The popularity of a cork leg is that
apart from the name there isn't YES
tige of cork about it. The origin of the

The sacred fires of India have not all
been eXtinguished. The most ancient

Won HUMBOLDT'S BLUNOER.
Eager to See Lunatic, the Naturalist
Meets BaIzac.

During one of his visits to Paris Hum
boldt expressed to his friend, DR..
Blanche, the distinguished authority
on matters concerning insanity, a de-
sire to meet one of his patients.
Nothing easier" said the doctor.
Come and take dinner with me to-mor-
row."
The next day Humboldt found him
self seated at the dinner table of the
famous doctor in company with two
guests to whom he had not been in
troduced. One of them was dressed in
black, with a white cravat and gold
trimmed spectacles. He had a smooth
face, very bald head, and sat with
great gravity through the entire dinner.
He was a gentleman of undoubted man
ners, but exceedingly taciturn. He
bowed, ate and said not word.
The other guest on the contrary wore
great shock of hair brushed wildly,
his shabby blue coat was buttoned
askew, lbs collar was ruspled, and the
ends of his cravat tloated over his
shoulders, He helped himself, ate and
talked at the same time.
Story after story did this incoherent
person tell. He mixed the past with the
present, flew from Swedenborg to
Fourier, from Cleopatra to Jenny Lind,
from Archimedes to Lamartine, and
talked politics and literature in the
same breath.
At the dessert HUMBOLDT managed to
say quietly to his host, CHANGING at the
fantastic parsonage, who was still talk
ing: Il am very much obliged to you.
Your maniac amuses me immensely"
The doctor looked startled.
You made a mistake about the
maniac" he said at the earliest moment
when they were alone together. THE
brilliant talker wasn't the lunatic; the
silent one is my patient; the talller is
the famous Balzac, the novelist. Chi

LAWS AGAINST WOMEN.
One of the Most fragrant Cases of
Injustice Cited.

ne law Wnlcn makes the natlOna1tY
of a wife depend on that of her hus-
band has worked much hardship in this
country as well as abroad. But one of
the most fragrant cases of injustice
arising from this humiliating status is
cited by Agnes f. Cook as occurring at
Gibraltar, the British military station
on the Mediterranean.
No alien can live in Gibraltar without
special permit, so if a British girl mar
ries Il Spanish subject she passes out
she nor her children, even though she
be a widow, can return. Her male rel
atives can marry Spanish wives and
take them into Gibraltar. but she is an
alien forever. The case referred to is
that of British girl who married a
Spaniard named Garzon. He was suffi-
GENTLY useful to the British to be al
lowed to live there by special permit.
Last year he died and it would have
seemed very proper for his widow to
have remained with her parents in Glib
raltar. who were very anxious to make
q lOl HtI anu W nave her WITH
them. Her baby was born five days
otter her husbands death. and the au-
thorities generously allowed her to re-
main with her mother until she had
somewhat recovered from her illness.
Her mother by her entreaties oh.
tanned from the police an extension OF
this time for ten days, but then the
poor young woman, in enfeebled health
and without means of support, was
obliged to quit the garrison. It takes
an individual outrage like this to show
the possible and legitimate outcome OF
the unjust discrimination against the
married woman. If men had DELHI
erately planned how they could keep
self-respecting women out of the mar
riage condition they could not have de
vised any measure worse than the dis
abilities which law has heaped upon
woman in marriage. Signal.

A NIGHT MEMORANDUM LAMP.
One of the Varied Uses of the In
cnndcscent Electric Light.

Many of my best and most valua bla
and most merchantable thoughts" said
a man who writes things for a living.
come to me after | have gone to bed at
night. II is true that cares Cypress me
sometimes then and keep me awake,
but not often; that is usually my time
for building castles in the air, and for
having people leave me fortunes, and
for conjuring up all manner of good
luck; and in this joyous mental atmos-
phere often have happy ideas that can
be worked up and turned to account.
Formerly, before | went to bed, |
used to put my idea pad, with pencil
by it, on a shelf in an adjoining room
near gas jet, left burning low, as
didn't want a light in my sleeping room.
When an idea struck me would get out
Of bed, go into the next room, turn up
the light, make a note of it, and go back
to bed. But | didn't always do this. I
wasn't what you would call lazy, but if
it was a very cold night or | was very
tired | would say to myself that
thought | could remember that, and
so | would take the chances, and then
every time | would forget it. I don't
know how much money l lost by this,
but a good deal.
But now | have a little table at
the head of the bed with the pad and
pencil on that, and hanging down over
it an incandescent electric light. /
don't have to get out of bed at ALL
have only to turn the key of the shaded
light, pick up the pad and iot down the
idea. Then I put the pad down on the
table again and turn off the light.
"Now | lose nothing. | suppose
must have saved enough the first week
to pay for putting in the light, and
everything that I have in this way is
just so much clear profit. ~. Y. Sun.

