Horses Econ Instinct.

The horse has a strong sense of
smell. He will leave musty hay un-
touched in his bin, however hungry;
neither will he drink objectionable
water, however thirsty. His intelli-
gent rostril will widen, CULVER and
query over the daintiest bits offered
by the fairest hands. Blind horses will
gallop wildly about pasture without
striking the surrounding fence. The
sense Of smell informs them of its
proximity. Others will, when loosened
from the stable, go to the gate or bars
opening to their accustomed feeding
grounds. The horse, in browsing, is
guided in its choice Of proper food en-
tirely by its nostrils. Blind horses do
not make mistakes In their diet In
the temple Of Olympus bronze horse
was exhibited, at the sight of which
real horses experienced the most viO-
lent emotion. 1t Is said that in cast
ing the statue a magician had thrown
hippomanes upon 1t, which, by the
odor of the plant, deceived the horses,
and therein is the secret Of the mir
acle.-Tid-Bits.

SILK Costunes.

It is quite possible that many wom-
en- will wear silk gowns this summer.
This Is due to the fact that that ma
terial is offered at a very low price.
Foulard, although not very new, II
made up carefully, will look well, and
can be purchased as low as rs cents.
1t comes in soft ground colors with
scrolls Of white. Some Of the prettiest
show a fine stripe instead Of scrolls.
White satin and lace are the best ma
terials for trimming. Ribbon velvet is
also much used, and has a quaint, old
fashion air that makes It thoroughly
up to date. A charming gown is Of
pearl gray silk with a fine halr-line
stripe in black. The skirt is narrow,
with what little fullness 1t has drawn
to the back. Yet the trimming easily
cvercomes any scant appearance about

A BRILLIANT spEcrAcLE.
An Ignorance That Was Not Altogether
BIIasfuL wi IA.

An Ignorance That Was Not Altogether
BllssfuL rg
Some weeks ago story was circu-
lated in Harrisburg that there would
be visible in the western sky soon after
sunset brilliant light, which was
nothing less wonderful, the rumor told,
than a huge electric spark which some
scientists were sending up nightly over
Pittsburg, says the Philadelphia Times.
The story spread rapidly, and when
evening came the streets were filled
with credulous people who gazed with
amazement at the brilliant orb, which,
true to report, shone, out bright and
clear. The newspapers Of Harrisburg
commented on the occurrence the fol-
lowing day and told the people that the
story Of the electric light was fake
and that the ball Of FIRE was simply the
planet Venus, which had been shining
there at corresponding seasons for
ages and would doubtless continue to
illuminate that part Of the heavens un-
til the world should be no more.
The Harrisburg people perceived that
they had been duped and were ashamed
&C their display of ignorance. But q
week later the same story was spread
In the town of West Chester, and the
usually intelligent people Of that Dor
ough went through the same perform
ance Of admirIng the wonderful cleo
trio light. The newspapers again as
sumed the role Of instructors in as
tronomy, and Venus was for, the second
time given proper credit for the even
ing Illumination.
But ignorance will not down, and
last week the good people of Lancaster,
having heard the story, went out after
sunset and beheld with amazement the
glowing orb that had already brought
so much fame to the scientists Of Pitts
burg. There are some doubling Thorn
ases, however, among the Lancastrians
and the story was not accepted univer-
sally. A. pilgrimage was made to the
observatory on the grounds Of Frank.
lin aud Marshall college and there a
glance through the telescope dissipated
at once all belief in the story that, sin
gularly enough, had found lodgment in
the minds Of the people in three dis
tinct localities.
Where the display Of ignorance may
break out next is problematical. Per-
haps the delusion is at an end, But
all this should point the lesson that
the facts Of the world in which we
live are not taught plainly and intelli-
gently enough in the schools, and the
habit of observation Is scarcely taught
at all. If children In the schools were
given some rudimentary instruction in
astronomy, or at least had their atten-
ton drawn to the wonders of the heav-
ems, there would be no such displays OF
ignorance as have broken out In this
state, and the people would have far
better chance to enjoy the world. be-
cause they could appreciate some Of
its many beauties.

THE TOMS OF ArTlLA.
A Writer Who Doubts RguSsolA' Right q
Roioloe,

Rejoice.
Brussels is "enthuBina" over the sar-
sophagus Of Attila, which turned up
casually the other day, in sinking the
foundations OF the new exhibition, says
the London Standard. They call It
very remarkable discovery and no ono
will question that. The day when
Attila's grave ia found will be an epoch
In history; but we do not expect to
hear Of II In Belgium, nor to read the
account In newspaper paragraph.
When the people OF. Athens went mad
with Joy over q report Of Alexander's
death, Phocion declined TO believe It;
for said he, III Alexander were dead
the universe would reek with SMELL"
so, II Atllla's or Alaric's tomb were dis
covered, art and culture throughout the
world would be convulsed. For in
these spots the choicest treasures of
Greece md Rome, such as had survived
land there is excellent reason TO think
that they are those which we should
most specially value. For the quantity
Of gold and silver Plate in each case
was described as emo, nous and for
generations before that time Romans
had little enough to spend on new ar
tioles Of luxury, 1t follows that tho
vast hoard must have been old, most
ly. But there Is no reasonable hope
that Attilas tomb will ever DO found.
We only know that he was buried
somewhere beside the Danube, at
depth far beyond the reach Of the pillow.
II by some lucky chance q canal should
be dug across the spot the bones OF the
slaughtered slaves or other indications
may turn up, and II they be noticed by
intelligent persons the work may be
carried deeper, That appears 10 be the
only hope. But the resting place Of
Alaric is known. There would be no
difficulty and small expense in opening
1t. That effort has never made scan
dal.

A stormy sea before her
When, OIL too strong for human hand,
The tempest gathered DER her.
And still they rowed amidst the roar
OF waters fast prevailing,
Lord Ullin reached that fatal shore,
His wrath was changed to yelling,
For sore dismayed, thro' storm and
shade
His child he did discover,
One lovely hand she stretched for aid,
And one was round her lover.
"Come back, come back" he cried in
grief,
Across this raging water,
"And I'll forgive your Highland chief,
My daughterl oh, my daughterg'
Twas vain, the loud waves dashed the
shore,
Return or aid preventing.
The waters wild went DER his child.
And he was left lamentlng!

Under ordinary circumstances paint,
Ing flowers in water colors isn't a
source Of immense profit. Neverthe-
less there 10 a girl who Is reaping o
rich harvest from II. 1t all began in
this way: The young artist was one
of the bridesmaids at the wedding Of
a wealthy friend and was the lucky
one who caught the brides bouquet
when II was thrown to the maids. The
idea occurred to her that It would be
graceful thing to make a sketch Of
the bouquet and give 1t to the bride;
and, being clever with her brush and
having o keen sense Of artistic pos
slbilities, she succeeded In combining
the rather stir bouquet, a fan, poll
ished table and a shlmmering pale
green scarf into delicious bit Of
color and sentiment.
The bride was In ecstasy. SO were
her friends, Soon one Of the brides
maids needed bridesmaids Of her own,
1t wasn't the artist, in spite OF her luck
in catching the bouquet. This bride
refused to be happy unless she, too,
could have a sketch of her bridal
bouquet. The artist charged q good
price this time, and to her surprise
found herself the originator Of social
fad. She became as much a part OF o
swell wedding as the caterer, florist OF
bridegroom. Being gifted with a share
Of the wisdom Of the serpent, she saw
that the thing was too good TO last
and that the opportunity must DO Inn
