overwhelmed by an Advertisement.

A Brooklyn firm had an amusing ex- perience recently, and one which proved to it the great value of newspaper ad- qertising. Solid oak chiffoniers were ad- yertised to be sold for 98 cents That morning bargain seekers noticed the offer and before o'clock the store was crowded with buyers. Finally the clerks were overwhelmed. They began taking oYers for the chiffoniers right and left ln alarm the manager telephoned to one member of the firm and wanted to know whabeould be done. By that time the crowd had become so great and the rush for the 98 cent chiffoniers so impatient that other furniture was being showed in all directions and much damage done. The sale was ordered off in a twinkling. It was found, however, that orders for 1.64l chiffoniers had been taken. Buffalo Express.

Clearly Defined.

A contemporary writes: Lord Wa terford's story related in Canon Me Colls descriptive sketch in the Vest minister Gazette of the man who accused another of doing him 'grievous bodily harm by calling him names, which gave him pain in the inside, reminds nfs of an incident in trial to which listened many years ago, when law student in the Four Courts, Dublin. The late Sir William Carroll, who had filled the post of lord mayor of Dublin, but who was noted as disciple of Mrs
 Malaprop, sued the late Mir Angelo Hayes, Dublin artist of considerable eminence, for libeling him by carica- ture. The caricature was produced ill court. In cross examination, Sir Will liam swore that it gave him great pain. Pain? said the counsel. Pain of what kind? Was it mental pain or bodily pain?' My lord, said the witness, turning to the late Chief Justice White side, who was trying the case, my lord, all can say is that that drawing gave me great bodily pain of mind '

Interpreting the Koran.

The Koran is at the same time a reli- gious and political code. All Mussul- mans admit it to be so, and it cannot be expected therefore that. since their reli- zion is connected with their national policy, they will not make use of the former to carry out tho latter. Their policy may be briefly defned-namely, the maintenance of their faith in it's purity by exclusiveness and isolation, the emancipation of the countries which have fallen under Christian rule, the extermination of tho infidel nations and races who by refusing 10 pay tribute for the redemption of their blood are pro nouced hy the prophet to be ill state of open rebellion against the law and consequently deserving of death. En-
 frightened and tolerant Mohammedans will endeavor to palliate these precepts by quotations from the Koran and Hadis (traditions). but they are not the less cherished creed, the conscientious belief of upward of 300, 900, 900 Mohamme dams English Consular Reports.

The Vague Laureate.

Itwould be pleasant to think of Spen- ser as poet laureate to Queen Elizabeth. and there arc those who do so, but strict criticism cannot allow the claim. 1t is true that Spenser became courier and hattered the queen in the extraordinari- ly exaggerated style of the time, and that when he dedicated the first three books of the Faerie Queene3 to Eliza beth she gave him pension of G50 a year It is true also that Spenser speaks of himself as the wearer of the laurel leaf In one of the sonnets to the lady who was to become his wife he says:
 The laurel leaf, which you this day do wear,
 Gives me great hope of your relenting mind For, since it is the badge which 1 do bear,
 You, bearing it, do seem to me incline d.
 But this is nothing more than the usual formal reference to the laurel as the poets special tree. No such office as that of poet laureate, as it is now under stood, existed ill Elizabeth time, and few poets who have fiattered sovereign have had such bitter experience of the fickleness and cruelty of court as Spenser. Like some of his more formal ly appointed successors, he was indeed buried ill Westminster abbey. Yes. but hehad died of starvation. Temple Bar.

 A Settler.

On the occasion of visit of an Eng fish junior football team to Glasgow to play an eleven of Scottish juniors, two of the members were taken down in rather an unexpected manner.
 They did not arrive in the city until nearly II p. m.. but, despite the late Kxs of the hour, two of them expressed their intention of having a look round.
 The landlady of the hotel where they were staying, motherly old Scottish lady, suggested that bed would be pref erable, especially as they were in a strange city, closing her remarks by say ling:
 And, besides, ye might get lost and )took to the police station, and should have to pay saxpence each to get ye back. a
 "Is that all they charge to bail man out?" inquired one of the pair.
 "It is na' what they charge to bail a man out, ;" answered the good lady, as she gazed on the youthful countenances of the football players, "but it is what we have to pay for the recovery of lost children. '
 The youths went to bed.-Pearson' s Weekly

Uses of Salt.

