HE MUST LIVE.
A Patient Who Was Bound to L~"t Long Enough tO.Draw Ills
 Pension.

It would be in vain to attempt to describe the sympathy for the poor and suffering which William Stokes could throw into his voice, says his biogra- pher. One of the stories he nsed to tell is of peculiar interest, not only for its revelation of human kindness, but as proof of the power of the will in pro- longing life. 'l
 An old pensioner was patient of Stokes in the Meath hospital. His life was despaired of, and in fact his death was hourly expected. One morning. having the patients to care for, and believing that the pensioner was un- conscious and past help, Dr. Stokes passed his bed without stopping. The patient was greatly distressed and cried out:
 Don't pass me by, docther; you must keep me alive for four days"
 "We will keep you as long as we can, my poor fellow" answered Stokes; "but why for four days particularly"
 Because" was the reply, "my pen. sion will be due then, and want the money for my wife and children. Don't give me anything to make me sleep, for if l. sleep I shall die"
 On the third day after this, to the amazement of Stokes and the others, the patient was still breathing. On the morning of the fourth day he was alive and conscious, and on entering the ward, Stokes saw him holding in his hand the certificate which required signature. As the doctor drew near the dying man gasped:
 "Sign, sign!"
 The doctor quickly complied, and the man sank back exhausted, and within few minutes crossed his hands over his breast and said: "The Lord have mercy on my soul" and quietly breathed his last.-Youth's Companion

STAGE AND PLATFORM

VESTS Ministries.
One Of the greatest attractions
of the season, William IT. Vests
Big Jubilee Ministries, under the
direction of Sanford B. Ricaby.
will be witnessed at the Colun-
bus Theatre. Friday night
This famous organizatio n.
which represents the very best
and most refined in minstrelsy,
is bigger and more attractive
than ever before. An amuse-
ment enterprise ia these days
must be a colossus to draw the
masses. and William Fl. Vests
Big Minsmeis is a fitting exam
pie Of this. It would make half
a dozen Of the minstrel troupes
touring the country a few years
ago, and in fact some that are be.
fore the public now. As an ia
stance, where a few singers IN
the first part would at one time
suffice, Mr. Ricaby has as many
as fourteen of the most famous
and highest salaried vocalists
obtainable. The first part is set
in cerise and gold, and is
dream of beauty. The expense.
of this novel scene alone would
be sufficient TO equip the average
theatrical production, and it is
fascinating frame for one of the
most appetizing face menus ever
served TO discriminating theatre
goers. There are number of
unique features imported from
the great European cities, and
the most noted opponents of
burnt cork are with the organi-
cation for which the word 'Jub-
lice" is no misnomer, for it's com
ing means festival of Joy for all
who are fortunate enough to get
into the theatre to witness it's
innumerable features. The Law
alette Brothers and the Great
Kartelli are among the strong
headline features recently en-
gagged by Manager Ricaby. The
comedy end will be taken care
of by such artists as Tom Mack, |
Crawford and Manning, McDeY-

Use Of Both Hands.

There are comparatively few people
who can use both hands indifferently,
yet this is most sensible accomplish
ment. When one hand grows tired. the
other should be able to take up the
work, for thus more can be accom-
plished without undue fatigue. In the
mechanical departments Of German
schools the boys are obliged to do
much Of the work With their left
hands. They are taught to saw, plane
and hammer equally we'll with both
hands and to make large circles on the
blackboard first with one hand and
then with the other, says Home Notes.
Man, said to be the highest Of anil
mails, is the only one which cannot use
all his limbs with equal ease. Man
uses his eyes equally we'll and his
legs, but how few people can make
their left hands do even half Of the
things accomplished easily by the right.
And this state Of affairs is simply be-
cause the left hand is not trained. The
child is generally not allowed to let it
do its share Of work, but is made to
keep it idle while the right hand does
the greater part Of the work Of the
two.

SEED is NATURES GEM.
Il Is the One Priceless Jewel In Her
Treasure House.

