THE TALE OF A TAIL.
Uncle Bill Shows That Horse Hair
VIII Turn Into a Snake in
the Water.

"Y' want t know how tibet old
legend started about horse hairs
turnin' inter snakes if " leave 'em
in water over night?" asked Uncle
Bill, vouchsafes the New York Sun.
oval, now, tibet old Legend as y
call it, is gospel truth.
jest you take a horse hair an put
it in bottle uf water an But,
say, didn't you ever hear uf how
Jedge Morton's old gray mare died?
Wal, wal, wal! There's a heap of
things you city fellers don't know
about, after all.
''Why, TIN jedge kept this mare
uf his own in tn COW barn. Twas a
ramshackle old buildin' an tn roof
leaked considerable. But tibet didn't
make much difference ontil one night
along in April when we had rain
storm.
Now I've seen some pretty likely
transforms in my time, but this here
pertic'lar one was calc'lated t. make
durin' dry spell.
Next mornin' when the ledge went
out t. tn barn t. look things over
he found tn old mare sound asleep
in two feet uf water. He Jest stood
there a-lookin', Monderin' how in tar
nation he'd get all TIL water outer
tn barn, again. when all uf a sudden
he gave a start tibet almost woke
tn mare.
.'Her tail all seemed t. be sort uf
a-squirmin' round like. He looked
closer, an sure as you're sittin'
there, every hair in tn pesky crit
tur's tail had turned into strappin'
big rattlesnake.
Naturally, tn jedge was sort uf
upset when he first discovered all
this. But when he got over his sur
prise some, he took tn matter philo-
sophically, an seemed pleased more'n
otherwise
Why, next winter he said. tibet

They finally grew so fat an heavy
on this fly diet tibet tn poor old mare
couldn't pull her own tail, let alone

Besides, snakes don't sleep TIL

At last the poor crittur died. Her

A WONDERFUL DOG,
He was n Pointer That Never Made n
Mistake, as Was Clearly
Proven.

They were talking about the almost
human intelligence exhibited by dogs
on some occasion. Several anecdot es
had been related of the wonderful in
tellect of CANNES when an army Of
ficer, who is connected with the cav
airy arm OF the service, stepped into
the ring and squared himself for n
good one. He is something of a
sportsman and knows good dog when
he sees one, so that his story was lis
tened to with more than usual interest
by his friends, relates the Washington
Star.
ut was down in Texas several wears
ago that l came across the greatest
dog l ever saw or heard Of" he said
''The animal belonged to a friend OF
mine and was the greatest quail dog
you ever saw. We have taken that
dog out day after day and he wouN
never go wrong, and would point quail
in the most unlooked-for places. One
day we were walking into town from
the army post where | was stationed
this friend of mine and l. and we had
the dog along. As we We're walking
along the road carelessly a we'll
dressed stranger passed us. No soon.
er had the man passed on than the dog
stuck his tail in the air and assumed
the attitude recognized as pointing
1t was some time before we were able
to determine what he was pointing,
but finally came to the determination
that he was pointing the stranger
which proved to be correct. We called
to the man and asked him if he had
any quail about him or if he had eaten
any quail, explaining why we asked.
He said he had nothing of the kind and
did not remember having eaten any
for some months. Turning to my
friend l said
"'Your old dog has gone wrong
"'Not a bit of it, he replied. That
dog is right and I'll bet you ten he is.

going to be settled, but took it up any.
way, and we continued on to town
We went to the biggest hotel in the
place to get some refreshments and
there saw the stranger we had met on
the road. My friend asked the clerk
who the stranger was, and the clerk
pointed to the register. As soon as my
friend saw the name he gave yell and
called me to come over there.
Give me your money, my boy
That dog knew what he was doing
when he pointed that man.
"To satisfy myself I glanced at the
register and saw the strangers name,
1t was Robert F. PARTRIDGE" Truly
that was the most wonderful dog ]

CARE OF TOILET BRUSHES.
A Simple Process for Cleansing TIL e m
Without Injury to Backs
or Handles.

