HELPS LIE PLUMBER r.


Pipe and Creates Sewer Gas.
One of tho most persistent and de-
structiye assistants tho plumber has is
the house rat A rat can eat out plumb
ing as fast as an average honest man
can pay for it, To rat greasy lead
pipo is toothsome morceau. When
hungry rat forsakes the barn and finds
his way into the cellar of "a house and
thence up through the walls to the
space between tho floors, tho first thing
he tackles is the grease on the outside
OF lead waste pipe. If he finds other
food shortly thereafter. he spares the
pipe, otherwise he eats the pipe and the
water escapes through to the ceiling
below and ruins the plaster. The plumb
er is sent for and repairs the leak but
he doesn t tell what caused it.
Once upon "a time Il rat WAS 'haist
by his awn petard, 50 to speak. He
got into house and found his way II Il
lend pipe, on which he tried his teeth.
1t was pleasant chewing and put a fine
edge On his teeth, SO he continued. Soon
he had eaten large hole in the pipe
aud stream of sealding water poured
forth Before he could escape he had
been Scalded to death, To say nothing Of
being drowned. But he had the Satisfac-
ton of knowing that he had ruined
fine ceiling and that the carpet under
meath it had been soaked full of lime
water. There is no great loss without
some small gain.
Just to show what they could do,
some rats once ate 90 feet of lead pipe
under u bathroom and over the kitchen
of big hotel in this city. The floor Of
tho bathroom was marble and under it
was a tireproof floor made Of iron beams
and hollow tiles. The pipes were laid
in the space between the floor and the
Orders. Rats were attracted thereto by
the od0rs from the kitchen. They met
the lead pipes. When their appetites
were satisfied, the space was filled with
lead dust.
Rats like to eat drain pipes from
kitchen sinks because they are lined
with grease. The only way to keep
them away is to pack the pipes with
mineral wool. Mineral wool is Il sub
stance made of furnace Stag through
which a jet of air has been forced while
it cooled.s Tho mineral wool gets into
tho eyes of the rats and drives them
away. Modern plumbers discourage rats
by laying iron instead of lead pipes
Rats, strange to say, are great breed
ers of sewer gas They gather up bones
and scraps of meat about tho kitchen
yard and carry them up into the rafters
between floors and ceilings, The pres
ence of this plumber is sooner or later
discovered by the odor, and the plumber
is sent for to discover whence the sewer
gas comes. 1t is not always we'll to tell
the housekeeper the truth.
Thus 1t is the humble brown house
rat helps his friend the plumber earn
an honest livelihood and the plumber
thanks him i'll his own gentle way.

Sam Jones is the embodiment of an
audaCity that sometimes comes very
near the border line of diseourtesy. \
clergyman who often assists him in his
series of meetings told me the other day
this story i'll the early history of Mr.
Jones evangelistic work: He was in.
vited by DR.. Talmage to hold IA series of
meetings in tho doctors Brooklyn
church. Mr.. Jones went to DR.. Tai
IMAGES home during the afternoon of
the day on which his engagement began
and introduced himself. Mr.. Talmage
looked him over and was evidently n lit
tie taken aback Mt the rather shabby ap-
pearance of the evangelist. AS it APP
preached evening he said, Brother
Jones, would you take it amiss if pre-.
sented you with new suit of clothes?
Certainly not, " said the accommodate
ing Samuel. He was taken to clothier
and fitted from head to foot, topping all
with high hat
At church the doctor introduced him
as the Rev. Samuel p. Jones from
Georgia. Mr.. Jones arose with his new
hat i'll hand and repeated, "Yes, the
Rev. Samuel p. Jones from Georgia, :"
and added; and this is the new suit
of clothes and this the new hat your
pastor has presented to me. If your pas
tor had as much of the grace of God i'll
his heart as he has pride, he would con
vert all Brooklyn and would not need
me. '-IIomiletic Review.

wilkes buttons.

Wilkes had the courage which does
not always accompany II sarcastic
tongue for he fought two duels and
was nearly killed i'll ono of them, and
when challenged ON third occasion he
behaved himself, ON the authority of
Croker, who was certainly no admirer OF
his, like man of temper and honor. v
His most serious encounter was with
Mr.. Martin, and Wilkes was only saved
by two buttons diyerting the bullet.
One of his admirers procured these pre-
cious relics and put them i'll II case with
the following inscription, These two
simple yet invaluable buttons, under
Providence, preserved the life Of my be-
loved and honest friend John Wilkes in
duel fought with Mr. Martin on the
10th of November, 1863, when true
courage and humanity distinguished
him in IA manner scarcely known in for.
mer ages.
His inyincible bravery, as we'll in the
field as in the glorious assertion of the
liberty of the subject, will deliver him
down an unparalleled example of pub
lie virtue to all future generations. >"
Wilkes would probably have said to
this, as the Duke of Wellington to the
obsequious gentleman who escorted him
across Picoadilly, Don't be id
fool, sir P-Cornhill Magazine.

THE FIGHTING GURKHAs.
Something .fha-t the Men Who Win Some
of highlands Battles.

Something thu. the Men Who Win Some
of highlands Battles.
The Gurkhas, to whose valor we owe
SO much on the Indian frontier, are not
afraid of death in any shape or form,
have the instinct Of instant and unques
tioning obedience to orders from supe-
riors and take an actual and physical
delight in fighting. 1t is popular error
to suppose that they are without caste.
There are about 3 different castles
among them and several subdivisions in
each caste, but when serving in British
regiments and while on campaign
Gurkhas do not allow their caste sys-
TEN to interfere with their comforts and
will eat aud drink freely with Euro
peana and among themselves. They have
no objection to taking pull at Brit
ish soldiers flask and will share a
"chapati" with the most mental camp
follower They will gladly take cigar
or tobacco from European, but on no
account must a man of one caste smoke
in the company Of another.
All Gurkhas trace their descent from
the Raiputs of central India, the Thap-
pas and Gurungs especially claiming to
have the bluest Hindoo blood i'll India
running in their veins. They have,
however, intermarried for generations
with Monaghan women. One would
imagine therefore that in process Of
time distinctly new type, combining
the leading characteristics of both races,
would have been evolved, but as a mat
ter of fact the vast majority Of Gurkhas
are either Aryan or Chinese i'll their
cast of countenance. Europeans general
ly suppose that all Gurkhas are squat
men, with broad nostrils, high cheek
bones and deep set, narrow eyes. This
~ not the naso Tho Boooud Gurlkha1
regiment has large numbers of Gurungs
and Thappas iii its ranks who are OF a
slight build, with beautifully chiseled
and sharp features, Aryans every inch.
Gurkhas have one physical peculiar
ity-their stature is below the aver
age AS they do not wear boards and
their mustaches, in spite of much care,
never attain luxuriant growth, TO
IA casual observer Gurkha regiment
appears to consist of boys, not men. 1t
is on record that when Lord Roberts
was marching through the Kurram the
Pathan women and children came out
to jeer at the striplings whom he was
leading, Us it seemed, to their certain
death, and they only changed their
opinion when, largely owing to the
heroism of these same Gurkhas, the At
CHAN army was driven headlong from
the Peiwar kotal.
The colonel Of IL distinguished regi.
ment used to tell story OF IA Pathan
who had travelled long distance to get
glimpse of tho terrible soldiers that
had defeated his countrymen. When he
saw the little hoyish looking Gurkhas
standing guard at tho Bala Hissar, he
committed suicide for very shame. "
at least-and this is the best part of the
story-so the guard declared when asked
to explain the presence of the dead
body London News.
