THIS TOAD WAS WISE.
Senator Hoar Tells of the Venerable
Batrachian's Adventure with
q Big Spider.

Among the favorite stories Of Sem
ator Hoar is a tale of a remarka BILE
toad, possessed of intuitive knowledge
of antidotes.
81 was out in my garden one day.
said the senior senator from Massa-
chusetts, land noticed toad hopping
along toward the veranda. At the
edge of the low flooring was spiders
web straight across his path. Mr..
Toad didn't observe it and, plump, he
landed squarely in it. The uncere-
monious and burglarious entrance nat
urallv prosoked the resident spider,
who was strongly of the opinion that
his home was his castle. Accordingly,
he proceeded to give the toad most
vicious bite. Instantly the toad hoped
back on the lawn, found bit of plan-
tain leaf and chewed it. Then back
he hoped and hit the same obstruc-
ton, with the result that he got an
other bite. Seven times he repeated
the attempt, each time going back
to the plantain for an antidote for
his wounds. At last he succeeded in
aemolishing the spiders web and
hoped on his way rejoicing"

Handkerchief Gift.

The news that the women at Dallas.
Tex. are angry because Mrs. Roose-
welt sent them ten-cent cotton
handkerchief in responsefto their re-
quest for a gift which they might
sell at public entertainment for the
benefit of the local kindergarten has
apparently made little impression at

was obtained as to the exact quality
or style of this handkerchief, bu.
the fact is that the applications for
such gifts during the winter season
amount to at least 100 every week.

granted by the presidents wife.
There is reason to believe that the
Dallas women are not alone in their
disappointment over the fact that
Mrs. Roosevelt has not responded to
their appeals by something at least
as valuable as gold spoon or dia-
mond necklace.
Yet the presidents salary is only
$4,000 year. and his expenses are

PERSONAL AND IMPERSONAL.

A map of Delaware county, N. L..

signature, has been discovered in the
possession of famil ly at San Ber-
nardino, Cal.
Asked when he had last washed, a
small boy told the Creditor (England)
magistrates that he. had a bath last
summer. The father was ordered to
prison for his neglect.
A St. Louis girl drank quantity OF
lye, and the alkali burns, in healing,
caused the membranes of the oeso-

her blood until she became sufficiently

enabled her to swallow after three
years.
Miss Penelope Azalea Smith is q
bright child aged eight years living in
St. Augustine, Fla. Awaiting her
bridal day is a gown 800 years old
which has been used as wedding dress
by Is of her ancestors. Fifteen Pene-
lopes, one after another, have been
married in this regal old gown of silk,
and it is all ready for Miss Penelope
No. 16 when she has grown up. Keep
ing company with the robe are some
rare jewels that belonged to the first
Penelope and are very valuable. A
string of pearls which has been worn
by Is brides is included in the collec-

Justice of the Peace George F. Sey-

young couple entered carrying with
dence of desire to be made one. The
justice asked the young mans name.
"Richard Mansfield" was the reply.
and his honor stared for moment as
he reflected that the noted actor must
be much older than this would-be
bridegroom. Then he asked the girls
name. "Maude Adams" she timidly
responded. The justice nearly fell out
of his chair, but recovered when in
formed that the pair lived in suburb
of Hoboken. Then he tied the knot,
pocketed his fee and kissed the bride.

LOOKING BEYOND.

Am growing old when my heart can wake
To the JOY of a perfect day?
Can happily laugh as the wlite clouds
break,
And scatter and float away?
Not growing oid-oh no! oh no!
Rut nearing the time when the gleam and
the glow
of an endless day will i,lunaine me SO
That youth shall be mine alway.
Am / growing old when the song OF bird
Can thrill me with tremulous joy.
Can wake In my heart music not heard
By others. which naught can destroy!
Not growing old, but nearing the bound
or a wonderful land. where the echoing
sound
of the soul of all music forever is found.
And happiness knows no alloy.
Am growing old when the dews can weave
A spell to dazzle my sight,
And charm my heart till they thrill and
leave
In nv breast a dream of delight?
Not growing old, but nearing the shore
Where friends, now parted. shall part no
more,
when Light that is fade,ess shall cover
me Ger
Till 1t leaves no shadow OF night.

