A Breezy Yarn About . Chimney Which
." Must Not Be Believed.

." Must Not Be Believed.
Turnkey Tomlinson Of the Twenty
eighth district police station spins some
marvellous yarns for the benefit Of the ten
derfoot reporter who visits bis precinct in
search Of news. "Talk about cold air
drafts" he remarked one evening, al
though not soul bad mentioned the SUBJ
ject, IT remember once down In Kentucky
I helped to build big stone chimney.
The scaffolding was on the inside, and we
all caught severe colds from the draft.
When the scaffolding was being taken
down, the current Of air was so strong that
we found 1t much easier to allow the
boards and trestles to scud out the top OF
the chimney with the current Of air as soon
as they were detached than to pass them
"When the chimney was cleared Of the
scaffolding, the drawing power was ter
rife. To make fire was out OF the ques.
tion. Shavings, wood, everything went up
the chimney and out at the top. 1t was
necessary to get out Of the line Of the draft
for safety. The table was suddenly seized
In the current, crash Of broken legs, and
up the chimney Invent Then the ohurn,
the chairs, the oat, which held on for dear
life to the carpet with its claws, when,
whishl carpet, cat and all went up the
fume. Shortly darky came in with g
thick cord wood stick over his shoulder.
The suction grabbed him, but the stick
stuck crosswise In the chimney, which
gave us time enough to wall her up.
Now 1t is only used as wind siren to call
the hands In the distillery by pulling ont
stone at Its base and letting the air
whistle through'it." And the tenderfoot
reporter wandered out into the night In a
dazed manner.-Philadelphia Record.

Names Of Dishes,

The names bestowed upon certain dishes
hayeioften an origin entirely distinct from
technical consideration. This is true Of
the we'll known epigrammes d'agneau q La
Miohelet or Ia Toulouse, as 1t is more
frequently called. Michelet was the cook
of q young French marquiss Of the last
century, who was noted for her lack Of
education. On certain occasion she gave
q dinner to the officers Of the regiment
Choiseul- -Cavalerie. During the function
her guests spoke of a banquet that they
had attended on the previous evening, at
which the host had entertained them with
many new and brilliant epigrams. The
marquise supposed that "epigrams" re-
ferred to culinary surprises. Consequently
she summoned Michelet, her cook, and or
dered him to prepare some epigrams for
dinner on the following day. Michelet
was greatly troubled as to how he was to
obey the order. He reoollsoted, however,
that he had in the larder some very super
ior lamb. he praised the breast, removed
the bones, cut the meat into pieces and
bread orumbed and fried them. He then
cooked the outlets, arranged them on a
dish alternately with the braised breast
and served them with a suitable garnish
under the name of epigrammes d'agneau
q Ia Miohelet, by which name, or q la
Toulouse, the ooncootion has ever since
been known.-New York Sun.

planted mulberry trees, upon The leaves OF

Mr.. Glbert's grandmother always took

ed her work.
The Hugenots when they came to this coun.
try about l669, brought the first OF the silk
worms. and not until between l840 and 1850
was the manufacture Of silk In this county
abandoned. Mrs. Baskin was among the last
to give up the work. The industry involved
constant and careful attention, consequently
the product was necessarily small. The pro.
duction OF cotton and the cheapness OF cotton
cloth superseded the demand for silk which
was much higher in price.
Two hundred years ago our people wore
silk and linen. Later linen largely suppressed.
ed silk. Still later cotton superseded linen.
And here we are. Even George Washington
never wore q cotton shirt. and never slept be.
tween cotton sheets. He wore linen, and
slept between linen sheets.

Sick III eadache.

The following cure for sick headache
has been used with success, and is
much to be preferred to powerful
drugs which iniure the system, and,
if, taken repeatedly, are found to lose
their efficacy. At the same time it is
we'll to remember that pain is natures
danger signal, and warming to rest.
After driving off the headache, lie
down for all hour or two and keep as
quiet as possible during the rest of the
day. Neither the brain not the
stomach should be taxed for twenty
four hours. Mix q tablespoonful Of
cayenne pepper to thick paste with
vinegar, spread it on a strip ofsthin
cloth, which may be folded together,
and bind on the forehead, from temple
to temple. Then swallow a pinch"
of the peppea-say quarter or salt
spoonful-in teaspoonful Of vinegar
or lemon juice. The plaster will burn,
but not blister, and in the course of ten
minutes the headache will disappear
under, the stimulating effect of the
treatment.

This we'll known citizen of Abbeville now
lies In the neighboring town OF Laurens In

he has so long suffered. Upon animation

that 1t was feared at one time that he might
not recover from It, and news came to Aobe-

ENGLAND'S PERIL.
What Would Happen If the Road to Lsn-
don Were Open.

What Would Happen II the Road to Lsn-
don Were Open.
If the single idea were entertained that
the road to London was open, the effect OF
that idea would be for the hour ruin such
as the world has never witnessed: The
panic might, we believe would, suspend
the whole social organization Of the king
dom. All banks would shut their doors.
The means Of paying wages would be un.
procurable, masses Of men threatened
with starvation would be raging In oity
streets as the Athenian mob ragged, and
unless parliament had very trusted leaders
it's deliberations might only add to the
general confusion. London knows in
stinotiyely that, II attacked by triumph
ant enemy, 1t can neither be defended nor
fed; that, in fact, its only solid protection
would be victory in the field, and London,
If 1t got out Of hand, would be q pande-
monium such as only shells could reduce
to order. We English despise foreign ma
tions because their capitals are liable to
excitement" panic, aimless insurrection-
ary movements, or revolts like that Of the
commune, but we have no experience
which justifes our overweening confidence.
We have no more idea of what London
would be under the influence of terror
than what the solar system would be II
the law of gravitation were suspended. All
might be, all would be, put right in time,
for the national character Is sound. There
must be 900, 1000 men in the island who
have been through the military mill, and
the supply Of varied capacity is unlimited,
but the influence Of the dark week would
be felt all throughout our subsequent his
tory. Just imagine the effect Of the tele.
grams upon India, upon the colonies, upon
the whole Of the mercantile "plant" scat
tered over earth-of which the mercantile
marine is only part-accessible to the
news. The week would cost US national
debt in money alone, besides its future ef-
fect in the destruction of the idea that
England is in the world the one inviolable

wealth.-London Spectator.

Tho Cars Ring.

The czar Of Russia Is said to be very su-
perstitious and to have great confidence IN
relics. He wears ring in which he be-
lieves Is embedded a piece Of the true
Gross. It was originally one of the treas
ures of the Vatican, and was presented to
an ancestor Of the czar for diplomatic rea-
eons. The value which the ozar sets upon
the ring, with its embedded relic, is shown
by the following fact: Some years ago the
czar was travelling from ST. Petersburg to
Moscow. He suddenly discovered that he
had forgotten the ring. The train was
stopped Immediately and a special messen-
ger sent flying back on an express engine
for It, Nor would the ozar allow the train
to move until, several hours afterward, the
messenger returned with the ring.
