.Ho-.es with wheels.-

'It was in the early days Of railroad
ing in the SOUTH, remarked the gentle
man with the stock of "reminiscences the
other day. II was located in Florida
about the time when the government
had made vassals Of the Seminole Indi-
ans CT that state, and in order to impress
the redoubtable Billy Bowlegs, the Te-
cumseh of tle Seminoles, it had invited
that heap big chieftain' to make trip
to the seat Of the national government.
Billy was bit dubious about accepting
the invitation, fearing possibly that the
great father at Washington might have
designs upon his life or happiness, but
he was prevailed upon to make the trip,
and he embarked on board Of the train
with great show Of courage. The
trains Of that period were not the fiers
Of today-in fact. ON many of the short
lines the engineers were compelled to
get out OF their cabs and walk to Tighten
the train and permit it to proceed at On
even rate Of speed. When Billy Bow
legs returned from his visit, he had
overcome kis trepidation and looked
with scorn upon the locomotives. / WIS.,
tied Billy a day or two after his return
and asked him how he liked travelling
on the iron horse.

twist Of his prominent proboscis, horse

SUFFER FROM FLAT FEET"
How the breaking Down Of the Arch Il
Remediod by Steel Strip.

How the breaking Down Of the Arch II
Remediod by Steel Strip.
Despite the fact that the beauty of a
we'll arched foot is much appreciated by
people of an artistic turn of mind, has
been sung frequently by poets and verse;
makers. there has been until lately lit
tie interest, from a scientific point Of
view, taken ia it's direct opposite-.he
fat foot. In q great numb Der of instances
fiat feet are the occasion Of considerable
keen suffering, generally resulting from
the breaking down OF tho arch-that is,
tie displacement CT some Of the many
little bones Of tho foot either from
overstrain or sc:ce t.isenss Of the lnuscu.
lar structure. AS the weight of the boty
constantly rests upon the foot, there is
no opportunity fer the bones to get bach
to their proper places.
The result is that these little bones
keep rubbing against each other, and
the pain gets more and more severe.
Commonly the person afflicted in this
way thinks that he or she has rheuma-
tism and let's it go at that. Until re-
Gently the only remedy was steel soled
shoe that was clumsy and heavy. The
new device is interesting. 1t is an Gin
sole," curved to it the foot, made of a
bent strip Of steel and acting as a spring.
1t is covered either with leather or with
vulcanized rubber to prevent rusting,
and. leeding no fastening, but simply
to be placed in position, it can be
changed from che shoe to another at
will.
In position it nets simply as sup
port, literally holding up the bones and
giving them an opportunity to slip back
into their proper places. While any Gin
sole" of the approximate shape will
give relief, the best results are reached
only when one is especially made from
cast OR impression of the foot. A great
proportion Of the people troubled with
fat feet come from the north Of Europe,
many of them from the lowlands Of Ger
many. The inhabitants Of the south or
Europe, strangely enough, are seldom
troubled with anything Of the sort.
Their insteps, especially in the case Of
women, are nearly always highly arched
and finely formed. New York Tribune.

A Brief Grafton.

Sergeant s. Prentiss was once
engaged in a political discussion
on the ssstump" with a gentleman
who was wordy, dull and spoke
against time," so that Prentiss
might speak at a disadvantage. 1t
was nearly dark when Prentiss rose.
At the same moment a jackass in a
neigbboring pound began braylng,
and kept it up until Prentiss'
friends were annoyed, and his op-
ponents delighted. When the jack
ass stopped, Prentiss, casting a
comical look at his antagonist,
said: 81 did not come here to-day
to reply to two equally eloquent
speeches. Then he sat down, and
his friends carried him from the
stand in their arms.-.Argonaut.

of 65 years.
President John Adams arose lie.

4th of March, 1901, and set out i'll
his coach for his home in Massa-
chusetts, where he spent the re-
maiuder of his life in peaceful and
happy seclusioD, devoting himself
to literary research and correspon-
dence with his friends, notably
Thomas Jefferson.
He was IS years old at his re.
tircment, and he lived not only to
see his oldest son president, but to
reach the greatest age of all of the
ex-presidents.
Jefferson retired to Monticello

A Seed Pod That Explode,,

A 600Q roo InoS ExplouoSs
It is a funny little brown pod
about the shape of a Cigar and only
an inch long. But If it is dropped In
a pail of water it will explode sud-
denly with q loud crack, and from
the inside of it a shower of small
seeds will shoot upward into the Dir.
This pod is the fruit Of q semi.
tropical plant of the genus justioia.
and nature has given it the power
of bursting so that it may scatter
it's seeds far and wide. Sometimes
after it falls on the water it will lie
for some minutes quite still and
then burst with q sharp explosion.
This explosion occurs because the
outer coat of the pod soaks easily,
and this causes the hard inner coat
to bend and bend until it bursts.
Nor is this all of the wonder about
the pod. When the seeds strike the
water, little mucilage flows cut
and enables them to stick to the
first object they reach. Chioage
