ArgeIander,a wit.

AS Hansen was Germany's greatest
master in mathematical astronomy, SO
was the venerable Highlander in the OBJ
servati7)nal side of the science, says
Professor Simon Newcomb in The At
lantic He was of the same age as the
newly crowned emperor. and the two
were playmates at the time Germany
was being overrun by the armies of Ma
poleon. He was held in love and respect
by the entire generation of young as
tronomers. both Germans and foreign
ers, many of whom were proud to have
had him as their preceptor. Among
these was Dr. B. A. Gould, who fire.
quently related story of the astron-
omer's wit. When with him as a stu
dent, he was beardless and had good
head of hair. Returning some years lat
er, he had become bald, but had made
up for it by having full long beard.
He entered Argelander's study unan-
nounced. The astronomer looked at him
with some surprise, not at first recog-
nizing him.
"Do you not know me, Herr Profess
or?''
The astronomer looked more closely.

The Innocence of Childhood.

AS the tour de force of an entertain
ment once given at an English country
house it was arranged that the children
should present an original play, to be
entirely written and acted by them
selves The play turned out to be sur
prisingly we'll written and would have
won much praise but for the ending.
This was the story of the play:
A gallant knight joined the brave
King Richard in one of his crusades in
Palestine. Nothing having been heard
from him for more than seven years. the
conviction was forced on his faithful
wife that he was dead. The villain came
to her and wanted her to marry him,
but at the critical moment the knight
reappeared and clasped in his arms his
lady, who had never ceased to love him.
Then explanations came, and he told Of
his many noble achievements. ''In
short, dear wife," said he, ST have
never been idle an instant. -
"And /, too, my lord, have not been
idle, she said with pride. "Seel' And
here she led out before the electrified
audience four lovely children to be pre-
sented for the first time to their father.

Valuable Record.

When the furniture of Charles James
Fox, the famous English orator and
statesman, was sold by auction, there
was among the books copy Of the first
volume of Gibbons Roman history.
It appeared by the title page that the
book had been presented by the author
to Fox, but no considerations of senti-
ment deferred the recipient from writ
ing on the fly leaf this anecdote:
"The author at Brookes' said there
was no salvation for this country until
six heads of the principal persons in adj
ministration were laid on the table.
Eleven days after this same gentleman
accepted place of lord of trade, under
those very ministers, and has acted with
them ever since >
Such was the avidity of bidders anx-
ious to secure the least scrap of the writ
ing and composition of the famous own
er of the copy that owing to the addi-
tion of this little record the book sold
for 8 guineas a large sum for the times.

M ono stonped the 100.

The morning after the assassination
OF President Lincoln the telegraph oper-
Rtor Of small town in Ohio read q
passing dispatch which conveyed the
sorrowful information to him. This
speedily spread through the surrounding
country, and at II O'Clock, when the
mail train was due, nearly l00men had
congregated to buy morning paper
AS a matter of course not a single pa
per remained, and all were in despair,
until some one remembered that the
postmaster was a regular subscriber,
and that the mail bag must contain a
morning newspaper addressed to him.
The coveted paper found, the aged
postmaster proceeded to read to the peo-
pie who had crowded into the long
store the details of the murder In the
crowd stood a very patriotic but igno-
rant old man, who was ever making
pertinent suggestions.
The voice of the reader faltered more
than once as he read the account, now
SO familiar to all Americans. Finally
he reached the point where it was said
of Booth that he "shrieked out Sic
semper tyrannis, leaped ON the stage
and made his escape.
Throwing his old poke hat upon the
floor, the patriotic old man lifted his
hand aloft and shouted:
GOOD gracious! Why didn't some
body have sense enough to stop the
stagef Chicago Chronicle.

A Trio of Bulls.

The following remark is by high
land clergyman. In his sermon preached
in small church i'll Strathspey, after
inveighing against slothfulness, he said
in closing, do you think Adam and
Eve went about the garden of Eden
with their hands in their pockets?"
Last year, in the north Of Ireland,
the following came under my observa-
tion. In hotel the porter, for my in
formation and dutifully in furtherance
of the interests of his employers, re-
marked, IL you want a drive, sir, you
needn't go out Of the hotel, meaning,
of course, that carriages formed part of
the establishment. Another bull was
in a conversation overheard between
two Workmen. One put the ques-
ton, Were you acquainted with So
and-so?' to which the reply was, emo;
he was dead before knew him. !"
An Irish friend of mine was describ-
ing dinner party he had been at. It
was a great success, as two noted talk
ers were present, each Of whom was
talking so fast that neither could get in
a word.

Tobacco In England.

In regard to the suggestion which is
sometimes.ma that one way to relieve
agricultural depression in this country
would be for the government to allow
and even to encourage the growth of TO-
baoco, it may be interesting tonote how
long the prohibition has lasted and how
sternly it has been enforced. This may
be gathered from the following extract:
"Cornet Wakefield with a party of
horse marching out Of Glocester upon
the last of July to Wincheome and
Cheltnam to destroy the Tobacco plant
ed in these parts, the Country did rise
against them in great body, to the
number of or 600, giving them very
revileing and threatning speeches. even
to kill them horse and man, if that he
and his Soldiers did come on, insomuch
that the tumult being SO great, he was
CONSTRAINED to draw off and nothing
more done" (Mercurius Politicus, 20

physician to arfga and It's 500
what of surprise bow many sufferers
there are among department clerks
from this trouble. The thing seems to
grow among them. and they have their
headaches as regularly as they have
their work.
A simple remedy which is worth try
ing is to put a rubber band around the
head just above the ears. The band
should not be tight enough to stop the
circulation of the blood. The band
known as the string band is generally
sufficiently heavy for the purpose. 1t
should be applied just as soon as it is
noticed that the headache is setting in
and taken off the moment the pain
ceases. In many cases the rubber band
works nicely, though it affords no re-
lief when the headache is the result Of
stomach troubles or biliousness.
IT find also that rubber band twist
ed about toe between the corn and the
foot is handy remedy to stop the pain
from jumping corn. Corns are very
liable to be troublesome when there is
much humidity in the atmosphere. The
rubber band seems to temporarily quiet
the nerves in the toe, and in this way
stop the pain. AS in the case of band
around the head, the pressure should not
be tight enough to stop the circulation
of the blood. - Washington Star.
