Engineer Raymond relates pretty
good mule story from up the line,
which is another instance that goes to
show the tenacity of life possessed by
the long-eared tribe. In wandering
around the premises of its owner the
mule fell into an old dry and unused
well. and nine days after the animal
was missed it was discovered in the
well and hoisted out with block and
tackle. During the soiourn beneath
the earth's surface, the mule had neith-
er food nor water, but when released
was apparently in nowise affected by
the long FAST Melrose Beacon.

Something to Know.

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restor-
ing the tired out nervous system to a
healthy yigof is Electric Bitters. This
medicine is purely vegetable, acts by
giving tone to the nerve centres in the
stomach, gently stimulates the Liver
and Kidneys, and aids these organs
in throwing off impurities in the blood.
Electric Bitters improves the appetite,
aids digestion, and is pronounced by
those who have tried it as the very
best blood purifier and nerve tonic.
Try it. Sold for Soc or ST. 90 per bottle
at Scheldrup & Fiesler's Drug Store.

Frog q Century Old.

A strange story Of a frog is told Us by
one who IS acquainted with the facts.
On the old Richie place, which
abounds with relics Of early days. is an
old log springhouse, built at the begin
ming Of the century by John Ritchie,
the inventor of the sour mash process of
making whisky. A never failing stream
of ice cold water flows into this old
house, forming pool several feet deep.
Here since John Ritchie left Lynns Fort
and built himself an independent dwell
ing it is alleged giant bullfrog has
had its home. AS the frog family is en-
dowed with great longevity; it is said
by those who ought to know that it is
reasonable to believe that the frogJis
the same one which took up it's resi-
dence III the Richie springhouse in pio-.
neer times. What lends color TO this
theory is the fact that there has never
been but one frog seen i'll the neighbor-
hood Of the old spring, and Mr.. Stephen
Richie, now man well advanced in
years, states that this same frog, or one
very similar to it, had it's home in the
spring when he was child and that he
has often heard his grandmother term
the frog her rain sign. The frog is said
to be Of vast proportions, with thun-
derous voice that can be heard a great
distance. It is very active and shows no
evidence of its century or more of years.

Onions and Cupid.

Among the Greeks the onion was for.
merly used at marriages, jar of len
ills. one of snow and one of onions be,
ing spoken of as gifts to the daughter
of King Cotys upon the occasion of he1
marriage to Iphicrates In some places,
even now, onions are thrown after
brides, as is rice in our land.
In the south Of England this patri-
archal plant was used by girls to divine
their future husbands. When the onions
were purchased for this purpose, it was
necessary for the purchaser to enter the
shop by one door and go out by another.
1t was, therefore, important to select a
greengrocer shop which had two doors
Onions bought in this careful way, if
placed under the pillow on ST. Thomas
eve, were warranted to bring visions of
the future husband.
Country girls were also wont to take
an onion and name ii after St. Thomas.
1t was then peeled and wrapped in a
clean handkerchief, after which, plac-
ing it carefully Oh their heads, the
maids would say:
Good ST. Thomas, do me right
And let my true love come tonight
That l may look him in the face
And him in my fond arms embrace.

BAD NAMES.

Many people are under the disad-
vantage of an unfortunate name Civ
en- them by parents who thought they
were doing good thing. Some
times at the baptism of children
while I have held up one hand in
prayer I have held up the other in
amazement that parents should have
weighed the babe with such dis
sonant and repulsive nomenclature.
l have not SO much wondered that
some children should cry out at the
christening font as that others with
such smiling faces should take a title
that will be the burden of their life
time. 1t is outrageous to afflict
children with an undesirable name
because it happened to be possessed
by parent or a rich uncle from
whom favors are expected, or some
prominent man of the day who may
end his life in disgrace It is no ex-
cuse, because they are Scripture
names, to call child Jehoiakim or
Tiglath- Pileser. I baptised one by
the name of Bathsheba Why, under
all the circumambient heaven, any
parent should want to give a child
the name of that loose creature of
Scripture times I cannot imagine. I
have often felt at the baptismal
altar, when names were announced
to me, like saying, as did the Rev.
DR.. Richards, of Morristown, n. j.,
when child was handed him for
baptism and the name given,
Hadn't you better call it some thing
else?''

They hate saving their master money.
tried this experiment with great sue
cess the other day. Finding we con-
sumed q great deal Of soap, | sat down
in my thinking chair and took the soap
question into consideration, and l found
reason to suspect that we were using a
very expensive article when a much
cheaper one would serve the purpose
better. | ordered half dozen pounds of
both sorts, but took precaution of chang
ing the papers Oh which the prices were
marked before giving them into the
hands Of Betty.
Well, Betty, which soap do you
find washes best?' oh, please, sir, the
dearest, in the blue paper 1t makes a
lather as well again as the other.
We'll, Betty, you shall always have it,
then. And thus the unsuspecting Betty
saved me some pounds year and
washed the clothes better.

CURRENT MISCELLANY.


The "other life, = as we have been by
way Of designating the continuance of
life after leaving the physical body, is
growing very real and clearly defined in
the light of psychic science. The discov-
cry Of the inner ether which pervades
the air We breathe offers a cIew to the
possibilities Of the next life in a very
practicable way, as this ether is I'M
doubtedly the atmosphere of those in
the ethereal world If, then, they
breathe an air within an air, it is
equally possible to conceive that inter
blended with our visible world is their
invisible world coexisting with ours as
ether coexists with air
In recent sermon that brilliant and
profound thinker Rev. John Page Hops
of London has said: Science is carry
ing US in every direction into an unseen
universe, and this unseen universe is
everywhere felt to be the sphere Of
causes and the source and center of all
the essential elements and activities of
creation. This inquiry into a future
life is strictly scientific one and is, as
one has said, "a proper branch of the
physiology Of the species. 1t is only
the accident of its connection with the
question Of rewards and punishmeats
and with considerations relating to the
being and the providence of God that
has made it q religious question. -

Low Water Alarm

An apparatus for sending nn electric
alarm when the water in boiler sinks
to the danger limit consists of a mer
curry tube incased in metal fitting and
attached to the boiler by pipe and ell
bow inserted at low water levek Two
platinum wire ends are let into the
sides of the tube above the normal po-
sition Of the mercury, one being attach
ed to the fitting and the other to the in
sClated binding screw at the top, there
being thus but one wire to the bell and
battery. So long as the water is high
enough it maintains it's position in the
pipe, and the mercury is kept below the
wire ends, but should the water fall be-
low the line the pipe fills with steam,
the mercury rises above the wire ends,
and an electrical circuit is formed and
the alarm bell sounds continuously I'M
til the water is again above the danger
