hand and caught the door handle.
She pulled and the doors started
from front and rear with sudden
force and pinnlng her between them
with a vice-llke grip.
Terrified, she yelled with power
enough to call the plantation hands
to dinner from a mile-away cotton
field. Her fat frame looked like a
bladder with a string tied around it,
and of her eyes nothing showed but
the whites. ExtrieatedE and helped
to the side walk, she sedk herself
together. and waving oTSSOla6k, pud-
gy hand toward the car, she scream
ed: "Take dat ting away! Pse done
goin' to walk frum dis on, suah!
Bress de Lqwd!" and muttering, she
waddled on up the street.-N. Y.

tion, soon to be held at Atlanta, Ga, the
ways and means committee of the assem-
bly, will tomorrow introduce a bill The

stitute a commission to take charge of
