GAVE THEIR HEARTS.


Richard Occur de Lion bequeathed his
heart to the canons of Rouen cathedral.
The heart was surprisingly large, and
when disinterred six centuries later
had withered to the semblance of n
leaf.
When Mime. Vermenoux (Neckar's
friend) died, as yet young woman,
she bequenthed her heart to jacob
Mester, making him ut the same time
swear that he would by his will direct
that it should be buried with him in
his grave.
In the parish church at ITammersmth
is buried the heart of Sir Nicholas
Crispe, n wealthy London citizen. He
left sum of money for the purpose of
refreshing his heart once u year with
glass of wine. This was done until
the heart dsintegrated.
Sir William Temple directed that his
heart should be buried under sun dial
in his garden. Napoleon desired that
his heart be conveyed to Parma to
Marie Louise, but he did not foresee
that only year after his death she
would enter n ballroom attended by tn.
duke of Wellington or that she woul;l

Where People Are Honest.

In the mining districts of the Rockies
free delivery system is in vogue, for
which the government pays nothing. A
miner setting out from his cabin, some
where In the mountains, will take with
him from the post Office all the mail
belonging to his neighbors, in which
term he includes those who live miles
from his claim. AT each turning-otf
point on the trail small box will be
found nailed securely to the trunk of u
stout tree, and upon this box Is painted
or written the names of all miners who
must pass that tree in going to their
respective cabins. Into this box the
last man coming from town puts all the
mail belonging to miners living up that
particular gulch. From that gulch q
miner will occasionally descend for sup
plies, and as he returns up the trail, he
deposits the mail in other boxes placed
at convenient intervals. In this man
ner many letters and newspapers are
delivered in the heart of the Rockies.
Money deposited In mail boxes for the
purchase of stamps, tobacco and other
supplies, not too heavy, is always prop
erly respected and the mission scrupu
lousy fulfilled.

A MACHINE for catching flies of the
backs of cattle, and so affording the ami
NAL relief and conf fort, has been invent
ed by farmer in Madison county, Ky
The fy-catcher Is a kind of covered pen
or passageway, through which the ami
NAL must walk to secure relief. A few
feet from the entrance there is cupola
or dome In the roof of the passageway,
made of glass and arranged rs n fly trap.
Beyond this the passage is darkness.
The animal walks through the machine,
and just as it passes under the dome and
enters the darkened part a set of
brushes sweeps off the flies, which
naturally rise into the lighted dome,
and the steer passes out at the other
side free of flies. The flies are retained
in the dome trap. The inventor has ex-
perimented with his machine and finds
that the animals soon learn the value of
the machine and know enough to walk
through it when the flies begin to bite.
The device has been patented.

viousy passed, the onl! difference be-
ing that it is made to apply to married
men instead OF children. The council
members say that such an ordinance
would be no more of burlcsque than
the former one, and while the council
is in the burlcsque business 1t might as
well cover the entire field. A curfew
ordnance for married men might meet
with the approval of the wives, but II

A Peculiar Wedding Gift.

An amusing incident occurred at Il
fashionable wedding in Chicago recent
ly. One friend, who determined to
save her money and credit at the same
time, took a broken earring to famous
iewelcr of State street and ordered the
little stone to lie set as n scarf pin for
the groom. AS she eagerly remarked:
ut does me no good, and coming from
such famous establishment they nre
sure to prize it and think that | paid
n lot of money" When the package
was returned from the shop the we'd
ding guest failed to examine her pro-
posed present and merely dispatched
it, with her card and compliments.
Imagine her disgust when strolling
through the rooms where the bridal
gifts were displayed to find dozen peo-
pie about her Offering and each one
smiling. For n moment she hesitated,
then pressed forward, and 10, there
was the precious white satin covered
box bearing the priced name, it is true,
but, alas! below: From repairing de-
partment;" and even worse than all,
resting on the blue cotton beside the
pin was an old broken bit of earring,
returned by the conscientious firm.
