WORDS OF WISDOM.

Affinity is a word greatly maltreated.
Beauty apart from vanity is twice
beautiful.
Inspiration, like death, always comes
Unexpectedly.
Fast talk is an error, but slow tall;
drives friends away.
The eye Of an egotist has a tremen-
dous magnifying power.
Making haste slowly is the secret
Of every great achievement.
Children are often less carefully
tended than vines and plants.
Beware Of malice, it has been garbed
in the gown Of purest affection.
Everybody is against me-" gasps
the man who is his own enemy.
Precept and practice have the same
relative value as charity and almsgiv.
ing.
Love often turns to aversion, buk
rarely, indeed, does the reverse hold
true.
The softest thing In the world is
the hand Of g loving woman when it
caresses.
The philosopher finds wisdom to con-
sist in being able to make the best
Of the worst
Generosity often follows the posses
sion Of riches, but riches are slow In
coming to the generous.
Providence is often blamed (obliQue-
ly) for illness, when the sick one is
victim Of outraged .-Philadel-

Removing Poison from robacco.


A surgeon general in the German
army communicates to the Berlin Mill
tary Zeitung an account of a process
by which it is asserted that smoking
may be rendered a harmless amuse-
ment. BY the method described, which
consists in the treatment Of the tobac-
co leaves with tanin and a decoction
of origiganum vulgare before they are
made up into cigars, the nicotine they
contain becomes so transformed as to
render it harmless to the human sys-
TEN. According to the account given,
experiments have been made with the
prepared tobacco upon patients who
had the greatest aversion to tobacco in
any form, and invariably suffered from
nausea Immediately they began to
smoke. These, however, smoked in
succession each three cigars made Of
the prepared leaves, not only without
experiencing any inconvenience, but
without any alteration in their pulse,
breathing or temperature. Not the
slightest symptoms, in fact, Of nico.
tine poisoning was to be detected, al
though most exact and careful obser-
vations were made as the smokers
puffed their way through the - =
cigars

A melodramatic story of Nemesis
quite Oriental in color, comes from

men who knew Of the transaction way

terror she at last took refuge in a
solitary cottage, where she told her
story to the women, letting out also
the secret of the money. The hut
turned out to be that Of the murderers,
who on returning chagrined mt the
barren result Of their crime, were sur
prised to learn that the prize still lay
unsuspiciOusly within their grasp. The
girl was invited to rest for the night,
sleeping with another girl Of about
ber own age, the murderers intend

going in complete darkness for their

Strange Trees to Look at.

wildwood, the resort on the Jersey
.oast where the ceremony Of casting
howers upon the sea on Memorial day,
In memory OF naval heroes was in
augurated has a good reason for its
name, 1t is located upon an island,
which is separated from the main
land by Grassy sound. For about two,
miles a grove of trees, perhaps the
most remarkable in the word, fringes
the sound. The place takes its name
from the trees, which have been
shriveled and distorted into all kinds
Of fantastic shapes by the gales
which swept over it from the Atlantic
for centuries. The coast is completely
exposed to the full sweep OF the south
east and northeast storms, which In
the winter rage for several days at a
time. Some Of the trunks Of the
trees have twisted into numerals, let
ters of the alphabet and weird forms,
which give the grove the reputation
Of being haunted among some of the
negro servants and ignorant white
people who live in the locality. One
tree, which must be fully 50 years old,
has been bent over until it forms the
dgure 8, looking at it from one side,
while from another point of view it
Is a perfect oval. From the lower left
hand corner projects a branch which
startlingly resembles a snakes head
with the tongue sticking out. Two of
,he largest trees started to grow up
from the ground, then changed their
minds and bent downward, shaping
their trunks into the form of the let
ter w. Still another tree has grown
in the form Of the letter N, two
trunks starting from the same root
below ground and a third growing
from one to the other in a diagonal
direction. Another consists Of two
trunks running straight up and par
allel to each other At no less than
ave different points branches or stubs
have grown from one trunk into the
other, forming a sort Of natural lad
Ter, for a distance Of thirty feet from
The ground. The warm south casters
have brought nourishment to Wild
wood, and vines and plants grow
luxuHantly Some Of the grapevines
are Of mammoth size and, trailing
along the ground, have run up into
trees and expanded until they seem
ike immense boa constructors. Even
the upper branches Of the trees have
! been twisted into curious shapes, and
4 number have been cut out in the
form Of different articles Three of
them are almost exactly the shape Of
a triangle, a harp and pitcher In
walking through the grove one can
/ scarcely find a tree which has not
some odd form about 1t. A large holly
can be seen which really consists Of
two trunks twisted about each other
Each trunk Is fully foot in thickness,
and it is ssupposed that when young two
slips we're blown around in this way
and have gradually grown together.
The spiral separation can be traced
from the roots fully forty feet from
the ground. Philadelphia Record.
