BAGS AT THE KNEES.
Hhy the Ladies Turned Down the Only
Nag Submitted.

Week before last the humble, dark
eyed citizen with the imported dia-
lect, whose duty it is to gather up
all the rags and waste to be found in
the East end Of the city, woke up one
morning and found himself face to
face with one Of the authorized min
ions of human society. After lot
Of talk the humble, law-fearing rag
picker discovered that the agent of
the society was on the premises to
kill the venerable white horse which
has ltasssalllleetal 1 the rag cart trelllgh
the length and breadth of the city for
close to 20 years According to this
humane agent the horse was all in, z
and had earned his claim for seimme-
dlate removal. When the ragman
had listened to all the agent had to
say be sought the seclusion Of back
room and engaged in earnest thought.
Half an hour later he eoncoeted a
scheme alike philanthropie and
unique. First of all he called at
the homes Of all the best people in
the neighborhood and told them his
Shard luck story As a result the
ragpicker suddenly found himself an
object Of sympathy. He told every
body that his business was ruined and
his heart broken. Then he intimated
that he needed another horse. A
lot of real society women shed becom-
ing tears over the details OF the rag
picker's nerve-straining story. Then
these society women decided that the
only proper thing for them to do was
to buy their pet ragman brand-new
horse. First Of all, one of the So
eiety women started a subscription pa
per, and the result was that they
raised S57in less than "a hours.
Then came the difficult part Of it
all. The ladies met and appointed a
committee. The members Of this
committee were expected to pass
Judgment on the various horses
brought before them for inspection.
After putting IN more or less event.
ful afternoon the ladies filed the ap-
pended report:
our committee beg leave to re-
port that the only horse submitted for
inspection is named Timothy, and
really will not do. His front legs bag
at the knees. And your committee
further report that no horse who bags
at the knees is deserving Of even pass
ing consideration. Milwaukee Sem

A PECULIAR INCIDENT.
Landslide Took Along House and ciss
tern of Water.

James Milburn, a farmer, residing
near Clarington, O., told Of a pc
euliar incident attending a landslide
in his neighborhood after heavy
rainstorm, says the Cincinnati En-
quirer.
Near the foot Of a steep hill stood
the house Of family named Reynolds,
and it was just above this building
that the break occurred. The ay-
aIanche Of earth and rocks moved
slowly, being 15 feet deep and tax
ing the house and several acres Of sur
rounding ground with it. The mem
bers of the family were aroused from
sleep, and hurriedly left the house in
their night clothes, thinking every
moment that the building would be
demolished. To the contrary, how
ever, it was not injured IN the least,
save crack in the plastering here and
there. It was found that the build
ing had been moved s. feet, but was
still standing on its original founda-
ton.
The most interesting point in the
incident lies in the fact that large
cistern moved along with the house,
and when the landslide stopped twas
found to be in apparent good order,
from all appearances not drop Of
water having leaked out of it.
The family has resumed housekeep-
ingin the old home, and allis going on
well.

KATEs ANSWER.


was only an unlearned farmer boy,
But dreamed dream of wonderful joy:~-
OF day when should be rich and great.
And ask for the heart of lovely Kate.
All, the time was the fragrant time of May,
And we leaned on the garden gate that day.
Said [: 'eTeu me, when 1 am rich and great,
And ask for your heart-ah, what OF my
fate?"
Said she: 'I cannot tell you that,
And toyed with the bow on her garden hat.
My full heart sank as heavy as lead;
/ turned to go, and wished was dead.
She reached her little hand out from the
gate,
And turned to hear the rest of my fate;
She bent her head with shy, sweet grace.
The roses blush covered all her face.
sine itftea her face quite near
MY heart stood still with its hope and Its
fear.

Cemetery for Chinese.

a Chinatown guide told a reporter
for the Washington Star that it is
within the bounds Of probability that
hereafter Chinese who die in Wash
ington may be inferred in Chinese
cemetery which it is proposed to es-
tablish near Pittsburg. Theshipment
of Chinese corpses on the trans-Pa-
cifc steamers Is prohibited by law, it
is said, and it is only the bonesof dead
Cinnamon which are sent to the Flow
cry Kingdom. The body Of China
man is not allowed by his compatriots
to permanently rest in alien soil, but
at last the bones are gathered upand
sent to that place which was the home
Of him who died The Chinese GEM
etery at Pittsbnrg will be, il IS said, a
large one, and Chinese dying within
wide radius will be inferred there.

a recent French notion. It was ex-

THE HOME TREATMENT.
tuberculosis Patients Should Live in ths
Open Air.

