He wa. n Propbet.

In Cheshire, England, there are leg
ends of a prophet, one Robert Nixon,
who is supposed to have lived in the
days of King James 1. His fame
spread, and the king sent for him, ac-
cording to the story. Nixon was great
ly distressed. He wept and mourned,
saying that if he went to London he
should be starved. When he arrived at
court the king, having hidden ring,
asked him to find it. Nixon replied,
HE who hideth can find" This great
ly struck the monarch, who ordered
him to be kept in the kitchen so that
there might be no fear of his being
starved. Nixon had great appetite
he could manage a leg of mutton at a
sitting-and he became such nuisance
that one day the cooks locked him in a
closet Here he was forgotten, and
his prophecy came true-he was starved
to death. The closet is shown in Hamp-
ton Court; but unfortunately for the
veracity of the tale, that portion of the
building was not built till the reign of
King William III.

BATH BRIEFS.

Never bathe when overheated.
Never bathe when exhausted and
feeling i'll.
Do not prolong the bath beyond a
reasonable time.
Wait more than two hours after a
meal before bathing.
In cold weather one should not go
out for some time after a hot bath.
Delicate people had better not battle
until several hours after breakfast.
The temperature of water for cold
bath should range from 30 to Go de-
grees.
If you are chilly and cold bath
makes you shiver it is not the best sort
for you to take.
Dry the body quickly, using a dry
bath brush or a Turkish towel to stim-
ulate circulation.
Opinions differ as to the relative
merits of cold or a hot bath. Nei-
ther kind will do for all. The individ-
ual constitution must be consulted.

KOREAN CURIOSITIES.

The Koreans love medicine. The
rich take pills of incredible size and
richly gilded.
There are no bankruptcy courts in
Korea. Once a Korean contracts a
debt he can never escape from it.
Korea is the only country where the
marriage certificate is equally divided,
one half being given to the husband,
the other to the wife.
Every Korean husband is answera-
BILE for the conduct of his wife. Should
she break any of the ordinary laws he
must suffer in her stead.
The most important duty of every
housewife in Korea is to keep alight a
perpetual fire. which is sacred to the
dead ancestors of the household.
No Korean may go upon the roof of
his house, not even to repair leak,
without legal permission and without
giving due notice to all his neighbors.
Paper enters largely into the con-
struction of every Korean house. The
interior is lined with paper. 1t has a
paper roof, paper floor cloth and paper
walls

To sare Ones Bacon.

Some think that the phrase ito save
ones bacon" arose at the time of the
civil wars in England, when house
wives in the country had to take ex-
traordinary precautions to save bacon,
their principal provision. from the
greedy appetite of soldiers.
In slang sense bacon stands for the
human body, and "to save ones ba-
con" is just to escape, so that when it
is said that man has saved his bacon
it refers to himself. as do the cognate
expressions, Spare my bacon" and
"Sell ones bacon" Thus in Carlyles
Schiller" we read, ITO the kaiser 1
sold my bacon, and by him good
charge of the whole is taken"
Others have less probably connected
the phrase with the times when heresy
was expiated at the stake, and man
was said to have saved his bacon
who had narrowly escaped being burn
ed alive.
The French have very similar
phrase, "Sauver son lard"

A GIANT OCTOPUS.
The Way n Thirty Foot Monster
Came to Be Captured.

The Way n Thirty Foot Monster
Came to Be Captured.
One of the most interesting objects
in the Natural History museum in
Trondhjem, Norway, is a large octo-
pus. E. R. Kennedy, the author of
Thirty Seasons In Scandinavia" not
only saw the octopus, but lHtle later
heard the story of the capture of 1t, as
related both by the fisherman whose
boat it attacked and also by two in
dependent witnesses. The fisherman
was leisurely rowing on calm day
close to the rock bound shore of one of
the fiords situated some fifty miles
north of Trondhjem. Suddenly long
and glistening arm swept over the
stern of the boat and remained there.
The fisherman, astonished at this I'M
wonted apparition, dropped his oars
and sprang to his feet. Like magic
another hideous looking arm shot over
the gunwale The boat canted. The
man, realizing that he was attacked
by some monster against which his
old fish knife was the only available
weapon, seized his oars and labored
with might and main to get his boat
into a crevice of the rocks, all the time
yelling for his mates, who were not
far off. He had to strain every nerve
to drag his hideous cargo after him,
for the suckers never relaxed. When,
half exhausted, he got the bow of his
craft within reach of willing hands, it
took the three men to haul it up q
slight incline, for the monster still
hung on, even over the bare rocks.
Then they belabored its head with
oars and clubs. Having safely secur-
ed 1t, they sent off to the nearest sta
ton and telegraphed concerning their
prize. 1t was at once purchased by
the museum and carried there after it
had been photographed. They stretch
ed its arms out before preparing it..
The longest were each five allen, or ten
feet four inches, in length. Over ali,
together with the great carpet bag
body, the monster measured thirty
feet across.

