A Moons Strange Antics.

For some time past large green moon
has been visible to the citizens Of Green's
burg, Ind 1t can be seen between the
hours of 10 and 12 at night and is the
cause of no little excitement. 1t brings
back to the memory of the citizens a huge
green moon several years ago, similar in
appearance, which could be seen about
midnight hanging apparently over the
johnson sawmill in the south part Of the
city. The strange phenomenon kept dan
Cling back and forth high in the sky and
seemed to be anchored to the millshed by
q large Illuminated rope. 1t was mystify-
ing to all who saw 1t, and none dared 60
near 1t. Finally two boys Jack Thomp-
son and Willie Turner, who were known
for their daring, decided to investigate the
matter.
They went together, climbed upon the
shed, and at the same time both laid hold
Of the rope. They fell directly, as II para
lyzed, and were found on the roof uncon-
scious the next morning. When they gain
ed consciousness, 1t was discovered the
hair on the right side Of Turner's head
which wos naturally black, had turned
green, and that on the left side Of Thomp-
sons head had turned fiery red. 1t was
hot, and sparks would fly from 1t when
touched. Every l2 hours the color Of the
hair would change, first Turner's to red
and then Thompson's to green, then
Thompson's to red and Turner's to green,
The boys became a wonder to everybody.
Scientists from Indianapolis, Cincinnati,
Chicago and several other large cities went
there and examined the boys and pro-
nounced the strange occurrence phenom-
email and something which had never oc-
CURED before.
But one night an angel Of light appear
ed unto the boys and bade them go again
to the millshcd and touch the rope. They
both arose from their beds, and at the
Same time In their sleep went TO the mill,
climbed the shed together, and at exactly
the same tipe both took hold Of the rope.
They instantly awoke and felt very curl
Gus and foolish at finding where they were.
Upon touching the rope their hair imme-
diately changed to its natural color, and
they went home sound I'm both mind and
body.-Chicago Tribune

rHE STATE OF TRADE.

The state of internal trade continues
to improve at rate which must be
pronounced satisfactory. The demand
for structural steel is witness to activi-
ty in the building trades. The amount
of wages now being paid assures good
volume of purchases both in domestic
manufactures and in imported goods
Stocks Of staples are not increasing; in
some leading lines they show diminu-
tion. This is noted in iron and print
cloths. 1t is matter OF necessary in
ference that the consumption Of sugars,
coffees and other prime imports will
shortly have become resumed, 80 far at
least as the urban populations are con-
cerned, on the scale of two years ago.
Cotton and breadstuffs both show an
important advance on the prices quoted
last year. Provisions are not doing 80
well. Were there any guarantee that ali
of the quotations now ruling would be
sustained, q volume Of securities only
moderate in amount might be expected
TO provide for the balance. The market
for cotton, at least, depends on affair
in the Far East, the course OF which il
not matter Of safe prediction. On tn,
whole, the outlook for American exter-
nal trade il less gratifying than tha
for internal exchanges.

A Buffer Blurred.

A young Washingtonian, recently
returned from Chicago, tells a good
story, which should properly go un-
der the heading, Important if
True" According to his account, the
young man was going home late one
night, and when crossing the Clark
street bridge was aocosted by a beg
gar.
On being refused aims the mendi-
cant suddenly developed into high
wayman, and putting a pistol under
the young mans rose compelled
him to shell out all his personal pos
sessions. Then the highwayman
made a bad break, for, laughing at
the frightened victim, he said:
why, you're dead easy. Dis pop
amt loaded. It's only a bluff"
Whereupon the young Washing
tonian whipped out a revolver that
was loaded, and with dire threats of
shooting the highwayman's head off
compelled him to give back all the
plumber.

tion," says the self confessed hero in
telling the story, "andI put it in the

Paving His Raspeots.

newspaper in New York from q west
ern city. who imagined his name
was well known in the office, though
his person was not, on a recent visit
to the metropolis, concluded he
would call and pay his respects to
the editor in chief.
Arriving on the lofty floor where
that distinguished worthy held
forth, he was met in the environ
ments of the sanctiffed seclusion by
an office boy, who demanded his
card. He gave it up willingly and
waited for the Office boy to report,
the meanwhile smoothing himself
out and thinking of a few appropri-
ate words of greeting and response
when he should have come into the
presence.
The boy shortly returned and
stated that the editor would like to
know his business before seeing him.
He was paralyzed for an instant,
but soon, phenixlike, rose from the
ashes, as is the custom of the west,
and asked for paper on which to
write a note of explanation. He got
it, and in about two minutes handed
this to the boy to hand to the boss:
DEAR SIR-I called to pay my respects. am
asked what my business is. Am l to under
stand that payments of all kinds are to be
made in the business Officer Yours,

him in, he had departed thence De

TRIL6Y FEET RARE.

Btubby Shoes and High Heels Do Not Con-
tribute to Beauty.
The st. Louis artist, j. Wilton
Cunningham. who was. during his
successful artistic life in Paris, a par
ticularly close student of the female
foot and hand, said to a reporter that
the perfect hand is somewhat I'M
usual, but it is still possible to OBJ
tain a model, but as for the ideal foot,
why, it's hardly to be found.
my instructor in Paris was al
ways in a state of despair when, in
his work, a model for a perfect foot
was desired. The high heeled, stub
by shoe is responsible for most of the
i'll formed feet. and the advent of
the long, pointed boot is something
TO rejoice at.
IA woman's hand should show a
certain amount of delicate strength,
but with only flesh enough to make
it plump. The fingers should taper,
of course, though not finishing with
a pointed nail, as from an artistic
standpoint the nail should not come
below the tip of the finger.
II consider it impossible for any
woman to give too much attention to
her hands and feet, for to have them
a nearly perfect as possible gives
one "a feeling of ease that is indeed
delightful. Is not Sir Walter Raleigh
enshrined in every woman's heart
as an ideal courtier because he glad
ly laid on the ground his cloak of
richest cloth that his queens lovely
foot might escape the mire?
"A noted authority on palmistry
thinks it would be a wise plan for
the man or woman anticipating mat
rimony to look carefully at the hand,
for it indicates so easily a good or
bad disposition.
"Still it is not easy to disturb loves
young dream with imaginary lines
of the hand. Stand on the street dur
ing any shopping hour and watch
my lady walk. Her little foot. if
placed quickly and firmly or sloven-
~ and %unevenly, will tell you nine
times out of ten her general charac-
teristics and interest in life. u 4
"But whatever be q woman's dis
position, whether lovely of face Dr.
form, if she possesses a pretty hand
and foot, men are bound to enshrine
her with more or less sentiment. -