USE OF IMITATION JEwELRY.
Growing Demand for Artificial BFils
liants In Fashionable Finery
Of Modern Times.

The range of jewelry has widened
of late to include a host of knicknacks
which, though not of precious stones
or metals, are SO ornamental that even
| the wealthy consider it admissible to
wear them.
! Belt slides and buckles, skirt clasps,
hair fasteners, hat and veil pins and
various safety pins for attaching
sashes and rosettes, are among those
essaries. And wonderful things are
being done in the creation and imita-
tion of gems for this description, OF
jewerry, says the New York Sun.
The clippings and fragments Of
genuine stones and Of semi-precious
stones are fused together in the chem
lists fires and nodded into brilliants
for the modern demand. Science is
making the most of every sort of
vegetable, animal OF mineral matter
which can be made to glow, sparkle
or take on color to the desirable de-
gree.
All the brilliant green stones, peri
dots, emeralds, olivines are success
fully duplicated. The foundation is
the paste which forms the basis of
mock diamonds.
The fine chemical emerald in the
hat pin that holds on tongue OF
rich lace or fur gives out ray al
most as pretty as the gem it mocks.
Moreover it is comfortable posses
sion, for the wearer, for she needs
not always be anxious as to its
whereabouts when not in use.
The leaping coal-dre lights in gar
nets, carbuncles and rubies are simu-
lated ingeniously in the artificial
gems. Turquoises afford pleasing
models for imitation. The duplicates
show the soft clear color that is
like a feck of heavenly blue sky
brought to earth.
The jacinth, hyacinth, amethyst and
aquamarine, the crystal, clear stones
whose 'coloring seems to depend on
lights that come from the bottom,
are readily counterfeited; and the
limitations make satisfactory tops for
vinaigrette bottles, the heads of PEN
ellis and slides for girdles. They also
work in satisfactorily for parasol
handles and for fancy match holders
and cigarette cases.
OF all the gems pearls are ikeliest
subjects for the duplicator's art. Even

oyster from which the pearlis evolved.

existing between them, however, was
a source of intense disquiet to the

forbid her to receive him at all. This
was an absurd prohibition, which it
was quite impossible for her to obey,
no less on her husbands account
than on that Of her own sense OF

STRANGE MEANING OF cup"
Only One of Many Words in the Eng

n Relative significance.

speaking of the relative meaning
of words" said an observant man, ac-
cording to the New Orleans Times.
Democrat, reminds me of curious
calculation made the other day in or
der to demonstrate that the word up
had no absolute meaning except in
so far as it meant out from the earth 8
surface, or from the center of gravity.
The illustration is very simple one,
but will teach us very complex les
son, and one of much value. 1t is $4,000
miles around the earth. There are
$3.50 feet in an American mile. A rope
stretched around the earth would have
to be about 13s, 100000 feet in length
Suppose we assume thatwe can wedge a
man of ordinary size into every foot OF
this surface on a line around the earth,
and suppose we should ask each one
of them to point up. Manifestly they
would point in different directions
in Just 132. ZOO, 600 different directions
and yet each man would be pointing
up. Exactly one-half of the men, that
is, 66,000,ooo, would be pointing in di-
rectly opposite directions. For in
stance, there would be two men on
every straight line through the center
of the earth, and, being on directly op-
posite sides of the earth, they would
point in directly opposite directions
So one-half of the ups would be differ
ent from all the rest. No two ups
would be the same. Suppose we stick
peg in every inch of the distance
with the point extending straight up,
Here we would have 1854. .0O0, 600 up,
with the same differences observed in
the other illustrations. If we squeezed
the spaces down to the width of an or
binary pin we can still see that there
would be a difference between the up
of any one point, and the up of every
other point, and we could carry this
thing on and on until the difference be-
tween the points would be so fine, so
utterly infinitesimal that it could not
be observed by the heaviest and most
powerful microscopic instrument. It
would still be difference just the
same. Suppose you should take the
whole surface of the earth and follow
out the same idea, how long do you
suppose it would take you to calculate
the number of possible ups in the
earth's surface? Much longer, dare
say, than you would care to devote to
the task, and if you should do the
work you could not announce the re-
suit of your labors in intelligible
terms. The science of mathematics
could not make the finding plain
enough for the average man. All of
which sounds very foolish. But it isn't.
up is only one of many words in the
English language which has no more
than relative meaning. We under
stand, of course, what is meant by up
But few persons ever stop to think
that the word has only relative
meaning, and that there are many
ups more ups in fact, than we can
conveniently count"

FEWER PELTs FROM MAINE.
Decrease in the Quantity of Fur OBJ
tanned by Trapping, and
the Cause.

