Some time ago the attention OF a
Philadelphia mother was attracted To her
little boy by the fact that he lay at full
length on the library floor, evidently
deeply involved in the intricacies OF let
ter writing. All inquiries a To the pur-
port and proposed destination OF the
iaborious production failed To elicit
further remark than an advice 10 wait
a while" At last the missive ended
with Il scra@ling superscription and an
immense sigh OF relief, aud il was proud
" borne 20 the father and mother that
they might be afforded an opportunity
of expressing their entire appreciation.
which was evidently expected.
Imagine their surprise when their eyes
fell upon the following:
Dear Gar: Since the death OF your
father YOU must have received a great
deal OF foreign postage stamps on letters
from your friends who were sorry for
you. | am collecting postage stamps
and il you will please send me good
lot OF yours will send you some Ameri-
can ones In return
The parents at first laughed at the
lutd. Dul Inc ltltlt uItu W Is ~ '' Is'hN'N
pleased with the idea OF his young brain
that they finally determined TO allow
him 10 mail il, never imagining that II
would really fall beneath the royal gaze.
With both the parents and the child
the thing was already fast becoming a
thing of the forgotten past, when II e
mail few mornings ago brought the
young fellow rather bulky envelope,
bearing upon il the seal and arms of the
royal house Of Russia. To the little
fellows delight he found, on opening II,
that it was packed with stamps OF all
nstionalities.
The ltbored missive had evidently
reached It's destination, and had spelled
out to the heart of the man, in all the ex-
element of his coronation ceremonies,
such message of childish innocence as
made refusal impossible. -PEiladelphia

GINS THAT SHOOT MILES.

The longest distance that shot Ia:
been fired is few yards over 10 miles,
which was the range Of krupp's we'll
known monster 1870 ton steel gun, firing a
shot weighing 1900 pounds.
The Hilton Armstrong gun has an ex-
treme range of ii miles, firing a shot
weighing 1900 pounds, and requiring 800
pounds of powder. These guns, how
ever, proved too expensive, being unable
10 stand firing 100 times. and their manu-
facture has practically been abandoned,
The 22-ton Armstrong gun hurls solid
shot for distance OF II miles, and the
discharge of the gun cannot be heard at
the place where the ball strikes. From
IL 10 II miles is the computed range OF
the most powerful guns now made, and
to obtain that range an elevation OF near
ly Is degrees is found TO be necessary

For YOUR PROTECTION.

Catsrrh ''cures" In liquid form to be
taken internally. usually contain either
Mercury or Iodide of Potassa, or both,
which are injurious if too long taken.
Catarrh Is a local, not blood disease,
caused by sudden change to cold and
damp weather. IL starts in the nasal
passages. Cold in the head causes ex-
cessive flow of mucus, and, if repeatedly
neglected, the results of catarrh will
follow, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Ely's Cream Balm is the ac-
knowlei cure for these troubles and con-
tains no mercury nor any injurious drug.

An Arabs Answer.

A Frenchman who had won a
rank among men of science,
aud who yet denied the existence OF
God, the author OF all science, was
crossing the Desert of Sahara in
company with an Arab guide. THIS
so.called philosopher noticed with a
sheer that at certain times his guide,
whatever obstacles might arise, put
them all aside, and kneeling on the
burning sands, called on his God.
Day after day passed., and the
Arab never neglected his devotions.
At last one evening, as he rose from
his knees, the Frenchman asked him
with a sheer:
allow do you know there is a
God
The guide fixed his eyes upon the
ecoffer in wonder, and then said
solemnly
allow do Ieknow there is a God !
How did l know that a man, and
not a camel, passed my hut last
