The Reason n little Girl Agreed to n
Painful Operation.

There Is one little girl In Washington
who recently gave her parents an ex-
hibitlon of her nature for which they
were totally unprepared. The child
was cross eyed, and hes aflliction WAS Il
source Of extreme annoyance to herself
and family. An oculist was consulted,
who advised an operation to remedy
the defect, and 50 1t was decided to
take the little. one to n hospital In Bal
timore. The utmost secrecy was OBJ
served In the matter. Miss Annie had
once made great fuss about having n
tooth pulled, and, of course, II was to
be expected that she would enter seri-

She was taken to Baltimore under
the impression that she was going on

mother. When they arrived at the hos
pital, the mother took her daughter in
her lap and nervously broached the
real object of the trip, She set forth
In all its triple horror the embarrass-
ment which is the lot of the cross eyed
person, stating that the trouble would
increase MS she grew older,
"Now, Annie" she said finally. I'VE

FOUNDED ON A ROCK.

A traveller from New Mexico was tell
ing the other night of the wonders of

you have all heard the advice about
building on a rock, suppose" said he.
well, to see that injunction carried
out to the letter you should visit the
Acoma Indians. Their pueblo is built
on mesa rising 300 feet from com
paratively level stretch.
"They tell a funny story about how
thpsy came to land on the top of such a
huge rock. 1t seems that they were
formerly located on another rock, and
one day when they were all out work
ing along came a great rainstorm and
wiped off the map the only path lead
ing up to their rock city. Well, there
was nothing for 1t but to hunt up an
other rock, and they took a life lease
Of their present location.
Its picturesque place when one
gets up there. The houses are built of
adobe, and one hns to get out of doors
to get upstairs. You see, they have a
ladder up which they climb to get into
the second story.
"They have ways of their own of
cooking. They grind their -four In Il
trough with stones. They grind the
wheat as woman washes clothes and
spread 1t to dry on an old shawl. That
part of 1t may look simple, but | tell
you it takes some skill to spread a
thin batter over a redhot soapstone as
they do when baking. When 1t ia done.
they take hold of one corner and lift
1t Off as one would a porous plaster.
"But those people are past masters In
the art of making pottery. They have
boon at 1t for years and turn out some
beautifully colored water jars, bowls
and such things. Altogether they are n
picturesque people, and a visit to them
is well worth the climb up to their
rocky home If one happens to be in
that part of the country."-New York

How Foreigner Must Go About
Purchasing 1t In STEAMBOAT.
In Stamboul there are several book
stores the proprictors of which are ell
ther Persians, Arabians, Abyssinians
or Turks. Not in the frequented streets
are these stores, but In dark and mar.
row alleys. The books In them COM
prise various editions of the Koran,
translated into all the languages of the
orient; theological and historical trea-
tises on the Koran In the Turkish, Per
sian and Arabic tongues, annals which
clearly prove that all the sultans Of the
Ottoman dynasty were prodigies of
genius and sanctity; marvellous fairy
tales and stories OF adventure, which
are more or less fantastic and the sole
object of which is to prove that no one
should be considered honest, intelligent
or happy unless he is a Turkish Mus
sulman, unless he venerates the sultan,
unless he lives In STEAMBOAT all his life
without ever quitting 1t even for day
and unless he regards as utterly fabu-
lous all that he hears about Europe.
A Mussulman is forbidden to sell
copy Of the Koran, and therefore for
elgner who desires to purchase the sa-
cred book must proceed as follows: Go
into the bookstore, having on your face
as pious an expression rs possible and
say to the proprietor:
81 shall consider myself eternally in
debted to you If you will present me
with a copy of the Koran"
As | am devout believer" the pro
prletor will answer, II think II my duty
to assist any unbeiiever who desires TO
instruct himself in our law. Moreover,
you seem to be n serious man, and
am convinced that It Is not vain curl
osity which prompts you to obtain
copy OF the Koran, but n sincere desire
to study our religion. Therefore l am
willing to make you a present of this
copy, though / value 1t highly. for l
paid good price for It."
You will then put the book In your
pocket, and a minute or two later the
proprietor will say, ~ shall consider
myself eternally your debtor IL you
will make me present of -" nam
ing n certain sum. If you think the
price too high, you may bargain with
him, but you must take care not to
make the slightest allusion to the copy
of the Koran In your pocket, for In dis
posing of 1t the proprietor has clearly
broken the law, and 1t would not be
good policy for you to remind him OF
that fact

Students of household management
will learn with satisfaction that In 1865
many OF the evils now to be complained
of were distinctly recognized. Some OF
the more curious fines which were i'm
posed by country gentleman upon of
Tending servants were penny for leav-
ing door open, missing prayers, leay-
ing beds unmade after s presumably
n. M, and cooks could only have fol-
lowers Mt the rate Of penny fine for
each one. A curious custom seems to
have then existed that entree to the
house was denied during the family
meals, and as the fine for allowing a
breach of this custom was heavy 1t may
be presumed that the sin was esteemed
great.

A Scientific Discovery.

Kodol does for the stomach that
which it is unable to do for itself, even
when but slightly disordered or over
loaded. Kodol supplies the natural
juices of digestion and does the work
of the stomach, relaxing the nervous
tension, while the inhamed muscles of
that organ are allowed to rest and
heal. Kodol digests what you eat and
enables the stomach and digestive or
gans to transform all food into rich,
red blood. George M. Shamalia.