For nearly 20 winters past have
made fur-buying trips to Mainei,' said
a buyer for New York wholesale fur
house, according to the New York
Sun, land every trip makes the fact
more apparent that the trapping
grounds there are growing smaller
and smaller year by year. Besides the
natural causes to which this is due,
the trappers are now placed under
such restrictions by the laws Of the
state that their field of work is limited,
even in the region where alone it can
be pursued with profit.
'When began buying furs in Maine
the trappers had a free. field and a
wide one on the public or wild lands of
the state, as well as on those belong
ing to individuals. Now he cannot le-
galy set trap, even for a muskrat,
on any of the state lands without OBJ
tanning license from the game COM
missioners.
''Hecannottrapo on individual tracts of
the wilderness unless he obtains the
consent in writing of the owners, asthe
commissioners will not give him a per-
nit without such written consent. AS
there are great many private owners
OF land in Maine nowadays who will
not allow trapping, large areas of the
best country for the trapper are for
hidden him.
'Thus the hunter cannot trap beaver
at all unless he can obtain the written
permission of the commissionersin in adj
dition to his license, and I haven't
heard of any instance for several years
in which any such permisson has been
granted.
''The headwaters Of the Androscog-
gin, the Penobscot, the Kennebec, the.
ST. John and the wild regions drained
by their numerous tributa ries are now,
and have been for many seasons, the
chief sources of supply for furs in

The Fatal Blow |
|&!$Hs&95$9s$Hs$Hs$H5$H]

THE name of Castlereagh is one
of the proudest in the annals of
English history, yet there is a tragic
chapter, and closing chapter, too,
wherein we have depicted the fact
that the passions, and the results to
which they lead, are confined to no
single class of social life, but are
common to high and low alike.
In his old age the proud Lord Cas-
tlereagh espoused beautiful lady
young enough to be his daughter,
and whose extreme loveliness of per-
son was the theme of her day,
Though proud of this extraordinary
attractiveness, and himself fully ac-
knowledging it's power over the eye
and the heart, yet it was destined
to be source of endless disquiet and
misery to the proud old noble. He
could not but realize within himself
the great incongruity of their union
and this soon inspired him with
doubts and suspicious. The fact
that these were OF the most unjust
character mattered not to him. The
"fine mad devil of jealousy reigned
In his breast, and no reason could
exercise the fiend.
He felt ashamed of this, for he re.
allied that no passion is more base
or seeks more to hide itself. 1t is SO
tgnominious that we blush to ac-
knowledge it even to ourselves
passion which must be either stran'
gled in its birth, or it will soon as
sumo such strength and proportions
as to be even too powerful for trutl
itself. Lord Castlereagh thought it
impossible that he could fix the at
tention and affection of his wife, and
equally impossible that she could re-
main insensible to the attentions OF
younger men, so he set himself the
unwelcome task of watching her.
Lady Castlereagh was a person OF
lofty character, great pride Of birth
and, above all, incapable of premedi'
tated wrong or falsehood. But she
found her position to be a very try.
ing one. for she could not be blind
to the jealousy of her husband. Con.
scious, however. of not meriting his
disapproval in the slightest degree
she maintained the even tenor CT her
life, trying to ignore the weakness
of her husbands character. Such
beauty could not remain unrecog-
nized. That was not to be expected,
but, beyond the point of true re.
spect, no admirer ever paid homage
60 her ladyship.
Among the personal friends OF
both herself and her husband was
the duke of Cambridge, whose adj
miration, always open and respect
full for Lady Castlereagh, was yet
entirely undisguised, as it was taint-
cd by no sentiment which rendered
