THE GOUNOD'S ANNUAL.

Board of Governors Chosen-Work to
 be Continued.
 The fact that the Gounod society has not held any meetings this year and in consequence given any concert as has been the custom for many years past, and also that the Peoples Choral union recently organized, met with such success in it's undertaking and drew to it's membership many of those who had been enthusiastic in the work of the Gounod, caused the thought to be- come expanded into rumor that the parent organization, as the Gounod may we'll be called was about to become a thing of history. Such, however, is not to be it's fate. At the annual meeting held in the hall of the Young Mems Re- publican club last night there was an unusual amount of enthusiasm and generous attendance of members, In fact 1t is stated that the attendance last night was much larger than at any annual meeting in the past three or four years. Charles S. DeForest, who has always been moving spirit in the Gounod, and who is now it's president was in charge of the meeting. The hall

DR.. Shuts, an old soldier Of Wichita.
tells n grewsome story of how he was
once marked for death and how he got
religion. He had been badly wounded
and was in a big hospital near Wash
ington. He noticed that 1t was the
custom of the hospital laundry to close
at o'clock every night and that II
there was n patient in the ward who
was expected to die during the night
clean underclothes vere brought from
the laundry and put by his bed. One
night the nurse brought clean under
clothes and put them by DR.. Shuts
bed, and he knew then that his time
had come.
AS the hours wore on young wo-
man came TO him and offered to pray.
She was Ella Chase, sister Of the ia
nous Kate Chase Sprague and daugh-
ter OF Salmon +. Chase. secretary of
the treasury. The doctor was glad TO
have her pray. and he admits that he
did little supplicating on his own ac-
count. However. he pulled through
the night, and the next morning those
clean underclothes were carried away.

A SNAIL's TONGUE.
U II Like n band Saw With About
Thirty Thousand Sharp Teeth.

at is a fortunate thing for man and
the rest of the animal kingdom" said the
naturalist, that no large wild animal
hns a mouth constructed with the de-
vouring apparatus built on the plan Of
the Insignificant looking snail's mouth
for that animal could outdevour any
thing that lives. The snail itself is such
an entirely unpleasant. not to say loath-
some, creature to handle that few ANA
teur naturalists care to bother with it,
but by negccting the snail they miss
studying one of the most interesting OBJ
jects that come under their observation.
ANY one who has noticed n snail feed
ing on leaf must have wondered how
such n soft, flabby, Shiny animal can
make such sharp and clean cut incision
In the leaf, leaving an edge as smooth
and straight as If it had been cut with
knife. That is due to the peculiar and
formidable mouth he has. The snail eats
with his tongue and the roof of his
mouth. The tongue is a ribbon which
the snail keeps in coil in his mouth.
This tongue is in reality a band saw,
with the teeth on the surface instead
Of on the edge. The teeth are SO
small that as many as 10000 Of them
have been found on one snails tongue.
They are exceedingly sharp and only a
few OF them are used at time-not ex-
actly only a few of them, but few OF
them comparatively, for the snail will
probably have 1000 or 5000 Of them in
use at once. He does this by means of
his coiled tongue. He can uncoil as much
OF this as he chooses, and the uncoiled
part he brings into service. The roof Of
the mouth Is as hard as bone. He grasps
the leaf between bis tongue and that
hard substance, and, rasping away with
his tongue, saws through the toughest
leaf with ease, always leaving the edge
smooth and straight.
"By use the teeth wear off and become
dulled. When the snail finds that this
tool is becoming blunted, he uncois an
other section and works that out until he
has come u the end OF his coil Then
he coils the tongue up again and is ready
to start in new. for while he has been
using the latter portions of the ribbon the
teeth have grown in again in the idle por-
tions-the saw has been filed and reset. so
to speak-and while he is using them the
teeth In the back part of the coil are re-
newed. So l think I am right in saying
that If any large beast OF prey was fitted
up with such a devouring apparatus as
the snail has it would go hard with the
rest Of the animal kingdom. buffalo

year. Let me Try 1t for myself and see
what it really is"
Taking off his hat, for he was several
inches over six feet in height, he entered
the Enclosure, which he found to be little
more than three feet in length or width.
He gave orders that Mt q signal from
himself the door should be Immediately
opened. 1t was then closed and the steam
turned on.
He had been inside hardly three min
utes before the signal was given. Presi-
dent Lincoln had experienced enough Of
what was then regarded as necessary
punishment for American seamen. There
was very little ventilation, and the short
exposure to the hot and humid air had
almost suffocated him.
Turning to Secretary Welles Of the
navy department, the president ordered
that no such Enclosure as the sweatbox
should ever after be allowed on any YES.
sci flying the American flag.
It was not an, hour after this order had
been given before every sailor on every
ship in Hampton Roads had heard Of it.
The effect was most remarkable on the
older sailors, many OF whom had them
selves experienced the punishment Of the
sweatbox. Some Of them wept from joy.
But the good results of this act Of
President Lincoln we're not confined to
the American navy. Great Britain.
France, Germany and other European
countries heard that the sweatbox had
been abolished in America as inhuman.
One and all Of these nations in turn fell
into line, and today the sweatbox Is not
to be found on any vessel flying the flag
of civilized nation throughout the world