All toilet brushes must be washed
spoiled. The bristles quickly become
loosened, the backs cracked, and a
valuable brush quite ruined in a very
short time, if carelessly done, says
the Boston Globe. The back of q
brush, no matter what it is made of,
should not be wet. For this reason,
the best thing for washing brushes
in is the toilet toothbrush dish 1t
is large enough to admit the bris-
ties, and when quite full of water
leaves the handle and back of the
brush outside. Cold water ought to
be used for cleaning the brushes, hot
water discolors them and makes
them soft. Fill the dish with tepid
soft water, and add teaspoonful of
spirits of ammonia. Then place the
bristles in the liquid, leaving the
backs free from wet. Move the brush
gently up and down to remove all
the dust. The Eartshorn removes all
the grease and dirt, and the brush
soon becomes very clean. Then rinse
in cold water, with a little salt add
ed, and dry by gently rubbing on a
clean soft towel. Place the bristles
in the open air, and dry them thor
oughly before returning them to their
places. The salt makes the bristles
tirmer, and the air whitens them bet
ter than when dried indoors.
Before proceeding to the actual
bleaching process, the brushes should
be well washed in soap and water,
and then thoroughly rinsed. In or
der to take out the Objectionable vel
lowish color that these brushes take
with wear, the following method may
be adopted in the home. viz, buy
from the chemist some hydrogen per.
oxide, ten volume strength. and di.
lutte it with ~ times the bulk; add
to the resulting liquor few drops
mo more) of ammonia, in order to
make it slightly alkaline. Leave the
brushes sleeping in this bath for
about "a hours, cold or at tepid
warmth. At the end of this time
the brushes should be bleached to
a good white, and they are rinsed
well in warm water and again washed
with soap. A few precautions should
be taken when using hydrogen per
come in contact with metal surfaces
during bleaching, or a good white
will not be obtained.

HAS A GHoUL-PRooF TOMB.
Body of "A Pennsy1vania Man In cased
in q Steel ShrOud That
Has a Lock,

The body of John NJ. Pursel, Of Will
Transport, Pa, lies intombed in a
"ghoul-proof" vault which he himself
designed and built two years ago, says
the Philadelphia North American.
For 80 years this man had been
haunted by an ever-present dread of
premature burial. Latterly there had
been added to this horror at the
thought of grave robbers and the
Dissertation of the tomb.
He read over and over again the
CHASTITY tales of Edgar Allen Poe that
dealt with this grewsome subject.
Accounts in the daily papers of body
snatching," such as recently Mortified
the citizens of Indiana, when the re-
mains of many young women were TAX
en- from the cemeteries to be sold for
dissection, seemed to fascinate him.
In his conversation he dwelt continu-
ously upon such dreadful themes.
But it was not in talk and appre-
hension alone that Pursel's dread ex-
pressed itself. He set his inventive
mind to work devising some practical
means whereby his tomb might be rem
dered inviolate and the danger of
suffocation in his coffin be minimized.
And az last he devised most perfect
apparatus for the reception of his own
body and those OF the four relatives
nearest to him in kinship.
The vault stands in Grandview ceme-
terry; its front of solid masonry care
fully laid up and cemented. 1t juts out
prominently from the hillside, which
rises up behind it crowned with forest
trees that look tall against the sky
line. The five receptacles for the dead
are in row about three feet above
the ground, each having an opening
some two feet in diameter. These com
partments are lined with solid plates
Of east iron and each extends back
nine feet into the hillside. Iron pipes,
which terminate in a central venti-
i lator above, run from each of the COM
partments, insuring ventilation. Any
moisture that might in the course of
time accumulate upon the metal is
carried off by carefully planned sys-
tenn of drainage pipes.
Instead of a coffin, Mr.. PursePs body
was wrapped in a metal shroud-re-
posing upon mattress and pillow.
| The air circulating through the COM
partment is not excluded by it, and
should the occupant after burial re-
turn to life it would allow perfect free
dom to the members of his body.
Mr.. Purcel's body was placed in the
, central compartment. 1t was the work
of few moments to apply the steel
/ head to the vault and bolt and seal it
| SO that it could not be removed by any
normal force.
This head is circular, and is in two
sections, one within the other. The
inner part is fastened to the outer by
means of a combination lock, which
is not visible from the outside.
Should the inmate revive he could, by
turning the knob which works the
combination, loosen the inner part
from the outer and gain his freedom at
once.
A few years ago Purcell visited a
crematory and would Rave arranged
for the burning of his body after
death, but his wife and family OBJ
jected. Then he conceived this novel
tomb, which, with the aid of his son
| Thomas he afterwards built.
Purcell was rs years old when he
died of apoplexy after the third
