THE CURIOSITY SHOP.
One Of the Most Popular and Perha
Most Ancient OF Superatitions.

One Of the Most Popular and Perhaps
Most Ancient Of superstitions.
Man In the moon is the name popu-
larly given to the dark lines and spots
upon the surface of tho moon which are
visible to the naked eye and which,
when examined with q telescope, are
discovered to be due to depressions and
mountains on the surface 1t is one of
the popular and perhaps one of the most
ancient superstitions in the world that
these lines and spots are the figure of a
man leaning ON fork, on which he car
ries q bundle Of thorns or brushwood,
for stealing which ON a Sunday he was
confined in the moon.
Some of those versed in such lore ex-
plain that this story undoubtedly had its
origin in tho account given in the if
teenth chapter Of the book of Numbers,
thirty second verse, of man stoned to
death for gathering sticks upon the Sab
bath day. With the Italians Cain APP
pears to have been the offender.
The Jews have some Talmudical story
that Jacob is in the moon, and they be-
lieve his face is visible. Bishop Wilkins
writes that, "as for the forme of these
spots, some of the vulgar thinke they
represent man, and poets guess It's
the boy Endymion, whose company she
loves SO we'll that she carries him with
her"

A gentleman formerly in the service
of the United States navy married a
japanese beauty few years ago and
settled down to domestic life in the Land
of the Rising Sun.
Only few months ago an old chum
of his, an officer on one of our ships OF
war went to call upon him at his home
in Nagasaki. While waiting in the room
which might correspond to the parlor in
this country he heard the prattle of {
child in the adjoining apartment. Sale
the youngster:
"Who is the foreign devil that ha'
come to see papa?"
Hush, said the nurse. "The gen
tleman might overhear you. Hois q fel
low countryman of your fathers"
well, papa is foreign devil too. /"
/ This incident would seem to show
that certain oolloquial phrases have sur
vived the feeling of hatred for foreign
ers which the japanese abandoned 81
many years ago. Washington Star.

One of the first military incidents
connected with the American flag &C.
CURED OIL Aug. 2, 1777, when Lieuten-
ant Bird and Lieutenant Brant invested
Fort Stanwix of Schuyler, commanded
by Colonel Peter Gansevoort There
was no flag i'll the garrison when the
enemy appeared, but pride, patriotism
and ingenuity soon overcame the mat
ter. The design for the flag just adopted
by congress was known, and flag was
quickly made. Sheets were cut up for
the stars and the white stripes, the red
was supplied from bits of scarlet cloth
collected from the soldiers, while the
blue was obtained from Dutch cloak
belonging to Colonel Abraham Swart-
out of Duchess county. The siege was
raised Aug. 22, but what became of the
improvised flag is not known.

"You haven't been married very long,
and perhaps you'll take "A pointer from me, y
remarked Mr.. Norris, with II fatherly air.
NNever ask a woman to mend anything.
THAT'S fatal"
"Why, what do you meant"
"DO rs | do. When | want to have a

hand and hunt up my wife. Where's

The first implement used by man fol-
catching fish with line was not hook.
1t was pointed piece of bone or flint,
simple baitholder, and the line, posi-.
bly, length or so of some dried vine OF
grass, was tied to the middle of the
piece The fish swallowed the whole
bait, bone and all, and so the first i'm
plement was what we would call gorge
hook today. In time bronze was substi-
tuted for bone, but the form of the first
implement was retained Untold ages
passed before the first fishhook was
made and, strangely enough, when O
prong was fashioned on the hook, the
prong turned outward and not inward.

Confucius. 1t is huge mound over
grown with trees and shrubs, and at the
end stands tablet % feet high by 6 feet
broad, on which are engraved the name
and. the doings of Confucius the Sage
No historian has ever ventured to
doubt the genuineness of this tomb. The
burial places of Virgil, of Homer, and
even Of Alexander the Great, are still
unknown, but such is not the case with
that of one whose name and teachings
have influenced the great world of China
for 23 centuries or more.
'Confucius fourished at the very time
when Pythagoras established his school
of philosophy at Crotona, when Cyrus,
the king, permitted the Jews to rebuild
their temple, and when Haggai, the
prophet, uttered those words which now
form part of our sacred Scriptures.
He was born SOL B. c., when the proph-
ct Daniel received his visions, and he
died at the advanced age of 70, just
about the time when the Athenians were
rebuilding the walls of their city and
becoming great among the nations of
the earth, says q writer in the New
York Sun.