It may be of interest to point out Mt
this time that the most expensive cor
orction on record was that of the pres
cnt czar of Russia. Upward Of $751;
100000 was spent by the government
alone and fully another $1,000 600 by
the public authorities Of various Rus
sian towns. The representatives Of
other powers We'd with each other in
lavish OUTLAWS, and, counting the sums
spent by other persons, the coronation
Of Nicholas IL. cannot have cost much
less than S25,OO0,O00.
The coronation Of Car Nicholas l.
was also a very expensive affair. The
then Duke of Devonshire was the Brit
ish representative, and he spent fully
$l5O,0OO Of his own money in connec-
ton with it, The coronation OF George
". was the most expensive in English
annals, and this cost only S12, 500, 900.
OF this amount S125, 900 was expended
on the coronation robe and $225,000 on
the crown.
The cost of the coronation OF George
III. did not amount to half that Of the
coronation OF George ". The whole
cost Of the coronation OF William ".
amounted to only $4,000 and that Of
Queen Victoria to $350,00O.

THE NAGGiNG HABIT.
One of the Sins That Destroy tn,
Comfort of Home.

One of the Sins That Destroy the
Comfort of Home.
There Is one exceedingly disagree
able habit into which some people fall
without seeming to notice 1t. This is
nagging. They cannot say what they
have to say aud then let It alone, but
keep pecking and pecking at it OH
every occasion. and II occasions do not
arise naturally they make them. In
this nagging sarcasm or irony bears a
leading part. A thing may be said once
or twice as a pleasant raillery in q gen.
ial humor, but when repeated over and
over II ceases to be fun. 1t then cuts.
Sarcasm Is two edged tool; 1t cuts
and wounds the one at whom II is aim.
ed and 1t irritates and roughens the
one who uses it. 1t is a dangerous
tool for one to use who wishes to be
either kind or just. 1t comes easily to
the lips, and the intellect takes GER
tain kind Of delight in aptness, ingenu-
ity or sharpness. It's use grows on one;
at least the habit becomes SO hsbitual
that 1t is used unconsciously. Howev.
er good naturally one seems to take it,
1t is almost certain to leave a sting:
there is wound that hurts. Struggle
against It rs one will, there will often
be nm impression carried that some
part of it Is meant in earnest.
Too often do all of US wound the
feelings Of others by carelessness in
speech. We cannot too carefully guard
ourselves against the nagging habit.
1t rasps and wears out the best of dis
positions. Let us endeavor ever to
make our speech kindly even when
obliged to find fault. "a blow with a
word strikes deeper than blow with
sword" We shall never err By
speaking too kindly. These naggers are
often kind at heart and would not will.
ingly wound another. They have form
ed the habit ulconsciously and are not
aware of how frequently they indulge
IN that kind Of talk. 1t does not occur
to them that any one may take fur
Their meaning than they have meant
or that any part of it will be taken Sc
riously. 1t is unavoidable. however,
that this is so.
The nagging habit is the real reason
why some women find it difficult to re-
tain servants. 1t Is for the sharpness
OF their tongues that some really ex-
cellent people are avoided and disliked
in society People dread the tongue
lashings that slip so easily from the
lips and without real malice, but they
nevertheless cut deep. Let us put a
guard on ourselves and see that this
habit OF sarcastic speech and nagging
Is not ours The Chinese have a say
ing that "a mans conversation is the
mirror of his thoughts" there is truth
in It, If we habitually talk in certain
way, we grow TO be that way In char

There are eccentricities in character in
animals just as there are in men, and
every now and then you will find a very
funny beast. says Frank G. Bostock, the
famous animal trainer. He is foolish
idiot. and he knows it and will do one
funny thing after the other in sport and
funmaking which will conyulse everybody
about with laughter.
l have one dog who is born comedian
of this sort. When the training school is
working in the mornings or ON Sundays,
he is in some mischief constantly or doing
some droll pantomime that is side split
ting to witness. One of his favorite en-
beavers is to behave like a camel in
kneeling and rising. and he does it to
perfection. even TO chewing in the mourn
full fashion. Give him an empty bottle
and let him play drunken man. and he
will give a performance IL he is in the
spirit which will put almost any vaude-
vile artist to shame.-Frank Leslie's

When n rich man dies, his death as
sumcs an Importance in dollars and

his life with the prospect Of being laid
away for his long sleep at cost Of
not over 500 seems enormous. Though
the millionaire cannot take his wealth

Il considerable amount inside the doors

Hung Chang was buried recently was
one which that willy old diplomat had
had made to suit his fancy and had
carried around with him for many
years. It was beautifully ornamented
with gold and precious stones and was
valued ut $4,000. The widow Of
millionaire named Hitler lavished $780,
600 on the coffin in which she buried
the body Of her husband. The coffin
was Of exquisitely carved mahogany
profusely ornamented with solid gold
and lined with rare silk which cost
$G5 yard. Nearly all millionaires
spend great sums upon the mausole-

NDOn't Get Rich AGAIN.

charge Of servants. When adversely
came. the servants were discharged, and
the parents lived with the little ones.
One evening when the father had return

knee and, twining her arms around his
neck, said:
Papa. don't get rich again. You did
not come into the nursery when you were
rich, but now we can come around you
and get on your knee and kiss you. Don't
