KirIness.

In some portions Of Germany the
kirmess, or church mass, formerly
danced in honor of the dedication of a
church, is now observed with the special
character of harvest home 1t marks
the close of the years labors and is cele-
brated by three days Of music, feasting
and dancing with partners chosen or al
lotted, according to degrees of comeli-
ness, at the preceding May festival.
In southern Germany the end Of the
harvest is marked by the sickle feast.
The last sheaf is carried in triumph to
the barn and placed on the floor, while
the younger couples dance around it.
One half of it is then decked with rib.
bons and hung aloft, while the other
half is burned. It's ashes are treasured
as remedy for rheumatism and are
sometimes used in making amulets or

Eye Massage.

Whenever your organs OF sight feel
weak, do not claw at them with the
knuckles, SO to express it. You must
not massage your eyes the same way
you would the stronger parts of the
body. They need help from the hands,
but this help must be administered in
very gentle and delicate method.
John Quincy Adams had way Of
treating his eyes, which, it is said,
preserved their vision to old age, with
out the help of spectacles.
This was to place his thumb and fore
finger each upon an eyelid and gently
rub them toward the nose a number of
times each day. The action encourages
circulation of blood in that locality,
does away with the tiny spots that
sometimes float before the vision and
prevents that flattening of the lenses
which causes dimness Of sight at GER
tain focus.
1t is wonderful how much good can
be done the eyes of people of all ages by
using this simple exercise 10 or 15 min
utes each day.
If you are where it may not be con-
venient to measure time, as in the dark,
it is we'll to count the number of passes
made by the fingers over the eyes until
you have reached the number that you
have demonstrated by experiment that
time will allow.--New York Ledger.

A Much dourned Mother.

When Shafter was senior colonel OF
the army, he was temporarily in charge
Of some western post and numbered in
his command an exceedingly bright, Ca
pable fellow whose cleverness was con.
tinually getting him the noncommission
stripes and whose escapades were just
as frequently getting him reduced to
the ranks. One day this soldier turned
up at Skaters quarters with a long
face and applied for leave to attend the
funeral of his mother, who had died the
previous night, he said, in the town.
The request was granted but later on,
in looking over the same records, the
colonel discovered that the same man
had been granted leave the month before
on the identical pretext. Shafter said
nothing, but couple of days afterward
encountered the bereaved warrior on
parade ground. "Look here, my man, !"
said Pecos Bill solemnly, 81 want to
ask you question. Were you good to
that mother of yours while she was
alive?''
"Well, sir-yes, sir-that is, hope
so," stammered the culprit, not know

sons, but never of one dying twice in

opera house Monday evening for "a

success of this play has not yet reached
it's height, as is proved not only by the
wonderful success IL has made during
the last few weeks in Boston, New

unusual advance sale for the coming
engagement. THE Sign of the Cross"
is usually considered success because
of it's religious teachings and the con-

of religious people who do not as a rule

this is, without doubt, true i'm a meas

that, entirely aside from It's religious

American theatrical public were not
slow to recognize its merit, and run or

theatre was the result. The local man