Il Is the One Priceless Jewel In Her
Treasure House.
In natures great treasure house the
seed is the one priceless gem. Com
pared to it the great deposits Of coal,
the mines of silver and gold and Of
diamonds and precious stones are as
nothing. Man counts his wealth in
dollars and cents, in mining and rail
road shares and in houses and lands,
while his primal necessities are limited
to food and clothing. Without these
all other tokens Of afduence are void.
These indeed are the sources Of true
wealth, and the grass Of the field sup
plies them all directly or indirectly.
The cereal grains-wheat, rye, oats,
barley, rice and Indian corn-which
are the seeds of true grasses, are con-
vertible directly into food. The succu-
lent leaves and culm Of the wild grass
es furnish sustenance to millions Of
cattle, sheep and goats and are trans
formed by them into flesh, milk, wool
and hides, thus indirectly providing
meat and clothing. They also protect
the soil from food and drought and
landslide. Sending their fbrous roots
down among the shifting sands Of the
seashore, they bind the unstable par
ticles into mass so dense as to check
the erosion Of the waves. Thus grass,
the synonym Of frailty, is able to raise
its tiny green scepter against the de-
structive power Of the elements.-Out-

We Are All "Just Folks"

"My boy" said a man Of the state
Of Texas to his son, who was starting
out for a career in an eastern city
my boy, let me tell you something
which may be of help to you. You gef
up there, and you may see a heap OF
people who have got more money than
you have, a heap Of people who have
got more brains than you have and
more SUCCESS. Some Of them may even
be better looking than you are. Don't
you worry about that, and don't you
be scared by anybody. Whenever you
meet man who allows he's your su-
perior you just look at him and say to
yourself, After all, you're just folks
You want to remember for yourself,
too, that you're just folks. My boy,
after you have lived as long as I have
and have knocked around the World
you will come to see that that's all any
one of us is-just folks."-Field ana

4 Hidden Warming.

It is recorded in history that when
Darius, king Of Persia, invaded Scythia
the ruler Of the latter country, Idan-
thuras, sent him q message consisting
of mouse, g frog, bird, an arrow
and a plow. The Wisest men in the
army puzzled over the meaning of it.,
which was conjcctured to be that the
empire was surrendered. 1t was sup
posed that the mouse signifed the
dwellings, the frog the waters, the
bird the air, the arrow the arms and
the plow the land.
But it turned out eventually that
the Interpretation intended was that
unless Darius and his soldiers could fly
like birds, burrow like mice or betake
themselves like frogs to the water they
would never escape the weapons Of the
Scythians and make their way out Of
the country.

An Arab Spy Outwitted.

Once at least in Egypt the loss Of his
eye in an earlier campaign proved q
great service to Lord Wolseley and his
army. He could get no information Of
the enemy's strength OF position. An
Arab was captured prowlins around
our outposts and was brought before
him. 1t was ten to one the suller .fel-
low knew everything. Lord Wolseley
questioned him. The fellow answered
never word, standing stolid between
the two soldiers At last happy idea
struck the general. He said in Arabic:
"It is no use your refusing to answer
me, for I am wizard and at wish
can destroy you and your masters. To
prove this to you I will take out my
eye, throw it up. catch it and put it
back in my head" And, to the horror
and amaZement OF the fellow, Lord
Wolseley took out his glass eye, threw
it up, caught and replaced it. That
was enough. The Arab capitulated,
and the information he gave the staff
led to .ArabIS defeat.-London Globe.

influencing a Decision.

An old treasury department official
tells low the late Judge Gray decided
one OF the earliest customs classlfca-
ton cases to cone before the supreme
court Of the United States. The article
under consideration was Il preparation
Of fish which had been assessed for
duty as a sauce. The inferior courts
had given conflicting opinions as to
whether it really was sauce, and by
the time the issue reached the dignihed
supreme court the decisions either way
were voluminous enough to confuse the
most clear headed jurist.
Judge Gray examined the article, ac-
cording to the Philadelphia Ledger, but
could not make up his mind. His col
leagues were equally undecided. When
things came to a standstill it occurred
to Judge Gray that housewife would
probably be better qualified to decide
matter of this kind. He took sample
Of the article home to Mrs. Gray.
Nonsense; that's no sauce: it's fsh!'
she said, and the next day the supreme
court of the United States solemnly de-
cided the article was not q sauce.

