Faust's Birthplace Sold.

The house in Roda. Saxe-Altenburg,
where Dr.. Johann Faust, the famous
magician and soothsayer Of legendary
fame, was born toward the last quarter
Of the fifteenth century was knocked
down to native junk dealer for $25
the other day and is now being disman-
tied. The building had almost fallen to
pieces from age, and in order that it
might not fall down the municipal IA
theirs of the little town ordered its i'm
mediate demolition.
This historic structure stands, or
stood until quite recently, on rocky
eminence near the Jenaisches Thor
Getty gate). It is frame building, very
rickety, and has been extensively re-
paired. There is a legend that 1t dates
back to the year 1850 or 1850, as do
many other buildings Of Roda. That
Faust saw the light in one of Its dingy
rooms, with floors of trampled earth
and tiny windows In leaden frames, is
attested by several authentic statements
in the town chronicle and also in the
Faust Buoh," printed in 1857, from
which all later writers on the Faust
legend quote and which is their chief
authority. Berlin Letter.

A CLEVER FoRGER.
But He Overshot the Mark and Was

But He Overshot the Mark and Was
Trapped by the Bank.
Not long ago there stood before the
paying teller's window Of one Of New
York's big banks an unctuous little
man smiling blandly over 500 check.
Signature, Endorsement and every detail
were correct. To make assurance doubly
sure, the little man explained with
some insistence, "You see, have had
my Endorsement certified.
The check was paid without hesita-
tion, but the teller said to himself,
"Why is that idiot standing there with
such broad grin, trying to fix his face
on my memory" And duly he took
note.
A few days later the man appeared
at the window again, his countenance
distended in the same smile, with an
other check from the same firm, The
Endorsement was certified in exactly the
same way, and this time the amount
was 5000. There was absolutely moth
ing wrong with the check on it's face,
and it came from we'll known CUSTOM
er Of the bank. ''In spite of all, :" said
the paying teller, something told me
that fellow was crook. So I said
should have to look up the account be-
fore it could be paid, and while he
waited l slipped around to the FIRMS
office, which was only short distance
away.
1.-THE check was examined and pro-
nounced perfectly good, and I was about
to walk away. when the head Of the
firm said: Why, hold up. We've issued
no checks this morning And then
went back and bagged my crook. He
had first sold the firm bond aud. got
his original 500 check in payment.
This he had used to initiate the firms
signature on the second and likewise
to impress me with the fact that be was
all right. SO that when he came around
second time would not bother him. I"

why She Liked Hypnotisu,.

A young woman from Washington
has discovered practical use for hyp-
notism and declares that at last she sees
its value. She was visiting a young
artist, who, with her ohaperon, observes
all the proprieties, in studio up town
in New York city. The Washington
young woman was called on by her
physician, who happens to be skilled in
the ways and wiles Of hypnotism. The
chaperon was eager, as many women
seem to be, to be hypnotized when the
conversation turned on that subject and
the DOCTORS skill with the art.
The doctor was a trifle chary about
showing his powers. but the two
younger women begged him to crafty
the elder woman's curiosity. The chap
eron smiled to herself and dubbed
with delight when the doctor finally
consented to experiment on her. In Is
minutes 1t was the turn Of the two girls
to bubble with satisfaction. Under the
doctors persuasive power the chaperon
was lost to the world and all but the
M. D. g power.
At lastp' exclaimed the Washing
ton girl. Here at last is practical use
for hypnotism. Anything that can put
a chaperon to sleep is worth having
about. Teach NE, oh, doctorp '-New

Where Brides Are Hungry.

How would an English bride care to
fast on her wedding day until after the
sacred ceremony, and this after endur-
ing the hardships of farewell party
given the day before? Yet this is what
Russian girl is supposed to do. AS the
marriage, to be fashionable, should not
occur until evening, it may easily be
imagined in what an exhausted state
she is to commence her new period Of
life.
Besides bridesmaids there are brides
men, these latter being obliged to pre-
sent the bridesmaids with sweetmeats.
A parsonage follows the procession bear
ing an elegantly mounted picture of
Christ in gold and silver, which is sta
toned against the altar. The brides
maids do not all dress alike, and their
number is unlimited. -Lndon An

RHEUMATISM.
New Terrors In Store For Sufferers From
%ha little Understood Disease.

Now VeTTOf6 III 6COTo T OI 6uucI0Eb = xOAAA
the Little Understood Disease.
Now we are told that not only are
cancer and consumption contagious, as
we'll as several other diseases long re-
Qarded as individual, but that rheulna-.
tism may be transmitted from one per-
son to another by contact as well as by
heredity This is the more alarming be-
cause rheumatism, for which there are
more sure cures than a pharmacist can
compound in week, is virtually incur
able by drugs and is the disease Of all
diseases that is not understood by the
medical profession. Nobody knows ex-
actly or approximately what rheuma
tism is It Is described with high de-
gree of positiveness in medical books,
but the fact that affections wholly I'M
like are classed under the general head
of rheumatism is proof that there is no
certain knowledge Of its character. 1t
is found to be associated with disorders
of the throat and stomach and with dis
tinctly nervous affections. The varieties
run from muscular rheumatism to neu
ralgia, yet as to what tissues are most
involved in the worst form of the dis
ease and in what manner they are in
volved there are as many opinions as
there are varieties Of rheumatism.
The rheumatic patient, who some
times suffers all the pangs Of govt, has
a hard enough time of it at best with
out being regarded as center Of phys
ical as well as moral pestilence. He is
irritable, pugnacious, impatient, un-
grateful and profane. His immediate
relations bear with these mortal infrm-
tiles because Of the obvious reality Of
his sufferings. They generously put
themselves within the range and reach
Of his shoes or whatever missiles he has
at'hand, in order that he may vary the
monotony of pain with the pleasure Of
personal assault. To announce the con-
tagiousness of rheumatism is to drive
away from his bedside all sympathetic
and enduring friends. When they wit
ness the moral decay Of good man in
the clutches Of this disease, they are
naturally disposed to save themselves
by flight from like condition.
What the victims of rheumatism have
a right to maintain is that the doctors
know too little about the disease. They
are too helpless in its violent stage to
have any warrant for further dogmatio
af1rmations about it If rheumatism is
to be classed among the contagious dis
eases, it will be necessary to regulate
the Turkish bath establishments as we
do smallpox hospitals, or they will be-
come centers from which rheumatism
will radiate like cholera from oriental
wells Man is kept busy enough dodg
ing the microbes Of other diseases with
out being compelled to ward OFF rheu-
matism. Louis Globe Democrat
