THE CARS GIFT.
A Pathetic story OF His Tender Regard

A Pathetic Story OF His Tender Rcgar,
For the Wishes OF the Empress.
A pathetic story comes from Russit
about the last present received by th'
dowager empress from the late car
Last summer the car and empress Wis
tied great soop in st. Petersburg L
buy jewels for their sons future bride
The empress greatly admired bcauti
full bracelet aud told tho car that she
wished to possess il. On their return
one Of the serious attacks to which hC
was subject came upon him, and the
empress forgot the bracelet The czai
died, and 10 the empress in the early
days Of her widowhood came Nov IL,
the first birthday she must pass alone.
On her other birthdays the car had
been wont to place bouquet i'll the
morning room Of the empress. Inside
the flowers was always folded some rich
rare gift, chosen months beforehand.
The empress had avoided the room aS
too full OF painful memories, but this
morning, the morning of his wedding
day, Nicholas requested his mother to
60 there as q favor to him The first
thing she saw was the bouquet in the
usual place. and inside the flowers was
q case fastened and sealed by the car :

He had ordered it OH the same day that
the empress saw it. and on his deathbed
had given instructions for the birthday
gift. bidding his son TO be near to COM

Revival Of the curfev Bell.

There is to be revival Of the curfew
in Canada, and il it prove successful in
the cities and towns Of that Dominion,
it is not unlikely that it may be used in
some parts Of the United States, writes
John Gilmcr Speed, in The Ladies
Home Journal. The law which has been
enacted by the legislatures of Quebec
and Ontario was drafted by the Society
For the Protection Of Women and Chill
dren and provides that the municipal
councils in cities, towns and incorporat-
ed villages shall have power to pass
bylaws for the regulation of the time
after which children shall not be in the
streets at night without proper guard.
ianship. The law also provides that
these councils shall cause bell to be
rung at or near the time appointed, as
a warning. to be called the curfew bell,
after which the children so required to
be at their homes or of the streets shall
be liable to be warned by any constable
or police officer to 60 home.

HEARS WlIh HIS LEGS.

The novelty OF telegraph operator
who can scarcely hear locomotive
whistle, working day after day at his in
strument is one OF the msrvels presented
at telegraph station near this city,
says the Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
The man Is about twent-eight years old.
He has been deaf since he was about
three years Of age rs the result Of an at
tack Of scarlet fever.
Being so extremely hard Of hearing,
the child's sense Of touch was developed
To the degree usually possessed by blind
persons. The slightest tap upon table
or upon wall, the rolling vi wagon
wheel along the street, aud all similar
sounds were conveyed 10 him by the
consequent vibrations.
When about twelve years of age he
undertook the study Of telegrsphy
Being u favorire with the operator at
his home, he was given the run of the
office. All the mystic signs, dots and
dashes OF the profession were explained
TO him. Day after day he could be seen
sitting at the table with his knees press
Ell against IL or resting his elbow upon
il. He was literally feeling the mes
sages as they were licked oil over the
wire. Being naturally quick, IL was but
short time until he was able 10 cor
rectly read any message coming into the
Office. Sending came just as easy, and
to-day, after sixteen years service al the
Sey and sounder, he Is just as fine an
operator as there is In the country. Oh
late years his hearing has improved to
such an extent that he can easily hear
the sounder, but the old habit OF listen
ing with his knee and elbow still clings
TO him, and that is the way all his mes
sages are read.

No. aos.-A Very Clever Match Trick.

The following trick IL n great fayorite
and affords much amusement: Take the
matchbox, shut IL up II 10 should chance
20 be open and take two matches Push
these n little way in between the case and
the box, with their heads upward, as
shown In the illustration. Then take an
other match and place IL between the two
horizontally, SO that il Is held there by
them. Now ask any one this question;
III light the horizontal match right In
the center. which Of the two matches at
the side will light frst!" Surprising the
answer TO be the one on the right, light
the match AS near the center as you can,
and you will see IL jump into the air, and
neither of the side matches will light.
This is not trick that Is generally known,
and erea, many people are caught by IL.
