Nest of Clock Springs.

In the Museum of Natural History at Soleure, in Switzerland, there is a birds nest made entirely of steel. There are a number of clock-making shops at Soleure, and in the yards of these there are often found lying disused or broken springs of clocks. One day a clock maker noticed in tree in his yard a birds nest of peculiar appearance. Ex- amining it, he found that pair of wag- tails had built a nest entirely of clock springs. It was more than four inches across, and perfectly comfortable for the birds. After the feathered archi- tects had reared their brood, the nest was taken to the museum, whore it is preserved as a. striking illustration of the skill of birds in turning their sur Ioundings to advantage in building their nests.

An Indian Legend.

The red men of the west have many curious legends concerning natures marvels: none more weird than that concerning Rock lake, Washington Since time out of memory the Indians of that vicinity have believed the lake to be the abode of sea monster, which never grows old, and whose chief diet is Indian flesh. According to the legend, no Indian ever entered it's wa ters and returned alive, no matter whether the rash act was committed by approaching it's margin for drink, for a swim, or for a canoe ride So thoroughly is this belief spread among the Indians of the northwest that each and every one would prefer death to touching it's waters.

CARPETS WERE UNKNOWN.
How the Fourteenth Century Mansions
 Were Furnished

Carpets in the fourteenth century were unknown luxuries, says Good Words. but the fashion of strewing the apart ments with rushes was being gradually abandoned. RusheS were still used in the retainers' hall, but for the better rooms sweet-scented herbs and fragrant twigs were usually employed.
 In the fourteenth century windows were apertures filled with glass SO as to admit light, but to exclude wind. The walls also were frequently hung with cloth or tapestry to protect the inmates of the room from the many currents of air that penetrated the strong but bad ly built walls. We learn from various ancient documents that it was the duty of the serving men and pages to sweep out the principal apartments, but as the use of water is rarely mentioned, damp and fragrant leaves and twigs must have aided not only in collecting the dust, but also toward refreshing the at mosphere in such costantly closed rooms, fresh air being only admitted through the doors opening on to the battlements or balconies.
 From old inventories at Thurleigh and elsewhere we ascertain how scant- fly furnished were these ancient man. sions, although they seem to have been abundantly supplied with flagons and drinking cups in gold, silver and finely engraved pewter, besides an infinite number of black jacks or cups made Of leather.

THE FORMIDABLE UMBRELLA.
A French Tragedian Finds It Mightier
 Than the Sword.

A French Tragedian Finds It Mightier
 Than the Sword.
 The affection of the collector for the objects of his zeal has been amusingly illustrated by story told of Melingue, a French tragedian who had a mania for gathering together great quantities of old veStments, arms and similar an- tque apparatus. Among his treasures was a beautiful and keen-edged sword which had belonged to Philip H., son of Emperor Charles V.
 Having worn this sword in piece in which he was performing, Melingue was making his way homeward in Paris one night. The weather was rainy, and he carried an umbrella Under his cloak he bore the precious sword of Philip II.
 Coming around a corner, Melingue was suddenly menaced by two sneak thieves. He was an expert fencer, and knew that with the sword he could quickly beat the rascals off. But he said to himself:
 What! Betray to these rascals that l have such precious possession? No! They might be too much for me, after all, and then they would get it. will keep it out of sight"
 So saying, he placed his left hand on the hilt of the sword inside his cloak, md with the other hand let down his umbrella. With this as weapon, he assaulted the footpads with such force and spirit that he put them to flight.
 In this case the umbrella turned out to be mightier than the sword.

AN OLD PLOT.
But in This Case New Heroine Was
 Worked In.


 Young story-writers are apt to begin literary career by telling, in some form or other, the story which follows But It must have taken real genius to make a COW the heroine. This particular story is attributed by the Philadelphia Times in which we find it, to Texas locomo- tive engineer.
 The engineer was running his train at full speed, when, he says, his atten- tion was attracted by a COW which seemed to be coming straight~down the track to meet the train. He put his hand on the valve and puffed out three sharp whistles.
 Still the COW came on, believing at every step, and acting altogether in an unusual manner. As much from curi- osity as anything else, the engineer slowed up and sent the fireman ahead to see what was the matter with the COW. No sooner did the COW see that the speed of the train was slackening, and that the fireman was going to invesfi- gate, than she turned and ran straight back down the track, stopping now and then, looking over her shoulder and switching her tail as much as to say: Come on!"
 The man followed, and by and by saw the COW stop short at high trestle. Going up, he discovered another COW which had got herself fastened in the trestlework squarely across the rail.
 As soon as the animal was released, the two cows lost no time in scampering away.

Pure Food and Drink.
Two Reasons

for using SeAllllmg's Best tea one tremendous, the other i'm portant enough to make you try it anyhow.
 The big one is: it is pure the only uncolored Japan tea, that we know of, in the United States.
 The little one is: it is roasted in San Francisco as fast as dealers want it-no faster. Doesn't get stale unless your grocer puts it out of sight.
 Another: it is money-back tea. If you don't like it, your grocer gives you back your money.

 Addition.

But, notwithstanding they are now in tn
 city itself, there are few lots for sale vet at prices corresponding with the "Sound
 Money Doctrine" of President Cleveland and his cuckoos, which means that kind of a dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property. These lots are near the new elec- tric car line which is now in operation. The
 lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town, but the presence of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property. Inside of five years this will be business property. Buy lot now for residence and when business crowds you out the rents will SUD- port you in house outside in some addition where you can keep horse and drive into town and collect your rents.
