Nicknnmed by Architects.

These young architects are merciless
chaps when they are discussing the
work of some one else. The spire of
one of the new churches In Boston al
ways attracts my attention. Away
up aloft there are angels, gracefully
poised, each with n trumpet mt mouth
and leaning far out on the air that
swims around them. l have admired
that group most nightly. l was COM
menting In that strain In the hearing
of Boston architect
"Of what church are you speaking?'
queried the architect.

"Oh, yes" said he carelessly, "the
Church of the Holy Beanblowers
That's what comes of lack of sense OF
proportion. Those trumps are toe
slender"
And now l can no longer admire that
seraphic group on the spire. I strive
to think OF angels, and fetch up by
thinking of beanblowers.
And another church in Boston Is in
architects terms the "Church of the
Holy Thermometer" on account OF
some decoration meant TO be imposing
And another is the "Church of the
Kindergarten Steeples"-for there Ii

Cheese In Swiss Families.

The social rank of family in Swift
zerland is estimated by the age of its
cheese, and the greater the respect due
to or the affection for guest the older
Is the cheese set before him. There
are In each pantry at least as many
cheeses us there are boys and girls in
the family, for at the birth Of every
child a cheese is made.
1t Is first cut into on his or her wed
ding day, on which festive occasion all
the guests partake of piece of the
groom's and the brides cheese in order
to secure for them all earthly thrift
and happiness. The rest is served as
token of friendly souvenir and heart
felt mourning after the tomb has clos
ed over his or her earthly career.
Moreover, when a Swiss youth falls
In love and wishes to pay court to the
girl of his heart he goes to her father
and asks permission to share the fami
ly dinner next Sunday. This Is al
ways granted IL he is respectable, fol
it would be considered deadly insult
to refuse. The anxious question in his
mind is, "Will papa bring out the
cheese?"
Papa does not usually hurry to re
lieve his fears, having the family dig
nifty in mind and wishing to proceed
with due deliberation. If he is indeed
satisfied with the suitor, he at length
rises from his seat, goes solemnly tc
the cupboard, takes down the oldest
piece of cheese, splits it and hands a

Habit In /. Horses Work,

Ing business short time ago" said n
well known man, 81 had n number of
horses that l was anxious to dispose
of, Among them was one named Jer-
ry. which for several years had been
used to working on drum. In such
work Il horse becomes accustomed To
lifting his feet high to avoid striking
the hoisting ropes. When the horses
were put under the hammer. Jerry
went to n Harlem grocer,
About week later the purchaser
of Jerry called at my house and told
me that he had lot OF trouble with
the horse. He said that Jerry would
so a short distance. when he would
stop short aud lift his feet high, and
after doing this would go little far.
ther, only TO repeat 1t again, told the
grocer why the horse stopped short
and lifted his feet and also advised
him TO look up some contractor and
sell the animal TO him for hoisting pur
poses. He did SO, notifying me that hc
received II larger price than he PAID
me for the horse."-New York Sun.

NIGHTMARE.
The Sensation That Always Makes n

The Sensation That Always Makes n
Man n Coward.
Strange that we are always so cow
ardly in nightmares" remarked a New
Orleans lawyer who has a taste for
the bizarre. II don't believe anybody
ever lived who stood up and made .
square stand against the amorphous
horror that invariably pursues us in
such visions. When l have a night
mare and the usual monster gets on
my trail, my blood turns to water, and
my conduct would disgrace sheep.
am beside myself with stark, down
right fear, and | have no idea left in
my head except to run like rabbit.
All pride, self respect, dread Of ridicule
and even the instinct q: aelf defense
are scattered to the winds, and / be-
lieve, honestly, | would be capable OF
any infamy In order to escape l have
no hesitation IN confessing this, be-
cause, as far as l have been able to
find out, everybody acts exactly the
same way in the throes Of nightmare,
and | feel certain / would not make
such pltiable spectacle of myself in
real life no matter what might befall.
81 think that the explanation of the
nightmare panic is to be found in the
fact that the dream Is almost invari-
ably accompanied by sense Of suffo-
cation. 1t is well established that
choking-the shutting off of ones
wind to use homely phrase-has an
effect upon the mind which is entirely
distinct and different from that pro
duced by any other form Of pain or
| peril. 1t fills the victim with such hor-
ror and distraction that he Is for the
moment Insane. He will do anything
to get relief. This has been brought
out on more than one occasion In the
defense of men who have been choked
and killed their nssallants, and judges
have held that the circumstances OF
such an attack should be given special
consideration as extenuating the deed
In dreams the entire nervous system Is
relaxed, and 1t Is natural to suppose
that the mental effect of suffocatior
would be intensified. At least, that Is
the best apology have to offer for my
sprints through nightmare land."-New

The honeybird is well known deni-
zen Of many parts Of the Transvaal
1t has the unique popularity that it
does not fear men and women, but
actually flies up to them, utteripg a
plaintive low note and, flying about
their heads, tries to lead them on to
the nearest clump of rocks or kopje.
The bird knows full well that under a
certain rock lies store of honey, con-
cealed by the cunning bees, and, rock
honey being as much esteemed by
birds as by human beings, the clever
little fellow tries to induce friendly
being with two strong hands to push
aside the rock, so that it may get to
the honey.
If it succeeds in it's object and the
traveller on the veldt, attracted by the
birds flutterings to and fro between
himself and the rocks, finds the honey,
the bird changes its plaintive tone to
one of joy aud pleasure, as much as to
say, "Tbank you very much"

after the old gentleman had engaged in

quarter of an hour he excused himself,
went out, and the eldest son next enter
ed and entertained the young man for
about a quarter OF an hour. Then an

aroused when the mother took her
turn. x little sister came next, follow

rubbed itself against the young mans
newly pressed trousers.

an hour spent in misery, his sweet

In little town or village In Glouces-

contains the mortal remains of one of
the old Crusaders. In moldering eff

by his side in cold eloquence Is imaged
the form of his wife. 1t will be noticed
by even the casual observer that the
female image Is bereft of one of the
hands, and the story runs that the
Crusader, while fighting in the east
was made prisoner of war and
brought before Saladin, who, before
executing Judgment upon him, asked
him IL there was any reason why he
should not be put to death. To this
the knight replied that he was but
young, and would leave II newly welded
wife, who would bitterly mourn his
loss.

breath" retorted the sultan. Your
wife will forget that you have ever
lived; she will love again and marry
another" TO this the sad knight
could only reply that on her fidelity
he could rest his soul. "Well, then"
replied Saladin, 81 will promise on my
oath as n soldier that IL this mans
wife win cut OFF one Of her hands and

An Extraordinary Island.

In the bay Of Plenty. New Zealand,
is one Of the most extraordinary is
lands in the world. 1t is called White
island and consists mainly of sulphur
mixed with gypsum and few other
minerals. Over the island, which Is
about three miles in circumference and
which rises between 800 and 900 feet
above the sea, floats continually an
immense cloud of vapor attaining an
elevation of 10000 feet In the center
Is boiling lake of acid charged water
covering so acres and surrounded with
blowholes from which steam and sui
phurous fumes are emitted with great
force and noise. With care boat can
be navigated on the lake. The sulphur
from White island is very pure, but
little effort has yet been made to pro-
cure 1t Systematically.