A little salt rubbed on the cups will remove tea stains. Salt into whitewash will make it stick better. Use salt and water to clean willow furniture, apply ing it with a brush and rubbing dry. Ginghams or cambrics rinsed in salt and water will hold their color and look brighter.
 Salt and water make an excellent remedy for inflamed eyes. Hemorrhages of the lungs or stomach are often check ed by small doses of salt. Neuralgia of the feet and limbs can be cured by bath ing night and morning with salt and water as hot as can be borne. After bathing rub the feet briskly with a coarse towel 4 gargle of salt and water strengthens the throat, and, used hot, will cure q sore throat. AS tooth pow der salt will keep the teeth white and the gums hard and rosy.
 Two teaspoonfnls of salt in half a pint of tepid water is an emetie always on hand and is an antidote for poisoning from nitrate of silver. New York Sun

walrus whIskers For Toothpicks.

A peculiar but profitable industry which Dr. Benjamin Sharp discovered among the natives of Alaska is the preparation and sale of walrus whiskers for toothpicks. Nature has armed the walrus with growth of whiskers which extend three or four inches out from its snont, with the apparent motive of en- abling it to detect the presence of an iceberg before actual contact has result ed. These whiskers are quite stiff. and this quality improves with age. When a walrus is killed, the natives proceed to pull out with the aid Of rude pinehers each separate whisker. After thorough drying they are arranged in neat pack ages and exported 10 China, where they are considered q necessary appurtenance of the Chinese dude

One of the many stories which are told about the late Eugene Field is of a little joke he had at his wife's expense They had entered street car, to find all the seats taken, save one at each end of the car, and they seated themselves ac- cordingly. When the conductor collected the fares, MT. Field announced ill audi ble tones. as he gave him dime, at the same time pointing to the far end of the car, "This is to pay the fare of the lady over there-the one wearing the new, beautiful brown silk dress. :" All eyes were turned to her, and her pretty face took most becoming rose color, but back of the repreving glance she threw at him was one of mingled indulgence, appreciation and mirth at the unexpect- ed and apparently truthful announce maOt

Royv a Cold Wave Trava1s

f1aold waves, so called--a comnra. hensive phase for which we are indebt. ed to recent meteorological research and inyestigation-are waves of heavy air following the rarefied track of Glow barometer and changing the conditions from mild oppressiveness to elear cola skies and heavy air full of life pivino properties These waves are as marked in their movements as veritable saa waves, rolling over the land just as 2 tidal wave rolls over the surface of the ocean. Exactly where they originate is a mystery, but it is altogether probable that their starting point is somewhere On that bleak plateau lying between Hudson bay and Boring strait. When the wave reaches tho outposts of eivili- zation in the Rocky mountains, the tel egraph heralds the news over the whole of the United States, giving the impress sion that the home of the blizzard is in the mountainous regions of the north. western states of our own country. When thase waves reach the great piains and the Missouri and Mississippi valleys
 they spread out and cover the whole country, striking the Atlantic coast in a streak extending from Bangor, Me, to Cape Hatteras. After taking it's plunge into the ocean it rages with great yio- lence until it comes in contact with the gulf stream. That great thermal current modifies and tempers the blast so that it is but spring breeze by the time it reaches the Bermudas, 500 miles from Charleston, c. C.-St. Louis Republic.

 The womans who had been sentenced to l5 days imprisonment for assault upon the police, at once replied: "Do so. will wait for you at the pier and Will not run away. i" The detective thereupon plunged into the stream and seized the drowning man by his clothes, when boat struck against him violent ly and made him lose his grip.

Thomas Carlyle.

Carlyle certainly taught us to have a keen scent for cant and to abhor it, though his horror of cant certainly some times became cant of his own. The habit of denouneing cant is very apt to blind us to the cant of denunciation. Until men leave off eloquent generali- ties and look quietly into their own hearts without blast of trumpets and qualification of themselves for stripping themselves of cant they will not strip themselves of the very habit which most endangers their truthfalness and sheer ity. Carlyle taught us to despise cant, but hardly to detect it i'll ourselves
 His genius was as impatient as his industry was patient. There was no toll which he would not go through to make his books workmanlike, but a great many of his carefully compiled facts proved to be more or less adapted to spoil the effect of his impatient cpl grams. A great part of Carlyle's genius Was genius for happy exaggeration, though 1t was Il kind of exaggeration which brought out, as nothing else could h"No b1ouSu0 Oub, tli6 I5dA ufl1b duu slB- niticance of social and political facts. Never did any man preach the duty of submitting to wise authority more elo- quently, but never was there man of genius who was less inclined to subju- gate his own mind to the authority for which he professed so Platonic an affec- tion. He has flashed all manner of bril- liant lights upon character and history, but he has not found for us any coherent code of wisdom or any valuable avenue to religious truth. h.-London Spectator