R. Fl. Babcock says, in the New
York Medical ] Journal, that the main
essentials Of treatment under any cir
cumstances are an abundance Of good
food and sojourn in the open air. To
these may be added judieious appli-
cation Of hydrotherapy. With per-
sons even in moderate circumstances
these requisites can be obtained at
home and often much better secured
there than at some Of the Faunted
health resorts. The main thing to
insist upon is to stay IN the open air.
Nearly every house has sheltered
porch, which can be utilized for this
purpose. The porch is screened off
by canvas curtains; or arough shed or
suitable tent may be erected in the
yard, SO that by lowering the curtains
on the side toward the wind or rain
the patient may be protected. Atthe
same time he is to be provided with
wraps and blankets with which to
cover himself in case he feels chilly.
IL he is so feeble that be is confined
to his couch an attendant should be
at hand, who may cover him mp, pro-
duce friction Of the extremities or
supply hot bottles # necessary. For,
in carrying out this open-air treat
ment successfully, it is absolutely
necessary to protect the invalid
against taking cold Even in our se-
we're climate it is possible, by select
ing a porch or constructing she'd
on the south side Of the house, and BY
putting a small stove near BY, to keep
patient IN the open air during most
Of the winter days. If the individual
sleeps IN his bedroom IN the house
then this should be the largest and
sunniest apartment, and its windows
should be kept open all day. Even at
night at least one window is to be
open, and by means Of a stove or fire.
place and screens the patient can be
kept comfortably warm

Well, you know, they never want

Well, now, here's d lady coming

He went to the back door and con-
fronted the man with o pleasant but
firm expression Of countenance.
Now, see hereY he said, with de-
cision. fThis thing has been going
on long enough. Mrs. Readyman
can't afford to wait your pleasure in
the matter Of soap or anything else.
This delay has caused her much an
noyance, and it is entirely inexcusable
on your paart. It isn't possible that
an establishment like the one for
which you work shouldn't be provided
with soap enough for all its custom-
ers. I see plainly that the fault lies
with you; you've neglected to give
the order. Now, I've only one thing
to say-if our trade isn't worth your
employers while, we'll go somewhere
else. I'm man Of few words! I'm
less that soap comes this morning,
Mrs. Readyman will order from Smith
and Brown in future"
The man looked confused, but said
nothing, while Readyman paused for
breath.
Come, come, said Readyman,

reason to give for your failure to
bring the soap?'

But suddenly | noticed that his
eye was mild and friendly. And as
I stood, mechanically repeating:
"Poor old fellow' he began to lick
my hand. Thereupon I saw that the
feroeious animal was Jim's pet dog

It was net yet dark when I reentered
| the orchard, but / decided to try for
the house when they were all at din
ner. This, I judged, would be in
about half an hour. During some
Of my less violent maneuyerings I had
been vaguely conscious Of distant
shoutings which seemed to call my
name. Evidently jim Ii had ID a been ieeekl feeeekl

postponed the search. And | was
singuIarly anxious to avoid meeting

I lay down in the cool, thick grass,

I could see the side Of the house, and
the door from which I had emerged.
This was my objective point. And
when the first star glimmered in the
east, I arose, erept forward, closely
followed by Jock. Presently, with .
protecting air, he lifted portion of
my trailing robe in his teeth, and
thus We crossed the yard and mounted
the steps.
I cautiously opened the door. The
corridor was empty. In a fierce whis-

but he wagged his tail and prepared

the order. We entered the house to-
gether. Far away there was rafting
Of dishes and a hum of conversation.
The long corridor was in darkness,
save for single light shining where
the stairs ran down. ] set about my
task light-heartedly enough. There
were only nine doors, or eight, omit

Then there came soand Of chairs

was ablaze with cruel brilliancy.
Next came the movement of many
people on the stairs. I made wild