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

We cannot see the sun itself; we sea
only the cloud of vapor that covers it,
like the mantle of Welsbaeh burner.
Prof. Elmer Gates, of Washington,
has recently improved the performance
of the microscope, and it is now posi-
BILE for the human eye to see an object
magnified 100000 times. Heretofore
10000 has been the limit.
The sun consists of three parts, the
central portion, or nucleus, which is
gaseous, but rendered viscous under ths
enormous pressure and high temper
ature. the philosophers of incandescent
metallic vapors, and the corona. which
is only observable during the time OF
total eclipse. ,
Of the 100000 square miles of Can
ada there are between 100000 and
100000 of square miles which will,
produce neither cereals nor forests Of
a commercial value. OF this territory
there is a tract of 100000 square miles
inhabited by fur-bearing animals, and
known to the Indians as the bare and
treelcSs plains, or the barren lands.
The working of plan of ventilation
of rooms devised by DR.. Castaing, prin-
cipal physician of the French armies,
is highly commended. 1t consists in the
use Of double windows, with openings
at the bottom of one and at the top of
the opposite one, through which the
air comes in freely without anyone feel
ing it. The system is said to possess
simplicity, efficiency and cheapness.
According to the recent calculations
of Prof. j. c. Kapteyn, of Amsterdam,
100000 miles a day is the velocity with
which the sun and its planets are speed
ing through space in a northerly direc-
ton. The brightest star in that part
of the heavens toward which we are 60
ing is the brilliant Vega. in the constel-
lation Lyra, sun unquestionably much
greater than ours. Every year, by Prof.
Kapetyn's estimate, we draw some 300,-
100000 miles nearer to that star.

BOUQUET WAS LOADED.
The Young Man Didn't Know 1t, and
Got Into Trouble.

A young society man of our neigh Dor
largely in excess of his pecuniary
means, has been in the habit of send
ing bouquet occasionally to the girl
of his choice. In order to remedy the
defect occasioned by his lack of ready
funds and to save the money required
for the purchase of expensive flowers
he made an arrangement with an indi-
gent gardener in his locality whereby
the latter was to furnish him a bou-
quet from time TO time in exchange
for some of his cast-off clothing.
1t thus happened one day that he re-
ceived a bunch of beautiful flowers,
which he at once sent off to his lady
love. In sure anticipation of friendly
welcome he called at the home of the
lady the following evening, and was not
a little surprised at the frosty reception
he met with.
You sent me note yesterday" the
young woman remarked, i'll the most
frigid of tones.
ia note?" he inquired, in blank as
constituent.
Certainly; along with bouquet"
II certainly sent the flowers, but 7
know nothing of the note"
But, sir, there was note inside
Do you still mean to deny it? Look"
With these words she handed the
dumfounded swain a scrap of paper, on.
which was written this message:
Don't forgit them old pants you
promist me the other day."-Paris

Animals That Cycle.

II may surprise many to learn that
there actually exist a large number Of
animals and birds which derive almost
as much enjoyment as human cyclists
from trips on the bicycle. Of course
considerable time and patience were
necessary to educate them up to the
appreciation of the finest health giving
pastime on earth As might be ex-
pected, monkeys take an easy first
place after mankind in their regard
of the wheel. Besides these, dogs have
been trained to ride cycles. Members of
the feathered world have proved apt
pupils in cycling, and there are at least
two cockatoos whose command of the BIZ
cycle is as perfect as it is wonderful.
One belongs to the Bellonis, the owner
of the very talented family of birds,
and, besides ordinary riding, it gives
an aerial performance, riding a tight
wire. The other clever cockatoo was
trained by Mile. Irma Orbasono, and
rides tricycle.. But these two birds use
their bealls for the purpose of steering
their machines and pedal with their
claws.-London Cycle.

The Queen OF spain's Busy Life.

Spain is essentially lazy country
In all ranks the people rise late and
turn night into day; but the queen
regent-~a tall, graceful woman, look
ing younger than her years, sets them
an excellent example. Up at seven,
her first care is given to her children,
and by eight o'clock she is already at
work with her secretary. It is only
after lunch, toward two o'clock, that
she allows herself an hour of we'll
earned rest, and some idea of Qr>en
Christmas thoroughness may be gained
by the fact that she no longer speaks
German-her native tongue--save to
those few Teutons who find their way
to Madrid. When she first came
bride from Vienna to Spain she had
mastered but imperfectly the language.
Now she talks Spanish correctly. and
has, alone and unaided, acquired real
knowledge of the splendid literature OF
her adopted country. When speaking
of her son she seldom refers to him as
his majesty" or 1.-The king" usually
1t is my boy" or my little one" She
makes no outward difference between
the three children, but it is easy to see
that her heart is specially bound up in