Snenkiuc of Grain.

In the United States when one speaks
Of "corn," maize is always meant. In
England "corn" is applied to all cere-
ais, especially wheat. In Scotland
corn means oats. Germans use the
word in the same sense as the Eng
lish. Carlyle, being Scotchman, IN
writing Of Frederick the Great allows
himself to refer frequently to Fred
erick's meal CARTS" when, strictly
speaking, he should have said grain
carts" What the bread Of Frederick's
soldiers was made Of was wheat and
rye, not corn in the restricted Scotch
sense. In Scotland a "corndeld' is
only a field Of oats. Jameson remarks
that the term corn" in northern Eu-
rope is used to denote that species OF
the grain most in use in any particular
region. Hence in Sweden and Iceland
the term denotes barley

HEREDITARY RANK.
Precedence In England as 1t Struck
nm American Girl.


I knew a young American girl who,
going to England under the care Of an
ambassadors family and attending her
first large dinner party and looking
about her, selected as the guest in the
room who most interested her one man
Of distinguished aspect, whom she re-
solved to watch. When the guests
were ushered into the dining hall ac-
cording to the laws Of precedence she
found herself at the very end Of the
brilliant procession as one Of two IN
titled plebeians in the room, assigned
to the escort of the very man who had
interested her and who turned out to
be Samuel Rogers, the poet and patron
of art and the recognized head Of lit
erary society in England. She always
said that she secured two things at
that entcrtainment-namely, the most
delightful companion that she ever
had at dinner party and, moreover, a
lesson in the outcome Of mere hered-
itary rank that would last a lifetime.
Rogers poems are not now read so
much as formerly, but at that time the
highest literary honor man could
have was to dine with Rogers. He was
also one of the richest bankers in Lon
don and was very possibly the only
person in the room who had won for
himself reputation outside Of his
own little island, but he was next to
nobody in that company, and the little
American girl was the nobody.-Thom-
as Wentworth Higginson in Atlantic.

what Women once cou1dr,t Wear.

While we may pick and choose and
do exactly rs we please about our
clothes, there have been in times gone
by, in many countries and even in our
own, what were known us 'sumptuary
laws. These laws regulated expendl-
ture for dress, for ornament. for food
or for whatever refreshments you
might give company when they came
to take tea.
Among the first Of these sumptuary
laws was one made in Rome in 213+B.
C. and called the "Oppian law" 1t de-
clared that no woman should possess
more than half an ounce of gold, wear
q dress of different colors or ride in q
vehicle in the city or within 4 mile Of
it except on occasions Of public reli-
gious ceremonies. This law lasted only
twenty years.
Italy and France are the countries
where most Of these laws have been
passed, and some Of them read very
strangely. In 1880, in Italy, no woman
was allowed to wear a dress with fig
ures painted on it; she could only have
them embroidered. And in 134S, in the
same country, neither dark green nor
black dresses were allowed to be worn
in the morning.-St. Nicholas.

Cucine Jewels.

There was at one time q wonderful
emerald extant with white corners,
while all the rest Of the stone was Of
its proper relyety dark green hue. This
stone was used as an illustrative proof
that emeralds We're born white, but
ripened into the right color in the mine,
time working one Of its usual mira
cles on the crystal. Indeed, beryl, that
pale green stone exactly like the emer-
aid in all essentials save color, has
often been called the mother Of emer-
aid
Aouamarine is beryl-in other
words, an unripe emerald, not yet ma
tured into the proper tint, and Of this
the commoner varieties are by no
means rare. Yet it is to be doubted
whether these unrfpe stones would
ever mature into the true and lawful
lustrous emerald-London Queen.
