A Horn CURIOSITY.

Our old school textbook told us that
"all horns are not bones" and this is
certainly true as far as the horn Of the
rhinoceros is concerned. That curious
protuberance is nothing less than q col.
lection or amalgamation of hairs, so
interviewer and agglutinated that under
the microscope it appears to be of COM
position similar to the pith of q corn
stalk, except that the hairs are not SO
widely separated by the material that
binds them together.
In olden times royalty employed rhi-
nOceros horns for drinking cups, the no.
ton being that poison put into them
would show itself by bubbling. There
may have been grain of truth in this,
for it is known that the ancient poisons
were all acids, and these would certain
~ decompose the horny structure of the
cup very rapidly.-St. Louis Republic.

ther, the moon the Allmother, and both
shine with equal light in the heavens.
But the Trues, the superior divinities,
find that man. the animals, the flowers,
weary of constant day. They agree to
put ont the Allfather's, or sums, eyes
The Allmother-the moon-effers her.
self as a sacrifice. "Blind me-" she
says, land leave my husbands eyes. +"
The Trues say, 1T is good, woman"
They accept the sacrifice and take
away one of the Allmother's eyes. Hence
the moon is less brilliant than the sun.
The man finds rest at night, and the
flowers sleep.
In Mrs. Leiber Cohen's translation of
Sacher Masoch's Jewish Tales" there
is q variant of the sun and moon story
derived from the Talmud. Briefly told,
the sun and moon are equally luminous.
1t is the moon who wants to DO more
brilliant than the sun. Deity is angered
ct her demands. Her light is lessened.
1.-The moon grew pale. Then God pitied
her and gave her the stars for compan-
ions.''

Elouuence Interrupted.

During political campaign, a we'll
known lawyer in western state was
addressing an audience composed prin-
cipally of farmers. Like a wise speaker
and shrewd candidate-he tried to
suit his speech to the occasion.
In tone which he evidently consid-
cred both cordial and honest, and with
winning smile, he began:
MY friends, my sympathies have al
ways been with the tillers of the soil.
Ny father was a practical farmer. and
SO was my grandfather before him. /
myself was born on a farm and was, SO
to speak, reared between two stalks Of

rupted by the trumpet tones of q farmer

A FAMOUS NOVELIST.
A Graphic Pen Picture Of Hall Caine and
Something of His Character.

A Graphic Pen Picture Of Hall Game and
Something of His Character.
Hall Caine is said to resemble Shake
speare in the keen intelligence Of his
features and in the intellectual height
of his prominent forehead. He possesses
a highly nervous organization, and his
first novel came near bankrupting him
in health. His best work is done after
midnight in the early morning hours.
He is a native Of the isle Of Man, q
Manxman, and is As years old, or there
abouts. Much of his time is spent in
travel, when he exerts his powers of OBJ
servation and gathers material for fu-
ture use. His home is in the English
lake country, overlooking Derwentwa-
ter and above the town of Reswick 1t
is called "Hawthorns
The novelist is also ut times poet, as
he occasionally writes some verses for
publication. He has decided religious
tendencies, which take the form of in
vestigation. He contemplates writing a
life of Christ, and as he excels in terse,
epigrammatic sentences his style would
be in the direct line of Biblical truths.
He is conscientious and painstaking in
all his literary methods, and his readers
recognize in him one who has sincerity
as asrperstructure for every romance Of
which he is the architect.-New York
Advertiser.

the vase was sold to him under the mys-
terious circumstances described there
was 70 guarantee that it was the Peach
blow vase, and that the comparatively
small price at which it was offered tend
ed to RGove that they were not identical
On the other hand, there are those
who assert that Mr.. Ives believed he
was buying the Peachblow vase, and
was at any rate willing to take ''flier"
on that assumption. The facts which he
has subsequently learned seem to prove
beyond any question that he did in real
investment was judicious one.
Here is one fact" said Mr.. Ives
when discussing the pros and cons
There is a lady in this city who is q
friend of Mrs. Moir, who was the sister
Of Mrs. Morgan This lady frequently
visited the house of Mrs. Morgan, and
there she saw and handled the Peach
blow vase many times, examining it
carefully. Upon one occasion when Wis.,
iting my house she saw the vase now in
my possession and exclaimed: i have
handled that vase many times. 1t is the
Peachblow!' A careful examination
made by her only confirmed this opin-
ion."
1.-The death OF Mr.. Walters, together
with the examination of his collections,
have cleared up some Of the mystery
which surrounds this subject" said Mr..
Ives. 1T is now pretty well established
that he never had the Feachblow vase. !"

he invariably drops his "g's, and they
are looking up his authority for it. His
authority is simply common usage

CANALS OF THE FUTURE.
They Will BE Large Enough For the Han
ding of . Heavy business.

They Will he Large Enough For the Ham
ding of q Heavy business.
The history Of the struggle between
canals of small dimensions and of rail-
roads has been the same in all countries.
The fight ragged bitterly for q number of
years, the canals acting on the defen-
sive, although they had as allies the
states under whose patronage they were
built and operated. The result has been
the same in all cases-the unconditional
surrender of the canals to the railroads.
This, however, is not SO much the fault
OF the system as of their management.
The railroads have great advantages
over canals. They are better able to
abridge distances both by reason of supe-
rior speed and Of facilities for oyercom-
ing elevations, spanning streams, free
from danger CT destructive floods, and
piercing through the highest mountains,
but their great success is mainly due to
the fact that they have kept pace with
the progress of the world.
Waterways built from the beginning
Of the eighteenth century to the first
quarter of the nineteenth century were
TeSs.Tutu stiIipic W iiitct Tue requirements
of trade at the time they were construct
ed, and there was in many instances q
progressive improvement in their dimen-
sions and appurtenances But while the
industrial, agricultural and commercial
developments Of the world have ad-
vanced to proportions not dreamed of a
century ago canals have remained sta
| tionary. They are now obsolete and can
no longer fulfill the requirements of
cheap transportation in competition
with railroads. The canals of the future
must have the dimensions and the facili.
ties for rapid transport to adapt them to
the new conditions of commerce. They
must not be barge or boat canals, but
ample waterways for the free passage Of
such ships as arc now engaged in carry
ing the worlds trade. Of such canals
we have now some important types in
successful operation. and others in proc
ess of construction or in completion. -