A PLUCkY LIEUTENANT.
He Was Insubordinate, but He Saved
His Vessel.

He Was Insubordinate, but He Saved
His Vessel.
Reuben Pinkham, native of Nan
tucket, made his first trip as third lieu
tenant on the ship Potomac, which
crossed the north Pacific, a region
little known to naval vessels in the
early thirties. Pinkham had been on
several whaling voyages, and was IA
miliar with those waters. The author
of 1.-The Island of Nantucket" says
that one day, near sunset, he had the
watch, while the commodore was pac-
ing up and down the deck.
Suddenly Pinkham gave the order,
Man the weather bracesY'
What's that for?" asked the COM
modore
1--WE shall have wind in moment"
The commodore went to the lee rail
and scanned the sea and sky. 81 see
no signs of wind,' he returned. Let
the men leave the braces"
The crew dropped the ropes.
Keep hold of the braces, every man
of your called out Pinkham, and the
men resumed their grasp. The com
modore flushed with anger and ex-
claimed in peremptory tones:
Let the men leave the bracesr' and
again the braces were dropped.
Don't any of you dare to drop the
ropes!' shouted Pinkham, shaking his
trumpet at the crew, who once more
took hold. Just then the wind dropped
entirely; not a breath stirred.
"Taut, taut Haul, all of your called
Pinkham, and the ponderous yards
swung to reversed position. The wind
came out of the opposite quarter and
struck the ship like sledge hammer.
The vessel staggered, shook the spray
from her bows and dashed ahead. The
commodore disappeared into his cabin
without saying a word.
Presently he sent the first lieutenant
to relieve Pinkham, requesting to see
the latter Immediately. When Pink
ham entered the cabin the commodore
said:
81 consider that am indebted to you
for all of our lives; but 1 will tell you
frankly if that wind hadn't come I
should have put you in irons in two
minutes"

How Sparks Are Formed.

Sparks are formed by the expansion,
under the action of heat, of air con-
tanned in the minute cells of wood coal
or other burning substance and also
by the evolution of gas in the same
cells. When the elastic force of the
imprisoned gas or air is greater than
the tenacity Of the material can hold
in check, then the small cells or cavi-
ties burst, and the flying splinters rise
as sparks. A sharp crack commonly
accompanies the explosion and con-
tinues as hundreds of these cells burst
in rapid succession. The quick flight
Of these burning particles acts as a
fan to increase the flame, and when
the substance burns so far that no
more fame is formed the remaining
carbon ash is kept in a state of in
candescence by the draft of air. When
all the carbon has been consumed the
spark dies out, as is evident if we
watch falling spark on a dark night.

The prisoner is led from his cell into
the presence of his seven wives, for

The Number Ten,

In arithmetic everything goes by
tens. Sociologists trace the human lik-
ing for that number to the ''pentadigi-
tate" or five fingered limb, which is a
characteristic feature of the entire
vertebrate family. A frog would
plump for the decimal system for just
the reasons that impel human beings.
Even horse, which now has only one
finger and toe on each foot, has hints
in his anatomy which show that his
ancestors had the pentadigitate ar
rangement. Biologists are much inter
ested to consider how the number
evolved was five. Why not four fin
gers or six or more? Somehow, more
than five would appear to be rather
more than one brain could give inde-
pendent attention to, while five are
more useful than four.

Magical Effects of the Sapphire.

To the sapphire has been ascribed
the following magical properties: That
it prevents wicked thoughts; that it is
such an enemy to poison that if put in
a glass with spider or venomous rep
tile it will kill it. st. Jerome in his
exposition of the nineteenth chapter of
Isaiah says that-the sapphire procures
favor with princes, pacifies enemies,
frees from enchantment and obtains
release from captivity. This gem was
sacred to Apollo and was worn when
inquiring of the oracle at his shrine.
1t was esteemed as a remedy against
feVers.
