AT all times the rose has enjoyed pc
culiar favor as a sacred flower. Mo
hammedan tradition says that when
Saladin captured Jerusalem he refused
to enter the shrine of the temple which
had been converted into church by
the Crusaders till the walls had been
thoroughly cleansed and purified with
rosewater. A similar story is told of
the Church of st. Sophia, at CONSTANT
nople. when transformed from a Chris
tan place of worship to a Moham-
medan mosque. The origin of the rose.
according to Moslem tradition, is that
the blood of the prophet sprang into
new life in this glorious crimson flow
er. To this day when Turk sees
rose lying on the ground he will raise
it tenderly, kiss it reverently and de-
post the frail blossom in some place
of safety.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is Catarrh. HalPs Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have

PELLETS OF SNOW.
How They Fling md Drift In the
Adirondack Region.


Adirondack Region.
On q good driftmaking day In the
Adirondacks the snow comes not In
the star shaped flakes that look so
pretty when portrayed on a page of the
dictionary. but in small pellets. These
pellets are in shape like tiny white
footballs usually. and they come roll
ing and tuInbling down wind as If they
had been kicked for fair" by the half
back gods of the gale. And yet while
they roll and tumble and bound they
lind lodging places, and as the idler
gazes he sees them pile up in wall on
the crest of the road cut. Higher and
higher grows the pile, forming at first
vertical wall, but before this has
risen three inches it is seen to overhang
the gulch.
Though round and easily rolled, these
pellets in some way fit to each other as
bricks would. until the overriding is per-
haps a fifth as great as the elevation of
the wall, and then. marvellous and i'm
possible as it would seem to the unac-
customed observer lip forms on the
crest of the wall, and soon it begins to
droop and hang down. Wider and Ion
ger it grows. farther and farther 1t
droops. until its shape is precisely like
the lip formed on a huge wave when
it breaks on a shoal water beach. Lips
that are ten feet wide and hang down
three feet clear of all. though but six
or eight inches thick where they join
the chin of the wall. are not uncom-
mon. BY what magic is it that these
frozen, oblong pellets that go bounding
along as merrily as footballs form into
such a shape as that? OF course If the
storm continues time usually comes
when the lips break off because of their
great weight. And then no new lip
forms to replace the lost one. The snow
merely drops over into the lee of the
wall and gradually fills the cutting
Scribner's.

BOOTHS Broken Leg.

Mudd was physician, and it was to
his house that Booth had ridden on the
night of his great crime There his
broken leg had been set, and there he
had been secreted for one day. The
doctor was an educated man of refined
and dignified manner He had never
quite recovered from his surprise that
any one should find fault with him for
setting a broken bone for q stranger.
He always asserted that he did not
know Booth and was not aware at the
time that Booth had committed a
crime. But Mudd had been an ardent
secessionist lie was accordingly SEN
fenced to Imprisonment for life
1t was a hard fate to be called upon
for professional services by wounded
desperate and then narrowly to escape
hanging for it. The trial and sentence
were Il terrible blow, from which Mudd
never recovered. He had left devoted
wife at his home in Maryland, and his
mental sufferings were SO severe that
he seemed always on the verge of in
sanity. He had at first been put to
work with wheelbarrow; but, having
never done any manual labor, he was
rapidly failing under the combined
physical and mental strain. For this
reason directed that he be transferred
to the prisoners hospital as nurse.
There he made himself exceedingly
useful, and there he might have re-
NAMED had not his inconsistencies in an
evil hour overcome his judgment While
d ship lay at the wharf he contrived to
get aboard and secrete himself in the
coal bunkers. He was of course dis
covered, and then he learned what he
did not know before, that no ship was
allowed to sail until it was ascertained
that every prisoner was in his place
He was Immediately placed in solitary
confinement, where he remained sever
al months. -McClure's Magazine.

there lies the cause for the deficit
in the postoffice department.
The railroads charge the ex-

government six dollars per hum
