a Great Brandy Drinker.

''I have seen the statement that no
man could drink half gallcn Of brandy
a day for more than very short time, "
said John l.. Smith Of Linden, Va. .,
"but there is a man living in the town
reside in who has never missed drink.
ing that much brandy in Gay for 30
years. His name is John Hudnall, and
he owns brandy distillery near Linde.
He has used liquor as beverage since
early youth, and for the past 20 years
has consumed half gallon Of brandy g
day. He is not an inebriate by any
means, not becoming intoxicated by the
brandy. He is hale and hearty and
stands well in the community where he
lives as business man. No explanation
can be given of his remarkable power
Of withstanding the effects of liquor,
but no one who knows him doubts the
statement as to his having taken the
amount have said. 1t has NOT impaired
his digestion in the slightest degree, as
it is usually claimed it will do. -

Mountains.

There used to be held, in accordance
with Murchison's we'll known geolog-
ical views, the general theory that
mountains were mainly due to cracks
which took place in the surface of the
earth in remote periods, but this idea is
no longer entertained by scientific men,
AS to the form of mountains, that which
is known as table mountain finds the
best example, curiously enough, at the
cape of Good Hope, a mountain, it is
believed, due not to any action or phe-
nomenon of upheaval, but to the sink
ing of the surrounding districts or ter
ritory. Why these peculiarly defined
areas did not sink was owing, it is
thought, to the probable fact that the
ground under them cooled before the
rest of the section, and thus the table
mountain had the earlier foundation
and has long retained its place. There
would always be denudation, however,
though proportionate with its surround
ings, and therefore, owing to this fact
Of being higher at the start, it still keeps
to its approximate elevation.

CONSULTING TIE CLOCK.
Familiar Faces That Arc Seldom Over
looked by New YorLcra


One of tie popular habits Of the peo-
pie Of New York city is to consult the
clock almost or every occasion when an
opportunity is presented 1t matters lit
tie whether any special need requires
that consultation or net, the clock will
thus be consulted. Especially is this the
case If particular clcck has the repu-
tation OF being good timekeeper. So
well is this known by many storekeep-
ers that they will place clocks in their
stores SO situated as to be easily seen by
persons who may be passing along the
adjacent sidewalk. If the clock has
good reputation, and the pedestrian is
fortunate enough to carry watch, a
comparison is almost sure to be made
Many times clock with a good repu-
tation placed in the back part of a store
becomes protection thereof, especially
at night. if near it is located a light
strong enough TO illuminate its face and
show the time. A policeman told q re-
porter the other day that good clock
thus situated is better than private
Waterman for jeweiry store, as every
belated passerby is likely to look through
the store to see what time it is, and
would be almost certain to notice any
thing urreual in tie appearance Of the
place. 1t therefore becomes Indirectly
silent Waterman guarding the premises
against the depredations of burglars and
makes the pedestrians, as it were, as
sistants in the work.
Church clocks have always had
large number Of patrons in the work Of
consultation, and nothing seems to be SO
annoying as to find such clock mac
tive. When an event of this character
occurs, especially if the church is located
on or near busy thoroughfare, the
fact of the clock being stopped, or that
some defect appears to exist, is often
made the subject Of notice in the daily
papers. Especially was this the case
when the steeple of old st. Paul's was
recently undergoing renovation, and it
was JOY to many OH noticing that the
newly gilded hands Of the clock were
again travelling along their accustomed
circuit and the deep toned bell was
ready to strike the hour once more. -

THE MAGIC RING.
A Boy's First Circus and His Impressions
of Cornlie the Peerless.

A Boy's First Circus and His Impressions
OF Cornlie the Peerless.
A thud of unseen hoofs first set us
a-quiver; then q crash of cymbals, q
jangle Of bells, hoarse, applauding
roar, and Coralie was in the midst of u.s.
whirling past 'twixt earth and sky,
now erect, flush, radiant, now crouched
to the flowing name, swung and tossed
and nodded by the maddening dance
music Of the band. The mighty whip of
the count in the frock coat marked time
with pistol shots; his warcry, whooping
clear above the music, fred the blood
with passion for splendid deeds, as
Coralie, laughing oxultantly, crashed
through the paper hoops. We gripped
the rod cloth in front of us, and our
souls sped round and round with Co
ralie, leaping with her, prone with her,
swung by name or tail with her. 1t was
not only the ravishment of her delirious
feats, nor her cream colored horse Of
fairy breed, long tailed, roe footed-an
enchanted prince surely, if ever there
was one-it was her more than mortal
beauty-,lisplayed, too, under condi-
tions never vouchsafed to us before
that held us spellbound.
What princess had arms SO dazzling
ly white, or went delicately clothed in
such pink and spangles? Hitherto we
had known the outward woman as but
a drab thing, hourglass shaped, nearly
legless, punched here, CONSTRUCTED there,
slow of movement and given to depre-
eating, lusty action of limb. Here was
a revelation. From henceforth our i'm
aginations would have to be revised and
corrected up to date. In one of those
swift rushes the mind makes in high
strung moments saw myself and Co.
ralie, close EMBODIED, pacing the world
together, DER hill and plain, through
storied cities, past rows of applauding
relations, I i'll my Sunday knickerbock-
ers, she in her pink and spangles.-

JAWS AS WEAPONS.
Chief Means OF Defense Among All Old
World Apes.

Chief Means of Defense Among All Old
World Apes.
Among all old world apes the teeth
are the chief weapons for defense
against natural foes and for combats for
mates or tribal supremacy. The CANNES
are in most cases enormously developed,
insomuch that i'll informed naturalists
have suggested that near relationship
must exist between the primates and
the carnivora. AS a matter of fact, these
formidable teeth have nothing to dc
with Authorization, but are as purely
weapons of war as are the bayonet and
the maxim gun. In practically every
emergency demanding unusual energy,
obstinacy and courage they come into
play.
In every conflict with the world, the
flesh and the devil-as such things are
understood in pithecoid society-the
temporal and masseter muscles are the
chief arbiters of war. To become great
and powerful anthropoid it is absolute
ly and brutally necessary to have q
large and strong jaw, to give firm at
tachment to the teeth and good leverage
to the muscles. That for an immense
epoch our prehuman ancestors achieved
success in life in like manner is as clear
as the print of "Maga" to those who
have learned to read natures handwrit-
ing.
Since those days of true Arcadian
simplicity our life has become bewilder-

on the nervous system. -Blackwood' s
