Paris Letter to Boston Transcript
A great master of the art of throwing
off stories by daily installments was
POnson du Terrail. When he was az
the hight of his vogue, he kept three
running al the same time i'm different
papers. His fertile Imagination was never
at a loss, but his memory frequently was
He was apt to forget to-day what he
did with a hero or heroine yesterday To
help his memory he at first noted down
briefly in copy books what happened to
his men and women, but finding that Of
ten he could not read his own writing ne
invented a new system. He procured lit
tie leaden figures on which he gummed
the names of his characters as they were
born. Supposing there were three sets of
stories running, there were three sets Of
figures in different drawers. When a
character was settled off, the little man
or woman in lead was taken away from.
its companions and laid aside.
One day when Ponson du Terrail was
all behind in his work, he set himself
to his task without examining the slain
his bad memory led him into a terrible
blunder. He had forgotten that he had
killed Rocambole-the still famous Ro-
eambole-in the previous feuilleton and
to the surprise of the reader, he maze
him talk again as If nothing out of the
common had befallen him. This resusci-
tation of Rocambole is one of the mosr
curious things in the history OF the ro-
mans-feuiiletOn.

The Headlight was the only paper

for the Closest Scrutiny.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct 17.-This morning
President Collier of the exposition furn-
ished the following card about the
charges of eXtortion and incomplete con-
dition of the exposition for the press:
"Unfounded rumors have been circula-
ted to the effect that the Cotton States
and International Exposition is not com
plete. / deem it my duty to make an OH
cial and authoritative announcement

Toad Superstitfons.

Superstitions as to toads having been
early inculcated, it has been exceeding
ly difficult to get rid of them. One rem
nant of this ancient credulity still ex-
lists. 1t is in regard to the absolute i'm
perishable character of the toad. There
are well educated Americans who be-
Heve that q toad hops out alive from a
slab Of stone, though he has been i'm
prisoned there for several millions of
years. We give in brief DR.. Buckland's
experiments with toads in 1895. He
took 10 toads and had the toads put i'm
l2-cells cut in sandstone, and over these
he put plates of glass. They were bur-
led in q garden for owe a year. When
exhumed, they We're all dead. Then
sorne zen put in porous sandstone, and
at the end of a year o few were found
greatly emaciated. When buried for
another year, they all died. Toads were
Enclosed in wood, and they all died.
The conclusion Is that, deprived of at
mosphere or without food, toads must
die. III O toad as q tadpole could have
entered a crevice in q rock, it might
have grown. but would have died in
time for want of air and food. This
toad nonsense is SO irradicable that it ia
supposable it never can be dissipated.-

And Bob viii Not Go Out OF Nights WitR
h Boys ANY More.
He had married the girl of his heart,
and she was all his fancy painted her,
and more, too, and he should have been
as happy as a clam at high water, but
he wasn't. Somehow he had got i'm with
the old fast set and took to spending his
evenings away from home, running
around town with the boys.
His wife demonstrated, made herself
charming and agreeable, but failed to
keep him at home in the society OF her
self and their friends. Things were 60
ing from bad to worse when she sud-
denly hit OF a scheme to recall him to
herself.
One night he was particularly request
ed TO come home early. He, as usual,
failed to comply, and it was midnight
when he hurried up to his steps, opened
tine door with his latchkey and found
his home . blaze OF light and filed with
. large company. He was met by his
best man OF q year before. who, in full
evening dress, hurried him up stairs.
Jump into your dress suit, Bob. The
minister is here to marry you over again.
Marry me v again?'' gasped Bob,
blinking about in the light. what do
you mean?"
"Oh. it's q custom of his to visit
each couple he marries on the anniver-
sary OF their wedding day. and, after
asking q lot OF questions, to read the
vows over and have them respond. He
thinks it's q good idea, and 30 do we

Where's Nellie?n
Down stairs in her wedding dress.
looking sweet as q peach, waiting for
YOU"
When Bob entered the parlor, he look
cd like anything but a happy bride
groom. He was shamefaced and wor.
ried, but when he saw Nellie, as fair
and lovely as she had looked at their
nuptials, he braced mp. and In O few
minutes was listening to the III charge
ye" OF the minister and feeling very
much as ii il were solemn as a funeral.
Then came congratulations and pres
ents and social merrymaking, and when
the company left Bob told them that he
would begin . new honeymoon that
should last as long al he lived.
And he kept his word. He says that
II young married people could keep
their anniversaries I'm that manner they
would not forget the obligations bind
ing upon them, and he gives his Nellie
credit for having q long head Is well rs
