WHAT'S A BUMP ?

In our peculiar vernacular, We say q
bump on log and bump on human
being. What one might call bump an
other one would call thump. Thus we
have bump from thump and thump
from bump. In like manner, bruise
may cause q bump, and bump may cause
bruise, or perhaps q thump may cause
both, Well, what's the difference, SO long
as we suffer from either bump or bruise,
We want to get rid of it,. That's true, and
the surest, quickest way to cure bruise is
at once to use st. Jacobs Oil. Then the
question will be not what 1t is, but what 1t
was, as it will promptly disappear.

ChrysolOras.

Chrysoloras, native Of CONSTANT
nople, who has been styled the restorer
Of Greek in Italy, carried Greek lore
and taught his native tongue to the
magnates and youth of the principal
Italian cities from 1400 to i416, and
his Greek grammar was the standard
for many years. Greek at that time was
little known in western and northern
Europe, not single book in that idiom
being found in the library Of the king
of France as late as 1425, but it be-
came favorite study in Italy, where
many Greek scholars found refuge after
the final overthrow of the eastern en-
pire in 1853.

SHED at the Elevator.

The first experience of Nasrullah
Khan, the Afghan prince, with lift,
or elevator, occurred in hotel in Bir.
mingham. He refused to enter the car,
and finally, yielding to persuasion, sent
one Of the hotel porters up in order that
he might see how the elevator worked
Even this didn't satisfy him. for when
the porter came down he sent his page
boy mp. When the boy came down, he
sent his entire suit up. Upon their re-
turn they reported everything all right,
but the prince was not satisfied even
then. Pausing moment, he suddenly
decided against the lift, and turning
away mounted the stairs and walked
up.-London World.

THE SOUTHERN SUMNER.
It Is Claimed That While Long 1t Is Not
Oppressive.

Oppressive.
Wrong impressions are hard to eradi
cate from the human mind. In the
north and west it is a popular delusion
that southern summers are extremely
hot and oppressive, and that life here
during the summer months is almost
unbearable. This impression is formed
upon no knowledge of the matter, but
simply upon the assumption that, as
we are nearer the equator, it must
necessarily be much warmer than in
more northern latitudes. An investiga-
tion of the records of the government
weather bureau will show that there is
no ground for such an assumption.
Our summers are long, but they are
not unpleasant. The heat in the north
and west is much more oppressive dur
ing June, July and August than in the
south. Deaths from sunstroke are much
more numerous there, and the heat is
decidedly more sultry. Our long even
ings are delightful, and a sultry night
is seldom experienced Our laborers
work in the fields all day long, and
suffer less from the warmth than those
Of the north.
In nutshell, our summers compare
favorably with those of any section Of
the country, and our long, pleasant,
warm season is decided advantage.
Our farmers can commence to work the
land long before their northern and
western brothers think of beginning,
and can continue to utilize it months
after they have stopped. In the towns
and cities the residents are exempted
from heavy expenditures for warm win
ter clothing, and for the larger portion
of the year the only fuel burned is for
cooking purposes.
In comparison with the north and
west, it is doubtful if our long, pleas
ant summer is not as far superior to
their short, blistering one as our short,
mild winters are to their long, frigid
ones.-Montgomery Gala. Advertiser.

Friendship.

The plant of friendship grows only
in the warm air Of congeniality. Con-
fidence binds it's parts together and is
the cohesive power of its nature, while
sympathy is the life giving sap coursing
through every fiber. It is an evergreen
and is indigenous to all lands. Its
most beautiful flowers open during the
night, and, while a perennial blooner,
1t is most fragrant in winter. Time
cannot wither or destroy it; age but
Strengthens and develops. s. Field

all the crack competitors from the va

is as follows. First place at known
distance on the department of the

broke the known distance record by
points, making a total of $50 points
at the four ranges. In October, 1884,
he skirmished in ahead of the army
team, winning by 26 points, and re-

Wilson was mentioned in general or

Professional Coaches Get Larger
Salaries Than the Best Teachers.
The time has come when one of the
most important members of a college
faculty in the eyes of the undergraduates.
ana undoubtedly the most popular in many
colleges, is the professional athletic train
er who sees to it the baseball football and
rowing men give good account OF them
selves when brought in competition with
other colleges. Within the past week
the engagement of such a trainer by a
large college conspicuous in athletics has
been announced, and it is stated that his
salary is to be $1,000 a year. There are
many members of the faculty of this col
lege who do not get so large a salary
though their dignity is greater Not a
few of these professional trainers now
are college men, and the field for this
kind OF work is broadening. A man who
gave himself up to this kind of work
twenty years ago would have been looked
upon as little better than a prize fighter
but it is a recognized branch now. Half
a dozen college girls have gone into this
kind of work and have succeeded much
better than the girls who have devoted
themselves to teaching classics and math-
ematics. Thissis an era of athletics and
of physical development, and the effects
are good.-New York Sun.

where. In fact, you cannot find any
